NEVAL H. THOMAS MAKES PRINGIPAL BOSTON ADDRESS BOSTON, Mass.—Neval H. Thomas, president of the Washington Branch of the N.A.A.C.P. and member of the boar dof directors of the association, was the principal speaker at the "Salem Race Day" observation here, June 16, at Faneuil Hall, and at the "Cradle of Liberty" celebration at Bunker Hill Monument on June 17. In his address, Mr. Thomas said: "Seregation is the greatest issue before the American people, this country's most widespread evil. It is war against democracy and human progress, hence against the Constitution of our country. It was invented to kill the soul and destroy the self respect of a great people, and to promote the conceit and intolerance and the political, civil, and economic advantage of the dominant group. Splendid Traditions "I am thankful for the splendid traditions of equality that fill the pages of Massachusetts history, but I deplore the fact that with this same great commonwealth in the saddle at Washington there is more segregation than at any time since the Civil War. In every department of the federal and municipal government there is pronounced discrimination in positions, salaries, quotas of appointments, toilets, rest rooms and restaurant. "Nearby, I saw the statutes of Summer. Phillips, and Garrison, and with them those of Crispus Attucks, and the black regiments of Civil War fame. We have just marched from the spot where black and white blood flowed in one crimson stream in the Boston Massacre, and we are here celebrating the one-hundred fifty-third anniversary of the daring and tideturning herism of Peter Salem and Salem Poor at Bunker Hill and in the name of all of these services and sacrifices let us appeal again and again to President Coolidge for the abolition of every vestige of segregation from the Federal service and the Nation's capital, most of which can be done by mere executive order. "This great commonwealth must not lose her heritage. We must resist the march of the segregated school, the un-Christian "Y," hospitals, and every other civil distinction that is so generously offered to us." Other speakers were W. Monroe Trotter. A. G. Wolff, of the Boston Equal Rights League, Rev. C. Someville, Mrs. M. Cravath Simpson, Rev. Charles V. Smith, Rev. Leroy Ferguson. Rev. B. W. Swain, Dr. Alice W. McKane, and Mrs. Minnie T. Wright.

PUBLISHED WEEKLY IS FACE I e Baker Becomes Coun COOKS-WAITERS DELEGATES TO MEET AUG. 23 HARRISBURG, Pa., June 24 (Preston News Service)—Elaborate preparations are being made here for the entertainment of the delegates to the National Association of Colord Waiters and Cooks, which is scheduled to hold a four days' convention in this city beginning August 23. The association which is only one year old, will have representatives from 36 states. The local program committee has announced that the governor of the state, mayor of Harrisburg, president of the Chamber of Commerce and president of the American and United Hotel association will greet the delegates with appropriate addresses. Reduced rates will be granted on all railroads. Demonstrations in modern hotel service will be one of the features of the convention. Experts from many of the leading hotels will take part in the event. A parade will be held on August 25 in which hotels will lead the various groups of delegates. The following night has been set for the grand ball. The association came to Harrisburg for its second annual convention upon the invitation of local white business men, who extended the welcome at the first annual meeting in Chicago, last year. Officers of the association are Chylow H. Brown, president, Chicago; Morris A. Cowan, vice-president, Harrisburg, Pa.; S. R. Duneavley, secretary, St. Louis, Mo.; C. Sullivan Carr, recording secretary Chicago; Samuel Blevins, treasurer, Birmingham, Ala. and Albert G. Barnett, national organizer. DR. SARAH W. BROWN VISITS FLOOD DISTRICT D. Dr. Sara W. Brown, alumni trustee of Howard University, left Washington Sunday night for the flood area where she is to assist in the social hygiene emergency program of the American Social Hygiene Association which is being carried out under the direction of Dr. Valeria Parker. Dr. Roscoe C. Brown, also a graduate of Howard University Medical School, is also assisting with this work in the devastated region. Headquarters will be at New Orleans, Louisiana. By Albert Brooks Josephine Baker, 21-year-old bronze beauty, from the U.S.A., is now Countess Josephine di Albertini. This little idol of Paris has married an Italian Count. By so doing, she has added color to a jaded Italian aristocracy; scarcely anything but titles could be added to Josephine. Miss Baker has been called the idol of Paris, which means she is a real artist; for Paris has long since been the bane of artistic medicencies. In Paris, the great artists reach the heights, and Josephine is great. It has not been long since Miss Baker performed in this country in minor roles in the popular road shows that toured the cities of the East. She played in the "Chocolate Dandies," "Bamville," and "Shuffle Along." In such shows, Miss Baker was considered just a good chorus girl but she was constantly in demand for such roles. During these years, she was still in her teens, a striling in of a lass. In 1924, she joined the "Plantation Review," on the winter garden roof in New York City. Josephine had now reached the age of 17; but she already was some stepper. At this early age, her talent had gained appearance before appreciative audiences; her success was assured. The reports of Miss Eaker's reverses of six years back are all poppy-cock; for who would expect wonderful achievements of 'a 15-year-old girl? She was merely a "kid," following her hobby, gaining experience—just a diamond in the rough! Opportunity came to her at 19 years of age. She was taken with twenty-one singers and dancers to Europe. The troupe finally reached Paris, the goal of great artists; and here, Josephine reached the hearts of Parisians. Other girls had reached the heights in Paris. Florence, at Mitchell's, had been the favorite of Montmarte. The Prince of Wales had been a regular visitor; and many nights, franc notes had been waved by enthusiastic crowds, seeking admission. But, what happened when Josephine hit Paris? She set Paris on the ears. She was different; she had color; and Paris, used to everything, saw something new. So it was a short step to the Follies Bergeres, where Paris worshipped its theatrical idol. But this short step gave the talented Josephine the luxuries of life. Imagine this 21-year-old girl, with a chateau, a limousine, and a French maid. She revels in silks, jewels, and finery. Now she has married a count. She is now Countess Josephine. And so runs the story of the poor little St. Louis girl, who went to Paris. DR. JOHN C. NORWOOD DIES; ILL TWO WEEKS Dr. John C. Norwood, 68, prominent physician, died at his home, 911 Rhode Island avenue, northwest, 911 Rhode Island avenue, northwest, Saturday, after an illness of two weeks. For the past forty-six years he has been a clerk in the United States Treasury Department. He was graduated from the Howard Medical School in 1844, and began practice here immediately afterward. He was a clerk in the general accounting office of the Treasury Department at the time of his retirement in March. Dr. Norwood was an active member of St. Luke's Episcopal Church, and last Easter was elected senior warden emeritus for life. He was also a remember of Union Friendship Lodge, Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, of which he was secretary for thirty-three years. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Irene Norwood, and three sons, John, of this city, and Dr. Harold and William of Philadelphia. The funeral services were conducted at the residence Tuesday afternoon, at 2 o'clock. R ev. Thomas J. Brown officiated. WASHINGTON, D. C. FRIDAY, JUNE 24, 1927 NEW TRUSTS PUT ON INCOMPLETE MASONIC TEMPLE STRUCTURE New trusts amounting to $434,750 were put on the unfinished Masonic structure at the corner of Tenth and U streets, northwest, last week. There was already owed on the building the sum of $66,000 with interest from April 12, 1826, making the total more than $500,000. Samuel J. Solomon, builder, placed a trust of $220,000 on the property. It bears interest at the rate of 7 per cent a year. It is payable $5,000 at the end of the first six months, $5,000 at the end a year, $5,000 at the end of 18 of a year, $5,000 at the end of two years, and the balance of $200,000 three years from date. The trust is dated June 14, and was filed in the office of the Recorder of Deeds June 15. He deeded the property back to the Grand Lodge on June 13. The unfinished structure was deeded to Solomon shortly after the Most Worshipful' Acacia Grand Lodge of Free Ancient and Accepted Masons of the District of Columbia, of which Charles P. Ford is grand master, purchased it at public auction. Solomon was to complete the building and deed it back to the Grand Lodge, being paid for its completion. Second Trust Another trust of $214,750 was put on the property by the Masonic Grand Lodge as soon as the property was deeded to it. This trust was filed in the office of the Recorder of Deeds June 16. It bears interest at the rate of 6 per cent a year. The total of these two trusts, $434,750, is said to represent the amount which the Grand Lodge is paying Solomon for the building. He is to complete the structure, somewhat modified from the original plans, it is stated. The sum of $66,000 is due the trustees, William L. Houston and Alexander Wolf, who were appointed by the court to sell the building at public auction. Of this sum $33,000 is due July 12. The remaining $33,000 will be due July 12, 1928. The building sold at public auction April 12, 1926, for the sum of $99,000. The terms were a cash deposit of $2,500, one-third of the purchase price within 30 days, one-third in a year and the other one-half in two years. The property on which the unfinished building stands, was purchased by the New Masonic Hall Corporation for $39,650 in April, 1919. The sum of $134,944 has been expended on work on the unfinished structure. Started in 1922 Ground for the construction of the Masonic building was broken in June, 1922. August 8, 1922, the cornerstone was laid. No work has been done on the structure since December, 1923. The building of the temple was undertaken by the New Masonic Hall Corporation, a stock organization. March 17, 1925, Charles Datcher Lodge No. 15, Allan A. C. Griffith and Dr. Elias G. Evans filed suit against the corporation for an accounting, injunction and receivership. As a result of the litigation and inability of the warring factions to come to terms, Justice Hitz authorized the sale of the building at public auction on March 2, 1926. The sale was made April 12, 1926. Let the Tribune follow you on your vacation Let the Tribune follow you on your vacation --- MASONS MUST INVEST A FORTUNE TO COMPLETE TEMPLE ACCORDING TO PRESENT PLANS. According to information available as to the amount of money necessary to complete the unfinished structure according to revised plans, the final cost to the local Masonic craft will be $708,344. The revised plans call for a smaller building than originally planned. The final cost is reckoned by adding up the following figures: Paid by New Masonic Hall Corporation— Ground ..... $39,650 Improvements (present unfinished structure) 134,944 Paid by Grand Lodge— One-third of auction purchase price ..... 33,000 Two-thirds of auction price still due ..... 66,000 price still due ..... 66,000 Mortgages— To secure first trust .....220,000 To secure second trust (Bond issue) .....214,750 TOTAL COST to craft if plans are carried $708,344 It is understood that when the affairs of the New Masonic Hall Corporation are wound up, that the stockholders of the or- ganization will probably have returned to them, about thirty cents on each dollar that they have invested in the stock of the company. COLLEGE OCTETTE HERE NEXT WEEK COLLEGE OCTETTE HERE NEXT WEEK The octette comprising four young women and four young men of Livingstone College, Salisbury, N.C., in its summer tour over the country will appear in vocal concert at Metropolitan Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, 2nd and D streets, southeast, this city at 8 o'clock on Wednesday, June 29. The octette has made for itself an enviable record for entertaining renditions in several cities where it has already appeared. Booker T. Medford, of this city, and a student at the above institution, is a member of the troupe. Mrs. Clarise Jones Micheals, daughter of District Attorney Thomas L. Jones of this city is manager and pianist. The singers are traveling in the interest of the Price Memorial Building Fund of the College. COMMUNITY CENTER OPENED IN MARYLAND Through the efforts of Mrs. Grace Fields, 4930 Fitch street, northeast, a community center was opened Wednesday, June 15, in Deanville, Md., Mrs. Fields gave the land and raised the money to erect the building. The principal address at the opening was made by Mrs. Jas. M. Jackson, of Washington. Her theme was "Friendship." Other remarks were made by Miss Selma Mahoney, Miss Dolly Clark, a solo by Dr. Johnson, a recitation by Mrs. B. Young, solo by Miss V. Mason, and Miss Gertrude Gilmore, remarks by Rev. P. Beal, Q. Pinckney, Harry Brown, Norman Duckett, Mrs. J. E. Warren, Miss Grace Ducket, and C. Duckett. A presentation was made to Miss Boyd by the center, and a beautiful painting of "Old Iron Sides" was presented to the community center by Rev. Alexander Taliferro. The latter acted as master of ceremonies. OFFICE: 920 U STREET, N.W. TO CON Bowler Emory B. Smith And Wife Hurt In Auto Accident While visiting various cities, including Baltimore, Wilmington, Philadelphia, and New York, in the interest of the Howard University Medical Endowment fund, Emory B. Smith and his family met with an accident about six miles from Elkton, Md., Saturday, about 12:30 p.m. Mr. Smith was the most seriously injured. His left hand was severely cut and crushed, and he received a slight bruise on the forehead. In the party were Mrs. Smith, who received a deep gash on her leg; her mother and father, Mr. and Mrs. E. M. Harris, of Germantown, Philadelphia, who were slightly bruised and shocked; and little Emory Harris Smith, who was uninjured. En Route to Wilmington They were on the road from Baltimore to Wilmington, Pa. A stream of cars was passing along, each going at a moderate rate of speed. At the scene of the accident, there is a service station on the left side of the road and several gasoline tanks on the right side of the road. It was at this point that Mr. Smith signaled to pass a Ford car in front of him. The Ford was being driven by Russell Clayton, white, seventeen years old, of Charleston, Md. In- PETER H. BURGESS stead of pulling over to the right, Clayton made a sharp turn to the left toward the service station. The Peerless, being driven by Mr. Smith, struck the Ford solidly, careened off, struck the gasoline tank to the right of the road, knocking it from its base, and then turned wrong side up. The windows of the car had to be broken to extricate the victims. Hand Improving A passing motorist took the injured people to Charlestown for treatment, and from there to Union Hospital in Elkton, Md. Physicians at Elkton declared that it would probably be necessary to amputate Mr. Smiths' hand. Mrs. Smith, however, requested that he be driven to Washington to be placed under the care of Dr. Simeon L. Carson, whom she believed could save her husband's hand. Mr. Smith is now at Dr. Carson's Private Hospital. His hand is healing rapidly, and already he can move each finger. There is practically no danger of losing his hand. Mr. and Mrs. E. M. Harris, had been spending a two-week's vacation here with Mr. and Mrs Smith, and were being taken back to Philadelphia, which was included in the itinerary. The automobile was got badly damaged by the accident. It was driven back to Washington under its own power by J. T. Lloyd, mechanic of the Royal Service Garage.

Dudley is engaged to marry Jean Starr, popular actress, who is now entertaining in the New Paris Cabaret in Chicago, were denied by the former in a communication with the Washington Tribune. Mr. Dudley declared: "I have been informed that I am engaged to be married to Miss Jean Starr. I wish to contradict this through these columns, and I am at a loss to know how such a rumor got out. I may add that I am not looking for a wife, I am looking for help to start a million-dollar picture producing company." He Muses Thusly So much did the rumor affect Mr. Dudley, that he penned the following lines concerning it: I've been reading in the papers about a wedding there is to be. How the papers got this is what I cannot see. Why should I get married, especially at this age? I am almost through with women. I am through with the stage. At present I am happy, having lots of fun, I entertain all fair damsels; not any special one. Spring time is the right time, when roses begin to bud. Wedding bells may be ringing, but not for Uncle Dud. So all you have been reading is just a waste of time; For when it comes to marrying, it never crosses my mind. Why should I get married? I'm happy no, and free. There's too much fun, single—no wedding bells for me!!! NEGRO TOWN MAY DISSOLVE CORPORATION HOUSTON, Texas, June 23.—(Preston News Service) A vote has been taken as to whether or not Independence Heights, a suburb of Houston, will dissolve corporation as a municipality. The municipality is entirely controlled by Negroes. Its mayor and all of the other offices are Negroes. At present the city is in the hands of a receiver, but it is thought that its financial condition is such that the charter may now be abolished. Let our classified column rent that vacant room.

IN WASHINGTON nearly everybody reads the TRIBUNE PRICE FIVE CENTS TEMPLE uicide IS CAR ON AD IN ROCK SHOT IN HEAD A certificate of suicidal death was issued by the coroner Tuesday afternoon in the case of Robert J. Bowler, 27 years old, attorney and real estate operator, who resided with his sister, Mrs Nellie B. Chapman, at 1817 Tenth street, northwest, and had offices at Twelfth and U streets, northwest. He was found in his automobile in Broad Branch road, near Bryant street, in Rock Creek Park shortly after 4 o'clock Monday afternoon with a bullet wound in his head. He died from the wound about 8:30 o'clock Tuesday morning at Freedmen's hospital. On the door of the car near his hand was a .38 calibre pistol with the name of the maker filed off, probably for the purpose of preventing identification. His car parked in Broad Branch road attracted the attention of William Merck, steward at the Mu-So-Lit club, who was driving Mrs. Helen Harris through the park. After passing, Merck says he returned to see what the trouble was. Bowler was lying across the front seat, his head having fallen to the right. He shook Bowler to rouse him, Merck states, before he discovered that he was wounded. Notified Hayes Mrs. Harris hastened to No. 3031 Broad Branch road and first telephoned George E. C. Hayes, a close personal friend of Bowler, and then she notified the police. In the meantime, a passing automobilist had gone to notify the park policemen. J. W. Sheedy, park policeman, was the first officer to arrive at the scene. He says that he heard the report of the pistol shot and hurried to the scene. No person was seen near the car when the report was heard, according to the officer. Bowler was rushed to Freedmen's hospital in his car. Merck driving it. Freedmen's hospital doctors, who examined him, pronounced his case hopeless and his death only a matter of time. He lingered through the night, grad- (Continued on page 6) "Y" SEC'Y SAYS WORKERS MUST KEEP ABREAST ATLANTIC CITY, N. J.—Speaking at the corner-stone laying of the new two-hundred-thousand-dollar Y. M. C. A. building here, Channing H. Tobias, national secretary of the Y.M.C.A., urged that the Association include in its program the kind of educational work that will help young men to acquire such efficiency in their jobs that they may be able to hold them against all comers. Said the speaker, "After all due allowance has been made for race prejudice, t. t. many colored men are losing out in jobs that they have held for centuries. Even Atlantic City, the last stronghold of the Negro waiter, is employing fewer Negro waiters than it did ten and fifteen years ago. Waiting is now a science and if Negroes want to hold their own in this line of work they must study the latest methods. You cannot apply wheelbarrow methods in an airplane age and expect to hold your job."

Nevertheless, close ranks will be needed if he is to succeed. He must receive the un- qualified support of every depart- ment of the university. Dr. Johnson as the head of this institution is not nearly so much on trial as the Negro race is, The eyes of the entire world are on Howard to see how the Negro race assumes this responsibility. While he is not the first Negro to head an institution of higher learning, he is the first to head an institution of the size and importance of How- ard University, called the “Cap- stone of Negro Education,” For years various cliques and élans have waged warfare within and from without at this institu- tion. Departments have fought de- partments; professors have fought professors; graduates have fought the adminstration and the admini- stration has fought the alumni, With so many years of open and closed warfare over various poli- cies; appointments, ete., naturally these warring groups have become well organized. Their disband- ment in all cases will not be volun- tary. The more sinister ones will have to be forced, out or broken up if Dr. Johnson is to have a free and unhampered hand in restoring Howard University to. its rightful place of prestige and eminence. The demolishing of these cliques is not the duty of President John- son alone. It is more the duty of the alumni and race than his. If he succeeds, the Negro race succeeds; and if he fails, the Negro Tace cannot escape the blame, Al- ready, encouraged by Howard's successful fight for a Negro’ head, Fisk, Shaw and other schools also are looking forward to the time When they can be successful in getting Negro heads. His success will greatly encourage and streng- then them while his failure will set the race back fifty years in this regard. So it is the solemn duty of every friend and every alumnus, as well as eyery race-loving Negro, to see to it that dissension ‘and strife cease and that the ranks at the university’are closed. ‘This does ‘not mean that “Dr. Johnson's policies -are not to be analyzed and suggestions offered. Dr. Johnson himself has wisely in- dicated that this is what he wants. He stated that his door is open at all times for any group or individ- ual who desires to offer a sugges- tion or make constructive criticism. No one, with the best interest of the university at heart, will seek any other means of presenting his views, at least until after Dr. John- son’s invitation has been complied with. The race is interested first in Howard University’s success. 11 Dr. Johnson has a plan and a pro gram that he thinks will achieve this end, then he must be giver wholehearted support until he ha: had a fair trial. To handicap hin with dissension or to foster trou ble-making cliques in his ranks wil be most unfortunate and’ unfair. Dr. Johnson's first year at th university has more than justifie« the action of the trustees in ap pointing him. Quiet, unassumin, | and sincere, he has gone about his | work with a zeal and interest tha | speaks well for the future of th university. However, many prob lems must be worked out if th goal of success is to be achieved In effecting these changes and in novations, some experimentin must be done and some mistake will very probably be made. It i + during these hours of anxiety tha he will need the full support an advice of the well-wishers of th university and the friends of Ne gro progress. Close ranks must be a reality i a real step toward racial progres is to be made. The community is still strug- gling with the question of taxa- tion. The facts to date are about as follows: There has been an in- crease of twenty per cent in the assessment valuation of real prop- erty in the District of Columbia The present rate of taxation or real property is $1.80 per hundred ‘The Citizens Advisory Council has recommended that said rate remair unchanged. The general body of taxpayers believe that there should be a re- duction in the rate of taxation cor- responding to the increased as- sessed valuation, so that the al- ready over-burdened taxpayer will not be required to pay tax in ex- cess of what he or, she is now pay- ing. The Board of Trade recommends a rate of $1.65 per hundred. On the increased assessed valuation this means that the tax payer will carry a larger burden than he is now carrying, but not so large:a burden as would be carried, if the rate of the Citizens Advisory Council is adopted. The Board of Trade is, therefore, more. nearly representative of public opinion on this question than the Council. As a matter of fact the general government is not appropriating enough money to, cover the stake it has in Washington as the na- tion's. capital. .It is contributing $9,000,000 to the expenses of gov- ernment ‘in the District of Colum- bia. Its immediate interests far exceed that figure. It would. not be far out of the way, if the gen- eral government’ paid 40 per cent of the budget. The householders and ‘tenants should show more interest in this question of taxation. Taxes in one way or another take money out of the pockets of all citizens. THE RIP SAW eet one ee ee the other Foot. ; ‘The- Washington Evening . Star in an editorial under the caption “Light “Penalty for Police Bru- tality” last Saturday, laments the light penalty meted out to two! policemen for beating up an Italian in the ‘precinct’ station house. The police trial board after hearing the evidence, fined the officer. who ad- ministered the beating $25 and the ‘one who looked: on $20, : ‘If the reporters of the Evening Star were more alert and the edi- torial, writers more humane, the a- bove captioned editorial would have appeared many, many months ago. ‘The unfortunate Italian was lucky in as much as he had a legation to whom he could appeal in his quest for redress, These. policemen, so used to beating up Negroes, simply overlooked that fact, so now they will have to pay the fine. _ With the aS trial board con- stituted as it is, (of captains and officers of the police department) what mote can one expect? Some of its members are men of fine character but, unfortunately, they have spent too many years in the police department. Their consci- ences have become warped, so far as justice to a prisoner is con- cerned, To them, as to others in the department, every person arrested is’ guilty, therefore, they have no rights that are to be re- spected. These veterans know that brutal ity is the common method of in- stilling fear into a person arrested Suspects are always given a dos of “brutality” in order that th confession may come more easily With the bars let down to on form of brutality, it has rapidl; spread until now, in certain. pre cinets of this city, certain prisoner: | are beaten up as.a preliminary t placing them in cells. | The trial board knows that i a severe punishment is meted ou to a policeman for his brutality ‘on one person, that it will discou |rage him in its use on another and that is what the departmen does not want. Therefore, to ge it in one place, it must tolerate i ‘in another. So we have the con | tinued promiscuous beating up o *| persons arrested. *| Naturally the gréatest sufferer ‘| of this brutality are Negroes.

Main 9411 ‘The Evening Star’s reporter and ‘editorial writer however, must have been on their vacation when this incident occurred because not a line was carried about it. The victims were Negroes. In the latest case, the victim: is white. There's the difference. ‘The emergency room record at Freedmen’s Hospital will show numerous cases of Negroes being brought there in the patrol wagon and being treated for wounds, which in actuality, were inflicted by the officers after the prisoners had been arrested. Not all of these beatings occur in station houses. In many of the cases, prisoners are beaten from the instant the ar- rest is “made in the streets and it is continued in the patrol wagon and finished in the cell. As these victims are mostly colored the incidents seldom get to the precinct captain and rarely Fass him. If a person should try to get redress he will find that the police court and’ the police trial board are inclined to distort the facts in favor of the policeman, ‘The present disfavor in which policemen and other officers of the law are now held by a majority of the public, is fully justified by such treatment ‘as we now get from those in authority.

THE OLD MAN AND THE FUNNY LOOKING BIRD In a little village on the edge of a rocky cliff there stood a pecutiar looking house. About this house grew many large oak trees with very low limbs which made it a pleasant place for tired travellers to rest heneath. ‘One day while an old man sat be- neath the tree he fell asleep and a queer looking little bird flew down and perched on his nose. When:the man awoke there was a crowd of people standing arounu him watch- ing this strange sight. ‘The place looked so peaceful that the bird thought that there could be no danger to take liberties there. The oll man pretended to the people that he had charmed the bird. They gazed on in wonder and then went on their way thinking that the old man was a Wizard. LORENZ MILLS (9) EDITH IS WELL AGAIN.

I think enough has been said this short talk to you, that we give you a clear idea of the fa- profession as any other on the face of the globe, and more so the many. It is a growing profession and no one is capable of predi- ing its future possibilities. Those who have the courage to ent this profession now, will, with the next eight or ten years has the sincere pleasure of congrat- lating themselves. This may be too prophetic, be indications do point in the dire- tion, that is, the time will con- It is therefore of primary importance that you select a profession or calling which has little or no competition, so that there will be no limitation to your success, helpfulness, progress and happiness. At this point may I ask—What is your ambition? What career do you contemplate? If you contemplate a professional career, and your choice is to become a Physician, I would suggest that you enter the Osteopathic Profession. Do you say—Why Osteopathy, instead of Medicine? I answer: 1. Because the field of Osteopathy has no competition. From the fact that Osteopathy is just becoming known to the Colored people, and that among the eight Colleges of Osteopathy in this country, the District of Columbia College of Osteopathy is the only one for Colored. 2. Because of the small outlay of money and time required to acquire the profession as compared with that of the older schools of healing. 3. Because the same subjects are taught, except Materia Medica, Medical Zoology, Pharmacology and Drug Therapy. Instead—the Principles of Osteopathy, Osteopathic Technique, and Osteopathic Therapeutics. 4. Because Osteopathy is a Natural and Physical System of healing, which has been, and can be, depended upon in the treatment of all ailments to which mankind is subject. 5. Because Osteopathy, besides its own peculiar Principles, Diagnosis, Technique and Treatment, includes all other Natural and Physical methods which may be of help in relieving the sick. 6. Because the income afforded by the practice of Osteopathy is perfectly satisfactory and assured at all times. Do I hear you say that you have asked your family Physician about Osteopathy but he discourages you by some such answer as the following: "Oh, there is no good in any of those so-called drugless healing systems. If there were, I would know." Answers like these—as I know have been given—do not clarify the mind of the inquirer, hence he is left in doubt as to what Osteopathy is. The better way would be to inquire of one who has studied Osteopathy and practices Osteopathy, and upon his information make your conclusion. It may be said that Osteopathy is not popular. Indeed it is not popular among the colored people. It will, however, become popular among them when Colored Osteopathic Physicians become located in every city, town and district alongside of Physicians of the older school, and giving the same service or perhaps a little better. On the other hand, Osteopathy is decidedly popular, because the Laws of every State recognize Osteopathy as a profession. Osteopathic Practitioners must be examined and licensed by the same State Board by which Medical Practitioners are examined and licensed. In the State of New York, Dr. Charles Hazzard, an Osteopathic Physician, has been repeatedly, for a number of years, nominated by the Governor as a member of the State Board of Medical Examiners. His duty is to examine all applicants for license—Medical and Osteopathic—in the Subject of Physiology. In some cities and towns Osteopathic Physicians are Health Officers, and in some places Railroad surgeons. In all States where there are composite Boards of Examiners, one or two Osteopathic Physicians are members thereof. In twenty-eight States there are Independent Examining Boards composed of four Osteopathic Physicians. In the District of Columbia there is a Bill to create a Composite Board now pending, which will become law at the next session of Congress. This shows that Osteopathic is really popular but not among the Colored people. There are still other signs of the popularity of Ostepathy. The Medical profession now admits that the minds of the public is gradually turning away from the taking of much drugs, and that a large number of folks are gradually drifting toward the drugless practitioners. This statement is verified by the fact that a very large number of Medical Physicians have turned their attention to what is termed "Physio-Therapy," which they now employ in their practice. "Physio-Therapy" might be said to consist principally of Electro-Therapeutic Lamps, Electro-Thermal Baths, Electro-Vibrators, Massage, Passive Movements, Exercise and Diet. The doctors employ these agencies because of the good results to be got from them in certain conditions. The Osteopathic Profession has been using these agents for many years and the public knows it. In one of the Clinical rooms of the District of Columbia College of Osteopathy we have been using for nearly seven years, a large Burdick Radio-Vitant Electric Cabinet with 38 Therapeutic Carbon Lamps, and also one of Paul Johnson's first make of large Therapeutic Lamps, and other small therapeutic tic appliances. These are not Ostieopathy. They are used only in cases where they are indicated. I think enough has been said in this short talk to you, that will give you a clear idea of the fact that Ostieopathy is as worthy a profession as any other on the face of the globe, and more so than many. It is a growing profession, and no one is capable of predicting its future possibilities. Those who have the courage to enter this profession now, will, within the next eight or ten years have the sincere pleasure of congratulating themselves. This may be too prophetic, but indications do point in the direction, that is, the time will come when the science of healing the whatever new methods may be sick will be entirely druggel. And evolved, Ostieopathy will be holding its own—solidly. You have an opportunity now of studying Osteopathy, which may never be yours again. We therefore urge that if your ambition is to become a Physician, shut your ears to gossips, and have the pluck and courage to step out of the old beaten path and take up the study of Osteopathy. Pioneers are not created, they are cultivated. Pioneers are never to be found among the ranks of those who are always listening for public opinion, nor among those who have to depend on their friends to decide their course of action. They are found among the Lindbergh class, who have minds of their own and have the courage to use them even in the face of adverse criticisms. Colonel Lindbergh is a PIONEER of the highest type of modern times. His decision to fly alone across the Atlantic was criticised. Some regarded it as unpopular, others thought it exceedingly unwise, but the Colonel had a mind of his own. He also had the courage, pluck and the gumption backed by knowledge and confidence in his own ability. And so he sped out alone and leaped through thirty-six hundred miles of untravelled space and landed in the lap of Fame and Fortune forever. Be a Lindbergh. Leap out of the old over-crowded, trodden professional paths, and take up the study of Osteopathy, and become a pioneer Colored Osteopathic Physician in your State, town or district. The District of Columbia College of Osteopathy is fully equipped to give you the necessary education that will fit you for your professional duties, and also to meet the necessary requirements.

It has been freely rumored around Washington that certain student nurses have been permitted to graduate whose scholastic records were incomplete or with certain charges of inefficiency against them.

Person's (of 1125 4th street, northwest) article in the Tribune, Friday, June 17, 1927. I would like to ask Mr. Person a few questions through your paper. How many married women in the schools are becoming mothers? How many are remaining home to rear their children? What's the difference between a parent leaving home in the morning and the married teacher, a mother, in the morning, leaving home putting her child in the care of somebody else for six or seven hours a day while she is in the school room? The children are reared by their great grandmothers or grand- mothers or some old sunny. This married teacher situation is an economic problem and not an efficiency one. We must meet this issue with facts. I read Mr. Person's article with much interest but I fail to see where he has given facts to sustain his article. EDMOND W. SCOTT. 1447 S street, northwest.

MADAME HARRISON-ASTOR INDIVIDUALIZED service means that every electric customer pays only for what he uses and bears no part of the expense involved in supplying service to others! To maintain service in readiness for every customer who desires it equipment must be maintained—at the plant, on the lines and to the customer—to supply service instantly without a moment's notice. Any electric plant must be larger than the largest demand made upon it at any one time. Hence it is necessary that a "minimum charge" be made when service is connected but not used or not enough is used to bear the cost of supplying service. If your monthly bill shows a "minimum charge" because of restricted use of electricity—get the benefit of this by adding any of the many useful appliances to your home's equipment.

WALKER'S BUILDING TO BE MONUMENT INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., June18. Building operations have actually begun now on the Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company's new plant in this city. To know the Madam C. J. Walker Company is to know that it does nothing on a small scale, and the erection of this building is no exception. The new Madam C. J. Walker building according to company officials is to be a monument of rare beauty and great significance. Its composite beauty will be evidenced throughout the five separate projects it is to have—factory, theatre, offices, stores, and auditorium. Four stories high, with basement, of reinforced concrete and steel construction, this new link in the long chain of Walker holdings in real estate, will represent one of the most elaborate and utilitarian structures owned and occupied by our group anywhere in the world. Factory The factory will occupy parts of each floor and basement of the building, a complete factory unit being built in a manner to be homogeneous to the entire structure. Fresh air and sunlight in the greatest possible amount, elevators, sanitary drinking fountains, rest rooms, lockers, etc. have been provided for, all of which will afford most modern sanitary and comfortable working surroundings. --- Offices The second, third and fourth floors will be given over to the offices of the Walker Company and a small group of professional men. The floors here will be of terrazo, the ceilings in marquise style, and birch trim will be used throughout. The corridors in this part of the building will have terrazo floors and base, and will be trimmed in birch. Storerooms On the ground floor along the Indiana Avenue side a group of five well arranged shops will be available for a drug store, sweet shop, barber shop, shop and the Madam C. J. Walker College of Beauty Culture. These shops will have built-in facilities for installing all modern appliances. The Madam C. P. Walker Beauty College will be provided with adequate class rooms, lecture rooms, and demonstration booths Auditorium A spacious auditorium will occu py a part of the fourth floor on the West Street side of the building. This will be equipped with disappearing athletic equipment, thus affording an individual recreation center for employees of the Walker Company; it will have a stage, scenery, curtains, etc., for amateur theatricals, suspended ornamental ceiling maple floor and birch trim. Theatre The theatre promises to be one of the prettiest in the country. It will seat 1500 persons. Its lobby will be done in Ashlar Travertine and Fossil marble with a ticket booth in black Bulgain marble and Spanish tile. The woodwork throughout the theatre will be of first-grade cypress. An ornamental marquise ceiling, festooned with lights, will be a feature. The floor is to be of red, smooth rubbed cement with black rubber aisle treads. The radiators will be recessed, shielded and faced with an ornamental iron grill. Iced drinking water will circulate to the drinking fountains which will be placed strategically throughout the building. Those like other plumbing fixtures through will be of white china. A complete automatic sprinkler system over the entire building will protect it against fire, but in case fire occurs, it may be further fought with folded fire hose and reels which will be installed in cabinets over the building.

PEOPLES DRUG STORES "ALL OVER TOWN" THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, JUNE 24, 1927 Another political victory for Robert R. Church, political leader of Memphis, Tenn., was recorded Monday when G. Tom Taylor was appointed acting postmaster at Memphis, succeeding Sol Seches, the present postmaster. As a result of the effort of Mr. Church, the Civil Service Commission placed the name of Mr. Taylor on the eligible list last Saturday. The commission had previously certified to the Post Office department the names of Mr. Seches and Clint McKellar, assistant postmaster who is a brother of Senator Kenneth D. McKellar, Democrat, of Tennessee. The fight over the postmastership at Memphis has been waged ever since the Republicans were returned to power in 1920 and Charles Metcalf resigned. Commission Reyoked The first candidate of Mr. Church was the late Steve Wright. Mr. Church at that time succeeded in having the commission of the late Charles B. Quinn as acting postmaster at Memphis revoked the next day after it was issued. Quinn received his commission April 22, 1921, and left Washington immediately for Memphis. The next day his commission was revoked, a telegram to that effect reaching him at Chattanooga Tenn. Post Office Department officials say that is the only instance since the establishment of the department that a commission has been revoked before it reached its destination. Mr. Sches finally received the appointment, Wright losing out and Mr. Church took up the fight in behalf of G. Tom Taylor, who belonged to the Brownlee factor of the Republican party in Tennessee. National Committeemar J. Will Taylor was opposed to him Mr. Church reconciled their differences. Cleveland Convention G. Tom Taylor is a former postmaster of Union City, Tenn. He served as state treasurer of Tennessee under former Governor Ben Hooper. He and Wayman Wilkerson represented the tenth congressional district as delegates at the last Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio. SUCCESS HEALTH HAPPINESS ALL WORK TOGETHER.

Negroes appear always willing to help others work out their pet reforms but these same folks are seldom willing to aid us in our struggles for the reforms we most crave. It is true that Washington is one of the most pronounced hell-ridden prejudiced cities of America. Attention should be called to this fact by our leaders and these American evils should be included in the churchman's movement to rid the city of harmful vices. If white preacherst from whom the race has suffered more than from any other source in our American life, want to clean up our city let them begin on the insidious forces which destroy and do the most harm. Blots on the fair name of the capital of the nation should be wiped out. Therefore, clean out the segregation and racial prejudiced monsters, sweep out discriminating rules from Senate Restaurants, theatres and public government, places, rid the District of ridiculous separate golf courses, drive out injustice and get the con- Mr. Church is also credited with the appointment of two federal judges in Tennessee, the late Judge J Will Ross and the present United States judge for the western district, Harry B.

I know how men neglect them and even pity them because of their hair—You see I used to have short hair myself." "My hair was once the greatest sorrow of my life. It kept me from being popular; it kept me from being happy—nothing seemed to do any good—then I tried Hi-Ja. My hair started to grow like magic—almost two inches a month for a while. Soon it was so long, soft and silky that it reached my shoulders and was easy to comb. Men began to pay attention to me and to seek my company. Popularity and good times were mine at last. What a difference, and oh! how happy I am. I wish every short haired girl to know of my experience and try Hi-Ja."

Let us remember that the Eighteenth Amendment is not the only clause of our constitution violated and that men boast in the face of franchise enactments, and even though the Supreme Court may decide against their studied discriminatory tactics, yet there will be found a way to deprive us of our rights to vote and our right to a part in choosing our representatives. These are the reforms our group would like to enlist the help of the Christian citizenry in to make. Will they help us? Remember the Bloomingdale segregation scandal of a few years back, and do not forget that a white pastor of a Baptist church was reported to our group as being in sympathy with the then dangerous segregation malady. I know he was seen at the White House with a delegation of citizens from that section where a similar body of colored people visited the President to protest against the bulldozing methods applied to drive Negro purchasers of property from their homes. Our race must not only fight speak-easies which are scarce among us, but must join with the citizens of the Republic in giving force and compelling obedience to our fundamental laws.

THE REFLECTOR We are-already in receipt of several letters which sanction our move- ment attempting to organize the sports writers of thé East into an association. Garland Mackey, well known scribe attached to the Baltimore ‘Herald-Commonwealth was among the first to respond to the Tribune’s suggestion for such an organization. Mr. Mackey said in his letter that for sometime he had been advocating just such a union atid that in conference with W. Rollo Wilson of the Pittsburgh Couriet he had learned that that worthy gentleman was also much in favor of it. Such favor from men of Mr, Mackey’s and Mr. Wilson's type gives a sound basis for the belief that the Washington Tribune is—as might be termed—“on the right track.” Mr. Mackey suggests in his letter that the proposed ae be’ broad- ‘ened so as to be national instead of merely sectional. “Why not make the organization: national in scope?” Mr. Mackey asks. ‘There can be no objection, so far as this writer can see, for a nation- wide organization of this kind, My belief, however, was that the west- ern papers would form an independent organization, and that the two could then exchange with one another. When more mature minds than mine, such as Mr. Mackey’s, suggest that the sports writers as- sociation be national rather than sectional, I am willing, immediately, to admit that my previous ides was too limited. Every sports writer in the country is, not only invited, but is urged to make known his views on the proposition, : ‘A conference among all of the sports writers could be arranged, at which the various views could be discussed. This confab could take place sometime early next month in some city of central location, most conveniently accessible to all of the papers. By William C.

DUDLEY LOOKS OVER MOVING PICTURE PLANT I have just returned from Phil- adelphia, where I had a conference with the heads of the Colored Play- ers’ Picture Corporation. This firm has made the best Negro pictures I have ever seen. I also saw them screen their last two releases. I went over the studio, saw their entire equipment and after a long conversation I asked them if — were in for, or agreed that, a mil- lion dollar corporation to produce bigger and better colored pictures is what we needed. They agreed that such was needed. I then asked them if they would join me and help put it over. To this they agreed. I then asked them if we were successful in starting such a proposition how many of the members of the pres- ent firm would look for a position or want a salary. Mr. Starkman, president and feneral | manager, sharply said, “We would ask you to accept the presidency and would leave that entirely up to you. All I would ask,” he added, “is that you work hard to make money for the stockholders, and I will give you the benefit of all the experi- ‘ence I have had with colored pic- tures.” “Well that is worth lots,” I re- plied. I do honestly believe that Mr. Starkman is sincere. I find him to be an honest, upright and good business man. We would really need just such a man as he is. It will save thousands of dol- lars, mat only by taking over the jipment the acquisition of Me. Starkman with his know!- edge of the production of pictures, he could save in the cost of pro- duction.

As an Americano McCoy is despised by the Californians, save one sen- orita who would have despised him had she been able to do so.

LAY RN IDE ITE MATINEE I J Street at 12th | By “Mac” tat 7 ‘The chorus fs pretty good (yes pretty nd good). The girls seem to be at’home on the stage, and that counts for a large percen-. tage of their ‘worth, “And ‘some of them were able to step right out of the chorus and take leading aig As for who in the show is from Washington, this time we start from the manager and work down. G. H. Tucker, the manager, is a Washingtonian. Then we’ have twd of the chorus girls, Louise Williams and Mary Welch, both of whom were formerly with Irving Miller’s “Gay Harlem” show. The latter of the two, however, is now on the sick list, and has not been able to appear before her home town fans, Incidentally, De Ducts are still getting the money. At the Lincoln Theatre this week, Lomax, with his voice su- perb,’ and McAllister, with his trained feet, are entertaining the crowds. And. must I say that they do the job well? Lomax sings his favorite songs, “Roses of Picardy,” and “O Sole Mio” (in Italian). I remarked “when he sang the same song at the Howard last week, that it all sounded like Greck to me, yet I appreciate’ the music. It is yet true, for I haven't stud- ied either Italian or Greek in the last week, and I still do not know what Lomax said in the song. But the way he said it was marveldus. McAllister is’ just a natural- born dancer, He can do more with his feet than “a monkey can do ‘with peanuts.”. There’s no doubt about his being good. — Al- though, I like singing better than T do dancing. (I do neither with the least bit of proficiency), the audience at the Lincoln seemed just the opposite. They applauded the act of McAllister longer and louder, but that does not mean that the applause was not lacking for Lomax. The Republic’s talent shows aro stil entertaining the crowds at 5:30, 7:30 and 9:30. There doesn't seem to be a great deal of differ- ence between the show from one week to another. Consequently, there isn't much T can find to say about them. J can, however. as- sure the readers of this column that they will be entertained by the performance each Saturday night. 4 Manager Byars of Broadway ts presenting Jimmie Johnson in song all next week, Jimmie is good, very good, | Join the Tribune Postal Card Club ‘The Tribune Postal Card Club gan be joined by any child who is interested in Race advancement, Write your name, address, age, and parents? or guardians’ names on a pontal and send it to the Kiddies’ Corner, Washington Tribune, (Continued) Rinaldo Carter, John William Clark, Wendell Harrison Cooper, Perry Henry Davidson, Levi Nath- aniel Galloway, Edward» Henry Gerald, Walter Carey Enfield Gra- dy, William Rudolph Grimes.
