Complaints are coming in from all over the country according to the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters with headquarters here. The feeling seems to be prevalent, and concrete evidences have been submitted, by checks drawn, that many extra porters are drawing less since the $5.00 wage increase than they were getting before the increase was granted. The Company has systematically refused to enouch in the wage agreement, the wage rates that porters and maids are to receive. The Company, in its Company Union Wage Conferences, never puts into the wage agreements, the wage rates that are supposedly agreed upon, as a result of which, no porter can tell, on "any pay day," how much he will receive. Two porters, working the same number of days in the month covering the same territory are known to receive different pay checks. The difficulty of adjusting these discrepancies is great, since the porter must, as a rule, go to Chicago and take the matter up personally with the General Office. Through this method, porters lose hundreds of thousands of dollars, since, either, on account of lack of understanding, or indifference, they do not follow up shortages that are made in their pay, from time to time. Girl, 16, Gored By Bull; Has Fractured Rib While on a short vacation in Silver Spring, Maryland, Miss Bernice Smith, age 16, of 431 Elm street, northwest, was injured, probably seriously, by a cow who gored her.

Mrs. Bertha Mustum age 41, of 96 K street, northeast, succumbed at 9:30, Monday morning, July 29, in Freedmen's Hospital, the result of what is believed to be a self-inflicted gun shot wound in the abdomen. Mrs. Mustum, who had been ill for over a year, was found in a chair at home perfectly conscious, with a bullet wound in the middle of her abdomen, on last Saturday night, July 27, about 11 o'clock. According to Dr. John West, who accompanied the Freedmen's ambulance, no blood was flowing from the fatal wound, nor were there any powder marks or bullet holes in the long night gown which she was wearing at the time. Walked to Ambulance Despite the fact, the unfortunate patient walked to the ambulance, and was in fairly good spirits.

MAN Weeks Barnes, age 19, of Manassas, Va., died in the Freedman's Hospital, Tuesday night, July 30, after an emergency operation proved futile in saving his life. His death was the result of a fractured pelvis and internal injuries that the victim received at midnight, July 27, when the car which he was driving turned over on the road near Manassas, throwing him out and pinning him under it. When the accident occurred, Dr. J. P. Williams, of Manassas, was called. Dr. Williams, finding the patient suffering with a fractured pelvis and serious internal injuries, placed him immediately in his car and brought him to this city to Freedman's Hospital. Up to Tuesday evening, the patient had been improving and in high spirits. Then he suddenly and unexpectedly collapsed. He was immediately operated on in a vain attempt to save his life. A 42-acre track, north of Bennings road and running from Twenty-fourth street, northeast, to the Kingman Lake, was purchased, Tuesday, at a price of $169,000, as a site for a health school, a junior high school and an elementary platoon school for divisions 10 to 13. This was about $4,000 per acre. The deal was made by Major L. E. Atkins, assistant District engineer commissioner. He stated that plans were under consideration by the District government, for the creation of a large recreational centre in Annacostia Park and this tract will fit in the proposed centre. The health school is proposed to be on the sanatorium order where the children may have 24-hour attention instead of the six-hour day as now obtains. The junior high school will care for the northeast section, including Deanwood and the platoon-type school will be an experiment fashioned on the Gary plan.

Many of the visitors came from pure curiosity, having read in the Washington Tribune of the unique community and its exclusiveness complex. The airing by the Tribune of the villagers' objections to the beach hotels and the questionable methods employed to drive the latter out of business, brought a vast increase in patronage to these institutions. If any "undesirables," about whom much has been said, were present, they kept discreetly in the backgrounds. Several New Yorkers were registered at Ware's Hotel. These were Mrs. Robert W. Miller, Jr., Sara B. Carlos and Ada C. Vessellis, Mrs. Elnathon Earley and daughter, of Bloomington, Ill; Miss Harriet Collins, of Wendon, N.C.; Mr. and Mrs. George W.

His illness, said to be double pneumonia caused some alarm on the campus, as when confronted by a Tribune reporter, physicians stated that Mr. Taylor is a very sick man.

Hawkins, financial agent of the A.M. E. Church, is sending out 10,000 blanks to the A.M.E. Churches of the denomination on which they are to certify their vote for the organic union of the A.M.E. and A.M.E. Zion Churches, which was voted upon at the last sessions of the general conferences which met in Chicago and St. Louis, respectively. The fight for union between the various Methodist churches has been in progress for sometime. A meeting of four of the branches of Methodism was held here in 1922. One bishop of the C.M.E. Church threw a wrench in the machinery which caused the meeting to adjourn without accomplishing anything. The merger of these two branches, the A.M.E. and A.M.E. Zion Churches, will be a big step forward. The overlapping of bishops and presiding elders and the duplication of general officers will be eliminated. Schools will be strengthened and the local churches can merge and form a stronger and better organization. The C. M.E.'s, which is the smaller of the three, will possibly awake to its opportunity and at the next general conference may vote for union. Y.W.C.A. Conference Convenes In W. Virginia INSTITUTE, W.

Arnold Hill, director of the Department of Industrial Relations of the National Urban League, cites the gains and losses for Negroes in industry for June. Significant Gains After several years of service as stenographer in the Historical Department of the State, of Des-Moines, Iowa, a Negro woman on the death of a superior was promoted to the dreectorship of the department. A Negro stenographer who had been operating an elevator in a large hardware concern was given a chance to demonstrate his worth in a clerical position. This happened in Fort Wayne. In the same town stock girls and elevator operators have been introduced into a store hitherto employing white girls only. Chicago reports the installation of a Negro manager in one of the 18 branches of a hosiery chain store system, and the addition of 18 greasers in stations of a well-known oil company. In Minneapolis, an industrial chemist has been employed in a lacquer plant, 12 Negroes added to the eight already employed at the local Ford plant and two asphalt sprayers were the first Negroes to be employed by a large contracting firm. The new million dollar Y.W.C.A. building is being served by a crew of colored elevator girls. The usual influx of students to large cities in the north is noted by correspondents in Philadelphia, Newark, and Chicago. Movements of other labor are indicated into Chicago, Detroit, Toledo, and Philadelphia. New labor is not being assimilated rapidly in the first two cities, and both of them report considerable idleness.

White schoolboys are taking the place of elevator girls." Unemployment on the Wane An improved situation is indicated throughout the country as to unskilled and semi-skilled employment. Much of this relief is admittedly due to the seasonal boom in construction and other "outside" work. Thus, Negroes are favored in construction and razing jobs in Des Moines, in road and track labor at Hot Springs, Ark., Charlotte, N.C., and other southern points. Brooklyn reports numbers of Negroes employed in the construction of a new subway; in Pittsburgh coal mines and construction projects have taken up much of the slack in employment; Detroit's city departments have added many colored laborers to their rolls, as has also one large factory; many unskilled and a few skilled men have found work in the building activities at Newark. Business organizations here are emphasizing the necessity of establishing businesses among Negroes by Negroes to offer employment to their group. don't worry a- belyed by man out love affairs. be happy, be luck- draw your love k in love and everything.

KID CHOCOLATE DEFEATS STEVE SMITH IN A HECTIC TEN-ROUND BATTLE LOOKING 'EM OVER WITH AWSON SPORTS EDITOR Crack Cuban Featherweight Defeats Steve Smith in First Chicago Fight Plans for the three water meets to be held at the Francis Swimming Pools are working out quite smoothly. Already, many of the city's best swimmers have signified their intention of being present and taking part in the meets. Wilbur Wallace, last year's high point scorer, is working in Buffalo on the lake steamers, and may attend if possible. Dubois Jones, second highest scorer of last year, has been getting in trim for the meet, and hopes to take first place this year. E. K. Bruce, of last year's team, is showing excellent form. He is working on the corkscrew dive, a very difficult feat, and hopes to surpass Wainwright Beckett, the first to develop the dive here, in the fancy diving finals. The field seems to be open for women, and only a few have registered as yet. Miss Louise Jefferson, "Baby Lou," is working out steadily, and is looking forward to taking several places in the women's finals. Several members of the Number 4 Fire Engine Company have been attending the pools steadily, and many have learned to swim. The entire company will have a chance to learn, and meanwhile they are enjoying the sport. Among those who came out in the first group were Lieutenant R. J. Holmes, Privates J. Carter, J. Stevenson, H. Gaskins, G. O'Brien, and J. Bush. Garnet-Patterson is to be the scene of a tennis tournament within in the next few days. Both singles and doubles are to be played, and there will be a cup awarded CHICAGO, Ill.—Kid Chocolate, crack Cuban Negro featherweight, made his Chicago debut a successful one last Tuesday night, outpointing Steve Smith, of Bridgeport, Conn., in a ten-round bout. Ten thousand fans crowded Mills Stadium to see the elusive "keed" from Cuba slash a sensational rally in the closing round to win the decision of the judges and the referee, but it was Smith, a rough and wild-swinging puncher, who won the applause of the audience. This was Chocolate's second win over Steve, as he had gathered a close decision over him in a bout at Wilkes-Barre, Pa., some time ago. The Kid showed great respect for Smith's wild right, and elected to pile up points with a snaky left hand instead of tearing into the fight at close range. Smith made his best showing the seventh and eighth rounds, when he carried the fight to the Cuban, showering him with rights and lefts to the head. Ringside experts gave Chocolate the margin of six of the rounds. The Cuban came in at 125 pounds, the heaviest of his fighting career. Smith weighed 126. LEWIS VISITS POOLS Among the distinguished visitors at the Francis Swimming Pools last Sunday was Mr. Morris Lewis, secretary to Congressman DePriest, and Mr. Harris, a former Y.M.C.A. director.

In the baseball series at Garnet-Patterson, the Braves, leading last week, dropped to second place, and the Spartan Midgets climbed to first. The Giants and Lightnings have not been doing so well, and stand third and fourth. There is also a class for girls at the playground, where they are taught handicraft and art work. The class is under the direction of Mrs. Nellie Smith, directress of the playground. There are several teams in the district which claim the junior championship of the city. Among these are the Spartans, the Annacostians, and the Willow Trees. It would be a good idea if these teams, along with any others who lay claim to the championship, would write to the sports editor, in order that a series might be arranged to decide the championship. Write now, as the baseball season for sandlot teams is almost over. Since June 8, when the Francis Pools opened, there have been 17,352 persons to take a dip. On last Sunday alone, there were 1,010 who escaped the intense heat of the city by a swim in the pool.

GARNET DEFEATS HOWARD IN MEET The Garnet-Patterson Playground took first place in the Western conference meet held last Monday at the Howard Stadium. The final score was $55\frac{1}{2}$ to $54\frac{1}{2}$. Garnet-Patterson led consistently throughout the meet, and, although Howard took first place in the unlimited relay, the last event on the program, Garnet-Patterson, with its second place, had just enough points to nose out the Howard team. Hager, of Garnet-Patterson, was the high point scorer of the occasion, with 13 points to his credit. Briscoe starred in the one hundred yard unlimited dash, coming in about a yard and one-half ahead of his nearest opponent. The final scores of the meet were Garnet-Patterson, $55\frac{1}{2}$; Howard, $53\frac{1}{2}$; Bruce, $20\frac{1}{2}$; Magruder, $19\frac{1}{2}$; Briggs, 6; Rose Park, 4; and Shaw, $1\frac{1}{2}$. 70-POUND CLASS 50- YARD DASH—Won by Johnson (Mgruder); second, Timus (Rose Park); Williams (Mgruder) and Trent (Howard); third, Jackson (Briggs). **RUNNING BROAD JUMP—Won by Owens (Bruce); second, Cooper (Bruce); third, Jackson (Briggs). 220- YARD RELAY—Won by Bruce (Braxton, Irvins, Woolley, Moxley); second, Howard, Howard; Rab., -fD Howard; third, Rose Park. 85- POUND CLASS 60- YARD DASH—Won by Logan (G.

Billie Edwards To Meet Battling Siki For Championship BLACK SOX WIN DOUBLEHEADER FROM HAWKS SOX WIN FIRST, 11 TO 6, AND CAP NIGHTCAP BY 7 TO 3 Showing a terrific batting punch, the Black Sox won two decisions over the fast Brentwood Hawks, last Sunday, July 28. In the first game, under a big lead, Bland eased up and kept the Hawks' eleven hits scattered, having plenty in reserve when forced to tighten up. Bland also enjoyed a fine day at bat, including a fourply wallop and a double. Ensor went the route and was touched for 14 hits, being no puzzle for the Sox's heavy sluggers. Moten and Smith aided Bland in the attack and kept the outfielders busy throughout the afternoon. Outfielder Ganley was banished from the game for two strenuous objections to a called third strike. The second game proved more interesting, with the outfield of the Hawks and the infield of the Sox sparkling. Maloy allowed three hits and struck out five. Kopp was batted freely, while the Sox could not push a marker over at the expense of Johnson during his stay on the mound. Nickens, who has usually given a brilliant performance at short, had an off day, committing seven miscues, while Wooden was subject to many boos due to his failure to emerge from a batting slump. This has served to dampen the spirits of the fleet footed fielder, and has affected his showing afield. Randolph and King started two fast double plays, the latter showing fine form in blocking a runner at the plate. 3.

Under the guidance of their new manager, "Rock" Matthews, the Spartans were on the long end of a double bill played last Wednesday at Deanwood. The first game proved to be a slugfest, ending with a score of 10 to 1, in the Spartans' favor. The Jones A.C. was on the losing end of the game. The second game was almost as easily captured by a score of 9 to 1, this game also turning out to be somewhat of a slugfest for the Spartans, but not much of anything for the Ajax, their victims. The Spartans displayed true mid-season form in these games, both at bat and afield. By winning these two games they have brought up their string to 24 victories and only four defeats. WIN LIFE SAVERS BADGES Six persons have won the junior life saving buttons and two have won the senior buttons during the last few weeks at the Francis Pools. Those who won junior honors were Estelle Watkins, Lawrence Carter, William Powell, William Jones, Mary Sims, and Martha Smith. The two winning senior buttons were George Robinson and Estelle Watkins.

ANNACOSTIA DEFEATED BY SENIOR TEAM; WIN TWO IN BALTIMORE The Annacostia Juniors lost their fourth game of the season to the Annacostia Seniors last Saturday to the tune of 10-5. The Seniors had to fight hard to win out. They hopped on Irving Queen, star hurler of the smaller crew, for four runs in the first frame. Eddie Berry, ace of the juniors, was called in and held them to four hits and two runs after the third nining. He also struck out nine men. Bill Read, the Senior's ace, went the route, and never seemed to be in very much danger. After their loss of Saturday, the Juniors came back strong Sunday to defeat the Zonta nine, champions of Baltimore, in a twin bill, 11 to 7 and 14 to 11. "Bullet Ball" Simpson started the game, but was relieved in the third in favor of Berry after the Baltimoreans had scored five runs. Berry allowed them four hits and two runs in the last seven innings of the game. He struck out thirteen men, and in the second game, with the score 11 all, he was again called out. He held his foes scoreless and hitless for the remainder of the game, and struck out four men. The Annacostians expect to tackle Ed Whitaker's Manchester team next Sunday at Ivy City.

P. O.'s brought up their string of victories so that now they need only one more victory to clinch honors in the second series of the Departmental League. The game, played last Monday, was a hard fought one, with Bailey and Powel in the box. Bailey outpitched the latter, allowing but three hits, but two walks and a home run by "Toots" Brown in the first inning spelled defeat for him. The Aggies best chance to clinch the victory came in the ninth when with one on and no outs, Bailey hit to left field for a triple. In attempting to stretch the hit into a homer, he was thrown out at home. Aggies H R E G. P. O.

However, the contender, Siki, declares that he will drop the champ in the third and give him the sleeping powder in the fourth. Siki is after that crown. He kayoed two of his sparring mates in a workout here a few nights ago, and is considered as quite dangerous. In the semi-finals, Kid Jap will meet Archie Parnel in a six-round fight. Before the first match, Battling Neal will give a demonstration of rope skipping and shadow boxing. Neal is the flyweight champion of the south. --- 'FROM HEADQUARTERS' AT THE REPUBLIC The latest Vitaphone Talking picture, "From Headquarters," starring Monte Blue, will be the feature attraction at the Republic on Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, August 3, 4, 5, and 6. Guinn Williams, Gladys Brockwell and Henry B. Walthall are in the supporting cast. Blue appears as a soldier of fortune who has lived for many years in the tropics, working for whichever rebels would pay the most money for his services. Eventually he comes in contact with the United States Marines, who have entered the country, and goes through a series of terrible experiences which would try the courage of any man. On Saturday only, episode six of the serial "The House of Terror" will be shown. "Stolen Love," featuring Marceline Day and Owen Moore, will be shown on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, August 7, 8, and 9. It is a picturization of a problem close to the heart of every woman in the world—a problem that can make or break the happiness of every home—solved in a sensational fashion.

Davey Lee, the world's best-loved child, shortly after having passed his fourth birthday, was raised to stardom and "Sonny Boy" is his first starring picture. It has none of the heart-rending tragedy of "The Singing Fool," which caused oceans of tears to be shed over the adorable Davey, and yet its appeal is as great. Davey is so very tiny, his eyes have such an elfin twinkle, and his wink is so captivating, that audiences are in a state of continual "ohs" and "ahs", and their laughter is strangely near the verge of tears. On the screen, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, Tex Guinan in "Queen of the Night Clubs," will be seen and heard. Texas Guinan, star of the picture, is said to be portraying her real life in that picture, the famous night club hostess and the toast of thousands.

In fact, the SSSS started out to find a place to be cool, a place that was hot as amusement places go and yet not so hot as to temperature. Number One on the investigation list was the Suburban Gardens, where men are men and a hot dog is only a hunk of sausage. The Gardens have been investigated thoroughly, with amazing results. Here are a few. When you enter the Gardens, as the common, low, uneducated, ignorant, unintelligent, illiterate population of this burg call them, the first thing you bump into, if you're not drunk, is the Carousal, which is only the dity name for the Merry-go-round or flying horses, depending on how old you are. The carousal is built mainly for persistent, patient, perspiring parents who've brought little Johnny out for a good time. By the time the poor little kid takes one ride on the galloping horses, he's so dizzy he can't see the other rides, and mamma saves anywhere from ten cents to five dollars for that new dress she saw in the window downtown.

Horace could stay on that ride all night, but Dovey just must go on the Tumble Bug, a sort of roller coaster in a circle. This, like the others, is built for Dovey and Harold, for there isn't a way in the world for anybody to stay in unless he grabs the rail around the back of the car, and poor Horace couldn't hang on unless his arm is around Dovey's shoulder, and Dovey's ditto.

One Upset in Beach Election Candidates Name Scratched Off List In Election Booth, Saturday (By Staff Correspondent) Election day at Highland Beach passed devoid of mortalities. The party, in, elected its slate with little opposition. The policies of the past year, no doubt, will be continued. With the exception of Roscoe Evans, the former commissioners were elected. Tally Holmes, last year's treasurer, was elected in Evans' place. Evans, it was claimed, was thrown out by one of those tricks of astute politicians at the Beach. The commissioners had agreed publicly in meeting to put up the same slate including Evans. Evans was so sure that this was on the level that he rested his campaign. Not until 4 o'clock on the day of election was it made known to him that he was to be sacrificed to tighten the ranks of the machine. At that time, he noticed some one had pasted a slip over his name, posted with the commissioner's list at the polls, which he removed. Later on, someone scratched this name in ink and substituted the name of Holmes who was then serving as an election official. Vivid Politics Dr. Washington, clerk of the present body, who was also serving at the polls as official, notified SPANISH LOVE POWDER Are you in love? Only Has your lover left you? Do you feel blue?

Evans that he was ineligible because he did not own property and that he had held office illegally for the entire year. Evans produced his deed to a lot in the town whereupon Washington informed him thathe could not be named on two tickets. Mr. O. T. Taylor, who with Mr. Ware was responsible for the other ticket, told Washington that Dr. Wells was also on both tickets, to which Washington had no answer. The election leaves the people in the most undeveloped part of the town on which little money was spent this year without a representative in the spending of the town's money. The board as now constituted consists of two representatives of the Douglass family and three men who live on one street within a few hundred feet of each other. Rules Ignored Preceding the election, the commissioners sent out a circular announcing a new register of voters and limiting the franchise to those whose names were on the deeds. None would be added after July 15, and these voters must vote in person. Both of these rules were violated. After being assured that certain votes would be given to the commissioners in power, at least two names were added that were not on deeds and voters cast ballots for absent husbands. It has been learned from reliable sources that the present board will have to defend itself and its constituents in the county court this year because of suits involving the rights of citizens that will be entered. HIGHLAND BEACH COM PROTEST BUILDING OF COUNTY ROAD --- Public hearings on a petition for the construction of a county road to Highland Beach, Md., were held in the board room of the county commissioners of Anne Arundel County, at Annapolis, Md. The publication of an article in a Maryland newspaper to the effect that the proposed county road would run through Highland Beach caused several members of the board of commissioners of that town to attend the session to protest against a county road running through the incorporated town. The town commissioners were assured that the county commissioners had no authority to take any action towards taking over the roads of the town except upon specific request of the duly constituted town officials. They stated that the roads within the corporate limits of Highland Beach are considered private roads belonging to the incorporated town and that county officials have no jurisdiction over them. A committee appointed by the county commissioners reported favorably on a road which will follow the present unimproved lane to the corporate limits of Highland Beach. It is understood that the proposed road will run through the properties of Phil Williams, Mrs. Thomas, and the Bay Highlands subdivision. Returned Missionary To Speak At Washington Miss Ruth G. Morris, returned missionary to Africa, will speak on "Africa and the Foreign Mission Field," at the First Baptist Church of Warrenton, Va., at the regular worship hour the coming Sunday evening, August 4. Miss Morris is the daughter of the world famous preacher, Dr. Charles Satchel Morris, and works under the Foreign Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention. She is one of the best prepared missionaries on the field and has accomplished a most remarkable work in Africa. She will sail for Africa to resume her work in the coming January. She will speak at Warrenton under the auspices of the Missionary Circle of the above church, of which Rev. Chas. P. Harris is pastor. Rev. Harris recently returned from his vacation which he spent in the south. Mrs. Ellen Orme Passes Mrs. Ellen Orme, wife of the late Samuel I. Orme, 1762 U street, northwest, passed away, Tuesday morning, at 3 o'clock. She had been ill for the past six weeks, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Roberta O. Robinson, at the above address. She was about 80 years old. Mrs. Orme was one of the members of John Wesley A.M.E. Zion Church when it was located on Connecticut avenue. The funeral was held Thursday, at John Wesley. Mrs. Orme is survived by a daughter, Mrs. R. O. Robinson, a teacher at Lovejoy School; two sons, W. W. Orme, of the police department, and Roscoe Why Pay High Prices?

The votes cast were as follows: Harmonious Relations May be Disturbed Proponents of Private Residential Beach Win Election (By J. E. Washington) Saturday, July 27, 1929, the owners of nearly all of the property in Highland Beach journeyed to the polls to decide the policy of the town for the coming year. Copies of the report of the commissioners having been mailed to each of the tax payers, they were asked to decide with their ballots, the following questions. "Shall Highland Beach remain a private residential community, or shall it become a wide open commercial resort for the general public?" The residents who so overwhelmingly voted for a private residential community, fear that the harmonious relation that has existed between them and their neighbors may be disturbed and that some irresponsible may commit some overt act that may cause Highland Beach to become a blot rather than a credit upon the good name of our people, and, as a consequence, the property owners, some of whom have lived there for over thirty years, will suffer as the innocent did in Queen Annes County only a few weeks ago. Election Peaceful In spite of unfavorable newspaper articles describing the hostile spirit that the different parties manifested toward each other, the election was a most peaceful affair. The judges of the election were: Talley Holmes, Dr. Herbert Scurlock and Mrs. Eula Grey. Dr. J. E. Washington, acted clerk. Valuable assistance was rendered the officials by Richard Ware and Joseph Douglass, candidates, and Albert Taylor, the son of O. T. Taylor. After the ballots were counted and verified by Mr. Ware, Dr. Scurlock and Albert Taylor, they were O.K. with their signatures, and placed in the town clerk's office in case any candidate might desire a recount. Mr. Ware expressed satisfaction to the judges for the manner with which the election was conducted. To Remain Private The answer to the above question was the election of a majority of the past commissioners who had worked so unceasingly with Mayor Douglass to keep the town as a private residential haven, and the treasurer who became the "dark horse" when it was found A Helpfu NO NOTES TO S Opening an ac PLAN is as si ing a simple grocer's.

Rosetta picked it up and threw it back at the police. It began to function and the crowd dispersed, including a dog, near which the bomb landed. Another was thrown in the room and the door closed.

Amended this condition the Negroes must have org city whose sole duty it will be to investigate here is a scintilla of doubt as to the Negro's guilt. As an example of how the Negro suffers from false accusation we quote the following news item which appeared in a Tuesday morning paper here: "HACKER ADMITS FALSE REPORT ABOUT HOLDUP "Inspector William S. Shelby, commander of the Detective Bureau, announced yesterday that John T. Evans, a public hacker, of 308 Q street, northwest, had confessed making a false report of an $11 hold-up and robbery last Friday. "Evans reported that two colored men struck him on the head and took the money from him near the reservoir. After questioning by police of the Thirteenth Precinct, the chief of detectives said, Evans admitted that he falsified the report to cover an $11 shortage in his account with a taxicab company." How often has this been the case even in more serious cases? Take the case of Ben Bess, of South Carolina, who spent 14 years in the penitentiary on the false charge of attempted rape. The woman admitted she lie after 14 long years. Recently in New Orleans, a white girl falsely accused a Negro of attempted rape and a lynching was narrowly averted by the girl's father swearing the girl lied. In St. Louis, a number of crimes were committed by a "big burley Negro," as the papers put it. The "Negro" was caught and when they washed his face he turned out to be a big burley white man, who had escaped prison in Mississippi. Therefore, we do not credit every report we see or hear, charging a Negro with doing this or that. Many of the charges of crime laid to Negroes are false. Many Negroes suffer from these false accusations, first, because the police and law authorities swallow the brazenies of coward perjurers; second, these same law officers work on the theory that every Negro is guilty until proved innocent; third, the low intelligence of the type of Negroes who are usually caught in the meshes of the law on such filiesy tales, makes them easy victims before judge and jury. Because of these conditions, the police department ifftimes take advantage of these poor creatures and fasten upon them as many of the unsolved crimes as they can. This they think gives their departments clear records in the eyes of an unsuspecting public. To remedy this condition the Negroes must have organizations in every large city whose sole duty it will be to investigate every case where there is a scintilla of doubt as to the Negro's guilt.

Five-Year-Old Boy Struck By Auto While Playing In the Street Grave apprehension was held for the recovery of little five-year-old Legovin Mahoney, of 220 R street, northwest, who was struck down by an automobile driven by a Mrs. Gladwell, of 42 R street, northeast, Friday, July 26. The child is said to have been playing in the street in the vicinity of his home, and was not seen by Mrs. Gladwell in time for her to apply the brakes. The car knocked him down, and he was rushed to Freedmen's Hospital by Mrs. Gladwell, where examination showed lacerations to the lips, injury to the mouth and throat, bruises of the arms and knees, internal hemorrhages, and a probable basal fracture of the skull. Unrelaxed vigilence on the part of the physicians is the only thing that is keeping the child alive. His condition is slightly more favorable toward morning than at any other time.

TYPICAL SCENES IN VENICE PART II. THE HOME OF THE HERITAGE CENTER TYPICAL SCENES IN VENICE BEACH.—Photo by Scurlock Venice Beach a Separate Community Why is there so much scrap between the two beaches, Venice Beach an dHighland Beach? One of the anomalies the writer has found in getting her information about the town is the existence of two communities side by side, alike in every physical feature and composed of people of identical social standing, yet failing to unite for mutual protection and solution of common difficulties. Highland Beach and Venice Beach, one plot of 26 acres and the other of 13 acres, were owned in April, 1898, by Joseph Douglass and Georgiana Lane. They, after a short time, agreed to divide. After the death of Georgiana, the taxes mounted high, were offered for sale and bought, along with an option to buy the land, by one Jesse Moorland. Moorland later moved away and sold his holdings in Highland Beach and his option to Mr. Osborn T. Taylor, a retired government clerk. Mr. Taylor arranged to buy the tract, surveyed and subdivided and at this time virtually sold all the lots. He named his sub-division Venice Beach because of the wonderful view of the Bay and lovely Oyster Lake that bounds the length of the beautiful subdivision. His lots were purchased by a most thrifty and educated class. Among the owners are Perry Howard, Mortimer Harris Taylor's daughters, Dwight Holmes, Messrs. Nixon, Milton, Syphax, Tolson, Weir, Chambers, Mimms, Miller Ridgely Goins and a number of others of similar calibre. Beautiful Homes Built Homes sprang up and along the central avenue, and extremely well kept lawns were made to exist. Communication by travel between Highland Beach and Venice Beach was had by paths over numerous vacant lots, and the road leading into Highland Beach ran right through Venice Beach and across the lot of Mrs. Burroughs. Later residents resented the indiscriminate making of paths and trapassing. According to Taylor, he and Douglass entered agreement to open up a 15-foot lane by sacrificing the width of lots in order to make a street between Highland and Venice Beaches in the middle sector of the towns. This made three ways to travel, one at the entrance, one at the Beach, and one just described. Citizens Up In Arms Recently Venice Beach citizens have been up in arms against Mayor Douglass of Highland Beach. Certain citizens allege that Douglass has sought to stigmatize them as undesirable. That his erection of a barbed wire fence was a gratitious insult to their intelligence and pride. One resident predicted the next attempt will be a set of barbed wire entanglements, machine gunnars and entrench- THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE Washington D BEACH al Community Washington Tribune Side by Side, Composed of Social Standing, Yet They Mutual Protection BY CAUSES TROUBLE Association After Accepting Others, Changes Its Consti- Can Be Excluded ments on the Highland Beach frontier. Another prominent citizen of Venice Beach of National fame, said an employee of Douglass, claimed to have been instructed to fence off not alone the beach but the road leading to his house from Highland Beach. At the entrance to the town, Mr. Taylor claims the Highland Beach people have to cross the road on his property at the entrance to get into Highland Beach. Roadway Fight Starts Then trouble started. The com- BEACH.—Photo by Scurlock missioners of Highland Beach evidently believe the town incorporated by the state in the name of the citizens through their commissioners, belong to Douglass for they took no steps to keep him from setting posts and erecting two large timbers for a gateway across the road. This was done to show exclusiveness and ownership. The resident who bought from Douglass the 35-foot lot, from which the 15-foot lane had been carved prior to his purchase, desired this fifteen feet for a porch and complained of the travel by his home. It is alleged by Taylor, an attempt was made to sell this street by Douglass, who claimed it was his property. A committee of Venice Beachers went to the courthouse and observed the new plat of Highland Beach made by Douglass on which he had recorded this pass way. Taylor then warned the resident that although he might purchase, any attempt to prevent use of the street for travel would bring legal action since he had sacrificed parts of two lots in agreement with Douglass to make this lane. The resident refused to buy, wheeupon Douglass had planted a post in the middle of the street, which was promptly removed. Other efforts have recently been made by Douglass to close the street to vehicular traffic under the claim that he meant its use to be only as a walk-way. The commissioners washed their hands of this and say that it is not their affair, but an affair of Douglass'. Open warfare began last winter when Douglass threatened to show Open warfare began last winter when Douglass threatened to show Taylor that he had power to close these lanes, streets, etc. Barbed Wire Fence Erected On July 4, the visitors on the Beach were more than surprised to see a barbed wire fence running across the beach into the Bay on the boundary line. The entire excitement of the day was talk of the fence. On the night of July 4, wire cutting implements, post removers, and presumely citizens of Venice Beach exercised the independence day spirit and like the compatriots of 1776, cut in small pieces the wire, piled up the posts and capped on their work by a sign "K. K. K." Later the same white men doing the work on the beach fence attempted to fence in a lot of an owner over which Venice Beach and Highland Beach people were accustomed to travel. Colored labor about the town refused to engage in the work. Hotelkeeper Ware became so enraged that he joined in the battle against Douglass, whom he claimed was doing this in persecution of him. The posts were hauled to this lot and lauded away. Preventing Intrusion According to newspaper articles, Douglass insisted that he was only trying to solve the problem of protecting the Highland Beach people from intrusion by picnic parties FRIDAY, AUGUST 2, 1929 ALEXANDRIA NOTES Mrs. Ethel Hackley Representative 1010 Wytie Street Phone, Alexandria 1427 PERSONALS Miss Gonzela Quann, of Harrisonburg, Va., is spending the week with Rev. and Mrs. T. N. Austin. Mrs. Isabel Majors has been spending some time in Richmond. Mrs. Lillian Holland, of 825 Queen street, is visiting in Toledo, Ohio. Mrs. Julia Pritchett, supervisor of Parker-Gray playground, and teacher at Parker-Gray school, is attending summer sessions at Petersburg State Normal School. Mrs. William Fultz, who was a patient at Gallinger Hospital, is home again. She is much improved. A surprise was tendered Mr. Roden Williams, vice-president of the Deacons Union of Alexandria, by the union, Wednesday, July 31. Mr. Williams has just recovered from a very severe illness. Rev. F. E. Hearnes, pastor of Shiloh Baptist Church, began his vacation, August 1. At the 8 p.m., service, Sunday, July 28, the members presented him with a vacation and strangers who entered Highland Beach by way of Venice Beach. The commissioners of the town who are elected to govern the town deny that they sympathize with Douglass or that they have any power to interfere with these attempts. Picnic parties and control of visitors is evidently to them the business of Douglass as private owner although he is chairman of the commission board. Citizens of Venice Beach deny these excuses. They state that these are not facts. They have only one street leading to their beach and no parking is allowed, and their beach is denied to picnickers. It is their claim that there is a studied effort on the part of a small but influential bunch in Highland Beach to consider them of inferior mold. Some say the entire issue was raised when a small piece of ground, 15 x 150 feet, was not allowed to become pocket change for Douglass. Taylor says that he gave up the part of the price of two lots to open this lane for the convenience of people of the two communities and that his citizens are behind him and so are most of the Highland Beach citizens in this attempt to prevent the sale of a platted and thereby public roadway or walkway as it may be termed. Solution in Merging The only solution to this question is that of incorporation of the two resorts as one. The benefits will be mutual. Any water system, sewerage, lighting, telephone, fire protection, police control, and social welfare will be fostered by a breaking down of the attitude or power of a foolish little clique. The citizens of Highland Beach are far too intelligent and too cultured to do anything else but insist that their representatives of some years election take steps to encourage joint incorporation. The post office of Highland Beach receives part of its importance due to Venice Beach mail. A committee consisting of Messrs. Nixon, Syphax and Taylor, of Venice Beach, has been selected to consider incorporation with Highland Beach. Actually but two people have been active in stirring up sentiment within Highland Beach that has kept the community sense apathetic on this and other civic interests. The pride of the two families in the development of the place and the maintenance of traditional names is but a feeble reason for failure to recognize that the plot of ground containing both communities and bounded by two lakes and the bay and inhabited by a social entity should be under one government, a united community. There should be no imaginary line of cleavage, and the common sense in the town now lulled into apathy by a few willful men and women should soon emerge and assert itself when it finds how puerile are the influences that keep these two communities separate. Venice Beachers Excluded Two years ago a community association comprised citizens of Venice Beach and Highland Beach and jointly they worked for mutual interests. Last year, the Highland Beach Citizens' Association changed its constitution to limit membership to citizens of Highland Beach, although the people of Venice Beach have contributed much money to the roads jointly used and to the $500 fund collected for building a pavilion on the beach of either Highland or Venice Beach. No effort has been made to return to Venice Beach any proportion of this sum. The attempt of the commissioners of several years ago to effect a union of the two Beaches to meet the many perplexing situations that are bound to arise and be of mutual concern came to naught when back door logic coupled with falsehoods aroused unfavorable sentiment. They, however, left the thought to the people and predicted its eventuality when the intelligence of the people becomes active. In all of this there is the proverbial hidden cause. When will it be ferreted out? When will the unselfish community sense be awakened? Some say colored people are yet too good Christians to strive over the temporal things of Caesar's.

GIRLS ENJOY STUNT NIGHT; HIKE TO ANNAPOLIS Girls spending part of the summer at Camp Clarissa Scott, the Y.W.C.A. camp at Highland Beach, Md., are having the time of their lives. The camp program included many interesting and thrilling things to do, such as hiking to Annapolis, a peanut party, and a weekly stunt night. The hike to Annapolis was long and tiresome for most of the girls, although they all enjoyed it. The ten cent stores were raided for candy, cakes, small needed articles, and books such as "The Ghost of Downhill." The girls returned to the camp in the Y.W.C.A. truck. The stunt night was one of the features of the week, with Thelma King, clad in white ducks, shirt, and sailor cap, starring. Three tap dances were on the program, the first being Thelma King; second, Phyllis Bailey; and third, Etta Mae Wall. Carol Harris contributed an esthetic dance, Equilla Codgell, a song, and Laura Lee acted as a fortune teller. A play. "The truth about the Sleeping Beauty," directed by Carol Harris, was exceedingly good. In the peanut party, Carol Harris found the largest number of peanuts, and Laura Lee's doll won first place. A peanut match concluded the party. During your vacation, read as many good books as you can. A book of note is "Skippy," by Percy Crosby. This dauntless little unchin first saw the light in 1923, in a page cartoon in Life. He was such a favorite at once that his inventor turned him into a comic strip that ran in many newspapers for years. Now this talented artist has given us the boy in a novel. Into the long procession where march Tom Sawyer, Huck Finn, Penrod, the little ones of Riley, the boys from Irvin Cobb's "Goin' On Fourteen," steps Skippy, the doughy, and Sooky—poor little soul, whose short life had to be one of make-believe or he could not have borne it. Rich humor you will find here, and pathos, too—as anyone finds who looks below the brave, outward-seeming of childhood.
