RUSH PROGRAM AT HOWARD DEMANDS NEW POSITION
Trustees And Committee Seek to Push Construction Projects
By Staff Correspondent
A special investigation by a Tribune reporter this week revealed that the alleged "storm clouds" at Howard University are not even a gentle puff. In the first place, Albert I. Cassell, university architect, is not to be ousted.
The investigation by this reporter showed that Mr. Cassell will be relieved of his duties as superintendent of buildings and grounds in order that he may speed up the work of the building program, at Howard.
There has been allotted to Howard a sum of nearly a million dollars for new buildings which have not been erected. The exact sum is $875,000, and include three buildings. For one building the sum of $225,000 is appropriated, another $390,000, and a third $460,000. The contract has not been let for some of these buildings. As a result the university stands to lose a half million dollars through inability to push this construction program.
Push Construction
When this matter was brought to the attention of the executive committee it was deemed advisable that Mr. Cassell be relieved of the maintenance position that he may be given full rein to rush the construction programs of the university.
Mr. Cassell first taught art at the university before the building program assumed its present proportions. In connection with his duties as teacher, he was given the maintenance work at an increase of $1,000 per year in salary. The board of trustees in conference with Mr. Cassell recently pointed out to him the importance of speed in erecting and the letting of contracts for buildings and approved of taking the added position of maintenance from his shoulders. Several expenditures over allotments were also brought to the attention of the board. This was called to the attention of Mr. Cassell, and he was warned. On one project he made good the sum of $500 which was over the allotment.

The name is John Hope, Jr., the son of John Hope, president of Morehouse College, has been suggested in connection with the new maintenance position, Mr. Hope

Melvin Walker Held For Grand Jury In Death of Fellow Employee
A dispute over a one dollar bet made during a crap game formed the basis o an a occasion water terminated in the fatal stabbing of Francis "Frenchy" Jones, 26, dairy employee, of 913 Twenty-sixth street, nrothwest, Saturday night. Melvin Walker, 23, was held for the action of the grand jury by a coroner's jury investigation the a coroner's jury investigating the death of Jones at the District Morgue, Tuesday.

Testimony showed that a group of employees of the Wise Brothers' Dairy were shooting crap in the locker room of the dairy when Jones refused to pay off a $1 "side" bet which Wagner had rightfully won. Owen Hinkle, also an employee, of $610 P street, northwest testified that after Jones and Walker had grappled following the argument, Walker left the scene and went into an adjoining room where Jones followed him and attacked him with milk bottles. Walker, then, is said to have pulled out his pocket knife and stabbed Jones in the chest, the knife penetrating the heart.
Jones was found lying on the sidewalk at Prospect street and Wisconsin avenue, several blocks away, and taken to Georgetown Hospital in an automobile driven by Vernon E. Frazier, 2124 L street northwest. He was pronounced

DISAPPROVE ACT OF REORGANIZING PINN'S CHURCH
Council of 101 Ministers
Vote to Rescind Action
Of Former Body
By a vote of 101 to 5 a council of Baptist churches in the District of Columbia refused to approve the act of a previous council in recognizing the Good Will Baptist Church, a split of the First Baptist Church, Georgetown, of which the Rev. James L. Finn is pastor. The Rev. Pinn was ousted from the pastorate of the First Baptist Church last summer.
The council was held last Wednesday at the Alexander Memorial Baptist Church, P street between Twenty-sixth and Twenty-seventh streets.
The council also refuse fellowship to the Good Will Baptist Church "until the regular and prox procedure is subscribed to and carried out in an orderly council." At the last council 114 churches were invited with 76 in attendance. There were 106 accredited delegates present. In a lengthy resolution the council set forth that a council was called November 24, 1931 which recommended that the Rev. Pinn and his followers from the First Baptist Church first secure letters of dismissal. This council adjoined until December 17 the same year to allow the ousted pastor and his followers time to secure their letters. In the second session of the council the Rev. Pinn presented 18 members not included in the first and failed to state what churches or places they held membership. He also presented about 24 names (Continued on page 14)

CHICAGO, Jan. (ANP)—A one-million dollar reward for loyalty and intelligence is enough to make anybody stand at attention in these days of depression. Such good fortune was laid at the threshold of the home of Mrs. Ernestine Wesley Brooks, of 4920 Washington Park court; this city, this week when it was learned that legal matters in respect to a bequest of more than one million dollars, made to her, had been cleared up.
Mrs. Brooks states that the amount of her bequest is in excess of $1,100,000 in cash and real estate. Most of this sum is in cash, checks for the cash having been delivered to her.
The bequest to the 27-year-old Chicago matron was made in the will of Mrs. E. V. Grosso, wealthy white woman of Beaumont, Texas, who died in Houston, Texas, in

Haitian Minister Says Ex-Soldier Was Never Island King
Minister Dantes Bellegarde, of Haiti, referred to Faustin Wirkus, marine sergeant and self-styled exking of La Gonave, an island which belongs to the Republic of Haiti, as a "pipe dreamer, fantastic and ridiculous." Wirkus addressed the National Geographic Society, last week, and told of his alleged experiences on the island. The man said he was made "king" of the tropical island by the natives after he had been there two years as district commander for the marines, then occupying Haiti.
When Minister Bellegarde was told of the marine he said, "Is that pipe dreamer in town?" His tales about La Gonave are fantastic and ridiculous. He is doing tremendous injury to my country by circulating such stories. He has done it more injury than three companies of marines. Of course he never was king of La Gonave. That island belongs to Haiti.
"Wirkus may have been elected king at some carnival, by half a dozen natives. He pictures the natives as savages, which also is ridiculous. I have protested against his stories many times, but to no avail. People are gullible and will believe anything." Wirkus told his audience of his "kingship" on the island and of the customs of the natives, their strange and primitive communal form of government, and their religious voodooism. He said the natives are polygamous and marriage does not exist among them.
(From Amsterdam News)
While prospective heirs from the center of Europe and all parts of America flocked here. Friday to begin their fights to inherit the $100,000,000 Wendel fortune, which was willed to charity at the death of an aged white recluse last March, attorneys for a 59-year-old Negro woman filed a claim which may eventually make their client one of the richest women in the world.
This latest claimant, Mrs. Blanche Wendel Hoffman, 25 Hunter street, Ossinging, a member of St. Phillip's Episcopal Church here at 216 West 134th street, and a resident of this city for more than twenty years, declares that she is the gr. granddaughter of Johann Gottlieb Mathias Wendel, founder of the fortune for which more than a score of "heirs" will battle. It is believed that the woman has one of the most direct claims in the group.
Tracing her descent back to a romance in 1798 between the founder of the fortune and Violet Wal Shinnecock, Mrs. Hoffman's great grandmother and the daughter of the chief of a tribe of Indians on Long Island, the woman filed her claim in behalf of herself, a sister, two brothers and five first cousins. She is seeking a share of the principal of the fortune with interest and compound interest. The names of the other claimants mentioned in her plea have not been revealed. Interviewed by The Armsterdam News at her Ossining home, Mrs. Hoffman, who is the wife of Deputy Sheriff John W. Hoffman of Plains, was quite frank in the discussion of her claim. She stated that she

CONGRESSMAN & MRS. DEPRIEST AT WHITE HOUSE
Among the 1,000 guests of President and Mrs. Herbert Hoover at the Congressional Reception held at the White House, Tuesday, were Congressman and Mrs. Oscar DePriest, of Illinois.
Congressman and Mrs. DePriest arrived at the White House at 9 o'clock, and after being greeted by the President, went into the East Room and remained an hour. Mrs. DePriest was gowned in a beautifully draped gown of egg-shell satin, made in bodices style, with a square neck and no sleeves. The drapery of the bodice was fastened with a diamond brooch and she wore diamond jewels and silver slippers.
Many Congressmen and their wives were met by Congressman and Mrs. DePriest. In 1929 when Mrs. DePriest attended a social affair at the White House, the South was left quite surprised and even took measures to condemn "social equality in the White House," by a leisurelature vote. The following year no reception was held and in 1931 Congressman and Mrs. DePriest again attended the White House reception.
SAYS COMPANY TOOK CHANCE ON COTTON AND LOST Mortimer Smith. Testifies To Insolvency of Company Six Years Ago
Claiming that the National Benefit Life Insurance Company has been insolvent since 1926, Mortimer F. Smith, former comptroller, was the feature witness in the sensational case which is being heard in the Supreme Court this week before Justice Daniel O'Donoghue. John R. Pinkett, first vice-president, is seeking a permanent receiver for the company declaring that it is insolvent. Hearings in the case began Tuesday after being postponed from Monday. Packed courtrooms attend every session. The decision of Justice O'Donoghue will hardly be rendered until next week.
Mortimer Smith was the first witness called. He remained on the stand all Tuesday morning and Wednesday afternoon. He was again called Thursday morning. Mr. Smith declared that he found that the company was insolvent back in 1924 and called it to the attention of the president and secretary-manager. He said it was in that year that a series of transactions took place that threw a smoke screen over true conditions of the company. The most famous of these "deal" took place when 9,000 shares of treasury stock were sold to increase the capital stock and give the company a surplus. He said the deal was advised by the actuary firm of Miles Dawson and Son of New York, actuaries for the company. A syndicate of S. W. Rutherford, R. H. Rutherford and him (Continued on page 29).
HOWARD SLASHED HALF MILLION BY SUB-COMMITTEE
Freedmen's Get Increase of $3,480 Over 1932 Appropriation
Howard University's appropriation was slashed by nearly a half million dollars by a subcommittee of the House Appropriations Committee Monday.
A sum of $2,742,133 is allowed for Interior Department institutions. For Howard University there is recommended an appropriation of $1,075,000, which is $485,000 less than the current appropriation and $535,000 less than the budget figure. The subcommittee decided that a library building could be completed for $100,000, or $300,000 less than was recommended by the Budget Bureau. Similarly, the item for construction of a new heat, light and power system was reduced from $460,000 to $300,000.
Salaries at the university must be paid with $450,000, a renewal of the 1932 appropriation and $25,000 less than the Budget Bureau asked. General expenses were cut $50,000 to $252,000.
The bill carries $293,480 for salaries and subsistence and other miscellaneous expense at Freedman's Hospital which is the budget figure an $3,480 more than the C2 appropriation for these purposes. No new construction is provided for the hospital during the fiscal year 1933.

OF WHAT SERVICE ARE OUR SCHOOLS?
For the past two weeks parents have written to the
paper regarding the cutting down of the time supposedly to
be given their children in high school. This week the prin-
cipal of one of the schools has his say. .
At their best our public schools are not measuring up
to their opportunity. The sole object of a public school
should be service to the child. Public schools should-not-be
yun for the convenience of the principal and teachers, but for
the training and preparation of the child’s mind and char-
acter—preparing the child to live. Hundreds of children
Hever go beyond the public schools. Then the high school
should have a tangible program that will really train its
students for life. Only a small percentage of our high school
graduates go on to college. It is a pity to see some of the
boys and girls coming out of our high schools as graduates,
knowing this to be all the education they will get, yet they
have-no conception of life’s problems nor how or where they
can best fit into the scheme of living. Many cannot write
acoherent letter. Others have little or:no conception of what
they are going to do as their life's work. They go out seex-
ing work without really knowing what they. want....Tizy go
from place to place thinking they are looking for work and
are unable to say just what they want to do. *
Our high schools are turning out 127 young people this
week as graduates. How many of them know now what they
are going to do next week?
‘These are trying times. If graduates.cannot cope with
the situation, what hope have we for the undergraduates and
the untutored? What real service has the public school ren-
dered these 127 graduates?
To what extent has the high school assisted these young
people to develop their characters? How much has the school
stimulated their institutions? How many were: helped in
discovering their mental aptitude and how did the high
school train them? They turned out 127 boys and girls to
do what? What can they do? Of what real service are our
public schools? Do they exist for the employment of prin-
cipals and teachers, or’ are they maintained to serve and train
the children? Have these 127 graduates been-trained to the
extent that they’camtake their place in the world's work and
carry on or must everyone of them go on to a finishing
school before they can earn a living? Are we getting our
money’s worth out of our public schools?

BOB NELSON
Whether you know him or not, you will be glad for the
sake of the race, that Governor Gifford Pinchot of Pennsyl-
vania, has appointed Robert J. Nelson; of Reading, Penn-
sylvania, to be a member of the State Athletic Board. Mr.
Nelson is the only Negro to hold such a highly important
position in any State. The appointment as Boxing Com-
missioner carries with it, not only a sizeable salary, but as
well a splendid opportunity to serve the Negro athlete in the
State. No longer will it be possible to revoke the license of
a Negro contestant for the reason of color alone. At last the
contestant will get a square deal.
© But if you know Bob Nelson, you will be doubly glad
that he was the man chosen by Governor Pinchot. For he
is a square shooter, Genial, aggressive and dependable, he
has served with distinction as Commissioner of Civil Liber-
ties of the Elks. Under him this bureau has come to be of
definite service to the race. And it is to be.expected that in
his new office, he will prove again that he lives up to the true
test of leadership.

“SHOULD PRISONERS WORK?
By Louis N. Robinson
ig et en
ate Ne EN a ae gf en,
There is probably no greater
social-economi¢ problem facing a
large number of state and federal
prison administrators, during the
next tow years, than that covered
by the title of this book, “Should
Prisoners Work?”
Perhaps the average tax-payer
and citizen has not given this sub-
ject the thought necessary in order
to have a thorough and unbiased
opinion of the matter, erroneously
believing that the situation would
not affect him or at least believing
that legislation would solve all
problemas in connection therewith.
‘The author, in this one volume,
of 353 pages, has compiled all of
the current pertinent data on the
prison labor situation in America,
and has presented in a clear analy-
tical manner both sides of the
question of whether or not pris-
oners should be employed in pro-
ductive labor.
No tax-payer or member of any
labor organization should form a
‘definite conclusion on this subject
without first absorbing the facts
that are to be found in “Should
Prisoners Work?" for in the final
analysis it is the tax-payer on
whose shoulder the burden of the
prison problem will rest.
The sociological student will ap-
preciate the twenty-eight page
bibliography complete with def-
nite reference to every book, re-
Port, or other pertinent statistics

oners Work?”

KELLY MILLER Says:
THE NEGRO IS DIVIDING HIS
VOTE
The import and purport of the
accompanying correspondence will
be selt-revesling.
317 Western Avenue,
Shreveport, Louisiana,
January 6, 1982.
Dear Dean Miller:
Following your sound advice
relative to local registration in the
Democratic Party in the south, a
number of progressive and for-
ward looking citizens of our race
recently affiliated with this politi-
cal party and are encouraging
others of the grouup who expect to
have a voice in local government
to do likewise since all public of-
ficials in this state are elected in
the Democratic primary. This is
because they have no opposition
in the general election which fol-
lows the primary.
In our efforts to secure registra-
tion of others in the Democratic
Party, we find that we have arous-
ed from slumber the staid and con-
servative Republicans of the group
here who have been asleep for forty
years. They counsel us to wait
until the two party system be-
comes a reality, notwithstanding
the fact that they have had forty
years to bring such an elective sys-
tem about in the state and have
been unable to do so up to the
present time.
In opposition to them we hold
that the race in Shreveport must
have a new Civic and political
leadership whose actions will be
governed in the light of honor and
principal and that this leadership
must line the pene up in the
Democratic fold if they are to ever
have a political voice here. In
their rejoiner, the G.0.P. citizens
naturally play.up the sentiment of
loyalty to their party because it
was in power at the time the Ne-
gro was freed from physical
slavery,
If you will study the returns in
the last presidential election, which
broke some parts of the south, you
will find that Louisiana remained
traditionally in its Democratic
column, If ever there was a time
to set up the two party systems it
was then. But as you understand
this was as impossibe at that time
as it will be for some year to come.
In the very near future, we pro-
pose to issue a public statement
giving our reasons for the Demo-
cratic tie-up and quoting some
authorities on the matter whose

the authorship and the authenti-
city of two recent letters. which
have addressed themselves to. the
eoganization program at the Arm-
strong High Sheool, which in es-
sence is no different from that of
any of the other high schools of
over one thousand students.
| As these alleged parents eannot
be identified by our records at
Armstrong, you may be able to re-
late me to them. For the sake of
public knowledge, if such is really
needed, we begin our midyear re-
organization about two weeks in
advance of the closing of the sem-
ester. On February 1, each year,
all students are new, as they were
in September, The’ organization,
which the principal may spend the
entire summer to complete, has to
be consummated in a comparative-
ly short time. In addition to the
reorganization, the principal has
on his hand the midyear com-
mencement.
At Armstrong, a definite time is

ut no student is denied the right
of a record until the very last day
of the semester. Prospective grad-
juates are allowed until the last
possible moment before gradua-
tion to make their grades. For
obvious reasons, their names may
not appear on’ the printed pro-
gram, but no student at Armstrong
is denieq a last moment chance.
Already four teachers have chang-
ed their grades of students, and
tea or three seniors are still on
the “anxious seat.” Every oppor-
tunity is accorded students to make
their classes. No parent has a
just complaint, and 1 seriously

The free textbooks have made a
new problem. The principal is
held responsible for his textbooks.
He is a sum of money in

tioned relative to his stewardship.

So much is said of the importance of the automobile as a means of easy and economic transportation, that the importance of the automotive industry as a contributing factor to Washington's general economic welfare is completely overlooked by the average man, even by those who pride themselves on being conversant with the city's commercial activities.
At this time, when so much is being said and written about organizing our business enterprises to bring back prosperity, the Washington Automotive Trade Association believes Washington should know how much the industry which it represents contributes, not to the cultural and recreational life of the city, but to the direct financial wel-

fare of its wage earners and other business enterprises.
Asked to name the most important business activities of Washington, the average man or woman would probably include the automotive group among the first eight or ten, not knowing that the sale of automobiles and allied products, together, with their service and maintenance constitutes the third most important business in the city.
Consulting the figures of the United States Census Bureau we find that out of a total retail business of $331,873,844 done in Washington, 15 per cent, or a total of $50,215,080 is credited to the sale of new and used automobiles and allied products. We find that Washington has a total of 5,917 retail stores of all classes, and that the group represented by the Washington Automotive Trade Association has 573, or almost 10 per cent of the total. Turning to the matter of wage earners, the Census informs us that Washington has 39,502 people gainfully employed in the retail stores of the city. Of that number 3,865 are employed by the automotive group, again almost 10 per cent of the total. Employees naturally lead to the vitally important matter of pay-roll. Washington's retail payroll totals $43,694,510, of which that paid to employees of the automotive group reaches the imposing total of $6,202,907, rising to more than 14 per cent of the city's total.

Oldsmobile is introducing _at
eight-cylinder model for the firs
time this year. The eight-cylinde!
engine is mounted on the same
chassis as the Oldsmobile Six
which is larger and more powerful
than last year,
The long oval radiator shell in-
troduced last year by Oldsmobile
has been retained with modifica-
tions, while new lines of hood and
cowl accentuate the additional
length of chassis and bodies. The
profuse but artistic use of chrom-
ium plating provides an exterior
trimming in keeping with the lux-
urious finish of the interiors.
New mechanical features are a
selective ride regulator with dash
contro] and double-action hydraulic
shock absorbers; free wheeling
with improyed syncto-mesh trans-
mission and silent second gear; an
engine decarbornizer, “full. auto-
matic choke, improved down-draft
manifolding and carburetion on
both the six and the eight, with
dual carburetion and manifolding
on the eight-cylinder engine, high
compression cylinder head, auto-
matic heat control, oil temperature

More Power
‘The six-cylinder engine has been
given added power by increasing
the bore and enlarging the valves.
It develops 74 horsepower at 3200
revolutions per minute.
The new Oldsmobile straight
eight has a 3-inch bore and a 4%-
inch stroke. It developes 87 horse-
power. It is of L-head construc-
tion and the design closely follows
that of the six. The chief differ-
ence between the two engines is in
the carburetion and manifolding.
The eight has a duplex carburetor
and intake manifold with: separate
leads to two sets of four cylinders
each, thus providing equal fuel dis-
tribution to all cylinders.
An entirely new feature in autos
is the decarbonizer unit, which en-
ables an owner to remove carbon
from combustion chamber and valve
stems without effort and at a mini-
mum cost. When engine perform-
ance indicates the presence of car-
bon, an owner, on driving into his
garage at night, simply speeds up
the engine to approximately 50
miles an hot, presses a “plunger
with his foot and shuts off his igni-
tion. The following. morning he
starts his engine as usual ang the

A. A. A. Holds Sales Levy
Will Curtail New Car
Demand
‘With at least a dozen basic in-
dustries dependent upon the auto-
mobile industry as a major outlet
for their products, the American
Automobile Associations declared
today that a Federal sales tax on
automobiles will inevitably curtail
the demand for new cars and there-
by further contribute to unemploy-
ment by slowing-up production in
these other fields.
4,020,000 Employed
Pointing out that on January 1
there were approximately 4,020,000
people employed by the motor ve-
hicle and allied industries, a mil-
lion less than a year ago, the na-
tional motoring body said that the
proposed Federal levy would not
only threaten the jobs of thousands
now at work, but would further
postpone the time when other thou-
sands now unemployed would be
put back on the pay roll.
“The most severe blow to allied
interests from the slackening of
the motor industry” said the A.A.A.
“would be the railroads which dur-
ing 1981 handled more than 3,000,-
000 carloads of automotive freight,
or about 10 per cent of all carload
traffic. It is needless to point out
that the loss of freight made up of
motor vehicles and parts has al-
ready figured in two tmportant fi
nancial disasters in the field of rail
transportation.
“Those who have singled out new
car buyers as a class for a sales
tax, and it is eviccnt that any such
tax will promptly be passed on to
the purchaser of an automobile,
have apparently not considered
that they would retard the Bree.

motor industry.” The latter indus-

Hupmobile Shows Daring New Design in 1932 Cars
THE NEW HUPMOBILE DIGNIFIED BEAUTY
New Hupmobiles, "tailored" in a radically new design, are being exhibited at the Auto Show.
THE NEW AND IMPOSING ROCHNE OF STUDEBAKER'S LINE
Automatic Clutch Added To Ultra-Mdern Reo Car
Reo Motor Car Company, which presented its ultra-modern streamlined cars more than a year ago, has found it necessary to make few changes to make these cars conform to the most advanced 1932 standards, it was announced by officials.
"Form-fitting" fenders, massive V-shaped radiators, unusual body lines and metal sheathing that covers all unsightly projecting parts make the 1932 Hupmobiles truly different, those who have seen them have agreed.
Two six-cylinder cars and five "eights" have been provided by Hupmobile for the coming year.
Mechanical features of the new cars are: a newly-patented chassis torsional stabilizer; a quadruply-braced X-frame; seven-point rubber engine mounting, including rubber-mounted transmission; free wheeling; steel-braced body; oil temperature regulator, and a new type of recessed instrument panel with large, luminous dials.
Torsional Stabilizer
Of particular importance mechanically is Hupmobile's new chassis torsional stabilizer eliminates shimmy, roa! weave and general instability at high speeds. Structural engineers regard the triangular brace as the strongest bracing known. It is used in bridge construction, skyscrapers, ship building. Recognizing this principle, Hupmobile adapted it to the chassis torsional stabilizer. The stabilizer is formed by a series of connected Vees, made of steel tubes and angle iron bracing, firmly tying together body and chassis. Neither front or rear fenders make contact with the running-board thus eliminating rattles and

Reo Motor Car Company, which

changes to make these cars confo
dards, it was announced by officials.
The new automatic clutch is actuated by a control button located beside the clutch pedal. When the foot is rested on this button, the clutch pedal "loses its job." Gears can be shifted without touching the clutch, and the car is in free wheeling as long as the button is depressed. The braking power of the motor can be obtained instantly, however, by merely taking the foot off the control button.
Mechanical Feaures
Among the other features of the Reos for 1032 are adjustable front seats; cam-and-lever steering with anti-backlash, anti-shimmy shackling of springs; fully enclosed, two shoe, self-equalizing internal, hydraulic brakes with self-replenishing master cylinder; twin-plate clutch in Reo-Royale; Reo patented herringbone gear silent-second transmission; spiral beak, semi-doating rear axles with straddle mounted pinion and with tapered roller bearings throughout; nine-bearing counter-balanced crankshaft in Reo-Royale models and seven-bearing crankshaft in sixes, both fitted with vibration dampers and both pressure lubricated through oil ducts entirely drilled or cored, eliminating all oil tubes inside the crankcase.
While Reo's aerodynamic lines instrainaneously announce freshness and distinction, Reo has extended its departure from conventionality into many nooks and corners inside and out.
Thus, the Reo-Royale has interior sun visors, ash receivers that actually receive and hold the smokers' waste, cigarette lighters handily placed in front and rear compartments, wide pockets and a big space in the dash to hold all manner of objects, a sheath for newspapers and magazines, dome lights that work automatically when the loors are opened, individual windshield wipers and huge arm rests to supplement the arm-chair ease of ultra-modern motoring.
Combining the advantages of both the "composite" and the "structural steel" types of construction, bodies on the Reo motor cars give the greatest possible resistance to twist and strain, while providing stout safeguards against body rumble and roar and all squeaks and rattles, engineers have asserted. structural steel is used completely In this special construction,
providing double water drainage at the front and rear, which prevents rust accumulation. Both fenders are attached to the runningboards by bolts which pass through heavy rubber insulating blocks. The edges are turned under, eliminating the necessity of the old style wire-reinforced edge.
The safety steel running boards are corrugated for stiffness and greater strength, and are covered with anti-skid material. They are heavily braced, the stay arms being attached directly to the car frame. The hood is long, with the radiator filer cap placed under the left side. Its usual place is taken by a smart appearing chromium radiator ornament.
Improved Riding
In conjunction with Hupmobile's new X-frame and the torsional stabilizer, the riding qualities of the new models have been greatly improved. Much of this increase in riding comfort is due to the newly patterned bodies, which embody advanced construction principles, to the reduction of unsprung weight, and to the elimination of vibration through other features. Other developments adding to riding comfort include increased wheelbase, longer springs, new rubber silent-bloe spring shackles, and thermostatically controlled shock absorbers of greater capacity.

Says Negroes Can Obtain No Good from Communistic
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Congressman Oscar DePriest at the invitation of President J. R. E. Lee paid the Forida A and M. College a five hour visit, Wednesday. Congressman DePriest accompanied by a party of Jacksonville citizens headed by Attorneys Perkins Bowman and McGill, Rev. John A. Ford and Professor John Henry Adams and accompanied by Prof H. Manning Efferson as the representative of the school arrived on the campus about one thirty. Escorted by President Lee and several faculty members the party took the Congressman on a tour of the plant. Congressman DePriest was the first visitor of national significance to enter the recently completed $50,000 Practice School.
Warns of Reds
Congressman DePriest's remarks were practical, giving the students advice as to their conduct to attain success and the deportment that they must necessarily follow. He congratulated the president, the student body and the entire citizenry of the state upon the type of institution represented here. He then went into a sincere explanation of the communistic movement warning Negroes that they could obtain no good from such allying themselves with them. He attacked them on four points, (1) government ownership (2) government occupation (3) social equality and (4) religious viewpoint. He demonstrated that they had the wrong attitude on each.
WILKINSON HEADS TUBERCULOSIS COMMITTEE
Two new lines of positive action designed to uncover and remove the sources of tuberculous infection in Washington were taken yesterday at a well-attended meeting of the Board of Directors of the local Tuberculosis Association.
One move was the creation of a special committee to be known as the Tuberculosis Hospitalization Committee for the purpose of inducing Congress to appropriate the urgently needed funds for more hospital beds for adult tuberculonational capital city is far behind his patients. The fact that this the approved standard number of such beds has been widely known for a long time, but attention to the fact now is again directed because of the report just released by the Health Department showing that the number of deaths from tuberculosis here during 1921 was 590, a considerable increase over the number of such deaths in 1930.
The membership of this committee was left to the president of the association, Mrs. Ernest R. Grant, who presided at this meeting of the board. When seen last evening at her home, Mrs. Grant said that the committee's make-up had not yet been completed but that the names would be announced very soon.
The other action taken yesterday by the Tuberculosis Board was the decision to intensify the effort to find the new sources of tuberculosis and to protect the community further by enlisting various industrial concerns, commercial organizations and government officials in more effective means of safeguarding their own employees and thereby increasing their efficiency. This would go further than the holding of meetings for health lectures and would contemplate the organizing of special clinics in the various groups of adult workers where expert examination and diagnosis might be made from time to time.
Industrial Wealth Service
John Dolph, a member of the Board of the Association who has for many years been identified with the local agency of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company of New York, was appointed as the head of the new committee to carry on this work and which will be known as the Industrial Health Service Committee. Other members named to this committee were George A. Hastings, administrative assistant to President Hoover; Dr. F. C. Smith, assistant surgeon general of the U. S. Public Health Service; Wallace Hatch, chairman of the Health Committee of the Chamber of Commerce; and Miss Gertrude Bowling, executive director of the Instructive Visiting Nurse Society.
At the same time it was announced that the Association would employ an additional field worker after February 1 to aid in the educational campaign among the colored population of the city now being organized under a special committee headed by Assistant Superintendent of Public Schools Garnet C. Wilkinson, assisted by Dr. Chas. William White, and Dr. Chas. A. Tignor. This work is regarded as vital to the protection of the whole community.

"Tear-Drop" Body Design Seen Far In The Future
Streamlining, However, Is Gradually Being Introduced In New Car Models—The Airplane Influence
THE·NEW·HUPMOBILES
MOTT MOTORS, Incorporated
Although it has lately been the subject of a great deal of discussion in the automotive industry, general adoption of genuine teardrop design in body building is still a matter of the future, in the opinion of George M. Graham, vice-president in charge of sales of Rockne Motors Corporation. Instead, body builders will employ radical streamlining than that of the tear-drop design, Mr. Graham believes.
"The motor world has seen two or three examples of tear-drop building." Mr. Graham said, "but I believe the only examples of this building in stock cars are found in Europe, and I don't believe they have been very successful.
"The true value of tear-drop design comes after a car has passed into the terrificly high speeds above 100 miles an hour. When such volocities are attained streamlining is of the utmost importance. Yet the only tear-drop stock models we know of now are small cars with top speeds around fifty miles an hour.
"Tear-drop design will come sometime, but it seems far off now. There are several definite obstacles

in the way. The first and most important is the necessity of putting the motor at the rear of the car. That is a difficult engineering feat, and will only be satisfactorily accomplished after long study. It means a complete revolution of chassis building. By the same token, it also requires an entirely different handling of body. When our high cruising speeds remain around seventy miles an hour, we do not need the precise streamlining which tear-drop design gives. Streamlining, however, is one of the most interesting studies in automobile design, according to Mr. Graham.
"The airplane industry has given us much interesting data on streamlining," he pointed out. "All the things aero engineers learn in their wind-tunnels is of vital importance to the automobile manufacturer. It is surprising how a little cowling here, a little fairing there, or an aerodynamic touch somewhere else, will add to the speed of a car.
"Of course streamlining has only a minor effect when our cars are traveling at speeds of forty or fifty miles an hour. However, aero-
dynamic streamlining gives an ultra-modern appearance to a car and is quite worthwhile.
"But, as the speedometer crowns up to sixty-five and seventy miles an hour, the effect of streamlining becomes important. For instance, the other day we made a test with a stock car. We drove it for a mile a its highest speed. Then we removed the headlamps and drove the same course again. We found that removing the headlamps added four miles to the speed of the car. Even closing the windows on a sedan will increase the top speed two or three miles an hour."

PETERSBURG, Va. — The Annual Presidents' Day celebration was held at Virginia State College on Friday. The day was marked by a half holiday on the afternoon and by an appropriate program in Audience Hall at 8:00 o'clock in the evening. The college was established by a special act of the Virginia General Assembly in 1882.
Since its establishment, Virginia State College has had three presidents. John Mercer Langston, LL.D., was the first president. James Hugo Johnston, Ph.D., served the college in this capacity from 1887 to 1914. Doctor John M. Gandy, A.B., A.M., Ph.D., was elected to the presidency in 1914, and has served the college nobly in that capacity since that time.
The principal address for the celebration was delivered by Doctor William S. Nelson, President of Shaw University, Speaking on the subject "Education and Self-Realization" Doctor Nelson described the celebration as an "occasion for self-evaluation." Delving deeply into ancient and modern philosophy, the learned Doctor brilliantly and eloquently called the attention of his hearers to the fact that the end of education is the end of life itself, and that the end of life is self-realization.
Doctor J. E. H. Taylor of Washington, D.C., who graduated from the college in 1900, delivered an interesting address describing the college as it was during the time that he was a student here and contrasting the conditions of his day with the conditions of the present.
Miss Neutrice A. Wilson, a member of the present senior college class, spoke on the subject "What Virginia College Means to a Senior."
Music for the occasion was rendered by the college Choral Society under the direction of Alston W. Burleigh. The choral society sang two numbers. Hugh S. Robertson's
THIRTEEN
"Celtic Hymn" and N. Nathaniel Dett's masterpiece "Music in the Mine."
When Doctor Gandy became the president in 114 the physical plant of Virginia State College consisted of eight buildings and forty acres of land. The total value of the plant at that time was, according to careful appraisal, $272,322. The college flow has thirty three buildings, many of which are modern in every respect, and 300 acres of land 110 acres of which are used for the present site of the institution and the remaining 190 acres are used as the school farm where modern agriculture is taught and demonstrated. The value of the physical plant at the present time is $1,500,000, according to careful appraisal.
There were 350 students enrolled in the institution in 1914, all of whom were high school students. Gradually the enrollment has grown, and at the present time there are 600 college students enrolled in the laboratory high school. When the enrollment in the college's extension division and elementary practice schools are taken into consideration, the total enrollment reached the 1500 mark.

PINN'S CHURCH REORGANIZATION
(Continued from Page 1)
which he claimed belonged to First Baptist Church and had been denied letters.
On December 22 th$_{3}$ Rev. Pinn is alleged to have called a "Hand-picked" council kindly disposed to him, at which meeting the church was allegedly recognized.
At the meeting of churches and ministers last week it was pointed out that the First Baptist Church was not invited or represented at the former council, only one side of the argument was hecked by the council, the moderator changed the method of voting during the taking of a vote, the affirmative had only three to stand while others answered "present" in their seats.
The last council disapproved the action of the one on December 22 limiting the churches to a few select pastors and take the stand that no church is rightfully bound to grant letters to any member unless he or she comes in the spirit of Christ and churches are not organized to put a minister into the pastorate or save a man's reputation or hide his failure.
Dean Lucy Slowe to Address Randall Grads
The mid-year commencement exercises of the Randall Junior High School will be held in the school auditorium today at 10:30 o'clock. Dean Lucy D.

Student thoughts will be given by Myrtle Queen, Florence Golden, Charles Fleming and Doris Johnson, while the school glee club will render musical selections. Class officers are Charles Fleming, president; Arthur Caldwell, vice-president; Thelma Clomax, secretary; and George Allen, *teasurer*. G. Smith Wormley is principal.
Mrs. Beatrice Hayden Crowned "Miss America"
Mrs. Beatrice Hayden, a member of the Ladies Auxiliary to the James Reese Europe Post No. 5, of the American Legion, having received the highest number of votes, 6,506 to be exact, was crowned "Miss America of the Legion" last Thursday. She is considered the Legion's most popular lady for 1932 and gets a trip to New York with all expenses paid whenever she desire to go.
The Hospital Committee of the Auxiliary visited the Walter Reed Hospital and delivered magazines and cards to the patients. Many letters of thanks are now being received by the group for their contribution of baskets at Christmas time.
T. R. Penney to Address Literary Society at H.U.
As a forerunner to the celebration of Negro History Week, the Pestalozzi-Froebel Society of Howard University is offering a unique program at its next regular meeting in Library Hall, Tuesday, February 2, at 7:30 p.m. Besides several musical numbers by Negro composers, the program will include a surprise skit calculated to focus in memory of some of the high spots in the historical development of the Negro.

BLIND PREACHER CONDUCTS BIG REVIVAL
More Than 150 Persons Added to Vermont Avenue Baptist Church
With services morning, evening and night, Sunday, and the Rev. Roy A. Carter, well-known blind evangelist, the principal speaker on each occasion, the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church will bring to a close one of the greatest revivals in the history of the church this Sunday. In the morning, Rev. Carter will preach from the topic, "The Four-Cylinder Car," and as night, "The Opening of the Seven Seals," will be his topic. A special service for the women will take place in the afternoon with the Rev. Carter speaking on the subject. "A Painted Face."
Preaching on the subject, "A Spiritual Prize Fight; Champion Knocked out in Ten Rounds," at the church, Wednesday night, Rev. Carter presented a vivid description of Moses and the destruction of Pharaoh and his army. He outlined God's attack against Pharaoh and his people in ten rounds. Rev. Carter declared that no matter how much money, education or power we have, when God speaks we must come down.
Speaking of segregation, the evangelist stated, "Sometimes it is a good thing to be segregated, as it gives God and the church a chance."
The blind pastor reads a special-made Bible. The Bible was printed with "pointed raised letters," and Rev. Carter reads by means of his fingers. Rev. C. T. Murray, pastor of the Vermont Avenue Church, stated that "This was the greatest meeting held by the church in many years, and since the opening of the revival' services on January 10, 150 converts have been added to the church. An average attendance of over 1,000 each night has packed the church, and so large was the throng last Sunday that double services (upstairs and downstairs) were held."
Born in Madison County, La., and losing his sight at the age of six, the Rev. Carter received his early education at the Maryland School for the Blind. He entered the Howard University School of Theology in 1911, and graduated in 1914. In 1918, he was ordained as pastor of the Mount Olive Baptist Church, where he remained for eight years. Since that time he has conducted evangelistic meetings throughout the country. Rev. Carter will give a special lecture at the church, Wednesday night.

GRAHAM PAIGE'S BLUE STREAK ON DISPLAY AT THIS SHOW
Graham Offers Radical Changes In '32 Car
Graham Offers Radical Changes In '32 Car
New models of the Graham "Blue Streak" eight, of which the sedan was disclosed late in December, are displayed at the show. In addition, a six is introduced for the first time.
The eight-cylinder line includes three regular and four de luxe models, mounted on wheelbase of 123 inches and having ninety horsepower. The six-cylindr line has two models, a sedan and town sedan, with engine said to develop seventy horsepower.
Prices of the sixes are $765 for the town sedan and $795 for the sedan. The eights range in price from $995 to $1170.
The Graham eights are equipped with free wheeling operating in all forward speeds, synchro-silent gear-shift transmission and dash regulator of the shock absorbers.
The chief chassis feature is a deep "banjo" frame, with the rear axle extending through the expanded side rails. Instead of riding on top of the springs, high above the axles, the frame is cradled low between the springs, to which it is attached by outboard mountings. This construction is said to make for lower centre of gravity and wider spring base which allow the car to turn corners and curve at unusually high speed. The new models make

THE "SMOOTH" CHRYSLER
THE EVOLUTION OF THE AUTO SHOW
By Richard J. Murphy
(Manager Washington Automotive Trade Association)
The automobile industry is not yet old enough for historians to squabble about its birthplace and set out to dig up prehistoric vehicles than can be classed as motor cars. History does tell us however, that back in the 16th century self-propelled vehicles were being experimented with in Europe. In America we have authentic information that as far back as 1896 a motor propelled vehicle was built that would run; how far, or how long, is immaterial, it ran.
It was not until the beginning of the present century that the motor car really became a practical proposition.
Automobile shows were really an outgrowth of the bicycle shows which were originally held in the Madison Square Garden in New York City, and photographs of our first automobile shows, which were also held there, show a track running around the building, that the exhibitors could demonstrate that their machines really did run. Washington's first automobile show was held in 1905, in the old Washington Light Infantry Hall, located on what is now the park in front of the new Department of Commerce building. Reports from this first show indicate that it was a success, in that it created considerable interest among the buying public.
It was not until 1911 that a show was held here in Washington, as we have come to know an auto show. It took place in the old Convention Hall, at 5th and K streets, northwest, which is now the new Center Market. Two successful shows were held there, but then the building was no longer available for such purposes and from then until 1920 the various dealers in Washington held their showings during a stated week each year in their various showrooms. This was known as "Auto Show Week". This was recognized however, as a very poor substitute and so 191. the Washington Automotive Trade Association was organized and they set out as one of their first objectives the staging of a real, honest to goodness Auto Show, and under their auspices, this has been an annual event since then.
Negotiations were re-opened with the owners of Convention Hall with the result that their shows were held there annually until 1926.
When the Washington Auditorium was constructed, the Washington Automotive Trade Association was consulted by the Audito-
sive use of the streamline principle, the body, roof, radiator and fenders blending into smooth contours. The fenders show a novel treatment, with sweeping fore and aft lines, and full crown surfaces extended downward to conceal the springs, axles and steering connections.
Color instead of chromium plating is widely employed, and many of the exterior accessories have been eliminated to preserve the smooth-flowing lines. There are no fender or head light tie rods across the front, no parking lamps on fender or cowl, no exterior radiator cap.
The "Blue Streak" enginie now has an aluminum cylinder head said to permit higher compression ratio and give increased power, using ordinary grades of fuel.
Sound-deadening material has been used in body, chassis and engine. Heavy bolts instead of wood screws are used in joining the body units. Spring mountings are of the rubber compression type, to take up vibration. Improved braking action is said to result from the use of "centrifuse" drums within which rigid brake shoes, with increased braking area, operate. The new brakes are said to be cooler in operation.
Other features are cool gas fuel system designed to eliminate vapor lock, dual valve springs, and adjustable front and rear seats as well as clutch and brake pedals.
rium officials with a view of so constructing the building that it could be made suitable for the annual Auto Show. After the completion of the building until the present time, the Washington Show has been held in this building.
Each succeeding show has been better than the previous one for the lessons learned each year have been taken advantage of in the preparation of the following show. The prime purpose of each show has been to display in one building, for the benefit of the public, the best products of the motor car manufacturer. It has never been operated with an idea of a profit making proposition, the Washington Automotive Trade Association being content if it makes expenses.
A few years ago, the dealers associations of Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington got together and arranged that the dates of their respective shows would be consecutive, one show following another one, a week apart. As a result the Philadelphia Show is always the week immediately following the National Show in New York. Baltimore the week following Philadelphia, and Washington the week after Baltimore. The manufacturers were in hearty accord with this plan, and as a result, a great many of the displays that are shown in the Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington shows are the identical ones that were on exhibition in New York.
This year, for the first time in history, the manufacturers have agreed upon a definite period for the introduction of their new models and have selected the few weeks preceding their National Show in New York as being the ideal time for such introduction. This means that practically all of the cars are having their premier display during the auto show week in Washington, and the Washington public are having an opportunity for the first time.

ing cars on the market, Chevrolet, is now in a class to itself. The local dealers in the city here, headed by Benj. Ourisman, bespeak of what conserted efforts can do in giving service and promoting sales. Of course all models of this car will be on display at the show.
Oldsmobile
We are proud ourselves to speak of the Oldsmobile, because of the fact that it is the first factory to recognize the value of the Negro press. Mr. Palmer, the local factory representative, has always shown a very friendly attitude towards our group and our press. The line of Oldsmobiles to be found on display at the show will surely satisfy the most critical purchaser of a high-class car.

Mr. Herson, of the Manhattan Garage, is one of the most progressive dealers in the National Capital. He has been in the auto business for a number of years, and bespeaks of success by his many friends and customers. They carry a full line of accessories for the comfort in driving the car after the purchase and have one of the most complete lines of used cars in the city.

The dealers whose wares you see advertised herewith are of the most reliable type whom we feel free to command for their fair dealings with our group. We may not all be able to own new cars, but we can, any of us, have a very good used car. See one of the dealers who have advertisements in the Tribune for a good used car.
A Last Word About the Show
By all means visit the Auto Show
at the Washington Auditorium
during the week of January 30, to
february 6. Every courtesy will be
shown those of our group together
with others. This has been
assured us by Mr. Murphy. The
Auditorium is located on Nineteenth
street, northwest at the corner of
New York avenue. Street cars
pass by the door and ample park-
ing space has been provided for a
vast throng anticipated attending
the best auto show Washington has
yet held.
Auto Business Among First
(Continued From Page 11) whence come these tremendous sums. As might be expected, the chief source of these revenues is the sale of new and used automobiles. Washington spends $30,780,450 dollars for new cars during the last census year, and $1,075,728 for used cars. These sales were made from 66 new car agencies and 17 used car sales rooms. New car dealers paid out $3,233,831 for wages and salaries which added to $183,505 paid to employees of use car dealers gives us a total of $3,417,326 paid to 1824 employees, an average of $1,776 per employee. When one takes into consideration the fact that these figures do not include the salaries of owners and officers of the companies, this gives the automotive group an enviable standing with regard to its compensation of its employees. But this isn't all. The motor vehicle group pays to Washington property owners a total of $653,051 for rentals on premises which it occupies. Nor is this all. Other essential expenses, not including income taxes, cost of merchandise or return on invested capital an dallowing officers and executives only the salaries of ordinary full time employees, total $2,790,601. We see, then, the sale of new and used cars alone returns to Washington a total of $6,800,980 in wages, rents and other essential expenses, or more than one-fifth of the total income derived from the sale of automobiles.
In addition to this staggering sum, Washington has more than 450 stores selling service, gas, oil, accessories, tires and batteries, all of which are important providers of pay-rolls and rentals. There are 106 independent garages, employing 506 workers who earn $768,961, paying $739,806 for rent and $206,502 for other expenses. One hundred and twenty accessory stores employ 435 people who are paid $667,672. These same stores spend $204,289 for rentals and $329,283 for other expenses. Filling stations are also important, employing 975 people, supporting a payroll of $1,131,459, paying rentals of $234,241, and other expenses totaling $851,875. Other stores add another $40,000 to the total payroll.
Let's add all this up. It reaches the staggering total of $12,141,830 spent by the automotive industry right here in Washington. It includes nothing spent for merchandise, executive salaries or profits on invested capital; truly a showing.

Tabernacle Baptist
The pastor, Rev. E. J. Bradshaw, preached a very interesting sermon, last Sunday morning. His theme, "Freedom, the Great Revealer," was taken from the following Biblical verse: "And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them." Two persons joined at the close of the sermon.
The church has decided to open its revival services on Monday, February 1. The pastor has planned to conduct the services from February 1, through the 9th. On the 10th, a very fiery and efficient minister from Houston, Texas, is scheduled to conduct the balance of the services.
Pageant At St. Augustine's

Mother And Five Children Trapped In Burning Room
A woman and her family of five small children were trapped in their home in the rear of 1248 10th street, northwest, last Thursday, when fire caused by an over-heated oil stove, broke out and resulted in $250 damages. The woman, Mrs. James Lumpkin, was slightly burned, while her children, Cora, ten months, suffered five; and Katherine, ten, sustained severe burns of both hands. They were treated at Children's Hospital.
This question has often been asked would this race of ours fail, If they were to go in business upon a larger scale, Or on the other hand could they successfully make it run, My answer to that question is why, "Yes, it can be done."

Miller, Lyles Besieged For Pay
NEW YORK—(ANP)—Because "Sugar Hill" didn't do the business the management anticipated, the show was unable to pay off at the conclusion of its run at the Lafayette and angry actors and members of the cast besieged the producers and stars, Miller and Lyles. An adjustment was effected when a part payment varying from $5 to $18 was made on individual salaries. The trouble began in Philadelphia, it is said and followed the company on its ill-fated New York engagement.

Here comes the world's most famous shocker. Just a word of friendly warning. If you have a weak heart and cannot stand excitement of gruseness, we advise you not to see this production. Take our word for it, it will thrill, it will shock, it may even horrify you. But if your nerves can stand electrifying drama, you will find it in Braodway's next picture "Frankenstein," which opens Sunday.
James Whale directed it with a cast including Colvin Clive, Mae Clarke, John Boles, Boris Karloff, Edward Van Sloan, Dwight Frye and Frederick Kerr. It is the boldest thing he or any other director ever attempted. It is all about a man who made a monster. Bones and bits of humar bodies from gravevards and gallows trees went into the making of this eightfoot caricature of humanity. But alas he had the brain of a criminal and the fiendish furv of twenty maniacs. Don't fail to see what happened when this terrific monster escaped to prey upon terrified men and women.

THE TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JANUARY 29, 1932
X MARKS THE SPOT LINCOLN OPENING FEATURE
A thrilling newspaper drama, "X Marks the Spot," starting Friday, January 29, for a four-day run at the Lincoln theatre, ranks as an excellent piece of picture craftsmanship in every detail.
As entertainment it holds the audience from the opening until the close. The story has a speed and pace which sweep the observer with it. There are drama, thrills, comedy, mystery and action—every essential of absorbing screen entertainment.
Headed by Lew Cody, the cast is a notable and capable one. In the foremost role is Wallace Ford, star juvenile borrowed from Metro-Goldwyn for the role of Ted Lloyd, a newspaper columnist. Although a newcomer with but two pictures to his credit, Ford delivers a performance that stamps him as a real screen find.
Sally Blane, Fred Kohler and Mary Nolan have the principal supporting roles, with a surrounding cast that includes Hank Mann, Charles Middleton, Richard Tucker, Bradley Smith, Joyce Coad, Virginia Lee Corbin, Murray Smith and Bradley Page, and Clarence Muse.
The story revolves, about Ford in the character of Ted Lloyd, accused of killing a notorious show girl. Under tremendous obligations to a ganster, Ted later discovers that his benefactor is guilty of a sensational murder. He refuses to disclose his discovery, but later unwittingly leads the police to the hiding place of the killer. The murderer thinks Lloyd has betrayed him and vows revenge.—Fred Kohler has the role of the Gangster-killer. He has a gun smuggled to him in the courtroom and when pronounced guilty, he seizes a juryman whom he threatens to kill unless his demand is granted. He retreats to a barred room, still holding his prisoner, and sends word that unless the court officials send him in Ted Lloyd, who he says double crossed him, he will kill the juryman. Faced with the alternative of an innocent man's death, Ted borrows a gun and goes in after the murderer. In the fight that follows he is wounded but Riggs is killed. The ilimax of the picture is sheer drama, packed with thrills and tense situations. Erle Kenton is to be highly complimented on the directorial work shown in the clever handling of the dramatic elements of this absorbing photo-play.
Tuesday-Wednesday-Thursday Screen spectacle which passed out with the coming of the talkies may be seen in all its glory with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's return
Lucky Sam sez:
I Don't Claim To Be A Wizard Or A Miracle Man And Give Winners Every Day, But I Do Say That Anybody Who Follows My System Will Profit Greatly. I Have Proven This By My Seven Successful Years In New York.
I Don't Give You Every Possible Combination And Then Claim A Lot Of Winners. NO STARS, NO CIRCLES, NO HOOEY. Just A Scientific System Of Numbers That Means Winners.
showing of Ben-Hur, conceded to be the most spectacular film in the world. The picture, in which Ramon Novarro plays his greatest role, is now augmented with sound effects and will be shown February 2, 3 and 4, at the Lincoln Theatre.
Ben-Hur was directed by Fred Niblo, and the history of its three years in the making both in Italy and California, at a cost of four million dollars, is a real-life odyssey of enterprise and adventuring, culminating with the completion of the gigantic Antioch circus and race course and the filming of the great chariot race between the Jew, Ben-Hur and the Roman, Messala. The addition of sound makes the spectacular nature of these gigantic scenes even more vivid and impressive for in the chariot scenes the audience is now able to hear the thrilling cheers of the spectators. The effect of sound is again made apparent in the terrific sea battle in which the shouts of the fighter and the goons of the wounded make for an amazing realism.
Shearer-Montgomery Talkie at Booker-T
When Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer invaded Broadway and bought its most popular hit of last season, "Private Lives," it certainly must have had a co-starring arrangement for Norma Shearer and Robert Montgomery in mind. For, in the mind of this reviewer, no two other players in pictures today could have done justice to the sparkling Noel Coward play as have this grand team.
As Amanda, the wife who discards her husband for another, more for spite than anything else, Miss Shearer achieves the finest portrayal we have beheld since the advent of talkies. She has always shown considerable bromisg along these lines but the present vehicle proves beyond all conjecture her adroitness in this type of role. Montgomery, as Elyot, who also weds again, only to reent without much leisure, is splendid and matches her skill with a cyclonic performance. Reginald Denny, Una Merkel, Jean Hersholt and George Davis round out the brilliant cast assembled by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer for this priceless production. If this doesn't get the laughs, then there isn't any use trying in these depressive days.
Union University Plavers Present "The Silver Cord"
RICHMOND, Va.—The Virginia Union University Players presented Sidney Howard's "The Silver Cord" as a stage presentation at Coburn Auditorium and drew forth unanimous praise from the large audience present.
The play was a beautiful portrayal of a mother's love for her two sons and her resentment when two beautiful young ladies, the wife of her son, David, and the fiancee of Rob, encroach upon this love; and of the difficulties arising out of this encounter.
The Virginia Union Player's Program was sponsored by the Concert Committee: Miss Martha L. Smith, Chairman, Dr. C. C. Cooke, Mr. E. P. Simms, Mr. A. P. Watson, Mrs. R. W. Logan, Mr. J. R. Picott, Mr. W. M. Daniels, Mr. J. E. Grant, and Mr. H. G. Lewis.

Cmmunity Centers To
Start Athletic Program
By E. B, HENDERSON
(Superviscr Bovs’ Athleties)
Beginning Tuesday, February 2,
the Community Centers will inaug-
urate a winter sports tournament
for colored boys. The first sport
will be basketball for senior and
junior teams representing various
community clubs and institutions.
Basketball, however, will be only
one of the sports activities in which
clab representatives will engage,
Among the tournament cvents
are volley ball, handball, paddle
tennis, wrestling, tumbling, and
ping pong. A large trophy will be
fawaeded for a year’s possession to
the club or institution that wins
the greatest number of points dur-
ing the season. Winning first hon-
ors in senior basketball brings 100
points, and winning second, third
and fourth places count 75, 50, and
25 for respective places. First place
in the junior league brings 75
points. " Velley ball, handball,
tumbling and wrestling bring 50
points for championship _perform-
ances with 30, 20 and 10 points
following to runner-up and teams
in order. Ping pong and paddle
tennis bring 30 points to winning
club entrants.
This plan, of activity for Com-
munity Centers was developed to
encourage athletic clubs ‘and insti-
tutions to foster a varied athletic
program for is members, many of
whom do not lean toward the team
games, During the winter season,
too often, only the recreative need:
of the lagrer, stronger boys, are
met in our programs, These indi-
vidual events are sponsored so that
there shall be large carry-over val-
ues for individuals when they can
not meet with large groups on ex-
Pensive courts and fields.
‘The following clubs and institu-
tions have entered the contests ar-
ranged for by the Community Cen-
ters: Anacostia A.C., Shaw Night
School A.A., Armstrong Night
School A.A. Georgetown A.C.,
Dunbar Community Center teams,
Garnet-Patterson Community Cen-
ter teams, the Manchester A.C., the
I Streeters A.C, Cardozo Play-
ground A.C. the Pleasant Plains 3
» the South E ast A.C., ang oth-
ers. For basketball, entries close
at the last of the week.
Community Center secretaries
and play leaders are in charge of
the arrangemnets. The basketball
games are being held in the gym-
nasiums of Garnet-Patterson, Fyan-
cis, and Dunbar High Schools,

the Rens, sank six field goals and
seven baskets from the charity

Jan. 29—Howard at Baltimore. Armstrong vs. Manchester A.C. Dunbar vs. Elks A.C. Feb. 1—Dunbar vs. Cardozo. Feb. 3—Armstrong at Douglass Howard Hi at Cardozo. Firing on the championship front was extremely light during the past week, due to semester examinations. The basetball race is on in full vigor. Four conference games will be played, which will complete the first third of the schedule and give a far more accurate ranking of the teams than is possible now
Friday. Howard meets the conference leaders, Douglass, in Baltimore, in the feature affair. A battle royal is contemplated when the two conference leaders clash. Douglass has won its first three conference encounters, while Howard has met one set back by Armstrong. Yet Howard is leading the conference offensively with an average of 26 points per game, while the Douglass outfit is in second place with an average of 25 points per game.
There will be a couple of great court struggles when Dunbar and Cardozo come together, Monday, in Dunbar's gymnasium. Both of these teams are in the second division, each having lost their first two conference tilts. And on Wednesday Armstrong travels to Baltimore for their second engagement with Douglass this season. When they met earlier in the season the Douglass team finished with a two-point margin.
A real Howard basketball cyclone swept over Dunbar last Friday afternoon, and when the wind died down a drooping Poet court team had to admit a decisive 31 to 28 drubbing at the hands of the visitors. The final score does not indicate the intensiveness of the struggle. The score knotted at 8 to 8, 13 to 13, 15 to 15, 22 to 22, 25 to 25, 27 to 27, and an over time period with the final score 31 to 28 in favor of Howard High. Benson, Loper and Redding pelted the basket unmercifully for Howard, while Minns, E. Yearwood, Wedlock and Pree were excelling for the Poets. Coach Perkins made several combination shifts in order to check the swift-moving Howardites.

Morris Brown Cagers Open Season with 4 Victories
ATLANTA, Ga.—Coming forth with an unusual dash toward conference supremacy, the cagers of Morris Brown University opened their season this week with four victories within five days. They swampee Harvey's Collegians 65 to 16 on Monday night, at Atlanta. Then they invaded Tuskegee where they defeated the Tigers 20 to 20 Tuesday night and 33 to 27 on Wednesday night. With one day's rest the Wolverines returned to Atlanta and subdued the game Morehouse Tigers on Friday evening 30 and 22.
Coach Billy Nicks of the Wolverine squad has groomed what promises to be a super-dangerous team and if the expected development is realized the Wolverines are sure shots for the Southern Conference Championship this season.
In the opening shows, Frazier, Drafton Roberts, Req Bradley, and D. Smith have shown great form at forward and superb floor work Captain Abe Walker has had no peer at center, while Speets Bright and Jim Reed proved stalwart and dependable guards. Among their opponents, Smallwood and Williams, Tuskegee forwards, and Buggs of Morehouse were dangerous threats and sure shots on the basket.
Weak Spots To Be Covered As Team Prepares For Banner Season
PITTSBURGH, Pa.—(W.P.S.)—Although the managerial position still hangs in the balance, it is reported that Crawfords' 1932 contracts will be mailed to players on January 16. All 1931 players will be included in this first calling. After a checkup which will consume about ten days, new applications will be considered.
This 'announcement carries two important meanings. The first is, that the Crawfords' manager has already been named or will be named by the time this goes to press. The other meaning carries the owners' appreciation to those players who worked so hard to make Crawfords the sensational first-year team that it was.
It goes without saying that the Crawfords had weak spots in 1931. And it is safe to presume that in 1932 some positions will be covered as others. But even with last year's team and its weak places, Hildale was the only team that Crawfords never defeated. They dropped two in a row to Hildale: 5-3 and 2-1.
After being beaten twice by the Homestead Grays, they took the third game of the series so decisively that the remaining two games were called off. Hildale then trounced them good, yet they carried Baltimore Blacksox so fast that when the seventh game had been played Crawfords had won five of them. Newark Brown, Indianapolis and Book Shoe failed to win a game from Crawfords. Against Book Shoe, Sam Streeter pitched a no-hit game.
HOWARD-MORGAN CLASH FRIDAY
Baltimore Coach to Depend On Famous "Zone Defense" To Beat Bisons
BALTIMORE—An interesting and lively tussle is anticipated for Friday when Howard University players meet the present C.I.A.A. champions at the New Albert Auditorium.
Coach Johnny Burr, who attended the graduate school at Springfield College last year, has developed one of the greatest basketball teams that Howard has had in years and will try hard to wrest the crown from the Bears which was taken from them last year.
Coach Hurt, on the other hand, has developed a system that the Bisons will not find so easy to overcome. This system is known as the typical Morgan "zone defense" and an unexcelled game coupled with a fast breaking attack on the offense. This type of play, however, does not call for any individual stars, but rather team work and those who have seen the Bears in action may readily agree that Coach Hurt has produced a well organized team. Howard will depend on such stars as Syphax, Hall, Taylor, Reed, and Bayton to stop Morgan, while Conrad, Wilson, Hackett, Jones and Captain Shipny Gibson will be fighting for the Bear's cause.

JACKIE ROGERS TO FIGHT SOON
PITTSBURGH, Pa.—(W.P.S.)—One of the tri-state's best gate attractions has been absent from his home town for almost six months. This has meant regrets to fight fans and an added problem to promoters. Now both are getting anxious and want to know about him.
After the summer campaign of 1931, Jackie Rogers took inventory of himself and decided that something was wrong. Contrary to current belief, it was not his eyes, for on every occasion he could hit his target. Not only could he hit his target but also see his opponents' blows coming in time to block, dodge or ride them. This advantage, however, was insufficient so he looked elsewhere for the trouble.
In the last Datto fight he intended to put on more weight, sufficient weight to guarantee strength and endurance against the man who had beaten him twice. His entire program was changed so as to bring about this advantage. But no weight came on. He breat Datto, however, but agreed with the critics that it was not the murderous punching Jackie which did the job.
"Wonder Five" Downs Cardozo Rugulars
The Wonder Five, a team composed of ineligible players of the Cardozo High School, Wednesday, defeated the victory quint of Cardozo in a thrilling contest, 24-22. At half time the Clerks were behind, 10-14, but spirited and knotted the count two times before the final four minutes of play when a basket by Petiford spelled defeat for the varsity. Lamar, Robinson and Petiford were outstanding for the winners, while Wells and Tolson scored most for the Clerks.

JOINER TRIBUTED AS PIONEER WORKER IN ATHLETICS HERE
By Edwin B. Henderson
In the death of William A. Joiner, there has left one of the pioneer workers in the field of organized athletics. Long before the bountieous present crop of athletic promoters, a number of men, now otherwise engaged, identified themselves with the development of amateur athletics. Back in 1900 and 1910, Joiner was president of the first organization for the promotion of amateur sports, the old Inter-Scholastic Athletic Association, which sponsored the first amateur, inter-scholastic, and inter-collegiate athletics in the country for colored boys and girls.
At that time, Joiner was a teacher at Howard University. By the efforts of the members of the US.A.A., G. C. Wilkinson, R. N. Mattingly, William DeCatur, W. Callis, B. Washington, S. Compton, W. H. J. Beckett, Ernest Marshall, R. D. Williams, R. V. Cook, James Thomas, G. D. Houston, H. G. Douglass, and the writer, outdoor and indoor track games and basketball games were fostered between Howard, Lincoln, Baltimore, Washington and Delaware High Schools; Hampton Institute and Clubs. As a result of this movement, inter-city amateur games developed. Many sterling athletes, who later became famous in track and field, were turned out. Other organizations like the North Carolina I.C.A.A. and the C.I.A.A. followed in its wake.
Joiner and his co-worker, DeCatur, at Howard University, were great influences in the use of athletics for body building and character development. They had to contend against the academic and social restrictions of the day. Many battles had to be fought to secure permission for young men to run races in their "underclothes," as the "old maid" sentiment was then expressed. Graffiting student managers had to be opposed. A new track had to be built despite those who did not wish the campus to be despoiled. The biggest fights were in the interest of maintained eligibility standards, especially the age rules in the old days of Howard Academy in its competition with high schools. These scraps often led to violent issue with the upper councils at Howard but we could always rely upon DeCatur and Joiner to take the stand of right against mere Howard over all contenders. This led to quite a "set-
"Y" Junior Fives Win Two Court Encounters
The "Y" Juniors and Peewees won basketball game: Saturday on the "Y" court, the former winning from the Cardozo A.C., 28 to 18, and the latter defeating the Garnet Nidgets, 39 to 31. In the first game, Glymph led the winners, while Chappel was outstanding for the Southwest team. Mahoney and Scotty, both of the "Y", divided high scoring honors in the latter battle.
Fisk Wins Two And Loses One Basketball Contest
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Coach Johnson's Fisk cagers took two hard-fought games from the fast Talledga Five, taking the first affair, Friday, by a 28 to 19 count. The end of the second game, Saturday, found the 'Degas at the start end of a 17 to 16 count.

to," often with the President," himself. Joiner was to this pioneer organization what Major Walker, President Eugene Clark, and Superintendent Garnet C. Wilkinson were to the Public Schools Athletic League which later became the big school boy recreation promotion body in the city. Upon assuming the presidency of the State Department of Willberforce University, Joiner left these parts for many years, but the influence of his life upon all of us who labored in the pioneer work in this growing field of education and better living through the physical is felt in all the efforts of our strivings today.

Coach Cleve Abbott Reviews Grid Game In Southern Conference Group
Coach Cleve Abbott Reviews Grid Game In Southern Conference Group
TUSKEGEE, Ala.—The purpose of the review of the 1931 season is not made from the standpoint of comparing teams in the conference or to rate individual players but is an attempt to present the fact that the colored teams are playing a standard game of football with here and there a deviation from the orthodox to take advantage of the particular material on hand.
The past season has been unique in that every team in the conference has been defeated at least once. Tuskegge having played and won more conference games, stands at the head of the percentage column. However, Alabama State and Clark University have lost but one game each.
The coaches have not experimented to any great extent with the lateral and backward pass although his plan of football offense has been used quite successfully by two or three teams.
The safety men have been taking more chances in handling punts than in previous years. Practically all of the teams are using the huddle or shift attack. Most of the teams are using a variation of the wing back system. A few teams one using the "get set and go" two-wing back offense with balanced and unbalanced line, while some are using the unbalanced line and sigle wing back. Two teams have used the Notre Dame dame shift offense. Very few teams are using the quarterback to handle the ball, but as a general rule the plays are started from a direct pass from the center.
Short Punt Formation
The short punt formation has been used more this year than last. The forward pass from backward and lateral passes is used by a number of teams, starting from both punt and regular formation. Spinner plays were used by several of the teams with fine results, this style of attack has added more deception to the game here in the South. Not many field goals were registered However, the point after touchdown decided two important games this fall.
Several teams built their defense to meet special opponents, however there seems to be a tendency to favor the seven-man line with the center playing loose on occasions and with a spear he d formation in the back field with the safety playing close up or back.
Alabama State Teachers College this year had a powerful team that showed the results of systematic and organized coaching. With fast elusive runners around the ends and on cut back plays the Alabama State team starts from the huddle and pumps into a single wing back formation. Fisk University uses the huddle system for calling signal and they may shift from the huddle into a single wing back formation. Coach Johson's method of setting the men out of the huddle into the scrimmage line was the best seen
purpose season is point of reference but the fact playing well with from the line of the unique confer- least used and stands tentage State cost but experi- in the conference this year. Lane College has used this year a modified punt formation. Sometimes the huddle is used and other times the play starts without the huddle, the quarterback calling the signals. From the punt formation Lane has a varied attack with considerable forward and lateral passing and a driving offensive through the line or off tackle. Knoxville Plays W. O. Hawkins, the veteran Knoxville Coach, has rallied consistently on the punt formation and for variety has used a short punt formation with the kicker back and slightly right of center, the other three backs on the right side. This formation was especially suited for the flashy Knoxville backs.
Walter "Chief" Aiken, the old Hampton and Howard star now coaching at Clark University, is this year using the Notre Dame shift with a four spot formation of the backs, the ends flexing out when the backs shift either right or left. Clark has also been very successful with a wide punt formation which is used mostly for passing. Morehouse College has changed its offensive tactics somewhat this season. Last year a two wing back formation was the basic formation while this year on coming from the huddle the team shifts into a single wing back formation or into a punt formation.
Florida A. and M. College, coached by Theodore Wright, old Baker University star, is a hard working aggregation with one or two exceptionally speedy backs. Wright is using the short kick formation quite largely as the basic of his offense. The huddle is used. Coach Nicks at Morris Brown University is using a single wing back formation, backs shifted to the right, with the players marching from the huddle on three counts after they have pivoted towards the scrimmage line. The rear back in the tandem sometimes fades back receiving the ball as Andy Smith's California teams used to do, for a pass or wide end run. The ball was often snapped to the number three back for a plunging over tackle. The usual plays were also run from punt formation.
Aggressive Eleven
The Edward Waters College team this year is aggressive and smart. The team starts its attack from the huddle moving into a single or two wing back formation. Punt formation is also used for passes and runs.
Gordon Kitchen, the new coach at Talladega College, is employing the single and double wing back formations with unbalanced line. Powerful off tackle drives, end runs, passes and reverses are used. Passes and runs are also used from punt formation.
Knoxville Plays
SEVENTEEN
Miles Memorial College is this year using principally short punt formation with the ends slightly split away from the tackle. From this formation the usual runs and passes are made.
Tuskegee Institute is still employing a modification of the single and two wing back formations. The usual runs and passes are made from these formations. The punt formation is also used for runs and passes.
Tenth Cavalry Praised By Commanding Offices
Members of the Tenth Cavalry were commended by Colonel H. N Cootes, commanding officer of the Third Cavalry, Fort Myer, Va., "for the marked superiority" while forming an escort in honor of the Assistant Secretary of War, last Friday.

Positions
re ane RT ve
White lies are just as sinful 25
Plack ones in the opinion of the
United States civil service vice
commission, according to a state-
ment made here Monday by Con-
gressman Oscar DePriest.
Mr. DePriest was referring to
that rather large number of civil
service vice applicants who, in fil-
ing their papers, give apparently
harmless, but false answers to, cer-
tain questions. Thus an applicant
who has been arrested for a minor
traffic violation will “overlook”
that arrest when he answers. the
question as to whether he has ever
been arrested. But this sort of
white lying is not necessary and
will get applicants into trouble.
Mr. DePriest submits the follow-
ing excerpt from the current re-
port of the civil service commission
to show that an applicant should
attempt to hide nothing:
“The commission may be depend-
ed upon to discriminate between
the person who has violated a traf-
fic regulation and one who is a
bank robber, and between the real
criminal and one who at some time
has made a false step and has
atoned for it by right living.”
“There are enough artificial and
unfair barriers raised to deny our
people their just merits in the civil
service already,” asserteq Mr. De-
Priest, “without them raising any
of their own making. They should
tell the truth at all times. It is to
their advantage. Of course, in

PASTOR SUFFERS
INJURY HALTING
RIOT AT CHURCH
| BALTIMORE, Md.—A near riot
broke the song service of the staid
old Union Baptist Church, Sunday
night, when a group of boys re-
senting the efforts of the pastor,
the Rev. Timothy Boddie, to quiet
them, charged the church door,
which the pastor blocked, with
Such foree that the minister suf-
fered a dislocated shoulder and
other bodily injuries, necessitating
treatment by a physician,
That the uproar was not the first
of its kind to take place at the
church, but the climax of a series
of minor disturbances throughout
the year, caused. by a group of
young boys, was intimated in the
Version of she affair given by Miss
Margaret Jefferson, the president
of the Young People’s Union, her-
self presiding at the Sunday eve-
ning meeting, when the near-riot
broke out.
“These boys are not members of
the Baptist Young People’s Union
of this church” she said, “I be-
Tieve they are members of a clique
of young boys who make it a reg-
ular practice to go from meeting
to meeting on Sundays and create
disturbances without any other idea
in mind than to annoy and discon-
cert the speakers and singers on
the programs.
The boys were Hilliard Lane,
John Lane. Herbert Wise, a young
fellow called “Red” and another
called “Shorty.”

Distributors Show Floating Power Pioneer
Plymouth, floating power pioneer, is being displayed at the Auto Show being held at the Washington Auditorium.
Bad Driving Habits Iowa Professor Lists Worst Practices
THE FAMILY'S RADIO LOG FOR THE WEEK
The Plymouth, on display at the auto show, is the model introduced last summer, on which the floating power principle was first presented. The principle is now being used on all 1932 Dodge, Chrysler and De Soto autos. Free wheeling, easy-shift transmission, all-stel body, double-drop frame and self-equalized hydraulic brakes are other features of this car, which sells in the lowest price field. The term floating power describes the revolutionary method of engine mounting by which the entire power plant is free to rock on its natural axis, and by which vibration is non-existent so far as driver and passengers are concerned.
The absorbing quality of rubber plays an important part in this elimination of engine vibration. The engineers have used two rubber engine mountings as compared with three or four ordinarily used. The scientific location of these two mountings is the most important contribution to the sensational results achieved by floating power. A line from the rear mounting passing through the center of gravity of the power plant determines the location of the front mounting. Thus the entire power plant is suspended in perfect balance. To preserve the proper alignment of the engine and to hold the movement of the engine within the limits allowed by the rubber mountings a built-up cantilever spring is

AMES, Ia., Jan. 28.—Have you any bad driving habits?
You may think not, but before you feel sure of this, check yourself with the following list of bad driving habits compiled by Prof. Alvah R. Lauer of Iowa State College. Dr. Lauer has been making a detailed study of drivers, their habits and ways to improve them. Here's his list:
1—Passing to the left in crowded traffic in such a way as to move over past the center of the street or road.
2—Passing standing street cars or falling to stop before passing.
3—Passing on left side of a street car when going in the same direction.
4—Driving past a loading street car when going in opposite direction at maximum legal speed.
5-Double parking on any avenue of traffic.
6—Driving slowly in the middle of the street.
7—Driving rapidly at the side of the street.
used between the rear of the engine and the frame side member. This spring is attached rigidly to the engine, while the other end is embedded $ _{4} $ in rubber in the frame side member. Possibilities for greater riding comfort afforded by floating power were further enhanced through the introduction of free wheeling, which also permits increased economy even in the low cost four-cylinder car. The Plymouth has a remarkably efficient easy-shift transmission of constant mesh type. It permits quiet, easy shifting from high to second or vice versa at speeds up to 50 miles an hour.
Plymouth bodies are of heavy steel and the sections are electrically welded into one rigid unit. As a result they are permanently free of rattles and squeaks, and since every point of strain is strongly braced, there is no possibility of "weaving." Insulating material between the body and chassis frame, in the dash and floor panels, keeps the interior pleasantly quiet. The safety afforded by the allsteel bodies is augmented by the double-drop frame, which provides exceptional lowness, excellent road-ability and ease of control. The frame permits a material lowering of the car's center of gravity and the reduction of overall height to 67 inches in the sedan without sacrificing interior roominess or road clearance.
Ming Habits
its Worst Practices
8—Passing a car on a hill.
9—Cutting through a safety zone.
10—Failing to give the proper signal in traffic.
11—Crashing red light even when certain no immediate danger exists.
12—Sudden changes from one line of traffic to another.
13—Passing a loading or unloading school bus.
14—Cutting corners on left turns.
15—Excessive or discourteous use of horn.
16—Meandering or weaving in traffic.
17—Driving at irregular speeds.
18—Driving through an intersection or past a side road without looking both ways.
19—Releasing the steering wheel momentarily for any reason.

20—Stopping on pavements.
Leaving a car parked anywhere on the highway without lights.
21—Very fast driving.

BROWN ASKED TO NAME NEGRO IN P. O. ADMINISTRATION
National Postal Alliance Make Application With Irrefutable Facts
(CNS)—In a carefully worked out statement of facts, the National Postal Alliance, representing a majority of the 31,000 Negro United States postal employees, through its President, Roy O. Wiliot, of St. Louis, Mo., has petitioned Postmaster General Walter Brown for the appointment of a Negro Assistant Superintendent in the Post Office personnel bureau. While expressing confidence in the high officials of the Post Office Department as shown by their appointment of W. C. Hueston as assistant solicitor and Emery A. Bryant jr., as assistant chief clerk at large, the National Postal Alliance cited many reasons for the need for further recognition in the official administrative branch of the Post Office.
A part of the statement made to Postmaster General Brown follows: "There are approximately 200,000 postal employees; of this number, 31,000 are colored and 262,000 are white; a percentage of 9.36. In the office of the Postmaster General and Assistants there are approximately 100 officials; only two are colored and the percentage is 2 per cent. In addition there are approximately 400 Post Office Inspectors, who have a status superior to officials as they are under the direct supervision of the Postmaster General. None of these is colored. Thus, out of a total of 800 department officials, there are only two colored or four-tenths of one per cent of the whole number.
"It is found that each employee has an average of one problem unanticipating Department excision every five years; his means 5,600 each year; 18.5 each working day. Under the First Assistant are 75 per cent of the colored employees and 76 per cent of their problems are equivalent to a sum total of 4,280 each year or 13 a day. As conditions under the First Assistant are not nearly so favorable for just and accurate decisions as under the Second Assistant, due to lack of uniform rules of seniority and rating, and the different manner of application by the various postmasters throughout the land, each of whom has his own system, the problem of the personnel officer of the Department handling the case is more complicated and of necessity requires more time for adjudication. Having only one colored official to deal with these too numerous cases necessitate hasty decisions (instruments of injustice) and in many instances the shifting of cases to other officials.
"Out of sheer necessity, most of the cases of colored employees are dalth with, and decision made only upon information furnished by those preferring the charges. In many cases these charges are framed though the supporting evidence well 'covers up', the employee is browbeaten into signing statements of which contents he knows nothing; even the extreme of signing an undated resignation is resorted to, so that the employee may be forced out, even if the Department signs in his favor. This lack of data and the time and means of making a thorough investigation has often prejudiced the reviewing officials toward the party involved, which in turn has created a feeling of injustice among colored employees, which thorough treatment of all cases would abolish.
"The existence of such officials would reason the friction between

HARRY BURLEIGH LECTURE-RECITAL AT HOWARD UNIV.
Praises Superiority of Negro Spirituals. Son Plays For Father
Harry T. Burleigh, baritone singer, of New York City, famous soloist of an Episcopal Church there for the past two years, rendered a lecture-recital in the Rankin Memorial Chapel, Tuesday night.
The famous singer gave an illuminating address to the packed house, on the superiority of Negro Spirituals. He stressed the fact that they are full of hope and aspiration and are without hate, malice or even resentment. They stress the cardinal virtues of love, long suffering and patience.
Folk songs, said Mr. Burleigh, are born of the experience of the people. Ours are the most beautiful of any that I know anything about. And they are superior to any folk songs in the world.
Mr. Burleigh's voice was in excellent tone and one might say, "remarkable for one of his age." He is not a young man, you know. He sang four groups of four songs each. All of them spirituals. In addition to his lecturing and singing, he was his own accompanist for three of the groups. His son, Alston W. Burleigh, of Virginia State College, Petersburg, Va., played the third group for his father. This was quite a successful lecture-recital. It wirs the first of the series promoted each year at Howard by Dean Slowe.

THE TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JANUARY 29, 1932
SCOTTSBORO BOYS FREEDOM BEFORE ALABAMA COURT
International Labor Defense Attorneys Carry Case to High Court
By Paul Peter
MONTGOMERY, Ala.—The appeal against the death verdict of the Scottboro boys was argued in the capitol of Alabama. This building once housed the government of the Confederate States during the Civil War. In this building was made the last official stand of slave ownership in America. It is significant that five lawyers should stand up here for the International Labor Defense and argue that eight young Negro boys have been railroaded brutally and inhumanly to a death sentence in a southern court.
One senses in the faces of the sour old judges, in the electric suspense of the crowded courtroom, in the army of Negroes looking in from outside through the big old-fashioned southern windows and bunched around the doom, that here is being argued one of the most significant cases ever heard in the South. It will be four weeks or more before the court will render its decision.
The cry of "Rape!" is raised often against the Negro in these southern states. Hundreds of black men have been lynched by mobs and executed by the state because of this cry. Here for the first time, a bitter, determined fight is being made to expose the feelings, the social forces that raise whirlwinds of hatred and hysteria when such a cry is heard. Never before ha; the whole world protested in so outspoken a manner against; a verdict handed down to poor, almost unknown Negro workers in the South.
Sout.' On Trial
The South does not like this glare of public light on its dark corners.
"For weeks this court has been bombarded by telegrams, resolutions and letters about this case, some of revolutionary character. If the senders of these messages were in my jurisdiction, I would have them cited for contempt of Court," said one of the Judges. George W. Chamlee, I.L.D. attorney of Chattanooga, and former attorney general of Tennessee, penned the argument for the Scottsboro boys. He showed how the young Negroes had been denied of every right in court. "They were put on trial without advice, without even being able to see their parents, without having the chance to talk to a lawyer and prepare a defense. The judges, the jury, the whole community was swept away by mob passion," he said.
Chamlee read from the Jackson County Sentinel, published in Scottsboro, Alabama, on March 25, calling the boys "black fiends" and "Neggo brutes" and saying that all "had confessed" of the "most revolting crime in all history", and they had been identified by the girls and many white boys. Chamlee charged that none of the testimony in court bore out the statements of the press, and that the paper had whipped up such lynching hysteria that no court could do otherwise than sentence the boys to death.
Irving Schwab, New York attorney for the International Labor Defense, then analysed the evidence of the trials. "Not only were these eight boys not guilty of the crime with which these girls charge them," he maintained, "but we contend that no such crime was committed on that freight train." Schwab then proceeded to tell how the stories by Victoria Price and Ruby Bates, the two girls who say they were raped on the train contradicted each other and even their own stories on different occasions. No other witness testified to the attack on the girls except the girls themselves, he declared.
Schwab said that seven white boys who were on the train were "failed at Scottsboro during the trials but were not put on the stand by the prosecution for fear they would not support the girls' stories.
Fitten affidavits from Huntsville, Alabama, and Chattanooga, Tennessee, where the girls are well known describe the girls as prostitutes who have lived with Negro men.
Fireman Testifies
Percy Hicks, the fireman on the freight train on which the girls were travelling at the time of the alleged assault, swears that he saw them in a box car and not a gondola. Later the lawyer said, Hicks swore to seeing them running away from the train at Paint Rock. He had also seen them a week previous bumming their way to Chattanooga.
This statement tears to pieces the girls' version of what happened since the attack of the Negro boys "who jumped from another car into the gondola car" could then never have happened Schwab said that the Scottboro court had excluded all testimony as to the character of these girls, although it was their evidence alone upon which the boys were convicted.
Plea For Juvenile
Joseph R. Brodsky made the final plea for the defense. A short, heavy, forceful man, who speaks eloquently with a drive and plunge of energy, Brodky kept
He contended that the trial was dominated by mob spirit and hysteria which terrorized the jury, the judge, and even the defense lawyers. His second point was that "due process of law" was denied because all Negroes were excluded from the jury. This point was raised for a possible appeal, if necessary, to the U. S. Supreme Court. His third point, said Brodsky, was that as a juvenile under 15 years of age, Eugene Williams was sentenced to death by a court which had no authority whatever to try him.
Brodsky quoted Stephen Roddy, Chattanooga attorney of the boys as saying: "I made no preparation for this case. I do not know the laws down here. It would be better if I stepped out of the case." This, together with the mob of 10,000 people in active and open demonstration against the boys, proves that they were denied of any chance to defend themselves, Brodsky contended.
State Law
He stated that Eurene Williams is under 16 years of age, and, therefore cannot be tried by the Scottboro court without a trial in a juvenile court first. The age of this boy was several times brought t the attention of Judge Hawkins of Scottboro, according to court records read by Brodsky. All the judge said was "All right." Williams was tried and sentenced to death along with the others.
Brodsky read the laws of Alabama to indicate that the Scottborsoro judge and the wardens of Kilby prison are subject to fines and punishment for abusing the rights of juveniles. "Eugene Williams, under no law in this state, can by right be kept in Kilby Prison today," said the lawyer. "Why did the judge not recognize the objection made by the defense lawyers to Williams' age? This alone shows the speed, the hysteria, the mob spirit and the pressure which prevailed in that Scottborsoro court."
Prosecutor Rants
Thomas E. Knight, prosecutor for the state, followed Brodsky. He is the son of a justice sitting on the Supreme court bench and was here arguing before his own father.
A small, nervous, red-faced man with a peaked face, Knight gave a fiery talk, full of Southern bombast, punctuated by repeated rappings on the table. He referred to the boys throughout the trial as "niggers". He spent considerable time citing laws to bolster his contention that no evidence as to the character of the girls was permissible in the trial. The defense had contended that only the testimony of the girls convicted the boys; and if these girls had untrustworthy characters, their testimony was worthless. Much of his speech was devoted to the contention that no hostility had been shown the boys, that no demonstration took place and if a band had played, that was merely a Ford demonstration on the streets.
Exhibiting a copy of "Contempo," a small literary weekly published by a group of college boys in Chapel Hill, N.C., the state's attorney said he had never seen such inflammatory literature, and yet the Surem Court of Alabama was not intimidated and not influenced The journal contained a poem by Langston Hughes, Negro writer, describing "Christ crucified in Alabama" in the form of the nine Scottsboro boys. Knight also argued that a large crowd was in this courtroom and telegrams and protests had come to the judges from the whole world, yet this would in no wise bear upon the judges. The crowd, the demonstration, the militia and the frenzied newspaper calls to lynching did not influence the judge or the jury in Scottsbore, he argued, attempting to make a comparison between that trial and this hearing.
The prosecutor did not even mention Eugene Williams and made no attempt to answer. Brodsky's questions as to why his case had not first been submitted to a juvenile court.

ARCHITECTURAL ILLUSTRATIONS AT HOWARD UNIV
Howard University Department of Architecture will display from January 21 to February 12 an exhibition portraying works of four outstanding architectural illustrators and renderers in America—Otto R. Eggers, Hugh Ferris, Chester B. Price, and Joseph B. Himmelheber—in the Trustees Dining Hall on the campus. Concerning Otto R. Eggers, Samuel Chamberlain, refers to him "as fine a renderer as we have in America." It has been said that even a botanist would be able to recognize even the species of trees and shubbies. Mr. Ferris is considered the leading visualist in the field of architectural illustration. His drawings of the future city set forth a number of radical departures from present chaotic conditions.
Lithographs of Joseph B. Hemmelheber have appeared in rotogravure section of the Washington Sunday Star" each week for nearly two years. Chester B.

DEMOCRATIC PAPER
Seek to Make Friends With Erstwhile Enemy, Says Editorial
LOUISVILLE, Ky.—The colored Democratic Voice, a weekly paper, made its appearance here this week. W. E. Johnson is president of the corporation. A. E. Morris is business manager while A. L. Garvin and William Warley are editor and associate editor respectively.
In its leading editorial the Voice says:
"A very wise man once said, 'There is nothing new under the sun.' We bag to submit that today we are producing something new under the sun—the Colored Democratic Voice. For nowhere under the sun has there ever been published a Negro newspaper, frankly and openly naming itself 'Democratic.' True, there are scores of Negro newspapers that are Democratic and support the Democratic ticket but this is the first Race paper to carry the work 'Democratic in its heading.'
"This was done with deliberate forethought. It intends to support the Democratic tickets—so why camaflouge under the guise of 'Independent' or what not? "
"Sick and disgusted with so-called Republican party because of its disrespect and disregard for the Negro, its most loyal supporter for decades, why not come out openly and express that disgust and make friends with our erstwhile enemy, the Democratic party?
"The Republican party has turned lily white and anti-Negro. It cares no more for the Negro than the Ku Klux Klan does. So why deceive ourselves further?"
Atlanta U. Gets $100,000
From Carnegie Fund
NEW YORK—To enable Atlanta University, of Atlanta, Ga., to develop its work in the training of Negroes for business careers, the Carnegie Corporation of New York has granted the University $100,000 for the establishment of a professorship in its graduate Department of Business Administration. Announcement of the grant was made by Dean Sage, 49 Wall street, president of the University Board of Trustees.
Atlanta University inaugurated graduate courses two years ago following an affiliation agreement with Morehouse College for men and Spelman College for women. Dr. John Hope is president of the University.
At Carson's Hospital
Mrs. Barbara Thompson, sister of Rev. W. L. Washington, pastor of Zion Baptist Church, of 1709 T street, northwest, was among the patients who underwent successful operations at the hospital this week.
Others were Ada Doris, 1419 Hopkins street, northwest; Martha Barber, 5709 Dix street, northeast; Elsie Palmer, 811 First street, northwest; Dorothy Tapscott, 1206 Holbrook terrace; Necie Thompson, 718 Fairmont street, northwest; Elsie Hawkins, 1624 S street, northwest; and Nellie Rinen, 1315 R street, northwest.

self was formed to sell this stock at $50 per share. This stock with insurance policies of the three and personal securities were deposited in the National Park Bank. A certificate of deposit was issued to the sum of $32,500. This certificate was left on deposit to bolster the assets of the company. The syndicate merely had the privilege of paying six per cent interest on this deposit.
Mr. Smith also told of a loan of $75,000 on the Pythian Temple in Wheeling, W. Va. It was brought out on examination that the company lost $100,000 in a plantation in Mississippi. One year the flood washed the cotton crop away and the following year a drought killed the crop. The loan was speculative, Smith said. It was brought out that the purpose of electing John Risher president after the ousting of the two Rutherfords was to sell stock and raise money. It was said that the resignation were demanded to give the new officers a free hand to rehabilitate the company.
It was also brought out that during the stock selling campaigns by the company more money was spent for expenses than was realized on sale of stock. One man was paid a salary of $500 per month to travel and sell stock. Attorney Daniel T. Wright, on cross examination, presented five checks totaling $1,850 for expenses incurred for the company. Mr. Smith said there were no itemized vouchers for these expenses, only telegrams from various cities he had visited with Robert Church who was also engaged in raising money for the company.
In giving a resume of the operation of the company on Tuesday, Attorney O'Brien, for the receiver, said the outstanding obligations were death claims due to the
sum due policyholders on surrender: values.
He said the company is impaired in Georgia, Texas, Tennessee, Alabama, Missouri and Virginia. Daniel Wright, attorney for the company, declared that the solvency of the company could only be determined by an actual examination and the receiver had refused to have this done despite requests of the stockholders. He reviewed the company under the management of S. W. Rutherford from a small business to its standing in the insurance world as one of the largest Negro businesses.
After resigning, Mr. Smith denied that he was retained to "divulge certain information" he was in position to be acquainted with after being with the company for a period of sixteen years. At present he said he is employed to "assist the receiver."

has not been reached, but the university will offer him the position within 10 days.
Mr. Hope is a graduate of Morehouse College and a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He was at one time superintendent of buildings and grounds at Spelman College. Spelman has the most beautiful grounds and campus in the country. He was also a construction engineer in Brazil and South American countries, and made an enviable record on several famous projects in that country. He has worked over a group consisting of several hundred workmen while engaged in South American projects.
Mr. Hope is approved by the executive committee as superintendent of grounds at Howard if he can be induced to come here.
In the matter of pay-roll padding at Howard, this reporter found that Eugene Gough, head janitor, was brought to the university at the recommendation of Mr. Cassell. His salary was about $100 per month. Mr. Cassell realizing the dependability of the man, gave him extra duties to increase his salary to about $150. This was done with the knowledge and consent of university officials.
Later Mr. Gough's wife was given the Alumni Building to care for at a salary of $50 per month. Mrs. Gough was taken ill and Mr. Gough was given permission to do his wife's work and sign the payroll for her. Mrs. Gough was ill for several months. At her death her son, Samuel Gough, was given the position formerly held by his mother.
Inability to make good in his studies caused young Gough to leave Howard and enter Virginia State College at Petersburg. Mr. Gough continued to clean the building and sign the payroll for his son. He did this for a period of about two months, thinking that the same situation was maintained as when his wife was ill. Mr. Cassell found this out, and after several weeks reported the matter to the secretary-treasurer. Both recommended that Mr. Gough be fired. At a meeting of the executive committee it was found that Mr. Gough had no fraudulent intent and the university had lost nothing as Mr. Gough had done the work. The committee unanimously agreed that Mr. Gough be continued as head janitor. Mr. Gough was instructed to return one-half of the salary drawn for cleaning the building because he failed to report when his son left the university to the university architect.
The committee also voiced confidence in Mr. Cassell and agreed to his peculiar value to the university and one of the most outstanding architects in the country.

had always known of her relationship to the Wendells, even when the eccentric sisters were living. Until her marriage, 36 years ago, she lived at 148 West Thirty-second street. She resided at that address for more than twenty years. During this time, she became a member of St. Phillip's Episcopal Church. After her marriage she moved to Ossining. She refused to reveal the name of the attorneys who are representing her in the case—stating that they could better represent her if unhammered in their duties.
According to Mrs. Hoffman's contention, Jobann Gottlieb Wendel came to America in 1798, and fell in love with the Indian chieftain's daughter. Whether they were married or even accorded the tribal rites is not known, but the princess and her two brothers, Joe Bear Wal and Buck Skin Wal are said to have accompanied Wendel on his trapping expeditions up and down the Hudson River.

was called John Wendel. Mrs. Hoffman asserts that he was her grandfather and a half brother of the late John Daniel Wendel, father of Miss Ella Wendel, last custodian of the fortune founded by the fur trapper. John Wendel, the half-Indian, is said to have had ten children, all of whom are dead now.
Four of these children, Mrs. Hoffman contends, were named Ella, Mary, Eliza and John. Similar names were borne by members of the recognized branch of the family. One of the ten children, John G. Wendel, is claimed by Mrs. Hoffman as her father.
Deeds on file in Schenectady, the claimant contends, show that her grandfather, John Wendel, was the recipient of several pieces of land from an unnamed person. Her attorneys are working to prove that the parcels of land were given to the half-Indian by John Gottlieb Wendel. The will of Miss Ella von E. Wendel, eccentric spinster who left one of the world's largest fortunes to charities and foreign divinity schools at her death last March, was scheduled to be probated Monday. When nearly fifty attorneys gathered there to represent "heirs" who are seeking the fortune, they were told to return on March 14, when two citations made by temporary administrators of the estate will be heard.
The other claimants, all of whom are white include Rosa Dew Stansbury of Vicksburg, Miss.; Amelia Holmchacher of Glendale, Queens; Andreas Wendel and Richard Wendel Sturm of Bremen, Germany. All of the claimants admit fifth and sixth degree relationship to Miss Ella Wendel. One of the citations listed by the temporary administrators, lists more than 2,000 claimants, but attorney state that this is a "romantic" document and that its length is due to an "excess of caution."
MRS. BROOKS' CHECK (Continued from Page 1)
1928. Mrs. Brooks had served intermittently as maid and companion for the white woman for nine years prior to her death. Mrs. Grosso stated in her will that she was rewarding Mrs. Brooks for her loyalty and intelligence.
Recounting some of her experiences with Mrs. Grosso, Mrs. Brooks stated in an interview Friday: "Mrs. Grosso used to tell me that she was going to do something for me but I never had any idea that she would leave practically her entire fortune to me. She was very kind to me while she lived."
Mrs. Brooks went into the employ of Mrs. Grosso when she was fifteen years old. She had just finished high school in Beaumont and intended to pursue studies at college, but decided that in order to have sufficient money, she would go to work for awhile. She planned to go to Houston and before leaving went to a Beaumont store to purchase shoes. A white woman spoke to Mrs. Brooks and asked her how she would like to work for her. The young high school graduate immediately asked the white woman how much she would pay her. She was promised nine dollars a week and accepted. She later learned of a place where she could make ten dollars, however, and decided to leave her first place. Her first employer raised her salary.
The first employer was Mas. Grosso.
For the next nine years, Mrs. Brooks served from time to time in Mrs. Grosso's employ. At first she was employed as a maid, but after an estrangement occurred between Mrs. Grosso and her husband in Beaumont, the white woman went to Houston to live and Mrs. Brooks became her companion. Most of the time Mrs. Grosso was in Houston, she occupied a hotel apartment. Mrs. Brooks accompanied her on many of her out-of-town trips and when Mrs. Grosso

wen to Paris, Mrs. Brooks went with her.
Goes Abroad
Three trips abroad were made by Mrs. Grosso after Mrs. Brooks went into her employ. On the first trip Mrs. Brooks accompanied her, but on the second trip, Mrs. Brooks having married, it was necessary for her to remain at home to care for her child. On the third trip, Mrs. Grosso wrote her will, bequeathing her estate to her companion.
On the day before she died, while in a Houston hospital, Mrs. Grosso made available to Mrs. Brooks a large sum of money and informed her of the whereabouts of many of her valuables.
After Mrs. Grosso's death, a spirited contest against probate of the will was put up by Mrs. R. L. Pettigo, white, of Houston, Mrs. Pettigo contended that Mrs. Grosso had been an adopted daughter in her parents' family and that she was entitled to a share of the estate. When the court denied her claim, trumped up charges that Mrs. Brooks had made away with some of the property of Mrs. Grosso were made. A move to arrest Mrs. Brooks was made. But backed by powerful white friends, Mrs. Brooks met this challenge and defeated this claim.
In the various contests, Mrs. Brooks was represented by P. Harvey, white attorney of Houston.
However, Mrs. Brooks gives much of the credit for her success in winning her bequest to the interest of white friends of Mrs. Grosso who understood the high regard which her former employer had for here. These friends were largely instrumental in having some items of the estate; such as real estate, stocks and bonds, converted into cash and placed at the disposal of Mrs. Brooks. One of the items converted was a large interest in the States hotel in New York. Mrs. Brooks and her husband, a former Texas business man, are to make Chicago their future home.

Every last minute modernized motive feature of recent years is incorporated in the new 1932 Chevrolet, as well as a new "stabilized" front end construction embodied for the first time in any car. Prices remain at last year's low level. Improvements in the '32 line over last year's models include downdraft carburetion, counterbalanced crankshaft, smaller wheels and larger tires, radically changed front end appearance, "finger touch" front seat adjustment, cowl ventilator on all models, hood doors instead of louvres, improved clutch and an additional cross member in the frame.
Of the mechanical changes, the most important is the new Chevrolet-built transmission unit, which combines synchro-mesh with simplified free wheeling as standard equipment at no extra cost. Free wheeling is provided by an overrunning clutch, engaged at the dis

creation of the driver by a control button on the instrument panel. This optional feature enables the driver to utilize the full braking power of the engine if he desires, and to use the free wheeling only when traffic conditions make it desirable. While the wheelbase remains at 109 inches, the car looks longer than last year, lower, speedier and more powerful improved power plant. The most striking change in exterior appearance is the new front end, which has been completely redesigned this year.
In conventional mounting the radiator, fenders and headlamps are supported from the sides of the frame, and in driving over rough roads the front end weaves and vibrates. In the new Chevrolet, the fenders, radiator and headlamps are carried on a single fender support unit, which is anchored to the center of the front crossmember of the frame. This pivotal anchorage enables the front end to

away with the body as a unit, thus reducing the annoying weave as well as the possibility of squeaks and rattles developing at points of stress. A double tie-bar, chromium plated, raches gracefully between the fenders and braces them, thus acting as a structural unit as well as an ornament. A support also extends from the tie-bar to the radiator, anchoring the units securely together, also carrying the horn. The radiator is entirely new in design and construction. The exposed core area is larger than last year for better cooling, and a new grille is built integral with the radiator in all models. This grille has square meshes stamped in relief, with the vertical lines accentuated to increase the appearance of height.
Front fenders have a deeper crown and skirts and a wider bead coming to a graceful point at the front tip of the fender. Headlamps, are mounted on the tie-bar, as is the new trumpet-shaped horn. The hood is redesigned to conform to the new radiator shape and offers several radical departures from last year. The conventional panel of louvers is replaced by four ventilating doors on each side, chromium plated on the deluxe and sport models. All models this year have cowl ventilators located just forward of the windshield and controlled by a regulator in the driver's compartment. The windshields of all models are slanted at a sharper angle, and the streamlined bodies, with the outside sun visor eliminated, greatly reduce air resistance, increase the driver's vision and add to the symmetrical appearance of the car.
ELECT NEW OFFICIALS
Election of J. W. Thomas as president of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, in which he started 24 years ago as a chemist, and promotion of Harvey S. Firestone to board chairman is announced by the company as a step toward increased activity, and better business. Other promotions listed include that of Ross J. Cope, who has been elected president of the Western Firestone Organization.
THE TRIBUNE. FRIDAY. JANUARY 29, 1932
Attractive Colors Used Even in Commercial Cars
Even commercial cars are now being finished in attractive colors, and decorated with modern ornaments, the commercial car display at Washington Auditorium reveals. Ford, Chevrolet and Reo cars are being exhibited during the Auto Show. Proper styling and properly-applied colors make trucks more valuable to their users by creating good will for their businesses, commercial car designers have found. Merchants who depend upon style as part of their stock in trade can find delivery cars which, by reason of beautiful color and line, assist in maintaining this idea. The construction company, on the other hand, will buy a truck which, in appearance, denotes ruggedness. Strength in lettering helps to carry out this idea.
A number of the new mechanical and body improvements incorporated in the new Ford, Chevrolet and Reo passenger cars will be found in the trucks on display.
AGE OF CARS JUNKED AVERAGES 7.9 YEARS
NEW YORK, Jan. 28.—An automotive industry enters the year 1932 with a potential requirement of approximately 4,300,000 passenger cars, motor trucks and buses for replacement purposes only, asserted George E. Quisenberry, editor of American Automobile, in a survey just completed. The study revealed the fact that the average age of an auto consigned to the junk heap today is 7.9 years.
Practically all cars which were put into service in the United States in the years 1922 and 1923 took their places on the junk pile in 1930 and 1931. The total of these discarded autos was 6,343,395 which was the total production available for sale in the United States and Canada, with exports eliminated, eight years ago. In 1930-31 the output available for replacement was 5,309,033 autos, leaving an unfilled demand from these two years of 1,033,662 cars, trucks and buses.
AUTO MAKERS MOBILIZE AGAIN
AUTO MAKERS MOBILIZE AGAIN
War-Time Spirit in Industry As It Prepares to Fight Depression
By A. VANDERZEE General Sales Manager, Dodge Brothers Corporation That America's motor manufacturers have responded as a unit to the nation's call for industrial leadership in an attempt to bring about a certain return to better times, I believe, is evidenced by the startling, value-plus creations that are being displayed at this year's Auto Show.
As it was expressed recently in one of the leading trade journals, mobilization of its forces at the time of a national emergency such as exists today is not a new thing for the auto industry. Almost overnight it switched its engineering and productive genius to the manufacturing of munitions and combat equipment during the World War. Later, it mobilized just as speedily and just as effectively, for its own organization and expansion. Now, once again, it is called upon to assume leadership and return to normal the buying habits of a nation.
That we will be successful, I am certain. The auto industry will leave nothing undone to render complete assistance at a time when the country looks to it for individual and national encouragement. Never before in all my years of experience, and I believe other executives in the industry will concur with me in this expression, have I seen such comfort, such practicability and such value as is contained in the offerings of the industry for 1932. As one wander through the various exhibits, either as just a mere spectator or as an actual read-to-buy prospect, he can not help but sense within himself a feeling of desire—an urge to want to possess immediately one of those new models for his own, or for his wife and family.
By ALFRED P. SLOAN, Jr.
President, General Motors
Corporation
In my 25 years' experience with the automobile industry we have seen many ups and downs, times of encouragement and times of uncertainty. In the early development of the industry there was a justifiable occasion for uncertainty because the ultimate position of the motor car as a contribution to progress had not been established. We had no measure of our strength, of the dominating position that we were to attain as an economic necessity.
That is all behind us. We know we have the first lien on the purchaser's budget; that the motor car is the last thing that the individual gives up in times of adversity, the first thing that is purchased when circumstances are such that a new purchase can be made.
How could any industry have a greater foundation of opportunity? Naturally, we are concerned with the reduced business of the moment; problems are created which are difficult and unpleasant to deal with; but they are only problems of the moment. As long as the fundamentals are as they are, we can face these problems with courage and conviction that a better order of things is in the making. The new offerings this year unquestionably represent greater value than ever before, and continually increasing values have been the foundation of the automotive industry's success and development. This year brings new ideas in artistic effect and technical development. I am confident the motor car will make more real progress during the next few years than for many years past. Adversity is the greatest urge for progress.
Any forecast at any time is difficult—1932 particularly so. No one can express an opinion based upon facts. My own belief—and this is not based upon fact—is that we will enjoy a somewhat better year than in 1931. The depletion of motor car mile inventory which was not interrupted in 1931 by the economic depression; the fact that 1932 should bring into the market business resulting from absolence of the large business of three years ago, justifies this conclusion, irrespective of any particular improvement in economic conditions.

DUKE PRESENTS PICTURE TO ARM- STRONG HIGH
A special assembly was held Tuesday, January 18, combining two unusual features.
Congressman Sol Bloom, chairman of the Bicentennial Committee, explained to the student body the purpose of the celation. He stated that the District is not having any more celebration than the other cities and that the Bicentennial Committees' work is more for the purpose of getting to the American people the true facts concerning the history of the United States and George Washington's part in it, then it is for planning elaborate programs. Congressman Bloom told the students that it is their duty to get and use as much of this information as possible and that they are to have just as much part in the celebration as anyone else. The Glee Club rendered three numbers which so impressed him that he promised to send them some music.

Dr. Jacob Shoban of Howard University spoke to the faculty of Armstrong High School at their regular educational meeting on Wednesday, January 20. Dr. Shoban for two years was acting head of the Department of Chemistry at Howard University. His topic was "Chemistry and Modern Civilization." Chemistry was shown to be a veritable Aladdin whereby many commonplace substances are converted into numerous products of daily use. The thousands of useful products obtained from coal, from patroleum and like substances, were cited as evidence of the importance of hemiistry to our civilization. After discussing the material contributions of the sciences the speaker discussed the advantage of the scientific attitude in other fields.

Friday, the Owls Club dance promises to start the pre-Lenten season with a brilliant social affair.

column in the Baltimore Tribune
gives vent to her feelings, when
she takes up a subject relative to
social actions of certain people
who just don’t know what is what
focally.
In one article she writes:
“Among the things something
ought to be done about is the an-

find themselves either unable to
attend her card Bertice or more or
less indifferent about going.
“No one seriously objects. to the
stay-at-home if she wants to stay
there; in fact, I think we'd rather
she did if that’s the way she feel:
about it, But with the number of
telephones available, there seems
no earthly reason why she can't
do the polite thing—ring the har.

headache, the unexpected visitor
or whatever alibi that comes te

“A hostess just a week ago had
to press her scorekeeper into ser-

ing. Then there are the small
grows ‘who play ‘one-table parties
sequently when members fail
to put in their appearance, what is
there to do but play dumm}
bridge? Something really ought tc
be done about this.”
Tn andther issue she states:
“Having relieved my oppressed

when we entertain the club we se-

“T coyld go om, but you get the

Cauliflower Carefully
| Cooked is Delicious
The market offers an array of
interesting vegetables this month.
Cauliflower holds. first place with
many of us, This vegetable is a
glorified cabbage and if well cook-
ed is very delicate in flavor, Prob-
ably no vegetable is more’ sensi
tive to wrong treatment than eauli-
fiower. It should not be cooked
too long nor too fast.
Remove the green leaves and
soak the head of cauliflower. in
cold water until. perfectly clean.
Drain and steam until the stems
are tender, The vegetable should
be white—not brown when done.
If it turns brown it has been cook-
ed too long and the flavor will
be impaired.

Chestnut Farms Dairy Has a
Record of Leadership
Careful mothers select Chestnut Farms Dairy because they have implicit confidence in the permanent uniformity of our products. Physicians, too, know that we have a fixed standard of quality...a standard which our producers and dairy plant managers are always on the alert to maintain. The last official record of the D. C. HEALTH DEPARTMENT gives Chestnut Farms Dairy (in addition to our Regular 100% Dairy Plant Rating) the HIGHEST GENERAL RATING ever given to a Washington dairy!
This average general rating is about as high as it is humanly possible to attain, considering the many elements that affect such a rating!
Dairy Plant Rating which has for years been 100%
'Average Farm Score where Chestnut Farms Milk is produced
'Average Cattle Score inspection of health and general condition
'Average Butter-fat Content showing richness of our product
'Average Bacteria Count scientifically testing purity of our product
While this last GENERAL RATING is the highest ever attained by ANY DAIRY IN WASHINGTON, Chestnut Farms has enjoyed an unbroken leadership for many years. We are presenting herewith an official record showing the average general rating of Washington's four largest dairies each year over a period of the past six years...together with the AVERAGE GENERAL RATING FOR THE SIX-YEAR PERIOD.

PANNED PORK CHOPS
Wipe pork chop with damp cloth. Sprinkle them with salt and pepper and dust them lightly with flour. Place the chops in a heavy hot skillet with the fat edge down, so as to brown the fat at the same time grease the skillet. Turn the chops and brown them lightly on both sides. Pour off the fat that has cooked out, cover the skillet closely, and continue so cook at very moderate heat until the meat is terder. Turn the chops occasionally to cook them uniformly.

Chops of this thickness will require
longer cooking thin chops, but
they will be more juicy when done.
Combine the meat, crumbs and salt, mix thoroughly, then add the beaten egg, mix again and shape into a loaf and bake one and one-half hours in a moderate oven.
Creole Sauce
Melt four tablespoons of bacon fat in a heavy skillet. Prepare one-third cup chopped celery, one-third cup chopped onion and one-third cup chopped green pepper, then cook the vegetables gently for 10 minutes, add two cups stewed tomatoes and cook slowly until the sauce is thick, add seasoning and serve on sliced loaf.

Among a group of 30 efficient
money counters detailed to the
Treasury Department last Monday
from the trimming section of the
Bureau of Engraving and Printing
were fifteen colored girls. This
group were detailed to work in
the Redeemed Guresney Unit of
Loans and Currency which is lo-
cateq in Room 23 of the United
States Treasury.
John E. Meyers, chief of this
unit, also detailed George Stewart
to instruct these workers in the
final count of redeemed currency
which is on its way to the macera-
tor to be ground to a pulp mass.
Each worker is given a package of
fou trhousand half notes (lowers)
representing different banks to be
counted, All errors are easily
picked up, as their count must tal-
ly with the previous count in order
that the corresponding upper half
of the notes will match.
Great care is necessary in hand-
ling such details as the kind of
money, the denomination, number
of pieces and the value of each
package before giving it over to
the destruction committee, in
charge of the several. macerators
in the Bureau. ‘This detail of col-
ored women is the first of its kind
to the Treasury and only\four oth-

ALEXANDER HAMILTON'S
ANNIVERSARY
January 11, brings around the
175th return of the birthday of
Alexander Hamilton, whom Chief
Justice Marshall ranked next to
Washington himself in greatness
and importance in the critical days
of our earlier history.
Certainly Hamilton was one of
the most brilliant of all Washing-
ton’s aides and advisors. His dra-
matic career has lent itself to fic-
tion and drama, and no critie or
historian of our rise as a nation
can cover that period without the
most elaborate attention to Hamil-

into a permanent playroom for the
children. Besides providing space
to play, it can be made the means
to inculcate habits of order and
neatness in the growing youngsters.
This trend of converting the
basement into a playroom has been
greatly stimulated by the use of oll

‘mand in the field. Washington,
hurt as he was by Hamilton’s be-
havior, magnanimously put him
back on the firing line and gave
him the final honor of leading the
closing assault on the British
works at Yorktown.
The part Hamilton played in
shaping our Constitution and hav-
ing it adopted, has become one of
the important’ pager in American
history. Disapproving of many of
the features of the Constitution,
he nevertheless threw himself
heart and soul into the fight for its
adoption, writing brilliant articles
which helped considerably in win-
ning over doubtful states.
‘Yet even this was but the pre-
liminary to his great contribution
to the founding of the Govern-
ment. Remarkeble before, Hamil-
ton then become great as states-
man, administrator, and financial
genius. Made first Secretary of the
Treasury by President Washing-
ton, Hamilton developed those
policies which placed the new and
Etruggling nation on q firm foun-
dation of credit and made its life
secure.
Tt was Hamilton who chiefly es-
tablished, for one thing, our theory
and practice of the tariff. In re-
sponse to queries and demands
from Congress, Hamilton, as Se-
cretary of ‘the Treasury, wrote a
series of reports that are as firm-
ly fixed in our national life as the
Constitution itself. Americans who
have never read these papers,
nevertheless benefit by the princi-
ples which they contain and which
we have never ceased to maintain
in operation.
Yet it was fated that the man
who contributed such solid materi-
al to our national existence, should
put a tragic close to a career as
brief as it was brilliant: Born @
romantic figure, his death itself is
the last chapter in what destiny
determined should end like a story.
No matter how or when Hamilton
died, his loss would have been tak-
en as a calamity by his country-
men, It seemed a double calamity,
coming as it did while Hamilton
still was young and in the form of
the out-moded duel; but destiny
had so willed, Still, Aaron Burr

CHURCHES SCORE MD. LYNCHING
Say White Citizens Tried To Offer Excuses For Mob Law
NEW YORK—Residents of the Eastern Shore of Maryland are scored sharpy for the lynching of a colored man at Salisbury, December 4, in a report of an investigation made public by the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America.
The investigation was made by Prof Broadus Mitchell of the Department of Political Science of Johns Hopkins University. Matthew William, a mentally defective, according to the report, had shot and killed his employer, and after trying to kill him, if, was taken to the Salisbury Hospital. He was hanged and burned by a mob which took him from the hospital
Allowing for the "backward mental and spiritual development" of the Eastern Shore, due to its geographical isolation, the report criticizes the attitude of the community as a whole, saying that "two weeks after the lynching the place was rife with excuses for the hanging, if not, indeed, full of justification for it."

Unity "Christians" Are Hostile To Negroes
KANSAS CITY, Mo., (ANP) Two brilliant co-eds, students in the department of sociology at the University of Kansas, located at Lawrence, were flatly refused lunch here Friday while on a field trip with a group of students of the university who were here on an inspection of several social agencies.
After visiting several places in quest of information bearing upon their scientific study of social pathology, the group of young people—white and Negro—went to the Unity Inn, a part of the famous Unity religious organization. On making application for lunch (by their appearance with white students) these two brilliant young women were flatly refused. The teacher in charge became very incensed, as did also some of the white students in the group, and expressed their disapproval and resentment of the discrimination based on prejudice.
The teacher felt very keenly the humiliation to which the two colored girls were subjected and expressed her regrets in no uncertain terms. In speaking to one of the young women regarding the unpleasant incident she remarked: "And imagine them calling themselves 'Christians.'"

ATTORNEYS SEEK TO REVIVE DEAD ORGANIZATION
Eastern Star Benevolent Society of America Let Its Charter Lapse
(CNS)—Thirty-five years of active practice before every court in the District of Columbia and the Supreme Court of the United is the record of L. Melendez King, prominent attorney of this city, who last week found himself confronted with one of the strangest legal cases in the history of courts here. Attorney King is representing forty-seven members of the Eastern Star Benevolent Society of America, an organization declared legally dead in 1918, which has to prove itself very much alive legally if it hopes to receive $2,276.70 owing to it by the District of Columbia. Associated with Attorney King in solving the knotty legal problem is Attorney Edward A. Beaubian, a recent graduate of Howard University Law School.
The society seeking to prove its existence was incorporated in 1898 under a charter which expired in 1918. Unaware that the expiration of the charter made it legally dead, members of the organization kept right on doing business and acquiring property in its name. In 1928 the District of Columbia government condemned a portion of the property thus acquired in order to widen a highway, and awarded the owners of the property $2,276,70. It was on a search of the title to the property that it was learned that the charter having expired. the association was legally dead and neither it nor its members could be legally paid the sum awarded. Immediately through Attorney King, with Attorney Beaulian representing the nominal defendants, the forty-seven members of the defunct society filed a new certificate of incorporation and asked the court to recognize them as legally entitled to the money. At a hearing of the case ordered by Mr. Justice Cox, and held last Wednesday, the rights of the claimants were presented and a decision by the referee is now pending.
Has Virted Career at Bar
Attorney King has had an extensive career as a member of the District of Columbia bar. A graduate of Howard University Law School and a graduate student at
