"Don't Let the Ku Klux Catch You Napping" First in Local Circulation. Vol. 4, No. 45 U. S. SUPREME COURT DENIES GARVEY'S MOTION U. S. SUPREME COURT DENIES GARVEY'S MOTION Marcus Garvey, who fancied himself a Moses to lead colored Americans to Africa and there build up an African empire, must serve his term in the Federal Penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga. Supreme Court Denies Petition The Supreme Court of the United States yesterday denied his petition and motion for a writ or certiorari. Garvey, through his counsel, George Gorgan Battle of New York, asked the Supreme Court to require the circuit court of appeals for the second circuit district to certify the recrod in his case to the Supreme Court for its review. Marcus Garvey was found guilty on a charge of using the mails to defraud in connection with the sale of stock in the Black Star Steamship Line, a corporation having for its purpose the acquisition and management of steamships which were ultimately intended to transport to Africa persons and materials with which to build the African empire. Ely Garcia, George Tobias and Orlando M. Thompson, who were indicted with him, were acquitted. Garvey was sentenced to be imprisoned for a term of five years in the penitentiary at Atlanta and to pay a fine of $1,000 and the court costs. The case was heard in the United States Court for the southern district of New York. Garvey appealed, and the decision of the trial court was affirmed by the court of appeals for the second circuit on February 2, 1925. The ground upon which the writ was requested is that the decision of the circuit court of appeals is contrary to the law. Rights Denied Counsel for Garvey contended in the petition that Garvey has been deprived of rights guaranteed by the Constitution in that he was not tried in the State or District in which the alleged crime was committed, and in that he was not informed of the nature and cause of the accusation against him. Mr. Battle further contended that Garvey has been deprived of his liberty without due process of law in that there is not a scintilla of evidence in the record to support the finding that Garvey mailed or caused to be mailed any letter or circular to Benny Dancy either in the southern district of New York, or any other district. Marcus Garvey is now serving his sentence in the Atlanta Federal Penitentiary. His only hope for an early release lies in executive clemency. So far as the courts are concerned, the case is closed. DUNBAR STUDENT ELOPES Alfred E. Dabney, 19, and Edna Marie Dugans, 16, eloped to Rockville, Md., last Monday, March 16, and were married. The girl was a third year student at the Dunbar High Schol. She met her husband three years ago when he was a student at the Armstrong Technical High School, and they have been sweethearts ever since. Mrs. Dabney is from Luray, Va. She lives here with her aunt, Mrs. Hester Thompson, at 1949 Vermont Avenue, Northwest. Mr. Dabney is now the manager of J. T. Howard's billiard parlor at 2011 Georgia Avenue, Northwest. The couple are leaving Sunday to visit Mrs. Dabney's parents at Luray, Va. The Washington Tribune S. H. Dudley, Treasurer of The Federal Loan, Offered $10,000 a Year for Services vey S. H. Dudley, T The Federal I $10,000 a Y The Federal Loan and Finance Corporation, which was organized here the first week in March, has about completed plans for the formal opening of its offices in this city. The corporation is headed by men, all successful in their various lines, and will when opened, have unlimited resources for financing in all of its branches. Many applicants have already been received for loans. These the company expects to handle as soon as it gets started. Temporary offices are now maintained at 313 John Marshall Place, Northwest. An unusual feature of the Federal Loan corporation is the strength of the men who are members of the company. Two previous articles which have appeared in this paper have told of the president and general counsel, Attorney L. M. King and Charles E. Mitchell, banker and accountant, auditor. The treasurer, Mr. S. H. Dudley, is the subject of the sketch this week. Sherman H. Dudley is possibly the most nationally known member of the corporation. Mr. Dudley's fame is known from coast to coast as he has been prominent in the eye of the public for over a quarter of a century. He is one of the last remaining actors who achieved great fame as a member of the old school. Today he is considered the foremost Negro theatrical promoter and producer in America. He is vice-president of the Theatre Owners and Bookers Association, and general manager of the Colored Actors Union, besides being owner of the Mid-City Theatre, he has charge of the eastern division of the T. O. B. A. While Mr. Dudley has practically retired from the stage, forces are now at work to bring him back before the calcium for the entertainment of the American public. Big New York promoters are now trying to induce Mr. Dudley to be starred in a Broadway show with Dave Marion. For his services Mr. Dudley has been offered $10,000 a year. However, because of his extensive business holdings here, he has not as yet decided whether he will accept this flattering offer. Lieut. Tim Brymn who was musical director with Dudley's old Smart Set, is recognized as a musical composer of note; Cris Smith, one of America's greatest song writers and lyric com- SUES FOR DIVORCE: CHARGES CRUELTY Through Attorney John H.

Mrs. Solomon says in her bill that ever since August 1924, her husband has lived in a state of adultery with the correspondent. The wife says that in last August he gave her money to attend a fraternal convention in Pittsburgh, Pa., and upon her return he would not permit her to come into their home. She alleges that in addition to the home where he now lives at 65 G Street, Southwest, which is entirely furnished, he maintains another home entirely furnished at 617½ First Street, Southwest, where he conducts some kind of business, in connection with which he owns and uses a six-passenger Hudson car. His total income, she says, is about $350 a month. N. A. A. C. Pors or Pay at Offi WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, MARCH 28, 1925 S. H. DUDLEY PROTEST LACK OF EMPLOYMENT BY DISTRICT HEADS PROTEST LACK OF EMPLOYMENT BY DISTRICT HEADS The Affiliated Civic Center of Affiliated Associations, of which W. D. Nixon is president and H. E. Barnett is the secretary and said to be composed of twenty-three organizations having a membership of 15,000, has protested to the District Commissioners on account of their failure to give due recognition to colored persons in appointments to clerical and administrative positions in the District government. In their letter to the commissioners they say that "the percentage of those employed and the salary paid colored citizens holding positions above the grade of messengers compared with the total number and salaries received by those of the white race is so insignificant as to be unworthy of respectful consideration." They declare that they feel the colored people are being treated unfairly by the heads of the District government in the matter of clerical employment. They point out that no colored men or women are to be found in the clerical force of either the Surveyor's office or the office of the collector of taxes. They ask for recognition by the appointment of colored persons to positions in all the branches and divisions of the District government and promotions in keeping with the efficiency of the persons employed. Vincent Thomas Buys Interest in Drug Store Mr. Vincent B. Thomas, formerly one of the managers of the Howard Theatre and brother of Andrew Thomas, announced last week that he has purchased a half interest in the Burwell Drug store, located at 12th and U Streets, Northwest. Mr. Thomas has given up his government work and is now devoting all of his time to his new business.' He is a senior at the Washington College of Pharmacy and expects to graduate this spring. Messrs. Thomas and Burwell have planned many improvements to their store which are expected to begin at an early date, making this store one of the most modern in the city. COMING!

Although "The Passion Play" was booked for this week, the house remained dark. Joseph Fine, a stockholder in the Matchwig Corporation, which leases and operates the Howard Theatre, has asked the District Supreme Court to appoint receivers to take over the assets of the corporation for the purpose of selling them to the end that all of its debts may be paid and any balance distributed among the stockholders. The Howard Theatre was again dark Monday night. It had been closed during the previous week on account of "Oil Scandals" cancelling its second week's engagement on account of a strife of union musicians and stage hands. It reopened Sunday with a moving picture, the "Passion Play." Monday, Matchwig Corporation who has kept away from the theatre since he and Fine engaged in an argument on the day the union musicians walked out of the pit, sent for the receipts. Only a part of them were sent to him it is alleged. The picture was running also at the Hippodrome theatre, a movie house for whites which is operated by the partnership of Matchatt and Fine. As one was run off at the Hippodrome, it was sent to the Howard by bicycle messenger. When the receipts were not sent in full. Matchatt refused to send the film and the Howard was dark again on Monday night. Matchatt Ran Theatre In his bill for a receivership, Fine says that Matchatt, in utter disregard for the rights of the stockholders, has assumed to conduct the business precisely as if it belonged to him, making contracts for shows at the Howard Theatre in his own name and contracts with musicians, employees and others in the same manner. Fine alleges that through the fraud and imposition of Matchatt he purchased one-half of the capital stock of the Matchwig Corporation amounting to 25 shares of the par value of $100 a share, for which he paid the sum of $10,000. He says that the only assets of the corporation, aside from $1,000 worth of fixtures used in connection with the Howard Theatre, is a lease of the Howard Theatre; that at the time he purchased the stock, it was represented to him that the theater was a money making proposition and that the lease was of a substantial value. After he had become interested, he says, he discovered that the business did not pay and that the company was running into debt. At the present time, he says, the corporation is indebted to various persons, firms and corporations in the District of Columbia and is hopelessly insolvent, and that unless the assets are conserved, they will be dissipated by attachments and other suits, which are now threatening the company, but that if receivers are appointed and the assets marshalled, the creditors may be paid in full. The lessors of the theatre have filed suit in the Municipal Court alleging that the corporation is in arrears with the rent. Major R. R.

Waldron Denounces Lynchings: Warns that Catastrophes Always Follow Shortly after he became principal of Tuskegee, his wife was insulted by a white train conductor. Moton said the white conductor was right in insulting her. Went to France during World War and lectured to soldiers, telling them not to come home expecting so much, but to come back and accept conditions as they found them. Soldiers became so embittered against him that a plot was formed to kill him. Was principal speaker at dedication of Lincoln Memorial at which time Negroes were segregated, including his guests. During winter of 1923, worked secretly to get Government to locate Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee over protest of race. June 2, 1923, papers carried story of Moton's duplicity in fight to have hospital manned by Negroes. About June 9th same year, upheld Dr. Robt. H. Stanley, white southerner, in insulting Colored nurse at Vets' Hospital. In speech at Abyssinian Baptist Church in New York City, week of June 23, 1923, Moton charged that Negro doctors were incompetent to run Vets' Hospital. Week of July 7, 1923, Ku Klu Klan paraded around Tuskegee grounds as a warning against Negroes continuing their fight for Colored doctors at Vets' Hospital. Moton was in hiding in Virginia.

Milton Waldron, D.D., pastor of Shiloh Baptist Institutional Church on 9th Street, was able to occupy his pulpit since the devastation of Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky by the terrible tornado, and since the brutal lynching that disgraced his native state, Virginia, he took occasion in the prelude to his morning sermon on "The Transfiguration of Christ," to express in impassioned words his sympathy and that of his church for the suffering and dying in the states torn by storm water and fire, and to denounce in no uncertain terms the blood-thirsty mob that lynched and burned a helpless and unknown Negro at Waverly, Va.

Stanley had summarily dismissed three nurses from the hospital because they had disclosed evidence of the Klan having used Government sheets in their parade. Week of August 11, 1923, Moton sent mysterious telegram to C. W. Hare, white trustee at Tuskegee, asking him to bring committee to Washington secretly to fix things up at hospital. Week of September 22, 1923, Moton slipped back to Tuskegee after an absence of nearly three months on account of the trouble concerning the Vets' Hospital. In January, 1924, Moton and Dr. J. R. A. Crossland, then at the Vet's Hospital, became at loggerheads over conditions there. Forced Crossland out. Moton went into "voluntary solitude" because of fear of public reaction to his acts in hospital matter. Forced Dr. Kenney to leave Tuskegee because Dr. Kenney dared take a stand for Negro doctors while Moton was in hiding. And now: Moton is engaged as a tool of certain interests to Hamptonize and Tuskegeeize all Negro education. Plan is to add bigger teacher schools to these institutions for the purpose of furnishing instructors for all schools possible, thoroughly inbued with the "Tuskegee idea."

Dr. Waldron said that he had watched for forty years the course of lynchings in this country, and that he had never known of a lynching that was not followed by some terrible and wide-spread calamity, and he trembled to think of what is sure to come in the wake of the Waverly lynching and burning; and he declared that the states of Illinois, Indiana and Kentucky were not half so much injured by the late tornado as Virginia, and our natoin generally, has been aged by this sowing of hatred, lawlessness and murder. He said, "This is bound to bring forth a harvest of crime and death that will fall upon the heads of thousands in Virginia and elsewhere in the United States—children yet unborn will grow up under this curse and perish for the sins of their fathers.

R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute was to make a speech here, April 1st, at Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, a movement was started to compel certain groups of people to turn out to bear him. This was done it was learned to keep the Major from addressing empty seats. If he speaks here, it will be the first time since the dedication of Lincoln Memorial, May 30th, 1922. Since that time the Major has become persona non gratta with the public, especially the Washington people. Therefore, it is feared that he is liable to be April fooled. He is supposed to deliver the first speech for the Hampton-Tuskegee drive. Dean Kelly Miller of Howard University, has been picked to head the local committee for this meeting. Major Moton as a public figure or supposed leader is less respected today by his own pepole than any other mann in public life. His record since becoming principal of Tuskegee Institute, succeeding the late Booker T. Washington, has been one of cowardly and spineless actions. As an emissary of the southern Democrats, Moton was sent to France to cajole the soldiers. He spoke at nearly every camp in France, telling the colored soldiers not to come back home expecting or demanding equal rights, but to accept conditions as they found them. Although the soldiers in most camps were suffering from hunger, exposure and most of all from segregation, Moton refused to take cognizance of these conditions. So bitter did the feeling become against him, that the night he spoke at Camp Montior, it is alleged that a plot to kill him was worked out. The word, it is said, had been passed down the line of guards as to who was to shoot Moton, who it was expected was to ride in an automobile with another person. Some of the higher noncommissioned officers learned of the plot, it is said, almost by a miracle, and prevented the deed from being committed. Moton's record in dabbling with the Veterans' Hospital matter is still very fresh in the minds of all the people. His double dealing almost caused a riot at Tuskegee. So scared did Moton become that he fled from Tuskegee and took refuge in Cappahosie, Va., where he has a summer home. This was in June, and although the summer school was in session, he was afraid to return to Tuskegee until the third week in September. Another of his characteristic actions, which the public has not forgotten, occurred shortly after Moton was made principal of Tuskegee.

About six hundred guests, a number of whom were from Baltimore and other nearby cities witnessed the affair. The guest list included some of the most notable and representative men and women of the Race, who acc claimed the function to surpass any previous affair given by a fraternity. A number of the "Old Guard" of the "Law Frat"—some of whom came from as far West as Michigan, and from as far East as Boston—were in attendance. There was an intermission of forty-five minutes, during which time Madam De Saussaure, one of America's leading dancers, performed. Her ability was acclaimed by all present as a marvelous achievement. A dozen waitresses attired in the Fraternity's colors served refreshments which consisted of cake and specially made brick cream in the colors of the Tau Delta Sigma Fraternity. Delicious fruit juice punch was served throughout the dance. The favors given were leather cases of rare design on which were engraved in letters of gold the insignia of the Fraternity. TAU DELTA SIGMA NOTES According to news reaching this city, a new chapter of the Tau Delta Sigma fraternit has been formed in Cleveland, Ohio. This chapter is known as Beta Chapter.

She paid special compliments upon the appearance of the Chapter whose officers were all uniformed; she announced that she had given to all the chapters "special mottos" and the one for Queen Esther Chapter was "Character" which she has won because of the many years of service and the long line of strong and able men and women she had given to this Jurisdiction. Complimentary remarks were made by the Royal Grand Lecturer; The Royal and Associate Matrons' of Ruth Chapter No. 8. The speaker for our next communication will be Mrs. Mary F.

QUEEN ESTHER O E S The recent communication of Queen Esther Chapter, O.E.S., stamps the Chapter as one of push and earnestness. Her enthusiasm grows with the age of the year and by December 1925 this zeal should be bubbling over. A full house turned out early to witness and participate in the exercises of the evening. Among the many visitors were our Grand Royal Matron, Mrs. Henry; our Grand Lecturer, Mrs. Lee; Royal and Associate matrons of Ruth Chapter No. 8. Two applications for membership were accepted by the Chapter. When the literary part of the program was reached, the house primed itself for the feast. "Home" was the subject of the address of the evening. The speaker was Past Royal Patron John W. Stockton who discussed it from a spiritual and material point of view. The speaker held, first, that a home should be one of happiness to enable it to grow in influence and be a strong factor in the development of other homes—all of which make our communities, our cities, and our country as an iron band; second, that Christ's spirit should be the bedrock of the home permeating every mind, thought and action of the occupants of the home that better deeds and better influences might emanate and stamp themselves in the hearts of the community which would be a desirable place to live in. J. M. Young, Estq., Royal Patron of Naomi Chapter No. 9, responded to the address. He laid down the following promises, (1) thought, (3) action, (3) union, (4) success. He held that you must think logically before bringing about normal and effective acion, and the ability to think well depends upon a sound body and a daily Living up to the requirement of A. E.

It has been among Negroes for forty-four years. During its existence it has grown to be one of the strongest fraternal societies financially and numerically among Negroes. friends, with the result that the crowds have literally poured in, and are continuing to pour in during the remainder of the week.

Various other fraternities of the District of Columbia have been invited to participate in the festivities of the week, such as the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, the I. B. P.

At the Casino this afternoon (Saturday) the Alpha and Omega fraternity teams will take the floor at 2:15 P.M. On Tuesday night at the Casino, the Alcoes will attempt to clinch the city title by making it two straights over Carlisle. An attendance record will likely be set up at these games. Old-timers don't recall that basketball fans here were ever turned away but those that are not on hand early for the above games will likely be out of luck. Outdoor Teams Active at Howard Baseball practice at Howard is on in full bloom. The first game of the season is booked for April 4th on the campus with Storer College. A long trip South with college teams in Virginia and the Carolinas will follow. A road and home game with Lincoln has also been definitely arranged. The headlines of the season will be a game with a Japanese team during Commencement week. Eight veterans of last year's team are back. Baylor, outfielder and catcher is captain of the squad and Downing, star pitcher, is manager. Coach Burr is high in his praise of a number of rookies. Payne and Braden, football stars, Johnson and Simpson of Chicago basketball fame, and Smith, a Cincinnati athlete, are expected to extend the veterans. Deanwood to Have Strong Nine The famous Dennwood Athletic Club under the leadership of its original manager Bob Jackson has been completely reorganized and promises to make things interesting for local teams. The following officers were recently elected: A. E. Jessup, president and treasurer; R. Monroe, vice-president. R. Jackson, manager; C. Johnson, business manager; G. E. Roulhac, general secretary; B.

SWIMMING MOST ATTRACTIVE AT TALLADEGA COLLEGE AT TALLADEGA COLLEGE On last Saturday afternoon the public had its first opportunity to see the students of Talladega College exhibit skill in the water sports. Among the participants were some of the fifty young men and boys who had been taught to swim on the Talladega "Indoor Beach" since its completion in January. While Nash's one-hundred and twenty foot dash under the water and Sims' all-around ability were the outstanding features the work of Jefferson, Pilgrim, Roberts, Scott, Gentry, and Johnson were of high order. CLAFLIN TO HOLD STATE HIGH SCHOOL MEET Orangeburg, S.C., March 20—Claflin University has issued a call to all the high schools of this section and state to meet in Orangeburg for a day of field sports and track. Joseph D. McGhee director of this event, has received many gratifying answers from many of the twenty high schools to which this call has been issued. Among the high schools already accepting the call are Booker T. Washington of Columbia, S. C., Lincoln High School of Sumter, S. C., Marion County High School, of Marion, S.C., and Voorhees Normal and Industrial Institute of Denmark, S.C. Carlisle Cracks in Final Period After outplaying their opponents, the entire first half and a portion of the final period, the Carlisle quintet went to pieces in the last ten minutes of play and tossed away an eight-point lead to lose the first game of the championship series with the Alcoes at the Casino, Tuesday night, by the score 29 to 28. The spectacular passing of the losers featured the game. The guarding of Braddic and Jones had the "champs" almost helpless until the former was forced out via. four personal fouls. Benmy Hill and the Davis brothers were at their best. "Soup" Turner failed to get started until late in the game. Trigg and Harris lived up to their reputations. Neale and Graves proved that they are far from through. The Carlisle performers counted but four fouls in eighteen attempts while the Alcoes made 3 in 8. The second game of the series will be played at the Casino, Tuesday night, March 31st. Alcoes(29) Carlisle(28) Hope Forward Hill Neale Forward Ev. Davis Stewart Center W.

Wheatland's Toss Gives Alpha Game Marcus Wheatland, veteran of many court conflicts, decided the Alpha-Omega game last Saturday at the Casino with a brilliant one-hand shot in the last few seconds of play clinching the game for Alpha, 24 to 23. But this particular shot was but a meagre portion of Wheatland's achievements for the day. Five other goals some of which bordered on the sensational fell to the lot of the former Lincoln University basketball captain. "Slim" Goff tried hard to pull the Omega quintet through victoriously, with some spectacular shooting, and almost single-handedly overcame a six-point lead the winners had annexed in the first half. The guarding of Kermit Trigg was of high order. Time and again Trigg would charge in to smash the team-play of the Omega five. Nurse and Carter also contributed some great guarding.

CLAFLIN WINS ONE AND LOSES ONE TO CHARLESTON Charleston, S. C., March 18—The Claflin Panthers out to avenge her defeat at the hands of the Charleston Tigers here last week, traveled to the lair of her former victors and succeeded in winning the final game of a two-game series in the tenth inning by the score 5 to 4. On the first day of this tour away from home, Claflin lost the game, called in the eighth inning on account of darkness, by a score of 5 to 4. CLAFLFIN SHUTS OUT PAINE Claflin University Panthers of Orangeburg, South Carolina, gave the spectators of this section what they long desired to witness, when they met and defeated the fast nine from Paine College here yesterday, by a baseball score, 4-0. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, MARCH 28, 1925 Ben Taylor, for the past two seasons manager of the Washington Potomac, has been signed by the Harrisburg Giants to play first-base the coming season. The former Potomac chieftain should have a good year with Colonel Strother's aggregation. With managerial responsibilities last season "Old Reliable" batted over .300 and had a high fielding average. The owners of the Baltimore Black Sox made an effort to land Taylor but no agreement as to salary could be reached. Eastern League Uses New Umpire System (By Lloyd P. Thompson) After two years of striving to deviate from the old system of each club employing their own umpires, which naturally existed when the clubs were operating as independents, the Commissioners of the Eastern Colored League passed a ruling that will materially effect the umpire situation in the fast approaching season. The Commissioners have secured Bill Dallas, one of Philadelphia's most experienced men as supervisor of umpires. Thoroughly familiar, not only with baseball, but all lines of sport, Dallas has served in this capacity for a score of baseball and basketball leagues. A frequent change of umpires at the respective parks should act as a tonic to both fans and players, especially with the system to be put into effect that will prevent the club owners from knowing the identity of the umpires prior to game time. Of course the Commissioners will formulate rules governing the relations of umpires and players, impose fines and if found necessary will make changes in the personnel of the umpire force. Harrisburg Giants Improved Up Harrisburg way, things will be different, so comes a red hot tip from Colonel Strothers. Edgar Wesley Hen Jordan, Rodgers and Russell have been informed that relations are finis between them and the Harrisburg clan. To fill Jordan's shoes, the Colonel has secured "Texas" Burnett from the Lincoln Giants and Charlie Thomas, one of the original Baltimore Black Sox will help share the catching burden. Walter Cannady, sensational first baseman of the Homestead (Penna.) Grays will guard the initial sack. Dick Jackson, who finished the season at second base will be back and George Fiall will again fill in the short field. At third base, which was a constant problem last season, the Colonel has attempted to put his mind at ease by grabbing Bobby Dean from Schenectady, New York. Bobby grabbed many a torrid drive from Chappie Johnson's outfit last season. Hit, run, field and throw are four essentials that go to make up a regular outfielder and the Colonel's combination of "Fats" Jenkins, "Rap" Dixon and manager Charleston, can do these things and do them well hence the Harrisburg mentor will stand pat. The hurling corps is another item that is not giving the Colonel much concern and the same array of box talent will do their stuff. Dalty Coper, Charlie Corbett, "Ping" Gardner, Charlie Henry and "Nick" Carter will measure up well with any staff in the circuit, however, since every one of the men mentioned are starboard flingers, Bill Gientaner who serves them up from the left side has been added to give the staff a greater variety. MOREHOUSE WINS SECOND GAME OF SEASON Morehouse chalked up its second victory of the season when Coach Harvey's sluggers pounded "Sleepy" Edwards for 18 hits while Lockhart held the opponents to 5. The game was featured by heavy hitting on the part of the Tigers. Sykes with three out of five, Dun with 3 out of 6, J. Williams with 3 out of 5 and E. B. Williams with 3 out of 5. Sykes drove one to the center field fence, the ball rolling under for a home run. By A. Washington Institute, W.Va.—Keeping abreast with the opinion ceded to her by many sport writers as being foremost in athletic endeavors, the West Virginia Collegiate Institute promoted on Thursday, Friday and Saturday of last week, a basketball tournament among the high schools of West Virginia. The tourney was under the auspices of the West Virginia Colored Athletic Association and decided the cage champion of the State. This tournament was the first of its kind ever staged in West Virginia among Negro schools and one of the first ever held in any Negro school of the country. It bids fair to become a forerunner of many like events in our schools and colleges. Much enthusiasm characterized the whole affair and many praiseworthy comments have been extended to the athletic authorities at Institute for the commendable manner in which the contest was arranged and effected. Mr. F. A. Parker assistant coach of Institute conducted the proceedings of the tournament and credit due him for the successful manner in which the event was executed. Eleven high schools were represented in the contest. Ninety-two players and eleven coaches constituted the aggregation, which, for three days, through bitter antagonism and strife, held sway at Institute. The number of visitors and friends made a total of approximately 175 loyal supporters and fans. Twenty-one games were required to decide the title of the State. In the final analysis, Lincoln High of Wheeling was awarded the honor of State Champions, after Kimball High had closely contested the title. The Lincolnites were awarded a silver cup by the promoters for the achievement wrought by hard struggling and brilliant playing. The form of the winners was, perhaps, the best of any team which has appeared on the local court. The stellar playing of Campbell at forward and that of his running mate, Spriggs, was most spectacular. The abilities of these two forwards to feint, dodge and pass were assets to their victory while their consistent caging of long shots rolled up scores unabled to be equalled by any of their opponents. Early at center was also a dangerous man on account of his sure shots. The guards on this aggregation were equally as formidable at shooting and caging baskets as they were at guarding, for Woods and Berry were successful in making shots at opportune moments. In toto, the five from Wheeling were a group of players skilled in the game in all its phases and able to execute many fine attacks at critical times. This team was defeated once throughout the tournament, having played seven games. This defeat came at the hands of Kimball High on the afternoon of the first day's contests. Kelly Miller was Favored Kelly Miller High of Clarksburg was the favorite of the tourney. They suffered a setback, however, in the first game when Kimball surprised them with a 30-17 victory. Kelly Miller, however, came through the other games and met Lincoln in the semifinals, but was unable to stand the onslaught. Leftridge and O'Neil displayed such wonderful floor and team work that they were awarded a berth on the mythical all-state team. Another of the Millerites, W. Lefridge, was given honorable mention. Simmons High of Montgomery was also a surprise to the many witnesses of the games. Playing five games, Simmons was eliminated from the finals by Lincoln on Saturday morning by the score of 21 to 14. C. Sandridge was outstanding for the Simmons boys and through his efforts and skill, his team was in seeing distance of the title. Kimball won from Simmons, also, by the score of 28 to 14. Garnett High of Charleston was picked by some to cop the title, but, due to a lack of team work, was eliminated in the semi-finals. The dimutive, Mickey, played a wonderful game, but his lone endeavors were not sufficient to stave off the impending defeats at the hands of Simmons and Kelly Miller. Edwards, for Garnett, was also good in his position at forward, and won honorable mention from the judges of the games. Kimball's Defence Superb hTc runner-up of the tournament Basketball Notes The basketball hero of the week is "Judge" Smith, coach of both winning aggregations—Alpha and Alco. The "Judge" showed rare judgment in switching his line-up during the progress of both games. He yanked his star Turner, when the latter went "up in the air" and pulled Stewart out when he showed some poor sportsmanship. Neale, Graves, Hill, Wheatland are vets that have plenty of good basketball left. Barbour, the best reserve guard on the Carlisle roster, failed to show up for the biggest game. The "Four Horsemen" dropped a 33-22 tilt to the Baltimore Scholasties. In swamping the Howard Girls, the Y.W.C.A. quintet proved that they are regaining their form. The National Guards possess plenty of class. Watch them. "Mouse" Johnson and Sam Lacy handled the championship like two real artists. Few officials would have wanted that game. Why go out of the city for good officials? The Gladiators won over the St. Cyprian Reserves by a 29-28 count. The Gladiators claim the southeast title. A sensational last half rally of the Saints fell short by one point. Brown led both teams in scoring with 9 field goals and 2 fouls. Fowler, Spriggs, Shelton, for the winners and Booze, Berry and J. Bush, for the losers played well. We hazard the guess that Omega will come back and win today and the Alcoes will clinch the city title Tuesday. "Y" Sport News SENIOR LEAGUE STANDING W L Pet.

The Kimball aggregation upset the tournament dope in their first game by defeating the strong Kelly Miller five. Although a weak offensive team, Kimball had a wonderful defensive five. Young, at guard, was a wonder. He sensed plays and was always on the ball whenever it threatened his goal. It was by his stellar ability to guard that won for Kimball its first game, and gave to it a chance in the last game of the tournament. This team again spilled the dope when it defeated the Lincoln team by the small score of 7 to 5. Mitchell, center, was very formidable when it came to shooting, and quite frequently he was fouled because his ability to cage foul throws was less dangerous than his capacity to shoot from the field. Both of these men for Kimball won their places on the select. The final game was played between Kimball and Lincoln. At the halftime, Kimball led by the score of 11 to 6. In the second half, however, Lincoln staged a brilliant come-back and the final reckoning was 27 to 23 in teh latter's favor. Kimball's weakness in pitching foul shots lost for them the last encounter and gave to Lincoln the title of state champions. Dunbar of Fairmont, Genoa of Bluefield, Adkin of Gary, Dubois of Macdonald, Sumner of Parkersburg and Keystone of Keystone were the other contestants of the tourney, but were early eliminated from the contest.

THE FOLK-LORE OF THE RACE IS SACRED An industrial tableaux was rendered in Carnegie Hall, New York, Tuesday afternoon last, by students of Hampton and Tuskegee Institutes. It was given as a means of increasing the funds of their joint endowment campaign. According to the dispatch, the feature of the entertainment was entitled, "Songs and Scenes from Dixie," in which students were "engaged in making brick... and other activities while they crooned 'Go Down, Moses.'" Those who have visited the Southland recently and are familiar with the general temperament of the Negro thereof know that "Go Down, Moses" is not the typical song to be heard among the laborers. Instead, one hears such songs as "Mama Loves Papa," "Everybody Loves My Baby," and similar songs which are as much New York as they are Virginia and Alabama. While we admit that crooning is heard, we find that Southern workmen seldom engage in group singing of folk-songs. Even the cross-road church uses such songs to inspire but not for amusement. Folksongs and traditions are gradually being recognized as too sacred—they express too much to be used in so light a vein. However, if it is found necessary to use them as a means of attracting white philanthropy, they should be so interwoven into the program as not to leave as the most lasting impression, that the Negro to-day is the same cringing, "hat-in-hand, me-to-boss" person that he was fifty years ago. Otherwise, the resultant gain is not commensurate with the barriers consequently set up against political, economical and citizenry recognition. While we heartily approve of these schools increasing their funds to better enable them to function, we expect the authorities thereof to see farther than their noses in many directions. We expect of them earnest and intelligent efforts for the betterment of the Race. But we do not expect them—like the man, up in a tree, sawing the limb, upon which he sat, between him and the tree—to make a like success. Such success is more than likely to be fatal. We do not find the intelligent class of any other race using its folk-lore for commercial purposes and we will not subscribe to the idea of the Negro's commercializing his.

In this show, Mr. Dudley is to have the leading role while the show is in New York. He is to groom an assistant to take his part when the show hits the road. Plans for this show are well underway; one of the only hitches in the plans is that Mr. Dudley wants to have an interest in the show. S. H.

NELLIE BROWN REDD DEAD Mrs. Nellie Brown Redd departed this life Monday, March 16th at 5 a.m. She was born at Three Sisters, Prince George Co., Md., about 70 years ago. She was the daughter of Henry and Mary Brown. She was married to William H. Redd of Hyattsville, Md., Nov. 6, 1879, by Rev. Henry V. Plummer. From this union, they reared 10 children, 5 boys and 5 girls, 7 of whom survive her. She became a member of The St. Paul Baptist Church of Bladensburg, Md., in March 1900. By letter she became a member of the Brentwood Baptist Church about 1906. When she lost her brother John Preston Brown in 1887 his 5 fatherless children became hers to care for and keep. She leaves to mourn their loss, a devoted husband, 5 daughters, 2 sons, 11 grandchildren, 1 great-grandson, 2 sisters, 1 brother, 2 daughters-in-law, and a host of relatives and friends.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBONE SATURDAY, MARCH 28, 1925 Something of Interest ```markdown ``` After reading the many learned and eloquent treatises on divorce which have appeared in the various public print, it seems to us that t ese philosophers of cosmic wisdom have laid too much stress on important things and too little on trivial. The adjectives are used, of course, in their generally accepted sense—hence there is no paradox. Specifically, we mean to say that the causes of divorce are doubtless infinitely more insignificant, as such things go, than the majority of investigators and examiners believe—that is, the real causes. Generally, the reasons disclosed in court One of the chief causes of divorce, perhaps, or, more exactly, leading up to the act or acts legally recognized as grounds for divorce, is a trivial physical blemish in one or the other of the parties to the marriage. This defect, in either husband or wife, may be comparatively insignificant; yet no matter. If lived with for a period of time, it has a cruel and devastating habit of burning itself into the eye and consciousness of the other; it gradually becomes almost a visual phobia; its image will not out. It colors the one person's entire picture of the other. It grows to dominate that picture completely. In the course of time, if the other is at all sensitive—and nine out of ten persons are extremely sensitive in this regard—it becomes unbearable. The husband, if it is the husband, begins, almost unconsciously, to look around him at other and theoretically more immaculate women. The look grows steadier. . . . Reno. . . . The divorce court. The wife, on the other hand, if it is the wife, simply gets to the point where she can not endure the marriage relation any longer, and leaves her husband's bed and board. And the newspapers, in due course, print the grounds of divorce, but fail to print the reason. Another reason for the act or acts leading to divorce may be found in the inability of the married parties to stand the aesthetic jars which propinquity forces more or less upon them. This is particularly true of men and women who marry after the twenties have passed into the thirties. Such men and women have grown so accustomed to physical and emotional independence that the habit is not easy to break. It is much more difficult for them to endure the invasions upon privacy which marriage brings with it than it is for younger persons. For every couple which have been put asunder by adultery, or lack of support, or a carpet-beater, there are two which have been split by being compelled to use the same bathroom, or by a bathroom which was too disconcertingly close to their bed-chamber. There are dozens of other such reasons, each and all overpowering in their superficial triviality. The two mentioned are sufficient to suggest many of the rest. A marriage which has weathered stormy seas all too often goes to smash on a pebble. 1. No woman, in the highest moment of her pleasure, thinks of marriage. She begins to think of it in her moments of misgiving, self-doubt and misery. Marriage is generally a craft which backs quickly out to sea from a shaky and partly condemned dock. 2. It is only the amateur of feminine loveliness who believes that a woman looks more beautiful in an evening gown than in day dress. As a general thing, a woman is not half so physically attractive in decollette as in the habiliments of afternoon. 3. There is one thing, at least, which age is not successful in deceiving itself about. It may lie convincingly to itself about a hundred different things, but it stubs its toe embarrassingly when it is met with an invitation to toboggan. A man and woman become definitely old in their own consciousness the moment the toboggan sled begins to seem risky and uninviting to them. 4. At the end of one millennium and nine centuries of Christianity, it remains an unshakeable assumption of the law in all Christian countries, and the moral judgment of Christians everywhere, that if a man and a woman, entering a room together, close the door behind them, the man will come out sadder and the woman wiser. 5. The difference between a moral man and a man of honor is that the latter regrets a discreditable act, even when it has worked and he has not been caught.

King, Chef, Hotel Roosevelt A plain test for flour, is to place several samples side by side on a board, or stiff paper, and smooth as much as possible, with a knife. In this manner flour is tested for its freedom from bran, and for color. The strong bread flours, have a yellow color, and a sharp board, or stiff paper and smooth as much as possible, with a knife. In this manner flour is tested for its freedom from bran, and for color. The strong bread flours, have a yellow color, and a sharp, granular feel, when rubbed between the fingers; while the finer flours are more white of color and feel smooth and heavy in the hands. Another simple test, is to take even quantities of the different samples, say an ounce of each, and mix with even parts of water, into a paste; the flour which makes the finest paste is the strongest, and will yield the most bread. Even the best known brands of flour, change with every season, therefore it requires constant watching to get uniform bread, even with the same brand. The most difficulties are experienced with the newly milled flours. Bakers always keep a supply of old flour on aired for several months. Wheat flour shows less expansion in the dough, and in baking, proves slower, than flours which have been stored, and aired for several months. Wheat flour improves with age; gets white and of better proving qualities. Flour is best stored in a well aired room of moderate temperature. It should not be kept near strong smelling substances, because it absorbs odors readily, which would make the bread unfit for use. All flours should be sifted before using. This makes a lighter bread, and removes all foreign bodies, such as barrel tacks, string, etc., which are so often found in flour. Graham flour is the unbotted wheat meal, but in many of these flours the best has been removed, and besides, it is sometimes made of the poorest grades of wheat. Therefore, for bread making, it is best to mix some strong patent flour with it, to insure good bread. Whole wheat flour, or entire wheat flour, is made of the better grades of wheat, with a part, or all, of the bran removed. Gluten flour, or health flour, is used, to some extent in Sanitariums and Hotels. It is a wheat flour, which should contain very little, or no starch at all. It is made into bread for diabetic patients. Rye Flour The best and whitest rye flours are made from the center of the grains, like the wheat patent flours. Generally the bran only is taken from the rye flour, which makes a darker flour, but a more pronounced rye flour. Many of the rye flours on the market are blended with the darker grades of wheat flour. This is done, partly to improve the bread-making qualities, to make a larger loaf, and also, to work off cheap wheat flours. While wheat flour improves with age, rye flour is better if used fresh from the mill. Old rye loses much of its flavor. Rye Meal Rye meal is made like the graham flour, and is used for that class of rye bread known as Pumpernickel. Corn Meal Corn meal, and corn flour are used in bread-making. Corn flour is however mixed with wheat flour, when used for this purpose. The blended flour has the color, and the sharp granular feel, of the strong wheat flours, but the strength, of the pure wheat flour, is lacking. Corn meal is used in some breads. It is scalded and made into mush—which is added to the dough. This process makes bread which retains more moisture, and much longer too, than in the ordinary way, of making bread. Rye flour and corn flour blended, is also used in Europe to make a cheaper grade of bread. This recipe will teach the house wife, to make good bread, or rolls in from three to four hours. Recipe (1) One lb. Pillsbury's best flour well sifted. (1) One teaspoonful salt. (2) Two tablespoonful, or 4 oz. of lard. (3) Three oz. granulated sugar. (2) Two cakes Fleischmann's Yeast Dissolve yeast in cold water, then mix dough in warm water, about sum- mer heat (98 degrees), set in warm place to prove; after dough is light make out into rolls or loaf bread, and let stand (30) thirty minutes. Then bake in a moderate oven until done. THE NATIONAL IDEAL BENEFIT SOCIETY On April 8th, Supreme Master, A.W.

S. A. By Wm. Monroe Trotter The United States of America is not a "White Man's Country." It had to be created by severance from Great Britain which took soldiers and fighting. Colored soldiers were used in its birth and creation, and have been used in all wars to preserve and enlarge it. So the U. S. A. belongs to both white and black forever. In the Colonies as against Indians; French and Spanish; in the King Philip; French and Indian; French and Spanish Wars, slaves were sentinels, soldiers, and companions of masters. Two references show the general fact, Historians Lossing and Goodrich state that Governor Craven of South Carolina marched against the Indians with 1200 men, white and black. Col. Henry Laurens of South Carolina advocated Negroes as soldiers for the Revolution from what he had seen of them in colonial wars. Samuel Jenkins was chronicled in the Lancaster, Ohio, Gazette as Colored soldier in Gen. Bradock's defeat. Revolutionary War The town of Framingham, Mass. erected a tablet to "Peter Salem," soldier of the Revolution—battles of Concord, Bunker Hill, Saratoga, Hon. Edw. Everett in an oration mentioned Salem at Bunker Hill. White citizens petitioned Massachusetts' Legislature in 1775 to have Salem Poor rewarded for action at Bunker Hill, where also a whole Colored company fought and where one Lew, a Negro, was a fifer. December 1775, Gen. George Washington wrote "I have given free Negroes license for their being enlisted" W. C. Nell's history shows that 3,000 served. After the battle of Saratoga, Gen. Schuyler mentioned Colored as soldiers of his army. In 1777 Rhode Island passed a law to permit Colored to colonist and had 1,500 Colored troops. Of them Gov. Eustis of New Jersey said: "The gallant defense of Red Bank in which the black regimentook part is among the proofs of their valor, and this was, one of most heroic and successful battles of the war. Arnold's history of Rhode Island says on the Battle of Rhode Island: "It was in repelling these furious assaults that the Black Regiment distinguished itself." Congressman Pinckney, of Virginia, in 1820, said: "In the Northern States numerous bodies of Negroes fought by the side of the whites the battles of the Revolution. In 1783 the legislature of Virginia enacted a radical law to the effect that slaves who had been enlisted must not be remanded to slavery." These few references are sufficient to prove fighting by Colored soldiers in the Revolution. "America's paternity was composite."—Guthrie. It is well established that many Colored soldiers and especially sailors fought in this second war with England—In McKenzie's "Life of Commodore Perry," Colonel Crogham, says, about one in ten crews were black. Commodore Chauncey wrote to Perry: "I have nearly fifty blacks on this ship. They are among my best men." Rossiter Johnson in "His- CASH PRIZE CROSS-WORD PUZZLE JOHN T. RHINES & CO. Funeral Directors and Embalmers 901 3rd Street, S.W. Washington, D.C. It has been a real source of enjoyment to me to become acquainted with such a large number of the children of the city of Washington. Mr. Frazier, editor of this page, who had the contest in charge, turned over to me the hundreds of letters sent in by the young readers of the Tribune, and I was agreeably surprised at the enthusiasm you have shown during my series of cross-word puzzles. I feel assured that if you go through life living up to the "Tribunite's Pledge"; being as neat in all things as you seem to be by the showing made in the letters sent in during the contest; striving to carry out the ideals set up for you by fond parents, success is sure to be yours. I wish for you all that industry, perseverance, and thrift will bring to those who dedicate their lives to honest endeavors. THE FINAL CASH PRIZES AWARDS Mr. John T. Rhines of the John T. Rhines and Co., (Funeral Directors and Embalmers), 901 3rd Street, Southwest has been offering to the young readers of this paper, three cash prizes as awards for the solving of cross-word puzzles. Mr. Rhines offered prizes of one dol- lar each for the first three correct answer received. The cross-word puzzle appearing on this page last week, was the last puz- zle of the series sponsored by Mr. Rhines. The winners who are award- ed a dollar each are, Mabel Madden, 943 R Street, Northwest, and Elaine Plummer, 1808 Ninth Street, North- west. No other correct solutions were submitted. Colonial Wars War of 1812 ory of War of 1812" says that many Perry's men were Negroes, especially at the battles of Lake Erie, and lake Champaign in two decisive naval battles of the war. Famous war pictures show Negroes in action. Congressman Marthindale, New York, 1828 said: "Slaves, or Negroes who did, were enlisted as soldiers in the Revolution and I myself saw battalion of them attached to the Northern army in the war of 1812-1815 on the march from Plattsburg to Sackett's Harbor, an important and battle." All of the world knows that 500 Negroes fought and helped in the Battle of New Orleans, because Gen. Jackson officially appealed to them and then again officially praised their valor. Mexican War. In this war to add Mexican territory to Texas and thus to help the United States of America to get more slave territory, many colored men went with their masters—but the war was not for freedom's cause. War of Slaveholders' Rebellion—1861-1865. There is now little need hare of details on Colored soldiers in this war—their presence 200,000 strong no one dares dispute. Official federal records are accessible. The first blood spilled was that of a Colored soldier, Nicholas Biddle, of Pottsville, Penn. Negroes were freed and enlisted as a war measure to save the Union, which they bravely did. Later the 9th and 10th Cavaliers saved the far West from Indians and desperados, and made tranquil the land. Spanish War, 1898-99. Spanish war, 1918. 100-53. The bravery of the 9th and 10th Cavalrys, and 24th and 25th Infantrys, and Colored volunteer regiments at Santiago, Los Quasimas, San Juan Hill and El Caney, etc., are well known, especially that they saved the day, and the life of Col. Roosevelt at El Caney. Later Colored troops finished the pacifying of the Philippines. In the last Mexican fighting the only heroes were Colored soldiers of the 24th Infantry at Carrizal. There can be no dispute that when America was compelled to take part in the World War which threatened extermination of the white races by the white races together with their civilization, that 400,000 Colored soldiers were sent across to fight and die for their country—hence we are right in demanding every public privilege in time of peace, since our race so valiantly offered life in every war.

The best is made from the blossoms of the logwood tree and is known as "Campeche" honey. The superior flavor of this product is much appreciated in France, where it has always brought a higher price than in the United States. The honey is nearly white in color and possesses a delicate quality. The bee-keepers allow their charges to feed upon royal palms and logwood trees, thus producing a blended and desirable yield. Objections are made that some producers gather it before it is ripe, pack it badly, and sometimes let it be mixed with bees and wax. LAST WEEK'S PUZZLE ANSWER Horizontal Vertical 1. RHINES 1.

Turner—3LF Generation after generation, scientists have sought to get as much out of a machine as it put into it. In other words, they have tried to make the output equal to the input, and have failed because so much energy is lost in mechanical devices due to friction, and in electrical ones due to resistance. A few years ago, radio constructors made an everyday practice of plastering tuning-coils with shellac and other waxy insulating substances, and winding them on heavy cardboard or bakelite tubing. In addition to that, variable-condensers were equipped with heavy "showy" bakelite or fiber end plates, and vacuum tube sockets were made of solid moulded bakelite or hard rubber. But later it was discovered that shellac built up unusual "capacity" between the windings of tuning-coils, that some cardboard tubing contained many mineral substances which permitted the current to leak from winding, and that bakelite tubing absorbed a great amount of energy from the tiny electrical pulsations surging through the coil. It was also found that bakelite ends on variable condensers increased the rated capacity of that device and that moulded sockets caused condenserlike effects between the terminals of the vacuum tube. It was evident that the only way to eliminate such "losses" was to dispense with such apparatus, hence the "low-loss" devices came into existence. With the use of low-loss apparatus comes the possibility of making the output of a radio receiver come very near equaling the input, and producing nearly a 100 per cent efficiency. The new low-loss tuning-coils have no shellac or other adhesive substance on their windings, and they are wound on no insulating tubing. They are basket woven and there is no distributed capacity between turns. They give much better results than the old type coils and take up less room as well as presenting a very neat and unique appearance. The low-loss variable condensers have metal end plates with tiny insulating bushings for the rotating shaft to pass through. The capacity variation curve is very near a straight line unlike the parabolic curve of the old rotary plate type. The low-loss sockets are metal with tiny insulating bushings for the terminal bolts to pass through. While not very popular, at present, there is a low-loss panel—a very novel and efficient thing indeed. It is made entirely of metal which eliminates the trouble of making an extra panel-shield; the holes for the instrument are lined with insulating bushings. Of course, such a panel will have to be drilled-to-order as each hole must be lined with an insulating bushing, and different holes must be drilled and lined in different places for different circuits. When a good circuit (with low-loss parts throughout) is put behind a good low-loss panel, a super receiver is the result. If one has been accustomed to using the old-type parts and changes to the new low-loss apparatus, the change in efficiency of the set, is noticeable and worthy of the time spent in making the change. To Our Readers If you are doubtful as to what apparatus to buy, what circuit to use or what to do to improve your present receiver, ask our advice.

SEEK ANNULMENT OF MARRIAGE Mrs. Lottie Berry has asked the District Supreme Court through Attorney Charles E. Robinson, to annul her marriage to David Berry. She alleges that he has another living wife, from whom he had not been divorced at the time of his marriage to her. Mrs. Berry says that she and the defendant were married in Rockville, Md., February 5, 1923. They lived together, she says, until January 12, 1925, when she was forced to leave him because of cruel treatment. She alleges that Berry married an Elizabeth Burwell on August 24, 1920, in this city, the marriage ceremony being performed by the Rev. M. W. D. Norman. She learned of this marriage, she says, when his first wife filed suit for annulment on August 24, 1923. This suit, she says, has not been disposed of.

McGuire's F Corner, NINTH and 1820 9th S since 1912 ha COURTE SERVICE MONEY Liscensed in the State of Maryland TELEPHONE, NORTH 3747 Major R. R. Moton Scheduled to Speak (Continued from page 1) Nashville train between Montgomery and Mobile, Ala. She was insulted by the white conductor and greatly humiliated. When Moton learned of it, he promptly announced that the white conductor was perfectly right in insulting his wife and refused to take up for her; even making a statement against her in the white press. Not only has Moton refused to hold up for race rights, but he has used his official position to punish men who dared maintain their manhood. This was noticeably brought out when he forced Dr. John A. Kenney, who for over twenty-years had been head of the John Andrew Memorial and Medical Hospital at Tuskegee, to leave the school because Dr. Kenney refused to support Moton's stand against Negro doctors at the Veterans' Hospital. Dr. Kenney is the editor of the Journal of the National Medical Association. He remained at Tuskegee all during the bitter fight of the summer of 1923 when his life was endangered by the whites because of his stand that Negroes should man the hospital, while Moton was hiding in Virginia. As soon as Moton was permitted to return to Tuskegee, one of his first acts was to force Dr. Kenney to resign. Dr. Kenney is now practicing in New Jersey, having been obliged to make a new start in life after giving twenty years of the best part of his life to Tuskegee. The better thinking element of Washington people have strongly censured Moton for his misdeeds. He has been unable to attract any audiences of any size here. He is scheduled to speak here on April fools day and it is feared by the men behind the movement that the Major will be April fooled here next Wednesday. It is for this reason that strenuous effort is being made to force certain people who are under obligation to the group behind the meeting to attend regardless of what they think regardless of what they may think of Moton. What the reaction will be to this method is not as yet known. This program is said to extend even to school children. With few exceptions, Major Motor has not appeared before the public in any part of the country to make addresses since the affair at the Veterans' Hospital, until very recently. His reluctance to taking the public platform after his disgraceful action was based on the fear that the public would not turn out to hear him in the first place, and second that he might be asked to answer for some of NEY established 1887 McKinlay Organization Rooms 20-21 Funeral Home WESTMINSTER Sts.

Masons Meet and Adjourn The action of Charles Datcher Lodge No. 15, F. A. A. M. of the District of Columbia, joined by Allen A. C. Griffith and Elias G. Evans, as plaintiffs in a suit brought last week against the trustees of the New Masonic Hall Corporation, is severely criticised by the officers of the Corporation because, they say, the suit was unnecessary and no valid reason existed for bringing it. It is learned that a meeting of the stockholders was scheduled to take place in the month of February to vote upon the propositions of increasing the capital stock and obtaining a loan for the purpose of completing the building; that some of the plaintiffs and the Grand Master made objection and with a view of avoiding all possible friction that meeting was adjourned without any business being done. Immediately following that, Attorney Benjamin L. Gaskins, represented the Grand Lodge, and Houston and Houston, representing the New Masonic Hall Corporation, met with the opposing factions and attempted to reach some agreement.

The officers of the Hall Corporation seriously took the matter under advisement, cancelled the propositions contained in the proposed agreement upon which no understanding could be reached, and offered in good faith another agreement which a majority of the trustees signed, to have it considered by the Grand Lodge officers as a basis for settlement. The proposed agreement provided for an audit of all the affairs of the corporation by a disinterested auditor, to be selected by counsel. Counsel for the corporation delivered the same to the attorney representing the Grand Lodge who in turn delivered it to the Grand Master for consideration by him and those who had been acting with him. The officers of the New Masonic Hall Corporation thought, they say, that the matter was approaching settlement, and that the Grand Lodge officers were considering the proposed agreement and they expected hourly to hear from them when, to their utter astonishment and without previous notice, they were served with papers on March 17 in the suit which is now pending in the courts. The corporation, the officers say, was acting in good faith and in all fairness they were entitled to notice that their proposition was rejected before suit was instituted by the plaintiffs.

Rev. Waldron Denounces Lynchings (Continued from page 1) with outraging a white woman, could ever be acquitted in a Virginia court, and if convicted, they know he could by no means escape the gallows, and they also knew that no mob of colored people would sink so low as to seke to deliver from prison by force, one of their number who had been charged with raping a woman. The court, the juries and all the machinery of government are in the hands of the white men of Sussex County—the accused was unknown, poor, unarmed, without friends or money and was black; these things made the lynching of Jordon a crime most cruel and bloody and without the least excuse." Dr. Waldron said, "The time has come to serve notice upon bloodthirsty, lawless and murderous men everywhere that they shall no longer be allowed to sow the wind of crime and violence to be reaped by their children in the shape of a whirlwind of destruction, indescribable suffering and death." "Punish crime of every kind and by whomsoever committed," said he, "but let it be done by law and according to law." "Stop making America the land of murder, savagery and lawlessness before a just God arises in His fury and sweeps our Nation off the face of the earth." LOCAL GIRL WEDS Miss Mayme J.

Box 217, Washington, D.C. ) Once my hair was anything but long and silky soft as it is now, and my complexion was sallow, and there were often unsightly pimples on my face. One day I heard of Exelento Quinine Pomade for the hair and purchased a jar. Almost immediately it stopped all dandruff, made my hair grow long, soft and fine, and gave it a delightful sheen. Because of the perfectly wonderful results I obtained from Exelento Quinine Pomade, I purchased a jar of Exelento Skin Beautifier. It changed my sallow complexion to a clear, lovely skin, glowing with health. For pimples and other skin blemishes, it has no equal. If I am as beautiful as people say, it is all due to Exelento preparations.
