'FRAME UP.' SAYS WALTER COHEN LILY WHITES ACCUSED OF PLOT TO DISCREDIT COHEN FOR OWN POLITICAL GAIN J. Finley Wilson Re-elected Head of the Elks Annacostia Dentist is Sued for Divorce BIG WILD WEST ACT Begining Mon., Labor Day Ending Sunday, Sept. 13 SUBURBAN GARDENS First in Local Circulation. Vol. 5, No. 15 'FRAME LILY WHITES A PLOT TO DISC FOR OWN PO The indictment of Walter L. Cohen, comptroller of customs at New Orleans, La., on a charge of a conspiracy to violate the Volstead act, is regarded here by Government officials as a frame-up. A special investigator of the Treasury Department is on his way to New Orleans to make a rigid examination of the facts and circumstances surrounding the indictment. This investigation was ordered by General Lincoln C. Andrews, assistant secretary of the Treasury, in charge of the customs service. Pending this investigation Mr. Cohen will not be suspended from office, as the interests of the United States are in no way in jeopardy, General Andrews said. Mr. Cohen does not plan to come to Washington at this time, as it was at first reported. He wired the following statement: "My indictment was more of a surprise to me than to many of my friends. I knew nothing of it until called up on the telephone at my summer home at Bay, St. Louis. "The whole matter is only another effort on the part of the lily-white crowd to discredit me and have me removed from office. "I have requested a speedy trial and am asking the public to withhold judgment until after my trial, which I am sure will result in my acquittal as I am entirely innocent. I have also requested the Treasury Department to send one of its most trusted and impartial agents here to make a thorough investigation." Thirty-four persons were involved in the indictments charging conspiracy to violate the national prohibition act. Mr. Cohen is the only one among those indicted against whom no allegation is made of having received any money. He is involved by allegations that he was consulted by heads of the rum-running conspiracy on the movements of customs craft; that he advised when (Continued on page 3). PALACE CASINO MOST BEAUTIFUL SALON IN CITY On Tuesday evening, September 1, Murray Brothers Palace Casino, undoubtedly the most beautifully appointed dance hall in Washington, D.C., without regard to any distinctions of any sort, was opened with an introductory dance. The crowd that was present was treated to the degree of amazement with newly installed decorations and electric novelties, the radiance and reflections of which, when observed, both direct and from the heavy French plate mirrors on the side walls, was, to say the least, impressive. Few rendezvous of pleasure in the whole country equal what Murray Brothers have provided in the way of equipment. The fact that the opening week was totally booked by enterprising clubs, anxious to be among the first to present to their respective memberships the unique and pleasant dancing casino, tells in very emphatic terms the immediate favor with which the enterprise has been received. "Bill" Reeves Peacock Orchestra, the White Brothers Orchestra, the Black and White Syncopators, and Bransons Society orchestra were the musical organizations that shared the pleasure of the opening week. The two distinctively new and novel features—a circular dancing floor, and a sun-rise background for the orchestra—will alone give the Palace Casino the first place among dance salons, not only in this city, but in the entire country. This circular floor of hard maple, finished to a mirror-like smooth surface, is surrounded with box seats for both non-dancers and dancers who may desire to listen to the music and look out upon those who are dancing. A gorgeous water fountain with variated colored lights thrown upon the water has been placed in the center of the floor; large life-size beautiful mirrors have been placed on either side of the circle. The general color scheme of pea green, cream and gold has been carried out throughout, harmoniously blending into a silk draped sun-burst ceiling of gold and lemon. BIG WILI The Washington Tribune PUBLISHED WEEKLY WOODMEN SELECT LOCAL MAN FOR NATIONAL POST A. T. Washington, who for some years past has been the District Supervisor of the American Woodmen, was advanced during the national convention of the body held recently in Denver, to the post of Supreme Escort, a station ranking above that of Supreme Sentry which he held prior to the session. Mr. Washington has been in the or- der for more than a dozen years. Five years ago he assumed charge of District of Columbia and Maryland when his books showed thirty members. Today the organization boasts of more than a thousand who respond to the fraternal call that issues from his office in the Southern Aid Building. On his return from Denver, when interviewed by the Tribune, Mr. Washington spoke in glowing terms of the work accomplished during the past year by the Woodmen. He is especially proud of the conservative financial policy that the supreme officers have been following; and of the progressive interest they have been exhibiting in the general affairs of our people aside from the purely fraternal and insurance phases. National Medical Association Selects Philadelphia National Medical Association Selects Philadelphia Philadelphia Host Next Year Philadelphia Host Next Year Chicago, Ill., (By the Associated Negro Press)—The thirtieth annual meeting of the National Medical Association closed here Friday evening after a week of scientific discussion, clinics and social events, participated in by hundreds of physicians and surgeons, dentists and pharmacists. The convention brought to the city of Chicago more than 200 visiting professional men and laymen, among whom were some of the most prominent men and women in business, professional and social circles of the Race. In spite of the fact that the registration did not open until Monday morning, long before the designated time visitors were pouring into the city from all sections of the country and at the opening day the hotels of the South Side were taxed to their capacity, the overflow being handled by private homes. Philadelphia was designated as the host of the thirty-first annual meeting which will be held in August, 1926. According to the opinion of those attending the Chicago session, the "City of Brotherly Love" will have to step some to keep pace with that set by the "Windy City." Among the officers elected: Dr. W. Gr. Alexander, Orange, N.J., president; Dr. Carl G. Roberts, Chicago, Ill., president-elect; Dr. G. W. Bowles, chairman executive board; Dr. J. A. Kenney, Newark, N.J., editor of the Journal, and Dr. Clyde Donnell, general secretary, Durham, N.C. The retiring president was Dr. M. O. Dumas of Washington. WASHINGTON, D.C. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1925 SECRETARY OF STATE KELLOG ENTERTAINS LIBERIAN SECRETARY Edwin Barclay, Liberian Secretary of State who is visiting in this country, came to the city last Monday and conferred at the State Department with the Secretary of State. According to the State Department, he simply called to pay his respects to Secretary Kellog as is customary with all visiting secretaries of foreign governments. It is probable, however, that he discussed Liberian affairs. He was accompanied by Dr. Ernest Lyons, of Baltimore, the Liberian consul general. After the conference at the State Department, Mr. Barclay was the unclecon guest of Secretary Kellog at the Metropolitan Club. Later he visited Arlington national cemetery and Mt. Vernon accompanied by State Department officials. CLEVELAND TO BE NEXT MEETING PLACE OF ELKS CLEVELAND TO BE NEXT MEETING PLACE OF ELKS Richmond, Va., Aug. 30—The twenty-sixth annual convention of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World, in many respects the most successful assemblage in the history of the organization, was officially concluded Saturday. While the farewell dance was held Friday night, several thousand Elks remained in the city to await the final results in the election of officers and these departed yesterday in the morning and afternoon by train and by motor car. Several solid trains of Elks left during the day, one consisting entirely of Pullmans having Chicago as its destination. Before leaving, the Elks formally expressed to the people of Richmond their gratitude for the reception accorded the convention here. Individually they declared an enthusiastic appreciation of Richmond and its kindly spirit. The formal resolutions of thanks mentioned particularly the city officials, the police, the traction company and the press. The convention, which attracted to Richmond the largest gathering of the kind ever seen here, was conducted on a highly efficient and orderly plane evoking general congratulations for the Elks. In the final business of the convention, Cleveland, Ohio, was selected as the meeting place of the order in August, 1926, and, after a lengthy and frequently heated fight, the following officers were elected for the year: J. Finley Wilson, of Washington, D. C., grand exalted ruler; Dr. S. H. George, grand esteemed leading knight; Sam Jones, of Washington, D. C., grand loyal knight; Dr. Roland Johnson, of Brooklyn, grand lecturing knight; George E. Bates, of Newark, grand secretary; James T. Carter, of Richmond, grand treasurer; Joe Brown, of New York, grand esquire; Sidney Tomjkins, of Cleveland, grand inner guard; A. B. Grasty, of West Virginia, grand tyler; Edward Pharrow, of Atlanta, grand trustee; H. A. M. Johns, of Lynchburg, Littleton McDuff, of Los Angeles, and E. H. Copeland, of Winston-Salem, grand auditors. The general public to whom is relayed convention news and election results, little is given of the tremendously capable work that is achieved by those who operate the machinery. In the convention just closed there were many capable workers who wore no other badges save that of talent—and needed none. A lot of motive power was furnished by Armond Scott, Harry Pace, and Chandler Owens. The nerviest and most resourceful newspaper men of the race "covered" that convention and they had a lot to do with the manner in which White papers handled the news. Melvin Chisholm, J. R. B. Whitney, Floyd Snelson, and Charlie Magill stood out with distinctiveness for the quality of their different achievements. ASSOCIAT'N FOR STUDY OF NEGRO LIFE AND HISTORY TO MEET HERE NEXT WEEK On the 9th and 10th of September, the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History will celebrate its Tenth Anniversary in this city. All sessions of the Association will be held at John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, 14th and Corcoran Streets, Northwest. A luncheon will feature the second day, which will be held at the Whitelaw Hotel. In working out the program for this celebration of the Tenth Anniversary all aspects of Negro life and history have been taken into account. Dr. Alain Leroy Locke, of Washington, © By A. N. R. and Dr. James H. Dillard, of the John F. Slater FFuFnd, will speak on the civilization of Africa. Mr. R. Maurice Moss, of Baltimore, and Mr. Abram L. Harris, of the Minneapolis Urban League, will discuss present day conditions of the Negro in Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, and Cincinnati. Prof. William T. Laprade of Duke University, President J. P. McConnell of State Teachers College of Virginia, and Dr. Charles H. Wesley of Howard University, will deliver addresses on the Negro before the Civil War. On this occasion the program will carry something new. Realizing the importance of definite knowledge of the achievements and possibilities of the Negro in the economic world, the Association has engaged Mr. W. Gomez, of the Bankers Fire Insurance Company, Mr. C. C. Spaulding, and Prof. W. G. Pearson of Durham, N. C., to discuss the importance of making a survey of the actual achievements of Negroes in business, their opportunities, and the causes of their failures. At the luncheon several persons will deliver informal addresses and then will follow the second evening session devoted exclusively to the Negro MEN WHO FURNISHED POWER TO THE ELKS' CONVENTION HENRY LINCOLN JOHNSON Asute politician, who as the Grand Legal Advisor of the I. B. P. O. E. of W., was an important factor in the recent convention. With Perry Howard, he did some clever things that found reflection in the convention results. Press. Mr. Robert S. Abbott, of the Chicago Defender, will preside; and addresses on the development of the Negro newspaper and the province of the Negro Press will be delivered by Dr. L. H. King, editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate, and Mr. Robert L. Vann, of the Pittsburgh Courier. Mr. E. Washington Rhodes, of the Philadelphia Tribune, and Mr. Carl Murphy of the Baltimore Afro-American, will participate in the general discussion. The last session will be devoted exclusively to the Negro Church. Rev. Wm. L. Imes, of Philadelphia, Bishop C. A.N.P. PROF. W. G. PEARSON L. W. Kyles of the A. M. E. Zion Church, and Bishop R. A. Carter of the C. M. E. Church, will present the progress and achievements of the Negro Church. Miss Estelle E. Pinkney and Dr. Charles Sumner Wormley will furnish music for this and other important sessions. (Continued on page 3) MANASSAS HORSE SHOW TO ATTRACT MONSTER CROWD The program of the Manassas Horse show, copy of which has been reviewed in the Tribune office, indicates that the famous Virginia institution will in all probability excel any of its previous shows. President John White and his associates have prepared a bill of eight assorted track events and an interesting program of demonstrations in horsemanship. There are eighteen classes on the show card with attractive purses for the winners and runners-up in each. In addition to the features usual to such shows the management has provided an excellent musical organization for each of the two halls operating in connection with the show. Dancing will prevail at both the Lewis Hall and Roy's Hall in Manassas. There are indications that the smooth roads that motorists have been finding between Washington and Manassas will prevail upon even more folks to turn towards the Virginia show this year than ever before. Last season the Labor Day date drew thousands from many eastern cities. The show will be for two days, September 7 and 8. The country allureents and picnic possibilities are attractions of the outing that get considerable attention. The Tribune will be represented there for the purpose of informing those who miss it about what they have missed—and to enjoy what we know to be a genuine treat in hospitality and agricultural education.

TO BE FEATURED IN DRAMA WITH A MIXED CAST TO BE FEATURED IN DRAMA WITH A MIXED CAST A rare combination of the professional and business qualities M. Evelyn Mason, an Ohio girl with an excellent education, some dramatic talent, and a few years of experience in the business world, went to New York about a year since. She has personality, pep and a love for work. She put all of these characteristics into immediate use. Observe the results. M. EVELYN MASON Miss Mason is engaged to play the only Colored woman part in Gerald Anderson's new dramatic pro- "Appearances." She is the treasurer of the Professional Service Club, a somewhat similar organization to the Actors' Equity Club, which operates as a casting bureau and actors' rest station in the theatrical district. This organization is maintained under the auspices of the H. H. Handel Association, an incorporated body of theatrical employees of the Rialto district. Privately she owns the Mason Service, an employment agency at the corner of 46th Street and Sixth Avenue, and to fill her unoccupied time, finds pleasure in writing stories and news articles of the show and business world.

OHEN lks or Divorce MOTHER-IN-LAW TROUBLE MAKER SAYS MRS. SMITH Charging interference into their domestic affairs on the part of her mother-in-law, Mrs. Naomi D. Smith,nee Dale, 2607 Nichols Avenue, Southeast, is suing her husband, Dr. Sybraster B. Smith, a dentist, 2505 Nichols Avenue, Southeast, for a limited divorce. She also charges that her husband has failed to provide for her. Both Dr. and Mrs. Smith are prominent in local social circles. Dr. Smith is a graduate of the Howard University school of dentistry. He is a former national singles tennis champion, having won the title in 1919. He is known in local, social and tennis circles as "Syl" Smith. Mrs. Smith is the daughter of Marcus Dale, a mail carrier. The couple were married August 9, 1924, in the District of Columbia, at the bride's home by the Rev. Charles H. Wesley. They separated about May 1, 1925. In her bill of complaint, Mrs. Smith declares that after their marriage they lived at 216 S Street, Northwest, which her husband purchased and was paying for on a monthly basis. Shortly after they began living at this address, she says, her mother-in-law, Mrs. Capitol Smith, came to live with them. Later her mother-in-law purchased No. 2124 Flagler Place, Northwest, says Mrs. Smith, and insisted upon her husband selling their home and moving to the Flagler place address. Her husband needed to the wishes of his mother netwithstanding her protests, declares Mrs. Smith, and just prior to their moving to the Flagger Street address, coerced her into signing a deed conveying her interest in the S Street home. There were frequent quarrels concerning this, she says, and she finally signed the deed in an effort to maintain peace and happiness. Immediately upon moving into the home of his mother, Mrs. Smith says that her husband took a separate room, moved all of his effects into it, and lived in it to the exclusion of her, while she was assigned a room in another part of the house by her mother-in-law and was from that time on completely ignored both as a wife and an occupant of the house. As a result of this treatment and her husband's refusal to contribute anything towards her support, Mrs. Smith declares that they had frequent quarrels, and on July 5, 1928, her husband informed her that he was through with her, that she need not expect him to contribute anything toward her support and directed her to leave his mother's home, which she did. Since she has returned to the home of her parents, she has received from (Continued on page 3) CLOSING WEEK AT SUBURBAN GARDENS Manager Morris Murray of Suburban Gardens has determined that the big park shall close in a blaze of glory; and to that end has engaged the Carlisles, one of the most unique acts in the show world, as the featured attraction. These people, a man and woman, present a combination of skill and daring that is sensational to any the least. They do whip cracking, roping,aping and pistol jugging. The act which was secured thru the H.D. Collins booking office on Broadway, New York is one that has enthrained millions of people during the three years that it was a special feature of Barnum and Eailey's circus. Of course dancing will be a prominent factor in the week's nightly offerings. On Labor Day and Sunday, September 13, the big act will be presented twice. Other nights once at 10 P.M. late enough for the convenience of all, yet early enough not to interfere with those who prefer to go home at a reasonable hour. The expense of the special closing attraction obliges the Park to change a ten cent admission. This however will be rebaited to those who purchase dance floor tickets.

Book Your Dates Now No Increase in Rentals (See Second page for open dates) The Murray Palace Casino ALL OFFICERS RE-ELECTED BY THE SHRINERS Kansas City—The Imperial Council, Nobles of the Ancient Arabic Egyptian order of the Mystic Shrine, closed its 26th annual session at Kansas City, Kans., last Friday after a most remarkable display of harmony that contrasts greatly with the deadlocked condition that prevailed for days with several national organizations that have met during the current month. One unanimous vote cast by Past Imperial Potentate Eugene Phillips of New York served to relect the entire divan of officers, about twenty in number. Not a dissenting voice was heard to the motion that called for this action. Among the officers so re-elected was Charles D. Freeman of Washington who has functioned as Imperial Treasurer for an almost untold number of years. Imperial Potentate Caesar R. Blake, Jr., of Charlotte, N.C., with Harry Knight as Deputy; Levi Williams of Jersey City as Imperial Secretary; and Charles Thorpe of New York as Imperial Marshall, are among the officers whose business efficiency and zeal were so fittingly rewarded. Gov. Ben Paulen of the State of Kansas, Mayor Gordon of Kansas City and Grand Master J. G. Soanes, delivered addresses of welcome. Bishop H. T. Vernon, W. G. Pearson of North Carolina were other prominent speakers heard during the session. Sessions were held on alternate days with social functions intervening. Visits to the U. S. A. Prison at Leavenworth and to the Swift and company packing plant were features of the week. Other more intimate affairs were the dinner tendered the visitors at Streets' Hotel, Kansas City, Mo., by Grand Master Eugene Lacey of Missouri; a banquet at the Swift Co.; the exhibition drills at Memorial Hall and the parade of the Patrols. Local papers referred to the gathering as "The most dignified assemblage of Negroes that the state of Kansas had ever witnessed." The next session will be held in conjunction with the other bodies of the Masonic craft at Boston in 1926.

Mrs. Smith says that she expects to become a mother in December, 1925. She alleges that when she informed her husband of her condition, he became very angry and insisted upon her taking medicines and having an illegal operation performed and that her refusal increased his anger and caused frequent quarrels between them. Mrs. Smith says that Dr. Smith has an excellent clientele and earns more than $5,000 a year. She asks the court to order him to support her and to pay all expenses incurred in connection with the birth of their child. She also asks that he be directed to pay an additional sum for the support and maintenance of the child after its birth. Lily Whites Accused of Plot to Discredit Cohen (Continued from page 1) and how it would be safe to transport liquor from Havana, Cuba, to New Orleans. The indictment charges that Cohen and the thirty-three others conspired to transport 4,250 cases of liquor from the Cuban capital to New Orleans, between June 1 and August 10. The progress of the alleged conspiracy is traced from early June, when the alleged head of a gigantic rum ring is said to have gone to Cuba to purchase a shipment of liquor. It is alleged that $10,000 was paid for protection to a prohibition agent with the understanding that it was to be turned over to the Federal prohibition director for Louisiana. This money, officials claim, was collected by the agent who was operating under instructions to accept payments. It is being held as evidence. Walter L. Cohen was confirmed as comptroller of customs at New Orleans on March 17, 1924, after the Senate had previously voted to reject his nomination. Mr. Cohen was first nominated by President Harding. The Senate adjourned without acting upon this nomination, and he was given a second recess appointment. President Coolidge returned his nomination to the Senate, and he was rejected upon the personal objections of Senators Broussard and Ransdell, Democrats, of Louisiana. At the instance of the late Senator LaFollette, Senator Henrik Shipstead, farmer-labor, of Minnesota, who had voted against confirmation, moved a reconsideration. Cohen was then confirmed by a vote of 39 to 38. SHILOH CONGREGATION GOES HOME The roof and windows of the meeting house of Shiloh Baptist church, corner 9th and P Sts., N.

A splendid dibute was paid the deceased by Past Master C. C. Carter, Secretary of Felix Lodge, in a prepared statement, showing that Brother Wayne entered Felix Lodge on January 12, 1871, was elected Worshipful Master in 1887, serving four years in that station, and elected Grand Junior Warden in 1893. He was also Treasurer of Felix Lodge from 1905 to 1908, and he had served on various committees and in different capacities during his entire half-century in the Order. Eulogies were delivered by M.

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.

That is good news for Goach Watson of Howard, who faces perhaps the most difficult task of any coach. But he will be m:nus the services of the Miller brothers. whose defensive play made the Howard line almost impregnable. One of ‘Them will be out of the game on account of an operation for appendicitis and the other on account of injuries received in am automobile accident. With Bob Miller unable to play, the differences in ‘the Colored Intercollegiate Ath- letie Ascociation may be ironed out, as it was the insistence of Howard ath- letic officials upon playing Miller contrary to the rules, which led to the disorganization of the association. At any rate, indications point to a great season. | Bordentown, N. J., Aug. 31—Tec ‘Thompson, youthful tenmis star the District of Columbia and presen ‘holder of the Baltimore and Washing: ton singles titles, annexed the coveted title of national singles champion a: mid the applause of fully 1,000 tennis fans who came here last Saturday to witness the annual event. His victory was decisive. ~He de- feated Eyre Saitch, idol of New York, in three straight sets, 6-3, 8-6, 6-4 On Friday he outclassed Edgar Brown in a four-set match by the score of 6-4, 5-7, 6-1, 6-0. ‘This was quite an upset, but it met the loud applause of the entire fandom. Having eliminated Brown, the singles championship was almost concede him, and he did not disappoint his followers. Eyre Saitch reached the finals after a hard fight with Talley Holmes, form er national singles champ. There were two deuce sets played in this match both going to the New Yorker. The match ended with Saitch winner in three straight sets, 10-8, 7-5, 6-4. ‘TED THOMPSON CONQUERS EDGAR BROWN Ted Thompson may not know how to pose for a photograph, but he cer- tainly knows how to play tennis, At least he trounced Edgar G. Brown, the Braggart. And the irony of it is that it was done in the semi-finals. Then, Ted went on to win the national singles tennis championship by de- |feating Saitch in the finals. Saitch reached the finals by defeating Tally Holmes in the semi-finals. That was-an upset. The victory of Ted, how- ever over both Brown and Saitch was the inevitable. Those who have watched him on the courts this season_knew that his skill and form would carry him on to the championship. The Bordentown tournament was largely a District of Columbia triumph. Washington players took most of the events. Thompson and Holmes won the men’s doubles. Lenore Cook won the junior singles. In the East. vs. | West games, Johmnie Wilkinson defeated Simmons of Ohio. There weren't many other events to win. A x CLARK GRIFFITH WRONG : In one respect Griffith is wrong. He will not permit a colored baseball team to play a white club in the American League park because of a near fight which occurred several years ago when the Brooklyn Royals were play- | ing Joe Judge's All-Stars. Last Sunday a game between a white and a colored club was scheduled. Billy’ Smith, who received his training im the Southern and Texas leagues, without notice, would not permit the game to be played. There is no more reason for barring games between white |and colored clubs than there is for stopping league games because of j riotous scenes which have occurred in league parks from time to time | Grit is wrong. aS XN ~y | 4 a = R: TED THOMPSON oe to the surprise of the fans, who expected Holmes to reach the finals. This was the first time in many years that Holmes failed to reach the finals. In the ladies’ singles event, Miss Ballard of Philadelphia, caused quite an upset when'she defeated Miss Isa- ore Channels, three times national ghampicn, in two straight sets, 6-4, 2. PL eneis Cock “ot Washington, won ‘the junior singles event by defeating ‘Trotman two straight sets, 6-0, 6-2. quit the men’s doubles Holmes and ‘Thompson, of Washington, retained ‘their title by defeating Saitch and Smith, of New York, in three straight sets, 6-4, 6-3, 6-4. Dr. Downing and Mrs. Seames of Chicago, won the mixed doubles event over their opponents, Mr. and Mrs. Jones in two straight sets, 6-4, 7-5. “Ma” Seames is a veteran of many gantes. She still holds her own how- ever. An_added attraction this year was the East and West matche:. Repre- sentative players of both sections played for the sectional champion- ship. The East was winner in all of these events. Kenneth Worde. of New Jersey, defeated Hudlin, of Mis- souri, in the singles events, two straight sets, 7-5, 6-2; Wilkinson, of Washington, defeated” Simmons,” of Ohio 6-4, 2-6, 62, In the ladies’ sin- gles Miss Washington, of Philadel- phia, defeated Miss Channels, of Chi- cago straight sets, 7-5, 4-2. The doubles team of Saitch and Smith, of New York, defeated Hudiin and Rus- sell Smith’ of Chicago. Beautiful trophies were awarded the winners and runners up. “Ted” Thompson was awarded a lez on the B, M.

McCard three- year trophy and an’ individual cup from the American Tennis Associa- tion. Winners in the junior singles and doubles events were awarded in- dividual trophies. During the finals the visitors were entertained by a demonstration of prankish feats of the “Biscuit” Club. New members were initiated into the order. The neophyte was required to “salaam” a huge biscuit. When go- ing through the motion, clad in pa- jamas or nighshirt, he was severely jostled by other members of the or- der, He had to play the part of “bail boy” during the day at the command of the leader, who is known as the head “dough.” — Sterling Brown, of Washington, is head “dough.” Republic Theatre You Street, near Fourteenth CONTINUOUS EVERY DAY—3 to 11 PM.

The Wilkensons paid Mr. Anderson $15,000 for halt.- interest in the play. The letter (copy below) speaks volumes for San Fran- ciseo's appreciation of her native son. San Francisco, Cal., August 7, 1925 Hon. John F, Hylan, Mayor's Office, New York City. Dear Mayor Hylan: I am giving this letter of introduc- tion to Mr. Garland Anderson of San Francisco who is about to start on a motor trip across the continent tc New York, where in October will take. place the premiere production of bis new play “Appearances.” Mr. Andersen has ‘lived in San Franciseo ever ‘sce his early boy- hocd, and his education, outside of four years at school, has been self- acquired. For fifteen’ years Mr, An- derson has been bell-hop at various San Francisco hotels, his latest em- ployment being in that capacity at the Braeburh Hotel Apartments of this city. The central theme of “Appear ances” ‘and the theme which has guided Mr. Anderson and brought him to success is that with proper expen- diture of will power and energy, 2 man can make of himself anything he de- sires. Naturally, the production of the play proves the truth of the phil- esophy which the play contains, be- cause with the premiere of “Appear- anees” in New York Mr. Anderson ceases to be-a bellboy and becomes an accepted dramatist. He has just sold to Messrs, H. 8. and Fergus Wilkinson of San Fran- ciseo-a half interest in this play for $15,000.00 and the play has received the approval of David Belasco, Hey- wood Broun, Al. Jolson, Marjorie Rambeau, Nance O'Neil, Richard Ben- nett and various other critics and ‘theatrical leaders. San Francisco 1s intensely proud of tHe achievement of Mr. Anderson and is sending him to New York with ‘the warm good wishes of every one of our citizens. He is a friend of Mayor Roolph, ‘who is|now in. Washington, ‘D.C., and were the mayor here, I -am ‘sure he would spare no words in ree- ommending~ Mr. Anderson to your courteous consideration. It is simply the desire of Mr. An- derson to pay his respects to you and I am certain that you will not be most pleased to receive and congratulate this young man who has through un- remitting personal endeavor and ap- plication of high-minded ideals, be- come recognized in the theatrical world 2s.a playwright of genius and distinction. With the mayor's and my own xarmest personal compliments, be- lieve me, ‘Very sincerely yours, (Signed) ‘Acting Mayor of San Francisco Because you have played this picture, don't let that stop you from booking it again with DUDLEY'S PERSONAL APPEARANCE.

Opening the Show With this issue, the Tribune begins a very definite policy of service to the amusement world and its associated interests. The paper will by this step, in nowise reduce or alter its purpose to be a medium of general news to a local or wider public. In fact the theatrical phase of our race life is important to all, for it is a distinct contribution to the progress of the race that is one of the most important links in the chain of relations with American life. The amusement field is an important outlet for those of us endowed with especial talents and for the many trained in music and other cultural arts. Nearly twenty thousand Negroes find employment in one branch or the other—on the stage, on the platform, in orchestra pits, under the canvas tops and in the many supplementary lines. The economic importance of this large group is of serious consequence. The expenditures of the race group in the theatrical circles entitles them to known all that is available about those who entertain them, and the profession, denied the usual neighborhood exchange of gossip by virtue of the traveling their work compels, must rely almost entirely upon the printed word for knowledge of one another and for information that will apprise them of business opportunities and prospects. Realizing the responsibility imposed upon a writer on these subjects to both general public and profession, the Tribune proposes to present the news of the amusement world in a clear and concise form. Dependable sources of news supply have been arranged for. The facts that the Tribune, through the consolidation of the Actors Union News with the Tribune theatrical department, will have constant and direct connection with a thousand active members of the show world itself assures authoritative information from all over the land. The office of the secretary of the National Deacons Club will henceforth be in the Tribune offices. Add to this the strong New York connections, the acquaintanceship with managers and agents enjoyed by the editor; and the files of information acquired during five years on the staff of the Billboard, and a premise is established for "live" news and news that is dependable. The service to profession and public that characterized his former connection is "promised in the Tribune pages and office. The Page" solicits correspondence, personal calls and your full co-operation to the end that we may present. We have started. It is up to the profession to determine if the standard established is to be maintained. Readers interest must be supplemented with practical support for the official organ they have selected as their mountpiece. LINCOLN THEATER PART OF MERGER WITH RESERVATION THAT PERMITS SALE TO NEGROES The long discussed merger of the Crandall Theaters in Washington with the Stanley interests of which Jules E. Mastbaum is president has been complated. The Lincoln Theater is named as being among those taken over by the big interest in which Harry M. Crandall retains a 25 per cent interest with the title of vice-president of the Stanley-Crandall Corporation. The local staff of the theaters has been retained in the employ of the larger concern. An interview with Mr. Charles Lane, Jr., manager of the Lincoln Theatre, discloses that the sale does not affect the proposition to sell that house to a Negro corporation, and that his plans to that end are being pushed to a rapid conclusion. It would seem that the Stanley interests while willing to take the house as part of the bigger deal have a tendency to feel that an ownership that was closer to the patronage than they can possibly get would have a greater measure of success with it which would be advantageous to them in that they would retain the booking interest. The purchasing parties involved in the larger deal have long been both film and vaudeville or presentation bookers in Philadelphia, and they have booked many Negro acts into their houses. This gives the merit of knowledge born of experience to their argument. J.A.JACKSON'S THEATRICAL PAGE HERE AND THERE HERE AND THERE "Rarin' To Go" was the first of the Columbia Circuit shows to play Washington. It promptly justified the expectations of the circuit as to the box office value of the colored performer, "Seven Eleven," the pioneer on the circuit will be next. This is the big full-sized Hurtig and Seamon attraction. Following that in six weeks we will have another mixed company. Jack Reids "Record Breakers" with the Drake and Walker company providing the colored contingent. Then will come "Lucky Sambo." These shows are spaced so as to permit the appearance of about six of the usual burlesque shows between every two of the Negro attractions. Many of the otherwise white shows have Negro specialty teams. These will be listed in this paper soon so that readers may know when to find their own in the circuit houses. Chet Potter and his "Harlem Ramblers" have been putting in the summer at Domino Inn, North Greece, N.Y. He is a Springfield, Mass., orchestra manager of the younger school. Bill (Bojangles), the highest salaried single act on the big-time, motored over to Richmond with Monarch Lodge folks and brought back another silver cup presented for his unique running ability. Incidentally he broke the southern aversion to a Negro act, for the local Keith manager promises that he is going to insist on having "Bojangles" play his house. While there he was the special guest of that manager. Kendall Holland, who staged "The Demi-Virgin" and other dramatic productions, has succeeded in finding a producer for Madame Robinson's "Rugged Road," a southern story of very great dramatic interest. Rehearsals are scheduled for an early start in New York.

The story describes the adventures of a beautiful crook in the homes of millionaires and in the studios of Hollywood.

A Metro-Goldwyn picture, "Pretty Ladies" will be shown on Thursday and Friday, September 10, 11. It is the story of a girl in the world of pretty ladies. They laughed at her antics—but love passed her by. Then Romance came her way, and she thought happiness was hers at last. But she failed to reckon with the lure of Broadway—but her unswerving faith brought back to her arms an erring husband from a life of wine, women and song. Tom Moore and Zasu Pitts have the leading roles. A great chorus of beauties is seen in this picture. Ann Pennington dances the Charleston. Many of the scenes in the picture are in technicolor.

THE DEACONS The members of the Deacons' Club of Prince Hall Masons are hereby notified that hereafter the office of the National secretary will be addressed at 920 U Street, Northwest, Washington, D. C., the office of this publication. The Trbione will in conjunction with the Fraternal Review of Chicago endeavor to keep the "fellows who know their alphabet." The new address will last until P.P., be governed accordingly. For the time being, mail will be forwarded from the former New York address. Joseph Sullivan, Grand Master of New York and Jurisdiction has been designated as chairman of the board of supervising Grand Masters of the Deacons Club. His official notification was made at an elaborate banquet tendered him by his lodge at Albany, N.Y., recently. His commission dates from August 1. R. E. Carey of Dallas, Texas, has sent in the first communication to the new office. He asks a group of intelligent questions that betokens serious interest in "The Travelling Gavel." The first application came from the Silas Green Show, via "Club Hawkins," senior deacon at Memphis. James Hudson and James R. Jackson are the boys entitled to the battered hats and the gang of P.P. letters. Coy Herndon cooked up that mess for the Tennessee corner. The Columbus Corner, No. 8, was much in evidence among the Elks. A lot of those high-class musicians were scattered in the crowd of antlered ones. If you don't believe it, ask the Richmond girls. Deacon Bob Hayes has quit travelling and is managing the Poyner Lunch Room on South State Street, Chicago. His advertising bears the salutations of the Elks, Masons, Decons and the Actors Union. Sure, Bob believes in mixin' with the folks who speak his language. National vice-president, Al Wells, did his act at three performances for the Elks, and between times looked out for the boys' interests at Richmond. Stuck strictly to business, too. Mrs. Wells was with him, and Luella belongs to all the women's branches of Masonry and is a daughter Elk. Mighty good influence for Al she makes. Proudest Deacon of the week. Eastern vice-president Leigh Whippier who opened the New Orpheum Theatre, Newark and turned away over four hundred people after admitting the house capacity of 1600. Deacon of greatest achievement, Jose Sherwood, of St. Paul who had a resolution passed in the Minnesota convention of the American Legion requiring state organizations to make full explanation for their reasons for denying any local body a charter. Sure put over a body blow with that on the prejudiced state officials in the legion. His pleasure was dimmed by the loss of his mother just at the time he was working on the convention Whitney and Tutt Open Season The new edition of the Whitney and Tutt show opens at the Lafayette Theatre, New York City on September 7th, moving to the Orpheum Theater, Newark, N. J., for the next week, after which the company has been booked over substantially the same tour that they have covered each season to growing popularity.

Detroit to a turnaway business. He is supported by a carefully selected vaudeville unit that will play the northern tier of T. O. B. A. Theatres, and perhaps accept some other bookings that have been tendered before returning to his duties at the desk in Washington as vice-president of the Theater Owners Booking Association. Mrs. Desdemonia Dudley and Lloyd Wykes, office manager, are handling the booking business during his absence. LILLIAN EVANS TIBBS RETURNS HOME Mrs. Lillian Evans Tibbs who has been studying music in Paris, France, for the past fifteen months, returned here yesterday for a short stay. She arrived in New York on the steamship Savoie and came immediately to Washington. Madame Evanti, as she is known in grand opera circles in Europe, will return to France in the latter part of October. She will fill grand opera engagements as a colatura soprano at the Casino of Nice. She will also appear in other cities of France during the season. In Paris Madame Evanti was a pupil of Madame Ritter-Ciampi. She made her debut in grand opera in Nice last March in the leading role of Lakme. The critics were agreed that her debut was remarkable. Recently she gave a joint recital with a famous pianist over the radio. Returning she sang aboard the ship in a special concert. Madame Evanti is one of the very few coloratura sopranos in France. She also bears the distinction of being the first and only woman of her race to appear in grand opera. She is the daughter of the late SEND SIXTY Colored Actors Uni a valuable volume of theatrical Negro History from 1733 to 1924 Colored show business will find a valuable volume of theatrical and travel information with some Negro History from 1733 to 1924.

"The opening Saturday, August 29th of the New Orpheum Theatre, under the management of Leigh Whipper for the United Exposition Company, was a most auspicious event in the theatrical history of the Race. It means the addition of another up-to-date, full-sized house to the list that will soon provide sufficient continuous booking to make a certainty of the booking and economical routing of a better grade of Negro shows. The house was sold out three days in advance for the opening performance. A large delegation from Harlem, (New York City) was present, The Deacons, Masonic friends and theatrical associates took advantage of the opportunity to pay a tribute of esteem to the lanky manager, who by the way is a Howard University "boy" and a brother of Dr. Whipper of Washington. The Newark Sunday Call devoted double column space to the occasion. in the story they tell of a busy police squad to handle traffic, of notables present and of a strong bill that actually "wowed" the audience. More than 600 were turned away, this paper stated. Among the New Yorkers of prominence who attended were Jesse Shipp, the veteran stage manager; Charles Gilpin who had just returned from an engagement with the original Provincetown Players; Jennie Hillman famed costumer; Mr. and Mrs. Henry Hammel of the Al Woods office staff. Johnnie Hudgins, Broadway's pet comic; Hattie Christian, Ralph Love, Manager Charity of the Renaissance Theatre, and Billy Pierce, the Navex Building booking agent and producer. There were many others, the list of them would be a blue book of the theatrical and night life folks of the big town. Manager Whiper made a brief address between the acts during which he read telegrams and congratulatory letters from yet many other friends whose business or other engagements prevented attendance. The Initial Bill was starred by Butterbeans and Susie. Francis Smith and Grace Rector, The Two Georgia Browns, Bailey and Teare, the Ward duo and several feature films including the "Gang" comedies provided an unusually high-calibred program that establishes a standard for the house that places it in the first rank of race theatres.

DIVORCES—WHY THE INCREASE? a miasma which seemingly is increasing the age of our most established institutions—marshes, classes, from the lowest to the so-called high ones, scope has it become that wagging tongues and thither seeking new names and causeful minds are buried in meditation trying to a hope of discovering a remedy. Each year increasing number of those who find the so-called normy for travel. What is the source of what is it carried? of the conditions of to-day forces us to consider exists on all sides. We find that this the direction is a permanent element of human life so-called literature of our day and the mediate happiness in marriage. They are given and depiction of "romance." They deserve marriage; portray events leading up to romance. Romance is the one outstanding influence on youth. And it comes lacking an adequate effect of consequences is seen in operation as a process which have occurred in the last two decades of humanity in large cities: cities from a high economic function to the woman of her special sphere and has furtherpart. It is destroying group life and function in man and woman alike. It is a mass of the individual and embittering it by intimidation a multitude. A moment comes; a cold wave of indifference permosphere, and marital troubles begin. Man goes, "for better or for worse." And it worses; because our courts, in seeking to foster injustice to the stronger and tempesty easy for them to obtain a certain amount same time alimony sufficient to carry the chase of romance. The men, while their classes deserve punishment, have such meted out commensurate with the end desired. So, it is apparent that our morals have been based of supply and demand. Men, because construction, demand certain thrills and, even at the cost of severing their marriage their future pleasures, supply them—the remedy? Our courts must grant him make it less easy to be obtained. For as again unchanged, there is a temptation, up to, to run to the courts, thus increasing the need we must change our moral standard. The facts that adolescent love is an evidential. The first is a critical phase of this sustained vocation. The desire to retrain attraction is imbecility. Love for a wife conceive of life without her. The music of days after the marriage ceremony, when this achieved. For both man and woman, the should hold rest, understanding and sympathy. There is a miasma which seemingly is increasing in its effects upon one of our most established institutions—marriage. It is affecting all classes, from the lowest to the so-called highest. So broad in its scope has it become that wagging tongues are carried hither and thither seeking new names and causes for gossip, and thoughtful minds are buried in meditation trying to find the causes with a hope of discovering a remedy. Each week there is found an increasing number of those who find the sea of matrimony too stormy for travel. What is the source of this divorce wave? On what is it carried? A study of the conditions of to-day forces us to conclude that some wrong exists on all sides. We find that this thing we call romantic affection is a permanent element of human nature. We find that the so-called literature of our day and the "movies" tend to repudiate happiness in marriage. They are given over to the discussion and depiction of "romance." They describe events leading up to marriage; portray events leading up to divorce and re-marriage. Romance is the one outstanding influence brought to bear upon youth. And it comes lacking an adequate discussion of sex. The law of consequences is seen in operation as a result of the many changes which have occurred in the last two generations. The modern aggregation of humanity in large cities has reduced domestic duties from a high economic function to drudgery. It has deprived woman of her special sphere and has found her no feminine counterpart. It is destroying group life and the feeling of group function in man and woman alike. It is increasing the loneliness of the individual and embittering it by making it a loneliness amid a multitude. Disagreement comes; a cold wave of indifference permeates the domestic atmosphere, and marital troubles begin. Then to the courts woman goes, "for better or for worse." And it is, in most cases, for worse; because our courts, in seeking to protect the weaker sex, foster injustice to the stronger and tempt women by making it so easy for them to obtain a certain amount of freedom and at the same time alimony sufficient to carry them on while they run in chase of romance. The men, while they in a large number of cases deserve punishment, have such meted out to them which is not commensurate with the end desired. Then, too, it is apparent that our morals have been put on a commercial basis of supply and demand. Men, because of their biological construction, demand certain thrills and excitement; and women, even at the cost of severing their marital relations and thwarting their future pleasures, supply them—thus, divorces. What is the remedy? Our courts must grant less alimony, or at least make it less easy to be obtained. For as long as conditions remain unchanged, there is a temptation, upon the least provocation, to run to the courts, thus increasing the burdens of society. Or we must change our moral standard. We must lay stress upon the facts that adolescent love is an event; married life is a situation. The first is a critical phase of development, the second is sustained vocation. The desire to retain a special mystery or attraction is imbecility. Love for a wife implies an inability to conceive of life without her. The music of the spheres begins, years after the marriage ceremony, when this happy condition is achieved. For both man and woman, the domestic atmosphere should hold rest, understanding and sympathy. UNIONIZING PULLMAN PORTERS ment is on foot, fostered by A.

The sooner friend-ing factor in the selection and election, the quicker will unionism be appre A movement is on foot, fostered by A. Phillip Randolph of "The Messenger," to concert the efforts and thoughts of Pullman Porters. Such a movement is much needed among the porters. In fact any move which will create in them an appreciation of the potentiality of unionism is welcome. Many movements have been put on foot heretofore—movements which it was claimed were for the benefit of the porters; but, in reality, were schemes for making money. In every such organization, regardless of the one who directs it, there is likely to be some whose sole objective is the dollar. These "money-grabbers" are found even in the Federal Government, but the Government does not cease to function because of them. Nor should we cease to advocate unionism because we have been fleeched out of money. "In union there is strength" for the Government and likewise strength for Pullman Porters. The point is to be sure that the organization is founded on principles actuated by the common good of all concerned, and then make it function according to Hoyle. Men should be selected to direct it who are best qualified as to intelligence and sincerity. Friendship should have no value. The sooner friendship ceases to be a deciding factor in the selection and election of heads of organizations, the quicker will unionism be appreciated by the masses. WITHHOLD JUDGMENT er L.

Finley Wilson of this city, as grand exalted ruler of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World, over a strong competitor is a demonstration of that power that we said, two weeks ago, existed in the order. Only by shrewd maneuvering did Wilson succeed himself. However, it is not the re-election which is of the most interest to us here, but the power which brought it about. The very fact that the order possesses men so astute as to be able to make a winner out of an apparent loser indicates that these or others are crafty enough to put over a movement which will not only benefit the members, but also the Race as a whole. We are expecting these shrewd minds to spread among their members the spirit of organization so that co-ordinate efforts of all other orders may result. By so doing they can put into action much latent force. THE WASHINGTON AMBULANCE SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1925 MUSIC FORUM By Wellington A.

Opening her program with "O Mio Fernando" from "Lafavorita" by Donizetta, accompanied by William King, one of the greatest of our artists in his line, she sent her clear-finished tones to the farthermost corner of the big stadium. An enthusiastic encore from a ninety per cent white audience announced the complete acceptance of her magnificent voice as one of the elect of the music world.

We believe that just such innovations of similar form on Sunday evenings in our churches would draw more definitely away from other lighter frivolities of a non-religious character than would the regular routine of Sunday evening services now and for a long time past, in vogue. Give the people something worth while, make the church services attractive in both form and character, make the music meritoriously divine and the sermonette, if you please, short, spicy, elegant but with full spiritual essence and religious fervor and it would better other attractions in drawing power a thousand-fold.

Further demands brought forth Liza Lehmans' "Cuckoo" and "Love in My Heart." Her work was characterized by case of delivery and mastery of technique. At the conclusion of the appearance she was tendered an informal reception at the studio apartment of Mrs Rebecca Emory and Lavinia V. Jackson near the stadium. Edward M. Syphax, the Washington pipe organ artist, was a co-guest of honor. The party that paid tribute to the famed singer included about twenty persons who rank high in the literary and artistic life of the country. All in all, Miss Anderson had a triumphant evening, and this is but the beginning of a career of great promise.

ARROWAY HAIR CAP PETER B. LAW AND ORDER BILL PENDING IN GEORGIA Atlanta, Ga. (Special)—Georgia will join the growing list of Southern states which are taking active steps to end rioting and mob violence if the Legislature enacts the Law and Order bill introduced in the House of Representatives last week. The bill, entitled "An Act to Maintain Law and Order," provides that in any case of riot, riotous assembly, or mob violence, careful investigation shall be made by the Judge of the Superior Court. If it appears from this investigation that any sheriff, deputy sheriff, jailer, or other peace officer was negligent or incompetent in dealing with such disorder, the Chief Justice or other Justice of the Supreme Court shall appoint a special Law and Order Commission to hear all the evidence in the case and render judgment as to the faithfulness or negligence of the officer in question. If he is found by the Commission to have been negligent, judgment to that effect shall be communicated to the Governor, who in turn shall remove the officer from his position. Proof that any person was taken from the custody of the officer by the mob, or killed or injured while in his custody, shall be prima facie evidence of neglect, to be offset only by affirmative proof that the officer had in fact used all reasonable precaution and exercised the utmost deligence in the effort to maintain order. The bill provides further that in the case of an officer so adjudged negligent in the prevention of rioting or violence, that Attorney General of the State shall bring suit against such officer for the full value of any property destroyed by the mob and for the sum of $5000 for each homicide committed by it. Any person removed from office under the provisions of the act shall be disqualified for a period of five years to hold any peace office of the state, county, or municipality. Friends of the measure point out that it is in line with similar laws enacted in other Southern states which have been found very effective in the reduction of mob violence. It is said to be widely supported by religious civic and welfare organizations over the State.

What the scientists will say that slee Having borne their sixty-four hour vigil with amiable fortitude, the sleepless eight of George Washington University seemingly have concluded that beefsteak rather than slumber is the "chief norisher of life's feast." Such an ordeal has been frequently endured for as many hours by insomniacs; but without the note-taking on metabolism, blood pressure, et cetera, which attended the sleepless eight's experiment. The scientists may have learned something new about behaviorism through this essay in wakefulness. What the sleepy-head may apprehend is that scientists will say that sleep is largely a waste of time. Ever since William James averred that almost everybody had stores of reserve power which is never unlocked, psychologists have been casting about for ways to prevent the wastage of unutilized power. Naturally they have coveted the years wasted in sleep. Three hours a night sufficed for Humboldt and for Napoleon so they said. As for Mr. Edison, the classic wide-awake of our time, he is reported to have nodded all evening at Plymouth, Vt., while the rest of the company was lively. But whether the I. L.

If sleep had not been provided, Edison might have invented it. It is the sloth of ordinary persons which is in question. At various times it has been suggested that the growing prevalence of insomnia is a hopeful sign, showing that man is arousing from unnecessary mental torpor, shaking off a habit which arose simply because the night was dark. There is no reason for the custom in this age of illumination. The depression of the persons who do not sleep because they can not is said to be dehusive. They believe that they should sleep, therefore they are worried by their failure to do so. It is the anxiety which does the harm. Still, the old-fashioned family physician—if there be one left—will tell you that eight hour's sleep is a good health recipe. With all the devices for its assassination, sleep, even in Washington, retains a remnant of its popularity.

To cover enormous dis- with true aim is a definite no. The Naval Research Laboratory and the Carnegie Institution have devised means for measuring the defective properties of the "heavy-side layer," the ionized region, which has enabled radio experts and especially the clever amateurs to do marvels with short wave lengths. Scientists hope to select accurately the proper wave length for the desired point of reception. Heretofore, operators have known that the waves would land; but, like the arrow shot into the air, they did not know precisely where the radio-roof would deflect the message to the earth. Scientists now hope to improve transmission by bouncing the waves from the "ceiling of the sky." This important technical advance does not noticeably affect the long waves of the powerful broadcasting stations; for the range and the required energy of this field of communication are well understood. But the new development may effect an immense saving in commercial radio telegraphy, in view of the announcement that direct contact will be assured between distant stations on waves of high frequency. It will effect a vast economy of power. Secretary of the Navy, Wilbur, assures us that high frequency transmitting stations at a cost of $60,000 will give better service and longer range than power stations costing $2,000,000 each. To cover enormous distances on extremely low power and with true aim is a definite step forward in the science of radio. When you deal with us we ene need know the cost of you funeral, but yourself.

J., Sept. 3—The third national conference of the Negro youth movement of America was held here last week, August 28th and 29th. Dr. Chas. A. Lewis, of Philadelphia nominated the late Booker T. Washington for the "Hall of Fame." The discussions varied from the consideration of a practical program to carry out the idea of "Business Preparedness" throughout the race, our political conditions, and needs to that of the contribution of our youth to race and nation through the Sesqui-Centennial International Exposition to be held in Philadelphia next year. The sessions opened Friday afternoon for registration, and the resultant roll showed a list of names from all sections from a line connecting St. Paul, Minnesota, and Hartford, Connecticut southward, Geo.

So successful has been the start of the Greater Movie Season that more than 8000 exhibitors in the country have united in a determination to give the public the best film entertainment by booking Paramount Pictures exclusively in connection with Paramount-Week, September 6-13. This fact has just been disclosed by the Famous Players-Lasky Corporation. It is significant that The Tribune has been chosen by the producers of Paramount Pictures as the medium through which to advertise the advent of the week. More than 3500 selected newspapers are being used and the sum spent is one of the largest ever paid out by any American corporation to newspapers in a single day and it is being distributed by a discriminating advertising manager. During the past year Paramount made a strong bid mtl public favor. It released such pictures as "The Ten Commandments," "The Covered Wagon," "Manhandled," "Monsieur Beaurea," "Peter Pan," "Merton of the Movies," "North of '36" and others. And during the coming year it holds yet greater promise to the film fans of the country. For Paramount has signed director, D. W. Griffith; and the two stellar comedians, Harold Lloyd and Douglas MacLean, both of whom will release their pictures through the Famous Players-Lasky Corporatein. Realizing its responsibility to the public, recognizing the steady improvement necessary to keep faith, the makers of Paramount pictures this year have thrown the entire weight of their immense resources into the fight, and have spared no expense to get the best directors, the best writers, the best artists in the world. Paramount Week means the end of a season of triumphs and the forecast of a greater one to come.

Westerfield, 113 Thomas Street, Northwest, who is suing her husband, Samuel Westerfield, 1503 R Street, Northwest, for a limited divorce and in turn is being sued by him for an absolute divorce, denies her husband's charges of misconduct. She alleges in her answer to her husband's cross bill, in which he names Eugean B. Woodford, 736 Kenyon Street, Northwest, as co-respondent, that he has committed perjury in an effort to carry out his threat to blacken her character and humiliate her. She declares that the abuses and humiliations to which she has been subjected, can only be accounted for "in the disordered mind of her husband resulting from low moral and unnatural practices." Mr. Westerfield, who at one time, undertook the practice of law in Chicago, was arrested, tried and convicted and fined $40 on August 9, 1919, in the municipal court of that city, on a charge of indecent exposure to four little girls; Mrs. Westerfield sets forth in her answer. Mrs. Westerfield denies that she committed adultery with the correspondent on May 30, 1925, at his residence, as her husband charges, or at any other time or place, or with any other person. She denies that she ever told her husband that she was working late at night at the Government Printing Office, where both she and the correspondent are employed, unless such statement was true. She says that at one time she was working from 8 p.m., to 4:30 a.m., but that her husband never on any occasion came to meet her in his Ford car, although she had more than a mile to go through the lonely streets. She admits that on one occasion she was overtaken by Mr. Woodford, both of whom were on their way to work, and was walking along the street with him when her husband drove up and created a scene. After work when she went home, Mrs. Westerfield declares that her husband again abused her, called her vile names and brutally assaulted her and she was compelled to take their two children to the home of her aunt for protection. The following morning she says, he came to her aunt's home and begged forgiveness. Mrs. Westerfield is represented by Attorneys Edmund Hill, Jr., and Thomas Walker. Attorney J. T. Settle is representing both Mr. Westerfield and Mrs. Woodford, who is suing her husband for an absolute divorce, naming Mrs. Westerfield as the correspondent.
