Race Has Meager Representation In Inauguration First in Local Circulation. The Washington Tribune Washington's Best Advertising Medium. Vol. 4 No. 42 MARATHONERS TOLD COLOR IS BAR (By H. Scott) As many of us stood on the various streets Tuesday morning waiting for a glimpse of the participants in the marathon race staged by The Washington Post, few of us realized that another discrimination tragedy had been written. Little did we think that The Post would foster an athletic event with President Coolidge as the guest of honor, and lower the bar on men of color. When no colored athletes were seen in the parade we concluded that none had tried to enter. But such is not the case. Two colored athletes—William Fauntroy and William Anderson—with long distance running ambition and experience, made application to compete in The Post's marathon on the strength of the announcement to that the race was open to all. They clipped a coupon from The Post and mailed it to the Sports Department, and in return received an entry blank for the race and an application for membership in the Amateur Athletic Union. The A. A. U. blank was filled out and along with 25 cents mailed to the chairman of the registration committee in Baltimore. In return Anderson and Fountry received membership cards in the A. A. U., the former's card was numbered 259 and the latter 272. Their numbers were put on the marathon entry blanks and reutred to the Post. No other requirements were necessary according to The Post, to qualify them for the marathon. Neither the A. A. U. nor marathon application blanks made any reference to color. In fact Anderson stated on his blank that he wanted to represent the Dunbar Night School while Fauntroy put the Buffalo Athletic Club down as his club. On February 8th, The Post announced a 5-mile trial race at the Georgetown University track. The colored entrants believing the race an open affair, went to the University, were allowed to dress, and then politely told by The Post's Sports Editor that the race was under the auspices of the Aloysius Club and furthermore that Georgetown officials would not consent for them to run over their track on account of their color. The Post's representative told them that he would consult the runners and see if they objected to them competing in the marathon, and notify them. No word was received from the Sports Editor of The Post and on the morning of the race, Anderson and Fauntroy, journeyed to the House Office Building, as per instructions in The Post, donned their running togs, went before the doctors who put their official physical examination "O.K." on them with the phrase "You are fit." While they were making their way to the checker room to receive an identification number, the final act in the tragedy was written. They encountered The Post's Sports Editor who greeted them with these words: "Sorry, you boys can't run. The boys object and you can't break up my race." The colored runners could possibly have raced anyhow unofficially but they quietly withdrew. BARRY FARMS ASSOCIATION TO MEET Barry Farm Citizens Association will meet at St. John M. E. Church on Stanton road, Southeast, Tuesday, March 10th at 8:00 p.m. Maj. William Barrett, Divisional Commander of the Salvation Army will speak. The association will make plans for a fitting celebration to the great court victory won in getting streets authorized for his section. Published Weekly INSULTED BEGAUSE OF THEIR COLOR Anderson and Fauntroy SOUTHERN AID SOCIETYMAKES GREAT RECORD The annual statement of the financial condition of the Southern Aid Society of Virginia, Inc., which is published elsewhere in this paper, shows the remarkable growth of this company. This statement was made to the department of Insurance of the District of Columbia this week according to law. This statement shows the Southern Aid Society to be one of the strongest, if not the strongest corporation owned by Negroes anywhere. On a fully paid in Capital of $30,000, the company shows assets over and above expenses and liabilities of all kind, a net surplus of $679,550.70. The total gross income last year was $850,236.60. This income came from the state of Virginia and the District of Columbia alone as the company does not operate in any other places. This income also came from sick and accident policies exclusively as this is the only kind of policy issued by the company, therefore, when these facts are taken into consideration, this record is all the more remarkable. The records of the company show that the Society has paid over $3,600,000 to policyholders for sick, accident and death benefits during the period of its operation, which has been over thirty-two years. It has through the practice of the greatest economy and good judgment, accumulated $700,000 in stable assets consisting of cash in banks and trust companies in excess of $170,000; nearly $500,000 invested in real estate of the highest character in the various cities of the state of Virginia and District of Columbia—in fact, the Southern Aid buildings in the larger cities are usually the most modern and best constructed buildings owned by the race in these places. The company invested over $100,000 in mortgages on homes and properties of members of the race and in many instances, it has saved such persons or institutions from complete ruin or loss of their holdings. The stockholders, directors, senior and junior officers and field staffs represent the highest type of men and women that the race affords.

SATURDAY, MARCH 7, 1925 Federal Finance Corporation Is Organised Here By Local And Out-of-Town Race Men APPROPRIATES $10,000 TO TEAR DOWN BEACHES ON TIDAL BASIN As a final sequel to the bathing beach controversy the Senate passed during the last hours of the 68th Congress, a bill appropriating $10,000 for the removing of the white and colored bathing beaches from the Tidal Basin. With the passing of this appropriatin all hopes for a beach on Tidal Basin for citizens of the District went a glimmering. At present there are no plans for providing facilities during the coming year. HOWARD GETS $221,000 FOR NEW MEDICAL BUILDING The Senate agreed to the final conference report on the Interior Department appropriation bills Monday afternoon, assuring Howard University of an appropriation of $370,000 toward the construction of a building for the medical department. Political Strategy The item for the medical building was inserted by the House as an amendment to the Senate amendment, which provided the sum of $221,000 toward maintenance and operation of Howard University. The Senate amendment was put in the Interior Department stricken out in the House on points of order by Representative Byrnes, Democrat, of South Carolina. Senator Reed Smoot, Republican, of Utah, was in charge of the bill in the Senate. Representative Louis C. Crampton, Republican, of Michigan, was in charge of the bill in the House. Senator Overman, Democrat, of North Carolina, protested against the item of appropriation for the medical building when the question of agreeing to the conference report came up in the Senate. He contended that the Congress had no right to appropriate the money of the taxpayers to private institutions. The appropriation was justified, according to Senator Smoot, upon the ground that "there was a closer connection between the Government and Howard University than there was between any other private school and the Government." Public Service The ranks of Democratic Senators split on the question of the Howard University appropriation. Senator Copeland, of New York, said that he was glad that "Howard University has succeeded in getting that amount of money. I can think of no public service which could be rendered which would be of more importance; and I congratulate the conferees that the item remains in the bill." When Senator Bruce of Maryland spoke in favor of the item, he drew the fire of Senator Glass, of Virginia. Race Discrimination Senator Glass contended that this appropriation constituted race discrimination. "What is this but racial distinction?" He asked. "Does the (Continued on page 6) The Federal Finance and Loan Corporation, the proposed organization which was first announced in this paper about three weeks ago, was completely organized here Thursday by a group of prominent local and out-of-town business men. The new corporation will be chartered in Delaware and will have a very large capitalization but will not have any stock for sale. The company will do a general brokerage and financing business of a national scope. The resources of the new company are sufficiently ample to permit it to handle any deal regardless of the size of the loan. At its meeting Thursday, the following officers were elected to head the Federal Finance and Loan Corporation during the coming year: Atty L. Melendez King of this city, president and general counsel; S. H. Dudley, theatrical magnate of this city, treasurer; Charles E. Mitchell, certified public accountant and banker of Charleston, W. Va., auditor; and W. H. C. Brown banker and investment expert of Newport News, Va., secretary and general manager. The company expects to secure quarters and open for business as soon as the necessary details of its organization can be completed. LAYMEN GIVE RECEPTION TO BISHOPS A public reception was tendered the Board of Bishops of the A. M. E. Zion Church Tuesday night at John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, corner 14th and Corcoran Streets, Northwest, by the A. M. E. Zion Laymen's Association of Washington. Attorney S. M. Dudley was master of ceremonies. Musical numbers were furnished by vested choir of John Wesley. "Inflammatus" and "Listen to the Lamb" were exceptionally well rendered. The Bishops were welcomed to the city on behalf of the ministers by Rev. Charles L. Russell, President of the Ministers' Alliance; on behalf of the citizenry by Prof. Neval Thomas, President of the local branch N. A. A. C. P. Bishop George C. Clement, President of the Board of Bishops, of Louisville, Ky., responded in behalf of the Bishops. Bishop Clement, who is one of the leading intellectuals in the church connection, held his audience with them to use the church as an open door to all the activities necessary for racial uplift and progress. CITIZENS,WIN LONG FIGHT The District Commissioners last Friday approved an award of $75,377 in the largest single condemnation proceedings ever handled by the District Surveyor's office. The amount was awarded by a jury in Justice Hitz's branch of the Supreme Court of the District to owners of property which had been condemned to permit cutting streets through the Barry suburb which lies adjacent to Anacostia. President Elzie S. Hoffman, Secretary Henry Braxton of the Barry Parm Citizens Associations, took an active part in the proceedings which required two years in court. PROMINENT CITIZEN DIES M. H. Calvin Coolidge Outlines His Policies In Inaugural Address Before An Immense Crowd Charles E. Lane was born in Greenville, Tenn., sixty-six years ago. At the age of nine his parents moved to Ashville, N.C., where he lived until coming to Washington thirty-six years ago. He married his surviving wife, nee Miss Virginia M. Greenlee in 1844 at Ashville. To this union four children were born of whom three survive: Lottie R. Lane, Orlean Lane Manly of Philadelphia, Pa.; Charles E. Lane, Jr., and Richmond Lane. Besides other relatives, Mr. Lane is survived by three sisters and a mother who lives in Ashville, N.C. He was a member of Prince Hall Lodge, Masons and Calvary Episcopal Church. He was founder, organizer and first president of the Universal Development and Loan Company which is the holding company for Suburban Gardens. McGuire had charge of the funeral. Among the out-of-town people who came here for the funeral were Dr. Sebastain and Prof. Jas. B. Dudley of Greensboro, N.C. Office: 920 U St., N.W. RUNN CITIZEN DIES E. LANE, Sr. Outlines His regal Address Immense Crowd In his inaugural address Wednesday, President Coolidge made no declaration of policy toward the Negro. Rather, his keynote was Americanism. He dwelt largely upon international understandings, greater economy and lower taxes. An Era of Prosperity In current conditions he pointed out much that is satisfifying and encouraging. He noted that since the world war "we have sufficiently rearranged our domestic affairs so that confidence has returned, business has revived, and we appear to be entering an era of prosperity which is gradually reaching into every part of the Nation." He reviewed concisely the development of our national consciousness from time when we first became an independent nation through the Great War. In all of these experiences, he declared, "We have been, and propose to be, more and more American. We believe that we can best serve our own country and most successfully discharge our obligations to humanity by continuing to be openly and candidly, intensely and scrutinously, American. If we have any heritage, it has been that. If we have any destiny, we have found it in that direction." Depreciating the propaganda of pacifists and militarists, he reminded the nation that we are united with all humanity by the inseparable bond of the common brotherhood of man, the highest law by all our being. He expressed the determination of the nation to promote peace through friendliness and good will, mutual understandings and forbearance. He declared in favor of frequent conferences and consultations in international relations, the peaceful settlement of disputes by methods of arbitration, and adherence to the Permanent Court of International Justice. "In the economic pressure to which people find themselves subjected," he sees the greatest dangers to peace. He declared that "Peace will come when (Continued on page 8) Price B Cents DETACHED MEN ONLY NEGROES IN BIG PARADE President Coolidge was inaugurated the 30th President of the United States at noon Wednesday. His inaugural ceremony and parade was one of the briefest in the history of the Republic. Organizations and political clubs were conspicuous by their absence from the parade. Heretefore, this part of the procession has been a big feature. The Negro race's representation in the parade was the smallest and least representative in years. The only Negroes in the parade were two noncommissioned cavalry officers, and a detachment of colored infantry from the Washington Barracks and a detachment of cavalry from Fort Myers. These soldiers are either stationed at Washington Barracks and Fort Myer, detached from their regular units and therefore, did not represent any of the Negro army units. The two non-commissioned cavalry officers rode near the head of the parade. The visitors' list was mostly made up of people who lived nearby or politicians who came here primarily on business. ZION BISHOPS - RECEIVED BY PRES. COOLIDGE ZION BISHOPS - RECEIVED BY PRES. COOLIDGE The Board of Bishops of the A. M. E. Zion Church held a one-day session here last Tuesday, March 3rd. At 12:30 Tuesday, the Bishops and General Officers of the church were received by President Coolidge at the White House. In the session here the Bishops took up the report of the Committee on the church Hymnal and Discipline, together with the strengthening of the Missionary fields of the denomination. On Wednesday morning the Board of Trustees of Livingstone College held a meeting jointly with the Board of Bishops. The board discussed the matter of selecting a successor to President D. C. Suggs of Livingstone College who has resigned to take effect at commencement this year. It is understood that Prof. J. Phelps Foundation, and Dr. J. W. Eichelberger of Chicago, Secretary of the Religious Education of the Denomination, and Prof. W. J. Trent, of Atlanta, Ga., are the men now principally being considered for the position. The Bishops announced at the close of their meeting that their next meeting will be held in Norfolk, Va., the first week in August, 1925. PROF. J. C. BRUCF. PRESENTED WITH WATCH The teachers and principals of Division Thirteen of the Public Schools, on last Monday, March 2nd, presented Mr. John C. Bruce with a handsome watch in commemoration of the completion of 29 years of service in the public schools by him. The presentation came as a complete surprise to Mr. Bruce. The teachers had gathered at Lincoln School to receive their pay checks. While in the act of issuing out these checks, Mr. Bruce was stopped, while Mrs. Marie Madro Marshall in a well prepared speech, made the presentation. Mr. Bruce is supervising principal of the Thirteenth Division. LOCALS AND SOCIETY PACE TH THE TRIO BEAUTY PARLOR AND SCHOOL 1944 9th Street, NW. * ‘The home of efficiency and satisfac- tion.

OPPORTUNITY AFFORDED VISITORS. ‘Musicians hailing from ‘different sections of the country visiting herc this week are afforded a splendid op: portunity to study up on the subject of music. The Public Library has many volumes on musie treating 2 wide range and over 400. scores: of operatic works are available, particu larly adapted to the use of pianists organists, teachers, choral and choi: leaders, singers and professional an¢ amateur musicians. Also there arr [many books of interest to those why love music, but who do not perform on any instrument. _ Of the 3,400 volumes in the col- lection, one-third is devoted to musi- cul history and criticism and treatises on theory and esthetics. Over 400 volumes are musical biography giv- ing information in regard to practical- ly every known musician. The stand- ard musie dictionaries may also be consulted in the reference room. An important division contains 250 valuable ofchestral and 180 vocal scores representative of the best in operatic music. ‘These scores, while largely classical, by’ no means ex- clude the popular musie of the day, Lovers of vocal musie will find lead- ing books on voice culture, singing, and may secure more than 800 solos or part songs in English, French and Italian and other languages. Among these are selections from the operas, folk songs, games in many lands, pa- triotic, college, Negro and children’s songs. The library has also libret- tos and the stories of all the best known operas and current and back numbers of musical magazines are on file. Books which would quicken the average person's musical perceptions and reveal to him new musical beau- ties are as follows: How to listen to Music (Krehbiel); What we hear in musie (Faulkner); Fundamentals of Music (Gehrkens); Chopin, the man and his musie (Hune- ker); Life of Beethoven (Thayer); What is good music?

F A Correction The Tribune is always willing | to right a wrong. It is not unman- ly to do an honorable act. in an article printed three weeks ago in this paper’ with reference to Dirs. Neoma Cooper of 230 W Street, Northwest, being caught with a -man in her room, there was an un- fortunate error. In the haste, incident to printing a newspaper, it is not always poss- ‘ible to verify every statement that creeps into print. The Tribune feels that an injustice was done Mrs. Cooper in the matter. When the matter was brought to the atten- tion of the editor of The Tribune, the evidence showed conelusively that a correction in these columns is due Mrs. Cooper. Mrs. Cooper was not caught as charged, ‘but it was an unfortunate mistake of the reporter in getting his information, and after a full investigation The Tribune is in a position to state that the statement is without foun- dation. According to people who know Mrs. Cooper well, The Tribune be- lieves that a publication of this kind is due Mrs. Copoer to set her aright before the community. The Tribune would knowingly do noth- ing to hurt or injure in anyway the character of any person and in amaking this correction, as well as apology, we feel that we are mere- ly performing a duty to the public. . | Personal Service : The personal element is equally important in the con- duet of a funeral, as proficiency in technical reauire- ments.. Tact and sympathetic understanding must go hand in hand with professional skill. You will find our service admirably combining these desirable features. We strive to give the kind of service that precludes-any possibility of confusion or embarass- ing delays. p A Complete ° eS £ ii QZ08 Funeral for $100 @ Ae @ (5) John T. Rhines & Co.

Reports by the Committee on Membership, Welfare, Entertainment, Finance and Hospitalization were made. A resolution of sympathy was extended the family of the late Dr. Kate Waller Barrett, through Department Headquarters, expressing the sincere regrets of the Post at the death of one of America's most noted civic workers, War Nurse and revered comrade. The Post endorsed the efforts of members of Congress, who are influencing legislation in behalf of the disabled, and, in particular, the work of the National Legislative Committee of the Legion, of which, John Thomas Taylor, is the Chairman. Master-at-arms, W. A. Brooks, told of the elegant reception tendered the disabled soldiers and sailors of the Walter Reed and Mt. Alto hospitals by employees of the Bureau of Engraving & Printing on Wednesday evening, February, 18th, inst. A letter of appreciation from the Post was sent the Chairman, Mr. Marcelies Syphax of the Committee responsible for the same. Commander S. H. Epps cited the continued spirit among the members of the Post, and outlined the proposed plan for a 100 per cent increase in membership.

PETER to see these little donkeys loaded with several heavy packs and sometimes two large persons. The low caste natives or peons, go barefooted and judging from the looks of their feet, it seems as if they never wash them. Many of the natives were rather ragged in their wearing apparel. However, at no time did I see the exposure of the bosoms of the females as one sees in most latin countries. The Haitians are very discreet in this respect, I understand. The upper caste wear shoes and are better dressed. The natives carry everything upon their heads. It is a common thing to see a native man with a two hundred pound sack of coffee upon his head. Market day was in progress when we arrived and it was a very interesting sight to see the many varied wares and to hear the constant jargon of French. After spending the morning studying native life, I proceeded to the American Legation to see my friend, Captain Napoleon Bonaparte Marshall of the old Fifteenth New York Regiment fame in the late World War. Captain Marshall is attached to the office of Minister from the States to Haiti. He has been stationed in Haiti for two years.

Fallin Editor's Note:—Beginning this week, The Tribune will publish intermittently, articles telling of the experiences of a Y. M. C. A., Secretary in tropical Panama. The writer, Mr. Roland D. L. Fallin, was recently stationed in this city and was connected with the Twelfth Street Branch Y. M. C. A. He is now stationed at Laboca Club House, Balboa, Canal Zone. We present this week, the first article of the series which tell of his trip from New York City, via, Haiti to Panama. When we left New York City, February 24th, 1925, it was about eight degrees above zero. The air was chilly and the snow which had fallen a few days before, had frozen almost into a solid mass. In many places the dirt of the city had changed the color from a pure white to a dingy black. As February 24th was the day of the epochal eclipse, naturally everybody in New York City was interested in this phenomena. We boarded the ship, Panama, about 2:30 p.m. The ship sailed at four p.m. Immediately out of the port, we encountered a stiff wind, but the sea was not so ought until we were off Cape Hatteras, N. C. There it was rather rough, and with rain and wind made most of the passengers sea sick. Being a good sailor, I did not feel any of the effects of the ship's rolling. Early on Thursday morning, February 27th, we landed in Port Au Prince, Haiti. The entrance to the harbor of Port Au Prince is surrounded by lofty hills on both side and an open plain for over a mile. The white stone huts of the natives, the massive residences and the Presidents' House and the Cathedral in the foreground, makes a very interesting view to the traveler. The native children came alongside the ship and dived for coins that were thrown overboard by the passengers. They really are as agile as fishes in the water, and some of them even caught the coins before they were several feet beneath the surface. Native labor unloaded the cargo and to hear the jargon of French, sounded like the noise of battle. The village life is rather picturesque. Water is drawn from a well as we oftimes see in many of the eastern countries. Burrows are the chief method of travel among the natives and it was a very interesting sight Read Esther Bigeou, exclusive phono-graph artist and famous vaudeville star.

Volstead has not come into Haiti yet and champaigne, absinthe, beer and whiskey flow as freely as the ocean and at very moderate rates. The high caste Haitian is very aristocratic and exclusive and they have the highest development of society. In fact, their society is as good as anywhere in the world. I lunched with Captain and Madame Marshall. The luncheon was served in courses in the latest French fashion by a little Haitian houseboy who was very left in the arts of service. After a short sightseeing trip, we had to hasten to make the boat which was sailing at four-thirty p.m. Captain and Madame Marshall accompanied me to the steamer and bad me bon voyage.

CEMICAL COMPANY Atlanta, Georgia The Tribune Sport Review Dunbar and Armstrong Clash in Deciding Game at Casino Thursday PAGE FOUR The Dunbar a Each Quintet Has Game To Credit The deciding game of the Dunbar-Armstrong series will be played at Murray's Casino, Thursday afternoon, March 12th at 3:30 o'clock. The gymnasiums of the two schools being too small to properly care for the record attendance expected, the school authorities selected the Casino as the site for the final clash. The Dunbar quintet won the first game of the series by the score, 20-17. Armstrong evened the count on its gym last Thursday, 19 to 7. Beth squads are fairly well matched although Armstrong will take the floor a slight favorite. In the opinion of experts neither team comes up to the standard of the past few years. A record attendance is expected. Murmur Girls To Play Balti. Five For the first time in two seasons local basketball lovers will have an opportunity to see the fairer sex in action here next week. A newly organized quintet of former stars playing under the name of Murmur Girls will meet the Orioles of Baltimore at Murray Casino, Tuesday night, March 10th. These teams have met before but under different names. The local aggregation will present some of the old "Y. W." fans or a few years back. The popularity of these young ladies is sure to pack the house. UNION LEAGUE TO INCLUDE SIX CLUBS The local independent baseball clubs are preparing to furnish Washington fans some high class baseball the coming season. The Union League will again be in operation with a membership of six or eight clubs. The Teddy Bears under Manager Fells, LeDroit Tigers under Burrell Kenner and Andrew Allen, Giants under Leroy Barbour, St. Cyprians under Hagen, Oriental Tigers, Buffaloes Harrison and possibly the Virginia All-Stars will make up the league's coster. The season will begin about May ist. Most of the games will be played at South Capitol and P Streets, S.W. An effort may be made to lease this site to erect a park. Hayes Jones is expected to be unanimously named to head the league again this season. Mr. Jones, has worked for many years to put sand-lot baseball in Washington on a higher plane. EASTERN LEAGUE NOTES The Commissioners of the Eastern Colored League met to adopt a schedule last week but Colonel Strothers, owner of the Harrisburgh Giants requested a delay to await the schedule of the white legue of Harrisburg. The two leagues cooperate with each other in arranging non-conflicting dates. The Lincoln Giants will play at Chester, Pa., on Tuesdays and Fridays. Owner Keenans has also arranged for the Lincoln's to continue to play at Protectory Oval in New Verk on Sundays. The following order will be followed by clubs around the circuit: Sundays at Baltimore, Mondays and Wednesdays at Wilmington, Tuesdays and Fridays at Chester, Thursdays and Saturdays at Philadelphia, also Sundays at New York, Wilmington and Chester. The Clubs will continue to play twilight baseball which is already popular in these cities. Owner Alex Pompez of the Cuban Stars is on a trip through Cuba, Poto Rice, San Domingo, St. Kits and St. Thomas in search for baseball material. BUDDARD BEGINS ACTIVITY Urb Ill., Feb. 28—Dehart Hubbard, the sensational University of Michigan track star, proved to be the star of University of Illinois track carnival, here tonight. The Olympic broad jump champion scored double victory, winning the broad jump event with a leap of 23 feet, 6% inches, and the 78-yard low hurdle event in 8 2-5 seconds. Alcoes Unable To Check Panthers The powerful Panthers of Philadelphia true to their heralded powness added another prey to their long list by taking the Alcoes, the pride of Washington, into camp at the Casino, Sunday, by the score 22-21. There was plenty of action from the first whistle with the visiting aggregation leading the attack and having all the best of the first half which ended with the score in their favor, 13-7. The locals aided by some wonderful floor work on the part of Van Harris soon pulled up to even terms but only for a short period. The Panthers were not to be denied. Clever guarding featured the game. The superior speed of the visitors gave them the edge. Panthers(22) Alcoes(21) Campbell R.F. Neale Yancy L.F. Kenner Troy Center Hope Mitchell R.G.

Bernard Young, Jr.) Hampton, Va., Feb. 28—The Blue and White of Hampton, flying in triumph above everything until today, came out of the most sensational, if not the greatest, game ever played here, lowered by the Maroon of Morehouse. The score was tied at half time; 2 field goals by Hampton substitutes, tied the score at about one minute of the final gun; a Morehouse player fouled, but the Hampton player missed the free throw with 25 seconds to play. An extra period was played and Morehouse won by 3 points, while Hampton met her downfall in the overtime period by inaccuracy in shooting foul shots. The final score was 18-15 in favor of Morehouse.

ASSURE A SQUARE DEAL TO VISITING CLUBS We hope in the future our local basketball team managers will take special precaution and not let there be a repetition of the incident that marred last Sunday's game. With less than a minute to play and the Philadelphia Panthers leading by two points some Alco backer grabbed the stop-watch off of the timer's table and caused the game to be abruptly halted. Both timers agreed that there were forty-five seconds remaining when the watch was removed. After a delay of several minutes and much confusion the teams played out the forty-five seconds. Such incidents do not hurt the individual that causes them, but they put the Washington sporting public and the local clubs in a bad light. We don't believe the Panthers had any kick on our officials. The game was certainly fairly and squarely handled by Sam Lacy and Thomas Johnson. In fact Lacy showed rare consideration in reserving his decision and not putting Yancy out of the game when the latter made a pass at him. The Alco players proved themselves to be good sports by defending the visiting player when his removal would likely have meant an easy victory for the locals. In the future let us separate the timers, scorers, substitute players and newspaper men from the spectators. This will eliminate all danger of the fans interfering with the officials. This column regrets the incident that marred the game. The Panthers proved to be a classy quintet and deserved their victory. A much larger crowd should have been on hand to witness the game which was fast and bitterly fought all the way. Let us profit by this unfortunate occurrence and assure our guests of an all-round square deal. WHERE IS THAT OLD DUNBAR SPIRIT? Two games of the high school base played.

ATLANTA PREPARES FOR STRENUOUS FOOTBALL SEASON (By J. C. McMorr'cs) Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 28—The "Crimson Hurricane" of Atlanta University is getting ready for a drive which is calculated to lay low every opponent who essays to meet her on the gridiron next fall. The team of 1925 will face very strong opposition, for the greatest football schedule in the history of the school has been arranged. However, Coach Aiken and his fighting cohorts vow that they will sweep through the season without being defeated. Big "Jeff" Lamar, All-Southern tackle, has been selected by his team-mates to lead the "Hurricane" forth to victory and to the Southern championship.

Up to Monday Shiloh was tied with the Senegals for the second place. The Senegals (schol boy wonders) will meet the Kansas A.

The eighteen lettered men from last year were awarded gold footballs at a rent meeting. Basketball Notes The Alco-Carlisle game originally set for March 13th has been postponed until a later date. Carlisle followers claim the champs are afraid to face them. Alco men contend that all guarantees offered them so far have been too small. The Alpha Phi Alpha quintet better known as the Lightning Five will meet each member of the Fraternal League beginning next Saturday. Three Howard players drew suspensions from basketball competition for failure to show proper courtesy to the officials during the Howard-Morehouse game. The University authorities are to be complimented for taking such steps to eliminate unsportsmanlike conduct. The Howard Varsity-Alumni game at the Colomade last Saturday was a real farce. Neither Ed Gray nor Huddy Oliver appeared. Newt Miller, Rector, Sykes, Curtis and Wiseman were the most notable of the real old stars. Cupid, Goff, Nurse and Marshall also aided the vets. The final score was 34-14 in the varsity's favor. The Armstrong tossers were jolted by Coach Gibson's Douglass High quintet of Baltimore, 33 to 20. It was Baltimore's first victory over Tech in many years. Two preliminaries were played prior to the Alco-Panther clash. The St. Cyprian Reserves making their first showing of the season at the Casino were no match for the Community quintet while the Senegals again proved their superiority over the Elite Panthers by the score, 21 to 13. Dunbar's exhibition against Armstrong last Thursday, was about as poor as they come. Three goals were made from the field, all by Cook. More than a half dozen shots were attempted by the Dunbar players from within the fifteen-foot line. "Soup" Turner and Berry were almost helpless against the Panthers' guarding. Turner caged a long one for his only basket while Berry could only score from the foul line. Followers of the Senegals claim that in Joe Suter and Mac Weatherless they have the best forwards in their class in the city. Morehouse has scored five straight victories over Hampton. Coach Harvey of Morehouse is loud in his praise of the Wilberforce quintet. Baseball In Florida (By "Speed" Madden) Palm Beach, Fla., March 2—McClure star twirler of the Baltimore Black Sox pitching for the Poincariana club broke into the hall of fame, by leading the Breakers Hotel aggregation down without a hit or run not a batter reaching first base. The game was one of the best exhibitions of baseball ever seen in this section. The Royal Poincariana nine winning 2 to 0. Kenyon and Williams starred in the field and at bat. "Rats" Henderson and John Henry, "Pops" Lloyd, of the Bacharach Giants, stopped over here from Cuba. Lloyd's all-star aggregation won the Cuban championship. It is rumored that this pair will join the Breakers. Henderson was with the Royal Poincariana club last year. Judy Johnson, Hilldale star thirdsacker, is in uniform again. It is hoped that he will soon be back in the game. The Breakers suffered a 5 to 0 defeat early in the week. K. C. WALKER COLLEGE GRADUATES BEAUTY CULTURISTS Kansas City, Mo.—Early in November, the Madam C. J.

OMEGA PSI PHI TO HONOR COL. YOUNG'S BIRTHDAY Washington, D.C., March 4—The anniversary of the birth of Colonel Charles Young, which occurs on March 12, will be observed throughout the fifty-four chapters of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity by private services on that date or by public ceremonies Madden Says "No" to Whitss Using Beach The people of the District of Columbia will not be permitted to use the existing bathing beach in Tidal Basin this summer. Representative Martin B. Madden of Illinois stated on the floor of the House last Thursday. This statement was made in reply to a question of Representative Blanton of Texas, who asked Mr. Madden, the chairman of the House appropriations committee, if he "would mind allowing them to operate that already completed beach for white people and allow them to have a little maintenance sum with which to do it?" He added that "we can arrange about a beach for colored people later." Mr. Madden took the position that the Congress complied with the wishes of the people of the District of Columbia by eliminating the items appropriating money for the maintenance of the white beach and covering into the Treasury the unexpended balance of the money for the construction of a beach on the west side of the Tidal Basin for the colored people. "We gave them what they wanted," he said, "and for one I do not propose to be a party to allowing them to do what the Congress says they can not do." Inasmuch as the organic law establishing the bathing beach, which has been used exclusively by white people, has not been repealed, there is some agitation for the continued use of this beach. Funds for its maintenance and operation would be derived from the bathers. The statement of Mr. Madden, however, destroys this hope for the use of the bathing beach this summer for which the appropriation has been stricken out. "I believe that ought to be distinctly understood by those who have administrative charge of that place," he said. If the use of the existing beach by white people should be permitted under any circumstance, there is a growing disposition among the colored people in the District to use it with them, even if it should be necessary to resort to the courts. One proposition has been advanced whereby the white people would use it one day and the colored people the next. Congress adjourns Wednesday, and it is not likely that any provision will be made for public bathing facilities in the District of Columbia. A PERSONAL LETTER- TO MY SCHOOL FRIENDS WRITTEN ON A MIMEGRAPH From Walk Miller's Office, New York City Suite 205—1416 Broadway Due to my having undertaken too much work for one "Georgia Country Boy" to handle as he would like to, I am forced to resort to the Mineograph in order to reach each of my many personal friends throughout the United States, Mexico and Cuba and announce that I have recently opened offices in the "Big City." I still maintain my business connections at Atlanta, Ga., but expect to be in New York most of the time during 1925 and I earnestly extend to all my friends a standing invitation to make my offices theirs at any time they may visit New York; or to advise me by letter, phone or wire that I may be of service at any time. It is my intention to specialize in the handling of Colored fighters; to be able to furnish to any promoter a good colored fighter in any class, a fighter "Who Will Fight"; one that feels he must be respectful, live a clean life, give the fans who witness him in action his very best efforts. Any news from my offices will always have my personal sanction and approval and in most cases my personal signature, this meaning natur- THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, MARCH 7, 1925 LINCOLN THE U Street near Twelfth "The Home of Perfect Enterta Matinees Daily 1 p.m.—Sundays and H Entire Week Begin Sunday, Marc Douglas Fairbanks In the THIEF OF BAGDAD Have you ever seen a Magic Rug soar above the city bearing a Thief and a Princess?

It is devoted to reform and progress. It is governed and actuated only by principles in so far as they make for justice, for harmony and for the general welfare of the public. Its news department is fearless, impassionate and drastically independent. a rnatates THE RIGHTS OF PERSONS The message which the new President gave to the American public, Wednesday last, was one advocating practical economy to American citizens—specifying no race—and good will toward all the world. Having come from the ranks of the common people, suffered and labored as they, it is not surprising to hear him ad- dress his remarks to the masses. If this is to be a government of the people, for the people and by the people, the rights of the peo- ple must be of first concern. “We need not concern ourselves much about the rights of property,” said he, “if we will faithfully observe the rights of persons.” —One could not expect nor even wish more of this great Republic than a faithful observance of “the rights of persons.” But can we, in the face of past experiences, expect a realization of a faithful observance of “the rights of persons”? Can we ex- pect him “to be openly and candidly, intensely and scrupulously American” in spite of the segregation and discrimination prac- ticed in the departments of government here? Do-segregation, | discrimination and their sister evils exist because of a faithful observance of “the rights of persons”? Do they exist because of the cpen and candid, intense and scrupulous Americanism which he advocates? Or has that Americaffism class distinction ; a favoured few “rights of persons”? We look forward to the day when the President shall, by legis- Jation, be prevented from holding the office for more than one term—the day when he can “openly and candidly, intensely and scrupulously” keep steadily in view the interests and rights of the average citizen, instead of playing politics one term in order to be returned, thereby becoming involved in the great struggle for preferment among powerful organized groups. We bape for the day when the Administration shall embodv.a philosophy of life and national progress, irrespective ef xace, color or creed, as well as a merely fiscal ideal. ‘As it is, he took the Presidential oath Wednesday with many clouds in the sky.- There is a cloud of suspicion as to whether he has the ability to fill the Presidency with distinction and to the satisfaction of the great mass of his countrymen. The indispensa- ble work—the faithful observance of the interests of the average citizen—to which he has pledged himself is a great task; but, if he strives earnestly and intelligently for its realization, we will heartily support him and rejoice with him in each step that he is able to take toward its completion. “VISUALIZED EDUCATION” ‘We wish to congratulate the authorities of the schools of the District of Columbia, and elsewhere, for their recognition of the value of motion pictures in public education, and we also con- gratulate the theatre managers for their willingness to co-operate in the campaign. a It is said that Thomas A. Edison was the first to supra tne motion pictures be used as textbooks in our schools. ‘e do no’ know the authoreof the idea, but we do know that they are, fo some extent, being, used in instruction in geography. We also know that there is a prevailing belief among educators that the teaching of history may be aided by historical pageants which show such events as the arrival of the Pilgrims at Plymouth. Teachers who take their pupils to see films of this sort, or to see films which show Alaska, Colorado, et cetera, report excellent results. And the day may not be far distant when every school- house, perhaps every classroom, will have a projector of its own— when the film will play a highly important part in impressing upon young minds lessons which cannot be taught as effectively in any other way. The eye is the oldest medium known for education. The rapid strides of intellectual progress have not taken away one iota of its usefulness; they have served to enhance its value in intel- lectual attainment. With professional explanation as the pic- tures pass, a child can learn and remember more in forty-five minutes than it could in years of reading. For, a child’s imagina- tion—and for that matter, the imagination of many an adult— is not sufficient to enable it to grasp fully a word picture, nor to understand prevailing conditions when given in wotds. Neither thought nor effort should be spared in securing an ap- propriation to carry on this work. It will require a long cam- paign. Its results will have a deciding effect upon the Nation’s educational standards. And the public, the Nation, should show a willingness to carry on the campaign by making an appropria- tion for that purpose. We cannot expect producers nor theatre managers to revolu- tionize their enterprises-completely for school and college educa- tion unless the public can be made to demand suci. It is a mat- ter of business with them. They see principally the money in- volved. And if the public does not create a desire for better pic- tures, we shall continue to see our children as soon as school is dismissed troop frequently to see films which constitute textbooks of a very mischievous character; for even though the moral tone of these films is above reproach they give a false or an exaggerated picture of life, exactly as did the blood-and-thunder novel of forty years ago.

Business men tell us that they are handicapped in their enter- prises by the lack of capital. The husband says the lack of funds prevents him from making the initial payment ona home. Bank- ers go to the rocks beeause of the shortage of capital. And in every case, say what you will or may, the main trouble is poor management. We are today enjoying a period of prosperity which bids fair to Jast longer than previous periods. Wages seem to be more stable— and relatively higher—than they have been for years. Of course the cost of living is high; but by increasing wages here and cut- ting down the cost of existence there, we find that the ratio of wages to the cost of living has slightly increased over pre-war conditions. i Sond s What does this increase mean? In the majority of cases, it THE WASHINGTON iitistne SATURDAY, MARCH 7, 1925 simply means that a wage earner who bought a twenty-cents-a. pound this or that, and a four-dollar shoe or hat on a fifteen-a. week job, no longer wants the four-dollar shoe, and the like; but must have an eight or ten-dollar shoe on a twenty-dollar-a-week job. In short, he increases his cost of livjng out of proportion to the increase in wage. He, no doubt, has made many resolves tc save; but he just can not get started. The start is the thing in which we are most interested here ; the results we will treat-later. Our little plan, simple as it may seem, has the approval of the best business authorities, both white and black. All banks require a certain amount as a minimum to open a checking account, some twenty-five, others fifty and still others one hundred dollars. Select your bank, find out what the mini- mum is, and, if you have not that amount, open a saving account and increase it as often as you receive your pay, if by no more than a dollar, until you have the required amount to open your checking account. Then transfer it to a checking account and ask for a deposit book and a check book. This done, watch it grow, and this is the way to make it grow. — Deposit every penny of your wages and pay all expenses by check, even write a check for the amount necessary for your week’s or two weeks’ car tokens. This applies equally as well to the small business man (big business men do it) as to the wage earner. You may object to this because of the red tape, yet the profit well pays for all trouble. Suppose, for instance, your wages are $25.00 per week. Well, that is $1,300.00 per year. You draw out $1,200.00 for expenses, living, et cetera, which means you do about $2,500.00 worth of business with your bank; and, so long as your balance grows, if only by a little, the bink will have a good word to say for you should anyone inquire for a reference. That alone is worth its weight in gold. And furthermore, once the ac- count is started, you will create a desire to make the balance prow, Southern Aid Society Makes Great Recerd (Continued from page 1) and writing policies covering sick, aé- cident and death benefits, by intensive work in this territory, this society does a larger business than all but two or three of the colored’ insurance companies, despite the fact that the other companies write. ordinary and industrial insurance in ten to fifteen states. ‘The successful operation of this in- stitution has given stability and dig- nity to the colored home, aided in the establishing and maintaining of col- ored banks, colored physicians, drug- gists and allied businesses, and the giving of dignified and profitable ém- ployment to hundreds of colored men and women.

Social Distinetion During his remarks on the Howard University appropriation, Senator Bruce declared that, “There is no- body in the United States who believes more completely than I do in drawing a hard and fast line of social dis- tinction between the Negro and the white race;_and iam not moved in the stigntest degree by any political considerations, because in the State of Maryland only a handful of Ne- groes, if any, so far as I know, ever vote the Democratic ticket. I say, however, that we have this race on our hands; we owe them a duty; and it is entirely in keeping with the policy of the Government for years back to make an appropriation of this kind.” In reply to the contention of Sen- ator Glass that it involved race dis- crimination, Senator Bruce said: “It is just impossible, if the Sena- tor will stop“for a moment to think, to make any appropriation for the benefit of the Negro race without in- yolving such a discriminaion as he imagines, because, of course, we can not have coeducation, in this part of world at any rate, of Negroes and white people, and consequently the Government could not make any ap- propriation at all in this case without what the Senator from Virginia ealls discrimination.” The conference report was agreed ‘to without a record vote. The Inter- ior Department appropriation bill carries a total of $591,000 for Howard University. ‘The appropriation for the medical school building was recommended by President Coolidge in his message to Congress. The bill now goes to him for his signature. The Crampton amendment provides, however, that no part of the $370,000 ‘shall be available until there is filed with the Secretary of the Interior a guaranty by the trustees of the uni- versity that suitable equipment will be provided at a cost of not less than $130,000 by subscription by alumni and friends of the university.

The courses offered this year have as- sumed larger proportions than ever before, in that the Medical School is working in conjunetion with the School of Public Health. This ar- rangement gives a much wider scope to the post-graduate courses hereto- fore offered, and affords the practic- ing physician an opportunity to ad- vance his knowledge along the lines of public Health, that new phase of medicine which is so rapidly pushing to the front. By the arrangements affected, phy- sicians may study any of the surgical and medical specialties which they most desire, and at the same time, link them up with Public Health princi- ‘ples and their application to the prac- tice of medicine. f As usual, Surgery and Gynecology will occupy a most important place, but of necessity the classes therein must be limited. All the specialties will be taught, including laboratory branches. Six weeks, from June 8th to July 18th, 1925, have been set apart for post-graduate study.

Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, Washington, D. C., im an_article under the caption of “Leisure Time and the Colored Citi- zen” which appears in a recent num- ber of the Playground Magazine. ‘The great need for more play- grounds and community recreation leaders among the colored people of ‘America is eloquently expressed by Dr. Seott. He says, “The alarmnigly high rate of Negro crimes is as mueh 2 condemnation of the community in which it exists as of the offending ‘Negroes themselves. Community rec- weation facilities for young and: old have proved beyond cavil their value as'a deterrent of crime and also as a factor in the development of healthy and right thinking citizenry.” The development of the Negro citizen in the future, he points ee pri- marily upon the use which the Negrc child is enabled to make of his leisure hours. Greatness comes only to those who seek not how to avoid obstacles, but to overcome them. RADIO . AN EFFICIENT ONE-TUBE RECEIVER (The Single-Citeuit Generator) By Rufus P, Turner—3LF Not so many years ago, Major Ed- win Armstrong (inventor of the super-hetrodyne cireuit) _ perfected the “regenerative” circuit, ie., a re ceiver in which electrical energy is fed back from the output into the in- pat and. used over and over again. “feed-back” action or “re- generation” “causes great amplifica- tion of radio signals and misie. Major’ Armstrong patented the “feed-back” circuit under the name of the “regenerative” circuit, and since TO ACRIAL. ‘then receivers employing the circuit have been known as regenerative tecivers. The most popular and ser viceable: regenerative receiver is one known as the “Single-Cireuit” which is capable of constantly receiving dis- tant stations and bringing in the “lo- gals,” often, with enough volume to operate a loud spekaer. It goes. without ‘saying, however ‘that all parts in this set, as well as others, must be as elaborate as the builder can afford and care must be taken im the assembling of this set particulariy. ‘When the single-circuit receiver i properly constructed and equaily care- fully operated it cannot be excelled. ‘Often in this city 1 have picked up ‘Canadian, Cuban, and Californian sta- ‘tions with the utmost ease while using the single-circuit receiver. No fair thinking radio fan will re- wgset the funds expended for parts for this receiver—if a ratio be made be ‘tween the pleasure derived and the cost of the set, it would be 1,000,006 to 1 in the estimation of the writer. ‘The necessary items for this set are as follows: 2 wariocoupler with accessories; 1 standard V T. socket; 1 vacuum tube; 2A” battery; 1 45-volt dry “B” bat- tery; 1 rheostat; 1 grid-lead (2 ‘megobms); 1 grid condenser (.00025 ‘mfid.); 1 phone condenser (.001 mfd.); ‘1 panel (bakelite or hard rubber) size ‘“ZxiB; 1 wooden base; 1 23-plate va- viable-condenser; 8 binding posts; 7 WINNERS IN TRE TRIBUNE CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENT JINGLE CONTEST ‘The prize of oue dollar goes to Clar- ice Fenwick, 1516 C Street, S.E., for the best jingle with reference to the “Washington Tribune Classified” ad- vertisements.

Connect the parts with bus bar as shown ni the diagram. * Do not forget that no two wires should run parallel with one another. Be sure to connect the stationary plates of the variable condenser te the grid and condenser (see diagram) by so doing, “body capatity” will be eliminated. | Whistles or squeals will be notices when the rotary coil of the vario- coupler is adjusted, These sound: ave ‘termed “oscillation” and ar caused by the tube, Most broadcast ing stations are received best at th point where the set is just about tc go into oscillation, Remember that the single-circuit reeeiver acts as a miniature trans. mitter when it oscillates—hence it is best that you never cause very power- ful whistles, as they will be trans- mitted and will ruin the concert be- ing broadcasted at the time. Attempts are being made by the government ra- dio officials to eliminate the use of such “radiating” receivers because, in the hands of a careless person they become a menace to other listeners-in. Also remember—you woudn’t whis- tle out Ioud at an pera, so why do practically the same thing—cause whistles and squeals to break in on a concert being enjoyed by not only you, but hundreds of other fans? So, summed up, handle the single- circuit receiver with the utmost care It is a set. that, when properly built is.a perfect one-tube receiver, but when poorly built and poorly operated becomes a nuisance.

Great write us any old extract, spice, ete., just so it is la- belied so and so, but thankfully these are very few. There is a great dif- ference in a pure vanilla, lemon, or- ange or almond. The flavor is deli- cate, yet strong and pleasing. The same is true with nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, pepper and mustard. Stop in 1017 U_ Street, Northwest, and get your spices and extracts and be sure of the best quality. Watkins prod- ucts are not high, it is economy to use them aside from the satisfaction and pleasure. ‘ J. F. COLE, reaiter The body of Mrs, Fannie Clair, wife of Bishop M. W. Clair of Washington, was interred in Bethel Cemetery last Tuesday, she having died suddenly Friday, February 27th at her home, 918 T Street, Washington, D.C. She was well know in Alexandria. > Mme.

New York City MONEY MUST ACCOMPANY i= ‘ORDERS Calvin Coolidge Out- . lines His Policies (Continued from page 1) tthere is realization that only under a j reign of law, based on righteousness and supported by the religious convie- tion of the brotherhood of man, can there be’any hope of a complete and satisfying life.” Domestic Affairs The first domestic affair he touched upon in his address was the conduct of our Government by means of polit- ical parties. “If there is to be respon- sible party government,” he said, “the party label must be something more than a mew device for securing of- fice, Unless those who are elected under the same party designation are willing to assume sufficient responsi- bility and exhibit sufficient loyalty and coherence, so that they can cooperate with each other in the support of the broad general principles of the party platform, the election is merely a mockery, no decision is made at the polls, and there is no representation of the popular. will.” The election results, he declared, are a mandate from the people in fa- vor of maintaining our constitution- al guarantees and against the policy of public ownership of railroads and certain electric utiltes. “The people ‘declared,” he said, “that they wanted their rights to have not a political but a judicial determination, and their independence continued and supported by having the ownership and control of their property, not in the’ Govern- ment, but in their own hands.” } Further Tax Reduction Turning from the rejections to the acceptances as indicated by the elec- tion, he said that “the policy that sande out with the greatest clearness is that of economy in public expendi- ure with reduction and reform of tax- ation.” The soultion of our tax problem lies in economy, he said, and this country is best in a position to adopt that simple remedy. “The time is arriving when we can have further tax reduction, when, un- less we wish to hamper the people in their right to earn a living, we must have tax reform. The method of rais- ing revenue ought not to impede the transactions of business; it ought to encourage it. I am opposed to ex- tremely high rates, because they pro- duce little or no revenue, because they are bad for the country, and, finally, Iheealse they are wrong. Wo cannot finance the country, we can not im- [prove social conditions, through any jsystem of injustcies, even if we at- ‘tempt to inflict it upon the rich. Those ‘who suffer the most harm will be ‘the poor,” | He declared that “the wise and cor- rect course to follow in taxation and all other economic legislation is not to destroy those who have already secured success but to create condi- tions under which every one will have a better chance to be successful.” ‘The foregoing questions involve moral issues, he said. “We need not concern ourselves. much about the rights of property if we will faith- fully observe the rights of persons. ‘Under our institutions their rights are supreme. It is not property, but the right to hold property, both ‘great and small, which our Consti- tution guarantees.” Law Obedience He declared that in a republic the first rule for the guidance of the cit- izen is obedience to law. “Those who want their rights respected under the Constitution and the law,” he said ought to set the example themselve of observing the Constitution and the Jaw.” He said that “we could, with profit be less sectional and more national ir our thought. It would be well if we could replace much that is only a false and ignorant prejudice with a true and enlinghtened pride of race But the last election showed that ap- peals to class and nationality had little effect. We were all found loyal to a common citizenship. The funda- mental precept of liberty is tolera- tion. We can not permit any inquisi- tion either within or without the law or apply ‘any religious test to the hold- ing of office, The mind of America must be forever free.” : In an eloquent. peroration he de- clared that “Here stands our country, an example of tranquility at home, a patron of tranquility abroad. Here stands its Government, aware of its might but obedient to its conscience. Here it will continue to stand, seeking peace and prosperity, solicitous for the welfare of the wage earner, pro- moting enterprise, developing water- ways and natural resources, attentive to the intuitive counsel of woman- hood, encouraging education, desiring the advancement of religion, support- ing the cause of justice and honor a- mong the nations. America seeks no earthly empire built on blood and force. No ambition, no temptation, lures her to thought of foreign do- minions. The legions which she sends forth are armed, not with the sword, but with the cross. The higher state to which she seeks the allegiance of all mankind is not of human,. but of divine origin. She cherishes no pur- pose save to merit the favor of Al- mighty God.” HOWARD UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF RELIGION GOES OVER THE TOP Meeting last night for their final rally, Washington alumni and friends of Howard University went over the top in the city campaign to raise an endowment and building fund for Howard University’s School of Reli- gion. The amount raised was $50,- 500. Later reports will raise the self imposed quota of $50,000 several thousand dollars in advance of this amount.
