Malcom Howard Says He Prefers Death to Life Imprisonment; Pleads Innocence FIRST in Advertising and Circulation "NEVER KILLED HER" "NEVER KILLED HER" Declares He Was Living in Hopes of Being Freed of Murder Charge The following is an interview with Malcolm Howard by a Tribune reporter, Thursday. "Well to be frank with you, I don't know but that I'd just as soon have had the chair if I've gotta stay here the rest of my life for something I didn't do," said Malcolm Howard, alleged slayer of his sweetheart, Jess Nelson, in response to the Tribune reporter's query as to how he felt over the commutation by President Coolidge of his death sentence to one of life imprisonment, Thursday. The voice of the death chamber had spoken. It was the voice of one come to life after fourteen months of seemingly endless waiting and monotonous thinking in the dismal confines of "murders' row." Not because of any outward appearance was the man's voice taken as one fully capable in itself to describe those months, but simply because he was recognized as human, that such an impression of the man's accent engraved itself on the mind of the reporter. "I did not kill Jesse Nelson," he fairly shouted to the newspaper man, as several prison guards turned and cast reproaching glances in his direction. Here was a startling revelation, made by a man convicted and sentenced to die on a count of first degree murder, and then after plenty of time in which to prepare for his death, was saved from "burning" by the country's president, the same man who only a few weeks previous had refused to save the lives of four men who peid the supreme penalty; one on a statutory, the other three on homicide charges. "I did not kill Jesse Nelson," he repeated, entirely ignorant of the watching eyes of the blue-coated guardians across the corridor. (Continued on page 9) TWO INJURED IN AUTO COLLISION ON FLA. AVE. An automobile accident at Fifteenth street and Florida avenue, northwest, last Friday evening, resulted in the injury of two persons and their subsequent treatment at Freedmen's Hospital. Mrs. Casper L. Saunders, 34, of 1743 Oregon avenue, and her small son, Casper Leon, junior, three years old, were treated by Dr. C. S. Syphax of Freedmen's staff, when the car driven by Mr. Saunders was in collision with an automobile driven by Levi Miller, white, 18 years old, 2105 Thirty-seventh street, northwest. The Saunders car was traveling southward on Florida avenue, while the white man was proceeding northward on Fifteenth street. Julian Diggs, 3321 Sherman avenue, northwest, a passing motorist, took Mrs. Saunders and her child to the hospital. The case was heard by the Corporation Counsel and ordered to court, where it will be tried at an early date. Meanwhile the injured are recovering rapidly. GIRL SLIGHTLY HURT IN AUTO ACCIDENT Bernice Nelson, 14 years old, living & 253 Third street, southwest, was treated at Freedmen's Hospital, last Friday, when she received slight lacerations when knocked down by the automobile of Arthur Keefer, white, 344 D street, northwest. The child was brought to the hospital in the car of Keefer, and dismissed when it was learned that her injuries were not serious.

Smith, former pastor at South Richmond, Va., now pastor-elect at Metropolitan Baptist Church, R street, between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets, will occupy the pulpit at his new charge, Sunday, July 15. A large crowd is expected to greet Rev. Smith as this will be his first appearance here since his selection two weeks ago. The new minister is a forceful speaker and has made a wonderful record since his graduation. Rev. Smith arrived in town Friday and will remain here several days looking over the work and conferring with the members and officers of the church. He has not as yet informed the deacons of the church whether he will accept the call to Metropolitan or not. However, he is expected to reach some decision before he leaves town or shortly thereafter. DR. BURNETT HAD PARAMOUR, SAY WIFE'S BROTHERS Shooting, they Claim, Grew Out of Argument Over "Other Woman" BURIED HERE FRIDAY Funeral services for Mrs. Gladys Burnett were held last Friday afternoon from the home of her brother, J. Blaine Gordon, 1204 Carrollburg place, southwest. The Rev. William L. Washington, pastor of Zion Baptist Church, conducted the funeral ceremony. Burial was in Harmony Cemetery. Mrs. Burnett was shot and killed by her husband, Dr. Foster Burnett, in their home at Wilmington, N.C., July 2. She is survived by their two children, a girl, 8 years old, and a boy, 4 years old; her mother, Mrs. Cornelia Gordon, 5-A M street, southwest; six brothers, William Blaine, THO EVIDENCE POINTS TO SELF-DEFENSE, MAN IS HELD FOR DEATH A coroner's jury held James Henson, 27 years old, living at 1219 Fiftieth street, northeast, for the action of the grand jury at an inquest, Tuesday, into the death, last Monday, of Daniel Dyson, 25, of 215 Virginia avenue, southeast. Dyson died at Casualty Hospital three days after being struck a fatal blow on the head with a monkey wrench in the hands of Henson. Despite testimony which apprently was conclusive enough to prove that Henson struck Dyson in self defense during an altercation, the jury ordered the former detained on a charge of murder. Three witnesses besides Dr. Joseph D. Rogers, deputy coroner, who performed the autopsy, testified that Dyson was under the influence of liquor at the time of the brawl which occurred in the yard of 126 Forty-eighth street, northeast. Dr. Rogers declared that while the autopsy could not prove that the deceased man had been drinking just prior to the fight which caused his death, due to the fact that Dyson spent three days in the hospital, the condition of his stomach showed that he was a habitual drinker. John Williams, at whose home the fight occurred, and the only eye witness to the affair, testified that Henson had struck Dyson only after the latter had knocked him down and threatened him. The fight is said to have followed an argument over a most trivial matter. Dyson, allegedly, charged that Henson had "said something about" him to which he took offense and attacked the latter. Funeral services for Dyson were held Thursday from John T. Rhines Funeral Parlors. Surviving him are his parents, Daniel and Anna Dyson. Washington Tribune PUBLISHED WEEKLY owar npris ATTEMPT TO OUST DAVIS Name Figures Prominently in Testimony on Sale of Offices 3-DAY HEARING MADE See Hand of "Lily-Whites" in Effort to Make White Man's Party in South ATLANTA, Ga., July 19—Senators Smith W. Brookhart, Republican, and Frank Locher, Democrat, left here for Washington late July 11, to talk with Postmaster General Harry S. New and to show to him documentary records growing out of the three day hearing here of charges that officials of the Republican party in Georgia exacted tribute of those appointed to postmasterships. The name of Benjamin Jefferson Davis, former Republican national committeeman for Georgia, figured prominently in the testimony. While he was serving as national committeeman, Mr. Davis recommended to the Post Office Department in Washington persons for appointment as postmasters. There was no evidence adduced to show that Mr. Davis had demanded any financial contribution for any recommendation he made. (Continued on page 7) PULLMAN PORTERS DISCUSSED POLICY NEW YORK, July 12—The conference of the policy committee of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters convened here at the headquarters of the Brotherhood, Tuesday, July 10. It lasted for three days. The purpose of the policy committee was to formulate and plan the execution of all policies of the organization. The members of the policy committee are A. Philip Randolph, general organizer; Roy Lancaster, secretary-treasurer; W. H. Des Verney, assistant general organizer; Bennie Smith, field organizer; E. J. Bradley, St. Louis division organizer; M. P. Webster, Chicago division organizer and A. L. Totten, general organizer. The agenda of the conference comprised: A consideration and formulation of plans for the Pullman porters' strike. The date was also discussed. A discussion of the strike strategy of the Brotherhood and the plans organized by the Pullman Company to break the strike were fully examined. The organization of the 4000 Pullman porters and maids who are yet out of the Brotherhood were an important item of the agenda. A consideration of the plans for dealing with the "yellow dog" contracts and the company union was also be made. Elaborate plans also made. Elaborate plans were formulated for raising a huge chest or strike fund for the execution of the strike when projected. EAGLE HARBOR BEACH TO BE DREDGED Thirty members were present at the meeting of the Eagle Harbor Association at the cottage of John T. Stewart, president of the association, last Sunday. The report of the beach committee was approved and the committee was authorized to obtain bids for dredging and sanding the beach. Among the cottages completed during the past week were those of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin F. Branson, Mr. and Mrs. William H. Fitzhugh, and Mrs. Ada Saunders. The Cosmopolitan Social Whist Club was entertained by Mr. and Mrs. W. Braxton Wall at their cottage on July 4. The day was spent in boating, fishing, and bathing, after which luncheon was served on the lawn. Among those present were Mr. and Mrs. E. W.

The Odd Fellows Hall Corporation has passed favorably on the plan which calls for the sale of the Odd Fellows' property on M street, northwest, and the purchase of the property at the southeast corner of Twelfth and U streets, running back to the alley on U street. On this site it is planned to erect a modern temple to cost approximately $185,000. It is believed that a ready sale for the M street property can be made as the National Geographical Society, whose Sixteenth street property abuts, that of the Odd Fellows' on M street, has long desired to acquire the property. The plans to sell and rebuild must now be referred to the stockholders of the Odd Fellows Hall Corporation for ratification. If ratified, plans for the new building will be immediately drawn and construction started without delay. The sale of the old property is likely to cover the cost of the new building. While present tentative plans call for a four-story building, it is understood that a five-story structure is also under consideration. The special meeting of stockholders is to be held on July 21, and that if the plans are approved, construction work will start immediately. Six months will be required to complete the buildings. The upper floors will provide ample lodge-room space for the various Odd Fellow lodges and Households of Ruth. A drill hall will be provided in the basement, and the second floor will be devoted to a large auditorium. Two entrances will be located on the Twelfth street side, one for the members of the fraternity and the othe to the auditorium. Several stores will be placed on the U street side. The property fronts 100 feet on U street and 60 feet on Twelfth street. If the Odd Fellows go through with their plans, this will give U street three large fraternal buildings. The Masons are now constructing a temple at the corner of Tenth and U streets, and the Py METROPOLIT SAYS DEACON RULES IN PIC [Editor's Note:—The following article was written by a member of Metropolitan Baptist Church, who, after reading the article in last week's Tribune with reference to the selection of a pastor of that church, felt that the public should know certain details surrounding the selection of the new pastor.] By a Member of Metropolitan Baptist Church What has been termed the inability of congregation and deacon board to agree on a pastor to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Rev. M. W. D. Norman, of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, is regarded by a majority of the members of that church as an untrue presentation of the real facts. It is contended by them that while there has been friction and turbulence, it has more properly been with, and in the deacon board, rath- WM, HARRY DIGGS IS DROWNED AT EAGLE HARBOR ALEXANDRIA, Va. — William Henry Diggs, age 29, known among his friends as "J. B.," was drowned on July 4, while bathing in the Patuxent River, at Eagle Harbor. Md., a small summer colony about forty-nine miles from Washington. Mr. Diggs and a few friends WILLIAM HENRY DIGGS, Alexandria mechanic, who was drowned on July 4. motored to Eagle Harbor for the holiday. It is stated by eye-witnesses that Diggs, who was in the river, was joking with one of his party who was sitting on the wharf; all the time he was walking backwards into deeper water, when, suddenly, he slipped or stepped into a hole. After a short struggle, he was drowned. He could not swim. His body was recovered the next day. He was engaged in the automobile repair business at the corner of Payne and Cameron streets. He was regarded as an expert mechanic. Mrs. Mary Stanton, his mother, and a brother, Julian Diggs, survive him. thians already have a large temple at the southwest corner of Twelfth and U streets. er than among the members, or between the members and the board. The board by its arbitrary and dogmatic conduct has deprived the congregation of a fair and rightful participation in either the selection of Rev. E. C. Smith or any of the others, who from time to time have been proposed for the place. The congregation feels justified in the present attempt of putting the saddle on the right horse. It considers that a great injustice reflects on the body by allowing the prevailing view now before the general public to stand. To them the question does not hinge on the lack of ability to agree, but on the question of recognition and observance of the prescribed rules of Baptist discipline and honesty in procedure.

Indictment is Sought for Alleged Sale in State of Federal Patronage SIX NEGROES NAMED Regarded Further Attempt to Oust Negroes from Party Leadership BILOXI, Miss., July 21.—A special Federal grand jury was convened here Wednesday for presentation to it of charges involving the alleged sale of Federal patronage in Mississippi. Indictments are sought against Perry W. Howard, Republican national committeeman; Eugene P. Booze, the husband of Mrs. Mary C. Booze, the Republican national Committeewoman; Dr. A. M. and S. D. Redmond, W. L. Mhoon and E. L. Patton, colored, and John H. Cook, United States attorney for the northern district of Mississippi, and George F. McLeland, former postmaster at Newton, white. All of them are prominent in Republican politics in Mississippi. This latest move is regarded as a further effort to get rid of Negro leadership in the Republican party in this state as well as in other southern states. Woman Presents Charges Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, an assistant attorney general, Washington, D.C., who was chairman of the committee on credentials at the Republican national convention, is said to be directing the presentation of the charges to the grand jury. The selection of a place for the convening of the special grand jury lends weight to this belief. The Gulf Coast, which was chosen, is the part of the state controlled by the Edward Hines Lumber Company, a powerful financial concern. (Continued on page 2) GRANT TO OPEN POOL WITH A WHITE SUPT. A bittor pill, sugar-coated merely on its face side, was handed by Lieut.Colonel U. S. Grant, director of public buildings and public parks, to representatives of protesting Negro organizations, as his final decision in the fight waged by leading colored persons against the proposed appointment of S. T. Kimball (white) as superintendent of the New Municipal Bathing Pool, at Twenty-fifth and N streets, northwest. The decision was rendered, Thursday, at a conference with the group at his office. Although the fight of the Negroes was to displace Kimball as superintendent of the pool in favor of H. K. Howerton, colored applicant for the job, the director in his desire to uphold the action of Captain M. H. Parsons, who selected Kimball, made the very first promise he could think of that might have a tendency to "soft soap" the protestants, and the representing group went away apparently satisfied. Lieutenant-Colonel Grant told the conference that he would open the pool with Kimball in charge of Negro subordinates, and as soon as a Negro proved himself capable of holding the position, he would be appointed to it. He was forced to this action, he said, when he learned that no colored applicants had qualified for the position. The director gives no definite length of time as what he believes should be long enough to find a man, and since it is only ten weeks that the pool will be in operation, it is evident that he intends to carry out the plans set out by him and his office, with no regard other than a feigned consideration of the colored people's fight. No victory has been won, and only by carrying a program of complete boycott can the Negro race win this fight after the loss of so many because of their inability to see the light and cling to their fight. ers De Inno WITH THERMOMETER AT 90, IS ARRESTED WITH OVERCOAT ON Thomas Smothers, 1918 Thirteenth street, northwest, was ordered held for the action of the grand jury under $500 bond by Judge Isaac Hitz in police court, Monday. Smothers is held on a charge of robbery. Smothers is alleged to have entered a tailor shop at Thirteenth and U streets, northwest, last Saturday night and stolen an overcoat. The coat was identified by the proprietor of the shop and the reputed owner of the coat. The defendant testified that he had purchased the overcoat from a second-hand clothing store at 639 D street, northwest. The proprietor of that place, however, denied having sold the coat to Smothers, and asserted that he had never seen the garment before. Smothers was arrested while wearing the overcoat, by officers of the eight police precinct, despite the fact that the thermometer was registering around 90. WIFE ASKS JUDGE TO GIVE HUBBY FLAT TIME IN JAIL "No chances and No Fines Cause He's Absolutely No Good" SENTENCED 140 DAYS "Please just give him flat time, Judge, Your Honor, because he's absolutely no good," said Mrs. Elizabeth Edmunds, and two judges, sitting in separate branches of Police Court, Monday, corroborated in jailing William Edmunds, 29, 1341 U street, northwest, for a term which was requested by his wife. She asked that he be given no chances and no fines. Arraigned in Traffic Court at 10:40 a.m., Edmunds was sentenced to sixty days on a charge of operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor, and then fined $25 or ten days for wreckless driving. Twenty-one minutes later, Judge Isaac Hitt sentenced Edmunds to sixty days on a charge of threatening his wife the same day of the accident, and then fined him $25 or ten days for assaulting Officer O. K. Stanton, number 12, who placed him under arrest. In Police Court The policeman told the same story in both courts. He declared that while patrolling his motorcycle beat of Rhode Island avenue, northeast, late Saturday afternoon, he became aware of the inability of a coloree man to handle a motor cycle on which he was riding with a girl. Stanton said he watched (Continued on page 10) ARRAIGN AND HOLD CHURCH THIEF Robert Clarence Johnson, 43 whose arrest, last Tuesday, by Headquarters Detective Thomas J Nally, cleared up robberies of nineteen local churches, was arraigned before Judge Isaac Hitt, in Police Court, last Saturday. Johnson was held for the action of the grand jury under $2,500 bond. While local police are holding evidence which would prove his connection with nineteen church robberies, only two of these charges were presented as a measure of saving time. The other charges will be presented when Johnson is brought to trial. For three weeks, pastors, deacons, and congregations of local churches were in a constant seige of worry as in the "church thief" preyed upon houses of worship in every section of the city. His arrest led to the recovery of enough loot to fill two rooms at the Detective Bureau. Johnson came to this city about a month ago from New Orleans, La., where he is said to have served two different terms for housebreaking.

The exercises, sponsored by the Grand Officers of the Grand Household of Ruth and the Executive Committee of the District Grand Household of Ruth, No. 1, were held for the purpose of paying tribute to Mrs. Parker for her noble work in the women's auxiliary to the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows. During her many years of faithful work in the organization Mrs. Parker was the first Most Grand Noble Governor in the District of Columbia, the first woman to hold the position as National Secretary of the Grand Household of Ruth, and the first woman to hold the position as the National Most Worthy Grand Superior. The latter office, Mrs. Parker filled for eighteen years. Mrs. Parker died May 14, 1927, after an illness of about three weeks following an operation.

ZIFF CO, Chicago New York Los Angeles. TEN Liberal Progressive Independent "THE ROAD TO RUIN," a moving picture, appeals to many as offering such pleasures along the way, as to make the end of the journey acceptable when it comes. Speed noise, wild music, few clothes, illicit liquor, the utter impossibility of getting anywhere by old fashioned work at low wages, and the refusal of our elders to be their ages, all combine to spur youth to have "a good time, while it lasts, 'cause you will be a long time dead." They miss the point; we have thus far along the path of civilization only by curbing just those emotions that youth thinks must be expressed. It is a broad, smooth road, and inclines witless ones to speed along with the crowd. INVESTIGATION INTO PAYMENTS BY DEMOCRATS to hold office under Republican administration, goes on apace, with evidence of money having passed to support the Republican organization. Since no black Republicans may hold office, white Democrats pay for their jobs and prostitute citizenship in the section where Negroes are enslaved economically and politically and in turn enslave their masters. --- AL SMITH BELIEVES IN KEEPING THE GOAL IN SIGHT, hence the democratic headquarters over the Madrillon cafe, at Fifteenth and New York avenue, one square from the White House. "So near and yet so far," as the Browns said to the Yanks in last Sunday's games. ECONOMIC MARRIAGE Among the neutral ways of acquiring wealth—neutral in that nothing is added to the total increase in goods—is the marriage where one or both parties is in easy circumstances. As our group develops and imitates the ways of other people generally, we have come to form such unions. Our periodicals give much space to the publicity connected with the union of families which have accumulated an enviable amount of this world's goods. Later, from time to time, equal space is given to the separation, and occasionally to the formation of a new union. Marriage is essential to the completeness of either man or woman. Whether we believe in evolution or not, we are forced to the conclusion that neither men nor women are complete in themselves. Some biologists believe that the male child carries the mother's nervous system; the famale carries the father's. Whether that be so or not, men in general seek some female who is a complement to their own incomplete lives, and women seek the one man who will make the father of their children. Those who come from good homes where the parents have nurtured and cultured them, may not be aware of it, but they are—male and female—seeking a duplicate of their own mother and father. The psychologists tell us that our mothers, for the boys, and our fathers, for the girls, are our first ideal women and men. Under simpler conditions of living, we obeyed those inclinations, and met the difficulties of married life, with a certain life-long resignation. As a result, we have come very far along the path of civilization. Today, we discard the ideals established in our families, and make marriage contracts based upon mere propinquity—daily nearness and the habit of association—or upon some external, like clothes or the condition of the hair or the skin, or lines of the body. Those who have come to calculate and to seek improved physical surroundings, now form an alliance with some one who is drawing good pay, has money or the evidence of it, or is connected with a family that has accumulated something. We are forming an aristocracy of the beginnings of money wealth, and we are obliged to assume all the disadvantages of just such unions. Marriages based simply upon emotional stir cannot last, because the emotions tire and deaden by the use of them; they must be backed by other appeals, or, the Washington Tribune Washington Tribune Published Weekly at Washington, D.C. by THE WASHINGTON POST PUBLISHING COMPANY, Inc. people involved must grow and improve in their relations to each other as the years pass. Economic marriages are liable to be founded upon extreme selfishness in one or both of the parties, and such a deadly enemy to the necessary compromises and small sacrifices of married life will quickly eat into the bonds of the union. An economic basis of marriage is essential, because the costs and contingencies of married life give rise to feelings which make people most disagreeable, but a mere economic marriage, without other and more spiritual bases, is fraught with danger. With good health on the part of both persons, the consummation of marriage and the new basis of unselfishness, is the child. This new bond is frequently omitted from economic marriages, thus thwarting the tendency to the formation of a home, and giving the dwelling place over to the entertainment of friends who envy, rival or upset the harmony of the two. An interesting difference is to be noted between the economic basis of marriage, and mere economic marriages; look around a bit. THE NEW VOTERRS Presidential elections are always more or less of a gamble because of the presence of new voters, young men and women who have come of age since the last national choice of an executive. It is roughly estimated that this year 7,000,000 new voters will be eligible to cast their ballots for the contesting candidates. Added to that is an equal number who cast their first ballot in the election of 1924. That grand total of 14,000,000 new voters must be organized and got into one or the other camps before next November. On the basis of a business organization seeking to sell its goods to so vast a number of people spread over so great a territory, the cost would be tremendous. With the added element of rivalry by the parties and final action by the voters, the metods used to induce their favor must be especially novel, convincing and repeated. The cost involved in such a prodigious campaign is to be measured by the character of the business to be controlled, and when it is recalled that the staggering sum of four billions of dollars was appropriated for governmental expenses for the current year, some idea may be formed of the magnitude and importance of the control. At the rate of one dollar per voter, it would cost fourteen million dollars to reach the new voters alone, and allowing half that sum to stir the enthusiasm of the regulars who are much too indifferent to the seriousness of their obligation as citizens, we get the sum of twenty-one million dollars as campaign expense, or selling and advertising costs necessary to put the candidates over. There is grave danger that parsimony may result in the election being decided by a minority. In some states, in past elections, but few people have troubled to vote. That tendency is growing stronger and its correction would well be worth the cost in money necessary to stir the slothful and indifferent to a high pitch of enthusiasm. CRIMES OF PASSION Despite the fact that Malcolm Howard will not give his life in the electric chair for the murder of his sweetheart—society's form of official revenge, under which crime seems to increase, rather than diminish—young men of our group will continue to commit crimes of passion until our young women learn to be faithful, or until our young men learn the "philosophy of love," or both. Society is not without blame in these matters, because our young people find themselves caught in the net of low wages and impossibility of early marriage, thus drifting into relations which imply possession, but are not binding. Again, the close contact and numerous opportunities for intimate association caused by city dwelling and the short hours of THE LETTER BOX COMPLAINS ABOUT STORY Editor, Washington Tribune, Dear Sir: In your issue of June 29, 1928, your paper, in glaring headlines featured the case of a local young lady who was not to become a Junibe, as announced; because it was found out that the would- be groom was already married; and gave other embarrassing details. Serious consequences have followed matters far less trivial. Do you think this the kind of news that the better class of your readers like to see broadcasted knowing not at what time they or their friends, without aid or check, might be the object of such merciless publicity of matters personal, private or family? You could appreciate the feeling, in the premises, had the party in the case been your own sister, that you would shield and protect without stint or limit. The well thinking public and the public-spirited press, under such circumstances, offer their sympathy and their services to help an embarrassed family, in any way possible, over such rough places; instead of tearing a sore wound larger by parading such delicate matters before the public for the gossip and perversion of scandalongers. To my mind, it savors of yellow journalism. If no help could be given why offer another blow. The least you could have done was to offer your service and ask whether the family wanted to make a public statement, and abide by their wishes. When the fight was on in the government departments against segregation and for high principles of manhood, your paper was silent; while the press here and elsewhere gave the clerks their hearty support which helped to win. There is a time to speak and a time to keep silent. Shall we expect your paper to be a shield or a sword to the public? Is a defenseless public to be imposed upon by its would-be friends, the press, by poor investigation and distorted facts in a heartless manner without recourse to defense or a hearing? It looks like striking a man when he is down. O. E. Jones HOW TO VOTE 10 the Washington Tribune. Where does the Negro stand today politically? The Republican party gave him cold hash at Kansas City, Missouri. The Democratic party gave him hot soup thickened with lynching at Houston, Texas. It seems to me that so far as party politics are concerned, he is neither hot nor cold, and, I am sure he is in no shape to listen to agonistic speeches made for the purpose of self interest alone by members of his race. Providence seems to have placed the Negro in his present position "between the devil and the deep blue sea." Advice in just a few words, if taken, would give the Negro a triumph. If the South goes for Smith, let every Negro go against him, and go for Hoover. If the South turns to Hoover, let every Negro, go for Smith—if they do neither, let the Negro act as other independent people, divide between Hoover and Smith. Dr. E. P. Moon, LL.B. Mutual, Md.

Jealousy is a monster from which young women should flee at its first outcropping, and against which young men should guard themselves either by perfect trust and confidence, or by understanding the nature of the "love-life" of women, which must be satisfied and can not be chained. The woman who arouses jealousy in a young man known to be subject to the mental malady, is not murdered, she commits suicide.

I had won tickets from you for a double letter sentence some time ago. I went to the Gardens with my mother and father. There were lots of people from Baltimore there. I think an excursion or picnic was run from Baltimore to the Gardens. There were lots of grown folks and children. At six o'clock we visited some friends in Deanwood. We stopped at the Gardens about ten o'clock and waited to see the act. The act was very good. Two men stood in two large iron whoops while they went around in a circle in the air. It was a bit thrilling. I saw you at the park, and I pointed you out to my parents. I thank you for the tickets. When are you going to have some more contests? Clarice A.

TELLS AEOUT PET Dear Editor: I want to tell you about my pet. I am just wild about cats and dogs. I have never been permitted to keep a dog, although we have had a cat for years and years. Some people say that cats are very hard to train to do tricks. Our cat will get in a chair when told, will go out doors when told, will jump over my arm, will sit up and beg, and she knows where to find her ball that she plays with. I have seen dogs who can't do anything at all. My cat's name is Ding-go. I guess that's the way to spell it at least that what's call her. She had kitties, the cutest little kitties that you could imagine. One of them had a short little crooked tail, and he is just as playful as he can be. I want a puppy and then I will be perfectly happy. Louise Johnson (14) WIFE ASKS JUDGE TO GIVE HUBBY JAIL (Continued from page 1) couple. At Twelfth and Rhode Island avenue, he said, the motorcycle collided with a parked Ford coupe. He immediately called his precinct wagon and took them to treedmen's Hospital. On the way to the hospital, the officer stated, Edmunds became violent and tried to break away. In his effort to free himself, Stanton said, the colored man kicked him and did all he could to escape. When he investigated the case, the policeman learned that the woman who was with Edmunds was not his wife, and that his wife, when told of the affair, entered a complaint that she had been threatened by her husband. In Traffic Court, Edmunds told Judge Schuldt that he was not guilty of the driving while drunk charge, because he declared, he had not had a drink all day.

I determined to write to you the first week I noticed that each article was separated with the line, "Don't Say Nigger." I think that is a fine idea, and it would be a good idea to use it all through your paper, and in all other Negro papers. I'm still for the Corner, and if there is anything that makes me angry is to hear someone use the word "nigger." Keep up the good work.

Three Investigations Charges of trafficking in office on the part of certain persons connected with the Republican organization in Mississippi have been the subject of three investigations. It was first investigated by the Post Office Department, later by the Department of Justice, and also by a Federal grand jury in Mississippi. A congressional investigation was sought in 1926, but the House judiciary committee reported adversely the resolution proposing the investigation. This has caused many Negro politicians to view with suspicion the candidacy of Herbert Hoover. They are afraid that if he is elected, unless he changes his present evident policies, that his administration will be more disastrous to the race than that of William Howard Taft. Hoover's desire to break the solid south is believed to be the reason why so much encouragement is being given the various Lily-white factions. DR. BURNETT HAD PARAMOUR IS CLAIM (Continued from page 1) Vincent, Robert, Fred and George Gordon, and a sister, Mrs. Blanche Hill. "Attentive to Another" According to Blaine Gordon, one of the five brothers who accompanied their mother to Wilmington and returned with the body here for burial, Dr. Burnett killed his youthful and beautiful wife as the result of an argument they had over attentions she claimed he was paying to another woman. Mrs. Burnett had just returned from a nearby bathing beach when Dr. Burnett came into the home and asked why she had got home so soon, Mr. Gordon said he was told. His sister replied that she had left the beach because she had seen his paramour there and she did not want to be at the same place with her, he stated. Out of this argument the shooting resulted. Dr. Burnett told the Wilmington police that on the Sunday before the shooting he had spent considerable time with a very ill patient and when he returned home his wife began nagging him. This nagging, he said, continued Monday until she threatened to shoot him. Three Shots Effective He went downstairs to get his revolver to lock it up, he said. When he started back up the stairs, he saw his wife standing at the head of the steps with a revolver in her hand, he said. He became temporarily insane, he claims, and began shooting. He emptied his revolver, firing five shots. Three of them took effect. He then telephoned at the police station, telling them that he had killed his wife. When the policemen arrived, they found a revolver a short distance away from Mrs. Burnett. Mr. Gordon claims that there is a minister, who went into house three times before the arrival of the police. On his first two visits, says Mr. Gordon, this minister will testify that he saw no gun. Dr. Burnett "planted" the gun before the police came, Mr. Gordon claims. Burnett Denied Bail The Wilmington coroner held an inquest on July 3. Dr. Burnett was ordered held for t. action of the grand jury. He has been denied bail. The case will probably be presented to the grand jury during the week of July 23. Dr. and Mrs. Foster Burnett are well known here in society circles. Dr. Burnett graduated from the Howard University medical school in June, 1917. Mrs. Burnett was a student in the Armstrong High School. She was noted for her beauty. Eloped to Alexandria She and Dr. Burnett eloped to Alexandria, Va., and were married shortly after his graduation. At the time she was only 15 years old. The Burnetts were frequently guests in homes of the fashionable set here. Last year they went to Europe. They were planning to go abroad again this summer. Friends of the couple here say that the killing of Mrs. Burnet was the culmination of a long series of petty quarrels. Each was said to be insanely jealous of the other. Dr. Burnett, in his school days, was marked by peculiarities, his friends state. WASH. AND VICINITY FEDERATION IN RALLY A large audience attended the rally of the Washington and Vicinity Federation of Colored Women, Mrs. Julia West Hamilton, president, on Sunday, July 8, at the Metropolitan A.M.E. Church. The special features of the program were the addresses delivered by Mrs. Nettie Langston Napier, of Nashville, Tenn., who is president of the Frederick Douglass Association; Mrs. Frederick Douglass Perry, of Kansas City, Mo., granddaughter of Frederick Douglass; Mrs. Nellie W. Green, state president of the Oklahoma Federation; and Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, honorary trustee of the National Association of Colored Women. The program also included readings by Mrs. Ella Burns and Mrs. Edna French; two solos by E. E. Ayers, and an instrumental solo by Miss Mason. The Washington and Vicinity Federation is a branch of the National Association of Colored Women, of which Mrs. Mary McCleod Bethune is president. To Restore Home Mrs. Perry, in her speech, expressed the hope that the Frederick Douglass Home would be restored to its former status. She stated that many pieces of the furniture are now stored in the attic; it is her desire to see the home restored as she remembers it. Mrs. Perry also stated that a group of Washington women is planning to enter the Federation before the annual convention on July 27. She expressed the hope that they would come in with a constructive plan. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, JULY 13, 1928 We are here to save you money on dependable heating. All we ask is the opportunity to show you how much we can save you and what we have to offer in superior Heating Equipment and expert installation. Cites Accomplishments Mrs. Mary Church Terrell's speech conveyed the idea of success already achieved. She told briefly of some of the things done, such as establishing kindergarten funds, orphan homes, and old folks' homes. Mrs. Terrell also outlined her visions of the Douglass home as a shrine. She said that the shrine with all its cherry trees, terraces, and hedges would be a place where the colored youths of America could go and drink in the personality of such a man as Frederick Douglass. Headquarters Purchased It has long been the aim of the National Association of Colored Women to establish a caretaker's cottage on the grounds of the Frederick Douglass Home, leaving the house itself to become a shrine. The caretaker's cottage will be dedicated during the biennial convention. The transaction of business at the Frederick Douglass Home would be a desecration in the estimation of the association, therefore, the association has purchased a building at Twelfth and O streets, HERE'S BETTER HEATING AT LOWER COST Every Heating Plant installed by us carries with it an iron-clad five-year guarantee—and we give from four months to three years in which to pay ON OUR PARTIAL PAYMENT PLAN.

THIS WEEK'S SERMON THE FUTURE AND ETERNAL PUNISHMENT OF THE WICKED By Rev. J. C. Banks, S.T.D. "These shall go away into everlasting punishment."—Matt. 25:46. "There must be a state of future punishment for the wicked, because the amount of criminality A. E. H. Rev. J. C. BANKS, S.T.D. Pastor, Bethlehem Baptist Church, S.E., Washington, D.C. of their sins cannot be estimated during time. There is no government without law. Law is a nullity without a penalty. In fact, as law is a necessity to government, so penalty is a necessity to law. Punishment for the violation lies at the very foundation of all government. Upon the certainty with which the penalty of the violation of law is inflicted, depends the existence and rectitude of the government. Government has no power unless its laws have a commensurate penalty, and unless it is well known by the subjects of the government, that the penalty will be enforced. If every man in our country felt that the penalties of our laws would certainly fall upon him if he violated the law, crime would cease. Rob God's law of a commensurate and certain penalty, and Christianity and churches would soon disappear from the world. Man is a subject of the divine government. The government being divine, it is one of justice. Justice requires the man to discharge the obligation of duty arising out of his relations. He being able to meet the requirements, if he fails, or violates these obligations, justice requires that he should be judged, and have a punishment equal to the criminality of his failures, and the criminality of his violations. Every failure and violation, or sin, must be weighed in the scales of justice, and the degree of criminality attaching to it fairly adjudged. To affix the degree of criminality attaching to the sin, the sin must be examined in reference to the elements composing the sin. After the degree of criminality attaching to the sin is fully estimated, then, and then only, can an equal punishment be noted out. equally punishment be met out. The degree of criminality attaching to the sin cannot be estimated during the sinner's life on earth. With reference to the intention prompting the sin, and the principle involved in it, the criminality might be estimated, because the intention and principles are connate with, and reach their development with the act, but the influence of the act sweeps through all time. Man is but a part of the vast system of God, which is of itself a unity, and his thoughts, words, and acts have their influencing impress upon the universe. I might urge this from several scientific considerations, but will not. Suffice me to say that every man is connected with the past, present, and future by a thousand cords of thrilling sympathy which make individual isolation impossible. Cords of intellectual, spiritual, physical, domestic, social, national, limil and religious sympathy, connect him with all generations dead and unborn. He is the active and sensitive center of a reticulation of sympathies whereby dead ages impress their character upon him, and he in his turn impresses his character upon the ages yet to come. By them he receives the influences 'of the past; by them he transmits his own influence, modified by the influences of the past, to posterity. Each thread of sympathy is a conductor. Every word and every act of every man, dancing with feet of fire upon the quivering cords, flashes its influence upon the latest generation; exciting in its course the sensoria of numberless other sympathetic systems, and these still others, all acting obediently till the last day. Let the sinner reject Christ if he dare, sin in private, reflecting from his character upon others, directly or indirectly, his influence will live during time; and as long as it affects men during their probation, he is and will be accountable for it, living or dead. The Bible teaches that men will not only be rewarded for their doings, but also for the fruit of their doings. Now if the influences of men's sins must be estimated together, with the intention prompting them, and the principle involved in them, in order to affix the proper degree of criminality attaching to them, that an equal punishment might be meted out for them, it must be when the influence of their sins in time ceases. If the influences of men's sins live through all time, then men cannot be punished in proportion to their guilf till time be no more; therefore, there is state of punishment.

I answer, no. True. God's acquaintance with the future is perfect, but to inflict punishment or bestow reward for actions not yet committed by the agent, and results not yet accomplished, would be in violation of every principle of justice. Though God in virtue of His perfection may be perfectly cognizant of the sin and its influences in advance of its actual and present connection with the agent, yet as far as their relation to the agent is concerned they are as if God did not know them, and as if they would never take place. Every word in the Hebrew and Greek languages meaning duration without an end is applied to it, and in olam, aion and their various constructions, as applied to the future punishment of the wicked, do not mean duration without an end. There is no word in either language which does, and they never had the idea—which is absurd. If not eternal, God is not eternal, and the reward of the righteous is not. This punishment is put after the resurrection. Some sins were not to be forgiven in this life, or in the life to come. The wicked is to be the same with that duration of the punishment of the of the devil and his angels. It is eternal as a matter of fact, and as a matter of right. As a matter of fact, hear three truths and the conclusion: man is immortal—this is one truth; man is placed in a state of trial—this is the second truth; his trial will terminate with his life—this is the third truth. CATHOLIC NEWS The Seminary Club organized for the purpose of helping the young men who are studying for the priesthood at St. Augustine's Seminary, Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, extend their thanks and appreciation to all who helped to make the recent concerts a success.

Scott, secretary-treasurer of How- ard University and_ secretary of the Board of Athletic Control, of- fering him a contract for an in- definite period. The offer stated that he would be retained as long as his services were satisfactory to the president of the university and the board of trustees. Coach Watson’s three-year con- tract expired in 1927. The Board of Athletic Control, which gener- ally handles all athletic matters, voted and recommended to the pres- ident the renewing of this contract for another period of three years. This recommendation reached President Johnson in January, 1928. He did not bring the matter to the attention of the Board of Trustées at its mid-winter meeting. It was stated by many at this time that President Johnson did not favor giving Mr. Watson a three-year contract and that he was holding the matter in abeyance until he could work out another offer. A New Contract The president presented his offer to the Board of Trustees at the June meeting and it was referred to the executive committee. After nearly two months, the president has notified Coach Watson of the kind of contract he is willing to offer him. Coach Watson was reached at his home but refused to comment on the president's offer, other than to admit that he had received the of- fer but stated that he had not reached any decision as to whether he would or would not accept the contract. The delay in giving Coach Wat- son a contract or refusing to give him one, caused much dissatisfac- tion among the student botly and alumni of the university. Several delegations of students called on the president before school closed in Watson's behalf. Before grad- uation day this year, there was much ronbling of discontent at the president's delay and many of the prospective candidates for the foot- ball team next fall stated that they would not play if Watson was not to coach them. Watson's Record Good Watson caine to Howard in 1924 from Virginia Normal at Peters- burg, where he earned a national reputation as a coach. After his first year at Howard, he was given a three-year contract. During this time, he has produced some of the greatest teams in the long history’ of the institution. Lincoln has not as yet defeated a Watson coached team. At the dedication of the new Howard Stadium in 1926, Wat- son's team completely humiliated Lincoln in a long waited for re- venge for the defeat of Howard by Lincoln in 1920. Last year, however, Howard had a disastrous year on’ the gridiron. This was no fault’ of Watson's though. The trouble arose over an order of President Jahnson’s that all fotball players would have to pay their board like other students and at the same time réfused sev- eral other concessions that in the past had been made to the football team. Players Resentful This caused much resentment ey, eyes students and alum- ni. team went on a strike and before the strike was ended, it was Recessary to cancel the first game of the season which was with Liv- ingstone College. The early con- ditioning of the men was lost and the team morale was completoly broken. The team never recovered its 1926 form with the result that it jost three games, tied two and only there. a Coach Watson is very popular among the students and alumni. He is a graduate of Howard and the Springfield Y.M.C.A. College. ia et eee Howard Cab Potomac 142 sara owns [THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JULY 18, 1928 ae TEAMS TAKE NOTICE The Lafayette Junior nine is anxious to arrange gamés with young teams in and around the ‘District and Here Write W.

Letter Introduced A letter was introduced from Mr. Davis to John W. Martin, white, Republican state treasurer, dated February 4, 1927. It stated that Mr. Davis had received two com- munications from an applicant fo the postmastership at Tennille, one asking for the return of a contri- bution to the Republican organiza- tion, and the other withdrawing the ‘réquest for a refund and ask- ing for recommendation for ap- pointment. Mr. Davis suggested that Mr. Martin send the applicant a check for the amount he had contributed, ‘adding: “We cannot accept money from any applicant who confesses that the money was given on his part out of consideration for an anpolevanent.” it. Davis was one of several of- ficers of the Republican state or- ganization, who was on a monthly PRv7ll the records of Treasurer jartin’ showed. He received $250 ‘a month. Roscoe Pickatt, state chairman, and the state treasurer also received $250 a month each, Others were paid lesser sums. Davis on Stand Recalled to the stand on the sec- ond day of the hearing, Mr. Davis testified that the advertising he had done in his own newspaper, the Atlanta Independent, for the Re- uublican party, amounted to about $is0\a. year for the state commit tee and $600 or $700 for the State conventions. He denied, however, that these sums could be charged against him as a personal income, as he owns only 40 per cent of the stock in the newspaper.

REPUBLIC THEATRE Ramon Novarro, the star of Ben Hur,” will be shown in his latest Production, “A Certain , Young - Man,” at the Republic Theatre, on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, July 15, 16, 17, and 18. A great cast supports Novarro in his picture, including Marceline Day, Renee Adoree, Carmel Myers and Huntley Gordon. Novarro has the part of a young Englishman ‘who “attracts women wherever he goes. He gets into many delicate stuations with married women— "and gets out of them much to their Husbands’ discomfiture. And then all changes when he really meets the one girl. His past record of affairs with women is against him but he does win the girl he loves. In “A Certain Young Man,” No- varro again proves himself the ‘s¢reen’s greatest romantic actor. “Streets of Shanghai,” a dra- matic and thrilling story of the mystery city of the Orient, will be tue feature attraction on Thurs- day, Friday and Saturday, July 19, 20, and 21. Pauline Starke, Ken- neth Harlan, Anna May Wong and Sojin are the featured players. The streets of Shanghai—what mys- tery,.romance, adventure dwell in those magic words. And one par- ticular street—the Street of Laugh- ing Girls—only the Chinese could have named a street of such na- ture. Laughing? Yes, when well ‘paid—but more often there are bit- ter hearts—and sometimes regrets. “Streets of Shanghai” is a vivid story, having in its dramatic, un- folding all the elements skillfully ‘woven together in a plot that holds one throughout. »,The Vitaphone acts to be pre- sented throughout the week are: ‘Venita Gould, the famou: star im- pprvoaaior, who gives impressions Some of the most popular stage stars. The Yacht Club Boys, a quartyt of night elut entertainers Play & good many instruments and sing well, and “On the Air,” a Vitaphone sketch that takes you behind the scenes of a broadcast- ing studio and shows you what goeson there. “On the Air” is one of ‘the funniest ‘sketches Vitaphone Secs: Ova’ sable.” LINCOLN THEATRE «It is with justifiable pride that the Lincoln” Theatre announces “Drums of Love” for Sunday, Mon- day, Tuesday, Wednesday, and ‘Thursday. Mary Philbin, the adorable hero- ne of “Merry-Go-Round” and “The Phantom of the Opera,” makes her debut as a Griffith player, as do Don Alvarado and William’ Austin. Alvarado has already tasted the sweets of success through appear- ‘ances with Dolores Del Rio in “Loves of Carmen,” and with Con- “stance ‘Talmadge in “Breakfast at Sunrise.” Austin has contributed notable farce characterizations in “It” and “Honeymoon Hate.” As for Lionel Barrymore, his most re- cent screen role’ was enacted in Gloria Swanson’s “Sadie Thomp- son.” Tully Marshall, the fifth “member of the featured cast, was the séout in “The Covered Wagon.” In “Drums of Love,” the great Ghrector takes ur to) a mythical Kingdom, one in which two brothers hold complete sway. Don Cathos, the fighter, is a man of iron will, anugly, misshapen dwarf of a Pas, Levnario; the younger, is ndisome and gentle, the object of all women’s eyes. It is only when Gathos receives the beautiful Emanuela for a bride as a token ‘of homage from a neighboring no- bleman, and Leonardo falls in love with his brother’s wife, that com- _Plications enter into the plot. Griffith, the maker of “Broken “Blossoms,” is said to have made this tale of brotherly love a thing ‘of masterly perfection. (Rinty fans, and who is not a Rinty fan?) ‘will be delighted to Kpow that the wonder dog comes te Lincoln ‘Theatre, Friday and Saturday, with full Vitaphone ac- companiment. In Warner Bros! latest starring vehicle, “Rinty of . the Desert,” Rin Tin ‘Tin is first seen as an outcast dog, who leaves | the regions of sand and cactus, by "Way of a passing truck, and finds himself at home with old man Mar- » lowe and his pretty granddaughter, "Mary, keepers of a small dime mu- _seum. Mary's young man, Pat Ca- _ sey of the police force, becomes a of Rinty’s. The big-hearted edog, ce ceed wie his limited @friendships, also adopts a litter of ‘orphan puppies. £ All’ goes well till Mason, a dis- ~ honest partner of Marlowe, lures a, old man away. Pat Casey and ‘Rinty go in a of him. A gang “captures and imprisons Casey, Tetving him to be attacked bys Aesocioun.bull-dog. Ricty is ac "eased of attacking his master, and swentenced to be shot.

Zane Grey knows the West like no one else. For Tuesday only, the feature at- traction will be William Fairbanks and Virginia Lee Gordon in a tense, thrilling, fight-action drama called “The Handsome Brute.” Wednesday and Thursday, lovers of good stories have a treat in store for them as Gene Stratton- Porter's “The Harvester” will be shown, with an all-star cast. “The Harvester” is said to be a better picture than “The Keeper of the Bees,” which was by the same au- thoress. For Friday and Saturday, Adolphe Menjou will be the star in a Paramount picture called “Sere- nade.” At a very early date, Manager Pinchback is going to offer a treat to the ladies by booking the most popular star that ever appeared on the screen. Guess who it is? See next week's paper. ——____ HOWARD THEATRE _ For the week beginning Monday matinee, July 16, will be seen Irvin C, Miller's latest, production, “The Sheik of Harlem.” This is a musi- cal revue based on the night life in the big city and, in addition to the producer, will also be seen in the cast such notable and popular stars as Emmett Anthony, Blanche Thompson, Ida Brown, 8. H. Dud- ley, Jr., also Louise Cooke, Bernie Brown and many others. And last but uot least an unusually large chorus of the famous Miller danc- ing boys and girls, In “On to Reno,” which will be on view at the Howard Theatre, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, Marie Prevost, the star, is the wife of a struggling chap who finds it difficult to meet expenses. She ac- cepts an offer to go to Reno to es- tablish a residence for another wo- man who is seeking a divorce. This bring. about complications of tke most amusing description all of which have been excellently han- dled by James Cruze, the director. Cullen Landis plays opposite t' star and others in the cast include Ethel Wales, Ned Sparks, and Jane Keckley. The comedy is said to be a fit antidote to the blues. William Haines scores’ another knockout. The star of “West Point,” “Spring Fever” and “Brown of Harvard” enters on a nevi sport with a skill and nonchalance as screamingly funny as it is roman. tially dramatic. The sport is polo, heretofore brought to the sereen only as at- mosphere to establish the aristo- cratic social condition of the char- acters in the picture. But in “he Smart } :,” which will be seen at the Howard Theatre Thursday, Fri- day, Saturday and Sunday, ‘polo, its ‘anteceden‘s, environment and education, is the whole picture. ‘The miinight ramble will take place Friday night, beginning at 12:15 o'clock. SUBURBAN GARDENS MADAME BEDINI'S HORSES An exceptionally brilliant dis play of equestrianism is presented by Madame Bedini, famed circus equestrienne, and her two male companions at Suburban Gardens, beginning Sunday, “Haute Ecole” and dancing horses. The riders, mounted on superb, satin-coated, ‘thoroughbred steeds, go through’a routine the like of which has never been witnessed before. These splendid animals respond to the riders’ slightest command, they march, trot, side- gallop and twist themselves around on their two forefeet, then re- spondin, to the modern craze, they dance, and how! They do the fox trot, waltz, Charleston and wind up doing the blacl: bottom. epee CONRAD NAGEL SUPPORTS DOLORES COSTELLO IN “GLORIOUS BETSY” Dolores Costello's greatest pic- ‘ture, an elaborate special entitled “Glorious Betsy,” with full Vita- phone, comes to the Republic Thea- tre, week of July 23, for a run of seven days.

Directed by LOUIS J. GASNIER THE REPUBLIC THEATRE, WITH ITS SIX GIANT FANS THAT FUNCTION PROPERLY IS KEPT MANY DEGREES COOLER THAN THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE MALCOLM HOWARD DENIES GUILT (Continued from page 1) The most logical question, "Then, who did the shooting?" was then fired at the salvaged man. "Well I'd tell you if it was going to do any good, but it can't do nobody good now, so it ain't no use. But listen, you seem to be a pretty deep chap, so I don't care who it hurts, I'll tell you just how the whole thing happened. "It was on a Thursday night, February 3rd, last year, when me and another fellow broke in a place and robbed it. We got all kinds of things, ladies' wearing apparel and everything. Well, beings I lived in a white neighborhood on Chapin street, I wasn't so sure that I ought to take them things to my home. Anyway I decided to go on home. "I drove the automobile we had up in front of the door and was getting ready to cut the motor off when something says to me—says, 'Howard, you ain't doing nothing W. E. L. SANFORD, Ma Continuous DAILY, 2 to MARCELINE DAY CARMEL but getting ready to go to pen. Suppose some of these people see you taking all that load in your house at this hour (it was 3 o'clock in the morning). They wouldn't do a thing but call the cops. "So I started up again and went around to 2351 Sherman avenue, where Jesse's sister, Marigl, lived. We left the things there and went away. "The next day I went to the house to get the things and Marigl had picked out a whole lot of the ladies' clothes for herself and wouldn't give them to me. Well, I didn't want to get in any trouble with her and I couldn't go to the police for help, 'cause I had stolen them myself. "So I went and asked Jesse to help me get them. I wanted to give some to Jesse too. We went to the house that night and when Jesse asked for the things and was refused, I started toward them to take them. "When I started after the clothes, Marjy picked up an oil stove and threw it at me. Jesse then ran over to the table where her pocket-book was, and I knowing that Jesse THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, JULY 13, 1928 had a gun in her pocketbook, grabbed her. Marji then struck me with a glass and cut me and, in the scramble that followed the light went out, putting us all in the dark. Then I heard a shot, and as I did so, I ran out of the house, because I knew blood was thicken's water and I wasn't sure whether Jesse was shooting at me or Marji. "Well, I ran up to the corner store, and called up Jesse's oldest sister. Virgie, and asked her to go to the house and stop Jesse and Marji from fighting. She said she would. "I then made up my mind to leave town, but later in the evening I saw Virgine and she told me that Jesse was dead and that the police were looking for me. So I changed my mind, 'cause while I was going up to run away to keep from being locked up on the robbery charge, I wasn't going to run from a murder charge that I was innocent of. "As soon as I could get in touch with Detective J. C. Murphy, I gave myself up, 'cause I knew him, and I didn't want those other guys to EATRE OU STREET EAR 14th ONE" ic THEATRE YOU STR NEAR 1 E VITAPHONE AUSTIN J. BALASCO, Organist Tues.-Wed Wed. ance!

He didn't seem to take much interest in my case, and told Judge Hoehling so, too. "But I think the main that sent me up was when I lost my head on the witness stand. The prosecuting attorney asked me a whole lot of questions about where Jesse was, and where I was, and where her head was, and where her feet was, and where her hands was and I got mad. "I asked him how the hell he thought I could tell him all that when we was all in a tussle. That the reporter then asked Howard how he could account for the five shots which were alleged to have been fired into the girl's body. "My lawyer," Howard continued, "asked Marjiy when she took the stand, how many shots I fired. Five Marjiy said. "You saw him' my lawyer asked, 'stand over her and shoot into her prostrate body?'

On the evening of July 29, there will be a jageant, "Lifting as we Climb," at the Armstrong High School. It will be under the direction of Miss Nannis H. Burroughs, principal of the National Training School for Women and Girls. Monday Session The first business session of the convention will be held at the Armstrong High School, Monday morning, July 30. That afternoon the delegates and visitors will visit the tomb of the Unknown Soldier and Colonel Charles Young in the Arlington National Cemetery. In the evening at the Metropolitan A.M.E. Church, at which Frederick Douglass worshipped, Col. W. B. Lade, U.S.A., engineer Commissioner of the District of Columbia, will extend greetings. The president, Mrs. Bethune, will also deliver her annual address. The national headquarters of the National Association of Colored Women, at Twelfth and O streets, northwest, will be dedicated, Tuesday, July 31. Wednesday Session The session on Wednesday morning, April 1, will be held at the Frederick Douglass home, Cedar Hill, Anacostia, D.C. The National Association of Colored Women redeemed this home and is maintaining it as a shrine. Its management is in charge of the Douglass Memorial Association, an auxiliary organization. Funds for its maintenance come from the National Association of Colored Women. Recently a five-room hungalow was built for the caretaker, who had been living in the home. The Washington and Vicinity Federation of Women will tender a special reception to the national officers and visiting delegates in the Howard University dining hall Wednesday evening, August 1. Thursday Session The election of officers will be held Thursday, August 2. That is what is known as the quadrennial session. Officers are elected for a term of two years. Usually they are given a second term. The second term of the incumbents are expiring this year, and it is probable that new officers will be chosen. Mrs. Sallie W. Stewart, of Evansville, Ind., a vice-president, is most likely to be elected to succeed Mrs. Bethune as president. Mrs. Stewart has served as the chairman of the Douglass Home Fund. She is a teacher in the public schools of Evansville. Mrs. Bethune will likely be continued as chairman of the board of management of the national headquarters. It was her idea to establish national headquarters here as a clearing house for the activities of colored women and as a place to keep the records of the association. Office Sought The fight for office will most likely center around the vice-presidency. It is regarded as a stepping stone to the presidency. Mrs. Charlotte Hawkins Brown, the founder and president of the Palmer Memorial Institute, Sedalia, N.C., is one of the candidates for this office. Mrs. Janie Porter Barrett, principal of the girls' school at Peak's Turnout, Va., is also a candidate. She is the chairman of the executive board. The term of Mrs. W.T.B. Williams, of Tuskegee Institute, Ala., first recording secretary, will also expire. Other vacancies occurring will be in the office of the second recording secretary and the chairmanship of the executive board. To Entertain Officers Nannie H. Burroughs will entertain the officers, delegates and visitors at tea at her school in Lincoln Heights Wednesday evening, August 2. There will be an automobile sight-seeing tour on Thursday, August 3. That evening the newly-elected officers will be installed. The executive board of the National Association of Colored Women will meet at the Armstrong High School, August 4. 800 Delegates Expected According to reports from Mrs. Daisy E. Lampkins, of Pittsburgh, the chairman of the transportation committee, 800 delegates will attend this session. Reduced railroad rates from every point in the United States have been secured by Mrs. Lampkins. Ample housing facilities have been secured for the delegates here. Mrs. Lucy Pollard is the chairman of the local housing committee. --- Metropolitan Members Say Deacons Violated Rules Metropolitan Members Say Deacons Violated Rules (Continued from page 1) the matter, the board has at no time dealt fairly, nor with any regard to the welfare of the membership, but have pursued a course of unwarranted defiance of the privileges of the body. In all meetings they have been deaf to advice and impervious to reason. This, it is contended, can be easily seen from the real situation on the night of the alleged election. There were four candidates in the field, when as a matter of fact there should have been five. Resorting to their arbitrary practice the board refused to bring before the church the one man whom it seemed was the choice of the majority. When the balloting started there were four names submitted; they were Rev. Smith, Virginia; Rev. Bacoats, Virginia, as first and second choice of the board; Dr. Harrison, Texas, and Dr. Thompson, Georgia, as third and fourth choice. At the outset it was announced that the candidate polling the greatest number of votes would be declared elected. A Second Election Made An article in the Tribune of last week stated that on the first ballet, Rev. Smith and Rev. Harrison were far ahead of the others. The fact is that Rev. Harrison was miles ahead of the field. So sure were some of those present that Rev. Harrison had been elected that they left the church. When this was discovered by the board, the chairman, George Smith, arose and said the election was not over, but there would be a second ballet, and that the vote would be between Rev. Harrison and Rev. Smith, the other two being dropped. It was on this ballot that the board declared Rev. Smith elected, much to the disappointment and against the will of the majority of members present. Balloting was by yeas and nays, but when the names were presented and votes taken, the chairman, at no time allowde a nay vote to be taken on any of the candidates. So determined were they to have their own way about the election, that they refused to poll the house, and consequently they had no way of knowing who voted or how the opposing votes would have gone. Board's Count Low According to their count 428 votes were cast, whereas there were over six hundred persons apparently in the house. That means that there were approximately 200 persons who did not vote for any of the candidates. The general belief among the congregation is that those who did not vote and who made up the approximate 200 were in favor of the one man whom the board refused to bring before them, namely, Dr. Goodall, Philadelphia. Another belief strongly held by some and openly admitted by others, was many of those voting for Rev. Smith were voting under the impression that they were voting for Rev. Smith of Syracuse, N.Y., who had made a very favorable impression with the congregation when he came for a trial sermon some time ago. This statement was made by many of those voting for Rev. Smith of Virginia. Six Votes for Bacoats On the first ballot, the second choice of the board, Rev. Bacoats, received only six votes, whereas Dr. Harrison received approximately 180. No one doubted that more than one ballot would be taken at the beginning, but when the chairman stated that the candidate receiving the highest number of votes would be considered the people's choice, it was conceded that only one ballot was intended.

THE HOME OF THE HUNTINGTONS wise, it had been planned that several votes would go for the several candidates, and when it became evident that none of the names brought before the church could possibly command a majority, that the name of Dr. Goodall would be brought forward and that they would have an opportunity to vote on him. The board refused this as they likewise refused to allow members the right to speak on those matters vital and important. Again this arbitrary practice came to the front, when it was moved that the election of Rev. Smith be made unanimous. While it is certainly held by the members that 85 per cent of the body was and is now, opposed to Rev. Smith, no negative vote was allowed to be registered to the motion for unanimous choice. It was developed in open meeting that the elected pastor was not the unanimous choice of the board, although one member said he was, another arose in the meeting and positively denied that was a fact. From this and other matters, the church knows that there have been frequent clashes among the board members, and they and not the congregation have been the storm center. Just what the cause of all the strife has been is a matter of much distortion, but there is a feeling among the members that certain members of the board have tried to make the church organization a state affair. Recently it dawned upon the congregation that all of their sixteen deacons are natives of Virginia; all officers of importance in the church are natives of Virginia, and now the alleged pastor comes from that state. With a membership of about 7,000 largely from the eastern states, Maryland to Florida, and as far west as Oklahoma and Texas, this condition is not guaranteed to promote much harmony. Since the discovery of this, it was suggested that the name of the church should be changed from Metropolitan to Virginia Baptist Church. An added feature of this state organization is the fact that at the election there were three tellers named and they too were Virginians. Protest at this situation is voiced by many of the congregation who are Virginians, because they regard it as detrimental to the supporting element of the church. Press articles carrying the statement that the congregation was at odds with the board has caused no small number of the congregation to feel very keenly the intended shifting of true responsibility and the blame laid upon its shoulders. It is their contention that it should be on the board, because of its flagrant and wilful violation of all terms of orderly procedure known and observed by Baptist churches through its rules and discipline.

BATHING BOATING Into their actions have crept many signs of prejudice and warped judgment. Absolute frankness and honesty have not played the part they should, the church feels, and offers as proof in one instance the report of a member of the board who was sent to Philadelphia to investigate a candidate. The report said that newspaper boys were going up and down the aisles selling newspapers while services were going on. The fact is that the papers being sold was a church paper, and this was known to the board, but nothing was done to correct a wrong impression which had been created. Instances of bad faith they hold have appeared in many of their other transactions. OPERATE ON G.
