SEAMEN SEEK BLACK STAR LINE FUNDS SEAMEN SEEK BLACK STAR LINE FUNDS The ill-fated venture of Marcus Garvey, which ended in his being sent to the federal penitentiary in Atlanta and his deportation to the British West Indies with the commutation of his five-year sentence, was recalled when Senator Robert F. Wagner, Democrat, of New York, introduced in the Senate last Tuesday a bill for the relief of certain seamen who are judgment creditors of the Black Star Line, incorporated, for wages earned. The Black Star Line in 1923 deposited with the United States Shipping Board the sum of $21,624.66 toward the purchase of a ship. The Black Star Line defaulted. The United States Shipping Board deposited this money to the credit of the Black Star Line with the Treasurer of the United States. The bill of Senator Wagner would appropriate such portion of this sum of $21,624.66 as may be necessary to pay the judgments of certain seamen who are duly legal judgment creditors of the Black Star Line. Two Judgments There are two judgments for wages against the Black Star Line. One is in the case of John O. Garrett. It is for $5,814.78. It was obtained in the Supreme Court of New York, January 28, 1925. The other judgment is in the case of Albert A. Zink and others. It is for $12,303.33. It was obtained in (Continued on page 8).

Washington Tribune PROMINE PUBLISHED WEEKLY THE NENT LOO Mrs. Smith's extensive popularity was gained partly through her affiliation with the Madeline Beauty Parlor, which she founded in the year of 1915. Throughout her career, Mrs. Smith greeted her associates with a smile. It is said that it was this jovial manner that won for her the monicker "Babe" by which she was affectionately addressed and so extensively referred to. ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` Read the advertisements in this paper, they offer many good bargains. DR. BALLOU SAYS HE WAS MISQUOTED Daily newspapers misquoted statements from his address at the City Club Forum on January 5, Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent of public schools, declared Wednesday. He made no statement whatever concerning the "necessity for a dual school system for white and colored pupils," he said. He did discuss the dual school system as an actual fact, necessitating a dual administrative and supervisory staff, he stated. Dr. Ballou also declared that he did not say that "the shifting from white to colored population in certain sections of the city is another factor that impedes the efficiency of the local school system." In his address, Dr. Ballou stated, he said: "Shifting from white to colored population frequently results in one group of schools being over congested and the other group being on the decline, and that condition results in inefficient organization of classes."

PROMINENT LOCAL MUSICIAN IS DEAD The local music world lost one of its most outstanding characters with the death of Daniel R. Doy, 2110 Ward place, northwest, Tuesday. Doy was 22 years old, but a most exceptional musician. Following his graduation in June, 1922, from the Dumbar High School, he spent several years of playing in this city. In September, 1925, Doy went to Europe with the troupe of Will Marion Cook. He played in the leading cities of Europe spending 13 months abroad. He was with Claude Hopkins' Orchestra when it toured Paris, Brussels, Berlin, and Venice as well as numerous other large places. Returning to this city October, 1926, Doy joined the Howard Theatre Orchestra. He played there for several months and then went to the Lincoln Theatre, where he succeeded Miss Gertie Wells as organist and pianist. Though Doy was originally a trombone artist he played the piano and organ with equal versatility. In June, 1927, when the Royal Theatre, in Baltimore was taken over by the Lichtman firm, Doy was dispatched as head musician to that house. Doy took sick in September and returned home. Since that time he has been complaining. Until last Sunday however, Doy was never really confined. He is survived by Bessie Mallory Dog, his wife, Yvonne, his 19-month-old daughter, and his father and mother Mr. and Mrs. Reuben A. Doy. Funeral services will be held Sunday at 1 o'clock from the Mt.

Simms when upon awakening early Monday morning she realized that her foot was resting on a portion of the cold body of her husband, Rev. Isadore W. Simms. He had died while he slept. Rev. Simms had been sick at his home, 2011 Eleventh street, northwest, for nearly six months prior to December 12. On that day he felt enough improved to return to his work at the Navy Yard. Friday, January 6, a little over three weeks after his return to work, Rev. Simms was brought home in the automobile of a fellow workman. While he was complaining, Rev. Simms did not deem it necessary to confine himself to bed. Saturday and Sunday morning he was up and about. About 5:30 o'clock Sunday evening, Rev. Simms suffered a second relapse and was put to bed. His wife attended him and then herself retired. Mrs. Simms awoke about 3:35 a.m. Monday and found her husband dead. Rev. Simms was born July 10, 1892, in Atlanta, Ga.

Dixon, of Jersey City, N. J., his boyhood chum. Mr. Murray died at his home at 3:30 Saturday morning, January 7. He had been ill since Christmas day. He was confined to his bed only for three days. Kidney trouble was the cause of his death. He was born in Alexandria, Va., August 10, 1888. He was educated in the public schools of his native city and the District of Columbia and in Howard University. Early in his youth he became interested in printing and became a master of the trade.

He was also a director of the Washington Tribune and of the Dunbar Theatrical company. He owned a cottage at Highland Beach, Md., where he spent the week-ends in the summer with his family. Since 1923 he had served on the board of commissioners of the summer colony. Recently he was elected the chairman of the board of commissioners and the mayor of the town. He has also served as vice-president of the Mu-So-Lit Club and as a member of the board of managers of the Twelfth Street branch of the Young Men's Christian Association. He moved here about twenty years ago, after the Murray Brothers had removed their printing business from their home town to Washington. During his illness he showed the courage, fortitude and will power that had characterized his life. Medical aid, however, proved impotent. His Survivers Surviving him are his wife, Mrs Ethel B. Murray; a son, Freeman M.; a daughter, Norma; his father and mother, F. H. M. Murray and Mrs. Delilah Murray of Alexandria, Va.; his grandmother, Mrs Catherine Harris; three brothers, Raymond H., F.

Call Potomac 1657. 1928 AMEND EVENT RACES Senator Cole Blease, Democrat of South Carolina, is not satisfied with his bill to prohibit the intermarriage of white and colored persons. He would amend the Constitution of the United States to carry into effect the purpose of his bill. On last Thursday he proposed in the Senate a joint resolution to amend the Constitution. His amendment, which would be known as Article 20, is as follows: "The marriage of a white person with a Negro or mulatto shall be unlawful and void. Congress shall provide by law for the punishment of parties attempting to contract such marriage, and for the punishment of the officer of the law, or minister or any other person qualified to perform the marriage ceremony, who shall attempt to or perform such ceremony." Passage of this constitutional amendment will require a two-thirds vote of the Senate and House and ratification by three-fourths of the state legislatures. This joint resolution was referred to the judiciary committee. RAND'LPHBARRED IN JACKSONVILLE BY TOWN MAYOR RAND'LPHBARRED IN JACKSONVILLE BY TOWN MAYOR NEW YORK, N.

HOME OF EX-CAPT GIBSON OF FIRE DEPT., LOOTED IN WASHINGTON nearly everybody reads the TRIBUNE PRICE FIVE CENTS Police are seeking the smeek thief who on Wednesday night entered the home of retired fire captain L. U. Gibson, 4901 Blaine street, northeast, and made away with jewelry and money valued at nearly $100. Gaining entrance to the house by pass key, the intruder ransacked six of the seven rooms, being rewarded, however, with loot from only one of them. Two gold watches worth something over $80, a flashlight and a one dollar bill was taken from the top drawer of Captain Gibson's bureau. Sixty-one dollars and forty cents and a solid gold watch, a heritage from Civil War times belonging to the ex-firefighter was overlooked by the burglar. The money and timepiece were in a cigar box in the bottom drawer of the same piece of furniture from which the other losses were suffered. The robbery occurred between 6 and 8 o'clock while Captain Gibson was on duty as doorman at the Lincoln Theatre and while Mrs. Gibson was visiting a friend in the neighborhood. Their son, Elbert Gibson, a student at Howard University, was away from home. It was on her return home that Mrs. Gibson learned of the burglary. She could see by the disarrangement of things that someone had been in the home during her absence. Not having experienced any personal loss, however, she did not know that anything had been taken from her husband's belongings. Upon his arrival home shortly before midnight, Captain Gibson discovered his loss. He with his son, Elbert, who arrived at the house a few minutes after he did not immediately to the eleventh police precinct and reported the robbery. They were promised the fullest co-operation in the attempt to apprehend the criminal. The Blaine street address is the new home of the Gibson family.

Their former home was at 2025 Thirteenth street northwest.

ANDER Sunday, Jan Odd Fellows' Home Seats FREE Tune in on Station WRHF, Auspices of the International Tune in on Station WRHF, Sunday, from 5:30 to 6 P.M. Auspies of the International Bible Students' Association WEEKLY SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON By Charles P. Harris Scripture Basis: Mark 2:3-12,15-17 Golden Text: "I came not to call the righteous, but sinners." Mark 2:17. The Thought of the Lesson Today's lesson presents Christ as not only one who cured the sick but also as one who mingled with sinners. This was not the only time that Christ was found in the midst of sinners, for the Gospel tells us that he spent much of his earthly time among them. But he went among them not to be like them, but to make them like Him. He was among sinners like a physician among the sick—going among them not to catch their diseases but to cure them. Sin is the dreadful disease with which the sinner suffers. Christ, having "power on earth to forgive sins," is the great physician of the soul. He, like any wise physician, found it necessary to spend much of His time not among the well, but among the sick, the sin-sick—his patients. He thus became the friend of sinners and was true to his declaration that, "I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." CONDUCT JOINT REVIVAL Joint revival meetings are being conducted at the Mt. Bethel Baptist Church, Second and V streets, northwest, and the Mt.

Weak Back Strengthened Quickly If it hurts your back to lift a heavy object, if you have strained the back muscles, if a "cold has settled in your back," or if you suffer from lumbago, put on a Red Cross Kidney Plaster and you will get relief almost at once. It gives the support needed by the weakened, sore muscles. It provides a continuous automatic massage with every movement of the body, thus relieving congestion and stimulating circulation in the affected tissues. The medication is absorbed through the skin and goes directly to the weak, sore, lame muscles, quieting the pain, relieving the irritated nerves, and restoring the free use of the muscles. Be sure to ask for Johnson's Red Cross Kidney Plaster with the red flannel back. At all drug stores. THE QUEEN STUDIO THE QUEEN STUDIO Dancing of all kinds taught children and adults.

Recognizing its value, both from observation and wide reading, I have equipped my office to render special service in this branch of the healing art. I have a treatment room containing many private booths where the therapeutic light, infra-red, diathermy, autocondensation, galvanism and the sinusoidal currents may be applied. The surgical application of diathermy, as in the removal of tonsils, is given in the main office. Many diseases are benefited by electro-therapy. Mention of a few will suffice. Rickets, under-nourishment, tuberculosis, skin diseases, etc., are improved by ultraviolet. Sprains, painful back, rheumatism, inflammations, bronchitis, sinusitis, pneumonia, etc., by infrared and diathermy. Male and female disease by diathermy and galvanism. In many hospitals these treatments have decreased the number of cases requiring operation. I shall be glad to consult with any sufferer of acute or chronic disease who may desire to take treatments.

H. B. Warner appears as Stephen Sorrell, and Mickey McBan and Nils Asther enact, respectively, the child Kit and the matured Kit Sorrell. The notable cast includes Anna Q. Nilsson as Dora Sorrell; Carmel Myers as Florence Palfrey; Norman Trevor as Thomas Roland; Alice Joyce as Fanny Garland; Mary Nolan as Molly Roland and Louis Wolheim as Sergeant Buck. Much of "Sorrell and Son" was filmed in England and with the aid of the author, Warwick Deeping. All of the film, "Sorrell and Son" is faithful to the spirit and letter of Warwick Deeping's book, and the ending of the film is that of the book. Herbert Brenon, who made "Peter Pan" and "Beau Geste" says that "Sorrell and Son" is his best motion picture. A father himself, Mr. Brenon believes the story of "Sorrell and Son" is that of any father and son, and that the appeal of the film as an entertainment is supplemented by its spiritual effect on men and women who view it. On Thursday and Friday, January 19 and 20, the screen attraction will be the "Thirteenth Hour" with Lionel Barrymore playing the leading role supported by Charles Delany, Fred Kelsy, Polly Moran and Napoleon, the German police dog. The "Thirteenth Hour" is a story of one a.m. when the majority of people are asleep and when thieves and murderers roam about. It was at one a.m. when the murder in the story was committed and its psychology is carried throughout the picture to sustain suspense until the end. The "Thirteenth Hour" is one of the most thrilling detective stories ever filmed. 015 - 016 On Saturday only will be shown "Heroes in Blue," featuring John Bowers and Sally Rand. It is a story that is dedicated to the country's bravest men, the policemen, and their struggle to oppress the ever-rampant crime wave. It is a story that is filled with love, pathes and thrills. The Universal circus chapter play, "The Trail of the Tiger," featuring Jack Dougherty and Mower will also be shown. On Saturday evening at 9 o'clock sharp the regular opportunity night will be held at which time the audience will select the three best contestants for the cash prizes that will be given by the management. JOHN GILBERT IN "HONOR FIRST" AT THE REPUBLIC John Gilbert and Renee Adoree, stars of "The Big Parade" appear in another great drama of the war called "Honor First," a super special picture at the Republic Theatre on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday on Wednesday, January 15, 16, 17 10 JOHN GILBERT ... "HONOR FIRST" WILLIAM, FOX ATTRACTION. and 18. Gilbert plays a dual role in "Honor First," that of twin brothers who were soldiers of France, duplicates in the flesh, but strikingly dissimilar in character. One is a straight forward fighting man, first rate and clean, while the other is a cad in every sense. The love of a beautiful woman becomes misplaced in this alluring plot of romance and battle, until the climax is reached with the romantic John Gilbert performing one of the most distinguished roles in his career. On the stage, during the showing of "Honor First," will be Perry, late star of Studies. Miss Perry is Washingtonian and a form of Howard University. During the short time she has been on the stage, she has THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE: FRIDAY, JANUARY 13, 1928 risen to the front rank of performers. She has a voice of much natural ability and is a violinist of note. In addition to her regular act, Miss Perry will say "I'm Falling in Love with You, Diane," the musical theme of the motion picture, "Seventh Heaven." Florence Vidor in her latest Paramount production, "One Woman to Another," will be the feature attraction on Thursday and Friday, Januarq 19 and 20. Theodore Von Eltz is the leading man. "One Woman to Another" is a sophisticated romance of a man who was denied the right to see the woman he loved. Adorable Florence Vidor is superb in this picture. On Saturday, January 21, for that day only, Betty Compson in "Say it with Diamonds," will be shown. On the stage, talent at 5:30, 7:30 and 9:30. Manager Sanford of the Republic announces that the motion picture, "Seventh Heaven," will be shown for the entire week of January 22. DIXIE BREVITIES OF 1928 AT THE HOWARD NEXT WEEK For the week beginning Monday, January 15, the stage attraction at the Howard Theatre will be, "Dixie Brevities of 1922" with a large cast of stella stars headed by Lottie Gee, Edith Spencer, Inez Dennis and that ever-lovable and fascinating Doris Rheubottom whose song numbers have thrilled the audience on numerous other occasions, supported by Galle De Gaston, Montrose Brooks and others. Outside of the cast of stellar stars one of the outstanding attractions of the show is the chorus of ten Dixie beauties. On the screen for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday will be seen the handsome Monte Blue in the "Bush Leaguer," he is supported by Lela Hyams. The background of this melodramatic story is America's national game, baseball. It shows how America's youths are selected from the lowly Bush Leagues for the major league and how some make good while others fail. All around the life on the diamond and away from the club house is woven a delightful love story that will command attention to the very end. On Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, the screen attraction will be "Mountains of Manhattan." This is a story high above the street, 27 stories in the air, the uncompleted apex of a modern skyscraper is the setting of this drama of men with nerve. Unlike most New York photoplays this does not deal with the Broadway night life angle, but deals with the rise both socially and financially of a nervy young iron worker. The hearty interest is supplied by Footlights Footlights By McAlpin With roaring and fighting lions roaming about on the stage, oh, my yes, they had a cage around them, I almost forgot to say that. Aces High soars over to a success at the Howard this week. Frank Delmar is responsible for the conduct of the lions, in other words, they are his lions and he is their trainer. The act is a good one. The show, too, is a good one. Not for a long while has there been a more snappy chorus that has the knack of working in unison as these girls do this week. They pull some of the big-time chorus dancing of the uniform leg exercises, etc., which goes over big with the audience. The stars include Joe Byrd, Ernest Whitman, Henry Crackshot, Susaye Brown, Lena Curry, Emmanuel Weston, Alice Gorgas, and Rice and Howard. They all do creditable work. At the Lincoln Theatre this week the famous Calloway Sisters, direct from Chicago, are entertaining. Though they make very little impression with their singing, they can really dance. The Lincoln surely scored a hit when these two sisters were engaged. I could see them dance several times in succession without every tiring of it. And weren't their costumes beautiful in their brevity? Oh, my, my, my! Doris B. Devore and is supported by a strong cast, George Chesbro, Charles Delany, and Kate Price. On Friday the regular midnight ramble will be held beginning at 12:15 sharp. Direction A. E. Lichtman Rufus G. Byars, Supervisor Phone, North 3000 Lincoln Theatre SPIRIT OF MONTMARTE IN "SEVENTH HEAVEN" The manage of the Republic Theatre has secured the first run in Washington of "Seventh Heaven," Fox Films epic picture version of the play by Austin Strong. This picture has been creating a sensation and playing to capacity houses all over the country and is considered one of the finest productions of the year. The action of the picture is laid in a picturesque corner of the Paris Montmartre district and affords a wide scope for original treatment of background. Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell head the all-star cast in the picture. "Seventh Heaven" will have a showing at the Republic Theatre the entire week of January 22. PERSONALS Ceryle D.

TEAMS The basketball game carded for tonight which will bring together quints of the Baltimore Monumental and Columbia lodges of Elks should attract a large ecrowd. / "Soup" Turner and Dennis Simpson, local products, as well as "Scrapy" Brown who always serves as a drawing card here, will be seen in the role of aliens. Turner is cavorting in a guard position while the latter two are running mates in forward territory. "Slim" Thomas, star of the 1926 and 1927 Community, amateur championship machines and formerly a member of the Baltimore Elks will appear in the line-up of the local Elk quint. A center par excellence, the lanky Thomas may prove the means of a victory for the District aggregation. The game will bring together, as opponents, former teammates. Turner, for 4 years captain of the Alco A. C., from which team the Columbia Elks grew, will face a large number of his old companions. Besides Joe Suter, the present Elk captain and "Dick" Graves, assistant coach, "Soup" will be doing battle against Archie Berry, Van Harris, Tommie Jackson, Willie Hope, Kay Trigg, "Hiemie" Curtis and several others, all of whom he once played with. On the other hand, "Sim" Thomas, until recently one of the invading clan will strive to turn back the Simpson-Turner-S. Brown-Martin-Keller combination we all know so well from their defeat of the Community Yellowjackets, December 12. HAMPTON USES 16 MEN TO DEFEAT N. C. STATE HAMPTON USES 16 MEN TO DEFEAT N. C. STATE By James B. Clarke HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Jan. 7—North Carolina State College of Durham, N. C., and a newly elected member of the C. K. A. A., suffered defeat before the fast, flashy team representing the Blue and White Seasiders by a score of 70 to 21 Saturday evening, January 7, in the Hampton Institute Gymnasium. The size of the score could, however, never tell what a scare the Carolina boys threw into the Seaside Camp when they snatched the lead in the first few minutes. The Seasiders were erratic in those first moments of the game, but it was not long before they had settled down to the cool careful game they are noted for. Hampton sent in sixteen players to garner her nearly four-score points.

C., formerly the Philadelphia Invincibles, here, Wednesday, January 25. With the Quaker Cityans is "Bill" Purnell, the only one-armed basketball player the writer has ever witnessed. Purnell is a wonder. He guards, plays forward or center with equal versatility. On December 27, 1927, the Peerless quint defeated the Yellowjackets 27-14 in Philadelphia. TECH GRADS WIN FROM VARSITY The Armstrong Alumni, led by Oscar Blue, paid their annual visit to the old school Thursday to open the Orange and Blue 1923 basketball season. The Armstrong lads put up a game fight but fell before the older boys by a 22-10 count. The scoring of the younger group was led by Captain Graham and White.

DUNBAR NETTERS HIT WINNING STREAK AGAIN After being severely jolted by Jimmie the Lee's Federals the Dunbar High School basketball quintet has taken a new lease on life and last Friday night conquered the Shaw Junlor High School, 10-14. Captain 'Pickles' Bland's charges were a plenty of trouble to the Dunbar reserves holding them 12-4 in the first three periods but when the regulars took the floor with ten minutes to play the Shaw Junior High team was through. The sting of the Federal victory has dug deep and the Dunbar team is desirous of playing them in their gym in the near future. A CORRECTION Because of a false release received at this office last week a misstatement of fact in regard to the Salisbury Elk-Washington Elk basketball game, appeared in the last edition of this paper. Instead of having lost the game, 21-19, the local quint was on the long end of a 21-13 count. HOWARD TRIMMED ATLANTA, Ga.—Coach Johnny Burr and his Howard Bisones were unable to maintain an early lead in their game with Morehouse here, last Tuesday, and lost 31-27. Captain Louie Coates was the outstanding star for the visiting aggregation. WASHINGTON PIRATES ATTENTION The first get-together of the Washington Pirates Baseball Club will be held Tuesday night, January 17, at 8 o'clock at 917½ Barry place. Old and new members are asked to be present and prompt.

Rough and exciting, the game was chock full of thrills, keeping the spectators on their feet during the latter stages as the lead seesawed back and forth. Though trailing 10-8 at the rest period, the Red and Black lads came back strong with Syphax and Berry leading the scorers. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY, JANUARY 13, 1928 SAMUEL H.

Denied us is the right or power to skip and read before their due. We can go back and review but we cannot go ahead and foresee. Let's turn back. This last is the one thousand nine hundred and twenty-eighth page. At its beginning we have the passing of Norman D. Murray, a gentleman, a sportsman, an athlete. It is for the poets, the sentimentalists to commemorate the first. Let us revive his memory in the latter two. Like all of us he was created as an equal, but like some are not, he was endowed with an interest in athletics. Let's turn back. This chapter found its beginning near the end of the one thousand, eight hundred and eighty-eighth page. Norman D. Murray was born August 10, 1888, the third son of Freeman Henry Morris Murray, father of the well known Murray Brothers. His life began in the Murray homestead at Princess and Alfred streets, Alexandria, Va. On page one thousand nine hundred and three we read of the beginning of his career as an athlete—the light in which we are at present most interested. He started in football and baseball—a member of the old Alexandria Lafayettes. With them he saw more than twenty years of activity, as a player and as a coach. He played football like he lived. In the sport he was a snapper-back. In life he was a center. In the first he passed the ball to start a movement toward his team's goal. In the latter he was the center of a struggle of emulation—to overcome the rival of manhood—failure to become a full man. His position in baseball, too, was a characteristic of the way he strove to live. Norman Murray was a catcher. As such he had the whole game in front of him. He could look upon it as he looked upon the world—as an open book. Seeing it thus, he maneuvered like the man with the power to look on both hands in a game of cards. The cheater he despised, the honest contestant he aided. Toward his team, his duty lay and he battled with an untiring zeal to overcome its rivals for the honors and prestige he desired for his mates. Thus he played—then having played—he began coaching. He served with the Lafayettes as a teacher for those who followed him as active players. Norman Murray taught his charges the way to play, he showed them right from wrong just as in life he taught his children the way to live—the difference between the ethical and unethical. His part as a competitor came to a close on page one thousand nine hundred twenty-three. From that to the last page of his life, Norman Murray's only connection with athletics was as an arbiter. He became a football official and again he exhibited a part to life as a sequel. At times he served as official in games in which his students—those whom he coached—participated, and in every decision he enforced what he believed right—there was no discrimination. And in his unfinished rearing.of his offspring Norman Murray, without fatherly selfishness, reproved when they were wrong and encouraged when they were, in his opinion, right. The chapter is closed. The Book of Life—goes on—to be reviewed, but not to be foretold. We can see its past thickness, but its future volume is a mystery. We know not how much more we shall read. It's length is a question, and until the next page is tendered us we can only guess how many more are held by the Unseen Hand. Another page has been turned.

The victory, the first of the season was scored to the tune of 30-20. The game was well played. During the first half both teams registered eleven points. In the second half, however, the Tech boys came back and showed the younger group the way the game should be played. During this lesson White caged seven field goals and two foul shots making a total of 16 points. Hill of Phelps ran second in the scoring column with four doubledeckers and two free throws. The clever guarding of Captain Jackson and Simms was easily a feature of the contest. REI W E. L. Sanford, Mgr. SUNDAY - The Stars of "THE BIG PARADE" in another great drama of the war!

The Tribune has supported and will continue to support the proposition that $9,000,000 (the present appropriation from the Federal Treasury) is not a sufficient contribution to cover the interests of the National Government in the District of Columbia. The National Government has interests here which in equity and good conscience would warrant a larger contribution. Those who have studied the question in all its bearings are convinced, and they present facts which should convince most reasoning people, that the contribution of the National Government should be larger than it now is. The ratio of 40 to 66 seems to be about the right one. There is much property in the District which is exempt from taxation. The taxpayer pays not only for his own property but also for the exempted property. Much of the appreciation in value of real estate here is due to the activity of the Federal Government in erecting fine and costly buildings for the housing of its agencies. Said government should bear the burden of such appreciation. Washington is not an industrial and commercial center, and probably never will be. It is the nation's capital, and is the pride and glory of the nation, and the nation will not begrudge a contribution of from fourteen to sixteen millions of dollars as its share of the expenditure necessary to maintain a great and dignified capital city. Our own group should manifest a lively interest in this question, both because they are more largely property owners than ever before, and their interest in business activities involves a knowledge of the fundamentals of taxation. A CALL TO REPENTANCE The Federal Council of Churches has named February 12, Abraham Lincoln's birthday, as a day for penitence and prayer with reference to crimes and injustices growing out of the emphasis placed on racial relationships. The recommendation is to the churches, and as the 12th of February comes on Sunday there seems to be no reason why all the churches may not observe the day. It is entirely fit and proper that the churches should lead in this matter of crimes having their origin in insistence upon racial distinctions and discriminations. It is the peculiar and distinctive mission of the church to harmonize and unify men of different races, interests and conceptions. The Federal Council of Churches is discharging a wel- PRUDENTIAL BANK at Washington, in the at the Close of Business Resor Loans and discounts .... Overdrafts, secured .... Overdrafts, unsecured ....

Curtis, Peter W. Price, Directors. Washington Tribune Published Weekly at Washington, D.C., THE WASHINGTON BUNE PUBLISHING COMPANY come function in calling attention to the predominant defect in our national life, which is the undue and vicious emphasis that is placed upon the matter of so-called racial differences. After calling attention to the fact that more than 4,000 people have been lynched in this country; that all are stained by the crime of lynching; that mob rule threatens to engulf the whole country, the call of the Council urges national confession of "our failure to ac. on the bell if that we are all 'of one blood' and have one Father," for "the callous indifference and silence we have shown in the face of monstrous wrong, thereby ourselves becoming guilty in the sight of God and man," and for "our false sense of racial superiority and all the heartless attitudes that accompany it." This is an admirable statement of the case of the need for prayer and pentience. Anything that tends even remotely to affect the minds and hearts of men in the direction of tolerance is deserving of most careful consideration and the most patient trial. A call like this which comes from the Federal Council of Churches does much to free the church of the charge of moral bankruptcy. If the churches generally shall accept this call in the spirit in which it is made, great good may be expected to result. NORMAN D. MURRAY Among all the proffered consolations upon the occasion of the death of one who is near and dear, nene removes the element of loss, the break in the chain of familiar associations, the known reactions in given mutual situations which arise, the familiar step, walk, attitude and habits of coming and going, and the ties of association in good and ill report. That the Grim Reaper should have selected our friend, brother, business associate and almost second self, as the victim of its cold and relentless grasp, I as left with us a loss that can not be replaced. That the work, that knew him should uniformly speak of the late Norman D. Murray as a man; that we know him to have played the part of a man; that he suffered almost in silence, and that he died like a man, are sincere tributes which speak volumes. Few worth while interests escaped his attention during the past twenty-five years, and few local interests escaped his keen criticism or were denied his enthusiastic support once he decided them to be conceived in the light of real race progress.

MURRAY TIES UP LAST PAGE IN BOOK OF LIFE (Continued from page 1) Mr. Murray came from the surviving commissioners of Highland Beach. It was signed by Edwin B. Henderson, Dr. Milton A. Francis, Mrs. Beatrice J. Walker and Haley G. Douglass. It is as follows: Commissioners' Resolution "It is with deep regret and profound sorrow that the commissioners of Highland Beach, Md., take notice of the death of the chairman of the board and mayor of the town. Norman D. Murray. "Mr. Murray served almost continuously since 1923 in some capacity on the board of commissioners. His record was one of which the townspeople are justly proud. He was ever ready to, and did, give of his time, money and energy in sacrificing measure to improve the physical properties and government of the town in order to make a happier, better place in which the people might live. Therefore, resolved: grasp and technical mastery of that most complex of skilled occupations—the "art preservative arts." His intellectual attitude toward the matter involved was as masterful as his handling of the mechanical phases of the matter which he composed in form to impress the world. As a Virginian, he was a family man in the highest sense of the term, and through his children and the impression made upon them by his life and his attitude toward the problems of life, he is assured of that immortality which red-blooded men, unafraid, build from their lives lived actively and in the light of their powers. SEAMEN SEEK BLACK STAR LINE FUNDS (Continued from :page 1) the United States district court for the southern district of New York, December 16, 1921. The United States Shipping Board would be authorized and directed by this bill to pay out of the money to its credit into the registry of the court in which the judgments were rendered, the amount of each judgment together with the costs and interest accrued to the date of payment, for the purpose of satisfying these judgments. A certified copy of each judgment would have to be furnished to the United States Shipping Board before any payment would be made. To Migrate to Africa The Black Star Line is a corporation existing under the laws of Delaware. It had for its purpose the acquisition and management of steamships. These vessels were ultimately intended to transport to Africa men and material to build up a great empire for the colored race. This ship project was only a small part of a large scheme that roused the enthusiasm of Garvey and appealed to the hopes and aspirations of his followers. Garvey was convicted of using the mails to defraud in connection with the sale of worthless stock in the 'Black Star Line at $5 a share. Garvey served two years and nine months of his sentence. He was released for deportation to the West Indies in November. He is now in Jamaica. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JANUARY 13, 1928 "That the Board of Commissioners of Highland Beach extend to his family their sincere condolence." Letters and telegrams of condolence came from different sections of the country. Many beautiful flowers were sent. The employees of the Murray Brothers' Printing Company and the Washington Tribune, dedicated to him the following original poem written by C. Leslie Frazier, one of the employees and a member of the Tribune staff. "Norman" You were a pal, a friend, companion true— And, oh, old boy, if you but only knew How much the gang—your gang—is missing, you You would feel proud. Pal of our hearts, in sorrow do we bow Our heads—and pledge to carry on for you Your work undone. In after days when years have mellowed this Deep grief that now our hearts does rend. We'll look back on the yesterdays and say, "He was our friend." POET'S CORNER (Writers of verse, serious or light, may send to this column their "brain children." If you commune with the poetical muse, send in your verses.) TAKE TIME By R. A. Adams (Preston News Service) Just take a little time. You know The world was not made in a day; That real progress was always slow. slow, And ever it will be that way; If you aspire to something great, Then "learn to labor and to wait." Take just a little time. That hasts In all that you may strive to do Will almost surely end in waste, Is an axiom entirely true; Therefore, in what you would ex cell, cell, Take time enough to do it well! Take time; whatever may betide, Lay your foundation deep, and strong: If you would have your work abide. Build well, e'en tho the time be long; If you would dire misfortune mock. Take time, and build upon a rock! Just take a little time and see How well it pays to persevere. And yet, in toiling, learn to be Patient, till ripened fruits appear; Only this way can we make sure Our work shall through the years endure; LETTERS TO THE EDITOR LETTERS TO THE EDITOR A Word for Norman Editor, Washington Tribune, 920 U St., N.W. Dear Sir: I desire to express my regret and to convey to your staff and the family of the late Norman Murray, my sincere sympathy in his death. The race has lost a most worthy young man, he contributed much to be emulated by his successful rise in the business world. God help us to have more of a like character. Yours respectfully, Jefferson H. Clark 1446 Q St., N.W. Diner—This is a very small piece of chicken you have given me, waiter. Waiter—Yes, sir, but you'll find it will take you a long time to eat it. The Pathhinder KIDDIES' CORNER DOUBLE LETTER SENTENCE Dear Editor: Here is my each word containing double Name ..... Address ..... School ..... Dear Editor: Here is my sentence of at least ten words, each word containing double letters, written with pencil. OPPORTUNITY so grand Opportunity comes to lend a hand, And when on our ear its knock does fall Do not fail to answer its call. One strong and determined knock Just like the rhythm of an old oaken clock. And if this knock we fail to hear The cost to us will be very dear. "Cape Diem," in Latin they say Of course this is a very quaint and ancient way, But there is a new and modern term That would pay us well to learn. There are only two words that this Latin could mean And this you can see by looking keen, Seize your opportunity and seize it well This is all that I attempt to tell. FOUR YEARS OLD By Mrs. Helen McAlpine Gordon Waking with the morning light. Face all wreathed with smiles so bright. Bright. Nestling down in mother's bed. Covers tucked close to her head. Arms around my neck a-stealing, Tender kisses I am feeling. Now she's hurrying on her clothes My, she's hungry! Goodness knows! Following Daddy out of doors. While he does his morning chores Feeding chickens, pulling weeds. Helping just where there's a need Now she's patting doggie's head, Again she rides upon the sled, Then forgetting all the fun. Wonders if her breakfast's done. Busily going from room to room With her dust-cloth and her broom Sweeping here and dusting there. Now she stands upon a chair Reaching high to brush the wall Heeding not that she may fall. Always thoughtful of the others, Always trying to help mother. Tired feet and drooping eyes. My, but how the daylight flies! Slipping quietly on her gown. Still no trace of any frown. Climbing in my arms so high, Whispers, "Now sing, 'Bye O Bye.'" Who could wish for treasures more Than a little girl of four? TRIBUNITES, SHALL WE HAVE MORE OF MISS FRAZIER'S ARTICLES? IF SO WRITE Dear Editor; I am not a Buddie of the Kiddies' Corner, but I read the articles every week. I was especially interested in the articles written by Sarah Frazier each week. As I read the Kiddies' Corner this week, I was very disappointed not to see her article. I should appreciate it very much, and I am sure other readers would, if you would have Sarah to write again. Yours sicerely, ANNETTA SMALLWOOD (12) 1823 18t St., N.W.

Grade ..... TRIBUNITE'S PLEDGE 1. I will never use the word "nigger." 2. I will learn all that I can about the history and traditions of my Race. 3. I will use my eyes and ears to detect slander against my Race, and I will champion my Race wherever I may hear such slander. 4. I will be proud that I am a Negro because God made me one, and, being a Negro, I will do all that I can to add honor to my Race. DREAMS By Laura Jean Murray When my mind is clear and free, When my lessons are far from me, When all the world is gay it seems. I dream of days to come and go, Of how time seems so very slow, Of passing years, and yet it seems That I find time for only dreams. Of lands where freedom lies around Of lands where freedom does abound— I often dream of my own life; The ways of freeing it from strife, And endless sin, and still it seems. That I find time for only dreams. Gften my thoughts wander away, And dwell on things that I can't say COULDNT FOOL JOHNNY Little Boy (gazing at gargoyles on Notre Dame)：“Oh, Ma, that face near the corner looks just like Aunt Hattie.” Ma：“Why, Johnny, aren't you ashamed of yourself?” Little Boy：“Aw, ya can't fool me. That's made out of stone and can't understand what I'm saying.” THE JOY OF BEING THE EDITOR Getting out the Kiddies' Corner is no picnic. If we print jokes, children say we are silly. I we don't, they say we are too serious. If we clip things from other publications, We are too lazy to write them ourselves. If we don't we are stuck on our own stuff. If we do get out and try to hustle, We ought to be on the job in the office. If we make changes in the kiddies' stories, We are too critical. If we don't, we are asleep. Now, like as not, some of you will say. We swiped this from some other paper. V.E DID.
