EDWARDS WEDDING MAKES HEFLIN'S BLOOD BOIL Marriage of Phil Edwards to White Girl Subject of Senate Tirade The marriage last fall of Phil Edwards, New York University track star, to a white girl came in for a tirade from the Senatorial demagogue, Thomas J. Heflin (Dem.) of Alabama, when he entered in discussion of the matter with Senator Copeland, of New York, Thursday. The discussion was the outgrowth of a letter that the Senator from Alabama had read into the record in which he flayed the governor and state officials of New York for their failure to prevent the ceremony which he branded as a humiliating and dangerous thing. Mr. Copeland took exception to the reflection on his state and demanded that Heflin retract his statements. The Letter The letter written by Heflin follows: "Washington, D.C. October 15, 1929. "Mr. Sam H. Reading. "My dear Sir: In reply to your request I will say that I have read with a feeling of sadness and indignation the newspaper account of the humiliated and grief-striken white father and mother in New York City who could get no assistance from either Governor Roosevelt or Mayor Walker or any- (Continued on page no. 2) Three Wives, No Divorce Sends Man to Jail PITTSBURGH—Thrice married but divorced not once, Earl A. Smith of Homestead, is meditating today over the wreckage of his marital barks, which resulted, it is alleged, from the fact that he boasted, not wisely and too often. Smith was bound over in $1,000 bail, and upon his failure to produce bond, was committed to the county jail. Smith not only had any respect for color, but is said to have boasted of his marriages, the last two with white women. 14-YEAR-OLD GIRL SAYS MAN LEFT HER BABE TO DIE Child Led Life of Terror In Home With Unnatural Father How her own stepfather forced her to submit to his base desires and then left her ten-day-old baby on a doorstep to freeze, to death was related to Judge McMahon in police court by a 14-year-old girl whose name the Tribune withholds because of her age. Tuesday. The little girl, small for her age, sobbed her story in a wee voice so low that the judge had to leave the bench and sit close to the witness stand in order to hear her pitiful and revolting testimony which was not audible to those who strained their ears in the court room. Mother Learned of Plight The child related how her sten- father, who married her mother, Mrs. Ida Barbour when the tiny tim was but two years of age, look advantage of her during the essence of her mother, threatening if she revealed the horrible se- cret to his wife. Time after time abused her, she declared, mak- her life a terror. The truth came to light, however, when the child showed signs that she was about to become a mother. It was only after long persuasion that the identity of the father was divulged. The secret was obtained when the child was placed in the maternity ward at Freedmen's Hospital two weeks Abandons Baby Not satisfied with his already honious crime, John W. Barbour, 42 the accused, committed another cruel and unnatural offense when he took the ten-day-old child from his home and carried it off, refusing to tell the child mother or his wife what he had done with the wail. Buries Own, Finds Another This secret was also brought to light when fate again intervened and James Covington, of 687 Morton street, opened his front door early Monday morning to find a tiny boy babe nearly frozen to death on his door step where it had been left for many hours during the night. Covington was just lamenting the death of his own 18-months-old babe whom he had buried a few days previously. He carried the child to the police precinct where a city-wide search for the parents resulted in bringing the two crimes attributed to Barbour to light. When arraigned Barbour looked frantically about the court room for legal aid, but none of the half dozen lawyers seated in the room would come to his aid. On the abandonment charge he denied that he had abandoned the child, but declared that he had given it to an unknown girl to hold at the corner of Capitol street, for which he gave her 75 cents. He admitted that he had no intentions of returning. Police think that he placed the child on the doorstep himself. He was held in $3,000 bond on two charges. RACE MAN SEEKS DYER'S SEAT ST. LOUIS—In a statement to newspapers last Thursday, Walt-hall M. Moore, three times elected to the state assembly from this city, stated that he would respond to the urging of friends and enter the race for congress from the Twelfth congressional district. He will seek to get the nomination on the republican ticket. Rep. L. C. Dyer is the present representative in congress. Loses Time On Job; Tries Suicide DYERSBURG, Tenn. (ANP)—Because he was losing so much time from his job on account of illness, Bert Kenne, a fifty-year-old man, attempted to take his own life here Tuesday afternoon by cutting his throat. Keene was found by his wife a few minutes after he had slashed his throat and was rushed to the local hospital, where it was stated that his condition was critical due to the loss of blood. Washington Tribune DOCTOR APPEALS TEA ROOM SUIT, WIFE TO PAY Eight Errors Cited By Defendant In Seeking New Trial Procedure toward an appeal in the Curtis-Fitzhugh case was begun last Thursday when Charles H. Houston, attorney for Dr. Arthur L. Curtis, filed a motion on behalf of his client to set aside the verdict of the jury for a new trial. A similar motion was not filed in the case of Mrs. Helen Gordon Curtis, wife of Dr. Curtis, which indicates that there will be no further action in her case and that the judgment against her will be paid. The jury on February 4 returned a verdict against Dr. Curtis and in favor of Miss Eva Fitzhugh, "the tea room girl," of 1816 L. St., northwest, for damages of $5,000 on account of two alleged assaults on May 8 and one alleged assault on July 7, 1927. At the same time a verdict awarding Miss Fitzhugh. damages of $350 against Mrs. Curtis was also returned. Cite Eight Errors In his motion for a new trial, Mr. Houston assigns eight reasons why the verdict against Dr. Curtis should be set aside and a new trial granted in his case. They are, as stated by Mr. Houston, as follows: first, error of law in receipt of evidence offered by the plaintiff; second, error of law in the exclusion of evidence offered by defendant; third, the court erred in granting instructions asked by plaintiff; fourth, the court erred in refusing instructions asked by the defendant; fifth, the court erred in its general charge to the jury; sixth, the verdict is against the evidence and contrary to the evidence; seventh, other errors apparent of record; eighth, the verdict is excessive. May Argue Friday If Austin F. Canfield, attorney for Miss Fitzhugh, is ready, the motion for setting aside the verdict and granting a new trial will be argued before Justice Frederick L. Siddons, before whom the case was tried, next Friday. MORGAN WINS NEW YORK—Morgan College defeated Howard here Wednesday by a 47 to 32 score ALL WHITE BODY IS NAMED TO STUDY HAITIAN AFFAIRS R.R. Moton Named to make Separate Investigation of Education Disregarding requests for the appointment of one colored person at least to membership on the Haitian coralism, President Hoover last Friday named five members of the commission that is to investigate conditions in Haiti with a view to working out a new and definite policy toward that republic. William Cameron Forbes, a merchant, of Boston, was named as chairman of the commission. Mr. Forbes has had wide experience in insular affairs. He was a member of the Philippine commission and secretary of commerce and police in the government of the Philippine Islands from 1904 to 1908. He served as vice governor of the Philippine Islands from July 1, 1908 to November 10, 1909, and as governor general from November 11, 1909 to September 1, 1913.

"Associated Negro Press Re- What Statesmen Think of The Negro 60 Years Later As the Nation prepared to pay homage to the memory of Abraham Lincoln, the great emancipator and Frederick Douglass, the great abolitionist, present day statesmen uttered the herein printed statements on the floor of the Senate Friday. SENATOR DAVID I. WALSH (Democrat, Massachusetts) He declared that "In every State and private university and in every public school in America, except in the Southern States, colored children are received on an equal basis with white children. Every Protestant church in New England, in New York, in Wisconsin, in California, and in nearly all of North receive on an equal basis公 public worship of God.

The sooner we forget sectionalism and religious prejudice and race hatred the better for our Government and for the progress of humanity. But if we do not do it, if we do not forget, but keep constantly agitating it and pressing it and urging it, I fear very much for the security of our beloved institutions in time to come. SENATOR ROYAJ, S. COPELAND (Democrat, New York) "We are striving as best we can to make good citizens of our people, of all colors and all races and all religions, who have chosen to live in New York City. It is not true, no matter who says it, that those in authority in my State and in my city have connived in or winked at any violation of those conventions which all civilization has come to recognize as important." SENATOR THOMAS J. HELLIN (Democrat, Alabama) "Whenever a Negro crosses this dead line between the white and the Negro race and lays his black hand on a white woman, he deserves to die. The great white race is the climax and crowning glory of God's creation." TAXI BANDITS IN NORTHWEST HOLD UP THREE DRIVERS One Bound and Left In Woods While Two Others are Robbed by Men Wilbur A. Jordan, 733 Girard street, northwest, is back on the joi this week after suffering a harrowing experience with three white bandits who held up a Capital Traction street car and robbed the motorman of $1,493 early Monday morning at Chevy Chase, Md. Jordan who is employed by the United Car Company, 601 Third street, southeast, told police that two men hired his cab about 4:30 a.m. the morning of the robbery and told him to drive to Chevy Chase circle. When he reached the destination the men put a gun in his chest and told him he was under their command. George W. Littisaw, 1143 Fifth street, northwest, reported to police Monday that two men hired him at Fifth and Florida avenue and when he had driven them to Sixth and Fairmont streets, northwest the men pushed a gun in his face and robbed him of $5.00.

Burroughs, returned to the city Thursday after a trip to Boston and other New England Cities. While in Boston, Miss Burrough was the principal speaker before the Ford Hall Public Forum last Sunday night. Miss Burroughs was the first Negro woman invited to speak before this famous forum. She spoke from the subject: "High Cost of Jim Crow Civilization." The Ford Hall Forum is one the oldest forums in the country. It was organized in 1908. The forum meets every Sunday night from September to May. Four other Negroes have spoken before the forum. They were: James Weldon Johnson, Dr. Mordecai Johnson, Alain Leroy Locke and William Pickens. The speaker is allotted forty minutes in which to answer questions from the floor about points brought out in the speech. Miss Burroughs was accorded an ovation at the end of her speech that has been seldom equaled in the history of the forum. So pleased were the promoters of the Ford Hall Forum with Miss Burroughs' appearance, that she was invited to appear before the forum next year. The "High Cost of Jim Crow Civilization" was presented in Miss Burroughs' usual free and frank style.

BLAMES TAFT FOR REPUBLICAN PARTY CHANGE "The Republican party, under Taft began the nullification of the 15th Amendment," Major John R. Lynch told an audience of 4,500 at Washington Auditorium, Monday night, declaring that at that time the party took a retrogrative position on all questions involving the civil and political rights of the colored race. "In other words," he declared, "the policy thus announced and inaugurated and has not since been fully repudiated, was one of acquiescence in the nullification of the fifteenth amendment and the elimination of the colored race as a political factor in any state which may see fit to take that action. Since that time colored voters have been compelled, in all elections, to choose between what they considered the least of two evils. In doing so the colored voter is forced to a recognition of the fact that in the Republican party, even under its present policies, he Three Women, One Girl Are Overcome By Coal Gas Three women and one girl were overcome by gas in the northwest section, Saturday from a basement furnace.

She and her husband, James Henderson, 28, are being held under guard at the Freedmen's Hospital charged with assault upon Officer M. Hughes of the No. 2 Precinct who was also shot in the melee. Henderson is suffering with gunshot wounds of the stomach and is not expected to live. In Ugly Mood According to the story told the Tribune by the Henderson sons they were in their establishment when the officers entered and began to round up the patrons without giving the cause of the raid. When Henderson remonstrated the raiders proved to be in an ugly mood and began to curse violently and did not divulge the fact that they had a warrant for the search of the place for possible liquor. Shooting Ensues Some of the patrons resented the attitude and the names applied to them and resisted. A free for all fight broke out during which the officers drew their revolvers and began to shoot with abandon. The fire was returned and the officer was shot. Henderson and his wife fere also wounded. Health Clinics In Arlington Schools Health clinics conducted by Dr. Roscoe C.

MILK AND ITS USES IN THE HOME MILK AND ITS USES IN THE HOME Prepared by the Bureau of Home Economics, with the cooperation of the Bureau of Dairy Industry, U.S. Agriculture Department. Milk and cream together, either by themselves or in combination with other foodstuffs, make up about one-sixth by weight of all the food eaten by the average American family. Milk supplies in particularly convenient and usable form materials that children need if they are to develop strong, normal bodies; and it is a valuable food for adults, especially when it is combined with such foods a scereals and green vegetables. Almost all the milk and dairy products in this country, and in most other civilized countries where the climate is favorable, come from the cow. Cow's milk is no better than that of some other animals, but people are used to its taste, the cows make a good return for the feed and care which they receive. In parts of the world where cows do not thrive, other milk animals have proved satisfactory. Goat's milk, for example, is common in the rough, hilly districts of Europe, in Central America, and even in some parts of the United States. Buffalo's milk is much used in India, and lama's milk in South America. Camel's milk is well liked in desert countries, and mare's milk on the steppes of Russia and in Central Asia. Sheep's milk is used in Europe and elsewhere for mak- HOT CAKES AND HOT BISCUITS ALWAYS AT THEIR BEST WHEN SERVED WITH Real Alaga Cane Syrup The number of our readers learning of the "JOY" that comes from using Real ALAGA Cane Syrup with Hot Cakes and Hot Biscuits is ever increasing. They have also learned that Candy, Pumpkin Pies, Cookies, etc., "fit for a King," are made with ALAGA Cane Syrup. Regular shipments are now being received in Washington, right from where the Sugar Cane grows, to meet the rapidly increasing demand. ALAGA Cane Syrup is the entire juice of the Sugar Cane plant boiled down to syrup, with nothing added, except a very small portion of corn syrup to prevent sugaring in the can. Yes! It is higher than ordinary syrups, but not half as expensive as maple syrup; whereas it is among the choicest of table and fancy baking syrups. Nevertheless, it has a flavor all its own. Ask your grocery for the Real ALAGA Cane Syrup. If he does not have it the following stores can supply you till his shipment arrives: M. Rubenstein, 1100 3rd St. N.E. A. Silverman 913 St. N.W. J.

Composition and Food Value Of Milk The milk ordinarily sold for household use varies in composition, principally because of differences between the breeds of cows and individuals of the same breed. On the average, however, milk contains 87 per cent water and 13 per cent solids, consisting of proteins, fat, sugar, and a variety of mineral substances. Because of the natural variation, most creameries now test all the milk they buy and pay for it on the basis of fat content. For the same reason dairymen who supply the retail trade usually find it best to mix the milk from a herd of cows immediately after it is drawn. In this way the content of the milk is kept more uniform from day to day, which is a decided advantage to the consumer. Unprincipled producers or dealers sometimes adulterate their milk, greatly changing its composition. Legislation and Federal, State, and Municipal inspection, however, are making it more difficult to defraud the consumer in this way. The chief methods of adulteration are the addition of water, the removal of part of the fat, and the use of chemical preservatives, the first two of these methods often being used together. These practices not only are fraudulent as regards money value, but they also diminish the food value. Milk is slightly heavier than water, its specific gravity varying with the proportion of water, fat, and other substances. The specific gravity of milk is sometimes used as a test of its purity, but since removing part of the fat raises and adding water lowers the specific gravity, one form of adulteration may ver up the other and thus renuer this test alone unreliable. Effect Of Cooking Cooking affects the digestibility and food value of milk in some respects, changes the appearance and flavor slightly, and also destroys bacteria. The curd of boiled milk is finer and more easily acted on by the digestive organs than that of either raw or pasteurized milk, though it is commonly said to be more constipating. Part of the calcium is thrown out or precipitated. The fat globules also are somewhat altered, and cooked milk fat may be slightly less easily emulsified than the raw. The food value of the sugar in milk is not changed by ordinary cooking. Vitamin C is very easily affected by cooking, in fact, even by the ordinary aging of milk. When boiled or pasteurized milk or milk powder is used to feed infants, it is safer to give with it orange or tomato juice, and some physicians hold that this is a wise precaution even with raw milk. Vitamins A and B seem to be less easily affected by cooking. The film, or "skin" composed of protein and fat, that forms on milk, especially when cooked in an open vessel, is the most noticeable change in appearance, unless the heat is intense enough to caramelize some of the sugar. In this case the milk becomes brownish in color. The peculiar odor and flavor of freshly boiled milk seem to be partly due to changes in the protein. Milk For Enfants That the best food for an infant is milk from a strong, healthy woman is admitted by everyone. When this is not obtainable, the substitute resembles it the better. Cow's milk is the most common substitute and when necessary may BRANDLEY'S SHREDDED CODFISH J.W. BRANDLEY & CO.

Such milk justly commands a higher price than that of which the quality is not guaranteed. Certified milk should not be confused with so-called "sanitary" or "special" milk. These are terms applied somewhat loosely to milk produced and handled under conditions considered necessary to assure a pure, wholesome product, but they are sometimes applied by dealers, for purposes of advertising to milk produced under decidedly unsanitary conditions.

Goat's milk, too, is in some cases recommended for infants. Cow's milk contains more protein, less sugar, and slightly more fat than woman's milk, and the fat globules are larger. Also it is said to form a tougher curd. Fortunately, most healthy babies thrive on good cow's milk on cow's milk simply modified. It is the sickly who require special preparations, and their needs vary so greatly that only the physician familiar with the case, and not always he, can say what change is necessary. There are laboratories in many large cities and towns where modified milk of all sorts can be procured on prescription. The milk for babies should be the purest obtainable, and should be cared for scrupulously after it is delivered. In fact, it is usually more important that the milk for babies should be pure that that it should be especially rich, for the fat in very creamy milk may cause difficulty in digestion. Since raw milk may contain harmful bacteria, Pasteurized milk is often considered safer for babies. As a result of the demand for milk of unquestioned purity for children, certified milk may be obtained in many towns and cities.

Every day newspapers carry accounts of games won and lost by two or three points. If some player in the game had made his allotted number of foul goals, his team would have been the winner. It is a rather difficult task to stand before a howling mob and toss in a free throw, but players find themselves many times in a game faced with this job and steady nerves invariably win out. Howard was defeated by Lincoln and West Virginia by a one-point margin. If the Burrmen had come thru with 50 per cent of their gift points the score would have been in their favor, in both games. Harris Leads. Captain Van Harris, of Howard, leads his team in percentage of free fouls made. Out of 21 tries he came thru with 16 which is an excellent average.

VA.—Neither height nor speed, substitution nor exhortation were of avail last Saturday as the rangy and capable Lincoln quint was convincingly licked by the Hampton Seasiders, 25 to 15. Only once did the Oxford lads lead the scoring which was in the first nine minutes of play and despite Coach Taylor's continual hope, his team came out on the small end of the score. After Captain Cy Taylor entered and peppered his men with bullet-like passes and dribbed through and around the Lincoln defense, he pushed and pulled his boys to a lead, causing the Lions to take counsel with Hampton two points ahead. Lincoln made two substitutions and tried to regain her lead and the next eight minutes witnessed a genuine mixup. "Monk" McGowan, Hampton guard, displayed some brilliant defensive work, breaking up dribbles and turning them to his own advantage. Between Taylor and McGowan the goals were locked and the half time whistle sounded on a 15-10 score. 18 Lincoln U. Gridders Are Awarded Coveted "L." LINCOLN UNIV.

SPORT REVIEW Washington Tribune HUNDREDS PACK "GYM" AS BATTLE GETS UNDER WAY The Armstrong Senior high school gymnasium is packed to the doors this afternoon and hundreds more are trying to get in to witness the annual battle between Dunbar and Armstrong in their opening game in the city basketball championship series and forst Inter-State High School Conference tilt. Both teams are on edge and the fans expect one of the greatest contests in the history of high school circles. Armstrong is favored to win by at least seven points, but the Perkimmen are a stubborn bunch of lads and they intend to make the Technen fight for every point. Line Up Doubtful Coach Westmoreland has not decided on the first squad to take the court, but close followers of the two teams believe that the Armstrong mentor will take no chances and put his best gunners on the firing line first. With a substantial lead he will no doubt gradually send in substitutes until the going gets close then he will rush his stars back on the front line again. He has a squad of 16 men ready to take the place of any man that shows weakness under pressure. As a rule Coach Westmoreland generally starts off with his second team to get the lay of the land and send in reinforcements as the situation demands. Dunbar Out To Win He may and yet he may not follow this policy. Coach Perkins, of the Poets, will take advantage of every loophole. Nothing would please him more than for Armstrong to start a poor team. His men will be instructed to pile up a healthy lead in the early period and play a semi-freezing game the rest of the time. The Dunbar mentor is out to wi The Dunbar mentor is out to win and no experiments will be tried. He will put his best team in at the start and keep them there until he deems it wise to make a change. Of course, other things will have to be taken under consideration as the game progresses. No doubt the starting men on both teams will be as follows: Probable line up. Armstrong Dunbar Wallace Forward Parker Wormley Forward Howard Dunlap Center Free Morris Guard Minns Dale Guard Gregory Tech Has Plenty Reserve Armstrong will have a formidable supply of reserve power in Merriwcather, Carter, Lee, Poulson, forwards; Bruce, Gregg, Jackson, guards; Corbin, Tate, centers. Dunbar will have such men as Mathews, Daniels, Green, forwards; Bland, forward; Parker and Pree, who will alternate in center. The two teams will meet again on February 24. Cardozo and Dunbar will meet in their second tilt on February 28 and Armstrong and Cardozo will lock horns on February 21 and again on March Howard Left Out of 1930 Wilberforce Schedule WILBERFORCE, OHIO—Wilberforce gridders have left Howard out of their schedule for 1930.

For that reason I have he other cities say they would never pl possible to get an even "break" or i Nothing can damage sport contests more than poor arbitrators. The tendency to favor home teams has done more to injure sports here than any other single factor, I believe. This column suggests to the Eastern Board of Officials that some sort of a rule be enforced that would eliminate one-sided refereeing on the part of umpires, referees and other officials in games. I understand that certain men are selected here and others are barred from "working" games because certain team managers claim several of the umpires or officials are "hard" on their team, and give the visitors the "breaks." A manager that bars an official for such a cause ought to have his team outlawed from competition, and the official who works under a condition of this sort ought to be boycotted. Several Washington officials have the reputation all over the country as "rotten." For that reason I have heard managers of teams in other cities say they would never play here as it would be impossible to get an even "break" or beat the team and referee. FAVORITISM SHOWN hard local fans hiss officials here for not favored the home team. Everybody shows favoritism. Although the host leave with a sense of having been on official thinks only of his pay, and of the managers he thinks it is to helpers. Last week that when two baskets the duty of timers and scorers to cheer point scored. A near riot took recently when the timers failed to a means the winning or losing of a sentent boys are placed over the timers are more intent on seeing the pair duties. I have seen men keep or seen a stop watch or score book. I have heard local fans hiss officials here for high handed decisions that favored the home team. Everybory scorns a referee that shows favoritism. Although the home team may win, the fans leave with a sense of having been cheated by the referee. The official thinks only of his pay, and to keep in the good graces of the managers he thinks it is to his interest to favor his employers. I suggested last week that when two basketball teams are playing it is the duty of timers and scorers to check every "time out" and every point scored. A near riot took place in the Howard gym recently when the timers failed to agree. A second at times means the winning or losing of a game. Quite often incompetent boys are placed over the time or score and these youngsters are more intent on seeing the game than attending to their duties. I have seen men keep score or time who had never seen a stop watch or score book.

In fact it appears that there will be no league this spring. Several meetings have been called, but none held so far. I understand that Ed Bolden, owner of the Hildale club, is planning to withdraw from competition in the loop and start an outlaw team. Bolden has been the moving spirit in organized baseball in the East since the league started. The Lincoln Giants, of New York, have been the bone of contention for some years. James Keenan, the New York owner, has been at dagger points with other members of the league for several years. Some owners claim that the Lincoln boss has attempted to dominate the league and left when he found he could not have his way. The Brooklyn Royals pulled out last year, which cut the league membership to six teams. Failure of teams to play schedule games has caused dissatisfaction among fans, and as a result attendance has been cut. Owners claim they can make more money by playing independent clubs.

Far seeing owners realized that league competition was the only solution to the problem. So the American Negro league was formed last year. Even in this new organization the schedule was not adhered to. Now it is claimed that Bolden is ready to quit. The National Negro League in the west held a meeting recently, and it appears on the surface that this loop will make an attempt to carry on this season. Here in the East fans and players are at a loss as to what the outcome of it all will be. A movement was made last fall to secure a franchise for this city. The movement died aborning. Ben Taylor, former manager of the Washington Potomac, was approached and asked to handle the local entry. Taylor was willing, but for some reason nothing definite ever was reached. As I see it the American Negro League is doomed unless all hands can reach a working agreement and plans perfected for the season. CARTER GETS HIS CHANCE Smiling Billy Carter, the Washington Man O' War, will get the acid test in Baltimore, Tuesday night, when the local battler tosses gloves with Tiger Thomas, a sparing partner of George Godfrey. Billy Carter, the Washington Man O' War in Baltimore, Tuesday night, when he with Tiger Thomas, a sparing parade and Thomas will hit the deck in the court the New Albert. Thomas fought go in the Monumental City and McVeigh was listed to fight McVeigh, but the nation said the Washington boy would first, although Carter and Thomas for and draw in Richmond, Va. Many rins Carter and Thomas will hit the deck in the 10-round main attraction at the New Albert. Thomas fought Jack FeVey two weeks ago in the Monumental City and McVey won a slow bout. Carter was listed to fight McVey, but the Maryland Boxing Commission said the Washington boy would have to get a reputation first, although Carter and Thomas fought some time ago a 10-round draw in Richmond, Va. Many ringside fans said Carter was the winner of this bout. So the Commission has sanctioned the Carter-Thomas bout, and if the Washington man can hurdle the Tiger he will be given a shot at McVey within two weeks. "Ze Billy will keel ze Tigerire," said Carter's manager, who is a native of that dear Pareez. M. O. Guerly swears by his Man 'O War and when Carter is the subject M. Guerly will talk for hours about the local leather pusher, but only a Frenchman can understand him as he will speak two words in English and a dozen or so in French. This language of ours fails to do Carter justice, according to M. Guerly. There are not enough adjectives in it and besides only French can describe the terrible cyclone that will tear the Tiger into little pieces and throw the bits into the faces of the audience. BASKETBALL Armstrong and Dunbar will play the first game of their championship series Armstrong Friday evening. The Techmen lost their first game of the season on Monday, when they dropped a 28 to 24 game to the Community Five, a team composed of veteran basketball players. Dunbar is leading the South Atlantic High School Athletic Conference having won three games without a single loss. The Poets may meet a set-back today when they lock horns with Armstrong. Charlie Evans, of Cardozo, has been playing a great game this year, altho he made an error by caging a basket in the Phelps game for his opponents. Wallace, Wormley and Morrsi, players on Armstrong are all star football players on their team. Wallace has been voted the best all-round player in high school circles. "Sallie" Hall, Howard University star, was given the razzberry in Lawrenceville, Va., last week by the St. Paul rooters. They yelled "Sallie of my dreams" at the Howard ace. Referee Cupid said the game was not over when Howard and Lincoln played here the other week. Then Cupid said it was over and awarded Howard an "extra" point. When there is a dispute about time, one timer claiming one thing and another timer saying something else, the referee generally takes the time of both men and splits it in half while the referee holds the watch. This saves a lot of trouble and a possible fight. Hall and Williams is about the best forward combination Howard has had in a long time. Coach Burr, of Howard is making plans for a championship soccer team on the hill this spring. Games are being scheduled with several leading white colleges. Cardozo has one.of the best high school teams in the city on "paper." The Clerks have height, ability and have been playing as long as most men on other high school teams, but for some reason the Cardozo lads fail to hit their proper stride on the boards. Miner Normal won from Dunbar last week. The Normal lads at the beginning of the season said they would bar high school teams. JONES Vs. KETCHELL SAN FRANCISCO.—Gorilla Jones, Akron, Ohio, welterweight, has been matched to fight Wesley Ketchell, white, in a 10-round bout here Friday night. GANS Vs. HYBERT NEW YORK—Baby Joe Gans Los Angeles welterweight, will meet Floyd Hybert, white, of Cleveland, in a 10-round bout here February 17. Booker T. Washington, J., was captain of the Fisk University football team that defeated the Tigers on Washington Field in the year 1910. The score was 6 to 0.

PAUL TIGER BOW TO HOWARD PETERSBURG, VA.—Snapping out of a two-game slump in which they lost by one point to West Virginia and Lincoln, Howard University defeated Virginia State here Friday night with a score of 29-16. The fast floor work of Hall and Harris, with the accurate shooting of Williams, Beasley, and Taylor, enabled the Bisons to romp away to an easy victory. In defeating Hampton on January 25, Howard and Virginia State tied for the lead in the C. I. A. A. series. Since that time, and before tonight's game, both teams had lost one game. The defeat of Virginia State leaves Howard to reckon with Lincoln in their next encounter which will be in New York on Lincoln's birthday. Lineup and summaries: Beats St. Paul LAWRENCEVILLE, VA.—The Howard University Bisons walloped the St. Paul tigers here Saturday night by a score of 29 to 21. Howard was leading at half time, 12 to 9. St. Paul took the lead in the last stanza. But this advantage was shortlived as the Bisons started a romp that carried them to victory. Smith tallied the field goal input Howard in the lead 23 to 21 From then on the Washington clan marched thru all opposition. Lineup and summaries: Hampton, 34; St. Paul, 24 By TOWNSEND G. LOWE LAWRENCEVILLE, VA.—With Wells and Hughes playing a great game both on the offense and defense, for the St. Paul boys it was suspected that the final whistle would mark victory for the Lawrenceville tossers. Even at half time the score ended 14-14; but Hampton's rangy combination came back in the final period to drop ball after ball in the loop and win by a 34-24 score. PEERLESS BEATEN BALTIMORE. — The Baltimore Athenians defeated the Peerless club, of Philadelphia, here Friday on the court of the New Albert Auditorium by a 35 to 29 decision. TWO TEAMS LEFT IN DEADLOCK FOR SECOND POSITION Howard University basketball team by defeating Union University Tuesday night broke a triple tie in the C.I.A.A. league race. Before the Bisons sent the Virginia boys scampering back to Richmond under a stinging licking the standing of the three leaders was as follows: School Games Won Lost Howard 6 5 1 Hampton 6 5 1 Lincoln 6 5 1 On the face of things Howard was still the acknowledged leader as the Washington quint defeated Hampton, the team that beat Lincoln, the squad that walloped Howard. Altho the Burremen lost a game to Lincoln the Chester County lads lost to the team that Howard whipped. Howard broke this three cornered deadlock by beating Union. The standing of the leaders this week is as follows: School Games Won Lost Howard 7 6 1 Lincoln 6 5 1 Hampton 6 5 1 Howard leads by one game while Hampton and Lincoln are in a tie for second place. Howard has to play Hampton and Virginia State here in a conference game and a loss will no doubt result in another tie which will necessitate a post season series to decide the Morgan defeated Howard, but this will not count as the Baltimore team is not in actual conference competition this year.

HAINES CO. 3795 Glenn Building Cincinnati, Ohio Gardozo Bows In First Championship Game To Dunbar, 18-7 OPENING GAME IN CITY SERIES WON BY DUNBAR POETS The Dunbar basketeers took the measure of the Cardozo Business High quint by a score of 18 to 7. Friday on the court of the Garnet-Patterson Junior high school gym in the first game in the city championship series and an Inter-State High School conference contest. It was two lards with one stone for the Poets as two titles were at stake in this tilt. The Perkinnen were fighting for Inter-State and city honors. Reckless Shooting Reckless Shooting Inability to find the basket from the court kept the Ca'azzo Clerks on the short end of the scoring. For some reason Coach Washington's men did little passing. Evidently they were instructed to shoot as soon as they became in possession of the ball and they followed instructions. It mattered little where they were on the court. If the basket was in sight it meant a shot at the cords. Sometimes a Cardozo man would shoot without looking for the strings so at times the ball even missed the backboard. Cunningham Good This reckless shooting from all over the court netted the Clerks only one basket and that was made by Harlan, left forward. The other five points were made by the foul route. Although he scored only one point the clever work of Cunningham under difficult circumstances stod out. This youngster played a hard game at all times. With able support he would star in any game. I daresay he was the only Cardozo player to keep fighting all thru the game although everything was against him. Under Wrans With a comfortable lead of a 12 to 4 count at the end of the third quarter the Dunbair players worked under wraps. A brilliant spurt in the closing session swept everything their way. Carlozo threw a scare into their opponents in the first and second quarters. At the end of these periods the Poets were leading by a slim margin of two points. Coach Perkins used two teams during the game with each quint mixed with regulars and second string men. Parker and Greene led in scoring with six points each while the clever passing of the team as a whole buffled and amazed the losers. SCHOOL BASEBALL MAY BE BANNED Plans are being perfected for an outdoor basketball tournament in the public schools here this year. Play will be held in the James Walker Stadium. Over 100 teams from the various schools will be entered and divided into two classes, heavy-weight and lightweight. It is thought that this tournament will take the place of baseball in the schools as most schools here will discard baseball this season. It is claimed that the diamond sport comes too close to commencement and will interfere with examinations. Baseball has lost considerable popularity in schools and colleges within the last few years and many coaches are in favor of eliminating the sport entirely. ALA. STATE UPSETS WILB. By J. B. Sims MONTGOMERY, ALA.—A powerful and fast Alabama State cage team knocked old man dope for a row of cockeyed cucumbers, and virtually rose to the top of the world as they slashed their way to a glorious victory over the intercollegiate champions of basketball, Wilberforce University, here tonight at the city auditorium by a 23-21 count. The contest was one of the fastest ever seen on a local court and kept the fans up in their seats every moment of the fray. The Alabama State Hornets emerged from the game on the long end of the count, by virtue of superb passing and a strong defense that the highly touted Wilberforce five found difficulty in breaking. CARDOZO vs. DOUGLASS The Cardozo Business High school basketball tear will play Douglass High school in Baltimore on Monday. The Clerks will leave early in the day by autos and buses so as to arrive in the Monumental City where the fireworks are scheduled to start at 3:30 p.m. Quits Lichtman Actors On Eve of Battle ITALIAN EDWARD DAVIS, star forward on the Lichtman Theatre Five, turned in his uniform this week before his team met the Baltimore Athenians. The Actors missed the services of Davis and lost the game to the Baltimore quint. The Lichtman Five defeated the Athenians during the first of the season. ATHENIANS WIN ROUGH TILT FROM LICHTMAN FIVE In a rough and tumble battle in which every hold was legitimate the Baltimore Athenians outboxed the Lichtman Theatre Five here. Tuesday night, on the court of Murray's Casino by a score of 24 to 24. Referee Underdown permitted everything, and the players not only slugged, hit, hacked, pulled and kicked one another, but many a man was sent sprawling across the floor with uppercents and jabs to all parts of the body. Barring the fire buckets they used everything in the hall and carry with it. Why the game did not end in a free-for-all is beyond this reporter. Once Joe Jackson, Athenian guard, slammed the ball at the referee who put him out of the game. Then Joe wanted to slug the arbiter, but his mates prevented him from carrying out his purpose. Jackson was allowed to go back in the game. Players were rammed into the walls, knocked across the floor and pushed into the uprights, yet none were killed. Battle Royal What started out to be a basketball game turned into a battle royal with Referee Underdown blind to fragrant violations to every rule of the game. After the first round was over the Greeks were leading a 20 to 10 score. Hostilities began in the second round with "Ev" Davis, Lichtman forward, giving his team another goal. With eight minutes to play the score was tied at 20-all. Powell Sheffy, former Morgan Star, broke the deadlock with a well directed shot from near the basket. From then on the Baltimore quint began a steady march that carried them on to victory. "Slim" Henderson, former Lichtman player, was in the lineup of the visitors and received a hearty hand when he trotted on the floor. Henderson caged four baskets and one free throw during the battle.

PHELPS WIN 'LITTLE HIGH SCHOOL' TITLE Phelps Vocational won the "little high school" basketball championship by beating Cardozo Business High School in the second game by a 2: to 17 score, Monday. The game was played on the "Y" court, and at half time the Cardozo Clerks were leading a 9 to 8 count. In the closing session the Phelps Mechanics staged a brilliant spurt with Hall, West and Robinson starring. Carter was the leading light for Cardozo. The Phelps team came from behind an 18 to 10 score at half time to beat the "Y" Juniors in a hard fought game, 26 to 20. On Tuesday. In the third quarter the Mechanics hit the hoop three times from scrimmage and once from the free throw line.

THREE PLAYERS ATTEMPT TO MOB COLUMBIA ACE By JACK MURRAY (In the N. Y. Graphite) A race riot that threatened for fifteen minutes to turn the corridors of Columbia University's big gymnasium into a battle ground for 2,800 basketball fans and the rival quintets of Columbia University and Manhattan College, took place during a hard fought game on Wednesday evening. Big George Gregory, Columbia's center, was the object of a savage attack by Vinie Keber, Manhattan's fast forward. It became a real battle within thirty seconds after Keber, robbed of the ball as he was dribbling it into enemy territory, by a swift rush from Gregory, turned and lashed a vicious blow at Gregory's chin. Boar of Rage The attack, coming at the peak of the game, with Columbia leading by 10 points and only 6½ minutes to play remaining, was plainly seen by spectators on the benches and in the oval mezzannie gallery. A roar of rage rose from the Columbia stand as the blow was passed. It swelled to a crescendo of howls and hoots as Gregory, following Keber, who kept going with the ball, was set upon by Kelleher and Mazurki. Manhattan players, and others dashed from the side-lines to join the attack. Feet and Fists While Referee Tom Degnan and Timekeeper Ed Shaw sought to intervene, the enraged fans, rising in a wave, tumbled from the benches and surged upon the floor determined to settle the issue with feet and fists. In a moment the gym was a mass of milling collegiants, fists flushing and voices shouting, while the referee's whistle pierced the hub-hub. Frantic officials, coaches, managers and cheer leaders finally succeeded in separating the mob and persuading the spectators to return to the benches, where many nursed black eyes and bruised faces. Both Ordered Out Gregory, Keber and Kelleher were ordered out of the game, and Mazurki, who had been sent to the sidelines after being called out of the game for fouling, was removed to the dressing room upstairs and locked up. Before a mob of muttering fans the interrupted play was resumed, ending in the remaining minutes of play with a 31-21 victory for the lads from Morningside. Mates Stick by Gregory The Columbia men, keyed to a fighting edge by the attack upon Gregory, a favorite on the campus, were with difficulty restrained by their leaders from resuming the riot after the spectators had gone. Reminded of the controversy when Dave Myers, football player, was made the center of another "color line" issue, Columbia officials declined to comment upon their probable action in connection with Wednesday night's incident. But the temper of the undergraduates was not in doubt. They marched away with boos, hisses and cat-calls that left no doubt of their resentment. from free Bowling will be added to Tuskegee's winter sports, if plans under consideration can be perfected.

This win by the Bisons broke the triple deadlock in the C.I.A.A. conference race and put the Howard dribblers in the lead by one game for the flag. The Burrmen toyed with Union throughout the game and at half time the locals were in the van by a 24 to 7 count. Many fans became bored with the way things were going and hundreds left when the first half ended. The Virginia boys grabbed the lead at the beginning of the first half when Ellis spiked a goal after two minutes of play. Taylor, of Howard, tossed in a free throw, making the count 2-1 for Union Harris, the Bison brilliant guard, put one through the nets, giving Howard a 3-2 advantage, and from then on the game was a romp with the Hilltoppers having things all their own way. Second Team In Coach Burr sent in his second string men in the last half and later nearly every man on the squad took a hand in the wreck. Keller, Union forward, did the best he could under the circumstances and caged two field goals and four free throws for a total of 10 points, nearly all his team made. A goal by Ellis and two gift tosses by the same lad ended the scoring for the visitors. The preliminary was the high spot of the evening entertainment, as the Pleasant Planes A.C. downed the Howard Freshmen by 40 to 34 score in an overtime tilt. After the regulation period the count was deadlocked at 34 all. The Planesmen added six more points in the extra three minutes and held the Freshmen scoreless. Butler.

In the Saturday game the "Y" quint run up a big lead during the first half which wound up 15 to 9. Jeffries, the sensational center and the accurate shooting Robinson, of the "Y" team, ran wild and literally outshot the Freshmen. The game Monday was snappy from the start and at the half the "Y" was trailing by nine points, but came back, fighting to take the lead in the third quarter. With Robinson and Jeffries collecting 25 points between them a last-quarter spurt was started that brought victory to the "Y" tossers. On Monday, the "Y" will play Shiloh in a league contest.

"Hotter Than Hot" is the name of the revue and a more fitting title could not be found that could properly portray just what the show contains. The names of Doris Rheubottom, Speedy Smith, John Mason, Jackie Mayson, Johnnie Vigil, the Gaines Brothers, could be headliners on any show, but when you have them all together you have a combination hard to beat. Speedy Smith has the biggest mouth, the loudest laugh, and the funniest voice in vaudeville. John Mason can fall with more violence than any other comedian and does so frequently in his fight with Johnny Vigil, who has a style of comedy all his own. A clever little lady who made her how here for the first time is Jackie Mayson. The leading comedy servers had to work to capacity to keep her from stealing all the laugh honors with here imitations of great artists. Miss Rheubottom is undoubtedly Washington's favorite sweetheart when it comes to singing the sensational ballads, and her delivery of "I'm Doing What I'm Doing for Love," proved more than satisfying. Miss Rheubottom has an unexpected range and perfect control that enables her ot reach the highest notes with perfect ease. Jess ie Cryor, whos voici dHsyJ Jissie Cryor, whose voice is one of those unexplainable oddities that make him an interesting entertainer, shared honors with Miss Rheubottom, while the Gaines Brothers, who are recognized leaders in their particular field, performed tumbling feats that left the spectators gasping for breath. The Howardettes and two clever dancing boys left nothing to be desired in this line of work, and no better recommendation could be made for the show than merely to say it was produced by Addison Carey. "God's Trombones" Heard Over Radio Here Mr. Thomas E. Bowie, of Washington, D. C., is the first Negro to read over station WRC, at Washington. On Monday, February 10, the beginning of National Negro History Week he was scheduled to appear in James Weldon Johnson's...God's Trombones, supported by the Howard University Glee Club under personal direction of Prof. Roy W. Tibbs. Mr. Bowie's readings were in clear, rounded, well pitched tones. With the glee club as a well balanced background his numbers were all the more forceful as portraying the sincere expressions of the Negro evangelist depicted in Mr. Johnson's writing. The debut of Mr. Bowie over the air is the result of very intensive and long study under the private instruction of Mr. Benjamin Washington who has been the producer of several very well rendered dramas, operettas and cantatas as well as musical recitals of some of our prominent race artists. 2,000 GIGGLE AT SOCIETY CIRCUS More than 2,000 people crowded the auditorium of the New Masonic Temple to witness the Pollyanna's Society Circus last Friday night, sponsored by the Pollyanna Club for the benefit of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Marc Terrell was the master of ceremonies, and Rufus Byars was the barker. There were a "tall man," a "fat lady," a "bearded lady," and "Siamese twins." Tony Green sang "Laugh, Clown Laugh," and responded to an encore with "At the End of the Road." Whole Menagerie The animal parts were taken by Robinson, Tyson, Burwell, Simpson and Bond. A monkey contortionist was billed as "Clemo the Great." Sam Popel did a bare back rider act, using a child's tricycle. Terrell and Eddie Underdown were black face comedians. "Pinky" Terry and Chase put over "Hello Baby." "I Faw Down" was sung by the Pollyannas, all THE MUSICIAN Reports from Hollywood say that the famous Stepin Fetchit, who made both a good and bad name for himself, was shelved by the Columbia Corporation, with whom he held a handsome contract last week. Temperament was blamed. Stepin' Fetchit Fails to Fetch It, So Steps Out WOMEN MONEY FOR YOU AT HOME Earn $10 to $20 per week Open a HOME SHOPPE with my imported popular price hats. NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY NO FINANCIAL RISK See MRS. PAYNE, 1445 Que St., N.W. or Phone Potomac 4554-W, for appointment. According to reports drifting eastward from the Cradle of Moviedom, Hollywood, Stepin Fetchit, the poko bad boy of the screen has been dished by the Columbia Corporation with which he held a handsome contract. The official announcement reads: "Stepin Fetchit is out over at Columbia. He had been cast in an important role in 'Lover Come Back', which Erle C. Kenton is directing, but after two days his temperament got the best of him. Harry Cohn, rather than put up with him, let him out and scrapped the film that had been shot up to the time Fetchit went "haywire". Clarence Muse, well known colored dressed in clown suits and riding brooms for horses. Those who took part in the number were Mrs. Marie Wilson, Mrs. Anna Burwell, Mrs. Helen Curtis, Miss Mamie Lewis, Mrs. Ruth Savoy, Mrs. Daisy Glenn, Mrs. Ruth Houston, Miss Adela Parks, Mrs. Viola Smith, Mrs. Sallie Clark, Mrs. Ethel Murray and Miss Jessie Parks. Vanilla and the Villian Tordy McDonald and Glasseco were adagio dancers, "Vanilla and the Villian" from the "What Good Are We" production of last year was played by Wilbur Strickland, Pete Johnson, "Red" Brooks, "Buster" Cornelius, Jack Smith and Frank Trigg, James Musical novelties were given by James Cox. \drienne Marshall's girls—the younger set—danced to the tune of "Wonderful Something Is Love" which was sung by "Pinky" Terry. Miss Marshall herself led the chorus in the dance routine. Those who were in this number were Marjorie Taylor, Helene Ridley, Marie Mcntyre, Louise Overton, Hildred Thomas, Bernice Pearson, Ida Milton, Elizabeth Dowling, Henrietta Grant, Grace Wilkerson, Elise Dowling, Peggy Williston, Juanita James, Dorothy Proctor, Armo Taylor, Elizabeth Fry, Alice Grant, Elizabeth Murray. Pansy Cox sang "Have a Little Faith in Me." The "East Side Dance" was done by Hazel and THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1930 actor, steps into the role. Buster Collier, Jr. and Pauline Starke head the cast, which includes Walter P. Lewis, Betty Tood, Ellrich Houpt and Ann Brody." Of course, this announcement does not give Fetchit's side of the story, which your correspondent is at present seeking to obtain, but there have been circulated frequently stories of his irresponsibility and some of his feats have landed him in the police station. Fetchit has been seen here in a number of pictures, the most famous of which were "Hearts in Dixie," and "Fox Movietone Follies." "His First Command" at the Republic A gripping military love romance, "His First Command," an all-talking picture starring William Boyd will be the feature attraction at the Republic Theatre, on Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, February 15, 16, 17 and 18. "His First Command," which was photographed at Fort Riley, Kansas, has action in every scene and a heart-throb in every dramatic moment. Some of the scenes are in natural color. "The Racketeer," a sensational underworld drama will be shown on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, February 19, 20 and 21. This is an all-talking, vivid story of a racketeering "big shot." Underworld love, intrigue, definance of law, unrelenting vengeance in this thrilling and amazing picture. Robert Armstrong and Carol Lombard have the leading roles. Audrey Jones and two young men. Harriet Purdy, a Hawaiian, did a native dance. Louise Jefferson did a skeleton pantomine. Hazel and Audrey Jones and Jarvis and Strickland did a tap dance. The finale was "Keep Your Sunny Side Up" by the entire company. BACK STAGE What Broadway is to the white show world, Harlem is, or was, to the black. Those who know their Gotham can tell you about the good old days when all you had to do to meet most any stage celebrity of color was to stand for any given length of time under the marquee of the Lafayette Theatre on Seventh avenue and sooner or later he, she or it, the last referring to chorus boys, would be bound to pass. Them days am gone forebear, as most any follower of things theatrical can tell you. No longer does the average Harlemite gaze with amazement and adoration as the actor or actress passes. Instead of envy, if he looks at all, the look is one of pity. He holds a good elevator job, or a more or less permanent position as kitchen police, is lots more certain of his three squares a day than the once lordly thespian. Why the demise of matinee idol, you ask? The Vitaphone is largely responsible, but there are also other divers reasons, and the most important is the actor himself. Shortly after "Shuffle Along" opened new avenues to the colored performer, a change came over the entire profession. Overnight ham actors who had been starving their way to fame and fortune over the T.O.B.A., suddenly became artists and pointed their dancing feet and turned up noses toward the great white way, and, strange as it seems, many succeeded. There came "Liza," "Dinah," "How Come?," Strut Miss Lizzie," "Running Wild," "Chocolate Dandies," "Blackbirds," and a host of others that flopped sooner or later, and all these added to the Negro's coffers and also his ego. "Surely," he reasoned, "these good times must last forever." From the department stores, from the factories, from the pots and pans of the kitchen in the Bronx, damsels, fair of skin and nimble of foot, issued forth to be glorified in sepia revues. Porters and mop boys dropped their pails and wended their way toward stage doors to dance the Charleston and Blackbottom to the edification of white folk, who laughed and laughed and laughed. They wanted entertainment, they wanted to be tickled, they wanted pleasure, and they got it, and, like all pleasure seekers, they grew tired. This dancing that Negroes do began to bore them. They wanted something new. But the Negro eater had been too self-satisfied with his triumphs to bother about thinking up new things. Broadway, however, never stops. Broadway, the perpetual, goes on and on, and those who cannot keep pace are left in the lurch. Now actors plod the pavements of Harlem swallowing their pride. Backing for race shows is hard to get, therefore many are out in the cold. Many repair to the occupations from whence they came. Others hang on, waiting for a break. Sometimes it comes; sometimes it doesn't. I quote this little story because I have seen it enacted more than once in those little lofts and halls where shows are hatched. The chorus girls, dressed in rehearsal suits of bloomers and other unmentionables that chorus girls wear backstage, were being put through their paces. A long-haired, loose-jointed youth was giving them the steps out front. When he paused for breath, the dreamy-eyed piano player called him. "How about the kid third from the left?" he asked under his breath. "Yeh," replied the other, "I had given her the once over. Sweet face, clever dancer, hard worker, and ambitious—but I'll admit she is, eh—that is—a little shady." "Just so, and you know if we want to make Broadway we'll have to keep the line creamy." That conversation explains why after the rehearsal the girl in question is told to remain at home until she is sent for, and she never really understands, why that summons never comes. That is also why white theatre-goers lean from their boxes and remark, "The blackface comedians are clever, but the girls—are they white or colored?" The reason for this I never could understand when I recall that the greatest little artists of the race, Florence Mills, Josephine Baker, and Nina Mae McKinney are not high yellows but tantalizing browns. Something To Think About Dusty Fletcher, the featured comedian of "The Jazz Regiment." has danced in the same pair of shoes for ten years. They have a patch every place a needle could make a hole. The Gaines Brothers are not Cubans, but Negroes, and learned their acrobatic stunts as boys in their own back yard in Baltimore. Other famous brother teams are. Whitney and Tutt, who have played together for more than 25 years. The Miller brothers are Irvin C., Quintard, and Flournoy. They are all in the show business but never played together. Earl and Maurice Dancer are also well known in the show game. Emperors of Harmony Carry Jazz to Australia Australia and New Zealand were solidly converted to an appreciation of Negro music by an invasion of harmony staged by the famous Emperors of Harmony who have recently returned from a triumphant tour. The Emperors of Harmony Quartet consists of Ferdinand B. Graden, Geo. Jones jr., E. C. Caldwell, and W. A. Hann. The Quartet was formed by Geo. Jones jr. and W. Hann, both of Florida, during the summer of 1924. The two began as partners to fulfill several engagements offered them in New York vaudeville. After several years of vaudeville and night club work, the two discovered that there was a larger demand for quartets and so formed their present team by adding Caldwall of St. Louis and Graden, of Cincinnati. They accepted a contract to tour the Pantages Circuit and became an instantaneous success. Their tour took them to the west coast where they were noticed by a movie director and were signed up to produce for Warner Bros. their first talking picture which was titled "The Pullman Porters". This film is still in circulation. In the fall of 1927, they broke all previous box office receipts by playing 32 weeks in Sid Grauman's Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood, Calif. playing the prologue of "Old Ironsides." Directly after this they sailed for Australia to fulfill an unlimited engagement. They spent nine weeks in Australia, playing before crowned heads. From Australia they spent three weeks touring New Zealand where they were acclaimed the idols of the century. They extended their engagement by playing three weeks in the Hawaiian Islands, singing by special request, for the governor and his guests and diplomatic staff. After spending a week basking in the South Sea charms they sailed for San Francisco to fill a 15-week engagement touring the West Coast theatres. In "Hearts in Dixie" Shortly after completing this tour, they were engaged by Fox to make the motion picture "Hearts In Dixie". They also did scenes in "Show Boat". Then came Jarner Bros.' "On With The Show" in which they synchronized and accompanied Ethel Waters in Completing their engagements in pictures they returned to the West Coast theatres where they were engaged to play in the prize-unit of the Fanchon & Marco Idea. "Gobos of Joy." They returned East where they played the large eastern cities. They were such a success that the show was forced DUNBAY THEATRE Raymond H. M.

The Quartet returned to New York in the fall of 1929 where they disbanded for a temporary vacation. However, this did not last long as the people the country over were clamoring for the return of the Emperors of Harmony. They returned to the "Gobs of Joy" presentation, in which they re-opened at the Fox Theatre in Washington, D.C. They toured the eastern cities again and fulfilled engagements in Toronto and Montreal. They are, at the present, completing a six-week engagement in New England and when this is finished they will return to New York City to play the Keith houses for an indefinite period. The Emperors of Harmony personify the cream of the Negro artists on the stage today and their popularity is as yet unprepared. By way of comparison, The Four Harmony Kings now playing abroad, are a fast rising group of promising singers. They are not to be confused with the Emperors of Harmony however, altho' they often are. The Harmony quartet is soon to embark for Paris where head of that republic and will be they will sing before the executive the guests of Ethel Waters and Josephine Baker.

Evelyn Brent Featured in "Broadway," Tells of Big Moments in New Photodrama HAS BIGGEST SCENE SHE EVER PLAYED IN Evelyn Brent, who plays the tensely dramatic role of Pearl, the revue girl, in "Broadway," the Universal superfilm of the sensational New York play which comes to the Lincoln Theatre here on Saturday believes that big scenes inevitably make big pictures. And in "Broadway," she says, there is possibly the biggest scene which she has ever played. "Of course," she said, "I certainly don't mean that the scene is so big because I happened to play it, but that any actress would consider herself fortunate to have it to play. It is the scene where Pearl kills Steve Crandall—the thunder bolt of the story as it appeared on the stage." Two sorts of big scenes, according to Miss Brent, are necessary to make a big picture; big spectacular scenes and big emotional scenes. Both being in the story, she says it is almost impossible for the picture to fall short of greatness. In "Broadway," as it appeared on the New York stage during its run of 90 weeks, the audience was given only the emotional "big scene," but when Carl Laemmle, Jr., decided to produce the play as a picture and paid the record price of $275,000 for the screen rights, he determined to add to the picture the big spectacular scenes which it was impossible to present Get The Habit of Going To The Theatre Early FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 14, 1930 "I have played many, many parts." says Miss Brent, "but among them all Pearl is one of my greatest favorites. To me she is the perfect personification of a woman of her type; and in the lives of all such women there is love, and hate, and courage—and always drama."

The gorgeous Paradise Night Club, as seen in the picture in technicolor, is a climax of spectacle; and Pearl's revenge upon Steve, her determination to make him pay for the gangster murder of her lover is the emotional climax." Besides these cimates, the second of which held New York theatregoers spellbound for almost two years, "Broadway," has running through its entire action the tender thread of Roy Lane's love for Billie Moore—the sympathetic romance of a cabaret "hoofer" and his team-mate, as played by Glenn Tyron and Merna Kennedy. "Thus," says Miss Brent, "no possible appeal is neglected—Broadway as a film encompasses every sort of big scene so vital to a big picture. And what actress is there who doesn't want her every picture to be big?" Between all the spectacular and dramatic scenes which score so signally in the film, Dr. Paul Fejos, the young director, whose rise to the crest of the motion picture art has been phenomenal, has deftly interspersed lighter scenes with Otis Harlan, as a gangster, and Marion Lord, as Lil, the night club hostess. "So few directors," said Miss Brent, "are able to give to a big dramatic spectacle the sure touches of comedy which serve by comparison further to heighten the drama. With Dr. Paul Fejos this is instinctive—and just one more reason why 'Broadway' in its screen version must be found more intensely entertaining even than was the play." Steve Crandall, the "menace" of the story, is played by Robert Ellis, a recent Universal acquisition who has distinguished himself in many roles. It is this sterling actor who shares with Miss Brent the biggest scene of the play wherein he vainly begs for mercy at her hands. Thomas Jackson, who plays Dan McCorn, the detective, and Paul Porcasi, who portrays Nick Verdis, the night club proprietor, both were selected for their parts because of the success with which they enacted them throughout the entire New York run. Their lines are among the "fattest" in the play.

Their welcome at Campaign Headquarters in the Post building was a cordial one, and they stated yesterday they have been given every form of assistance in mapping out their campaigns for subscriptions on a comprehensive basis. This opportunity, it was made plain to them, is open to every reputable citizen, and offers a real prospect to representative people to demonstrate their vote-getting abilities in an open field. The opportunity for one or more of the biggest prizes to be awarded to candidates has become apparent early, as the campaign emphasis is placed on extension into the field of new subscribers. Candidates now entered, and those who desire to take advantage of this opportunity, however, are lot limited to secure their votes within this city, but are afforded advice and assistance in securing them everywhere that friends and well-wishers may be found. The Washington Post, according to a survey made by C. S. Johnson before he sailed to Africa on the Liberian commission, has presented to its public during the past five years constructive news concerning the Negro in liberal measure. The candidates, therefore, find they have no apologies to offer when they seek subscriptions. On the other hand, while enjoying the opportunity to win one or more of the big prizes which the Post has offered, they are able to extend to the public an opportunity for the wider development of a chronicle of events at the Capital of the Nation in an organ which molds and shapes opinion throughout the world.

Alice Ponders Kip's Offer NEW YORK (ANP)—Whether or not Alice Jones Rhinelander will accept the latest ultimatum from her ex-husband, Leonard (Kip) Rhinelander, is debatable, according to her attorney. Kip makes an offer through his attorney from Las Vegas, Nevada, of one-third of his income if Alice will drop his name. Mrs. Rhinelander's counsel says that this will be done only if the "one-third" amounts to a sufficient sum. The ultimatum from Nevada further states that unless Alice dogs drop the name of Rhinelander, the monthly check of $220 will be stopped.

Speaking of Parham, he said the youth is in Chicago studying day and night for the examination on March 23. That if he failed he would appoint another black boy, and that he would soon appoint two more black boys to the Navy Academy at Annapolis, Md. Senator Glenn Senator Glenn said that it was a greater honor to speak before the audience of Negroes than to speak before an audience of millionaires in Chicago last Friday. Of the four men he appointed here, two are colored, said Senator Glenn. He said that the Negro's history does not confine itself to the present, but we could go back to Columbus. One of the pilots for one of his boats was a Negro. He paid a tribute to Elijah P. Lovejoy, of Alton, Illinois. He said that he did not think much of the man who says you belong to us and we are your best friends, but will not give you a decent school, nor a decent wage, nor permit you to vote. I think very little of his Americanism. Equality of opportunity is the important thing. Equal pay for the same service, the same medical service at the hospitals, better homes and better opportunity for life, liberty and freedom. This mass meeting was held under the auspices of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, of which Dr. Carter G. Woodson is director. S. L. McLaurin presided and John R. Hawkins was master of ceremonies. The Coleridge-Taylor Choral Club rendered the music. MISS BURROUGHS (Continued from page 1) under ten cardinal points which were as follows: 1. It is a civilization with double standards and in which people are penalized for not being white. 2. It is a civilization in which people are not taught the biological and sociological truths about race. 3. It is a civilization in which people are taught that just being white make one inately superior. A—The tragedy of it is that white people are under the illusion that theirs is the only race in the world that has the right color. 4. It is a civilization on which race and color prejudices are propagated, condoned, organized and glorified. 5. It is a civilization in which white people can break into the Negro race when they choose and where they choose and then come out and make laws and set up barriers to keep the Negro from breaking into their race. 6.

The meeting opened at 7:30 p.m., with Daughter Ruler Alethya B. Williams presiding. The Temple adopted the admendments to the constitution as offered by the financial secretary, D. Rhoda F. Colston. Another assistant secretary was added to the office force. The new assistant daughter, Lula Crow, was appointed by the daughter ruler. The Temple is planning a monster banquet to be held in the near future in honor of the grand temple officer, Dt. Ellie Stewart, grand doorkeeper. This affair will be arranged by Dt. Louise Pinkney, mistress of social sessions, and her committee. Watch for the time and place. The Temple went into social session and the exalted ruler of Columbia Lodge No. 85, Bro. Herbert E.

MORE HEFLIN (Continued from page 1) one else in authority in their effort to prevent the marriage of their daughter to a Negro. The press reports tell us that the white father and mother wept freely when interviewed by the newspaper men and made no attempt to hide their tears and humiliation when New York officials issued a marriage license to a Negro to marry their daughter. And this terrible thing has happened here in what we used to call the land of Anglo-Saxon rule and white supremacy. Shame on those in authority who will permit such a humiliating, disgraceful, and dangeous thing to happen in the United States. Where are the white men of self-respect, of race pride, and love of the white man's 10,000 white Negroes a good excuse for disappearing into the white race. 7. It is a civilization in which the black man is battling for his God given right and hopes that he will not have to turn white in order to get them. 8. It is a civilization that breeds ignorance, injustice, idleness, disease and race antipathy. 9. It is a civilization in which the promoter pays more for what they get than it is worth. 10. It is a civilization in which there is more race prejudice than there is Christianity. In closing her speech, Miss Burroughs stated that "This jim crow type of American democracy, this ungodly type of twentieth Century Christianity, has cost Americ millions of lives and billions of dollars. But, above these, it has introduced a strain of brutality into the very life blood of the nation that will take over 500 years of intensive work and the application of the social teachings of Jesus Christ to eradicate." 100 country in America whose brave forbears long ago decreed that there should be no pollution of the blood of the white race by permitting marriage between whites and Negroes? What has become of the brave knights of the white race who once boasted of their proud Caucasian lineage? For many generations they stood guard on the dividing line between the Caucasian race and the Negro race. "The far-reaching harm and danger of marriage between whites and Negroes to the great white race that God intended should rule the world is apparent to all intelligent students of history; such mixtures have always resulted in weakening, degrading, and dragging down the superior to the level of the inferior race. God had a purpose in making four separate and distinct races. The white, the red, the yellow, and the black. God intended that each of the four races should preserve its blood free from mixture with other races and preserve race integrity and prove itself true to the purpose that God and in mind for each of them when He brought them into being. The great white race is the climax and crowning glory of God's creation. God in His infinite wisdom has clothed the white man with the elements and the fitness of domination and rulership, and the history of the human race shows that wherever he has planted his foot and unfurled the flag of his authority he has continued to rule. No true member of the great white race in America is going to approve or permit, if he can prevent it, the marriage between whites and Negroes. "This desire and purpose on the part of the great white race in America to keep its blood strain pure and to prevent marriage between whites and Negroes can better be designed as the "call of the blood." It has come down to us through the centuries. White women, rather than become the wives of the black man, whenever the issue was presented, fought and died, if necessay, to remain true to the "call of the blood." But it seems that in New York, under alien influence, that the line of demarcation between the great white race and the Negro race, the "great divide," that once constituted the "dead line" in America on questions of social equality and marriage between whites and Negroes, have been repudiated by those of the Roman-Tammany regime now in charge of New York City and New York State. These officials owe it to the great white race in the state of New York and in the whole United States to protect, safeguard, and preserve in their integrity these principles and ideals so dear to the great white race in America.

She can show you how to have a luxuriant growth of hair that will be the envy of all your friends. "The time has come for all true Americans of the Caucasian race, wake up to the daners that threaten us. There can be no yielding on this great question in order to serve the program and purpose of the Roman-Tammany political machine. We must stand steadfast, and we will stand steadfast, in our purpose and determination to preserve in its integrity race pride and purity and white man's government in the United States. I regret to say that the present disgusting and deplorable situation in New York State, which permitted a white father and mother to be subjected to the humiliating and shameful ordeal of having to submit to the marriage of their daughter to a Negro, is not new under the modern Roman-Tammany system in New York City and State. Scores of Negroes in Harlem, New York, members of the so-called Democratic Tammany organization have been permitted to marry white wives with license granted by and with the hearty approval of the state and city government presided over by Governor Smith and Jimmie Walker, and now by Gov. Franklin Roosevelt and Jimmie Walker. These things are shocking, disgusting, and sickening not only to the Democrats but to the true representatives of the great white race in all parties the country over." Scores Catholics "The fact that the Roman Catholic Church permits negroes and whites to belong to the same Catholic Church and to go to the same Catholic schools and permit and sanctions the marriage between whites and negroes in the United States is largely responsible for the loose, dangerous, and sickening condition that exist in New York City and State to-day and the all-important question of preserving the integrity of our race and white supremacy in the United States. "My knowledge of this open and notorious social equality policy, this terrible system in New York State, permitted and approved by Governor Smith, was one of the things that made it impossible for me to support him for President in 1928. Many States in the Union have laws which forbid marriage between white and negroes; all of the States should have, and some day will have, such laws. I understand that New York would have had such a law but for the opposition of Governor Smith and his Tammany friends in the legislature. Alabama has such a law, and I helped to put in the constitution of that State in 1901. Very truly, J. Thos. Heflin." Dr. Herbert Harris 1342 U St., N.W.

HAWAIIAN BEAUTY PRODUCTS COMPANY D. R. Box 514 Hollywood, California WOMAN SUES UNDERTAKER FOR ASSAULT Ten Year Romance Ends in Court When Mortician's Love Dies PITTSBURGH, Pa.—A parellu to the sensational Curtis-Fitzhugh case which rocked Capital society for the past two weeks arose to shock the staid residents of Pittsburgh when pretty Gladys Coffey brought suit against Payton Rose, prominent local undertaker on charges of assault last week. Testimony almost identical with that given by Miss Eva Fitzhugh was given by Miss Coffey who declared that Rose invited her to meet him at Shady and Penn avenues Tuesday night and there he assaulted her. She appeared in court with her face badly scratched and her eyes blackened. Rose also brought charges of assault against the girl, but failed to appear in court when the case was called. Was Only School Girl Declaring that the romance had existed for nearly ten years Miss Coffey alleges that only recently was she the recipient of Mr. Rose's mistreatment. That ever since 1920, when she was fourteen years old and a student in the Peabody high school, Miss Coffey avers that the undertaker was affectionate, kind, attentive and prompt. Miss Coffey further alleges that while the affair was going on she worked practically the entire time. "He used to meet me on my way to school, at the corner of Beatty and Columbo streets, every day, and then again after school," Miss Coffey said. Would Get Divorce "He told me he would get a divorce. Last year he told me it was pending. Later he said that his wife would not consent to a divorce from him unless he would give her 10,000," declared Miss Coffey. She related alleged trips to other cities, including the Elks' convention in Atlantic City the past summer. It was following a trip to Children will fret, often for no apparent reason.

Echoing the Hoover praise of the murderous activity of the U. S. marines in Haiti under the leadership of the American High Commissioner, Gen. John H. Russell, president Bomo commended his fellow butchers for their killing of 200 rebels in the recent uprising. Admitting that the masses are still seething with a rebellious spirit against the American dictatorship that keeps him in power, Borno said: "Legislative elections are an impossibility at this time because our republic must depend too much on the United States government for its peace, tranquility, stabilization and general help. Such cooperation would be impossible with a legislative body ruling Haiti." This is an admission that the entire legislative body elected would be to a man opposed to U. S. imperialism if the masses could express their wish untrammeled by a sea of marine bayonets. Woman Physician at H. U. Trustee Meet Among those attending the meeting of the Board of Trustees of Howard University February 4, was Dr. Louise C. Ball, who was elected at the meeting last June. Dr. Ball is the dental physician of New York City, a graduate of Hunter College, and the College of Dental and Oral Surgery. Since 1914 she has been associated as dental investigator, with Prof. W. J.

Dr. Ball is a Fellow of the American Medical Association, a member of the American Dental Association, former vice-president of the Periodontology, and is honorary president of the international health foundation for children. In 1923 she made a study of dental conditions and diet of native peoples in many countries in South America, continuing the study in 1927 in the Union of South Africa.

Superior Court Judge Vinci today ruled that Sally Trainor could not live in the house she owns, "or permit any other non- caucasian to live there," within the next 99 years, because it is within one of the districts from which Negroes are barred. All White Body Is Named to Study Haitian Affairs (Continued from page 1) Fletcher was Under-Secretary of State from March 8, 1921, to March 1, 1922. He later served as ambassador to Belgium and Italy and as minister to Lexemberg. He was chairman of the United States delegation to the fifth Pan-American conference in Habana. Mr. White is the publisher and editor of the Emporia Daily and Weekly Gazette. Moton Named In announcing his selection of five members of the commission, President Hoover stated that he had asked Dr. Robert R. Moton, president of Tuskegee Institute, to undertake a separate investigation of the educational systems of Haiti. He said orally that there was some disinclination on the part of members of the Senate and House to serve on the Haitian commission and therefore the congressional membership had not been determined. Formal Statement President Hoover's formal announcement was as follows: "I have now appointed the Haitian commission which will be composed of Mr. W. Cameron Forbes, as chairman; Mr. Henry P. Fletcher, of Pennsylvania; Mr Elie Vezina, of Rhode Island; Mr James Kearney, of New Jersey; Mr. William Allen White, of Kansas. "In cooperation with Mr. Forbes, I have requested Dr. R. R. Moton, president of Tuskegee Institute, on behalf of the institute and such other educational affiliation as he may suggest, to undertake an exhaustive investigation into the educational system of Haiti with view to recommendations for the future. Leaves February 20 The commission will be leaving for Haiti about February 20 or 25. Upon final passage by the House February 4 of the joint resolution authorizing an appropriation of $50,000 for the inquiry, President Hoover issued a statement which said: How To Withdraw The primary question which is to be investigated is when and how we are to withdraw from Haiti. The second question is what we shall do in the meantime. "Certainly we shall withdraw our marines and officials some time. There are some people who wish for us to scuttle overnight. I am informed that every group in Haiti considers that such action would result in disaster to the Haitian people." Alain Locke Heard by Boston Clubs BOSTON, Mass.,—Dr. Alain Le-Roy Locke, head of the Department of Philosophy of Howard University, delivered a series of addresses in and about Boston from February 7 to 12. Among his engagements Dr. Locke read a paper before the Harvard Philosophical Club on "Cultural Relativism," and again spoke before the Harvard Liberal Club on the subject of the "New Africa." On Sunday he delivered an address on "Self-determining the Negro," before the Ford Hall Forum. He also gave the annual address at the international dinner of the American Congregational Missionary Society, and an address on "The Situation in Haiti" before a Massachusetts Branch of the Women's League for Peace Freedom, and on one "The Negro and Self-Emancipation," before the Twentieth Century Club.

CARDUI HELPS WOMEN TO HEALTH DIXIE STUDENTS SHOW INTEREST IN RACE MOVEMENT Mrs. Alice Dunbar Nelson Finds Schools of South Ripe For Interracial Discussions PHILADELPHIA. Pa. — The American Interracial Peace Committee through its Secretary, Alice Dunbar-Nelson, reports an unusual degree of interest in the discussions of interracial relationships as affecting international peace, on the part of the students of some of the leading colleges in the south. Mrs. Nelson, who is making a tour of the principal schools, has visited Howard University; Virginia Normal Institute at Petersburg; The Agricultural and Technical College at Greensboro, N. C.; Palmer Memorial School at Sedalia, N. C.; The Bricks Junior College, Bricks, N. C.; The Rocky Mount High School; Shaw University at Raleigh; St. Augustine's School at Raleigh; The Barry O'Kelly Training School; The North Carolina College for Negroes; Winston-Salem Teachers College; Henderson Normal School. At all these institutions, after an assembly or Chapel talk, discussion groups of students are formed of from fifteen to fifty and a round table of questioning and discussion follows, lasting from a half an hour to an hour or an hour and a quarter. At some schools, students ask for class room discussions. That the youth in the colleges and normal schools is vitally interested in interracial situations as affecting international affairs is evident from their keenness of argument and alertness of attention.

Such souls forever live In boundless measure of the love they give. Grace Lucas Thompson, Vivian Thompson Turner. C REV. WEST IN VIRGINIA Rev. George H.

Carey, of Chicago, Ill., and a ember of that city's Civil Service Commission, should be unfrocked as a minister and bishop of the great A. M. E. Church. This position is based on the indictment of Bishop Carey for accepting money in return for giving out jobs. His case has not yet finished the rounds of the court yet. Bishop Carey's own church paper, the Christian Recorder, defends him and says that it was politics and it only happened because he was a Negro. This view however, cannot be readily accepted because a Negro occupies a similar position in New York City and has held the place now for a number of years and no one has as yet tried to frame him. If it was politics and the Bishop certainly knew how dirty politics are in Chicago, then why should he make such an unholy alliance with such a racket? It is beyond question that Bishop Carey made a fatal blunder when he surrendered the dignity of his position as a Bishop in a great Christian Church, to ally himself with politics in Chicago where sin and the devil are ever present. He surely knew that when he accepted the honors and pay of a political job, he must of necessity accept the disgrace and ridicule which invariably follow. There can be little doubt of the baneful effect his indictment has had upon his usefulness as a bishop of one of our greatest churches. Bishop Carey should not have placed the A. M. E. Church in the predicament that it now finds itself in. He has certainly disgraced his office and the church which honored him.

If immigration is to be restricted by the United States, it should apply to Mexico as well as the European countries. Mexican labor is really a menace to American labor in the south-west. Mexicans come to this country in hordes and work for a mere pittance. This of course is big pay for them, but it helps to keep down the standard of American wages and lowers our standard of living. Is it not an odd theory for the Republicans to advocate a protective tariff in order to keep up the wages of the American laborer, and then let down the gates to men to come to the United States and underbid the American worker for his job? Congressman Oscar DePriest was perfectly right in his address in Chicago when he said: he believed in America for Americans. He further stated that the immigration gates should be closed for at least another ten years. The House Committee on Immigration is holding hearings on the bill now. Negroes who are the first ones affected by increased immigration, should get busy and let their Congressmen know their attitude on this important subject. Every foreigner coming here and getting a job, means that there is just one less job for a native American. With more than 4,000,000 men idle in this country now, it is no time to open the gates to more immigrants, who seriously affect the economical status of the Negro in particular. and a member of that city's Civil Service Commission, TEACHING NEGRO HISTORY The Association for the praise that can get the Washington Auditorium the first time in our hist a meeting held for the story.

We believe that this is the first time in our history that four thousand Negroes have attended a meeting held for the purpose of promoting the study of Negro history. This meeting has brought home in a very vivid way the great importance of this long neglected important subject. It was very fitting that two men who played such an important part in the reconstruction history of the race were able to be present. Their presence alone was an inspiration. Congressman Oscar DePriest deserves much praise for the part he played in making the meeting so successful. Dr. Carter G. Woodson, who pioneered this work, is also deserving of much praise for building up such an organization despite the handicaps encountered. Each year "Negro History Week" has claimed more and more interest. The meeting here Tuesday shows that the public is not at all cold to such an observance. The meeting held here could be duplicated in many other cities. The Negro is gradually awakening to the fact that he has a glorious history. MANY THANKS TO OUR READING PUBLIC Last Friday The Tribune presented the public with its "Bigger and Better" newspaper. The warm and appreciative reception accorded our offering was far past our own expectations. For this gracious reception, we are exceedingly thankful. To use the language of a screen star, we wish to say "you ain't seen nothing yet." Last week's paper was just a starter. Just watch this "Bigger and Better" Tribune grow "Bigger and Better" each week. Again we wish to thank our reading publbie for the wonderful reception. THE HOOVER HAITIAN COMMITTEE As an efficiency engineer, President Hoover has played peanut politics in the selection of a his Haitian committee. This committee has been selected ostensibly to study the conditions on the island with a view recommending a graceful withdrawal of the United States Marines. These soldiers of a foreign nation have unnecessarily been retained there since 1915 mostly at the behest of the National City Bank of New York City. Of course there is not a Negro on the commission. Three of the members are rank politicians with absolutely no knowledge of Haitian problems, who evidently were chosen because of their readiness to hear their master's voice and thereby bring in the kind of report the National City Bank desires. The commission includes: W. C. Forbes, ex-governor of the Philippines who made himself very unpopular with the natives while there; William Allen White, the crusading genius of Emporia, Kans.; James Kerney, an unknown newspaper man of Trenton, N. J.; Elie Veniza, a supposed student of Haitian affairs; and Henry F. Fletcher, ex-diplomat and Pennsylvania politician. With such a commission, it is needless to expect anything short of an evasive meaningless report that could be written without even expense of the trip to the island republic. The voice of the National City Bank will be heard and not that of the Haitian people themselves. Of course the marines will not be withdrawn soon. However, there may be a gradual withdrawal, timed to probably have most of them out by 1956 when the present treaty between the United States and Haiti The naming of Robert R. Moton, of Tuskegee Institute to make a study of the educational needs of the island is a joke. Dr. Moton is utterly unprepared to do this. The culture of Haiti is French. Its language and customs are largely copied from that country. This has been true since the establishing of a Negro government there. The Haitians should promptly resent their educational institutions being Motonized. Furthermore, if the educational needs of the island are inadequate, and need re-organizing from outside sources, why could not this person have been placed on the commission prope.? Is Dr. Moton the jim-crow end of the commission? The President is running true to form in making these appointments. On previous commissions named, this Quaker President has complettley ignored the Negro. Not only has he ignore; the Negro on his commissions, but has completely avoided him in making appointments to positions of trust in his administration. We hope the commission will complete its report soon and that that report will recommend the full and complete withdrawal of the marines and all of the American carpet bag exploiters.

ASKS SCHUYLER By George Schuyler To the Editor: Dear Sir: For the past three or four weeks Negro writers, speakers and leaders of all kinds have been frothing at the mouth because General Jan Christian Smuts declared that the exploited and downtrodden African wage slave was almost as docile as an ass. The first to take the good general to task was "Major" Robert R. Moton of Tusgegee Institute; he was followed by a horde of other indignant Senegambian worthies. I confess that even I, confirmed cynic and close observer of the Negro that I am, was a little incensed by the remark of the celebrated Boer soldier-statesman. But after giving the matter a little thought, I am compelled to accept the Smutty statement in part, i. e., while I deny that the African Negro is as docile as an ass, I am rather inclined to believe that his brother in America does not fall far short of that classification. Consider the Ass Consider the Ass Consider, for a moment, the nature of the ass. He is patient and uncomplaining and only lashes out with his little rear hoofs when severely beaten or kicked by his driver. It never seems to occur to him that he ought to do something to prevent a recurrence of the beating. He just launches out with his hoofs at his tormentor and when that worthy has jumped back out of reach he settles back into his docile state until the next beating occurs. He uncomplainably bears his harness and carries his loads, and gives little thought of the morrow or the mistreatment it may bring forth. Now wherein, I rise to ask, does the duty of the ass differ from that of the bulk of American Negroes? Do they not bear their burdens without audible complaint, except from an infinitesimal minority? Does it occur to the bulk of the black brethren to fight back except when severely dealt with: i. e., in a lynching, bombing or race riot? Are they engaged in planning any measures to prevent a recurrence of these many outrages against them? After an怒 of mob violence, do Negroes drop back complacently into the old rut and uncomplainingly don the old harness Answer these questions, and you have the answer to the correctness of General Smuts' statement. Not Afraid to Die Not Afraid to Die As I said, we must disagree with the General if he is referring only to African Negroes because we know very well that the dark folk of the Dark Continent are aroused against oppression and exploitation as never before. They have organized the largest Negro labor union in the world for the purpose of attaining and maintaining a high standard of living. They have assembled and protested even when threatened with death by the authorities. Many of them in the past few months have not been afraid to die for what they considered to be their rights. In America, the Land of the Free, the Negro acts differently. With the wave of discrimination and segregation about to engulf him, he goes calmly along his way, attending dances and conventions, church socials and bridge games, frequenting lodge rooms, theatres and gin mills as if there were no problems involving his very survival confronting him. If the American Negro were not as patient as the ass, he would be at least 75 per cent organized against the forces oppressing him. He would present a united front against all the forces seeking to thrust him back into a state of slavery. He would sacrifice his every possession for the proper defense of his manhood rights and the acquisition of full social equality as an American. Instead, the entire Negro group in the United States, gives less than $100,000 a year to the only organization that is effectively fighting his battles for full freedom: the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Knowing which I ask: If Homo Aframericanus isn't closely related to the ass family, what is he related to? POEM A WEEK ARE YOU A MAN? I do not ask, my friend, if you Were born a Gentile or a Jew, A Buddhist, or Mohammendan: I only ask, are you a man? It matters not, my friend, to me, If you are black as black can be or colored red, or brown, or tan: I ask but this, are you a man? I care not brother, whence you came. Nor do I seek to know your name. Your race, religion, creed or clan:— I want to know if you're a man. I care not if you're homely quite Or handsome as an angel bright: If you, throughout your little span, Have only shown yourself a man. I know that most men think like that: They hate a weakling, loathe a rat: They've always liked, since time ago began. One who is first and last a man. Susan Loring ADIPLOMAT IN THE CAPITAL What's the use to grumble and complain? It's just as cheap and easy to rejoice. When God sorts out the weather and sends the rain, Well—rain's my choice. —Riley. Of course, all I know is what I read in the papers, and incidentally hear in court, whispered over back fences, or dished by professional dirt dishers who whisper all sorts of things in strict confidence. Therefore, my knowledge of public and private affairs is naturally limited, but there is one case that everybody seems to be discussing. Why should I be an exception? Downtown last week in what we call a court of justice, twelve good men and true returned a verdict of $5,350 damages against a certain physician for an assault against a young lady of his undenied acquaintance. While, personally, I hold no brief for either side of the controversy being too busily engaged looking for bigger and better scandals, to weigh the merits or demersits of the case, I, nevertheless, feel that while they may have predicted their decision on the facts in the case, the jury has set a bad precedent. Such a verdict puts a premium on wife and sweetheart beating, a condition which we red-blooded he-men cannot afford. If rumors that reach my uninitiated ears are correct, and I never doubt scandalous tidings, beating women is quite a fad around these parts, being the choice pasttime of Howard University Don Juans who frolic with wives of other men, which, of course, is just what the ladies deserve. My argument is just this. Since the assault and battery craze has gained such a foothold, wouldn't it be a shame to curb this bit of pleasantry at this time by making it a profitable experience for the assaultee? Far be it from me to advocate brutality, although I confess that I have met few women whom I would not like to give a sound thrashing under certain provoking circumstances, even though it hurt me more than it did them, as my father used to say. That statement I always questioned, as he was perfectly able to sit down after leaving the woodshed, while I experienced considerable discomfiture in doing the same. My criticism of the jury in this particular case does not lie in the amount of the damages granted, but in their failure to also return an itemized account of how they arrived at their verdict. I think the men of Washington with pugilistic tendencies are entitled to know whether each blow costs a given sum, or whether the first bloy has a certain price, and the succeeding blows came at a reduction, depending on whether you struck a dozen or a gross. A card of quotations should be passed around just like the grocery stores do on Saturdays. I am hard at work on a little invention, which, when strapped to the arm, will tabulate the number of punches delivered with a little bell attached that will notify the angry swain when he has pommelled as much as he can afford. The cost of this little instrument will be greatly offset by the saving in the fact that it will keep a fellow from being cheated when he appears before the jury. For instance, the lady might say you struck her twenty times, when, as a matter of fact, the Matthews' Punch Recording Machine will prove that you only struck her ten times. This will not only save you a great deal of money, but will help you create a doubt as to the lady's veracity. These machines will be on sale at all cigar stores and will be guaranteed for 1,000 fights. Therefore, they ought to last a single man ten years and a married one six months. Another very serious problem that evolves itself here is whether there ought not to be a number of days set aside each year as bargain days? By this method a fellow who cannot afford to beat his wife or sweetheart under ordinary circumstances can, by careful saving and thrift, take advantage of these special sales. Of course, if a young man has no self-control, he can sell his car or house when an emergency presents itself. My instrument, however, will be of little use to a spendthrift who pounces on his sweetie and runs up a big bill just to show off. Such a verdict is regrettable for other reasons, too. A good, husky girl with any ambition at all can earn a fairly comfortable living just prowling around provoking men to wrath. What is a black eye or two compared to a fur coat? This method has been resorted to for ages by legally wedded wives, but thus far the number of black eyes delivered far exceed the number of coats collected. There is, of course, the dirty story of the flapper who sued the butter and egg man for assault, and the only scar she had was on her hip. After five hours the all-men jury sent the following message to the judge: "Your Honor, we have all agreed on one thing—we want a closer examination of the evidence." This has nothing at all to do with the discussion in hand, and was merely inserted to relieve the mind for a second after such a weighty dissertation. We are submitting to Congress this week a petition asking it to establish a uniform beating law throughout the United States. The time is now ripe when all men should be free and equal to women under the law. Some sort of set scale should be decided upon like the following: For beating own wife.....$200.00 per blow For beating somebody else's wife.....$500.00 per blow For beating a pretty young thing.....$500.00 per blow For beating an old maid.....50 cents All in favor of these recommendations will be kind enough their name to this column so that a list may be printed e This will make interesting reading at home, and will give y something to talk about at the supper table, dinner table, and breakfast, all day and all night, making married life well worth while. Yours in the name of peace. A S RIBBLIR AT LA IGE A S RIBBLIR AT LA IGE THE BLACK CHRIST Contee Cullen has not forgotten his poetic work through all his matrimonial troubles and now New York has his latest works, "The Black Christ," and other poems. "The Black Christ" is a long narrative piece in which Jim, a young Negro, is taken from his mother's cabin and lynched for the sin of another man. The theme embodies a strain of strong religious mysticism; the Negro becomes a symbol of Christ, and, like Christ, is made to live again after death. SEVENTH STREET If Benjamin Banneker, great surveyor, could see Seventh street today, especially between New York and Florida avenues, although between these points the Negroes are not quiet as numerous, although they are very much in evidence. Intermingling are Jews, Italians, and other foreigners who help make up the Black Ghetto. Second-hand stores where all kinds of articles and clothes are pawned daily by the poor and muck de mucks line the street between this point. Hair-dressing parlors for keeping the moss straight with Madame Walker and Poro come in also for their share of the shops along the dimly lighted highway. Seventh street at N can very well be termed "Little Africa," as this spot is the most—MOST WHAT? I NOMINATE FOR THE HALL OF FAME Kelly Miller: Because he is the leading American Negro philosopher; because big writings have had great influence in America; because he is a lecturer, an educator and an authority on Negro politics. Martha A. McAdoo: Because she is among the outstanding women community and social workers in the city; because under her leadership the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A., ranks with 'the outstanding associations in America; and finally because the public has suddenly recognized her greatness in this community. S. W. Rutherford: Because he is the lender, founder and organizer of one of the largest Negro business enterprises in America. AND THEY TELL ME Austin Belasco, veteran organist at the Republic Theatre, is doing a "bit" down at the District Supreme Court these days. The young man is among the February list of jurors who help the judges to deal out a square trial and sentence to everyone. The Ohio Boot Shop in the district of Columbia is one of those shops where the owner swears he will not become acclimatized, so Boyd continues to hold the fort at Eleventh and U streets. A plumber who will fix your leaks and spouts has been added to the list of new businesses on the Avenue near the corner of Thirteenth street. The Avenue is growing more like Broadway every day, the illuminated Masonic Temple at night is just a reminder of the gay white way at Forty-second street. Napper has the only "nap" station on the Avenue, being an all night druggist. Brooks, the candy man, is still mixing the bitter with the sweet. Let him prescribe for your sweetheart. Cupid and his Dart are all set for Friday—St. Valentine's Day. SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT Hayti and the United States In many ways the situation between Hayti and this country resembles the period of American colonial opposition to British control: there are people here who profess to see great injustice in the conduct of the United States, while there are Haytians who find benefits in the same situation; there are financial agencies here benefitting from the condition, and moralists condemning it; there are Americans paid from Haytain revenues, yet below the Haytains in culture, and there are Haytains too dull and unmindful of the methods of organized resistance, to take advantage of the manner of our occupation; above all, there is great inequality in powers, and great ignorance here of the real conditions among the Haytains who are a people of ancient lineage, fixed customs and strange ways. Never Slaves General Russell, in charge of American marines, says the mulattoes alone are dissatisfied. He overlooks the fact that they have never been slaves, hence inherit a pride which makes extermination preferable to submission. The Marines would and do take land for which the people can show no title deeds, ignoring or disregarding the fact that paper will not last in Hayti, and that land is held in a baronial system which passes it from father to son by gift among witnesses. The Marines find it easy to discredit such testimony and to possess great areas for American growers of sisal. Such conditions have caused thousands of dispossessed Haytians to migrate into Cuba. Forceful Possession Forceful possession of the lands of the Haytians is necessary because they lo not sell land to foreigners, a rule that was established to preserve their limited area to Haytians against the results of foreign repacity as it has operated among other peoples in the world. Americans have prided themselves upon the introduction of such methods of farming as are used here, despising the methods of the Haytians as they despise their languages, which is a Creole patois and known to few outside of natives themselves. What the Haytians has discovered as necessary to the cultivation of coffee, that is the presence of overshadowing trees and shrubs, the American teacher of agriculture, condemns as lazy, nigger farming, and orders cleared away. Napoleon's Scheme Napoleon's Scheme It might be worth while to call America's attention to the fact that it was Haytians' defeat of Napoleon's scheme to plant a French settlement west of the Mississippi, using Haytii as the base of his operations that caused the sale of the Northwest Territory, which has added untold billions to America's coffers and made possible its orderly expansion to the Pacific. It might be noticed that there has been here no movietone showing of Haytians scenes and beautiful architecture, despite the fact that the situation has been in the public eye for many moons. Political science finds that any body of men with power will acquire more power, and, that militant, expectant canalists ride rough-shod over cultured people by trickery, fraud, lying, deceit and physical violence to acquire those possessions which give them distinction among their kind. The Congressional Medal of Honor was awarded to an Irish sergeant of marines who with blackened face engineered the betrayal and death of Charlemagne Paral, the Haytian partiot who defended his country so long and so successfully against invasion. Frederick Douglass Frederick Douglass resigned his post as American minister rather than negotiate for the purchase from Hayti of the Mole St. Nicholas as a coaling station for the United States. Time alone will show which of these actions is the more worthy of recognition. Already this country has become an empire, and it behooves the youth of intelligence to study world history and world events, if they would escape peasantry. FORUM CHURCH MUSIC TOO JAZZY To the Editor: I understand that one of our churches here in the city intends adding Folk songs to its choir. I heartily agree with this movement. Our present day so called sacred music is so permeated with jazz that it is hard to tell sometimes whether you are listening to church music or being entertained at a theatre. These Folk songs should not be forgotten, as they are the expressions of the souls of a people who were crushed by slavery. There was no limelight or bank roll in sight that caused the composition of these songs. But they are the cries from under a heavy burden not only in body but in Spirit. These cries formulated into words have been handed down to us and should be considered a rich legacy. Our music of THE LITERARY ALCOVE A COLUMN OF COMMENT AND DISCUSSION ON THINGS LITERARY. Contemporary American Literature, and particularly that phase of it which touches either directly or indirectly on the progress and present day achievement of brown folk is entering a new and increasingly interesting era. New names are springing up over the literary horizon. New reputations are being made. This is particularly true in the field of poetry. Two acknowledged leaders in publishing modern verse are Harold Vinal and Henry Harrison. During the past two or three years these men have notably enriched American verse, both through their own contributions to it and by publishing the verse of others. It is very interesting to note that Harold Vinal has published a volume of verse by Georgia Douglas Johnson entitled "An Autumn Love Cycle." Mr. Vinal's most recent adventure in editing is "Continental Anthologies: First Series" published in Paris by Roger LaCouriere and edited by himself. This volume includes poems by Cotton Noe, Marion Perham Gale, Marie Tello Phillips, Evelyn M. Watson and the writer. As the editor of "Voices" Mr. Vinal is well known. Henry Harrison is a poet, the former editor of "The Greenwich Village Quill", the author of a first volume of verse entitled "Myself Limited", and the publisher of "Poetry World." To the latter he contributes a lively column under the caption "Crazy Quilt." This column is unusually rich in news of the present day world of poets and poetry. In his 1928-29 "Anthology of Magazine Verse" Mr. Braithwaite says: "The Poetry World, sponsored by Henry Harrison, is something altogether different than anything we have had in the form of a poetry magazine, a sort of combined "Vanity Fair", 'New Yorker' of the poetry magazine world." In last week's issue of "The Saturday Review of Literature" William Rose Benet in his column entitled "Round About Parnassus" made the following interesting comment upon the poems of Henry Harrison: "In such poems as 'Nonchalently' (wholly graceful) and "Charitable Lady" (stingingly ironic) Harrison appears at his best, although elsewhere he is not without his ineptitudes. But he takes pain more often than is usual with minor poets. When he has reached the point of taking even more he will probably produce something valuable, for he is rather more sharply observant of life than his fellows." An Interesting Comment on the place of literature in contemporary life was made to the writer by Prof. J. R. Halbert of the University of Chicago. Prof. Halbert said: "Many people regard literature as an elegant accomplishment, an amusement for hours of weariness, an indoor substitute for an out-of-door sport. The real business is practical activity—in the case of men, money-making, in the case of women, housekeeping or money-making. Such a contrast rests on an entirely false idea of the value of literature. For literature is not merely an ornament or source of pleasure—it is our chief guild to the most serious thing in life, which is living. Making money—whether it be by digging ditches or by managing corporations—keeping house, all the daily activities of men and women are mere means toon end. They provide for the needs of our bodies but leave all that we regard as the higher part of ourselves, our mental, emotional, spiritual selves, unsatisfied. Literature is the expression of life, the commentary upon life, the revelation of the meaning and beauty of life, left to us by the men of deepest thought who have lived on our earth. Through the writings of men, we can learn the wonder of life and its beauties, we can learn to live in the fullest way." T. Thomas Fortune Fletcher and Richard Jefferson gave an interesting poetry recital in Harlem not very long ago. The Gumby Book Studio, where the recital was held, has recently heard readings from several writers. This Choice Morsel is from a recent issue of "Poetry World." "If you're sending any books of poetry to Constantinople, the Turkish post office will not recognize your neckage unless you change the city to Istanbul, which is its proper name. And Peking is Peiping, Christiania is Oslo, The Hague is Gravenhage, and St. Petersburg is Leninggrad...". today with its mixture of jazz sounds good to the ear and tickles the senses, but steal away to Jesus stirs the soul. Some of the objections raised here have already been eliminated. You do well to give us a better paper, which is large and a foot long, which cheapens the paper, I trust that. WHAT OTHER EDITORS SAY START WITH THE OLIVERS Whenever a tirade against the Negro is launched in Congress the public waves it away as just another demagogic diatribe by a Southerner who wishes to stand in with his constituents. Half the time they do not even think the Southerner really believes what he says; they picture him as laugh-up his sleeve at the fools who accept Negro-baiting as evidence of statesmanship. When they heard last week that a Congressman had attacked the Negro they mechanically looked for the name of a Southern state. To their astonishment they found that the assailant was a Congressman from New York City, Frank Oliver, who represents, or misrepresents, the Twenty-third district, which is in the Bronx. He is a Northern Democrat who hates the Negro more than many Southern Democrats. In his speech he praised the Government for its failure to enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, saying that this failure was more beneficial to civilization than any effort to enforce the Eighteenth Amendment. Such things impress an observer with the strange irony of American institutions. Americans listen to the garbage of men like Frank Oliver and then organize crime prevention bureau to guard the youth of the nation and teach it respect for the law. How can children respect the law when a Congressman stands up in the Capitol and flouts the provisions of the Constitution as something harmful to civilization? Children cannot be blamed for imitating their elders. When they see city magistrates with washed and Congressman spitting on the Constitution with impunity it is no wonder that they grow up regarding the law as an oppressor of the weak and a convenience for the strong. The new crime prevention bureau might get somewhere if it started on in men like Frank Oliver. The Amsterdam News. the "pledge" will be omitted as superflous youngsters who live in an environment of culture and refinement never fall into using vulgar colloquial expressions, if they should be so unfortunate as to hear the "term" on the streets or in the playgrounds at school among children who are plebeian because their home life is and repeated the same in the presence of their parents...do you not suppose the parents of these children would severely reprimand them? Why does the Tribune hang on as it were, to the old type "Society," with its flares and poor drawing? Why can we not call our social column "Social and Personal Activities in City and Suburbs?" (Printed in large, but conservative letters) is it not more refined? It eliminates the pleonastic drawing, "I Hear That"—Kitty's news comes under "Social Activities" any way. Since you are giving us a better paper, I infer the avenues to new and superior suggestions must be open. Will you accept them as they are offered for the progress of a morally, socially excellent paper, if not larger? G.L.M. is off the track again in his article about "Hallelujah." Mighty bad advice, indeed, to advocate the taking of one's life. Your statement "What man would not kill another for stealing his woman?" was very common. Ain't you old enough to know that no man can steal a true woman? A true woman can never be stolen. "He-men do it" is cheap talk. That's just what we need in the community, he-men who if killing must be done kill for being jim-crowed and for being burned out or for some other member of our family being burned. Would to God that Ware could find the culprit who burned out, he deserves killing. —J.R.C. Note! G.L.M. never advocated killing, but said he-men do it and so do she-women who have their men taken by other women. Court records prove it. This Reader Liked "Hallelujah" Very Much. Dear Editor: Concerning a write-up in February 7. paper (Tribune) on pages six, editorial features ("By J. L. M." on Hallelujah," I would like to say a few words. I saw Hallelujah five times in one week and also sent and paid for three (3) others to see it twice, because it had a lot of real natural things to see and hear and learn. There are some Negroes that act, and live and do just as picture shows and there is a lot of them that don't do such and never will do or act in such way. Some of the white man's doings against us helps to make us better and prosperous. Why don't you say something about the good parts of the picture here, is one, the Negro is and was very religious and always gave thanks. It helps to shame us and teach us the good and bad part of things. Did I learn anything from the show, yes, yes lots! KIDDIES REPORT REIGN OF TERROR CAUSED BY RUFFIANS BILIOUS "About three years ago I had bilious spells," says Mrs. Charles Perkins, 3929 Twelfth Avenue, North, Birmingham, Ala. "When I would let myself get bilious, I would have severe headaches, and feel very bad after one of these headaches. But after I would take Black-Draught, my head would get easy, and it would be some time before I had another spell. I certainly can recommend Black-Draught for biliousness and constipation."

THEDFORD'S Black-Draught For Constipation, Indigestion, Billiousness DON'T FORGET TO TELL YOUR FRIENDS BIGGER AND BETTER WASHINGTON TRIBUNE Now 7c ARREST OF YOUTH MAY END "PENNY RACKET" GANG Children Robbed of Movie Money on Way to Theatres Here Will the arrest of Joseph Davis, 1822 Fourteenth street, northwest, bring an end to the "penny racket" that has been terrorizing younger children in the northwest section for several months? Davis was arrested and held for investigation by officers of the No. 8 precinct, when it was alleged that he was the leader of a gang who made a practice of holding up younger boys on their way to the movies and robbing them of their pennies given them by their parents. The practice had spread to such an alarming degree in recent weeks that special officers were detailed to the various theatres to keep a close vigil for the offenders. Smaller boys in an effort to protect their money would go to the Dunbarn Theatre early in the morning before show hours and deposit their admission price with Mrs Cordelia Lyles, the candy butcher, and get it upon their return later. This was the only way they could insure themselves against the strong arm squad, said to have been led by Davis, who would riff their pockets and threaten them if they disclosed the identity of their attackers. No information could be gleaned from the smaller children, who were cowed into silence. Mr. Raymond Murray, manager of the Dunbarn Theatre, which caters largely to the younger children of the neighborhood, told the Tribune that the outrage became so prevalent that he even offered to buy off the raiders, but could not get them to admit their guilt. Children are said to have also hidden their, money in their shoes in order to keep from being robbed. Youth 19 Dead When Rival Uses Shotgun INDIANAPOLIS, IND—Gentry Young, 19, 107 Blake street, was shot dead Wednesday night of last week and William Hayes Johnson, 18,316 Blake street, is being held on a charge of murder. Police said the two quarreled over the affections of Miss Mabel Miller, 540 Agnes street. The hated controversy with Miss Miller as the bone of contention, took place at the Johnson Blake street home. Johnson is alleged to have fired one charge from a double barrel shotgun which struck Young in the head.

"It Pays to Advertise" Says Prudential Bank That it pays to advertise, is evident by the results obtained by The Prudential Bank, since October 31, 1929. During October the Prudential inaugurated an advertising campaign on Thrift and Savings. From October 31 to December 31, the Prudential was the only bank in a list of 22 to gain in deposits. In January, the Prudential gained $28,000 in deposits and up to Wednesday of this week, it had gained $37,000 in deposits for this month, making a total of $63,000 for this year and raising the resources to $570,000. The Prudential attributes much of this gain to its constituent advertising campaign. It has more than 10,000 depositors. Every precaution is taken by the Prudential to safeguard its funds against hold up and burglary. It has installed the latest electrical connection with the police department, so that the alarm could be turned in from six different places in the bank. Even if robbers succeeded in forcing the clerks into the vault there is a megaphone arranged direct to the police. The Christmas Savings Club is one of the most popular departments with the patrons.

Theatre No name in motion pictures is better known than that of Pauline Frederick. Brought from the stage to star in "The Eternal City" for the screen, she remained long enough to make her name world famous and then returned to her first love, the stage. It took the perfection of the Vitaphone to win her back to pictures and to a long time contract with Warner. Brothers. "EVIDENCE," famous English society drama, coming to the Booker T. Theatre, is an all-talking Vitaphone special, is the first picture made under that contract and in company with the finest supporting cast that could be gathered from stage and screen. Miss Frederick started her stage career as a young girl with Rogers Brothers in the Knickerbocker theatre in New York in a play called "Harvard." She rose rapidly in popularity as her ability became evident and she was soon starred in stage productions, making famous her roles in such plays as "Titania." In 1915 she came to pictures to play as the star in "The Eternal City" and from that time on she became one of the most popular of all screen actresses. Of recent years she again essayed stage roles, touring England, Australia and New Zealand with marked success. Her plans called for a return to England for the season of 1929 but Warner Brothers persuade THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 14. 1930 MISS HIBROWN, I THINK A MAN WHO TRIFLES WITH A WOMAN'S HEART IS A CONTEMPTIBLE CUR, A SCALAWAG AND A BUM!

What does it mean to you? A few days ago sitting in a prominent theater this problem first confronted me. The plans of the picture so perfectly carried out; everything seemed so perfect. Truly, the picture proved the awakening of love to the individual. The world has faced other awakenings, science, law, one of the greatest however was the awakening of modern civilization. But you, as members of the Negro race have faced a greater one of the Negro. The rapidity of this great awakening has astonished every race of the world. Only a few years past the Negro was considered the most backward race. Because of this they were treated as animals. They were not given a chance to prove their intelligence. Have we proven it? Let's see! Let us make an imaginary picture of what we would have seen if we could have been standing on a mountain viewing a plantation about 1860. We would see the Negro coming in from the fields of toil. We would see him enslaved by the white man. He knows no other life but that of untold misery. He is to be pitied! Was he? Has he a chance? With this picture clear in your mind, do you think the Negro will ever rise from oblivion? Looks doubtful doesn't it? Now let's go on to 1875. Can you see any hopes after ten years of freedom? Yes, there are great hopes. We see in the Negro a brilliant future. His ambition is aroused; and he is striving forth every day. The awakening had begun. He has awakened from the fields of doubt. The forefathers' prayers are answered. He is free. The awakening! Have we awakened in the professional fields like other races have? The answer is yes. We have had men to prove that an oratorical instinct is not only for men of other races but for our race as well. Booker T. Washington and Frederick Douglass, men born in obscurity, rose to fame. Little fellows born on their masters' plantations fed out of troughs as pigs rising to fame among the race that kept him in oblivion. There must have been an awakening! These men had the power of stability. The names of these men should be music to the Negros' ear. Their names will forever be linked with history. Men of our race have successfully studied in other professional fields: music, science, and law. We have had men to study in the broad fields of education; they are becoming wider every day. Education is the keynote to a greater awakening. Only through education we shall rise. Shall we rise? Yes, boys and girls of the Negro race, let's rise up and continue the awakening.

Evelyn is a student at Dunbar High School. THE CHICKEN HAWK Farmer Black, who lived in Maryland, owned a hewnery. He had a big lot divided into sections, in each of which he had houses for the chickens of all varieties—white laghorns, Plymouth Rocks, Rhode Island reds, and black Spanish. He fed them every morning and noon. Each day a chicken was missing that could not be accounted for, so he and his son began watching for the thief. Once when all was quiet the son saw a large bird come down and grab a hen, the boy shot the bird, the father told him that the bird was a hawk. He has never had any trouble from that day to this with his chickens. John Simms (11) 1921 9th St., N.W. BETTER NEGRO CITIZENS We as a colored race should try try.

We could read many books, but without good books, we will not learn anything that will help us. Always do the best you can, and the best, will come back to you.

AND WHAT I SAID HE WAS STILL GOES! THATIBEWS Some Movie Tricks That The Talkies Have Tabooed "Love making isn't what it used to be—in pictures," says Pauline Fredeck, star of "Evidence," the all-talking Warner Bros. and Vitaphone picture now at the Booker T. Theatre. "Vitaphone has changed the technique—and the tone of romance. "Heaving chests are out. They are apt to sound asthmatic under the microphone. "Long kisses are impossible, especially when principals begin to gasp for breath in the dead, vast and middle of them. "Resounding smacks sound as though the lovely heroine were being spanked instead of kissed. "Ardent hugs invariably disclose a creaking rib or a corset stay that snaps at the crucial moment. "While motion pictures have found their voice, romance has been forced to assume a chaste and modest silence on the screen!" Miss Frederick returned to the screen after a few years' absence while she toured the world on the legitimate stage. During that absence, talking pictures came into their own—and now she is head over heels in the talkies. Miss Frederick made "Evidence" for Warner Brothers as the first of a series of pictures under a new contract. Her romantic scenes with Conway Tearle, Lowell Sherman and William Courtenay, who play opposite her, have been modeled on the above rules, according to Miss Frederick.

To End a Cough In a Hurry, Mix This at Home To end a stubborn cough quickly, it is important to soothe and heal the inflamed membranes, get rid of the germs and also help the system inwardly to help throw off the trouble. For these purposes, here is a homemade medicine, far better than anything you could buy at 3 times the cost. From any druggist, get 2½ ounces of Pinex. Mix in a bottle, and add plain granulated sugar syrup to fill up the pint. This takes but a moment, and makes a remedy so effective that you will never do without, once you have used it. Keeps perfectly, and children like it. This remedy does three necessary things. First, it loosens the phlegm. Second, it soothes away the inflammation. Third, it is absorbed into the blood, where it acts directly on the bronchial tubes. This explains why it brings such quick relief, even in the severe bronchial infection. The cold epidermis. Pinex is in a highly compound of genuine Norwegian Pine, containing the active agent of crocoseis, in a refined, palatable form, and known as one of the greatest healing grants for severe coughs, chest colds and bronchial troubles.

LAX-ANA (Double Strength) Ga. Negro Dies on Pyre SHERIFF LOOKS ON Tenant Farmer Victim of Mob After White Woman Is Found Slain OCILLA, Ga., Feb. (C. N. S.) Early Sunday some 600 armed planters, business men, overseers and their hangers-on took Jimmy Irvine, farm tenant, from the hands of the sheriff in the very center of town, carried him out into the country, carved him horribly with pocket knives, stabbed him in the throat, placed him on a pile of logs, saturated him and the logs with gasoline, and burned him. Irvine's only offense was that he was said to have been seen driving a mule hitched to a wagon, in the vicinity of a spot where it was afterward said, the body of a murdered girl was found. The body was said to have been placed near the highway. Dozen of white employers might have also passed that way but only the Negro tenant farmer was lynched. Sheriff W. C. Tyler of Idwin County went to Mystic and arrested Irvin, then took him to Ocilla and turned him over to the lynchers. Tyler calmly asserted that he "could not identify any of the mob" which traveled in 100 automobiles. He excused their actions with a voluntary statement that while alone and unprotected in the sheriff's hands, Irvine "had confessed to him." The contributions to the Community Chest are falling behind last year's amount. Last year Kelly Miller's division secured more than 8,000 pledges amounting to more than $30,000. Up to Wednesday night, this same division, which was much better organized and had far more workers, who promised to solicit during this campaign, had about 5,000 pledges amounting to only $20,239.43. "The amount raised by each division and reported up to Wednesday night is as follows: Dr. Dorothy Boulding, division 31, $1,945.25; J. W. Baddy, division 32, $1,189.40; Harry Attwood, division 33, $6,586.95; Rev. Geo. C. Parker, division 34, $1,445.68; W. I. Blake, division 35, $3,777.40; and F. C. Johnson, division 36, $620.75.

C.N.S.—The fake apostles of peace, the Christian missionaries, are in a rage at the growing mass anger of the Chinese workers and peasants against their holding special privileges in China and are violently protesting against the retreat of the British as seen in their agreement to surrender extra-territoriality privileges and leave the Christian missionaries to work on their own, without the backing of the armed forces of the powers. The Christian missionaries of the various countries, remembering how well they have served the cause of imperialism and aided the enslavement of the colonial masses, now consider themselves as being betrayed by their imperialist masters and are bewailing the fact that with the withdrawal of their special privileges they may have to surrender some of the hugh loot in valuable properties which they have stolen from the Chinese masses. Missionary properties in China are said to be worth several billion dollars. So Good Hair Grower Grows long, silky hair recommended by your doctor for scalp diseases.

HAMILTON ELECTED TO HEAD ORGANIZATION Progressive Group Victorious In Annual Election Of Officers A long brewing controversy came to a sudden termination Monday night when Mrs. Frances Boyce, president of the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A. for the past 15 years was swept out of office and Mrs. Julia West Hamilton was elected for the ensuing year at the annual election of officers, Monday night. To be elected President of the Y. W. C. A. and Treasurer of the Women's Relief Corps, of the Department of the Potomac, auxiliary to the G. A. R. for the 17th term on the same night was the experience of Mrs. Hamilton. Although she was absent, the progressive element on the board of directors of the Y. W. C. A. elected Mrs. Hamilton, president by a vote of 10 to 4 over Mrs. Frances Boyce who had served for 15 years as president of Phyllis Wheatley. Seeing the trend of the progressive element at the recent election of board members when Miss E. F. G. Merritt received the highest vote, 47, and Mrs. Hamilton second highest, 46, and Mrs. Poyce only 31, which was next to the lowest, 30, someone suggested to Mrs. Boyce to present her resignation at the meeting on Monday night and she would be given a vote of confidence and reelected, which would offset the effect of receiving next to the lowest vote for membership to the board. She offered her resignation and to the amazement of her friends, it was accepted. Miss Merritt however, nominated her for President and lectured the progressives. However, the lecture had the opposite effect and when the vote was counted Mrs. Hamilton, although absent, was elected by 10 to 4. Wanted New Life Some of the progressives were of the opinion that the Phyllis Wheatley had become an institution of the classes and therefore failed to attract the masses. The F. W. has become stagnant and has failed utterly to attract the girls for whom the Phyllis Wheatley building was erected. They want new blood in the official staff so as devise a progressive and attractive program to reach and serve the people, it was pointed out. No Plans Yet When asked about her program Mrs. Hamilton said that she had not been officially notified of her election, as she was not present Monday night, and therefore, had nothing to say. If I have been elected president, I did not want the position for I have my hands full already and do not care for added responsibilities. I have no plans for I was not expecting to be the president. FIRST CASE FI WITH SA Emancipation Proclamation Prevented Case From Being Settled The first case filed when the United States Court was established on D street in 1863 was a suit for the recovery of Negro slaves who had been given in payment of a promissory note. The brief written by an expert pensman set fourth that Charles Sherman sued William Mix who was then in possession of three slaves, Henry, a cook; Rose, a house servant; Anne, a girl of 12; and Lou, a house servant. Henry he valued at $219, Rose atat $481; Anne $800 and Lou $438. They had been sold at public auction with other slaves, lands, and chatties by Sutter, Lee and Co., Bankers of this city when the original owner failed to pay a note of $4,100.

LINCOLN A Lincoln heirloom turned up here this week in the form of an imported shawl formerly worn by Mrs. Sarah M. Lincoln, wife of the lamented President, —Abraham Lincoln. Mrs. Nellie Z. Turner, proprietress of the Nels-Art Cosmetic Company at 1417 U Street, northwest, owns the shawl and has it on display this week, in her show window, in commemoration of Lincoln's birthday. Mrs. Turner lived in Springfield, Ill. She was a Miss Nellie Z. Sydes before her marriage. As a girl she knew a Mrs. N. H. Florville, a colored woman who was a friend of her parents, the Rev. and Mrs. Sydes of the A. M. E. Church. Mrs. Florville was a friend of Mrs. Lincoln and when Mrs. Lincoln returned from Washington, she gave this shawl to Mrs. Florville. As Mrs. Florville was aging and wishing to place the shawl in good hands, she gave it to Miss Sydes. When Mrs. Turner came to Washington a little more than two years ago, she brought the prized shawl with her. During the week of Lincoln's birthday last year, she had the shawl on display in the window as she has this week. A Rosenwald collector called on her then and offered to purchase it, but did not set a price but asked Mrs. Turner to price it. Not wishing to part with this prized present, she would not name a price and the sale was not made. However, he stated that the shawl was an imported one and could not be obtained today. He also stated that it must have cost from $60.00 to $75.00 when it was purchased. THE MUSICIAN Josephine Baker Who Set White Parisians to Duel STOKES, NOT PRES. JOHNSON, BLAMED FOR SMUTS CONFAB First Official Statement Concerning Visit of General Issue This Week The first official statement concerning the much discussed Smuts Conference held at Howard university recently was issued this week. This explanation does not come direct from president Johnson who has been bitterly criticized for his exclusion of the Negro press, but from the publicity department of the University. The statement follows: "Without desiring to enter into controversy, but to correct a mistaken impression that has gone out concerning the Smuts Conference at Howard University, a word of explanation to the Negro press seems to be timely. "The original suggestion of the conference was made by Dr. Anson Phelps Stokes, president of the Phelps-Stokes Fund. President Mordecai W. Johnson was glad to join with Dr. Stokes in calling the conference. "It was understood that no publicity was to be given to the conference except that which was to be sent out by the Phelps-Stokes Fund. For that reason no invitations, confidential or otherwise, were to the press. Even the Publicity Director of the university was not invited. The reporters who accompanied General Smuts were admitted only as a courtesy to the visitors. No Discussion "There was no discussion of the inter-racial situation in South Africa neither was there time for a public address, nor an address to the student body. The two hours were devoted to a consideration of the status and relation of the Negro in America, under eight headings with five-minute speeches by individuals previously designated. Other persons present at the conference joined in the discussion." RECTORTOWN, VA. Mrs. Julia White had as her guests last week-end her daughter and son-in-law, Prof. and Mrs. Kirksey, of Washington, D. C. Mr. and Mrs. W. C.

FACULTY MEMBERS IN HEATED DEBATE ON SEX PROBLEM Declare Sex Education Is Necessary To Normal Development The recent faculty meeting of the Randall Junior High School took the form of a symposium on the subject of Sex Education, whether or not it should be introduced into the junior high school; and if so, how? why? and by whom? "If for no other reason than its aim in helping individuals to prepare for higher and more efficient life, and the aid it offers in solving personal and inevitable sex problems," says Mrs. Toms, instructor in general science, "sex education has a definite place in the junior high school. The fact that this aim is only partially realized is not sufficient excuse for its neglect or exclusion. Method important "But the method used in teaching is equally as important as the teaching of sex," says Mrs. C. B. Gordon, instructor in Domestic Art. "The strategic point of attack is among the parents; and this attack should be made by the principals who should begin with conferences and educate parents so that they may be able to recognize the need of definite sex instruction for their children. The idea of a happy home with a well regulated family cannot be safely divorced from a thorough knowledge of sex." Proper teacher "As a matter of fact," says Mrs. G. J. Hughes, instructor in Domestic Science, "the real problem of sex instruction lies in selecting proper teachers for the work. Better neglect it totally than have it distorted by teachers who are not qualified for it both by their training and their attitude toward sex. The requirements of the teachers in sex instruction are more than they normally are for other teachers. First of all, the teachers in this field must be equipped with a scientific knowledge of their subject in all its ramifications, as well as with a thorough mastery of the principles of pedagogy. Besides this their personal attitude toward sex must be clean and wholesome. It must be recognized at the outset that the subject proper is not nearly so important as the character of the teachers. Tact, sympathy, a thorough understanding, and the ability to set forth good examples are factors which lead unquestionably to successful sex instruction. Net Bed or Good Mrs. H. E. Marshall, the teacher of physical training for girls, believes that the sex impulse, like any other natural impulse, is neither good nor bad inherently, but has within it the capacity for developing and enriching character, as well as for its degradation and depravity, according as it is educated or neglected. The social implications of sex demand that a definite unit of such instruction be incorporated into the program of the junior high school.
