The Howard University Controversy Waxing Warm ARCHITECT DENIES DELAY CHARGED BY PRESIDENT Cassell Also Denies "Make Good" Charge of RACE ISSUE SPLITS BOARD CAPITAL WEEKLY ARCHITECT DENIES DELAY CHARGED BY PRESIDENT Cassell Also Denies "Make Good" Charge of President It was reported in these columns last week that the "storm clouds" at Howard University are not even a gentle puff, and Albert I. Cassell, university architect, is not to be ousted. At the time of these statements the Tribune staff correspondent was relying upon information gotten at the office of the president of Howard University. However, subsequent to this interview, the trustee board announces the appointment of Mr. Hope, not as university architect, but as superintendent of buildings and grounds. In the report of last week, it was further stated that the change in this connection was due to the desire on the part of the university to speed up the work of the building program. The office of the president in this connection gives out the following statement in justification of this policy on the part of the trustee board: "The appropriations are available for three buildings, but the plans have not been completed nor the contracts let for either of them, which buildings are to be erected on land now vacant and available, and could be erected tomorrow." The office of the university architect, however, denies that any delay in the building program is due to any backwardness on the part of that department whatsoever, and stated that if there be any delay it is due to the fact that while appropriations have been made for certain buildings, in some instances such appropriations are inadequate; and in other instances the appropriation, while having been approved by the Bureau Budget, has not been actually made available to the university's use; and stated further that for further reasons that the locations in the building program for which money is to be given have not been definitely decided upon and would require the removal of other buildings now housing necessary activities of the university In these columns last week, through information gotten from the president's office of Howard University, it was stated that the trustee board had determined that Eugene Gough, head junior, actually did the work for which he was paid. This work being done for his son, whose name was carried on the university pay-roll. The original controversy in this connection seemed to have grown out of the fact that Mr. Cassell, university architect and head of the department of maintenance, had reported that Mr. Gough had illegally signed the payroll on two different occasions and had drawn the pay carried on said payroll in the name of his son, while as a matter of fact, Mr. Cassell further charged that his son was out of the city. And that on a third occasion the son signed the payroll, it being charged that he did not perform any services for such money so received. As to this phase of the controversy when asked if Gough did illegally sign the rolls, the president of the university explained by saying, "You will have to get that information from the secretary-treasurer's office." On the other hand, it is understood that the office of the architect and superintendent of grounds still contends that the real issue has never been fully answered to the public, and that Mr. Gough did illegally sign the said payrolls above referred to. The president further stated in an interview that the department of maintenance did not come under the Interior Department, and therefore any suggestion to the effect that the Interior Department had or would interfere in the matter is erroneous. In our staff correspondent's report for last week the following paragraph appeared: "Several expenditures over allotments 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 five hundred dollars which was over the allotment." A further investigation of your correspondent into this statement also reveals a controversial point between the president of the university and the university architect. The university architect, in an interview, stated that the above referred to five hundred dollars was a sum advanced by him personally for which he holds a can (Continued on page 9) Washington Tribune FITTING TRIBUTE PAID TO MEMORY OF ROSENWALD Meeting at Lincoln Temple Addressed by Wilkinson, Johnson, Simon & Hueston A fitting tribute was paid to the memory of the late Julius Rosenwald, great philanthropist, who recently died in Chicago, at the memorial exercises held under the auspices of the Rosenwald Memorial Committee at the Lincoln Congregational Temple, Monday night. Bishop E. D. W. Jones presided and addresses were made by Garnet C. Wilkinson, Dr. E. E. Just, Rabbi Abram Simon, W. C. Hueston, Congressman Oscar DePrist, and Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson. Mr. Wilkinson gave an expression of appreciation for the raising of the educational standard of America by Rosenwald's philanthropy in the organization of 5,756 rural schools in 14 Southern States which have benefited over 600,000 Negro youths. An expression of gratitude for the "opportunities" Mr. Rosenwald made possible in the field of scientific research was made by Dr. Just. Comparing the spirit of Rosenwald with that of Abraham Lincoln, both of whom were natives of Springfield, Ill., Rabbi Simon declared that the late philanthropist was "so imbued with the atmosphere and reared under the aura of Lincoln that he realized his ideal of justice, mercy and humility." Rabbi Simon pointed out that Rosenwald's theory was that each eration should have its philanthropists from one of its own generation. Attorney Hueston illustrated the fact that Rosenwald had challenged all men to be above their prejudices in affording opportunity to all. This idea was enlarged upon (Continued on page two) MILTON GUY TO GET NEW TRIAL IN YORK CASE MILTON GUY TO GET NEW TRIAL IN YORK CASE The Death Sentence of Jno Borum and John Logan To Stand Milton Guy one of the three men convicted of murdering Lamar Watson York, white prohibition agent, in Brooks court, northwest, April 12, 1930, will be given a new trial, while the convictions of the other two men, John Borum and John Logan will stand, the District Court of Appeals ruled Monday. The court ordered a new trial for Guy on the grounds that there was no testimony connecting Guy with the shooting, with the exception of a statement by Borum. Guy was said to have been talking to the dry agent when the other two men entered the alley. The Court of Appeals sent the case to the United States Supreme Court for a decision as to the consistency of a verdict which found all three men not guilty of actually firing the shot that killed York, and then found all the three guilty collectively. The highest court ruled a verdict did not have to be consistent: that each count of an indictment stood as though it was a separate indictment. This point was raised by Attorney Peter Richardson, counsel; for the three men.

RICHARDSON SUED FOR $1,194 BY RHODY MCCOY Terrel Case on Trial Charging Attorney With False Pretense Rhody "Roy" McCoy, 439 New Jersey avenue, northwest, file papers in District Supreme Court Saturday, suing Attorney Peter D. Richardson, with offices in the Masonic Temple Building, for the sum of $1,194, the larger amount of which McCoy alleges was given to Richardson to invest for him. The bill alleges that the sum of $1,109 was given Richardson by McCoy to invest with the understanding that the profit from the investment would be split between them on an equal basis. McCoy further claims that Richardson has not only failed to pay him any of the profits but has refused to return to him the principal. sum. The $85 balance of the amount sued for, McCoy claims, is the remainder of an amount due him as the result of a real estate investment on property on Gresham place northwest. The declaration was filed by Attorneys Howard and Hayes. The major portion of the sum of money is said to have been the money which was lent to Albert Brooks on the property of his sister, Mrs. Alberta Terrell. The case against Attorney Richardson, on charges of false pretenses was being aired in the District Supreme Court. Wednesday and yesterday, Richardson was defending himself. Paper Signed The first witness to take the stand on the opening of the trial was Mrs. Alberta Terrell who told the court that Attorney Richardson presented to her for signature on December 31, 1930 papers which she believed to be a deed of trust but later found out to be a deed transferring a piece of property in the 2400 block of M street, northwest, to the lawyer, Richardson is alleged to have borrowed a sum of $15,000 on the property. Mrs. Terrell's husband, Mr. William H. Terrell, brother of the late Judge Robert Terrell, followed her on the stand. Mr. Terrell told the court of the circumstances which led him to the discovery of the alleged misrepresentation. Last Sept-mber when he paid taxes on the property in question he found that the property was listed in the name of Attorney Richardson. He consulted Joseph T. Holland, real estate dealer of the 1900 block of Seventh street, northwest, as to whether it was necessary to transfer: the ownership of property when one had secured a deed of trust on it. After being informed that this was not necessary, Mr. Terrell called on Attorney Richardson whom Mr. Terrell declared on the stand refused to talk to him, only in private. The matter was then put in the hands of the District Attorney's office. Albert Brooks, brother of Mrs. Terrell, followed Mr. Terrell on the stand and during his testimony, the case was adjourned until the next day. axing BO COLORED WOMEN'S FEDERATION HEAR OSCAR DEPRIEST The Congressman Suggests Women Conduct A National Lobby At the semi-annual meeting of the Colored Women's Federated Clubs of Washington and Vicinity, Congressman Oscar DePriest, of Illinois, in an address to the ladies Thursday night at the Park Road A.M.E.

DEPENDABILITY —the keystone of business and— An Outstanding Character of THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE For the Advertiser For the Customer COLORED-WHITE BOARD MEMBERS SPLIT ON ISSUE Gilligan Flayed For Attitude in Favoring Whites' Protest A question of color sharply divided the members of the Board of Education Wednesday, when all three of the colored members voted against a resolution introduced by Henry Gilligan, board member, that the board ask the District, Commissioners to defer action in acquiring any more land for schools following a protest of white groups against the erection of a colored school at Rock Creek Road and Allison St. All five of the white members present voted for the resolution, Daniel C. Roper, white, was the only member not present at the meeting. WHITES PROTEST A group of over 100 white residents comprising various churches, associations and organizations were in attendance at the meeting to protest against the proposed erection of the school. Arthur W. Cline, white was spokesman for the group. He outlined what purported to be a survey of the locality in which he attempted to show that there were only thirty-seven colored children of school age in the district. Dr. Frank W. Ballon superintendent of schools denied the allegation and pointed out that a recent survey by school officials revealed that there were about 100 children of school age in the vicinity of the proposed school. Dr. Ballou said figures submitted by Mr. Cline were from a map made in 1927 and doot reveal true conditions in the section at the present time. FURTHER STUDY PROJECT At the suggestion of Dr. J. Hayden Johnson the board agreed to have school officers to further study the situa- tion and take the matter up at another meeting. Dr. F. I. A. Bennett protested a demonstration by the white group when they applauded a statement by one of their members that a real estate firm had bought up a large piece of property on which colored lived and would erect homes for whites. Mrs. Mary McNeill took issue with Mr. Cline when he stated that he had the interest of the citizens of Wash- ton and the capital in seeking to pre- vent the school from being built. Mrs. McNeill asker the spoken, "When you say all the citizens, you mean white only?" Mr. Cline denied he meant whites only in reference to his concern for the city, Mrs. McNeill also said she thought the matter was a problem of real estate rath than education. GILLIGAN PLAYED In an interview with school officers after the meeting several told the *Tribune* that Mr. Gilligan seemed unduly antagonistic towards colored persons in certain matters that have come before the board in reference to adjusting school problems where whites were concerned They said the board was interested in meeting the educational needs of the community rather than settling real estate problems.

February 12 is Lincoln's birthday and let us celebrate it by attending this Negro history program on Friday, February 12, at 8 p.m. The second semester began Monday with an increase of about 25 pupils, and more are expected, making 335 pupils in the building. On account of the crowded condition in the lower grades all classes through the second grade have been forced to go one-half time, this is caused by the crowded conditions of the schools, and is a great hardship for the little children in the lower grades. Mrs. Rose Butler Brown will address the pupils at their morning assembly next Wednesday morning on "Negro History." The work on the Elks home on N. Henry street is progressing and the lodge expects to hold their next meeting in the building if the work continues to make progress.

The Salutation was given by James Beverly Mitchell. Anna Corrine Mason rendered a vocal solo, "Calm As The Night," which was followed by the Class History read by Mildred Annett Logan. The Class Will was read by Nannette Eleanor Keys and the future of the class was foretold by Theresa Helen White. Montrose Dunlap, president of the class presented the school with two books as a parting token from the class. G. David Houston the principal, accepted the books on behalf of the school and made a brief farewell address to the class.

The exercises closed with the class song composed by Evelyn Thomas and Joseph Milton Dorsey. On Wednesday, January 27, the students and teachers enjoyed hearing Mme. Fannie Belle DeKnight, a teacher and actress, tell of her colorful career. Forty-five years ago she began her teaching activities which ended in 1927 when David Belasc called her to the stage. Mme DeKnight related some experiences which she encountered while traveling both in America and Europe. Again, she told of the roles which she played in the following picture and stage productions: "Hallelujah," "Lulu Belle," and "The House of Connelley." Concerning "Hallelujah," it is interesting to remark that Lon Chaney once enumerated the five pictures which he enjoyed most. One of these was "Hallelujah," and the particular scene mentioned was the one where the mammy sang the babies to sleep. Mme DeKnight was the mammy. In conclusion, she urged the students to seek a vocation in which they were interested, to work hard, to develop character, and success would be inevitable. Twenty girls' sections participated in the intersection volley ball game. Semi-finals were played to secure class champion section.

Give Do you have lovely thoughts to give? Give them freely while you live. If you have gracious words to say, Say them somewhere every day. Gi: some tender heartening cheer, Help and courage without fear; Give the best of all that's true, And the best will always come to you. America In America we always get plenty of sunshine—we are never cast from that. By George Edward Roulhac "They never come back, says ar BEWARE THE COLD TH The way of the lost is down to the depths. When sailors depart the peace of the fold, No power remains to retrace miles-steps. The derelict wrecks on the com- back rail; The frigid gales of the unbeaten truck; Repeat the refrain, "The never come back." Yet said there a man in the long agb. Whose teachings on life encircle the earth: CREOM FOR THE COUGH OR BABY FRETFUL, And purity glean from sepul- chral dearth, The sinneth a man oft as sparks andend, I bid him return and give me his tweak And I'll pilot him to his journey's end." Who now will dare say, "They never come back"? Friend, I'm coming back tho long is the road. And stern the trials twixt here and my goal. I've sheeled myself to the heft of the load; I've hardened my heart—I have cleaned my soul. I'm on the march now, my vision is clear.

TORIA IN CRY FOR IT SPORTING NEWS of the DAY TWELVE SP COPYRIGHT BISONS DEFEAT MORGAN COLLEGE First Victory Won by Howard Over Bears in Period of Seven Years --- BALTIMORE — Defeating Morgan College for the first time in seven years on a Baltimore court Friday night, Howard University's basketball team proved a real contender for the C.I.L.A.A. championship. The score was Howard, 34, Morgan, 29. With "Mickey" Syphax still nursing an injury received in the A and T game at Greensboro, Coach Hurt decided that it would not be necessary to include Conrad in the starting line-up because of an injured ankle. But Hall scored three field goals in rapid succession, with another by Pinn, and a single by Pinn and Sewell, while Morgan was able to garner only t points from the foul line, one by Gibson, and another by Hackett for a Howard lead of 10-2. Conrad Comes in Conrad Comes in With six minutes to play, Morgan took the second time out. Conrad replaced Hackett at center, and Hackett went to forward for Rawlings, and Saunders at guard for Jones. In the last six minutes Hackett shot two field goals, Saunders one, with a single from the foul line by Conrad, while Hall and Williams were adding two double deckers for Howard, with the score at half-time, Howard, 14, Morgan, 9. In the second half Morgan came back with its usual dash, overtook Howard, and ran up a ten point lead, with the score of 25-15. Taylor started the Howard rally with a long shot from the right center, followed by a close up by Reid and another by Taylor, and two from the foul line by Pinn, when Hall made a point on a technical foul. Reid dropped in another to give Howard a one point lead when Gilson dropped a long one from the center of the floor again to put Morgan in front. Hall Stars Like a flash Hall looped another from mid-court, and in the last minute of play, with the whole Morgan team drawn up under the basket trying desperately to make the deciding goal, Tibbs, who had substituted for Sewell at guard, twice took the ball and dribbed to the other end of the court for field goals and the deciding score of 34-29. Supurb guarding and timely shots by the entire Howard team with Hall as a constant threat baffled the C.I.A.A. champions in what was said to be one of the best games witnessed on a Baltimore court.

MANCHESTER AND SHAW LOSE TO TECH Aranstrong High School's court combination continued its winning ways by defeating two teams on their home court last Wednesday and Friday, the Shaw Night School tossers, being the victims on the first occasion and the Manchester A.C. bowing after a thrilling encounter on the latter date. Tech completely outplayed the Night School team, 35 to 12 when Manchester put a stubborn battle and bowed only when Giles, Armstrong center, clinched the decision in the final minute with a floor goal.

College quintette by the score of 20 to 17, here Saturday. The game was fast from the very start, but neither team was able to score for the first three minutes of play. However, A. and T. got the jump on the Bulls when Burgess, A. and T.'s forward, made a beautiful crisp shot for the initial score of the game. The Smith cagers seemed unable to fathom the vaunted defense of the Aggies. In the meantime Burgess and Washington were amassing basket after basket. And with but two minutes before half-time, A. and T. led by the score of 13 to 1. J. C. Smith U. Lineup A. & T. College Matthew a. F. Burgess Robinson F. McCoy Christian C. Washington Dudley G.

Morrow UNION PANTHERS CLAW PANTHERS St. Paul Trails Union In One-Sided Court Contest Saturday By Rupert Picott RICHMOND, Va.—The Virginia Union University court squad ran roughshod over the St. Paul Insti- tute five to the tune of 34-25. Union kept the lead throughout the entire playing period, the score at the end of the first half being 19-9 in favor of Union. The Union basketteers functioned as a unit; there was little individual action. A smooth, clean, aggressive game characterized their play. The guarding of Keller, the shooting of Stackhouse, the footwork of Carey, the passing game of Yancey, the center jumping tactics of Miller, all contributed to the precision activity of the Richmond unit. Coach Robinson's St. Paul boys showed themselves to be real fighters—a scrappy aggregation, Butler, a left-hander, had a keen eye and found the basket for some beautiful long-range shots. Benton's floor-work attracted favorable notice and it was Caldwell who set the pace in the first few minutes following the opening of the game. In the preliminary game—Senior Class versus Sophomore Class—the Senior aggregation composed of Henderson Forrester Washington Kersey J. Williams, and Aristead piled up nineteen points to win the inter-mural basketball championship by the score of 19-5. Previous to this date the Seniors defeated the Juniors, while the Sophomore's took the Freshman team into camp. JOHNSON C. SMITH BEATS HAMPTON N. C. Dribblers Take Lead At Start To Upset Seasiders By A. A. Thompson CHARLOTTE, N.C.—Johnson C. Smith's pepy basketeers caught the jump on the Hampton Institute loopsters here Thursday night and won a thrilling and hard fought game by the score of 27 to 24. The Smith cagers took the lead at the very outset of the game and at no time during the game did they relinquish it. Although the Hamptonians threatened to take the lead time and again only to find the Smith defense impregnable in the pinches. Hampton presented one of the greatest defensive fronts ever seen here, but the Johnson C. Smith offense was in rare form and broke through at opportune times to score on sensational shots by Matthews, Robinson, Dudley, and Houston. Matthews started the scoring hostilities with a sensational back handed throw from the very center of the court for a basket. This was the most beautiful shot of the night. J. William's free throw placed Hampton in the scoring column. Smith led in the scoring throughout the first half, but never led by more than a one point margin. The score for the first half stood: Smith 11, Hampton, 10. The second half was just about a replica of the first half, neither team letting up an inch. The brilliant guarding of Captain Carter and Scott of Hampton kept the score down. The game was a rather rough tilt both teams seeming over anxious to win. The guards would leap high into the air to block passes making the game as exositive as a thrilling football encounter. Mathews and Robinson on the offense, and Corbin, Christian and Captain Dudley on the defense starred for Smith, Carter, Scott and J. Williars played great all around ball for Hampton. Mathews led the scoring for the night with 8 points, and Robinson was runner-up with 7 points. Armstrong High School Defeats Le Rover A. C. The Armstrong High School easily trounced the Le Rover A. C. on the court of the Armstrong gymnasium by a 44 to 15 score. The school boys were in tip-top form and the result was never in doubt. Armstrong Night School team is coached by Jimmy Lea.

The fast stepping Hoard boys jolted Douglass and they registered for the first time this season in the lost column. Dunbar eked out a one point victory to tally for the first time this season in the cone series. The downfall: of the Ducks and the Clerks have added intensely to the interest: in the race for championship honors. Armstrong has its collective eye set on a second straight championship. The Generals have broken even in two conference tilts. There is a strong feeling that Armstrong will take Douglas into camp when they meet Wednesday in Baltimore. Their first meeting was characterized as a close guarding affair. Douglas caged three goals from the floor and Armstrong chalked up two. Out of 33 fouls committed by both teams, Armstrong collected 8, and Douglas collected 8 of their free throw attempts. * * * * * Howard has lost one of their four conference games so far and the statisticians in Wilmington insist that the conference title will be on by a team with one or more defeats this year. Cardozo entertains Howard on their home court in Washington. Three weeks, ago Howard was victor with a score 34 to 17. After the game coach Clifford insisted that the Clerks were capable of even better play than they displayed against Howard. If that is true, Howard had better watch out. * * * * * Armstrong quintet is clearly the class of the conference when it comes to defensive play as they have been scored upon only at the rate of 21 points per game. Howard second, and Douglass, third. Cardozo improves. Cardozo, though failing as yet to break into the win column, is showing vast improvement and has put up good fights in recent games. It is not expected that coach Clifford's proteges will be a great menace this season, but that they will upset the dope before the season is over is not at all unlikely. ***** Coach Pekins' Poets are now hitting their stride. They have lost three games, 3, 2 and one points and won the last game by one point. It is rather dangerous to predict, but it is safe to say the outfit will make a lot of trouble from now on and be a decisive factor in the awarding of the championship.

Henderson Several years ago the principals of the junior high schools of Division 10-13 abolished inter school athletes and drill competitions of the traditional college varsity type. In place of this form of athletics an intensive intramural athletic program was fostered. It was felt too few pupils got the benefits of compititive game situations. The physical directors, who were also athletic coaches, in order to train their teams to win games in competition with other junior high schools were forced to sacrifice so much time that rightfully should have been used for the help of a larger percentage of boys in the schools. Then, too, this newly emerged junior: high school population had not been trained sufficiently in the emotional controls of spectatorship that would enable them to react with individual benefit in crowds at exciting school contests. The junior high school principals gave favorable heed to a big intramural program of competitive athletics and sports. The present competitive intramurals for girls include the following activities within their seasons: Fall — Schlagball and dodge ball; Winter — volley ball, basketball, handball, and tumbling; Spring — playground baseball, horseshoes, paddle tennis, track and field events. For boys the following schedules are used: Fall — soccer, touch football; Winter — handball, volley ball, basketball, and tumbling; Spring — playground ball, horseshoes, paddle tennis, track and field. Large Variety This program gives opportunity for try-out experience in a variety of games and contests. Some of the events are the larger team games where the individual is submerged and learns to cooperate with the group. These games serve most pupils only during their school days. Other games of the individual type have great carry-over value for these students who develop beyond the mere novice or "dub" state. In order to give the smaller, less experienced, or weaker boy or girl competitive situations, all pupils in the school are classified according to the combined factors of age, height, and weight. This grouping renders the units as nearly homogeneous as practical, at this time, for the competition in the various activities and games. To insure large numbers of pupils engaging in intramurals, teams are formed in sections or home rooms. In basketball and volleyball there may be a lightweight and a heavyweight team in each section, or home room. In playground ball, soccer, dodge ball, schlag ball, and touch football, the home room teams of each year, without regard for further classification, compete for a championship within the year. Also home room winners in individual sports meet for a school championship series. Tournaments Planned Last year for the first time, various tournaments were held during which, the intramural home room school champions from each school met in a short elimination series and played through to a winner. For this coming semester inter-school intramural tournaments are planned for boys in basketball, handball, tumbling, paddle tennis, playground baseball and 'ack and field. In basketball, the home room winning teams in the second intramural championships, will meet with the lightweight and heavyweight intramural champions of the home rooms of Shaw, Randall, Garnet-Patterson, Francis and Cardozo during the week of March 3-March 10. Volley ball tournaments for the intramural winners will occur March 21, 22, and 24. Handball singles will be played at Francis and Garnet-Patterson on April 4. Tumbling teams will meet at Shaw on April 14. Playground ball tournaments will be held May 16 to May 21 at various fields. A track meet will be held June 2, and a paddle tennis championship will be decided June 7 and 8. Supervise The physical education teachers of boys and girls educate in these intramural programs and tournements. In some schools a well organized intramural system exists. Students (representatives as individuals and committees) manage and officiate the contests with ALL ARE WELCOME BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL Don't Gamble with your kidneys and bladder INSIST ON THE GENUINE GOLD MEDAL HAARLEM OIL CAPSULES teachers acting largely in supervisory capacity. Altogether, the program of intramurals conducted upon a uniform basis in all the junior high schools and ending in tournaments in which these intramural winners meet in an honor series of contests, is the best scheme, we have yet hit upon, to meet with the objectives of educational objectives for a larger number of participants. By the time the pupils reach the senior high schools they have had some training in the ethics and controls of inter-school competition as spectators and participants, and are ready for the more highly developed inter-school athletic forms although, even there, many of the intramural types of competition survive for the masses. "Lamb" Johnson Hero As Knoxville Beats W. Va. By Isaiah W. Crippins KNOXVILLE, Tenn—People who have weak hearts had no business at the gymnasium during the West Virginia-Knoxville College basketball game Monday night. When the final bell, rang the ball was in the air spinning around the Knoxville basket with victory or defeat depending on which way it dropped. The tense crowd shrieked wit. joy when it spun through the loop to give Knoxville College a one point victory. Score, 24-23. The game proved to be a thriller from start to finish. The West Virginians got off to a fast start and had registered a five point lead before the Knoxville basketeers could find the loop. The Knoxville College's passing attack did not seem to be up to par, and when the ball was worked down the floor the try for goal was missed. In spite of these faults the Bulldog's machine functioned well enough to lead the mountaineers at half 9-7. Here Captain "Lamb" Johnson of Knoxville, assumed the role of hero. After breaking up an attempt by West Virginia to freeze the ball, he crouched about two feet behind the center line and sent one through the mesh. Pandemonium broke loose at this point. Hampton Stops Winning Streak by Va. State By Enoc P. Waters Jr. HAMPTON, INST, Va.—An agile Hampton court machine swung gracefully into action on its home floor last Saturday afternoon and with unrelenting aggressiveness severed an unbroken chain of eight victories rung up by the formidable Virginia Staters by coming out on the long end of a 28-19 score. The upstate contingency jumped ahead with a twin pointer and the Seasidders bagging a foul lagged a point behind, then shot ahead for a narrow lead. Both teams, wide awake and on their toes, played a man to man defense keeping wide of the baskets. Hampton slipped through for two more field goals, registered a foul and the half closed with Virginia State behind on an 8-3 count. Hampton (28) Va. State (19) White R.F. Pennington .ancaster Hurn .

Warner Oland, supreme in Oriental characterizations, appears as Charlie Chan, the famed Chinese detective from Honolulu. The lovers are Marion Nixon and Alexander Kirkland, last seen as the youngest son in "Surrender." Others in the cast are H. B. Warner, Linda Watkins, James Kirkwood and Ralph Morgan. The story details the newest adventures of Charlie Chan, this time in a New York setting, where he finds himself studying the police methods of that city. The role of Charlie Chan gives Oland full play for his unusual talents developed during a long period of experience on the stage and screen. He has been playing Oriental roles for many years, appearing in such outstanding productions as "Dr. Fu Manchu," "The Return of Dr. Fu Manchu," "The Black Camel," and "Charlie Chan Carrys On." Altogether, "Charlie Chan's Chance" is a superior mystery drama. One thrilling situation follows another and the audience is kept guessing as to who actually committed the crime. The suspense does not end until the final fadeout. At Last It's Here! Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. A rare treat is in store for local movie-goers, starting Tuesday at the Lincoln Theatre, for "The Big Parade," King Vidor's masterpiece, has been reissued by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer with sound effects and will be shown at this theatre for three days.

GLORIA SWANSON AT BOOKER-T "Tonight or Never," Gloria Swanson's latest starring vehicle, is by far the best of her colorful career. This picture, an entertaining sophisticated attraction with a delicate sex theme throughout, has just finished a long run on Broadway. The heroine, a famous opera singer, is angered at her music teacher when he states her voice is cold; that it lacks passion. He tells her that to become a great singer a woman must first live and love. Miss Swanson immediately goes out in search of love and her many thrilling and startling disclosures make "Tonight or Never" one of the realest pictures of the year. Especially interesting is the sequence where she takes unto herself what is commonly known as a giggle, and after spending an entire evening and night with him she finds that he is really the di- R T North 3000 WEEK BEGINNING FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5th Gloria Swanson in Tonight or Never SHE STOLE WHAT WAS ALREADY HERS TIN TIN in ING WARRIER" No. 1 THE JAZZ CLUB Back row, left to right: Fred Jenkins, Charlie Williams, Arty Whetsol, Juan Tizol, Juan Manton and Sonny Greer.

They are Buck and Bubbles, for years on the Keith Circuit and of late Broadway favorites. The Follies of this season saw Buck and Bubbles in a spot that was a credit to their ability, offering something entirely different. This team has always drawn a large salary, and coming to the Howard Theatre has made no change in their pay check. The screen's greatest comediene, Edna May Oliver, in "Ladies of the Jury" with Stuttering Roscoe Jones, will be the big attraction, "Ladies of the Jury" is a comedy drama packed with thrilling features. There will be two mid-night shows on Tuesday and Friday nights. "Ladies of the Jury" is the story of a typical mixed jury of men and women who can only agree to disagree. **Comedy Thick and Fast** With this plot as the motivating theme, the film plunges into an amazing series of comic situations and reveals much of the inside workings of the jury system in the process. The film tells the story of twelve different types of jurors who find themselves locked in a room for the purpose of deciding the fate of a pretty show girl accused of murder. Fights, accusations and constant bickering revolve about the personality of Miss Oliver who finally wins the others to a verdict of guilty by playing on their emotions and racial differences. Great Supporting Cast The film does not depend upon Miss Oliver alone to carry along the laughs. Director Lowell Sherman has provided a supporting cast which includes almost a score of the cinema's most noted comedians. Among these are Ken Murray, radio and vaudeville favorite; Roscoe Ates, stuttering comedian of "Cimarron"; Kitty Keuy, Guinn "Big Boy" Williams, Kate Price, Cora Witherspoon, and George Humbert. A DORIE ALEXANDER is another of the exotic beauties from "Harlem Scandals," the colorful and tuneful stage revue recently produced by Irving Mills, the sponsor of Duke Ellington and Cab Calloway. Miss Alexander was one of the fortunate dancers selected by Mr. Mills in following out his theory of "glorifying" the sepia girls in the Ziegfeld manners by making grace, beauty and charm, in addition to dancing ability, essential qualifications for his chorus. Discussion is necessary, but too much talk hinders progress. A large committee against a few produces an excess of talk. To safeguard a committee against wasting its energies, the members must be a few. STRAND Deanwood, D.C. 2 Blocks from Suburban Gardens TALKING PICTURES C. J. CLARKE, Mgr.

Judge Robert L. Williams, who presided at the hearing, has taken the evidence under advisement and announced that he will render a decision in the near future. The Raymond case is unique—strange—and then some more; it scarcely has a parallel in many respects. Back in 1903, May 2, to be exact, there was born to Davis and Rhina Jackson a son who was named Raymond. There were eight other children born to these two parents. The Jackson family is one of six boys and three girls. On October 29, 1921, the parents and the other children, allege that Raymond left home—hundreds of Wewokans bear witness to the same. Raymond is said to have had Pine Bluff, Arkansas, as his destination. Several other boys ran away from home at the same time. It seems they all were beating their way on freights and Raymond is reported to have been killed between Blue Mountain and Booneville, Arkansas, November 3, 1921. The parents and children utter this, as do also divers depositions by Arkansans and the Rock Island R.R. on which Raymond was killed. The body was not immediately returned home here, but was buried along the Rock Island right-of-way. Being the son of a Seminola freedman. Raymond was allotted forty acres of oil land—that is and which later was found to pos- KIDNEY AND BLADDER DISORDERS Yield to Time Tested Treatment AND many of the other alliments that are at the root of these distressing conditions soon yield to its wonderful healing properties.

"I would have heartburn, and indigestion pains after meals. "Nothing seemed to help me. I tried everything I could hear of but my indigestion hung on four years. "Then a friend got me to take some Pape's Diaper din. I had almost immediate relief with the first two tablets.

The parents naturally took possession of Raymond's allotment. Meantime scores of Raymonds bobbed up all over the West—and from as far east as "Ole Kentucky. Each Raymond filed as an intervenor and claimed to be the "real" Raymond Jackson who departed. The parents said "Impossible." The body of the ill-fated Raymond was exhumed, brought to Wewoka and buried in the Jackson family cemetery plot. Denial, claim and counter denial and claim followed. Many of the Raymonds failed to show up for court when the date was at hand. Meantime, two Raymonds, one from Ole Kentucky and the other from far-away California, dared face the parents and claim them as their own. The parents denied them as did their eight children. A Widow Shows Up But during the past week, Oklahoma witnessed two "Raymonds," one Raymond Jackson dubbed "Kentucky" Raymond Jackson, because he hailed from the Blue Grass State, and the other "California" Raymond because he hailed from that far-away state. Judge Robert L. Williams, aged white-haired jurist and former governor of Oklahoma, presided during the trial which saw two boys, each of whom vied with the other to prove themselves to be the "real" and long sought for and much desired Raymond Jackson. Each one most positively identify himself as the "real" Raymond. Others supported them—even the midwife came to "Kentucky's" aid and solemnly she'd shew "swehe" was the "real" Raymond on a stack of Bibles forty feet high." The Jackson parents, their children and others were equally as positive and emphatic that each pretender was "Impossible." Picks Out Wreng Man "California" is supposed to have been ill one time since leaving home and his father was said to have sent word to send money to pay for medicinal purposes. The man who said he carried the message to the father was positive he could identify the father. On being told to do so, he pointed out Judge W. H. Twine, veteran Negro Muskogee lawyer as the father. The real father was not in court at the time of the identification. Laughter ruled for awhile at this point. The lawyers were given thirty days to file briefs, answers and counter briefs; then, the case will be taken under advisement, and Judge Williams will study and render a decision. Meantime, in 1926, a fake Raymond and his accomplice were sent to McAlester state penitentiary for seven and fifteen years, respectively, because the former Clint Williams, of Fort Worth, Texas, was induced to do so by Dave Hutton, of Feufaula, who made a trip to Fort Worth to frame Clint Williams. The father, Rev. D. A. Jackson, is a Baptist minister and went to Africa with Chief Sam in 1914, but returned after spending one year and four months. Elementary Schools Hold Joint Exercises The joint promotion exercises of the Sixth B classes of the Bruce and Monroe Schools was held Thursday at the Morgan School. The exercises were featured by an address by Rev. A. F. Elmes, and the presentation of promotion reports by Miss Mineola Kirkland, supervising principal of Division 10. Students participating in the program were Everine J. Reele and Charlotte Wesley of Bruce School, and Richard Ray and La Verne Berry of Monroe School. Mrs. L. C. Green, member of the Monroe Parent-Teacher Association was presiding officers, while the invocation and benediction were said by Rev. Elmes. Music was furnished by the graduates. College Women Discuss Inter Racial Trends 一 The College Ammanu Cub held its meeting Saturday in the rose room of the Phyllis Wineatly Y.W.C.A. After the routine matters had been cleared up, the evening was spent in an illuminating discussion of inter-racial trends. Miss Bertha McNeill chairman of the committee studying inter-racial trends, presented the main speaker of the evening, Mrs. Faith Williams, a member of President Hower's Housing Commission. Mrs. Williams discussed the matter of inter-racial trends in its relation to housing conditions only; she failed to give any evidence of better social adjustments of the races in America. She urged the audience to make a budget and live by it. Many financial losses would not have occurred if people had lived by budgets just after the World War, declared the speaker. Miss McNeill read many replies to letters which had been sent to distinguished members of the other race, which told of the trend of inter-racial thoughts on inter-racial matters DISTRICT SCHOOLS PROMOTE OVER 700 TO JUNIOR HIGHS Continued from Page Nine From Stevens School Russell David Wallace G.

Dr. Anderson Delivers On Balanced Ration With a market basket of assorted fresh green vegetables and fruits at her side, Dr. Viola Russell Anderson secretary of the Association for the Prevention of Tuberculosis, gave a practical talk on balanced diet to 300 men and women at the Palais Royal department store Saturday morning at 9 o'clock. Dr. Anderson, who was presented by Manager C. A. Case stressed the importance of variety in selecting 2 diet and avoiding too much starch foods, making provision for more of the green vegetables, salads and fruits. The moral of her tale was that the body properly nourished with such a diet is far more likely to be able to resist the approach of disease in general and cf tuberculosis in particular. Miner Teachers College News At the opening assembly of the new semester at the Miner Teachers College, President Clark impressed upon the students the value of selecting an ideal and working steadily toward its accomplishment.

The junior class was represented by Dorothy Bogan, Mabel Dade, Christine Garner, Josephine Toyer, Ruby Stevens; the sophomore class by Adelaide Webb, Eunice Shaed, Imogene Holland, Hilda Lawson, Sabrinah Overton, Josephine Farrar, Jessie Holloman, Juanita Smackum, Thelina Johnson, Mildred Terrell, and Ruth Syphax Washington May Be In East-West Baseball Loop Cum Posey Heads New Loop Formed At Cleveland; Seek To Have Eight Clubs Lined Up Before Season Starts In Spring the league make-up is that the Cleveland Municipal Stadium will in all probability be the home of the Cleveland team. Negotiations that appear very favorable are under way for Lem Williams' charges to make their home stand at the lake front stadium. The baseball delegates inspected the mammoth municipal athletic plant, which was completed last July, and was the scene of the Schmelling-Stribbling fight. The plant is equipped with flood lights for night baseball, and the Cleveland Indians of the American League have been considering switching from League Park to the Stadium. However, when the city fathers failed to come to terms with Alva Bradley's company, it left the gate open for Lem Williams to attempt to link the stadium up with the East-West Colored League. The league will play a split schedule opening May 7, and finishing September 15, with Philadelphia as the scene of the February meeting, at which time the schedule will be adopted. Fast Fisk Five Takes Two From Tuskegee BY R. S. Scruggs NASHVILLE, Tenn.—The Fighting Fisk Bulldogs took two hard fought games from the boys from Tuskegee. Fisk took the first affair by a 23-22 count. Tuskegee found themselves at the short end of a 27-18 count in the second af Tuskegee scoring six points before fair. The first game started off with Fisk boys could get going. Tuskegee held her lead and increased it and was at the long end of a 16-11 count when the whistle blew for the half. The Bulldogs came back strong in the second half and the score was soon neck and neck. When the time keepers announced two minutes to go the crowd was in a frenzy with the score tied at 22 all. Both teams started some fast passing and close guarding. Evans, the Chicago, ace, made a free throw good with thirty seconds to go and gave Fisk a victory.

CLEVELAND, Ohio.—The initial step to combine the colored baseball forces of the East and West was effected at the Majestic Hotel, in Cleveland, when the representatives of the major clubs organized the East-Vest Colored League, whose officers are pointing to an eight-club circuit that already embraces the largest and best cities. The sessions lasted two days in the Ohio city, and was attended by the following representatives: Pittsburgh, Cum Posey and Charlie Walker; Detroit, John Rossink; Baltimore, George Rossiter; Philadelphia, Johnn - Drew and Lloyd Thompson; Cleveland, L. R. "Lem" Williams; Newark, N.J., was figured as a prospective member, but Oliver Brown, the business manager of the Newark Brown, has since passed out the information that the directors of their company have considered that the time is not ripe for the Brownns to step up in big time baseball. Washington May Have Club However, with the assurance of an influential Washington business man, it is virtually conceded that the District of Columbia will be represented in the League with a fast club for the sixth club. To balance the situation, one more representative city is desired in both the East and West. Either New York or Brooklyn will round out the East, and lines are out for another city in the West, with Chicago set as a limit for distance. The league has a lapsed commission form government an a board of club representatives Cum Posey, George Rossiter, and Lloyd Thompson will serve in that capacity. Cum Posey was chosen chairman of the commission; Johnny Drew, treasurer; and Lloyd Thompson, secretary. Cut Salaries The matter of reducing the overhead expenses, of which salaries is the major item, was given serious consideration by the club owners who have come to the ultimate opinion that only with lower salaries can they expect to operate. Also they wish to make it known that with the formation of the league, changed conditions, reduced salaries and the elimination of extras, formerly expended, not a single player is in line and when contracts are sent out in the near future the next move is up to the diamond athletes.

SWIFT EAGLE IS OLYMPIC TIMBER Victory Over 3-Year Old Deer in Race Stamps Him As Candidate When Uncle Sam begins picking out his men to represent America in the sprint at the Olympics this summer, he shouldn't overlook Swift Eagle, of 1430 Swann street, northwest. Now, Swift Eagle never confessed to be a runner, but Monday, the stocky young man outran a three-year-old fallow buck deer. As Eagle was walking south on Connecticut avenue, he cited the anterled buck darting nimbly thru traffic. He immediately gave chase. The deer ran across the Million Dollar Bridge where Swift Eagle overtook J. L., and grabbed him by the antlers. A cab driven by W. F. Gilmore, white, drove up and Eagle with the driver's assistance bundled the kicking buck into the car and returned him to his home z the Zoo. The excitement and exertion was too much for the animal and he died in a few minutes after being placed in the cage, where four hours before it had forced the wire netting apart and escaped. Previous to Swift Eagle's experience, police of the Third and Tenth Precincts and Zoo officials had organized a hunting party in an attempt to round up the fallow buck.

NATHANIEL HALL, Agent. Umpires To Get "Break" In Newly Formed League PITTSBURGH. Pa. (WPS)—As various plans are being made for 1932 baseball, colored umpires will undoubtedly receive more consideration than in previous years. The recently formed East-West League should take up this angle, with better results because their schedules will be confined to Negro teams. "Outlaw" or "Independents" will have more difficulty using race umpires in mixed games. A report coming from headquarters of the Pittsburgh Crawfords carries the news that at least one colored umpire will be on duty at Greenle Park for all home games. If no serious objections are raised, they might employ two. It is also intimated that race umpires will be employed for road games. It is conceded that four men will head the list of candidates for assignment. They win this position because they have established themselves with white and colored fans. Herb Pierce, W. P. Young, Johnny Craig, and "Mo" Harris will probably be rated in this order. Knoxville Basketball Five Wins Three Games in Night KNOXVILLE, Tenn.—Victory in three basketball games in a single evening was the record of Knoxville College teams Friday night—and that without the use of Knoxville College's greatest stars, Captain Johnson, Edwards and Sanford. Men's reserve teams defeated Morristown N. and I. College 23-16, and Austin High School, 30-29. The Knoxville College women swamped Morristown College girls by a 21-7 score in one of the most enjoyable games of the evening. The Morristown varsity five played a fast and consistent game against Knoxville's best reserves. Morristown built up a 9-3 lead and led at the half 12-7. At the opening of the second half Knoxville began to find the basket and went ahead to win 23-16. Fighter Makes Smokey City His Headquarters PITTSBURGH, Pa.

The protest, in a letter from a committee headed by Floyd L. Logan, was read before the finance committee of the board. It was referred to Dr. Edwin C. Broome, superintendent, for investigation. If the charges are proved the volume will be removed at once. But 144 copies are said to be in use. "Your attention is hereby directed to the high-school text Problems of American Democracy," the letter said. "Its chapter on the American race problems which deals with the Negro race is in most part derogatory. In fact, it seems strange that the board of education adopted the text without first requiring the author to revise the chapter in question. Obiections Cited "For instance, the statement that the Negro's ignorance and superstition are proverbial, and that his uncleanliness exacts a terrible toll, is extremely misleading. It leads one to think that such is true of the entire race. And a further statement that the Negro in the South is legally kept from voting, not because of race but because of illiteracy, is not confirmed by an actual survey of that condition in the southern part of the country. "It is the dissemination of such propaganda that, not only has poisoned the minds of many white people against us, but in addition thereto has brought about understanding of the Negro and a consequent mistreatment of him in every department of American social and economic life." The authors are Dr Henry Reed Burgh, head of the department of history and soci1 science at Overbrook high school, and S. Howard Patterson of the Wharton school University of Pennsylvania. Kindergarteners Hold Graduation Exercises The kindergarten B class of the Morgan School, of which Miss Marguerite E. Brent is instructor, issued formal invitations to their graduation exercises, which were held Thursday afternoon. A large number of relatives and friends witnessed the unique affair. To meet the conditions of depression, as well as to encourage social clubs to give more dances, the Murray Casino management makes the sensational announcement that beginning February 1st, the Casino can be booked on a basis of either $25 a night, or on a percentage basis. Clubs desiring to take advantage of this offer are requested to file their application for dates at once stating which of the two propositions is desired. Seeks to Amend 'Color' Bill ALBANY, N.Y.—Assemblyman James Edward Stephens, the only Negro member of the present legislature introduced for the second time, his famous bill to ammend the civil rights law, in relation to discriminations by utilities companies, on account of race or color, in the employment of persons in the operation or maintenance of public service. Last year, when this bill was introduced, it failed to carry by one vote. This year, the Assemblyman, who last election defeated Francis Rivers for the office, says that the bill has more than an even chance for passage, because of the larger number of Democrats in the state legislature. 190 Counties In Southern States Have Majority Negro Population WASHINGTON (CNS)—In figures released recently by the Bureau of Census here, it was shown that there are 190 counties in the twelve Southern States, where the Negro population exceeds that of whites. In these counties the Negro population is 50 per cent or more. These figures indicate a decrease over corresponding figures for the two previous decades. In 1910 there were 264 of such counties and in 1910, 220. Georgia leads the list of Southern States in the number of such counties with a total of 48, Mississippi comes next with 35, South Carolina is third with 25 counties and Virginia fourth with 20.

LILY-WHITE G.O.P IN GEORGIA KICKS BEN DAVIS OUT LILY-WHITE G.O.P IN GEORGIA KICKS BEN DAVIS OUT ATLANTA, Ga., Jan., (ANP)—Republican politics in the state of Georgia took on a new aspect Tuesday when announcement was made that Benjamin J. Davis, secretary of the state Republican committee, had been ousted from the position and that a white man, Wilson Williams, a third class postmaster, of Woodbury had been elected to succeed Mr. Davis. Georgia whites hailed the unceremonious kick in the pants given Mr. Davis as the "purging" of the official ranks of the Republican party of the Negro, forgetting that after the Civil war, it was only through the admission of the Negro to these "official ranks" that the state was allowed to resume its position in the Union. The announcement of the election of Williams was made by J. T. Rose, state chairman, and James W. Arnold of Athens, national committeeman. Although the announcement implied that the bum's rush given Davis was in the form of an election, nobody seems to know anything about such an election, legally held, and the current belief is that Williams was simply appointed by the lily-whites who are determined to boss Republi-an activities in the state. There was some word of a confab held by a group of whites a few weeks ago. en Clint W. Hager, United States attorney for the northern district of Georgia, Edwin K. Large, Atlanta postmaster, and Rose were the guests of M. O. Dunning, collector of the port at Savannah, on a fishing trip. It is believed that the dirty work was planned then. Too Busy Speaking Too Busy Speaking Accompanying the announcement of the boot given Davis was the smokescreen reference to Davis's activities with the Republican national committee. It was held that Mr. Davis was too busy speaking to groups of his own people in northern states as an official representative of the national committee to have time to devote to the proper attention of state affairs. Chairman Rose made the above statement, adding that Davis was being paid by the Republican national committee. However, there are friends close to Mr. Davis who say that the reports of his connections with the Republican chiefs in Washington are much exaggerated. They told that he was acting as a sort of liaison officer and speaker for the national committee for awhile, but at nothing like the reported salary of $7,500 a year. It is even stated that, as long as he was paid, he received no more than $250 a month and expenses. Then the national committee ran out of immediate funds and Mr. Davis is said to have received nothing at all. It is not known whether he is being paid by the committee at this time. The passing of Mr. Davis from a position of influence in the state Republican ranks would seem to indicate that for a time at least the Negro will have lost the principal symbol of power in the Republican party which he once possessed. White men are set in all the key positions. It is not possible at this time to trace the causes of the Negro's failure to hold his own, or to place the blame. The usual charges of Negroes fighting among themselves will be made and in this connection the memorable battle between Davis and "Uncle" Joe Watson of Albany will be recalled. But whether the Negro might have maintained his position if he had kept his ranks close is a moot question. Davis was elected to succeed the late Henry Lincoln Johnson as Republican national committeeman from the state. He served for several years when he became involved in the patronage scandals which were worked up against the committee in several states of the south. While defending himself from these attacks Davis was confronted with the spirited opposition of Watson and his friends. The result was that he lost the position of national committeeman which went to the white man Arnold, and Davis was made secretary of the state committee in a sort of compromise move. DePriest Will Deliver An Address in Lynchburg LYNCHBURG, Va.—Congressman Oscar DePriest will make an address to the citizens of Lynchburg and nearby vicinities on Sunday afternoon February 7, in the chapel of Virginia Seminary at 4 o'clock. Mr. DePriest will speak on the urgent topic: "Some Things the Negro Had Better Do At Once." It is also expected that Mr. De Priest will make a summary of his important and significant non-partisan political conference held recently in Washington. Sugar Purchaser Claims Injury From Glass Howard Quigley, 40, of the 900 block of First street, northeast, was treated at Gallinger Hospital early this week for internal cuts which Quigley told police, he received while drinking some coffee containing sugar with glass in it. The sugar was allegedly purchased from a grocery on Third street, northeast, and Ninth Precinct police had a five-pound bag as evidence and were investigating the buyer's claims. TENNESSEANS WILL SEEK ANTI-LYNCHING LAW State Interracial Commission Pledges Renewed Efforts For Effective Measure NASHVILLE, Tenn.—The Tennessee Interracial Commission, in annual session here this week, pledged renewed efforts for an effective anti-lynching law in this State and expressed itself as hopeful of success. Such a bill, it was stated, was drafted and sponsored by the commission in the last legislature and appeared certain of enactment until a big financial crash involved millions of State funds and blocked all further constructive legislation. The commission announced also a number of other immediate objectives, including better oppo-death rate of the entire Negro physicians and nurses, and better provisions for the care of dependents, defectives and delinquents. The tuberculosis death rate of Negro children in Tennessee is ten times that of white children, the commission was told, and the T.B. death rate o f the entire Negro group three times as high as that of the white. At the same time it was pointed out that tuberculosis is not hereditary, that under same conditions Negroes are no more subject to it than other people, and that most of its great destruction of life could be prevented if proper conditions were provided and proper care taken. Dr. Bent, of Meharry Medical College, emphasized the importance of utilizing all available public health services in fighting this and other diseases from which Negroes suffer heavily. Training In Honesty Prof. H. L. Allison, principal of the high school of Clarksville, maintained that the schools have given too exclusive attention to formal education and too little training in honesty, integrity, thrift, respect of law, and right attitudes towards others. Character building, he maintained, should be the primary aim of education. Dr. J. B. Barber, prominent Negro pastor from Chattanooga, delivered an effective address on the problems of law and order, and Dr. C. H. Boone, of Nashville, spoke on the obligation of the churches to seek the regeneration of society as well as that of the individual. Dr. C. V. Roman spoke briefly and Hon. J. C. Napier, former registrar of the treasury, closed the session with an encouraging and delightful review of the great racial gains achieved within his memory. The meeting was held in the Central Y.M.C.A., and was attended by representative leaders of both races. The interracial work in Tennessee is directed by J. D. Burton, with the active co-operation of Robert E. Clay, state agent for Rosenwald Schools. The chairman is Dr. James E. Clarke, editor of the Presbyterian Advance, and the secretary is Dr. J. A. Lester, of Meharry Medical College. Lightfoot Publishes "Vergil Thru The Ages" The Howard University Press last week published a pamphlet on Vergil Through the Ages, by Prof. George M. Lightfoot, of the Department of Latin. The phamphlet was published as a record of the participation of Howard University in the world-wide celebration of the 200th Anniversary of Vergil's birth, and is dedicated to the students and members of the faculty of the university, to the end of promoting their understanding and appreciation of the influence one of the greatest poets of the Western civilization. Helps Women Avoid Pains MORE than half a century of successful use has shown that Cardui helps women to avoid much that they formerly suffered—misery from minor functional disturbances, monthly suffering due to a weakened condition. Cardui acts as a tonic for the system, and tends to improve the general health. It is of especial value to weak, nervous, run-down women, needing just such a strengthening medicine. Those who suffer every month should build up their strength to assist in the natural correction of the painful condition. When you need Cardui, buy a bottle and take it regularly and persistently. Perhaps several bottles will be needed. Finally, may you share the enthusiasm of the thousands of women who have said: "Cardui helped me!"

BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL STUDENTS DEMAND DISMISSAL OF COLLEGE PREXY Prejudice Given As Cause For Uprising Against President Giffen KNOXVILLE, Tenn.—A demand for the removal of President J. Kelly Giffen, of Knoxville College, was made by revolting students here Wednesday night. A denial that the trouble grew out of the college administration's refusal to permit students to dance was made by one leader of the revolt. The leader whose name for obvious reasons has been withheld told a reporter that: "The idea seems to prevail that the unrest among the student body grew out of the refusal of the faculty to permit dancing and punishment of a group of students for infringement of this rule. Such is a mistaken idea. While the unduly severe punishment meted out to the few students who attended a perfectly proper social affair at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Downs, proved the straw "that broke the camel's back." such an is the timeattan Auto radio Store To Take Care of Your Auto and Merchandise, Best Service, Best $5.00 DEPOSIT DELIVERY PHILCO RADIO As Low As $20.00 Down, Can Own One of Our Pop- teed Used Cars.

"Such accounts for the demands outlined in every speech leading up to the non-violent protest staged by the student body, that the board operating Knoxville College give us a new president if they expect our further patronage" the student concluded. It was further outlined that Richard Hayes, one of most brilliant students at the college, and president of the Freshman class packed his trunk and left in disgust when the other students elected to return to their activities without some word from the authorities that President Giffen would give up the presidency of the college. The strike, it was revealed, was motivated by a letter of condemnation received by the students from William Lovelace, alumnus of Knoxville College, who is now a probation officer working in Cincinnati, and who is president of the Knoxville alumni association.

As this session was the first of the annual meetings to be held in the new building, the occasion had this special attraction for the shareholders. They were eager to have first-hand and complete reports of the great achievement of the directors and officers and field force in completing the magnificent new home office building and carrying on the company's usual activities or business in the midst of the depression. The report of the construction of the new home office building without using any of the special and large deposits accumulated in race banks for this particular purpose, which, if used during the depression, would have caused serious embarrassment to them, was of unusual interest to the shareholders. Of equal interest, was the evidence that the corporation continued during the year its prompt and liberal methods of payment of claims to all policyholders and claimants, although its business, like all others, had been affected by the depression. But the record showing that the field staff had been able to increase premium collections in the life insurance division during the year, was of especial interest to the shareholders. The shareholders of this corporation were highly gratified to learn that the retrenchment program of the directors and officers had resulted in a substantial increase in the surplus of the company during a period when its income had materially fallen off, although the claims and expense, incident to their adjustment, had continued above a normal rate. This evidence of such skillful management and foresight was so very pleasing to the shareholders, that they enthusiastically and unanimously reflected all of the old board and officers, and gave them assurances of their utmost confidence and determination to help them to develop the business to the fullest extent. The directors officers and field force have therefore entered upon a new year, determined to make it the banner one for growth of the company's business, and also very profitable to policyholders and shareholders. Following the meeting, many of the shareholders, especially those from out of town, made a thorough inspection of all divisions of the new home office building and left with a feeling of just pride in the achievements of their company and its exceptionally strong financial condition.

A. ROGERS There are different conceptions of Christ, God, and the virgins in European countries, according to Mr. J. A. Rogers, who spoke before the Baltimore Forum, Sunday at the Elks' Hall. "People in the foreign countries have no thought: about the difference in color." Mr. Rogers said. There is absolutely no color prejudice in Europe. European whites do not like American whites as tourists, except for their money. The only question of color according to Mr. Rogers, is the color of your money. He used a map of the world to illustrate his ramarks, and gave some of the customs of the peoples of the many lands he visited. The question of hair dress is reversed, according to Rogers, who insisted that the darker races of Europe glorify in the kinky hair instead of the straight. Other incidents as humorous were related, quite a few having bearing upon Mr. Roger's travels. John F. Cook Parent- Teacher Presents Portrait Tuesday evening a very large audience of parents and friends was entertained in the auditorium of the John F. Cook School by the 6B pupils who entered the Junior High School on the first of February. In keeping with the nation wide program of the Bi-Centennial Commission in honor of George Washington, these children depicted scenes from his life as a surveyor and as a recipient of the prophecies of the Indiang who foretold of his future greatness. The closing scene rich in color and beauty was a picture of the celebration at Trenton, N.J. in honor of Washington as he made the journey to New York to become the first president. L. L. Perry, supervising principal of the 11th Division spoke on the physical fitness of children and the absolute necessity for the development of sound and healthy bodies. A representative of the Community Chest was present to explain to the parents and friends the meaning of the Chest and help them to see and realize that the unemployed people as well as the sick and needy in the city of Washington were receiving the utmost help from the Chest! Mrs. K. P. Carr, secretary of the P.T.A. presented the request of the former students to place in the building a memorial to John F. Cook, a pioneer teacher for whom the school is named. Fifteen dollars was contributed and one hundred dollars was owed. Dr. Koo Addresses Virginia State On China Students of Virginia State College were given first hand information concerning the Chinese-Japanese situation by Dr. T. T. Z. Koo, learned Chinese good-will ambassador, at the college chapel exercises on Friday. Dr. Koo, a Christian graduate of St. Johns College in China, for several years a rail-road official in China is vice-president of the World Student Christian Federation and of the World Alliance of the Y.M.C.A. He was elected by his government in cooperation with twenty-seven Christian nations, to represent the Chinese people in North and South America and is now touring this country lecturing on the causes of the conflict between the warring nations. Discussing the situation from an economic point of view, Dr. Koo plainly attributed the controversy to the desire of the Japanese government to dominate transportation, industry, and commerce in Manchuria. Competition in these fields of economic activity was set forth as the chief cause of the strained relations by the learned speaker. Before making his speech Dr. Koo requested that the students sing Negro spirituals for him and promised to play some Chinese folk songs on his flute in return. This he did along with an explanation of the folk songs of his own land. They are similar in some respects to our own. Langston Hughes, Poet Speaker at Knoxville KNOXVILLE, Tenn.—Langston Hughes, young poet novelist, and lecturer, addressed the students of Knoxville College at chapel last Wednesday morning, following his lecture at Shiloh Presbyterian Church, Tuesday night in Knoxville. Mr. Hughes talked briefly about his poems read several to the audience. I spoke of his travel experiences in various parts of the world. "The Black Soldier" was one of the most popular of the poems presented and the declaration by Mr. Hughes that in many respects he is a pacifist brought applause. Thornton A $100,000 Man For Five Years Leroy W. Thornton, manager of the Victory Life Insurance Company for the W. shington district, has been on the one hundred thousand dollar honor roll of the company for the past five years. Three of those years were spent in Washington and two in New York City. The house organ of the company says; "On the basis of production Messrs. J. E. Hubbard and L. W. Thornton rank as our most consistent representatives. For five consecutive years each of them has been members of our $100,000 club." Victory Shows Gains "The Victory Life of Illinois announces substantial increases in its 1931 paid for and amount in force. In 1930 the company paid for $4,974,621 and in 1931 paid for $5,568,262. The amount in force jumped from $14,612,888 in 1930 to $16,433,938. "The Victory Life is one of the strong Negro companies of the United States. Its home office is in Chicago, and it is the only Illinois company licensed in the state of New York. During 1931, agents qualified for the $100,000 club. "J. E. Stamps, agency director of the company, has made a special drive on conservation during 1931, to which he attributes the fine company showing. Every policy holder was interviewed once at least before his premium became due and if he started to lapse he was interviewed three more times before the policy was allowed to go off the books. Thus the company's fine conservation program enables it to make a substantial 1931 showing." St. George's Chapel Concludes 2nd Anniversary St. George's Protestant Episcopal Chapel concluded last Friday evening the second anniversary which began last Sunday. The celebration closed with an anniversary reception at 1721 1st street, northwest. Throughout the week there were various programs arranged for the anniversary.

Monday, Ladonia Williams, mother of 16 children, was committed to jail for 25 days. The woman was accused of having slashed to shreaks the entire wardrobe of Everett J. Holmes, 40 public library employee, of the 1300 block of Sixth street, northwest after Holmes spurned her affections. Holmes said he told the woman 10 days ago that he" didn't want to have anything else to do with her" and went to work. The following morning, when he returned, he said, he found two overcoats, three suits, four pairs of shoes and three hats, slashed to ribbons. The woman is said to have used a razor. Holmes secured a warrant for the Williams woman who lives in Baltimore and she was arrested by Detective Paul Jones. She pleaded guilty to the charge before Judge John P. McMahon and was fined $50. Unable to pay the fine she was given a 25-day term. Eleven of the woman's sixteen children are said to be living in Baltimore with her husband. The others are dead. Va. May Drop Poll Tax As Voting Prerequisite RICHMOND. Va. (CNS)—Re-fo voting in Virginia, was the proposal made in the House of moval of poll tax as a prerequisite Delegates by Delegate Edgar B. English last week. Mr. Enlish proposed an amendment to the State constitution which would do away with the payment of poll tax. The effect of this amendment would be to make a much larger number of the Negro population eligible to vote. Negroes 21 years of age, and over in the State total 329,000 in comparison with 970,952 whites of voting age. Disfranchisement on the ground of educational requirements has already been dealt a hard blow in the State, recent court decisions making it illegal to ask any but the stereotype questions. These decisions have resulted in a larger registration of Negro voters and it is felt that if the payment of poll taxes is eliminated, an even larger number of colored voters will show their influence at the polls. HUNDREDS PAY FINAL TRIBUTE TO MISS JERNAGIN To the accompaniment of pipe organ peals and the hushed whispers of a vast audience of admiring friends, the remains of Miss Rosabel C. Jernagin, popular daughter of the Rev. and Mrs. W. H. Jernagin, was ushered for the last time into the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church here last Saturday at 11 o'clock a.m. Death came at an early hour Wednesday, after a gallant fight over a lingering illness resulting from a nervous break down about two years ago. At the bedside were her mother and two sisters, Mrs. L. R. Adams and Mrs. Gertrude Swancy. Her father, president of the National B.Y.P.U. and Sunday School Congress, was at Louisville, Ky., attending a board meeting arranged several months ago, venturing the trip only after consultation with her physicians. Miss Jernagin was born in Meridian, Miss., July 4, 1893. She graduated from the public schools of that state. Turning west, this family took up residence in Oklahoma City, Okla., where "Rosa" (as she liked to be called) graduated from the city schools. In 1912 she was brought to the Capital by her father, who had been called to the pastorate of the Mt Carmel Church. Here she graduated from the Armstrong High School in the class of '14. Spending two years at Howard University, she returned again to Armstrong to complete a course in art in 1929. Brief Service In consonance with her wish and and the policies of her father, the funeral was marked for its brevity. Following the organ prelude, the choir sang "Abde with Me." Scripture was read by Dr. F. W. Dixon, after which prayer was offered by Dr. W. D. Jarvis. Resolutions from the church and its auxiliaries were read by Miss Elc McDowell. Dr. J. H. Randolph, pastor of Moriah Baptist Church, made announcement of resolutions and telegrams, scores of them coming from as many as seventeen States. The sermon was preached by Dr. L. G. Jordan, of Nashville Teen. Remarks were made by Rev. A. J. Tyler, Dr. J. L. S. Holloman and Rev. Augustus Lewis. Rev. Wm B. Marsh was master of ceremonies. Interment was at the New Lincoln Cemetery in the family lot. Flowers in profusion were banked high about the bier, but because of a disdain the deceased was known to have toward floral displays, and in compliance with her oft expressed wish, only a bouquet of American Beauties were placed on the casket. And these were even wrapped with her in the grave for the long sleep. Telegrams Received Telegrams Received Among telegrams and letters were those from: Rev. A. J. Payne, Baltimore; Rev. E. W.

MOTHER PRESIDES AT DAUGHTER'S GRADUATION With her mother presiding, little ten-year-old Pinckney J. Ross of 1003 Irving street, northwest, the youngest of elementary pupils to be promoted to a junior high school this term, received her promotion report along with seventy-eight other students at the closing exercises of the Garrison School held Friday at the Morgan School auditorium. The girl who was ten years old last August entered the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School. Monday. Her mother, Mrs. Ada Ross, member of the school Parent-Teacher Association, presided at the exercises. Assistant Superintendent of School, A. K. Savoy, presented the promotion reports, while Mrs. M. A. McNeil, member of the Board of Education, addressed the class. Rev. E. C. Smith, pastor of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, said the invocation and benediction. A health play entitled, "Sleeping beauty" given by the sixth B pupils also featured the program. Remarks' were given by Miss Mineola Kirkland, supervising principal. "Negro Education And Economic Development" (A radio talk by Dr. Julius Klein, Assistant Secretary of Commerce.) I keenly appreciate this opportunity to say a few words about the vital relationship that exists between the education of our colored citizens and the future economic development of the United States. Education is a subject that lies close to the heart of everyone concerned with the promotion of business. What we need, above all, is an extension of the sound, comprehensive education which shall serve as an effective basis for all the business of life. Probably at no time in the past have all our citizens—white as well as Negre—been confronted with a greater demand for precise and usable knowledge, especially in the sphere of trade and industry. So let us look at a few figures about Negro business. We find, at the outset, that the Negro market is, most emphatically, worth cultivating. Take three of the great broad groups of standard, essential commodities—groceries, first of all. It has been estimated that, every year, American Negroes spend for food the sum of $2,200,000,000. For clothing the figure seems to be about $1,400,000,000—while for shoes it is $550,000,000. Enormous sums, surely! Negroes conduct no less than 70,000 individual business enterprises in this country. We have 38 Negro banking institutions. There are more than 60 insurance companies officered by Negroes. Our Marketing Service Division at the Department of Commerce has gathered data indicating that Negroes are engaged in the manufacturing of more than 60 different commodities, and that Negro retail merchants number more than 30,000, in 179 different lines. From these facts it is apparent that the Negro is splendidly on the "up-grade," loth as a business man and as a customer. The ambitions of the race have been kindled. New vistas have been opened. The Negro has proven that, with opportunity, he can achieve success in almost any business field. And he is eager to know how to fill his place effectively in any of the diverse spheres of industry and trade. In general, he earnestly desires to be equipped to meet the demands that may be made upon him for service to the Nation and the age in which he lives. The future success of business in this country absolutely requires an increasingly high standard of intelligence in our citizens. And that means, most assuredly, a great extension of educational facilities for colored people. That will enrich the national life—and will yield a profit in dollars and cents. Education creates wants. And "satisfiable" wants form the basis of business. Dr. Willis A. Sutton, past president of the American Education Association, has put the situation very vividly, in saying: "There could be little, if any, business if it were not for education. The cave man feels no need of an electric refrigerator. But lift him up—better him—inspire in him the first feeble spark of curiosity—send him to school. When he emerges, he will want an ever-increasing number of things. As he seeks to improve himself, the marts of the business world will expand. Most costly of all things in the world is ignorance." Those thoughts of Dr. Sutton are indeed accurate and timely. The ignorant farmer uses few implements—and those that he has are probably of an antiquated type. The ignorant city dweller cares for few modern conveniences. But through education a striking transformation can be brought about. This is as true for the Negro as for any other group. Here is a fact most amply proven by statistics: The increase of wealth, productivity, and consuming capacity among Negroes has progressed in the same proportion as their educational advancement. Quite apart from the higher human considerations, education of the Negro pays by creating more wants and increasing his purchasing power. Plainly, then, it is the part of wisdom for our business men to give careful and persistent thought to the Negro as a potential market—remembering always BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL EYE, EAR, NOSE and THROAT INCIPIENT CATARACT CURED WITHOUT OPERATION Children Given Special Attention GLASSES FITTED WHEN INDICATED Osteopathic Infirmary 1826 Ninth Street, N. W. 'Phone North 10312 that the permanence and expansion of that market are in direct proportion to the educational opportunities afforded that race. In the city of Atlanta, Georgia, Negroes form 42 per cent of the total population. But I find from a recent study that they buy only 21 per cent of the merchandise sold there. Other cities show similar figures. There is a rather astonishing disproportion between Negro numbers and Negro purchases. We perceive here a business gap that can be filled, in part at least, a lack that can be supplied—and the spread of education among the race will contribute mightily to this end, to the advantage of business everywhere. So much for the relation between general education and the Negro market. Now how about the question of specialized commercial training for Negro business men—the spreading of a knowledge of effective business practice? Some exceedingly gratifying results are being achieved in this field. The recent investigations of the Commerce Department have amply proved that thousands of retail stores in this country have been run in what I may call a "shuffle-along" fashion, by whites and Negroes alike. To remedy that condition, the United States Government, the private research agencies, the organized business groups, and many individual business men, have been putting in their "best licks." Down in Louisville, Kentucky, we carried out an exhaustive "clinic" on the ills of the grocery business in all its aspects. At the close of that survey a big conference was held, to further the application of the things we had found out. The secretary of the National Negro Business League attended that conference, contributed useful suggestions, analyzed the results in relation to his own people, and then proceeded to spread the new business gospel in an educational and practical way. He created the first unit of the Colored Merchants' Association, which now comprises more than 250 grocery stores, in 10 cities, owned and operated by Negroes. Colored retailers in various parts of the country now have a much wider knowledge than formerly of such matters as store management, frequency of turn-over, cost of operation, and the many other elements that enter into profitable merchandising. I feel that a considerable part of this new business education among Negroes may fairly be attributed to the activity of the Small Business Section in the Department of Commerce, under the competent direction of Mr. James A. Jackson. The volume of business in many Negro stores has thus been increased from 5 to 50 per cent, r. the merchants learned how to keep goods moving. The banks, manufacturers, and transportation companies have profited from the dissemination of these new ideas. That is how education works out. It is satisfying in itself—and it always pays its way. More ample educational facilities for our colored fellow-citizens will prove an eminently worth-while investment, from every conceivable business as well as social point of view. Thank you very much. COLORED-WHITE BOARD SPLIT (Contnued from Page One) (Continued From Page One) school official said it was the duty of the board to provide school facilities to children wherever they are located in the District regardless of racial prejudices. It was pointed out that Mr. Gilligan has opposed every project to advance educational needs of colored pupils when a white whites appeared disgruntled because of alleged property depreciation which these whites imagined they would face if colored residents came into certain neighborhoods. This group that came to the board meeting Wednesday suggestd changes of colored children to meet their approval rather than the approval of the board. FOUR-ROOM BUILDING Several plots of land for the proposed school which will be a tour-room buildings, have been purchased by the District Commissioners and others are to be bought for the school. The Parent-Teacher Association of Garrison School commended the board for the selection of Miss V. E. Chase former principal, to principal of the new Brown Junior High School. Miss E. A. Lyons, principal of Morgan Demonstration School, was replaced on the Board of Examiners by Mrs. J. C. Smith, principal of Sumner McGruder. ENCOUNTER INCREASES ENROLMENT INCREASES Dr. Ballou presented to the board a report of enrollment in the public schools here which showed that there were more than half as many colored children in the District schools than whites. The total number of whites were 53,551 against 28,463 colored as of January 21, 1932. The report showed that there were 4,527 in Teachers College, the three high schools and the four junior high schools; 23,168 in the elementary schools and the four junior high schools; 23,168 in the elementary schools, and479 in the vocational schools. This number is an increase of 1,271 over the same date last year. Appointments were as follows: Miss H. L. Griffith, teacher Mott School; Miss F. D. Graves, teacher, Cardozo Junior High; Miss M. R. McNeill, teacher, Randall Junior High; Mrs. L. O. Wowens, teacher, Randall; C. E. Morse, teacher, Stevens; V. K. Blackburn, teacher, Burrville; M. B. S. Taylor, teacher, Syphax; Miss E. B. Smith, teacher, Birney; M. C. D. Collins, teacher, fine arts; W. L. Craig, teacher, Phelps Vocational. KEINSTATEMENTS Mrs. L. A. Henry was reinstated teacher Douglass-Simmons as of February 1. Mrs. V. D. Waddill, teacher, Mott School, was granted a leave of absence as of January 22. Miss Bernice Emma Smith, No. 6, on list of graduates, intermediate course, 1931, Miner Normal School, has changed her name to Mrs. M. D. Dorman. Mrs. R. L. Callis' resignation as teacher at Miner Teachers College was accepted by the board as well as that of the termination of P. H. Leigh as tacher at Phelps Vocational School, and R. S. Loney a teacher of fine arts, Division 10-13. FITTING TRIBUTE PAID (Contnued from Page One) by Congressman DePriest, who gave examples of diversified philanthropy of Rosenwald in Chicago, in the State of Illinois and throughout America. DePriest stated that Rosenwald believed "that all men are born equal to have equal opportunity for education." Dr. Johnson declared "Mr. Rosenwald's gifts of money to Negro education were the material outflowing of a generous heart, simply and deeply interested in Negro welfare." Everyone who came in contact with him personally knew that he was just as willing to invest his time and energy as he was to invest his money and we have learned long ago to add to our gratefulness for his gifts a genuine feeling of affections for his earnest and continuous interest in every phase of Negro life and welfare. Like Unto Lincoln "Insofar as he turned the hearts of Southern white men in public life to have increasing concern for the Negro, insofar as he turned the heart of Negro with gratitude and increasing confidence toward the public life, he has carried forward the work of Lincoln, sharing his purpose and spirit. In coming years, the name of Rosenwald will be remembered by colored and white people along with the name of Lincoln." Dr. Johnson also paid tribute to the honest business methods of Rosenwald. Letters from Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of the Crisis, and Dr. Robert Moton, president of Tuskegee Institute, were read by Rev. R. W. Brooks. Miss Marie L. Taylor, Howard University senior, recited a poem from the works of Paul Lawrence Dunbar. The invocation was said by Rev. W. H. Thomas, and the benediction by Rev. George Bullock. Rev. W. H. Jernagin read Mr. Rosenwald's favorite psalm, while the double quartet from Howard University rendered several musical selections. Members of the executive committee in charge of the exercise were Bishop Jones, chairman; Rev. Brooks, and Rev. H. B. Taylor.

THE CHESAPEAKE AND POTOMAC TELEPHONE COMPANY (Call System) 725 Thirteenth Street N. W. MEtropolitan 9900 MARK SULLIVAN WRITES ON NEGRO INFLUENCE Speaking of Politics In Appointments to Supreme Court and Parker Case (CNS)—That politics is playing an ever increasing part in the selection of Supreme Court Justices was the opinion recently expressed by Mark Sullivan, prominent journalist here. Mr. Sullivan, who is considered to be a close associates of President Hoover, credits the failure to confirm Judge John J. Parker in a large measure to the active campaign waged by the N.A.A.C.P. His statement is significant as indicating the feeling of many white politicians toward the strength shown by the national association in this fight, if not as well giving some indication of the opinions of those close to the President. The part of Mr. Sullivan's article discussing the N.A.A.C.P. is as follows: "Judge Parker, some years ago, when not on the bench, had made an off-hand statement about organized participation of Negroes as such in politics—a statement to which the Negroes themselves in that Southern community would have subscribed. No Southern Negro, on his own initiative, would have raised any objection to Judge Parker. But an organization with headquarters in New York, composed partly of whites and partly of Negroes, called the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, inspired pressure on Senators to vote against confirming Judge Parker. Of the 49 Senators who voted against Judge Parker, between seven and ten were influenced by concern for the Negro voters in their States. "The episode did not end there. It had echoes which tend to increase the disposition of Senators to act in deference to political pressure. When Senators who had voted to confirm Judge Parker came up for re-election, organized labor and organized Negroes made war on them. There is not a doubt that the two combined accounted for the defeat of Senator McCulloh in Ohio. When Grundy, of Pennsylvania was up for renomination, the Negro organization inspired meetings of Negroes in Philadelphia and exulted over their parts in defeating Grundy. As recently as last November when Senator Baird of New Jersey came up for election as Governor of that State, New Jersey saw a strange thing, meetings in Negro churches to support a Democrat, the opponent of Baird. "the growth of this sort of thing, the increasing tendency of the Senate to act on judicial appointments under political pressure, is explained in large part by a recent development. Until a few years ago the votes in the Senate on judicial appointments were in executive sessions; that is, with the doors closed and no record given out. Under that condition Senators used to have as much pride in confirming, as much freedom from political considerations or factional pressure as Presidents in appointing. A few years ago, however, the Senate made these ses- sions open and open doors allowed the political pressure to come in. There need not be much doubt that had the vote on Judge Parker taken place behind closed doors he would have been confirmed." The Rise of Jacques Renard From Kiev to Bagdad on the Subway That orchestra music you hear during the Camel Quarter Hour Program over the Columbia Broadcasting System at 7:45 p.m. eastern daylight saving time every night except Sunday is inspired by the baton of Jacques Renard. It is by the merest chance that Renard is directing a dance orchestra and not accepting the plaudits of the public from the concert stage. As a boy in Chelsea, a suburb of Boston, he was known as a violin virtuoso. Karl Muck, then director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, heard young Renard and praised him. But fate had other plans for the boy. Renard was born in Kiev, Russia, a city which witnessed the birth of several of the world's most renowned violinists. His father, a Cossack in the service of the Czar, left Russia when Jacques was very young. The family settled in the Boston Ghato and Renard took up the study of the violin. Jus: at the time when he was on the verge of entering upon a career as a concert violinist, Renard came under a new influence. Meyer Davis, famous dance orchestra manager, been telling him of the rewards in his field. Renard finally compromised with his musical aspirations by accepting the baton of a Boston dance orchestra. Thus ten years ago, Renard started his climb in the dance orchestra field. He soon organized his own orchestra and began developing his own ideas about dance music. Melody, always melody, was his themes and he did not lose it though he passed through storms of dance music fads. Always his orchestrations followed the melodic themes created by the composer, simply and as beautifully as possible, strong string section with a background of low register clarinets or a saxophone choir carried the main burden with the muffled drum pounding an insistent, rhythmic beat. Renard's violin took the solo parts, with the remainder of the violin section playing pizzicat figures around its theme. Boston liked his music and Renard moved from place to place, always drawing crowds. Finally he opened his club, conducted it for a few years, then started a beautiful dine and dance palace, Renard's Mayfair. Here the orchestra attracted the attention of the Columbia Broadcasting System and gained a place as a sustaining feature on the network. When the sponsors of the new Came! program sought an orchestra that could play melodies beautifully, not forgetting the essential dance rhythm, Renard's group fitted the specifications. Renard moved on to New York and nationwide fame. Renard ranks with Paul Whitman as one of the largest orchestra directors. Weighing more than 300 pounds it is a common occurrence for him to gain or lose as much as 60 pounds a month. But the music is in the giant body and he drills it into his organization and makes it sing through his violin. Music must be, after all, musical, according to Renard's way of thinking. COLORED RAILWAY MAIL CLERKS SHOW HIGH EFFICIENCY Sidney M. Jackson, Washington Man, is National Secretary of P.A. (The Associated Negro Press) (Editor's Note: This is the first of a series of articles to be released exclusively through the Associated Negro Press, concerning this highly interesting and systematized branch of work, and Mr. Anderson, staff writer, will relate next week some incidents connected with the fascinating problem of sending letters to all parts of the world—which means much more than dropping them in a mail box; also the parts played by Negroes in this service.) According to the results of investigations made here, it is shown that colored railway mail clerks who handle the responsible task of helping to distribute Uncle Sam's mails in various Railway Post Offices throughout the United States show an extremely high efficiency rating. There are approximately 14,000 colored men and women in the U.S. mail service as a whole, representing a yearly average of $40,-000,000 in salaries which make them a substantial factor in the economic existence of the country. Representing such an income they are well capable of exerting an influence upon the financial condition of the group in different sections of the country in which they live. A goodly number are in the Railway Mail Service. Civil Service To college graduates who are finding themselves faced with the prospects of jobs with lesser remuneration than those for which they are trained the Railway Mail Service, with its maximum of Post Office Department salaries is becoming a very attractive field. But due to Civil Service regulations which govern entrance into this work there is a difficulty in getting into the Service, other than through the regular examinations. Many substantial contributions were made to national life, by Negroes during the past year, and the postal service, of the Negro group, have played their part in these contributions. With their own national organization, the National Alliance of Postal Employees, endorsed by high postal officials who attend their national conventions each year, the group is making active contribution towards the standardization of the branch of service which is beginning more and more to recognize the Negro as a potent factor. Washington Represented National officers of the Postal Alliance represent some of the best brains in the race, and incidentally hold some of the most responsible positions on the road. Roy O. Wilhoite, of St. Louis, national president, is a clerk in the St. Louis and Omaha R.P.O. one of the heavy western trunk lines, which handles a heavy bulk of coast bound mails; Sidney M. Jackson, national secretary, Wash- THE TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1932 VICE PRESIDENT DIES M. B. G. G. GREENLY, vice-president of the Dollar Dry Cleaning Company dies. ington, D.C., is a clerk-in-charge in the Washington and Florence (S.C.) R.P.O., on the finest and fastest train running southward, the "Havana Special." In this same R.P.O. are several other Negro clerks-in-charge, Richard A. Lee, and Garfield Chapman, Mr. Chapman, has served as a district president of the Alliance; Mr. Jackson has a crew in which also run several white clerks. There are also several second clerks, whose responsibilities rank next to those of the clerk-in-charge. This line is pointed out mainly because it is one of the heaviest mail lines in the service, and also the longest run in the service, being well over 400 miles in distance of clerk runs. At Philadelphia, Harold L. Pilgrim, national vice-president of the Alliance, is also head of the Mutual Post Office Association; Joseph B. Brown, jr., at St. Louis editor of the official Postal Alliance organ, is also a clerk, as well as being a writer for A.N.P. William J. Arnold, Atlanta, Ga., is a district president, and a clerk-in-charge in the Atlanta and Jacksonville R.P.O., another heavy line, which is a through trunk from Chicago and Cincinnati to Florida. There are countless other instances of colored men who are serving the United States in responsible R.M.S. positions. South Well Represented The South, despite the ideas of Jim-Crowism, shows a larger number of colored R.P.I. clerks, in proportion to other sections of the country. Several lines in the south have a heavy ratio of colored men. The Wilmington (N.C.) and Augusta (Ga.) R.P.O. has ten clerks-in-charge, and nine of them are colored, with the majority of the second clerks being colored also. The Charlotte (N.C.) and Augusta R.P.O. also has a higher proportion of colored clerks-in-charge and second clerks than white. As a matter of fact there are only two white clerks on this line, which hauls a heavier number of passengers than many through lines in the south, and is the heaviest passenger traffic line in the south other than main lines. Georgia has more colored R.P.O. clerks than any other state in the south. Alabama, Tennessee, Ohio and North Carolina, along with South Carolina all have their numbers of colored railway postal clerks. There are still some lines which are considering "non-colored" lines, in that they have no Negro clerks assigned to them, and the policy of segregation is beginning to be felt. For instance, the Goldsboro (N.C.) and Greensboro (N.C.) R.P.O., which has only three colored clerks now, where there were at one time eight or ten, and only two colored clerks-in-charge. Two of these men are veterans of the Service, John H. Lewis, who lives at Greensboro, and W. T. Wallace, of the same city. Both have been in the Service for periods exceeding twenty-odd years, and have spent practically all of that time in the same R.P.O. Chicago has over 3,500 colored postal employees, New York City has near 2,000, Philadelphia 1,500, and other northern cities show a similar ratio, without any substantial decrease in the number of employees yearly, which indicates that the service of the colored clerks must be efficient, or else they would be dispensed with. Negro Farmers Are Threatened in Tenn. Humboldt, Tenn.-Bands of night riders are terrorizing Negro tenant farmers in the Fruitland and Edison communities, near here, officials disclosed today. Sheriff Bradshaw said the riders had posted warnings on the homes of the tenant farmers that they "must leave the community in ten days."

One man has been arrested under an old night-raiding statute.

The program chairman for the month and the speaker of the day was Mr. J. E. Hall, Jr., secretary-treasurer of the association and district manager for the Southern Aid Society. Mr. Hall read and reviewed a copy of the speech recently delivered over the radio by the president of the Pem Mutual Life Insurance Company. This proved to be a thoroughly interesting document, which had to do largely with safe and profitable investments of the funds of insurance companies, to which subject all insurance companies and all other large corporations are giving a great deal of study. It was brought out that notwithstanding the much discussed depression, the closing of banks and the disastrous condition of many other businesses, life insurance continued to hold its place in the first rank of organizations which scrutinize carefully all stocks and bonds before investing in them. Due to the length of the article there was not sufficient time left to discuss properly the paper in all its phases. The following members were present: Messrs, Thornton, Hall, Cunningham, Bradshaw, Pope, Fearing, and Stevenson.

Ford, Negro war veteran of Raleigh, received $9,142.50 in cold cash at the local post-office upon presentation of his check from the Federal Government for war risk insurance.

Greenly, vice-president of the Dollar Dry Cleaning Company on Seventh street, northwest, Washington's business circles sustained a loss. Mr. Greenly was connected with the company a little more than three years. He entered the services of the firm with little knowledge of the business and rapidly rose, step by step, to the place where he occupied the vice-president's chair at the time of his death. Leon Williams, owner of the plant, stated that the firm has not selected a successor to Mr. Greenly, and added that he is experiencing some difficulty in getting a pension properly qualified to assume the duties of vice-president. While the promotion of some employee may fill the vacancy, yet it is not improbable that an outsider may be brought in to assume the semi-management, it was learned today.

OPEN EVENINGS 一 1 Wills Respite From Death After Governor's Visit RALEIGH, N.C., (CNS)—A personal visit to prison by Governor O. Max Gardner, resulted in a 60-day respite from sentence of death for Ernest Cherring, 22-year-old colored youth, twice convicted of murder and scheduled to be executed last week. Cherring, whose brother Chevis, has already paid the supreme penalty for the murder of an aged postmaster at Kerr, North Carolina, was determined in his declaration of innocence. His brother just before his death had signed a dying declaration to the effect that Ernest had nothing to do with the crime. The Governor's action came at the last moment last Thursday, after he had at first refused to intervene in Cherring's execution early Friday morning. Lawyers appointed by the court to defend the man, and several representative colored citizens, led by Lieutenant Lawrence Oxley, and L. B. Caphehart, grandmaster of the Negro Masons of the State, finally persuaded the North Carolina executive to visit Cherring in prison. It was the first visit paid a prisoner in jail made by a Carolina Governor since 1929.

THE OWLS FORMAL By Leonard Richards I really should be able to write the nicest, very best story of that gay gorgeous and grand formal dance that was presented Friday night by the Owls. The beautiful ballroom of the Masonic was filled to more than its capacity. The hall was sparkling with beautiful gowns as couples swayed to the strains of music by the Blue Bird Orchestra. Everyone, and everyone it seems was there, is still talking of their congenial host, The Owls. After the dance officers and members and their selected guests went over to the Crystal Caverns and made whooppee until the wee hours of the morn. When all of us have grown old, when youth's bright day and all have fled and sad eyed age keeps company with all of us who were there to gather Friday evening, we'll look back on our younger davs, and will sigh and think of the Owls formal of 1932.

James, pastor, in Roanoke, Va. The depression in church circles is perhaps no less depressing than in business circles and other walks of life now suffering from the effects of the unemployment situation; but down in Virginia there is at least one church and minister who claim a larger, fuller, a more interesting, more useful and a happier life than the life which they experienced in the days of prosperity. The church already well organized, since the depression has revised and improved its system of operation in such a manner as to make possible the supply of the present needs. The members of the church who still hold jobs and positions are taught to share their earnings with those who are out of work and in need. They have been trained to bring regularly to the church articles of food and gifts of money and clothing for the poor, and when these supplies run low in the pantry or store room at the church where they are kept, a special day is designated by the pastor to be observed as Personal Gift Sunday and on that day every individual who attends church whether member or friend is requested to make an offering for the poor. If not in food, in cash. In addition to this plan, the church holds what is known by them as Mid-week Community Service following their regular Wednesday evening prayer service from nine until ten o'clock. This one hour service is broadcast from the church over radio station WRBX. The plans for helping the poor and the less fortunate are announced over the air and appeals to the public are made for help of food, coal and clothing, etc., including appeals, for jobs. All money raised at these services which are usually well attended by both white and colored people is used to relieve the needs of those who are out of employment and have no wa of providing for themselves. the Advertisements in TRIBUNE (1) THEY FEATURE ONLY The Highest Quality of Merchandise (2) THEY FEATURE ONLY The Wares of Merchants Who Want Your Patronage (3) THEY FEATURE ONLY Guaranteed Products!

GREENSBORO, N.C. (Too late for last week.) There was much enthusiasm in evidence at the informal dance given by the North Carolina Mutual folk in the Greensboro district Saturday evening at Yates Hall, in honor of their visiting North Carolina Mutual friends from the eastern Charlotte District. The music was good and the hosts had gathered together such a congenial bunch to meet their honor guests. I say "honor guests" because this band of hard workers were on a tour to the home office in Durham as the guests of the western Charlotte district, over whom they had won in a contest for business last year. Greensboro was greatly pleased to have this successful group of business men and women stop over awhile and took this method of so expressing it.

Dixon, founder and international president of the Pocket Testament League, who spoke on the "Value and Purpose of Pocket Testament Leagues," last Wednesday, at the regular chapel exercise. The speaker said that the work of the Pocket Testament League was based on two verses, "Holdin' fast the faithful word," and "Holding Forth the Word of Life." She further stated that the movement was simply a plan to unite the people of any age and of any Nationality, whether Christians or not, who will agree to make a habit of dong two things—to read at least one chapter of the Bible each day; and to carry a Bible, or new testament on their persons, wherever they go. The purpose of the plan is: for those who are Christians, that they may make the Bible a constant daily companion, always at hand to be read, and especially to be used in winning others to Christ; and for those who are not yet Christians, that they may become acquainted with God's own revelation of himself and his plan of salvation for this life and for the next, and may be led to accept Christ. on "Twelve Million Negroes in Important Market", and lecture the students of the University Rochester on "Substituting Economics for Emotions in Race Relations".

May we this passage in our Bibles: "other hands." It is often evident and many times have we been cognizant of the fact that the Negro is much too ignorant of himself and his achievements. We do not feel the joy of accomplishment as we should, for we are not fully aware of our accomplishments. The history we study in school were written by white people; too often by those antagonistic to the race. Therefore, everything we read is colored up or down, according to the author's prejudices. The result is that we go through school studying histories of everybody and everything except ourselves and our accomplishments. It helps to give one that feeling of inferiority too often in evidence with even our young people. Ours is a noble heritage, and when we fully realize the accomplishment of the race from Egypt, through Africa down to America, we have much for which to be proud and enough to inspire us to more noble accomplishments. And the Negro in America has many things to his credit to make him feel proud of his forebears. In substantiation of this assumption the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History has set aside the week beginning Sunday, February 7, as Negro History Week, during which the people of the United States—white and colored—are invited to reflect on Negroes who have made history in worthwhile endeavor. A pamphlet issued by the association, and from which we quote, tells "What the Negro Has to Celebrate": Negroes participated in the discovery and exploration of America; they have made a large contribution to its development; and as soldiers they have acquitted themselves with honor in all American wars. Negroes served with the Colonial forces on land and sea. In the struggle for the rights of man, Crispus Attucks fell in the Boston Massacre in 1770 . . . the first to sacrifice his life for the independence of this country. Peter Salem weakened the ranks of the British by killing Major Pitcairn at Bunker Hill in 1775. Salem Poor showed such valor in his battle at Charlestown that fourteen fair-minded officers reported his heroism to Congress. Austin Dabney distinguished himself by exploits of valor in helping to vanquish the Tories in Georgia . . . On the battlefield with Greene and Washington more than 3,000 other soldiers of African blood lived up to this brilliant record during that conflict with Great Britain. Negro soldiers stood out with equal valor in the War in 1812, under Perry and McDonough on sea and with Andrew Jackson on land at New Orleans. In the Civil War the Negroes furnished 178,000 soldiers to strike boldly at such points as Port Hudson, Fort Fisher, and Fort Wagner, and thus helped to destroy the morals of the enemies of freedom. The fighting of the Negro at Santiago de Cuba contributed decisively to the defeat of the Colonial exploitation of Spain. In the punitive expedition to Mexico in 1916 Negro soldiers emerged as the heroes of Carizal. In the World War Negroes again demonstrated their courage and bravery in the defense of the ideals of this country. May we add to our knowledge of ourselves during the forthcoming week which shall be devoted to Negro History. The Negro has made his contribution to the world's civilization and to America's progress. May we find the real meaning of this passage in our Bibles: "Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hands."

The need for an elective school board stood out in bold relief, Wednesday, at the meeting of the Board of Education at the Franklin building when a number of white people protested the purchase of ground for a colored school on Rock Creek Church Road near Allison street, northeast. It also showed the evil ever present in a dual system which the fair capital of the most civilized nation of the globe can boast. Gilligan, a member of the Board of Education, who has always shown the spirit of the Ku Klux Klan toward the Negro showed his cloven foot at this meeting, definitely siding with race prejudice protesters of the necessity for school facilities for more than a hundred colored children. Why should these poor, defenseless children be inconvenienced because of race hating, people of the District cooperated with by a member of the Board of Education? A man or woman so dominated with race prejudice as Gilligan demonstrates, has no place on any Board of Education, and especially not on the honorable board of the District of Columbia. Mr. Gilligan prominently demonstrated his race antipathy in the notorious Bloomingdale Citizens' Association's demonstrations against Negroes purchasing homes in that section of northeast Washington. He was not only a factor in leading these demonstrations, but acted as the attorney in the court cases resulting, from these demonstrations and attempted evictions. Every organization of civic associations and others should join in a demand for his resignation. He should never have been appointed in the first place, and his appointment only shows what influence the Klan spirit has here. Mr. Gilligan has prominently brought the race issue into the location of this public school, and the Negroes of the District should resent to the uttermost of their ability. It is now an issue and must not be settled until settled right. The Board of Education of the District of Columbia should be too broad, too honorable, and just too full of the spirit of right and equity to permit a race prejudiced member to disrupt its honorable proceedings and disgrace it in the eyes of the world. WEEK-END MOSIACS By AlgernonB. Jackson, M.D. {For The Associated Negro Press} NIGHT LIFE AND NEGROES Life has always been an interesting experience to me and I have never turned my back upon its many thrills. I have gone forth in quest of the unusual, the bizzarre and even the revolting things in order to know all of life that I could possibly learn. So, of course, I have been in many night clubs in various cities throughout the land, from the lowest to the still lower. I say this because I have never seen anything exalting or clifying in any of them whether they are ablaze with gilded fanaronade or reeking with the atench of over-worked nudisors. To me it has always seemed a pity to see poor Negroes who can in no way afford the outrageous expenses of such brothels turn to them for a form of amusement which is not only debasing and degrading but unhealthy as well.

Any Negro with an ounce of pride will resent, I am sure, that his neighborhood is made the slumming rendezvous for idle, vulgar whites. Negro neighborhoods at best are not any too attractive, clean and quiet because of the riffraff of our own race who infest and disgrace them.

MITCHELL SOMETHING FOR NOTHING!. Recently our Press carried the account of a preacher who lost his savings through the operation of a "confidence" game. For that matter, we can pick up the pappers almost every week and read of some similar event, though the victims are not all preachers. No member of our group can afford the loss of their savings during these times. The consequences are too serious. A life might be sacrificed; lingering sickness brought on; a small business swept away; the loss of an opportunity to commence a business; the plans for the youngster's education thwarted or any one of an unlimited number of tragedies might occur when one has been suddenly d prived of their life's savings. This writer knows something about the methods used in most of the usual "confidence" games and has also come in direct contact with thousands of those who have made a living through the operation of such and all agree that if it were not for the greed to get matter, we can pick up the papers "something for nothing" there would be no "confidence" games and no losses. If a salesman should come to your door trying to sell seeds that are guaranteed to produce flowers in full bloom in the morning after the seeds are planted, you would laugh at him and shut the door in his face, and rightly so, for you know that nature does not produce fy their immoral vanity. Such a program is unhealthy socially, physically and economically and my prayer is that decent thinking Negroes will arise in all their might and resent the turning of their neighborhoods into slumming resorts for evil minded, unprincipled whites. SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT There appears in the current issue of the Cosmopolitan Magazine an article head—"Is Gandhi Sincere?" by Katherine Mayo. The Washington Star of last week contained a news article of the same nature, extolling the virtue of a young American widow who has gone to England to publish a book dealing with this question. She bases her conclusions on a trip she made to India when she was a girl of fifteen, and on certain incursions into that country since that time. She is wise indeed to go to England to publish this book. She will make much more money by spreading her propaganda there than she would in any other country. The Caucasian mind has strange ways of arriving at a given point.—Sincerity seems a strange issue to be raised by a race that has covered its spear points of conquests with Bibles; and its aggressiveness and greediness with friendly smiles and tokens of brotherly love. How sincere has been the program of any great white figure of history in the sense that is involved here—the sense of being entirely divorced from personal renown and love. How sincere was George Washington? How sincere Alexander? How sincere any great figure of world progress? How many men have ever been known to refuse the laurel wreath, tendered by admiring countrymen? And indeed, how sincere is England in her attitude towards India—in any sense of the word? Is England holding onto India for dear life because she is trying to shelter, protect, and uplift a fallen people? Is this the real reason? Would England continue to cling so tightly if India would become a source of expense to her instead of a source of Revenue? Would England, whose natural territory is about the size of one of our smaller states, continue her Indian policy if she could maintain herself in all her pomp and glory without the assistance of India? Why has England so suddenly popped Mahatma Gandhi in jail—so soon after she has been force off the gold standard? Is there not much gold, jewels, and natural wealth in India? Is not the richest man in all the world a citizen of India? Ah! Then this talk of sincerity! What humbug! Suppose America, with all her present wealth and rich resources were possessed by an ancient, gentle and kindly race of people; childish and naive—in the light of the present harsh, aggressive spirit of the world—and suppose the present conditions of crime, child labor, and widespread illiteracy obtained. How long should it be before a land grabbing, property acquiring, greedy Western nation should fall upon us, flaunting a Bible, and singing a song of brotherly love, to "uplift" us. They would convince us how stupid we were for permitting such conditions to be, ignoring their own evil conditions at home. They erect a school for the illiterate mountain-folk and the chief subject taught would be how nferior we were and how great they were. They would irrigate the desert and let us raise crops, the best of which they would take for themselves. Our goings in and coming out would be questioned by the authorities. Our people would be segregated. And for these grand and glorious privi- A STRANGE QUESTION B. Flightless bird THE TRIEUNE, FRIDAY, FEBUARY 5, 1932 in such a manner. Neither does the forces of nature produce material wealth in such a manner. The seed has to be planted in a certain kind of soil and at a certain time. It has to be carefully cultivated and tended. Likewise, to grow material wealth, the seed (the dollar) has to be invested at a certain time and in a certain manner and even more carefully watched in order to bring forth a profitable crop—dividends. There is no formula, no set rules, printed or otherwise, that will produce "something for nothing" over night. Regardless of the form that the plan or scheme might be presented in, if the operators hold out a lure of an unreasonable amount of "profit" in a short space of time and all that is required is "your money" or "your signature" beware of all such. Some might say, "Well, the operators of such schemes are getting something for nothing!" But are they? No, and a thousand times no. I've seen thousand of such operators and they've all paid and paid. The toll that they eventually pay make them realize more than any others that it is impossible to get "something for nothing." All that any one can get from life is life. If you're enjoying good health, a nice home, contented family life and a little "nest egg" set aside, don't sacrifice it through the lure of "something for nothing." leges we would be taxed to the utmost and robbed of our free womanhood and manhood, entirely strange, foreign, and bewildering ways being forced upon us. We would learn how to be "discreet"—morally clean on the highways and as foul as you please on the byways. All men should have the right to work out, on the soil that providence has given him as his own his own Idea of Life; and without any interference from self appointed overlords. In the Indian situation dracantionism is involved as much as any other issue, and we as Negroes should keep our minds uninfluenced by any propaganda of the sort being spread. Our white brother is full of guile He knows that there is more than one way to "skin a cat." Sincerity is a truly strange question to be raised by a race with such an history. OUR MAIL SCHOOL PROGRESS INTEREST SHOWN BY PARENT Editor Tribune I am glad to see the parents putting their views before the public. I read the letter last week concerning the matter at Armstrong. Suppose the principal does take away the books before time: that is no reason why the work should stop; he does not do the teaching. Should not the teachers be so full of the subject that they could work without books? Also there are plenty of extra-curricular studies that can keep children studying much to their benefit. Then too, I feel that a child's recor' should not be so long neglected that he has to make it up in the last few weeks. I think there is a system in our schools that is doing harm to all the children. That is the honor system. A few children who are born with memories good enough to memorize the academic matter are paraded before the student body and called the honor pupils. The less fortunate ones (so they feel) are led to believe that academic matter is all that counts, while the honored ones feel that they have all that is necessary to make a mark in the world. But when they seek jobs they find that different qualities are necessary to win. A bank employer, for instance, does not care how many Latin verbs his clerk can conjugate or how many history dates he can recite if he cannot keep the Christmas savings accounts of his patrons correct. Let our schools put more time on teaching our girls and boys how to attain economic independence; how to be thorough in all that they do; how to be hustlers, honest, thrifty and self reliant. IT CAN BE DONE This question has often been asked would this race of ours fail. If they were to go in business upon a larger scale. In view of the fact there're some in our group who really could Come together and open up because it certainly would Be a credit to this race of ours, also themselves If they would start in now and stock their showcases and shelves With the goods to give employment to our sons and daughters Which would enable them to earn some nickels, dimes and quarters Our ancestors laid the foundation by paving the way. And didn't have half of the chance that we're enjoying today. "Wrong-Horse Harry" Again By Wm. Pickens (For The Associated Negro Press) Harry L. Stimson grabbed the tarred end of the stick in that Manchurian mess again,—I mean from the standpoint of successful statesmanship, not from the standpoint of moral idealism. He has given the wily British all the advantage of us in Japanese sentiment. Instead of keeping open door for America in Manchuria, he has put the Japanese in position to shut doors in our face, in every "legal" way. Just as individuals can technically "obey the law," while committing nearly every crime in the list, so can the Japanese shut Americans out of many opportunities, while preserving the outward allegiance to any treaties, laws and laws cannot gain cordiality and favor for us. The sentiment of a people must be for us or against us, and that will determine what we will get out of them.—The British are a shrewd lot: they waited until we gave voice to our in-born anti-Japanese sentiment and bias, and they immediately posed and showed a "noble" front for the Japanese. We should have waited until we found out what England and France were inclined to do in the same case. We need not follow their example, but if we knew what they would do, we could have taken our own position more diplomatically and in more diplomatic language, and perhaps to better effect, even if we were opposed to the view of the other great signatories to the Kellogg Pact. If we were going to disagree with the other, there would have been some advantage in disagreeing with them. After they had spoken or made their attitudes known,—for then we would have appeared brave and strong and daring, at least. As it is now, it will appear to Japanese, Chinese, and even to many of our own people and to the rest of the world, that the English have given us the air, instead of our giving it to them. It will be believed that we were counting on British support on "Anglo-Saxon solidarity," and that we have been disappointed and let down. The effect will be against us, and will lessen the influence of our pronouncement. The newspaper correspondents who wrote the instructive and amusing book called "Washington Merry-Go-Round," have named Stimson "Wrong-Horse Harry." because he so often and so fatally picks the "loser" in international diplomacy: in several recent revolutions in South America, he backed the loser,—taking a position against the "rebels," declaring embargoes on sales of arms to them, and those "rebels" turned out to be backed by the greater part of their own people, threw out the "governments" which we had supported and left us out in the cold. Such governments, coming into power against our open opposition, are not likely to maintain the "open door" for us in South American trade. We did the same thing in Central America and in Haiti. We were against the real choice of the people for the presidency of Haiti, and as soon as the people got a right to vote without the force of American marine bayonets, they elected a man of their own choice. "Wrong-Horse Harry" is a good fellow, a man of brains and courage, but a darned poor diplomatist, when he runs up against a shrewd mixture of English and Japanese. —The very fact that we are a dominant power will cause others, especially those who owe us money, to "calescee" against us. But if it comes down to the scratch, Harry Old Boy, they will find that we can get together over here and make ourselves felt. The foreigner also opens up in our locality And make it a success through our instrumentality. If they can do so without being pressed against the wall, The Then there's no reason why we cannot do the same at all. It is true we have a few places that's scattered here and there. But that is not sufficient because it does not compare With our population, so let us start without delay Because the door of opportunity is closing every day Into our faces and leaving us standing on the outside So let us not stand idly by as though our hands are tied. But instead start in right now and carry it right on. To To the road of success and after we have gone. Our children will take it up and be able to give it to theirs when they're through so that it may always live. Homely Philosophy RE-MAKE YOUR WORLD By Gorgia D. Johnson If you are born into a world of prescription and caged limitations, gird your loins, look about you, set your teeth and re-make your world. Strong brave men in days gone by, upset traditions and established new regimes—why not you?

BURROUGHS The depression has not arrived yet It is coming. It will be the greatest social and economic drama of the ages. This sinful world needs it and a just God who "Moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform," is setting the stage for it. This depression racket is only the prologue, but wait, the real play will be on, and everybody will be in it. We call the unequal distribution of creature comforts depression. We call enforced idleness depression. These physical conditions are the direct result of man's selfishness, man's inhumanity to man and mental and physical laziness. These is no lack of creature comforts in the world. God has abundantly provided enough for every creature and every living thing for all the ages. He has enough creature comforts in the world for everybody. Man set up social and economic boycots. Man built walls of prejudice to shut men of certain races and climbs out. Certain races have planned to hog the earth and the fullness thereof. God is staging a depression to keep them from doing it. The real drama is from on yet. When it comes the rich and the poor will play leading parts together. Together, mind you. They have been playing a part, but now they will be playing together before the curtain falls on this world drama. God will direct the performance. When the real depression comes it is going to press the devil out of mean and vile men and it is going to press sympathy, justice, and helpful co-operation out of men who stand in places of opportunity. The depression is not on yet. It is on our lips and in our lives. It has not struck our senses nor our souls. You wait until this prologue of racketeering is over! You wait until God smacks us in the eyes like Jesus did that blind man! Then will we see cearly—not men as white nor black nor brown, but we will see every man as a man. In the prologue we still draw the color line in things economic. In the real play God is going to wipe out all lines. Human brotherhood is going to be a reality in this world in spite of the world, the flesh and the devil. When the depression comes it is going to press us until we put material things in their rightful place and place the right value upon them and acknowledge the dignity of human personalities. Have you seen, the army of hopeless men, women and children crowded into every neglected street in every great city in the Christian nation? Look at them. Do you realize that man's injustice to man pressed the majority of them there? God is going to press the man who pressed them. Then will the depression be on. The depression is going to be a spiritual and moral revolution. God is going to press us until we allow every man a fair chance to work out his own salvation. Have you seen the millions of hovels in which human beings are forced to live like cattle? Many of these millions are the victims of gross economic injustice. Have you seen the millions of men who are boxed off from other men because they omitted the ungodly crime of not having been born white? When the depression is on we will stop allowing human beings to go to waste. The real depression will force visionary people out of the way and create a demand for people of vision. When the depression is on, we will learn to work for group advancement rather than for individual opulence. You wonder why the depression, Better, ask—why not depression. It is the only way out and the only way up. When God gets through pressing the devil out of us we will repent in sackcloth and ashes for our beatsly and unbrotherly crime and against members of the human race in every nation and race, and in every cline and country. We will purge our souls with wormwood and clear our minds with actenue. The fit will survive. Then, and not until then, we will learn that a just God has a plan for the human race and His plan is for the whole race. Then, and not until then, will we learn that poverty is not a virtue and wealth is not a rock in a weary land. When the depression really comes, we will get the kind of sight that makes us see the things that endure and we will get the kind of heart that makes us love the things that abide. A Christian nation that is far mad is an abomination in the sight of an immutable God. "Back to the rock," commands the God of the nation. Why the world-wide depression, it is coming because we are not on the right track in race attitude and human relationships and we know it, but we are too plain mean, unjust and ungodly to right about face. We are spending our time trying to analyze that which is written so plainly that the proverbial way-faring man can understand it. We are offering opiates and subterfuges for truth and justice. We are feeding men's bodies and starving their souls. We are putting old cothes on their backs and thereby breaking their back-bones—their morale—their respect. We are working for men because we are too unjust to work with them. Color is one and character is our BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL KELLY MILLER SAYS: KELLY MILLER SAYS: DR. DUBOIS ON THE NON-PARTIZAN CONFERENCE The current issue of the Crisis gives an admirable account of the recent Non-Partizan Conference and expresses satisfaction with its findings, save the economic plank, which it stigmatizes with ridicule and sarcasm which the editor usually relies upon as an effective weapon. I do not in any mood wish to enter into controversy with the Crisis or its aimable, or perhaps, I had rather say, its estimable editor. My main purpose is to supply certain omitted facts which Dr. DuBois unaccountably leaves out of his statement of what actually took place between us. I was chairman of the Committee on Resolutions. It was the plan of the Conference to have each discussion group prepare to resume to be submitted to the Committee. As soon as I could reach Dr. DuBois who read an admirable paper on the subject, I requested him to prepare a draft touching economics. This he readily agreed to do provided I would furnish him a stenographer. While the exercises were in process, I sought out a stenographer and looked around for Dr. DuBois immediately after the meeting was over, but he had left the platform and the room, and returned, I presume, to New York. The next morning I received a telegram offering to dispatch the draft by wire. I did not deem a reply necessary as the need for all possible dispatch was obvious. The draft forwarded by mail reached my hands too late for insertion in the findings. I thereupon wrote Dr. DuBois to this effect. The Doctor is also in error when he says that I asked him if he had prepared an economic plank. I requested him to prepare such a plank. The same procedure had been followed with all the other groups. So much for the recital of fact. Dr. DuBois parades in parallel columns the economic plank which is adopted by the Conference and the one proposed by himself. He is evidently greatly pleased with his own handwork as contrasted with the "flapdoddle" which expressed the aggregated judgement of the Conference. On this score there is no ground for the quarrel; for there must be no disputing about taste. Every one to his liking. I do not believe however, that Dr. DuBois' conceit as to the unquestioned superiority of his draft will be shared in by the membership of the Conference or the country at large. After a lapse of six weeks, it was reserved for Dr. DuBois alone to raise a caustic critical voice with an amazing assumption mudsill. We have our barns filled and our hearts empty. That's the cause of the depression. Materially this is the richest nation on the globe, but spiritually and morally it is infested with gilded villain. Injustice, hypocrisy and lawlessness are the blight and bane of the nation. Men drive their brothers off the highway of human progress and force them into blind alleys. Wealth covers the grossest vice with green-backs. The most brutal and loathsome crimes masquerade in the gilt edged history of the nation. Hypocrisy puts on the cloak of charity so as serve the devil more effectively. Men seek promotion and success through the good name of Christianity. A philanthropists, faithful missionaries, God-called preachers, consecrated teachers and almoners give their lives and fortunes to promote economic welfare and goodwill, but what are these among so many self-seeking racketeers and intrenched, organized agencies for the destruction of human society? What are these against the intrepid army of men who build up vast fortunes on the wreck of other men's hopes, toils and joys? We are playing the racket in the prologue. Great organizations offer men vegetables soup for economic salvation. They give to educate men's minds, but refuse thereafter to employ their hands. They set the schoolhouse on the hill and the devil's workshop in the bottom for the graduates of the school. They treat social maladies but refuse to remove the causes of them. The people in the nation who occupy high places are largely responsible for these causes. Put this down: "God is not mocked. Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." God does something to man—eventually—when man refuses—continuously to do what he can for man and with man. Why do we say on with the depression? We are hard hit, Yes, Millions of us will never live through it, but this wicked and unjust world would not exist long without it. The fact of the matter is that the people who are the hardest hit by the depression are going to fight the fight of the brave to make it through. The spiritual and moral compensations will more than justify the means. Out of it God is going to build world brotherhood, because the foundation is going to be laid for the glorification of practical kindness, economic justice, wholesome living, few frugality, high thinging and nobler living. Bear in mind that bread lines, soup kitchens and community chests as essential as they are in the problems are not substitutes for these fundamental needs of the human race. You say feed the brute. Remember man does not live by bread alone. God commands the brute to feed himself. In the great economic and social drama which God is going to direct He will put the brute where of infallibility. The Negro press, pulpit and other organs of public opinion and expression have quite unanimously commended the Committee's findings. It looks very much like a case of DuBois contra Mundiuni Negrum. I will be permitted to say, in all sincerity, that I appreciate Dr. DuBois' point of view and regard it as worthy of consideration, though perhaps, not quite worthy of acceptance. Certain of his suggestions certainly would have been included in the resolutions, notably the one touching cooperative enterprise, had it reached me in time. As to the others, I deem them too fantastic and far-fetched to have any practical bearing upon the immediate pressure under which we so heavily labor. I do not feel that such radical or had I better say advanced economic doctrine expresses the Negro's sober belief, will or purpose on economic issues. The reconstruction of the economic and industrial order will doubtly go forward under the operation of inherent forces by constitutional and legal methods. But I do not believe that the alliance of the Negro with socialists, communists or any other form of radicalism intent upon upsetting existing law and order will either help the race or advance the cause which he espouses. The Negro should never ally himself with those who would destroy the law, but with those who would fulfill the law. I should think that the experience of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, of which the Crisis is the mouthpiece, in the Scottsboro embroglio, would make the editor rather wary about studying the methods of the Communist except to avoid them. Turn back to page fifty-nine of the current Crisis. Study these parallel columns, weigh them, balance and compare them. Then reach your own sober conclusions as to which more aptly expresses the better way for the Negro to pursue in this day when the world is being battered, as it were, with the shock of doom. Should he sit still in the boat or should he rock it? Do not allow yourself to be carried away with the glitter of the editor's superlative conceit of unmatched skill in the use of epithet and invective, but rejecting all extraneous considerations, study these parallel columns and decide for yourself. I cannot resist the temptation of reciting General Grant's retort to the alleged skepticism of Charles Sumner. When informed that the Massachusetts Senator did not believe in the Bible, he replied: "I am not surprised, he didn't write it." BOOK REVIEWS "WORLD'S GREATEST MEN OF AFRICAN DESCENT." By J. A. Rogers (2293 Seventh Avenue—New York City) As the title implies, this is a book of biography. One that every Negro who prides himself on being well-informed as to the great ancient characters of his race, should read and own. It is printed on heavy coated book paper and is profusely illustrated and bound with heavy book cover stock. A few of the biographic sketches are completed while the majority give but a brief synopsis of what is to appear in a later and complete volume, of the same title. Even though brief, the sketches are written in an interesting and informative manner. The characters, all of African descent, are chosen for their accomplishments including statesmen of royal houses, soldiers, army and naval officers, rulers, musicians, poets, writers and some of the most daring adventurers that I have ever read of of any color. The author, Mr. Rogers, who contributes weekly to the leading colored papers, is too well-known for this writer to attempt an introduction of his works, and even during the years that Mr. Rogers spent in travel, and continuous research, securing the material for his book, he was constantly assisting the Negro Press by contributing exclusive features each week. The Negro Press now has an open opportunity to repay Mr. Rogers by giving his initial volume wide publicity so that the sales therefrom will finance his more complete volume of, "World's Greatest Men of African Descent." Clifford G. Mitchell. he can feed himself. Taking men off the work line to supporting them on the bread line is man's perfect plan for promotion of vice an crime. The depression will not be over until some great mind conceives a plan to carry out that program. Men must work if they are going to be men. It was God's command to man when He put him out of Eden and that command will not be revoked until Shiloh comes. PROTEST UNEQUAL DISTRIBUTION OF PUBLIC SCHOOL FUNDS BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL THEATERS SPORTS APPEAL MADE TO CONGRESS FOR NEW SCHOOL APPEAL MADE TO CONGRESS FOR NEW SCHOOL N.A.A.C.P. Petitions Congress for 20-Room Building in Northwest An appeal to Congress to provide in the District Appropriation Bill for a 20-room elementary school in the vicinity of Tenth and U streets, northwest, with ground for physical character development has been sent to that body by the District branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The decision of the Board of Education and the District Commissioners to turn over to colored elementary pupils Old Business High School, Ninth street and Rhode Island avenue, met with a strong protest from the branch. the petition to Congress points out that Old Business High School is unsafe for young children, is a fire hazard, and is bordered by a congested boulevard, Rhode Island avenue; a car line on Ninth street, fire engine route on R street, and busy thorough on Eighth street. The branch petitions Congress to repeal the act which provides for the use of Old Business High for elementary school purpose. The branch also points out and seeks relief in the congested area bounded south by the Potomac River, north by W street, each by Seventh street, and west by Fourteenth street. Only three school buildings in the extreme northern part of this area are provided for the accommodation of colored in this area north of Pennsylvania avenue. The one school the Anthony Brown, an 8-room school in the area south of Pennsylvania avenue, has been transferred to whites. The petition points out that "more than 35 years ago there were three schools—Garnet, a 12-room building, Tenth and U streets, northwest; Patterson, 8-room building, Vermont avenue, between U and V streets, northwest; and Garrison, 8-room building, Twelfth street between R and S streets, northwest, with 28 classrooms. There are now only three school buildings to accommodate a school population of more than double the population of 35 years ago. These schools are Cleveland, a 12-room building; Garrison, 16-room building; and Harrison, 8-room building, a total of 36 classrooms, or an increase of eight rooms in 35 years. Over 35 years ago this area was a white residential section. Today it is wholly colored except in the downtown business section. Of the total of $1,365,000 appropriated by the Budget Committee for buildings and grounds this year, colored received only $334,000, or 19.6 per cent against 80.4 per cent for whites. In the budget for colored was included several old building that were used by whites are suggested to be transferred to colored. The local branch of the N.A.A. C.P. plans to carry on a systematic program to secure a more equal distribution of these appropriations.

HAVE HIM SELL THE TRIBUNE TUBERCULOSIS ON THE INCREASE IN WASHINGTON TUBERCULOSIS ON THE INCREASE IN WASHINGTON Garnet C. Wilkinson Issues St. tement On Inc. ease Of Disease To discover the causes of the high and increasing tuberculosis death rate for the Negro population of the District of Columbia, as compared with similar population in other northern cities as well as with the white population of Washington, and then to take aggressive action toward removing such causes—this is the goal set for a new and intensive survey by trained health workers about to be launched by the Tuberculosis Association. The planning and conduct of this urgently needed investigation has been placed by the Board of Directors in a committee of which Garnet C. Wilkinson, asst. superintendent of Public School, is the chairman, and which includes Dr. William Charles White chairman of the Research Committee of the National Tuberculosis Association; Dr. Charles A. Tignor, one of the medical inspectors of the public schools; Dr. Viola R. Anderson, secretary of the Tuberculosis Association; and Mrs. Ernest R. Grant, ex officio, as president of the Association. The project had its inception in the statement made to the Board over a year ago by Dr. White citing a statistical report for thirty-nine larger American cities showing the relative increase in the Negro death rate from tuberculosis in the District of Columbia. Dr. White urged that a concentrated attack be made on this situation. Wilkinson Announces Survey Plan Assistant Superintendent Wilkinson yesterday made the following statement concerning the objects and methods of this survey: "The purpose of this study is to establish a plan, on the basis of facts found, for handling the tuberculosis problem among the Negroes of Washington. The study will endeavor to determine remedial efforts applicable under the social conditions in which colored people live and to evaluate measures for preventive work. "An are in the northwest section of the city, just south of the Howard University Medical School, has been chosen for intensive study. A similar area later may be selected in a white section which will give us a basis for comparison. The work will be carried on by three members of the regular field stash of the Tuberculosis Association, who are trained investigators. After the data have been obtained, the second part of the work will include examination and treatment of those in the families studied, who are found to be in apparent need of such service. Each worker is expected to get a certain number of history studies." "The work of this committee is being undertaken at a short opportunity time, for while the general death rate from tuberculosis in Washington is decreasing, the rate among Negroes is increasing. Washington has a total population of about half a million, only approximately one fourth of which is colored. Yet the Negro death rate per 100,000 population is over four times that of the white. Most of the larger cities—Chicago, Detroit, Cincinnati, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, for example—have a smaller percentage of colored deaths from tuberculosis than Washington. It is hoped that this study will discover the economic and social factors which contribute to the unusually high death rate of Negroes in this city. Washington has a rather stable Negro population, living on a fair economic level, and the findings of this study will undoubtedly reveal some interesting and valuable facts." Architect Denies (Continued from Page 1) celled check made payable to an expert advisor whose services were used in the completion of a survey of the new power plant in order to have the same in the hands of the Bureau of Budgets at a time set by them. That the matter of granting the authority for making such a survey had been so delayed by reasons outside of the control of the office of the university architect as to necessitate employment of this service, and that in so doing, it was necessary for the office of the architect to personally advance this sum by reason of the fact that the allotment for this work had been limited to a certain amount. That the said five hundred dollars was not "making good," but after the same had been paid, a mere request was field with the trustee board for reimbursement of the five hundred dollars personally spent.

WESLEY ENDORSED FOR BISHOPRIC BY ALLIANCE WESLEY ENDORSED FOR BISHOPRIC BY ALLIANCE "Church Needs Pentecostal Spirit," Howard Prof. Tells Ministers The Interdenominational Ministerial Alliance passed a resolution endorsing the candidacy of Dr. Charles H. Wesley as a bishop of the A.M.E. Church, in an enthusiastic meeting at Grace Presbyterian Church, last Thursday. The endorsement followed a forceful and moving address by Dr. Wesley to the group and the "Negro Church in American Religious Life." Dr. Wesley, who is head of the department of history of Howard University, presiding elder of the Potomac District, and a scholar of note, outlined the racial factor and its importance in the religious development of the ages. Through compulsion and pressure from without the Negro has developed a separate religious life in America. "It is significant," he said, "that the Negro is the only non-white group which has accepted Christianity as a group religion. This fact itself is a test of the reality of religion. "Prohibition, war, politics and other national questions had been discussed by the church boldly, but the question of color is never a subject. The four periods of the development of the church have been the period of missionary endeavor, during which religion doctrine was altered to suit labor conditions and to promote slavery; a period of the independent church from 1773 to 1801, during which the church administrated to needs of slaves; a period of internal development and expansion and a lastly one of stabilization during the second period many of the great colored churches of today, such as First Baptist of Richmond and Abyssinia of New York. In (Continued on page 12) 1790, there were 18,000 Negro Baptists and 12,000 Negro Methodists. The Movement of the growth of independent churches paralleled the national movements for independence as exhibited in the United States and in France." Contradicting the belief that the modern period is one of decay of the church as a vital organization, the speaker declared that it was a time during which the institution was seeking stability. It is a time when rough edges are being chiseled off. Listing the assets of the church Dr. Wesley praised the Negro ministry for its long years of inspired leadership. Too much stress has been placed on letters and training so much that it is becoming increasingly more difficult for the self-made man to succeed. Much applause and enthusiasms greeted the speaker's declaration that the prophetic and inspirig element on the Negro minister still lived. A second asset was the enthusiastic spirituality of the laity. "If the church is going to save itself, and if it is going to save the world, it must keep up its pentecostal spirit. The Negro is basic organization of Negro life. Solving economic and social problems is not the task of the church, but rather to set right the heart of man." After the endorsement by the body and expressions of approval by the ministry present, Jefferson Conge, recorder of deeds, of Washington, D.C., and active layman in the A.M.E. Church, in a brief ad- 一 Washington Tribune THE TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1982 DR. C. E. RUSSELL NAMED HEAD OF INTER-RACE GROUP DR. C. E. RUSSELL NAMED HEAD OF INTER-RACE GROUP Mary White Ovington Has Formed Organization to Foster Race Relations Dr. Charles Edward Russell, white, author and member of the national board of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, was named chairman of the Washington branch of the Inter-racial Committee of the N.A.A.C.P., following a series of meetings here last week by Miss Mary White Ovington. Miss Ovington, who is national treasurer of the N.A.A.C.P., was in Washington from January 18 to 24. While here she addressed mixed groups and a meeting of friends. The Interracial Committee was organized at the Phyllis Wheatley, W.Y.C.A. Thursday. As a result of this meeting four other committees were appointed. They were segregational cultural relations, education, and employment. All of these committees are composed of colored and white members. Miss Emma F. G. Merritt, president of the local branch of the N.A.A.C.P., is chairman of the educational committee. This committee will hold a mass meeting at the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School on February 15, to acquaint parents with school needs in the northwest section of the city. The segregation committee will take up discrimination in government departments and public places. The employment group will seek a more equal distribution of work for Negroes while the cultural relations committee will work to foster a better understanding between the races. Members of the Inter-racial Committee are, colored: Rev. Robert W. Brooks, Mrs. Frances Boyce, A. S. Pinkett, Miss Mary E. Cromwell, Dr. E. A. Clark, Mrs. Coralie Cook, Judge James A. Cobb, Mrs. Amanda Hilyer, J. V. Herring, Dr. T. Edward Jones, Dr. Mordecal Johnson, Mrs. Morris Lewis, Miss J. Lee, Miss Emma F. G. Merritt, Mrs. Martha McAdoo, Rev. George A.

W. H. C. Brown, president of the Industria. Savings Bank of Washington, D.C., told the alliance that just as they had endorsed M. H. Davis for bishop four years ago, and their endorsement had stood, so their sanction of the candidacy of Wesley would stand. He declared that at least one bishop would be elected at the general conference, and that one would be Dr. Wesley. W. E. B. DuBois received a second flaying by a Baltimore audience this week when he was severely scored for failure to link up with the church in putting over his program. No program not backed by the church had ever an outstanding success, the speakers said. Pickens, and the N.A.A.C.P. were also criticized for the same reason. The meeting was opened with a brief memorial service for the late Rev. J. W. Jones, pastor of Ehenezer Baptist Church, who died last week. This service was conducted by the Rev. G. J. Garnett of Morning Star Baptist Church, and the Rev. W. N. Holt. The meeting closed with the election of officers. The entire slate was re-elected, including the Rev. Ernest Lynden; president; the Rev. W. W. Allen, first vice-president; the Rev. W. H. Taylor, second vice-president; the Rev. W. A. Jennings, third vice-president; the Rev. W. H.

POETS TAKE CITY SERIES LEAD POETS TAKE CITY SERIES LEAD Dunbar Noses Out Cardozo By One Point In Title Play Dunbar High School's quint forged into the lead in the opening game of the local city court series, Monday, by nosing out a 13-12 verdict over the Cardozo Five on the former's floor. The game was bitterly waged from the sound of the opening whistle until the final whistle. Coach Perkins, the Poets' mentor, started his second string combination which has repeatedly shown ability to outscore the regulars during the year. The subs gained a 6-2 advantage at half time. Successive shots by Robinson and Wells put the Clerks on even terms upon the resumption of play, and from here on the battle was just one thrill lafter another with the outcome forever in doubt. Cardozo's sensational center, Wells, matched basket or basket with the Poet players, and the Clerks were in the van, 10-0, when Coach Perkins sent in his first string team. Thompson and Brooks scored goals which subsequently meant deat or the Clerks. Both teams tossed away several opportunities to win the game, but continually missing foul shots.
