W. B. & A. Runs Jim Crow Train Bad Elements in New Advisory Council First in Local Circulation. Vol. 4, No. 46 W. B. Bad E "BOWIE SPECIAL" FOR WHITES ONLY SAYS CONDUCTOR Suits Totaling $30,000 Filed as Result of Discrimination Three suits for $10,000 damages each will be filed this week in the District Supreme Court against the Washington, Baltimore and Annapolis Electric Railroad Company as a result of its refusal to permit colored persons to ride on the Bowie Special, a direct train from the Terminal at Twelfth Street and New York Avenue, Northwest, to the Prince George race track at Bowie, Md. The suits will be brought by Thomas H R. Clark and Charles H. Flagg, real estate dealers with offices at 810 F Street, Northwest, and J. T. Settle, an attorney, with offices at 613 F Street, Northwest. Besides the Washington, Baltimore and Annapolis Electric Railroad Company, J. G. Faircloth, an employee of the company, will be named as a defendant. Mr. Settle states that last Saturday they purchased three tickets for the "Bowie Special" from Washington to Prince George's Park, Md., and presented themselves to board the train. The agents of the company, he says, refused to permit them to board the train and advised them that colored people were not allowed to ride the "Bowie Special." Employees of the company, Mr. Settle says, barred the entrance to the train and threatened to have them arrested if they attempted to board the train. A refund of their money was offered, but they declined and kept the tickets, which will be used as exhibits in the suit to be filed this week. In their bills of complaint they will declare that because of this discrimination on account of race or color, they were subjected to and suffered great humiliation and shame, great injury in peace of mind and mental anguish, and their nervous systems were shocked and their reputations seriously injured and impaired, and will ask the court to award them each the sum of $10,000 as actual and compensatory damages. Dr. George E. Cannon Dead Jersey City, N. J.—Dr. George E. Cannon, wealthy physician and race leader of that state, died at his late residence here after an accident which occurred one week before. Dr. Cannon was one of the best known men in the East. The accident occurred in front of his home. He was hit by a bus from which he had just alighted. Dr. Cannon was born at Carlisle, S.C., July 7, 1869. He received his A.B. from Lincoln University in 1893; was also honored with LL.D. from same institution in 1914. He graduated in medicine from New York Homeopathic Medical College and Flower Hospital in 1900. He married Miss Genevieve Wilkinson of Washington, D.C., April 10, 1901. They had two children, George D. and Gladys W. Dr. Cannon was a member of several fraternal organizations and civic associations. He was one of the leaders of the Lincoln University Alumni Association. WANTED--At Once! 10 women who are desirous of permanent part time employment. Pleasant work. Good Pay.

The company is headed by Mr. Anthony Overton, who is also president of Douglass National Bank and the Overton Hygienic Mfg. Co., manufacturers of High Brown Toilet Preparations. It has a capital of $100,000 and a surplus of $60,000. LOCAL BOY WINS HIGHEST HONORS ON TYPEWRITER In winning the diamond medal given by the Underwood Typewriter Company, Cortez W. Peters, of 1115 Third Street, N.W., has won every worthwhile medal given by any typewriter company for speed and accuracy. Young Peters, who graduated from Dunbar High School two years ago, took the Underwood test March 26th at the local office of the company. In this test he maintained a net speed of 109 five stroke words a minute for —Photo by Scurlock CORTEZ W. PETERS 30 minutes. This gave him an average of 9 over the necessary number needed to qualify for the medal. Cortez W. Peters is the 11th person in the United States to win this medal and is the first colored. The medal was awarded to him by G. H. Ward, assistant manager of the Washington office of the Underwood company, at a general assembly in the auditorium of Dunbar High last Monday. He is the first student to ever win this medal; all other winners being professionals. No other person in the District is a holder of one of these medals. Prof. J. C. Wright of the Dunbar faculty discovered the latent typing ability of Mr. Peters and trained him for his various contests. Other medals held by Peters for typewriting (Continued on page 5) WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, APRIL 11, 1925 While playing baseball against the Howard University team last Saturday afternoon, several students of Storer College, Harpers Ferry, W.Va., suffered losses of clothing and jewelry when the dressing room at Howard University was rifled. The Storer College students, who reported losses to the police, were James Mitchell, John Mackay, Frank Murray, Uriah Brown, Lorenzo Ford, Gohen Jeffries and James Robinson. The heaviest loser was Mitchell. He reported to the police the loss of a threepiece Boston lavender suit, a pair of Flosheim shoes, a black belt and a tie-pin. Mackey reported stolen a navy blue suit, a white shirt and a bunch of keys; Frank Murray a light brown overcoat; Brown, a blue cap; Ford, a pair of light-gray trousers and a belt; Jeffries, a light brown overcoat, and Robinson, a light gray cap. Detectives Cox and King of the headquarters force were assigned to the case. They were unable to get very much information concerning the robbery because the Storer College team left town before they had an opportunity to be interviewed. Late Monday afternoon, President Durkee of Howard University was asked for a statement concerning the theft. He said that it had not yet been reported to him and referred the reporter to Louis L. Watson, head of the department of physical education. In an interview Mr. Watson stated that it was his belief that the job was pulled by outsiders. He said that a gang of fellows hang around following sports at the university and he thinks they got the lay of the land and when everybody was absorbed in the game they made their haul. The Storer College boys dressed in the gymnasium. Their clothing was stolen between the time they went on the field and the close of the sixth inning. One of the boys went over to se if things were as they left them. He discovered the theft and immediately reported it. The game was halted for an investigation. Coach Watson expressed the opinion that the theft was committed by persons who climbed over a garage in the rear of the building and through a window into the gymnasium. Several strangers he said were reported to have been hanging around the building before and during the game. Improvements Underway at Suburban Gardens The first work intended to transform Suburban Gardens into a miniature fairyland was started this week. New asphalt roads will be built throughout the gardens, making it unnecessary for patrons of the gardens to walk on hard cinders or muddy ground. Many of the ugly hills that heretofore marred the pleasure visitors, will also disappear. Painters, carpenters, electricians and other workers will begin next week their part in making this amusement park one of the most beautiful in the country. Manager F. Morris Murray has planned many improvements and beautifications that, when completed, will make Suburban Gardens truly a place for amusement and pleasure. The park will open sometime around the 15th of May. As now planned, the opening program will be one most novel ever presented in this section of the country.

Mr. Hayes was presented with the medal by Walter Damrosch, conductor of the ROLAND HAYES New York Symphony Orchestra on board the Cunarder Aquitania, on which Mr. Hayes sailed for another tour of Europe. This is the tenth medal presented by Mr. Spingarn. Other winners were: Prof. E. E. Just; late Col. Chas. Young; Harry T. Burleigh; William Stanley Braithwaite; Archibald H. Grimke; William E. B. DuBois; Chas. S. Gilpin; late Mrs. Mary B. Talbert and Prof. Geo. W. Carver. DRIVE NORTHWARD BEGINS Negroes from the Southern States have begun their spring, 1925, exodus heading northward into Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Jersey, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, and points farther west, according to information given out by the U. S. Department of Labor. Miss Burroughs Has Only School For Race Girls Outside of the South (By "WOW") Miss Burroughs in a very strong appeal sent out last week set forth the following facts about The National Training School for Women and Girls. These facts are food for serious thought and action. She says the National Training School for Women and Girls is the only boarding school for colored girls outside of the South—an area in which over two million Negroes now live. The continued growth and influx of the Negro population in northern, eastern and western sections constitute proportionally an increase in educational needs and obligation to provide a school adequate in size and equipment. Few parents living outside of the South send their daughters back to southern schools. The National Training School is strategically located. It stresses the importance of the development of character, it gives the girl her academic training, and a trade. The second fact to which the president of the institution calls attention is that thousands of Negro mothers are bread winners, and must be away from their teen-age girls all day and a part of the night. The school gives the instruction that these mothers should, but, for economic reasons, cannot give their daughters. At some period between the ages of thirteen and seventeen, girls should be given training in institutions operated particularly for them. It is during the adolescent period that they need particular guidance. For their proper training and development courses closely adjusted to their special and particular needs are best, and a school that gives attention to the specific work of educating and training them, are essential for the development of the highest type of character. Careful investigation shows that the women who are rendering the most effective service in slum, social settlement, reformatory and mission work were trained in schools for girls.

EANING COMMISSION REPORT ON ENIL FORM OF GOVERNMENT FOR VIRGIN ISLAND Has Only School Girls Outside South BRIDE CHARGED WITH MURDER An indictment charging murder In the first degree was returned by the grand jury here yesterday against Virginia May Burke, a youthful bride of only a few months. She is charged with having fatally shot Joseph Austin Young at 1066 Bladensburg Road, Northeast, on February 27 last. He died on March 9 at Casualty Hospital. Mrs. Burke was married only shortly before Christmas. Prior to her marriage she had been going with Young. On the day of the alleged shooting, Young called at her residence, 626 Thirteenth Street, Northeast, and, she says, threatened her. An hour after he left, she followed him to his home and shot him almost without warning. LITTLE DONE BY COOLIDGE IN FIRST MONTH One entire month of the new Coolidge administration has passed. On every hand, Colored America is asking, "What is President Coolidge going to do?" There is no one hereabouts who can let one into even the outer crust of the deep secret. President Coolidge is "powerful in his silence." The situation has already placed a number of the allied forces—or allied factions—on the offensive. The best assurances that they can offer to the querulous is "Be patient, you know it takes time, and the President is not Washington's Best Advertising Medium. ain ouncil RACE JOINS NEW COUNCIL WITHOUT RATIFICATION Several Associations are Making Fight for Residential Segregation The proposed Citizens' Advisory Council of the District of Columbia which was suggested by Commissioner Bell, will have a smaller representation of Negroes than any other officially recognized civic body. According to announcement made by Jesse C. Suter, in whose hands the whole matter has been placed, there will be seven white representatives and only two colored. This representation is much unlike the School Board, a body created by law on which there are three colored and six whites. So far as The Tribune has been able to find out, the colored federation had a very minor, if any part at all, in shaping the plans for this new organization. Not any of the citizens' organizations have stated as to whether they desired to take part in such an organization. However, Mr. G. H. Richardson, president of the colored federation, has issued a request that each association call a special meeting for the purpose of naming their candidate so that a final election can be held as soon as possible. Many of the organizations do not know just what the real function of this body will be. The hostility of many of the white civic associations to the rights of Negroes has caused the colored associations to be rather dubious about joining without knowing fully where they stand. The Federation of Citizens' Associations of which Jesse C. Suter is president, refused to permit the colored associations to join the federation. Many of the white bodies have gone on record for residential segregation, in fact when the Stanton Park Citizens' Association met this week to approve the advisory council, they appointed a committee to formulate plans to prevent Negroes from buying property in that section. With representatives from such associations on the advisory board, it can readily be seen as to what their action will be. Several of the associations will meet next week to nominate their candidates. Pres. James B. Dudley Dead Pres. James B. Dudley Dead Greensboro, N.C.—President James Benson Dudley, of the Agricultural and Mechanical College of this city died at 9:45 p.m. Saturday night, April 4. About eighteen months ago he suffered a stroke, and since then he has been in failing health. He was buried Tuesday. Prof. Dudley was born at Wilmington, N.C., November 2, 1859. Graduated from Institute for Colored Youth at Philadelphia; later attended Shaw University; A.M. Livingstone, 1897; LL.D. Wilberforce University, 1900. Married Susie W. Sampson in 1884. They had two children. He was well known in North Carolina. one to be rushed." To this the quizzical individual replies: "Sounds natural, heard that four years ago." The biggest piece of news going out of the White House recently is the announcement that the President is to spend his summer in Massachusetts. This is being played up with characteristic journalistic enterprise. Pictures of the "Summer White House" and all.

Scientists admit they are "germ" diseases and to cure them the germ must surely be destroyed. There's no longer reason for having poor, unhealthy scalps and dull lifeless hair. It has been proven that MADAM C. J.

One reads a different story each day in the white dailies. None of them can be verified. More and more it appears that the aim is to keep the colored fighters away from the different titles. Big money rules the boxing game. Right now Dempsey is posing for the movies. Suppose he would sign for a fight with Wills and be knocked for a goal, how valuable would the picture-be? Nothing we see in the papers about a Wills-Dempsey fight gives us a thrill.

Giants’ ‘Training eamp. The good will and support of local baseball fans will go with “Old Reliable.” ‘Taylor’s effort to put Washington on the colored baseball map although’ shertlived will not soon be forgotten. The odds against Taylor were too great. The need of a playing field and the education of local fans to ap- preciate colored players must come gradually and money and time must be sacrificed before this can come about. Taylor's effort was not in vain. We hope that in the near future he will again be at the helm of a local pro elub. ‘And in the meanwhile we will be pulling for Harrisburg to cop the flag this year. WEST VIRGINIA TOURNAMENT NOTEWORTHY AFFAIR In the opinion of this column the West Virginia High School basketball tcurnament held at the West Virginia Collegiate Institute was the feature event of the past basketball season. This statement is made in due con- sideration of the Celtic-Renaissance game and other league association affairs. Figures show that ninety-two youths from all parts of West Vir- ginia got into action during the tournament. The smoothness and manner in which the games were handled, the sportsmanship of the participants speaks well for the officials and coaches. Other states should follow West Virginia's example and promote similar carnivals and compete for national honors. If our high school and collegiate athletics were clean the taint of professionalism that now endangers amateurism could be easily eliminated. AT THE CLOSE OF A GOOD COURT SEASON On the whole we have had a fairly good basketball year here. Competition was brisk and wholesome. The Aleoes rose to great heights through vic- tories over Leondi and the Baltimore Athenians and Scholastics. The How- ard fraternal league and Y. M. C. A. senior and junior leagues were other praise worthy jeontributions. The work of the officials was most too loose. The first game of the Aleo-Carlisle series, the Howard-West Virginia, and Howard-Morehouse contests, were three of the best handled games on the season’s calendar. It is hoped that in the future teams will employ officials for a series—if a series is to be played—and avoid changing before the se- vies is over. The unsportsmanlike actions of certain members of the Howard squad toward officials during ‘the Howard-Morehouse game, the misunderstanding between the Aleo and Loendi teams which caused the lat- ter to make a trip here with a dark house awaiting were regrettable incidents. “THE DRESSMAKER FROM [and daring has been attained.

At the time of the burning of the disease-laden house on Bladensburg Road, we lamented the fact that there were no agencies devoted solely to welfare service. We admitted the existence of the several religious, fraternal, civic and social organizations which have a branch of welfare service; but which restrict their charitable activities to their respective membership. We realize the amount of time it would require a newly organized welfare council to broaden and to finance itself to function effectively in a city the size of Washington. Therefore, we wish to make a suggestion. We have 138 Negro churches, several religious societies and many other organization which, to some degree, do welfare work. Some of these are directed by competent individuals—persons well qualified to handle a much larger field than that to which they are restricted. If allowed time to study and plan, we are of the opinion that a movement for better teamwork by their respective charitable and social bodies, public and private, will take shape in the formation of a general clearing house, whose main objective will be the co-ordination of the services of the many agencies engaged in welfare activities in this city. This council may include as officials, representatives of private organizations and of the public, and start out with an organization chart designed to make effective use of all the social machinery in being. Its task would be correlating the efforts in a vast field, guiding expenditure to advantage, cutting out duplications and filling up the gaps in the work of social betterment. It is not suggested that the individual charities should surrender their autonomy, but that they enter heartily in the scheme of co-operating their welfare activities and allowing the council to serve as a meeting ground for community planning and betterment. The general trend of philanthropic work in large cities is toward federation; economy in administration dictates such a course. The question of the community chest is one of the possibilities which such a council will consider. The whole object of the movement which the council should exemplify should be to make for the highest degree of harmonious and salutary work of all the organizations which have an essential unity of purpose. From the standpoint of the donor to charity, it would be of manifest advantage to have available a source of authoritative information and advice. The public has a feeling, fostered by many impositions and futilities, that a great deal of the money bestowed with philanthropic intent is wasted. A general clearing house, a welfare council, could do much to fortify good will by its promotion of able management, of insistence on standards as execting as those of any successful business enterprise.

The future success of a nation or of a race depends upon the good or ill effects of the training which the growing generation receives. With so much depending upon the class room, it is incumbent upon the respective communities to take an interest in the selection and election of those who are to be responsible for the type of training and the conditions under which youths are to receive their instructions. It is not enough to merely place a teacher in the school house. It is essential that we keep in close contact with the one to whom we have intrusted the shaping of the minds of cur young, and we see that constructive work is done. Nor is it sufficient merely to have representation on the Board of Education. If we hope to obtain the best results we must interest ourselves enough to see to it that those who are supposed to represent us do so in fact. The District Board of Education is composed of nine members, three of whom are Negroes, appointed for a term of three years. The Judges of the Supreme Court of the District make up the appointments. The purpose of the apportionment of three members of the board to our race seems to be not so much to serve the best interests of the Race as it is to appease the Negro populace of Washington. As a sequence, the selections for membership appear to be made not with the idea of selecting Negroes who know well the conditions and have the best interests of the Race at heart; but merely—or at least chiefly—for the purpose of making Colored Washingtonians to feel that they are obtaining a square deal in all things appertaining to better conditions for their schools. The appointing officers' selections are necessarily affected or rather colored by what they observe of the Negro in their court rooms. Not that they seem so disgusted with the scenes as to try to bring about an improvement, but they, like the large majority of white men, take the lower element as a mirror of the whole Race. They form the erroneous opinion from the scenes they see, that the Negroes, as a whole, are shiftless, purposeless individuals. Give them a little something and much "lip music" and they will be satisfied. A crass example of this may be seen in the appointment last year of Rev. F. I. A. Bennett. While we do not question the integrity and competency of Rev. Bennett, we do object to the haphazard, catch-as-catch-can method employed in making the appointments. Reverend Bennett has never distinguished himself in showing that he has our interest at heart, nor in demonstrating his ability to interpret and plan for our common good. He was not a candidate, did not know that his name appeared on the list until informed of the appointment. Just as he was appointed, any other person could have been given the office, who, in the course of three years, might do more distractively than two could do constructively in six years. What we, as citizens, want is the permission to supply names of persons whom, we are satisfied, are best qualified to obtain the conditions we desire. We feel that we are competent to shape our own destiny. We need not leave our future to the haphazard disposition of our white brother. So convinced are we that we are right in this position that we will leave no stones unturned to obtain our desire. We are determined to have representation on the District Board of Education which really represents. Capital $100,000 Surplus $60,000 THE WASHINGTON TRIBONE SATURDAY. APRIL 11. 1925 Something of Interest Something of Interest By I. L. PARKER History of Chapman Plan Your Life's Work man was convicted Saturday last of first degree sentenced to die before the hour of sunrise, the day of June, 1925. Upon learning the verdict, he have said: "It's what I expected. The men on that judicated before they went into the box. The public Gerald Chapman was convicted Saturday last of first degree murder and sentenced to die before the hour of sunrise, the twenty-fifth day of June, 1925. Upon learning the verdict, he is alleged to have said: "It's what I expected. The men on that jury were prejudiced before they went into the box. The public had made me a super-bandit. They didn't convict the accused. They convicted a man named Chapman." Convicting Chapman for the crime for which he has just been tried does not relieve society of the tragedy for which he stands. Guilty or innocent, his criminal record compared with the mental capacity that he revealed on the witness-stand calls forth a feeling of pity for the twist in his nature which made him what he is.

Engineers plan new machines, architects design new buildings; but seldom do they do more than put their plans on paper. It is others who do the work. The engineer and the architect might be able to convey their visions by words, but the transfer to papers saves repeating their advice and thus enables the workmen, who are to follow, to see the picture.

Endless work-hours of it. All details worked out so that the vision may live, if needed, for many generations. As there is much work to transfer to paper the vision of a new building, so there is work needed to transfer to your subconscious mind a great vision of some undertaking you hope to achieve.

But when this partner of yours understands the vital importance of your task by your repeated and reiterated orders, it starts in to shape the days and hours to produce your desire. It makes engagements for you days in advance. It brings you in contact with those who can help you. It reaches out in the unseen for advice to help you carry out your work. But if you tell the subconscious mind once or twice, and then forget it, this partner thinks your demands are not so important after all. If you demand health and youth and keep on demanding it day after day, your subconscious mind starts at home in the body and marshals the billions of cells to work on the-plans of health and youth. First of all, you must see the vision, then order and repeat the orders to the subconscious mind and it in turn will marshal these billions of workers to carry out your orders. Never stop when the work is half done; keep up the orders until it is finished. Thought is a wonderful builder. Not rambling thought, but positive thought, persistent thought enables you to build, not only material structures, but health, youth and success.

Adams A MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT COOLIDGE Engrossed by the pressure of worldly affairs, we are too prone to disregard the vital importance to life of the fine arts. It is in order that these may exist, that we rise above the field, the shop and the market place, take out of their bounty there may be woven into life the richness of increasing beauty, the grace of a higher nobility. It is through art that people find the expression of their better, truer selves. Sometimes it is expressed in literature, sometimes in sculpture and architecture, sometimes in painting, but of all the fine arts there is none that makes such a universal and compelling appeal as music. No other expression of beauty finds such readily and naturally enobling responses in the heart of mankind. It is the art especially representative of democracy, of the hope of the world. When at the dawn of creation, as it was revealed to the universe, that good was to triumph over evil, the thanksgiving and praise found expression in music, the stars sang together for joy. CALVIN COOLIDGE Special Message to "Musical America." HUHN URGES MUSIC FOR THE MASSES Bruno Huhn, American composer who gave a recital for the benefit of the MacDowell Colony in this city a few days ago made some striking and forceful expressions on music while here. "The most important factor in the development of American music is to interest the children of this generation in it," said he. "No parent ever consults his child as to whether or not he wants to study mathematics, yet if the child whines about the piano practice the parent says with a finality that is disheartening, "My child doesn't like music." Every child should have at least two years of piano work, because that instrument HOMES FOR RENT teaches the fundamentals that can be applied later to other instrumental study, or to singing if it is found the child's desire and talents lie in another musical direction. Piano study is never wasted." This fact certainly needs stressing to parents of our race particularly as too many of them take music study as a luxury more or less but it is fundamentally a necessity in an educational sense as well as cultural. "If only the young ambitious musicians and singers would realize how necessary detailed knowledge is to them. No student preparing to be a doctor or an engineer or a lawyer dreams of achieving anything with out four to eight years of grinding study. Why should a singer, composer, or pianist believe he can accomplish artistic wonders with only two or three years of sudy? Yet they do Superficiality is the curse of American music today. The place to start is with the little children. They should be made to study music just as they are made to study reading writing and arithmetic. It is exactly as essential." That's the rockbeef of the whole situation. It couldn't be stated more effectively. Mr. Huhn concludes with this pointed statement: "Another phase of American music progress that needs sponsoring is the encouragement of more constructive participation in music rather than more music for people to listen to. They should encourage choral societies and local orchestras." We have urged these things more than once but we still are asleep and heaven only knows when the awakening shall be. Mr. Huhn's comments are worth digesting to say the least.

Turner—3LF Carriér of news and knowledge, Instrument of Public Service, Sond of the scattered family, Promoter of Peace and Goodwill a mong men and al! nation, ‘The above is an inscription on the wail of the Washington Post Office, and how true it is. When radio made its initial appear- ance, in the latter part of the last cen- tury, it promised to be a unique in- strument of communication, today it plays a great part in our everyday lives, and in the future its role will be even greater. When the small group of interested, yet skeptical, people assembled in the shed which sheltered the first suc- cessful radio-telegraph transmitter and receiver, their eyes were wide- stretched im amazement, wondering whether the perserverant young Ital- ian, Marconi, could successfully send & message shooting from Boulogne, France’ across the channel to Dover, England. Awe stricken, the assem- bly witnessed the epoch making suc- cessful demonstration. Radio-telegraphy had proved itself @ relinble instrument of communica- tion. But did one person, in that au- dience, picture radio as we know it teday? Doubtless, is~the answer. Some may have dreamed of radio Huking the nations as it is now doing, but it’ is doubtless whether Marconi, nt, dreamed of radiotelephony. St as the telephone, in public use; ‘wes destined to take the place of the ‘telegraph, so was the radio-telephone destined to take the place of Marconi’s wedio-telegraph. S After man had successfully hurled his veice through space, from place to place, and .around the world, he dreamed of extending his vision over space by radio. Resultingly, one of ‘the most recent radio inventions is the “television” device. Such an in- strument, at present, though it has proved that it is a success, is almost as unstable as the early Marconi ra- Gio-telegraph, but in a few years it, ike the radio-telephone used in to- day's broadcasting, will be playing ‘ts part in our everyday life- Radio inventors have not refused ‘to consider the possible transmission of electrical power over space without ‘the aid of wires. The radio engi- meers of the Bureau of Standards, ave successfully run a small mmoter on current transmitted from an RADIO RADIO experimental radio station a quarter of a mile distant. At this point, one may picture our street cars of the fature running on apparently noth- ‘ing—no unsightly trolley system or underground plow or deadly third- rail, f Among the recent radio develop- ments, is the “directional” system of ‘radio-communieation which plays an ‘mportant part when one desires to talk with one particular radio sta- ion and at the same time prevent ‘others from hearing. ‘When I dream of a day of the dis- tant future, I see electrical convey- ance vehicles using radio-power; I see the housewife using the electrical ar- ticles of utility without the present troublesome power-wires; I see the business man transacting business with men of France and England while e isin America; I see him looking the other man in the face though. he s hundreds of miles away. When he has finished with his business affairs, ne turns to the radio apparatus and calls his wife who answers—he sees che whole family and talks with them and still no one else can hear his con- versation. I see the police depart- nents flashing the pictures and fin- ger-prints of escaped criminals from place to place in less time than it takes to snap @ finger. And all this will be done by radio. Hence it"behooves the youths of to- tay to delve into the beautiful mys- series of radio science and have a sharesin the development of the pro- sress of the world. | Perhaps you may have a bit of erit- icismm to offer—if so, Mr. Turner is anxious to have your ideas presented ‘to him.

WASHINGTON HIGH SCHOOL COLORED RADIO CLUB In the: latter part of the fall of 1923, a:elub for the study-and devel- opment of radio-technology was or- zanized at the Armstrong Technical High School. After organization, the lub became a local chapter of the Interscholastic Radio Association. of America (I. R. A. A.) which has branches at the leading technical schools of the country. While asso- ciated with this national organization (1924) the Armstrong ehapter pre- sented at station WRC of this city, a program of dance music rendered by an orchestra composed of students from the two local colored high schools. . After the summer vacation in 1924, the club was reorganized and with- drawing their membership from L R: A. A. became the “Armstrong Radio Club,” electing as officers: Rufus P. NOTE THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, APRIL 11, 1925 «i QU ESO ¥S AND ANSWERS aner, president; Herman S$. Bur- ss. vice-president; Deonard Coates, cretavy, and William F. Stokes, tasucer; Mr. Harold A. Haynes, fac- Hty advisor. . Peeing the need of au exclusive membersiip pin, the club Iaunched a contest for a design for the pin and was deluged with drawings.. Several teachers, connected with the drawing department of Armstrong, acted ‘as judges and rendered their decisicy very early. After the Christmas holidays and with the coming of the New Yeat (1925), the Armstrong Radio Club be- gan plans for a radio show scheduled to be staged at Armstrong Higt School, April 22 to 24, inclusive. ‘At this exposition, there will be ex hibited work of the members, togeth er with exhibits loaned by local radi merchants. A special feature of the exposition will be the practical dem onstration of a device used for trans: mitting and receiving photographs by means of radio. This “Tetephoto” device was buil by members of the club. During the past season, the Arm strong Radio Club has made great strides and promises to bring muel credit to Armstrong Technical Sehoo in the future: S.0.S. By Henry 8. Morris ~ (A prize story) T was the wireless operator on the teamship “Belle” when she collided with an iceberg. On this memorable night I was busy receiving and send- ing commercial messages and loca- sion reports with other ships and sta- sions on shore, About midnight | urned into my bunk for the night. 1 was dreaming of the life back home and what I would do when I arrived there and suddenly I awoke. A trem oy ran through the ship and a terrific crashing ensued. -Rushing out om th deck I saw that we had collided witt a huge iceberg. As you undoubtedly know, it is : _hip’s wireless operator's duty to com mynieate with other ships at a tim when his ship is in distress. Hurriedly returning to the wireles abin L sent out what is probably th ‘most djréful of all radio calls—S. O. S —S. 0. S—S. 0. S. The first ship t ‘answer my call was the steamshi; ‘Radio Editor: Which is the better radio receiver, the cabinet-enclosed or the plain base and panel set? I have often wondered if the cabinet had any effect on the working of the instruments. In your opinion, does. not the average radio fan find radio very.instructive as well as entertaining? (Miss) SADIE J. PRIMUS The eabinet, directly, has nothing to do with the functioning of the ap- paratus. In the eabinet-type receiv- cr, the instruments are well protected from dust, while in the panel-base set dust may collect on the instruments and sometimes render them ineffi- cient (as is the case when dust gets between the plates of variable conden- sers)- In addition to protecting the apparatus from dust, the cabinet greatly improves the appearance of a radio receiver. In my opinion, the average radio fan derives much valuable informa- tion from both experimenting if the radio field, and listening to instruc- tive lectures, on the air. Radio Editor: | Why is the Code, referred to in your recent article, terméd Interna- tional Morse? This was not brought out in the article. | —JOHN P. JONES Professor S. F. B. Morse created the original sound-code for use with his. invention, the telegraph, hence the name Morse. * When radiotelegraphy became an international instrument of commu- nication it was soon seen that some standard code was needed for inter- national use, hence a standard one was devised and called the International Morse Code, and the original telegra- phic code became known as the American Morse Code. Radio Editor: Who is accredited as having been the first to transmit photos by elec- tricity or radio? —CHESTER W. PATTERSON The December 1924 issue of the “Experimenter” magazine says that Blakewell of England was the first to transmit and receive pictures by elec- tricity. His experiments were all con- ducted with wires. The most success- ful radio-transmission and reception was carried on last year by the Radio “Arundel” The “Arunde’* immed jately proceeded toward our locality To make matiers werse a dense foy arose and the “Arunde!” had to reduce her speed for the fear of hitting some- hing. On ows ship we began exploding de- aotation bombs and firing sky-rock- ets so that the “Arundel” would know our exact position. I had sent them a radio message telling our disabled condition, but since we had no lights docause of the collision, they had to go slow for fear of running into us. Faintly. I heard an answering bomb andw as able to tell from what direc- tion it came. I went back to the wire- less cabin and transmitted steering directions for the “Arundel,” I was able to do this because-we were able to eheck our direction and bearing by the bomb exploded on board the “Arundel.” Within a half an hour we heard the foghorn of the “Arundel” and then 1 sent another message telling them they were on the right course and to come slowly as we had no lights, Fif- teen minutes later the “Arundel” came alongside us. After officers of the two ships conferred, the crews of the ships began transferring the passen- gers of the “Belle” to the “Arundel.” Throughout the night and half of the next day both erews worked untiring. ly. When the fog lifted there was one of the greatest concourses of ships ever seen on the seas. Every vessel equipped with wireless that happened to be within a three-hundred mile ra- dius, overhearing the exchange ot messifges between the “Belle” and the “Arundel,” had gathered to be-of what assistanee they could. During all of this time the “Belle’ |had been slowly sinking, After th | passengers had all been removed the captain gave orders to abandon th: \ ship. Everyone tried to persuade thé {captain to abandon the ship with u: but he refused preferring to hold ts the tradition of the seas. After wi [had put off and gone a sufficient dis | taneé so as not to be sucked down by the sinking of the ship we waited fo | the ship to go down, so that we coul rescue the captain, We found th Jcaptain: clinging’ toya floating erat | after the “Belle” had gone down ani |we hauled him in. \ | ‘Thus ends my story which show: | what a benefit to man is the radio. ‘Corporation of America, and the American Telephone and Telegraph Company of this country at which time the picture of American and English politicians were “flashed across the Atlantic. COMMUNICATIONS | WANTS RADIO COLUMN CONTINUED ‘To the Editor: My dear Sir: T have been a regular reader of the Radio Column since its beginning and find the articles yery interesting, It ‘is particularly fortunate for the Tri- ‘bune, the leading Colored newspaper, to run this weekly feature and above all to have a young man, as the edi- tor, who has accomplished so much in the field of radio-technology and yet a high school pupil. | In my opinion, his sehool—the Arm- strong institution—deserves credit as well as does the young: man himself. rn reer are destined to be the serious-thinking men of the future, I think the young radio editor—the youngest in the country, I am inclined to believe— ‘should be encouraged by the citizens of the District of Columbia as well as of other cities. At this point, T most emphatically ‘express my hope that the Radio Col- ‘umn will be continued in the future— and if possible in some part of the paper other than the “Children’s Page.” I say this because the aver- age person may carelessly think that the column is not worthy of their reading because it appears on a child- ren’s page. Very truly yours, J. ST-ELMO BYNG. 2469 Church St., N.W. | COMPLIMENTARY WORDS. To the Editor, Dear Sir: I have read with interest the ar. ticles which have appeared in your paper by Mr. Rufus P. Turner on “Ra- dio.” They are extremely interesting very much to the point, and. should hold the interest of ‘radio fans. 1 hope you will see fit to continue this valuable department. Yours truly, W.

The State provides an appropriation for school facilities, the appropriation is distributed in proportion to the number of children of school age. If the required number is obtained another school building south of King Street is possible which should be appreciated by parents living in the southern end of town. Especially will it benefit the smaller children and relieve the congested conditions now prevailing in the lower grades at Parker-Gray School. Some parents and guardians seemed inclined not to give names of children. Don't withhold them, the more the better. If the appropriation be not large enough to warrant another building, they will add to Parker Gray.

Robinson, at 241 Elm Street, Northwest, where, she says, frequently during her marital life she has been forced to seek asylum because of her husband's cruelty. After their marriage, she says, they made their home at various places in the District of Columbia. They were ordered to vacate the homes of Augustine Parker on Twelfth Street, Northwest, and of Mrs. Anna J. Webster, 2305 M Street, Northwest, she says, because their landlords would not tolerate her husband's disorderly conduct. In the spring of 1922, she alleges, he beat her with a hair brush. In the fall of 1922, he assaulted her until it was necessary to have the officers at No. 3 police precinct come to the house to quiet him. In March, 1923, he kicked her upon the legs and thighs, she says, until she was forced to drop to the floor in a crouching position to keep him from kicking her in the stomach. She alleges that he has repeatedly grabbed her by the shoulders, held her in an iron-like grip and has spit full in her face. On one occasion, she says, he burned her hair with his cigarette. He is employed at the Naval Medical School as a watchman at a salary of $108 a month. Service, however, Attorney Houston stated, was obtained on him at Occoquan where he has been sent by the Government for some violation of the law. Mrs. Carter is an employee of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. She asks the court for a limited divorce and alimony. Cooking Hints For Every Housewife By Samuel M.

Because of the perfectly wonderful results I obtained from Exelento Quinine Pomade, I purchased a jar of Exelento Skin Beautifier.
