POLICEMAN KILLS EX-SOLDIER First in Local Circulation. Vol. 4, No. 49 GARVEY GROUP DOUBLE-CROSSED ON ENGAGEMENT A supposed engagement of a delegation representing the Universal Negro Improvement Association with the President did not materialize last Tuesday. It was reported that such a delegation would be presented at the White House on Tuesday by Representative Royal H. Weller, Democrat, New York. They were to petition the President to grant a pardon to Marcus Garvey, president of the Universal Negro Improvement Association who is serving a sentence of five years in the federal penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga., for using the mails to defraud in connection with the sale of stock in the Black Star Steamship Line. Representative Weller stated that the committee presumed that tentative arrangements had been made for them to see the President in Garvey's behalf, but as a matter of fact no such arrangement had been made. He further stated that the President will not listen to any plea for executive clemency for Garvey until petitions for him have been submitted to the Department of Justice and passed upon by the Attorney General. Representative Weller said that the committee held a meeting in a New York on Monday night and he was awaiting a report of the proceedings to determine just what action would be taken toward seeking a pardon for Garvey. A. M. E. SELECTS FREDERICK FOR NEXT CONFERENCE The A. M. E. Conference which met in Baltimore, Md., last week, presided over by Bishop J. Albert Johnson, did not make any important changes in the churches in this district. Practically all of the very large local churches retained their same pastors. The only notably change here was the moving of Rev. M. J. Key, winner of the Mme. C. J. Walker Trip to Palestine, from Turner Memorial Church to Lincoln, Md. The reports of the conference this year were the largest ever made. Dollar money went over $10,000, while education and missions money also showed marked increases. The appointments for this district are: Rev. J. W. Norris, Presiding Elder; Metropolitan, Rev. Chas. E. Stewart; Brown Memorial, Rev. O. E. Jones; St. Paul, Rev. P. A. Scott; Campbell, Rev. C. H. Wesley; Allen (Garfield) Rev. D. D Holder; Benningsg, Rev. E. R. Williams; Lakeland, Md., Rev. F. P. Turner; Bladensburg, Md., Rev. E. N. Thomas; Lincoln, Md., Rev. M. J. Key; Kensington, Md., Rev.

Plummer; Sandy Springs, Md., Rev. J. S. Scribner; Goss Mission, Rev. F. E. Edwards. Major O. J. W. Scott, was made Connectional Evangelist. Several important changes were made in Baltimore. Rev. Frederick Douglas, whose five years at Bethel had expired, was sent to Allen in the same city. Presiding Elder C. A. Steptoe, was sent to Bethel. Rev. Jordan formerly of Allen, was made Presiding Elder. The Conference accepted the plan proposed by Rev. C. H. Wesley of this city, to raise a fund for ministerial relief. This fund is to be used for cases of sickness, death, and disasters. The ministers will pay a small amount into this fund the same as an insurance policy. This is the first conference to adopt such a measure for the relief of its ministers. The next conference will meet next year at Frederick, Md. The time will be set by the Bishops. The Washington Tribune COUNSEL FOR FAMILY OF RAYMOND MILBERRY REQUESTS THAT NO FUNDS BE COLLECTED AND NO PUBLIC DEMONSTRATION BE HELD AT THIS TIME Attorney Benjamin L. Gaskins, one of the counsels for the family of the late Raymond Milberry, who met his death at the hands of policeman Watson Salkeld, last Sunday afternoon, has requested this paper to announce that no person or organization is authorized to collect any funds for prosecution of any criminal or civil case that may follow, and to request that no mass meeting or other public demonstration be held at this time. "The proper authority to investigate this case and to take such action as the law and the facts warrant," said Attorney Gaskins, "is the District Attorney." "We have absolute confidence in that official and every reason to believe that his office will perform its full duty in that behalf. And if the case is laid before the grand jury as we firmly believe that it will be, we must not assume at this time, that that body will not also do its duty." "The authorities are fully aware that great public indignation has been aroused and that the colored citizens of Washington will follow the progress of this case jealously." "Certainly there is no reason why anybody should take it upon himself to collect any money to aid the prosecution, which is in the hands of the constituted authorities."

Evidence Showed No Necessity for Act (By Wow) The verdict of exoneration given policeman Salkeld Monday by a coroner's jury, in the killing of Raymond Milberry of 1623 10th Street, Northwest, has possibly provoked more comment than any other happening during the past five years. Much of the comment has been in criticizing the coroner's jury. This jury si composed of six men RAYMOND MILBERRY and is drawn like other juries in the District. However, not in the past five years, or possibly longer, has a Negro been placed on this jury. It is the only jury in the District where a Negro is not called for service. The jurymen are called by the Morgue Master and are sworn in by the coroner. They serve for no stated time. This results in many of the men becoming professional jurymen, which is not permitted in any other branch of the District government. This is practically the reason why no Negroes are ever selected. The Tribune has received hundreds of phone calls during the week, asking why this apparent discrimination is permitted. This criticism has been provoked by the long string of exonerations returned by this jury of white men and the equally long string of holding of Negroes. Another criticism The Tribune has received during the week is that practically every autopsy performed by the deputy coroner, on Negroes, regardless for what purpose it is being performed, the deputy usually states that the smell of alcoholic liquors is always in the victim's stomach. In the Milberry case, he stated a faint smell of gin or some other alcoholic drink was detectable in the victim's stomach. Just what bearing this bit of information had on the case could not be detected, not even by the lawyers present. --- WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, MAY 2, 1925 Exoneration Causes Severe Criticism of Jury. No Negroes Serve Notwithstanding a majority of the eyewitnesses testified that Policeman Watson Salkeld, of the Second Precinct, shot and killed Raymond Milberry, 27 years old, of 1623 Tenth Street, Northwest, last Sunday, without justification, a coroner's jury on Monday exonerated the officer. Its verdict was that the policeman had killed the deceased in the line of duty. Milberry was shot by Policeman Salkeld Sunday afternoon at the entrance of an alley on Tenth Street, Northwest, between Q and R Streets, directly opposite No. 1638 Tenth Street. At the time of the shooting the officer was in civilian clothes riding in an automobile. The testimony at the inquest showed that the policeman turned his car into the alley, stopped and called Milberry, whom he attempted to place under arrest. Milberry wanted to know why he was under arrest. The officer grabbed him by his clothes and pulled him upon the running board of the car. Milberry pulled back. The policeman attempted to hold him with his left hand. During the scuffle the officer drew his gun with his right hand and shot Milberry three times. Milberry walked around to the front of the car and fell in front of the automobile dead. Policeman William H. Ellery came up and helped pick up the man. They put him in the car and carried him to the Emergency Hospital where he was pronounced dead upon arrival. Corroborated This version of the fatal shooting was given by several witnesses, the first of whom was Jefferson Burden, of 1621 Tenth Street, Northwest, who was standing on Tenth Street, about eight or ten feet away from the scene. Burden told the coroner's jury that just as Milberry started past, the officer grabbed him. He said the policeman ordered him to get into the car. The boy said, "I haven't done anything," Mr. Burden testified, and the boy repeated he hadn't done anything. The officer started pulling, and the boy pulled back. At the same time he was getting his gun, said Mr. Burden. When he got out his gun, the officer commenced shooting. In answer to a question, Mr. Burden stated that he had heard the officer tell the boy, "Get in here, you damn black ____" This story was corroborated in substance by Alfred B. Embrey, of 1627 Tenth Street, Northwest, who said he was only about ten steps away at the time of shooting; Mrs. Hattie Gray, 1633 Tenth Street, Northwest; John L. Thomas, 1635 Tenth Street, Northwest, who testified that Milberry had been talking to a man near his house just before the fatal shooting occurred; Mrs. Milred Crutchfield, 1637 (Continued on page 6) 5 New York—Albert Lloyd, Negro Elevator Runner, was proclaimed a Hero when he bravely stuck to his post and carried many of the victims of an Ammonia Leak in the St. Regis Building in West 42nd Street.

They particularly called to his attention segregation in the Government, departments, the matter of more appointments of colored men to Federal offices of responsibility, and the problem of securing the ballot for colored persons in the South. BAR ASSOCIATION PROTEST USE OF WORD "DARKEY" BAR ASSOCIATION PROTEST USE OF WORD "DARKEY" At its regular monthly meeting held last Thursday night at the Twelfth Street Branch Y. M. C. A., the Washington Bar Association directed its executive committee to draft a resolution to be sent to Judge John P. McMahon and the Secretary of War, protesting against the use of the word "darky" by a United States Army officer in the police court over which Judge McMahon presided. Although the use of the word was protested, Judge McMahon is charged with having permitted the army officer to use it repeatedly during the course of a trial. The members of the executive committee, who are drafting this resolution, are Charles H. Houston, Thomas Walker, John H. Wilson, U. S. Garnes and Isaiah Lisemby. The association also authorized a special committee, composed of Thomas Walker, Charles H. Houston and John H. Wilson, to continue negotiations with the District Bar Association for the use of books in the law library in the court house. The Washington Bar Association would have the right extended to its members by requiring each member to pay the District Bar Association a fee. The books in the library are the property of the District Bar Association. The sum of $25 was donated to the Twelfth Street Branch Y.M.C.A., for the purpose of paying membership fees for poor boys.

DOUGLAS DENIES WIFE'S CHARGES James W. Douglas, a druggist who operates a drug store at Fourth and Elm Streets, Northwest, in his answer to his wife's petition for a limited divorce, denied her charges of cruelty and asserted that the disputes which he and his wife, Mrs. Dorothy E. Douglas, had in the past were caused by her extravagant and reckless spending of money at times when he was only earning a small income. In Debt. Dr. Douglas denied that he is endeavoring to avoid the obligation of supporting his wife and three children, but states the fact to be that he is in debt in the sum of $1,500 approximately, that his business is not on a paying basis, that there is a chattel mortgage against it and the holder of the mortgage has threatened to sell the business because he is unable to make his payments in accordance with the agreement with the mortgage holder. There are several judgments against him in the municipal court, he says, and he is unable to meet them or pay his financial obligations. He has no income and owns no property, he states, and at this time is endeavoring to dispose of his business in order that he will not be placed further in debt by trying to maintain it at a loss. No Wrongful Assault Dr. Douglas denies that four or five months after their marriage he struck his wife in the face with his hand. He also denies that he wrongfully assaulted her while they were living at 313 U. Street, Northwest, or that in 1917, he assaulted her or was abusive towards her in any manner. He admits, however, that she left him during the year 1917, but says that the cause was not cruelty. He denies that in August, 1924, while under the influence of liquor, he beat and choked her and forced her to leave home, as she charged in her bill of complaint. He says that it was never necessary for her to seek the aid of the district attorney to gain admission to their home. He admits that he and his wife had a dispute as to their moving into Maryland and says that the district attorney informed her that it was necessary for her to live with her husband at any suitable home he would furnish, and they then moved in July; 1924, to the residence of his mother in Sixty-first street near the District line, which is in the State of Maryland, and they have lived there continually up to the time of their separation in April of this year. Took Money out of Cash Register In denying that he refused her money for her support, he stated that Mrs. Douglas would come to his place of business and withdraw from the cash register whatever amount of money she would need for the household expenses and her own personal expenses. He denied that his mother ordered his wife from her home and that he told her that he did not want her and the only way he could get rid of her was to live in the woods of Maryland. He claims that he never threatened to do anything to drive her from him. He claims that his wife is not a resident of the District of Columbia, but that he and she are residents of the State of Maryland. Dr. Douglas asks the court to dismiss the suit of his wife without cost to him. He also asks permission to see his children, whom he says are now in the State of Delaware. He asks that his wife be required to produce them in court. They are James W., Jr., 7 years; Daniel E., 5 years, and Audrey, 2 years. He asks the court to dissolve the writ, on which he was arrested and released on April 9 on bond of $500 to stay within the District of Columbia. Dr. Douglas is defended by Attorneys T. Morris Wampler and R. E. Lynch. Mrs. Douglas is represented by Attorneys Lambert, Yeatman and Canfield.

The State of Virginia has at present, only one Normal School for the training of Colored teachers and there is a pronounced need for more facilities for such training, due to the growth of population and the demand for more and better education of its citizenry of which the colored people constitute a large percentage. Not only for this reason does the management at Manassas seek to convert this school into a State Normal but because by this means, they hope to secure a more permanent, abundant and useful existence of a most worthy institution which has through struggles, served a generation upon the charities of the general public without regard to race or creed.

EMICAL COMPANY Atlanta, Georgia The Tribune Sport Review Dunbar Wins at Penn CarnivalHoward Ready for Track Meet AGE FOUR The Dunbar W Shares National Honors with Hubbard The Dunbar high school relay team, composed of Nathaniel George, Joseph Miller, Roland Richardson and Raymond Burton and coached by Charles Pinderhughes, former Howard athlete, won national fame at the Penn Relays last Saturday when they excelled in the class interscholastic mile-relay by soundly defeating a dozen of the fastest white high school teams in the country in the record time of 3 min. 32 1-10 seconds, clipping one tenth of a second off of the class record. 30 Yards Ahead The most heroic feat was accomplished by George who was pinched off at the first turn, had to pull-up and go around the runners, but then save the baton to Burton six yards in the van of his field. From then on Burton, Miller and Richardson, in that order, kept daylight between them and their opponents. The anchor man kneezed across the finish line 30 yards ahead of the field. The achievement of the Dunbar team is the first in the history of local high schools, white or colored. Flushing High School of New York finished in the second match with Springfield Tech third. The local runners competed in two other races. In the medley relay in which the men run 440, 660, 220 and 880 yards, the team finished fifth after one runner had fallen. In a jam at the first turn, a big number went down and Richardson was caught in the group. He got up and although injured, gallantly went after the runners ahead of him. With clear sailing the team might have landed this event also. In the 440-yard relay, each man running 110 yards, Dunbar drew down the third prize. Liggons was substituted for Miller in this event. Dunbar made the 440-yards in 44 3-5 sec. Hubbard Wins Sprint Dehart Hubbard, University of Michigan athlete, running in the International 100-yard special, defeated Porritt, an Australian by two yards in the fast time of 9 4-5 seconds. Porritt hails from a continent that bears all races of color. A University of Virginia athlete also finished behind Hubbard. It was a popular victory for Hubbard who has already proven that he has no peer at broad-jumping and few in the hop, step and jump, low hurdles and the dashes. He did not compete in but one event at the relays. Bordentown Wins The Bordentown relay team won first honors in their race with a grand exhibition. The Lincoln University relay team, victors for two consecutive years, were forced into second place, chiefly because of the poor running of the lead-off man. Bill Taylor, ran a beautiful race to give Lincoln a lead, but this lead could not be maintained. Bill Taylor of Lincoln competed in the 100-yard dash, but did not reach the finals. Cecil Cooke of Syracuse failed to make any showing. There were scores of colored high and grammar school runners. Howard Out of Money The Howard relay team failed to finish in the money. Bates, Rutgers and Springfield finished ahead of Howard. Captain Bright put up the best exhibition for the locals. Hill, Shelton and Jason were the other runners. NOTICE!!

LAFAYETTES OF ALEXANDRIA DOWN FORT HUMMOCK The Lafaeytte A. C. Baseball Club of Alexandria, Va. defeated the strong Fort Humphrey aggregation on last Sunday by the large score of 14 to 4. "Tex" McGee pitched for the Lafayettes with Wright receiving. His curves, twists and drops could not be touched to advantage by the soldiers. He had them eating out of his hand for the whole nine innings. This youngster is predicted to become a real ace provided he is properly tutored. Fairbanks, Taylor and Robinson played stellar ball for the victors. The Alexandria team has gotten off to a good start and show mid-season form. For games write to Chandler Robinson, business manager, 422 South Washington Street, Alexandria, Va. Take notice, Stonewalls, Georgetown and Mt. Pleasant A. C.

For the past few years the Tigers have been furnishing players to the Pennsylvania town. Jim Budd who is now leading the latter team at bat with an average of over 400, Collins, Everett Davis, and Joie Wheeler have been the backbone of the Donora team for a number of years. The Tigers will have much trouble in filling "Lefty" Smith's place. ST. PAUL DOWNS A. & T. IN UPHILL BATTLE Russell Field, Lawrenceville, Va., April 25—St. Paul conquered A. & T.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, MAY 2, 1925 Opening High School Game to Tech Armstrong captured the opening game of the baseball season from Dunbar on the Monument Lot by the count, 15 to 3. Robinson was on the mound for Dunbar and for three innings held his opponents scoreless. Poor support aided greatly in Tech's win, Dunbar players making 12 errors. Jones and Hammond twirled for the winner. Mavorite of Tech and Robinson of Dunbar connected for homers. The teams are coached by Duvall Evans and C. W. Adams of Dunbar and Armstrong respectively. The second game of the series will be played on the Monument Lot or May 4th.

HARGROVE TWIRLS ANOTHER SHUT OUT Hampton, Va.—Edward Hargrove, star right-hander of the Hampton In- stitute nine, pitched his second straight shut-out of the season when teammates were collecting three runs. Hargrove allowed but three hits, fanned six and was afforded errorless support. M. Allen pitched a creditable game for the losers, allowing but seven hits and fanning six. Only one run was earned.

VA. SEMINARY CO-EDS HELP TO MAKE TRACK MEET SUCCESSFUL Lynchburg, Va.—On the hottest day of this year, sixty-four athletes gathered on Seminary's new track field, all eager to cop first honors for their respective classes or school, all eager to establish new records that will go down in the archives and there remain until some future contender will exhibit more skill and endurance—until some maruder establishes a better mark. This meet, the first of its kind, here, was a success, everybody cooperating with the officials, everybody eager to contest or see the contestants. The girls' team from Dunbar, though shut out of the early events-copped two first places when the star lady performer of the afternoon made a remarkable broad-jump of 14 feet, $8\frac{1}{2}$ inches. Miss Moore also tied Smith and Rodgers for second place in the girls' high jump, and her sensational finish in girl's relay was the most thrilling event of the day. The girls relay was slightly marred when Miss Elaine White took a dangerous spill at the first curve, but soon proved the thrill of the day when the judges declared Moore of Dunbar, the winner by an inch. Watson and Rodgers tied for high point scorers, each winning three firsts and one second place. This meet will long be remembered and credit is due Roy Perry and Mrs. Beatrice Hurt, who worked diligently with the boys and girls, getting the interest of each sex. The Winning Dunbar Relay Team Left to right—Richardson, Burton, Coach Pinderhughes, Captain George Miller. Union League Teams Open Season Sunday Giants Meet Va. All-Stars in Alexandria The Union League season will get underway tomorrow (Sunday) on two diamonds with five teams in action. The LeDroit Tigers and Teddy Bears will pry the lid off on the league's diamond at South Capitol and P Sts. Southwest, at 1 o'clock. Following this game the Oriental Tigers will take on the winner. The latter game is necessary, due to inability of Manager Hagen to have his St. Cyprian club ready. The Saints will need about two more weeks to get in trim. While the above teams are in action, the Virginia All-Stars and Washington Giants will toil in Alexandria, Va. The officials of the Union League are looking forward to a big year Hayes Jones, often referred to as the "father of sandlot and semi-pro baseball" here has been elected to act as president of the circuit. Most of the games will be played on the South-west diamond and in Alexandria. The Union Park at 15th and H Streets, N.E., will also be used. Most of the clubs have been strengthened and a hot race is expected. The Teddy Bears are favors to repeat. Departmental League Ready for Opening The champion Veterans Bureau nine and the strong Treasury aggregation will open the Departmental season on the Monument Lot on Monday, May 4th at 5 p.m. The legae season will be divided into two parts of 42 games each.

Pleasant A. C., 5 to 2. Madison was on the hill for the Elks and received excellent support. Easter Sunday the Army Service Detachment took the opening game of the season from the Elks, 7 to 5, in a free hitting contest. For games with the Arlington Elks write Manager Wm. Washington, Box 198, R.F.D. No. 2, Ballston, Va. With all the frills of an opening day and before the largest crowd that ever swarmed Hilldale Park, Ed. Bolden's Darby champs started the league season in a manner that delighted the home contingent, when they handed the Harrisburg Giants a 6 to 2 lacing. Nimp Winters, southpaw pitching ace of the Hilldale squad held the Giants well in check while his team mates pounded out a decisive victory. Kenneth "Ping" Gardner, started for the Giants, but the Hilldale batters shelled Gardner off the peak in less than two innings. Dalty Cooper was rushed to the hill after two Hilldale batters had been retired in the second inning and handed the home team blanks for the remainder of the fray. Two home run drives, one by George Carr in the first inning and another by Clint Thomas in the second frame really spelled finish for Gardner's efforts on the mound. Both drives cleared the fence in center and left center that has been moved back to enlarge the field. The Harrisburg Giants presented a new combination in the infield with Ben Taylor at first and Walter Cannady at shortstop. The Elk's Band furnished music for the occasion and Mrs. Lena Trent Gordon, prominent Philadelphia leader in the Welfare Department of City Hall, tossed out the first ball.

These citizens can see neither the justification of the murder nor the grounds for the exoneration. Citizens of Washington need not také into consideration Sal- keld’s February murder to convince them that there is a loose screw somewhere. They have but to take the case at hand. First of all, Milberry was, at the worst, guilty of a_misde- meanor, punishable by a small fine in the police court. He was unarmed when Salkeld attempted to arrest him, and he was still without a weapon when examined by those who had no part in the heinous crime. Though Milberry fought like a demon, though he made violent threats, Salkeld, not clothed in the Metropolitan Police uniform, was armed sufficiently to subdue him and to make an arrest by ‘means more humane than puncturing his body and lungs with lead. It was not a case of self-defence nor of capturing one who had committed a felony. It was a case of a policeman being so emotionally defective as to discard all thought and reason in a crisis. Two questions logically arise: Why did Salkeld shoot Milberry? and, why was Salkeld so hastily exonerated? Not until these questions are convincingly answered will law-abiding citizens feel safe in going about their duties. They suspect the efficiency of the Department of Police in its having, as a member of its force, one who has so little regard for human life as to “take it” upon the least provocation. Their vision of a police department working toward the end of prevent- ing crime receives a dismal blur. They see the urgent need of a _psychopathic laboratory manned by proficient psychologists and biometrists to avoid coming in contact with, or better still, to prevent the existence of, men representing the law who suffer from dementia praccov—a brain disease usually inherited and incura- ble, which prevents the victim from having normal feelings of kindness, pity, love and honesty. And they suspect that Mil- berry’s death was a dementia praccox murder. One may possess keen intelligence, yet suffer dementia praecow. This was brought out at the Leopold-Loeb murder trial. One may be basely ignorant and be a dementia praecox victim. Victims of this disease set fire to buildings and then risk their lives in rescuing the occupants; they club, cut and shoot, merely for their delight in seeing the flow of blood, and then they mingle with _ the curious to find what it is all about. High or low it matters not. But it is of great importance that our Department of Police find ways and means of recognizing mental and emotionally defective persons and keeping them out of authority. Society can not be safe with such persons as repre- sentatives of the law; nor can the Metropolitan Police make any noticeable decrease in crime so long as such defectives continue - have the freedom of duly authorized representatives of the law. The citizens of Washington arise en masse to protest on behalf of outraged logic and common sense. * They can see neither logic nor common sense in the exoneration of Salkeld. They protest against the free and loose manner in which he was ac- quitted. The sweeping assertion that he killed “in the line of duty” is silly, and seriously misleads the public. It turns jus- tice into low farce. They, therefore, demand that Salkeld be indicted by the grand jury so that an opportunity may be had for good judgement and justice to have sway, and for society to be rid of the menace of a dementia praecox victim in so danger- ous a position as a heavily armed officer moving about the streets. PAGE SIX JUDGE?STOPS FURTHER PAYMENT OF ALIMONY Mrs. Ada Hawkins, of 2325 Cham- plain Street, Northwest, through At- torney George E. C. Hayes, has filed suit for an absolute divorce from her husband, John H. Hawkins, who was named as the co-respondent in a suit recently filed by Richard H. Goodrich, of 107 Bates Street, Northwest, against his wife, Beatrice Goodrich, harges Repeated. Mrs, Hawkins names Beatrice Good- rich as the co-respondent in her suit and repeats the sensational charges made by Mr. Goodrich that his wife had given birth to a child whose father is Mr, Hawkins. In her bill of complaint, Mrs. Haw- kins says that she and her husband lived happily together after their mar- riage at 329-A Elm Street, Northwest, but after a short. period ‘his attitude changed and he showed signs of hav- ing tired of her and would not con- tribute sufficiently toward her support and maintenance. She says that his regular weekly contribution to cover her clothing and food was only $3, He gave his time and attention to others, Mrs, Hawkins says, and would come into the house and ge- his meals and go immediately into the streets and remain until 1 or 2 o'clock in the morning. Co-respondent Displaced Wife. It came to her attention, says Mrs. Hawkins, that her husband ‘was paying unusual ‘and improper attention to Beatrice Goodrich. i In conducting a coniectidnary con- cession in the Pythian Building, *welith and U Streets, Northwest, he discontinued her services, she claims, ‘and put in her place the Goodrich | Mrs. Hawkins claims that she was forced to leave her husband because of his neglect on October 22, 1922, pee which time she has been entirely Fthout support from, him, " Shortls hher forced separation rom him, Mrs. Hawkins alleges that a child was born to Beatrice Good- ch, whic ec bas since, been rmed clieves is the result of the fand adulcrous lationship be: n Hawkins and Mrs. Goodrich, mpashe says, ag ee eae ae Lives With Co-respondent.

The Di- rector of this program is T. Arnold Hill who for the past eight years has been the Executive Secretary of the Chicago Urban League and Western Field Secretary of the National or- ganization. Mr. Hill, whose head- quarters are now in New York City, has had a most successful administra- tion in Chicago and the West. In Chicago, he developed the League from its ineipiency to the point where it had sixteen workers and a budget of $30,000 per year. He laid the foundation for League organizations in a number of western cities and be- came the outstanding authority on the problems of race relations and the Negro in industry in social work cir- cles’ regardless of color. | During the Chicago race riots, he was instrumental in bringing togeth- jer the leading white and colored citi- zens of Chicago resulting in the es- ‘tablishment of the Chicago Commis- sion on Race Relations which pub- lished a report which is considered the most authoritative report of race con- ditions yet presented, Before leaving Chicago, Mr. Hill was a member of the Executive Board and the Council of Social Agencies, and the Social Workers Club. He also was a mem- ber of the Committee representing all of the social agencies of Chicago which published an authoritative re- port of the financing of social agen- cies. Mr. Hill is thirty-six years of age, a graduate of Virginia Union Univer- science at New York University. Whe program of the Industrial De- partment is as follows: 1, To standardize and co-ordinate the local employment agencies of the League so that exchange of informa- tion and more regular correspondence between them can assure applicants for work more efficient and helpful service and employers of labor a more efficient group of employees: 2. To work directly with large in- dustrial plants both in cities where the League is established and the com- munities renfoved from such centers to procure larger opportunity for work and for advancement on the job for Negro workers and to stimulate Negro workers to a fresh determina- tion to “make good” on the job so that their future in industry may be assured, 2 8, To help through available chan- nels. of information to ascertain points at which there is an oversupply of Ne- gf labor, and to use existing agen- cies of publicity and placement to di- rect Negro labor, including migrants, to those points where they are most needed and where their families. will most easily become adjusted. , ‘The Department’ of Research and! Investigations of the League, Charlee §. Johnson, Director, is co-operating with the Industrial Department by making an investigation of-the ex- periences of Negroes with Trade Un- ions throughout the United States the results of which study will immed- iately be placed at the disposal of the Industrial Department. _ KNOXVILLE WINS DEBATE.

Cut these articles out and keep them. Persons interested in Boy Scout work can receive information by making an appointment with Hilliard B. Halbrook, 927 15th Street, Northwest; Room 1109; or telephone, Main 2811.

To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight. The Scout Sign When taking this oath the scout will stand holding up his right hand, palm to the front, thumb resting on the nail of the little finger and the other three fingers upright and together. This sign is also used as a recognition sign between scouts. The Scout Sign The Rules: All lines for this limerick must reach us not later than May 11, 1925.

THE SCOUT LAW There have always been certain written and unwritten laws regulating the conduct and directing the activities of men. We have such unwritten laws coming down from past ages. In Japan, the Japanese have their Bushido, or laws of the old Samurai warriors. During the Middle Ages, the chivalry and rules of the Knights of King Arthur, the Knights Templar, and the Crusaders were in force. In aboriginal America, The red Indians had their laws of honor; likewise the Zulus, Hindus, and the later European nations have their ancient codes. The following laws which relate to the Boy Scouts of America are the latest and most up to date. These laws a boy promises to obey when he makes his scout oath. While repeating the Law he stands at salute. 1. A Scout is Trustworthy. A scout's honor is to be trusted. If he were to violate his honor by telling a lie, or by cheating, or by not doing exactly a given task, when trusted on his honor, he may be directed to hand over his scout badge. 2. A Scout is Loyal. He is loyal to all to whom loyalty is due; his scout leader, his home, and parents and country. 3. A Scout is Helpful. He must be prepared at any time to save life, help injured persons, and share the home duties. He must do at least one good turn to somebody every day. 4. A Scout is Friendly. He is a friend to all and a brother to every other scout. 5. A Scout is Courteous. He is polite to all, especially to women, children, old people, and the weak and helpless. He must not take pay for being helpful or courteous. 6. A Scout is Kind. He is a friend to animals. He will not kill nor hurt any living creature needlessly, but will strive to save and protect all harmless life. 7. A Scout is Obedient. He obeys his parents, scout master, patrol leader, and all other duly constituted authorities. 8. A Scout is Cheerful. He smiles whenever he can. His obedience to orders is prompt and cheery. He never shirks nor grumbles at hardships. 9. A Scout is Thrifty. He does not wantonly destroy property. He works faithfully, wastes nothing, and makes the best use of his opportunities. He saves his money so that he may pay his own way; he is generous to those in need, and helpful to worthy objects. He may work for pay, but must not receive tips for courtesies or good turns. 10. A Scout is Brave. He has the courage to face danger in spite of fear, and to stand up for THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, MAY 2, 1925 FREE TICKETS TO A Chance to Get Free Admission Tickets by Sending the Page a Postal Card Circus days are here.

(By Lillian Lewis Feurtado) (Nat'l Equal Rights League Service) (Continued from last week) For twenty years Crispus Attucks wandered where he pleased. He was a lover of the sea, and no doubt he sailed about with masters of vessels, until he happened to reach Boston, for, on the day of the Boston Massacre, his companions were sailors. Boston was the town selected by the English in which to make themselves obnoxious to the colonists. The New England spirit of liberty was too fast asserting itself. Petitions to the Governor, and to the legislature; conventions; speeches; mass meetings; committees to present petitions; all of the methods and the same lot of persistent efforts that we, the Colored people of America, are carrying on at the present time, were carried on by the oppressed colonists at that period, in their fight for justice and civil rights. General Gage, commander-in-chief of the British forces in New England, was a man who did not conceal his dislike for Colored people. He encouraged his soldiers in the disrespectful attitude that they assumed toward the Bostonians, when they marched into the city on a Sunday and encamped on Boston Common, when they took possession of the State House, of Faneuil Hall, set up barracks at Brattle and Water Streets, planted their cannon, and challenged the residents wherever they pleased. On the Friday before the Massacre the soldiers had beaten several citizens, hence indignation was growing and an outbreak seemed imminent. The citizens' speeches, their protestations, petitions, everything, had been ignored, just as most of ours are ignored in a similar fight for fair play and cessation of injustice, hence the last resort became the first bold stroke. On Monday, March 5, 1770, in the evening, about 9 o'clock, when the streets were covered with snow, and the sky was clear, and the pale cold moon shone over all, the soldiers were attacking and insulting passers-by, striking them with sticks or sheathed cutlasses and in every conceivable way annoying and threatening them. Several clashes took place, and in Brattle Street, at the corner of an alley, there was a big fracas. It drew a big crowd, excitement ran high, bells were rung, people ran from all quarters, and armed with billets of wood, with snow balls and cakes of ice, they attacked the soldiers and dared them to fire, although the soldiers aimed their guns.

Ross, graduate of School of Medicine, 1922, now located at 80 W 128th Street, New York, recently wrote a letter to the Howard Medical News giving some interesting facts about the banquet tendered Dean Balloch by the Howard Reading Club of New York on April 17th. He stated that Dr. O'Hanlan, Superintendent of Bellevue Hospital, New York City, lauded the efficiency of colored internes at Bellevue and stated that Harlem Hospital would eventually have colored doctors. Dr. O'Hanlan stated that he could not see why colored people themselves objected to the presence of colored doctors in the Harlem Hospital and that so far most of the objection had come from colored residents of Harlem.

You Too Can Have Beauty 'I was not always as attractive as I am now. My hair, which should be woman's greatest charm, used to be coarse and unruly due to dandruff, and my face was sallow and often bore ugly pimples. "I had heard Exelento Quinine Pomade praised on all sides and I got a package and began using it as directed. The results were as astonishing. My dandruff all left me and my hair began to get so soft and silky that it was a delight to comb it." "Then I began to use Exelento Skin Soap on my face and the results were equally amazing. All blemishes disappeared and my face became soft, smooth and beautiful." Exelento Quinine Pomade and Exelento Skin Soap may be obtained for only 25¢ each at all drug stores or will be sent, postpaid, upon receipt of price.
