RUTHERFORDS AND SMITH SUED FOR $20,695 ON NOTE
Former Insurance Officials Made Defendants In Lawsuit
S. W. Rutherford, R. H. Rutherford and Mortimer F. Smith, former officers in the National Benefit Life Insurance Company were named defendants in a suit for $20,695.30 filed in the District Supre...e Court Saturday by Edwin C. Nelson, New York City.
The bill states that the Rutherfords and Smith delivered to Miles M. Dawson and Son, Inc. of New York a promissory note for the above amount on June 8, 1931. The note was endorsed by Miles M. Dawson and Son and collateral security for the payment of the obligation was deposited in the form of voting trust certificates representing 1,000 shares of the capital stock of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company.
The bill states the makers of the note declared that the stock belonged to them, this assertion being one of the conditions upon which the loan was made. The makers also declared, according to the bill that there were no prior leins against the stock and that they had a right to pledge it. Nelson alleges that he was told the stock was worth $40,000. Nelson is represented by Attorney George F. Williams. The bill declares nothing has been paid on the note and asks the full amount with interest a' six per cent.

Third street, northwest, who is a night, watchman at the plant of the Highway Engineering Construction Company, Seventh and V streets, northeast. According to a statement police said Webb made at the time of his arrest, the fatal shot was fired accidentally as he and the girl were playing with a loaded revolver.
Webb and the girl were alone at the time of the shooting outside of the office of the plant in a parked car. Webb told Detective Sergeant George E. Darnell of the Homicide Squad that he and the girl were sitting in the car playing with the gun. Webb is alleged to have confessed that he had the gun in his hand when the shot was fired. He said that he opened the chamber of the revolver and was playfully snapping it at the girl when the chamber closed sending one bullet crashing through the girl's head. Death was almost instant.

CLARK AND BRYAN RECEIVERS FOR THE NATIONAL BENEFIT
The resignation of Daniel C. Roper, ree'er for the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, was accepted by Justice Daniel W. O'Donoghue in Equity Court of the Supreme Court of the District, on Monday morning and two receivers were appointed by the court.
The new receivers are Gilbert A. Clark, actuary of the Equitable Life Insurance Company of Washington, and Frank B. Bryan, First Deputy Superintendent of the District of Columbia Insurance Department.
In delivering his final decree Justice O'Donoghue only stated that the new receivers had been named and Mr. Roper had resigned. He made no further comment on the now famous case. It was rumored about the court room that lawyers on both sides were prepared to stage a stiff battle, but all controversy was nipped in the bud as Justice O'Donoghue had typewritten copies of his decree distributed to various parties involved and immediately went about trying another case. Lawyers and spectators hung around the court room fully five minutes before it dawned on them that the case so far as this particular angle was involved, was settled.
The final decree was drafted and presented by Justice O'Donoghue when lawyers on both sides failed to agree on a final document. Justice O'Donoghue postponed Friday's session after a half-day argument by attorneys trying to agree on a final document. The court instructed that it would draw up the decree.
In the matter of hiring former or present officers the decree provided that the receivers have full power to carry, at the business and to employ or discharge such counsel, agents, assistants, clerks or other employees and fix their compensation provided no present or former officer or director of the company shall be retained in their employment after March 31, 1932.
A detail examination is to be made, but no new business is to be written. The receivers are to post bond of $100,000 each. The (Continued on page two)

The final decree of Mr. Justice O'Donoghue, handed down on Monday of this week, after a five weeks' hearing in the affairs and conditions of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, meets with the neary approval of the WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. There are a number of important features of this decree affecting both policyholders and stockholders, the most important of which is the suggestion that "the court will defer any decree for the dissolution ... until after ... a complete actuarial account and report has been made ... so as to afford ample opportunity to the stockholders and policyholders to formulate and effectuate any plan for the rehabilitation and reorganization of the company independently or with the co-operation of the receivers."
This suggestion embodied in the court's decree will likely bring about a "multiplicity of committees for the protection of stockholders and policyholders," probably one for each faction engaged in the past litigation, together with groups formed by design individuals to mulch the policyholders in the guise of protecting their interests. It is inconceivable that this bickering and continual strife of the various inside interests will take advantage of this open door for the possible saving or and further delay an intelligent action that might result in the possible saving of the financial interests of the policyholders.
Why can it not be that each of these respective groups assign or delegate authority to a number of independent, experienced, trained insurance men (without regard to color) to call a round-table conference and there discuss, as trained insurance men, the problem as it exists with a view toward its reorganization and rehabilitation? A call has already been issued by a committee "for the protection of stockholders and policyholders," composed of James A. Cobb, Charles B. Lee, Louis C. Washington, Dr. William G. Lofton, and Dr. S. LeCount Cook. Granting these men represent the largest stockholders, how can they discuss any phase whatsoever of an insurance company, either for their own protection or for the protection of anybody else? There is not one single technical insurance man in the group.
It is to be presumed that there will be several other such "committees" which will be made up of a like personnel all desiring to "protect the stockholders and policyholders."
It would be perfectly absurd for the WASHINGTON TRIBUNE to urge upon the stockholders and policyholders to delegate authority and power to formulate plans to such committees when the majority of these same men have had the responsibility and have failed. The TRIBUNE, therefore, is making this appeal to these various groups and factions, to the large and small stockholders, and to the policyholders, to now seek the expert advice and counsel of men devoid of personal interests who, by reason of their experience, and their training, but who might be able to take advantage of the decree's open door and save the National Benefit Life Insurance Company.

MUR KILLS GIRL, 18
THE FIRST WEDDING OF THE MARRIAGE OF THE MARRIED WOMAN AND THE WOMAN WHO WAS THE MARRIED WOMAN
WM. "Long Shot Red" WELLS, well known race track follower and Washington sportsman, who fatally stabbed and shot 18-year-old Ruth Wells, Tuesday in Southeast Washington. The photograph taken last summer, shows Wells with two girl friends.
JURY HOLDS TWO IN SLAYING OF AGED GROCERMAN
George Edward Herndon, 23, of 1909 Twelfth street, northwest, and Marvin Pearson, 21, of 1200 U street, northwest, were bound over for action of the grand jury by a coroner's jury investigating the killing of Anton Ruppert, 63-year-old grocer, at the District Morgue, Tuesday.
Ruppert was fatally wounded when shot by a member of a four-man gang who attempted to rob him at his store, 1900 Eleventh street, northwest, on February 20. The bullet entered the man's cheek and penetrated his brain, coming out at the back of his scalp.
John Ruppert, son of the dead grocer, who is said to have witnessed the killing, failed to appear at the inquest. Young Ruppert is reported to have been in the store at the time of the alleged attempted robbery.
Melvin Jackson, delivery boy at the store, testified that he was lured away from the store by a man whom police say, was Pearson. When Jackson returned he found his employer's body lying in the ice box door with a bullet wound in the head and his pocket turned out. Physicians of the Emergency Hospital pronounced him dead on arrival.
Police were given descriptions of the suspected murderers by Jackson and Lewis Marshall, a fishman, of 1108 T street, northwest, who told police he had observed a quartet of men hanging around the corner since early in the evening, acting on the descriptions, headquarters detectives later picked up Pearson at his home address and Herdon at 1609 Eleventh street, northwest, where he is said to have hung out. Both men denied having anything to do with the slaying.
Two Hospitals Treat Dyin
Two Hospitals Refuse to Treat Dying Colored Girl
Two District hospitals refused to treat a dying girl Sunday morning. The girl died at the third hospital she was taken to. It developed at an inquest into the death of 17-year-old Mary Barnes at the District Morgue Wednesday morning that the girl was taken to Sibyl Hospital, 1140 N. Capitol street, following the shooting. She was refused admittance. Later the girl was carried to Homeopathic Hospital, Secum and N streets, northwest, where he was again refused. In desperation friends of the girl took her to Freedmen's Hospital where she was found dead.
Used Cars and Spring With the approach of spring comes the thought of automobiles. These days of depression has brought down the prices of used cars to the point never seen before. See page fifteen.
GIRL STABBED BY "LONG SHOT RED" DIES OF WOUNDS
Doctors Fight Vain Battle To Remove Ice Pick From Neck Of Victim
Ruth Wells, 18-year-old sweetheart of William "Long Shot Red" Wells, died in Casualty Hospital Wednesday afternoon after she had been shot and stabbed with an ice pick by Wells Tuesday while the two were in an automobile at Second and L streets, southeast.
After shooting and stabbing the girl, Wells got into his automobile and drove down D street past the Court House where he almost ran down Detective Sergeant H K Wilson, chief of the homicide squad and struck the motorcycle of Major Glasseford, chief of police.
The girl is not related to Wells. She lives in the 700 block of Fairmont street, northwest. The girl was to appear in court Tuesday to testify before a grand jury concerning a previous attack alleged to have been made on her by Wells. Police grabbed Wells as he slumped down to the sidewalk after the car crashed. He, was taken to Gallinger Hospital, where an examination disclosed that he was suffering from drugs. At the hospital he became so violent that nurses had to strap him to a bed. He jabbed about a woman.
Physicians at Casually worked for an hour trying to extricate the pick from the girl's neck without causing her death. Police said Wells had gone to the girl to persuade her not to testify against him, and that they drove into the Southeast section, where the attack took place. No one saw Wells strike the girl but several in the neighborhood said they heard revolver shots then a car drive off and a woman screaming. "He has killed me! He has killed men." After leaving the girl, Wells drove crazily uptown to police headquarters. Af Fifth and D streets, across the street from the Police Department Building, he struck another machine, careened into the new motorcycle of Chief Glassford and stumbled from the moving machine.
Wells yelled, "I ahot her, I shot her" then collapsed on the street. Wells is said to have committed the previous attack on February 9. He is alleged to have come to the home of the girl at that time and beat her with his fists and a stick, finally shooting at her. None of the bullets struck her. It was about this attack that the girl was to testify before the grand jury. The hat and shoes of Miss Wells were found in the car. Wells has been arrested many times on charges ranging from housebreaking, liquor running to petty larceny and gambling. Before the last shooting Detective Sergeant Ben Kuechling was waiting for Wells and the girl at the courthouse. The girl was lying on the ground in a vacant lot at Second and L streets, northeast, when the police arrived. An inquest is expected to be held at the District Morgue, Friday.
It is likely that the girl's life night have been saved if she was given treatment at one of the first hospitals she was taken to. Much valuable time was lost seeking treatment for the girl before she was finally admitted to Freedmen's Hospital.
Many persons commented that "it was a shame" how hospitals in the District refuse to treat persons because they happened to be colored. Just what action will be taken against the hospitals that refused to treat "the girl" was not divulged during the inquest or by relatives of the dead girl.

RICKETS GIVEN MORE ATTENTION
RICKETS GIVEN MORE ATTENTION
By U. S. Public Health Service In recent years few diseases of childhood, according to the Public Health Service, have attracted more attention than rickets. Many able investigators have studied the subject by the most modern methods of scientific research, and even among the general public interest in it has been widespread. Rickets is a nutritional disease in which the chief difficulty seems to be related to the adequate utilization of lime and phosphorus. If these two elements are not present in the blood in the proper amount and proportion, deficient calcification of the bones will result, and the characteristic bony deformities of rickets are produced.
The deformities include knock knees, bow-legs, enlarged joints, deformities of the spinal column and pelvis, enlarged head, chest deformities, and similar conditions, and are associated with a prominent abdomen, flabby muscles, sweating of the head, and decayed teething.
At the present time rickets is a milder disease in the United States than it was formerly, and cases with marked deformity are becoming rather rare.
There seems to be little doubt that the development of rickets is intimately associated with climate. It occurs most often and in the severest degree in the temperate zone. Apparently it is more prevalent in cities, particularly in large industrial centers, than in the country.
Though rickets may begin earlier, it is rarely evident much before the third month of life, and the active process is usually over by the eighteenth month. There is, however, a form of late rickets which appears in older children; but it is the widespread common, or infantile type of rickets which is so much discussed at the present time. In this country the more deeply pigmented dark-skinned races are more susceptible to the disease.
The most striking symptom of rickets consists of the various bony reformities mentioned, which are due to a defective hardening of the bones. In order to have perfect
You don't have to be a striking beauty to be popular. No person can resist the alluring fascination, the sparkling eyes, the inviting lips, the physical attraction of a woman whose health is perfect. And it's so easy for every woman to have robust health and the physical charm which comes with bodily vigor. Just start taking St. Joseph's G.F.P. and notice how it helps you right from the start . . . how it invigorates and stimulates you . . . helps to restore strength and energy . . . and to give you plenty of natural charm. This rich, vegetable tonic contains na-
bone formation, the body must have sufficient lime and phosphorus in proper proportions. It is possible, however, for the food taken into the body to contain these elements, but in rickets, owing to the absence of some factor or factors, they are not mobilized so as to bring about proper calcification. This mobilizing factor is apparently vitamin D, and in the absence of this vitamin the body is not able to use the lime and phosphorus in such a way as to insure normal bone development. It is possible, and even probable that there may be other circumstances in addition to a lack of vitamin D which are partly responsible for the development of rickets; but at the present time we have no definite knowledge on this point. In order to present the occurrence of rickets or to cure the distose when it does occur, the antirachitic substance must be supplied in addition to an adequate intake of calcium and phosphorus.
Rickets in itself is not a fatal disease. In view of this fact, one might naturally inquire why the medical profession and a large part of the general public are so concerned about the matter. If children never die of rickets, why take so much trouble to prevent it?
While it is true that children very rarely, if ever, die of rickets, this disease seems to render them more susceptible to infectious diseases. This is particularly true of respiratory diseases. The ordinary rachitic child does not die of rickets, but he may die of pneumonia if his rickets is of a severe type. Not only is there an increased general susceptibility to infection, but the severe deformity of the chest accompanying the disorder seems to add a special hazard in the case of the pneumoniais. This, of course, is true only of the severer types of rickets, which fortunately, are now much less common than formerly.
Happily, there is a tendency for the child to outgrow the conditions of bow-legs and knock knees—the most common deformities of rickets. On the other hand, in some cases these may increase.
One of the most important results of rickets is the deformity of the pelvis. Severe rickets may cause serious malformation of the pelvic bones. Their growth may be arrested so that a rachitic pelvis is smaller than normal; or there may be abnormal and inequal growth resulting in deformity. Pelvic deformities may have serious consequences in connection with child-bearing, and may lead

to the death of the infant, so that rickets must be reckoned with as a factor in infant mortality. In addition to the hazards of rickets already mentioned, there is apparently an intimate relationship between infantile rickets and infantile tetany. The latter is a disease characterized in its severe form by convulsions. Unlike rickets, tetany may be the immediate cause of death, as a result of heart failure or respiratory failure. Since even a mild case of rickets may be complicated by tetany, the prevention and cure of rickets become matters of importance.

HARTSHORN COLLEGE UNITES WITH UNION UNIVERSITY
RICHMOND, Va.-Official announcement was made this week of the merger of Virginia Union University and Hartshorn Memorial College. These two institutions, on adjoining campuses, have worked in harmony for many years. The college department of Hartshorn Memorial College was co-ordinated with the college department of Virginia Union University in 1923, and this arrangement was continued until 1928. The formal uniting of these schools has been expected by their friends and supporters since the closing of Hartshorn Memorial College in June 1930.
As a result of this merger, Virginia Union University is now composed of Wayland College, for men, Hartshorn Memorial College for women, and Richmond Theological Seminary, for ministers and missionaries. The Law School was closed in June, 1931. Virginia Union University will now, through the two colleges, offer the degrees of Bachelor of Arts, and Bachelor of Science, and through the seminary will offer the degrees of Bachelor of Theology and Bachelor of Divinity. The following statement as issued by Dr. William John Clark, president of Virginia Union University:
"The boards of trustees of Hartshorn Memorial College and Virginia Union University have reached an agreement whereby the two schools will be merged into one institution. By this agreement Hartshorn Memorial College will become one of the co-ordinate colleges of the university. It will be the college for women and will in all respects be on an equal footing with the college for men (Wayland College). Every effort will be made to preserve and perpetuate all of the traditions of Hartshorn Memorial College. There are a number of steps involved, including the proper adjustment/ of membership on the boards and the transfer of property titles. These steps will take time to work out completely. Satisfactory progress is now being made and the full consumption of the plan will be worked out as rapidly as possible." On Wednesday morning, Dr. Clark announced to the student body that in keeping with the spirit of co-operation and co-ordination, the name of the new girls' dormitory will be changed from Morgan Hall to Hartshorn Hall. Appropriate services will be held when this change in name is completed.
The income from the scholarship funds of Hartshorn Memorial College has been made available to the students of Hartshorn Memorial College of Virginia Union University. By this means assistance has been given many young women at V.U.U., who would otherwise be unable to remain in school. Other funds will be transferred when the arrangements have been completed.
NIPS DISCOURTESY BUD AT BUFFALO
NIPS DISCOURTESY BUD AT BUFFALO
CLEVELAND, Ohio. (By ANP)
—A protest made by William Pickens, field secretary for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to the superintendent of the Delaware, Laskawanna and Western Railroad company, to the effect that one of the waitresses in the Buffalo, N. Y. terminal station had been prejudiced and impolite in her treatment of him, has brought an apology from the superintendent.
The restaurant at Buffalo is operated by the Union News company. The railroad superintendent informed the manager of Mr. Pickens' complaint and received a reply containing the following paragraphs:
"The waitress, Miss May Maul, the party at fault in this particular instance, states that she remembers serving this gentleman and she felt that she did everything in her power to please him "Miss Maul has been reprimanded and a repetition of such an occurrence will result in her immediate dismissal."
In concluding his response to Mr. Pickens' letter, A. G. Alexander, the Lackawanna superintendent wrote:
"I am very sorry you experienced this trouble and wish to apologize on behalf of our company for such service.
"I thank you for bringing the matter to my attention and assure you it is the rule of our company that employees are expected to give courteous and efficient attention to our patrons at all times."

BEWARE THE COUGH OR COLD THAT HANGS ON
BEWARE THE COUGH OR COLD THAT HANGS ON
Persistent coughs and colds lead to serious trouble. You can stop them now with Creomulsion, an emulsified creosote that is pleasant to take. Creomulsion is a new medical discovery with two-fold action; it soothes and heals the inflamed ormaranes and inhibits germ growth. Of all known drugs, creosote is recognized by high medical authorities as one of the greatest healing agencies for persistent coughs and colds and other forms of throat troubles. Creomulsion contains, in addition to creosote, other healing elements which soothe and heal the infected membranes and stop the irritation and inflammation, while the creosote goes on to the stomach, is absorbed into the blood, attacks the seat of the trouble and checks the growth of the germs.
Cromulsion is guaranteed satisfactory in the treatment of persistent coughs and colds, bronchial asthma, bronchitis and other forms of respiratory diseases, and is excellent for building up the system after colds or flu. Money refunded if any cough or cold, no matter of how long standing, is not relieved after taking according to directions. Ask your drugrist. (adv.)

WATCH
Baby's Skin
FOR
DANGER
SIGNALS
Babies can't talk you know, like big sister and brother, and tell you what's wrong with them. The smart, modern mother has to watch for the little danger signals that tell when baby needs attention and a little extra care. If baby's velvet-brown complexion begins to turn a little sallow and blotched, and she doesn't eat well, or if she is fussy and cries a good deal, don't let the matter go. Look for the real cause. It is probably just a clogging of her tender little bowels. When bowels tighten up, little bodies absorb poison and infection from accumulated body wastes. Then she becomes susceptible to colds and digestive upsets, and even more serious disorders.
The time to act is at once. Give her the gentle but sure regulative help of Castoria.
Don't take a single chance on your precious little darling. She is so dear and helpless and relies entirely on Mother to ease her over the rough spots of babyhood.
Castoria is a pure vegetable preparation made specially for infants and children. It is mild and gentle in action and is absolutely safe as it contains no harsh drugs or narcotics of any kind.
Always keep a bottle on hand. Children like the taste of real Castoria. You can get Castoria at all good drug stores.

Dear President Johnson:
Tt has just been brought to my

unknowingly or knowingly permit:
ter Mr. LaMar to participate. Thi
young man js and was at that
time clearly ineligible under the
rules. He was dropped last year
from our College both on grounds
of scholarship and finance. He ob.
tained permission to return this

understanding between him and
the Registrar, who is in charge of

derstanding, and in the absence of
any permission from the Faculty

Frank Warfield To Manage
Washington Baseball Club
Owner Dykes Signs Two Pitchers. Next Meeting Of
East-West League To Be Held Here.
Eight-Club Loop Assured
Frank Warfield, manager of the
Baltimore Black’ Sox, has been
signed to manage the Washington
team, it was announced by owner
John’ Dykes this week. Dick Lun-
dy, brilliant infielder of the Sox,
will be managtr ef the Baltimore
team.
| Warfield is rated one of the
‘greatest infielders of all tinte and
‘before coming to the Sox he was
one of the mainstays of the Hill-
dale club. Besides Warfield Dykes
told the Tribune this week that he
had signed one pitcher, Foster, who
played with Hilldale last year.
Dykes also stated that he is ang-
ling for a lefthander that will give
the local team two of the best hurl-
ers in the newly-formed East-West
League.
A final meeting of the league is
scheduled to be held in Washing-
ton on March 5, at which time a
schedule is to be made up.
Dykes told the Tribune sport edi-
tor that he has not decided on a
name for the Washington team, but
is willing to let the District fans
select a name. A season pass will
be given the individual whose name
for the Washington club is accept-
ed,
‘Two very busy days were put in
by owners of the East-West Col-
ored League at the expiration of
which several impo “ant matters of
direct interest to the fans were
consummated. The eight club cir-
cuit is seven-eighths complete, with
the New York entry undetermined
because of the failure of the Goth-
am representatives to put in an ap-
Pearance or send any official word.
The matter of laxity or indeffer-
ence on the part of the New York
interests may result in Greater New
York being deprived of an entry
GEORGE SCALES IS
YANKEE MANAGER
PITTSBURGH, Pa, (WPS)—In
a letter replete with praise for M.
E. Goodson, owner of the Black
Yankees, the baseball world was
told last week how and where New
York would place, “Dissolving the
speculation idea as to what might
happen, an official statement has
been issued from. 67 West. 196th
street, New York,
Dykman Oval has’ been sclected
as the home grounds, where lights
will be installed for night playing.
In as much as. the East-West
League saw fit to ignore the Yan-
kees, the club will book indepen-
dent teams at home and on the
road. «
George Scales, probably the %
second baseman of the day, will
manage the Yankees. The support-
ing cast measures up as an at-
traction which will surely draw
customers past the turnstiles, Look

HOWARD CLOSES
WHT TWIN WIN
Howard University closed dts
regular basketball. season, Monday
night in an easy victory over John-
son C. Smith, with a score of 55-24,
after swamping A.€T. on Satur-
day night by a margin of 44-20.
In both games Coach Burr re-
lieved his starting line-up with sub-
stitutions. Neither Hall nor Smith
started in either> game, although
Hall was given a workout in the
second half of the game against
Smith.
In spite of the fast floor work
and accurate shooting of Syphax,
Taylor, and Hall, Pinn at center
was easily the star of both games.
The elongated freshman from
Lynchburg, Va., found no difficulty
in beating ‘his opponent to the tap
and used a cool head and accurate
directions in following signals.
2 He employed his height and ex-
traordinary reach also to decided
advantage under the baskets, as
indicated by his score in Saturday
night's game, where he tied with
Syphax and Taylor for high score
honors at 12 points all. Pinn got

HOWARD “S” WINS
CHANPONSHP
The Howard High School's bas-
ketball’ team, coached by Neviile
Reed, established history in defeat-
ing Armstrong High School, and
capturing the South Atlantic High
School Conference basketball crown.
After the “Douglass Clamor” the
Howard players displayed their su-
perior basketball ability, which has
been noticeable throughout the sea-
son, in turning back a highly toot-
ed Armstrong five, here Friday, by
the score of 41-18.
Both teams were cautious and
did not commit many personal fouls
but were bent on playing a game
built on sportsmanship and skill
Both teams were cordial and en-
joyed a competitive contest that
will Ive long in the hearts of the
contestants.
The fire works were started hy
Armstrong with « quick feld goa
from tap-off, followed by a foul
goal by Capt. Redding, of Howard.
The first quarter ended with
Armstrong leading, 4-1, Benson,
of Howard, started the rally that
did not end until the final whistle
by caging thre consecutive goal
from beyond the center of the floor.
The students went wild with cheers.
The Howardites injected all of their
skill and ability into their play and
bombarded the basket until the half
ended, 19-11 in favor of the Wil-
mington boys.
The second half witnessed the
“parade of the Howard Team.”
Goal after goal was scored by
Howard, through the “pivot play,
center to forward sector play, the
Michigan, take out, ‘Pennsylvania
line drive,” which gives an idea of
how their system works and theit
goals attained. Gibbs, Ward, Ben-
son, were the hiv” gunners ‘of an
all-around squad of nine players
who saw action for Howard, while
Mozee, Mitchel! Farleys were the
three of the fourteen who saw ac-
tion for Armstrong, and who were
the outstanding players. Howard
intends to continue their champion-
ship ideas with their squad intact
for the next season,

MORGAN MACHINE
DEFEAT LINCOLN
Morgan College dribblers moved
a mie higher in their quest for
the C.LAA. prating, by defeating
the fast moving, un eine Orange
and Blue team from Lincoln Uni-
versity here at the New Albert,
Friday night last, by a 45-35
seore.
It was the Orange and Blue ys.
the Orange and Blue last night.
In the end it was that near per-
fect machine assembled by Coach
Hurt taking the measure of its
bitterest rivals.
Cherred on by the vociferous
plaudits of their schoolmates the
two teams battled cautionsly, and
it was not until Bergen, Lincoln's
stellar guard, “swished” two char-
ity tosses through the net, that
any scoring was registered for
either team.
On the next successive plays
Captain Gibson, “Skipper” of the
Bear machine, pigate four pe
on the other side of the ledger
scoring sheet. The Bears worked
hard orae the remainder of the
half to 1 at the rest period by
12 points, 28-11.
Baek in the second half with
Ashby and Bergen» stealing the
show, the Lincoln team forced tho
fight as three successive field goals
registered before the final stanza
was six minutes old, This rally,
however, was short lived as Cap-
tain Gibson called for a time out
and it seemed as though the Bears
heard the pleas of their mates,
“Fite, team, fite!” Swinging back
into action with machine-like pre-
cision the Bears soom widened the
margin to 10 points, which lead
was never thereafter relinquished.
With a few minutes to play, the
Bears gained possession of the ball
and put on the “freeze act.” The
whistle blew with Conrad holding
the ball for a 45-35 victory.
It was that near perfect ma-
chine of Sree Gibson, Wilson,
Conrad, Hackett, and Troupe that
brought the Bears their hard-
earned wr. last night, with
Troupe and Gibson stealing high
scoring honors of the machine with
11 points. Bergen, Ashby and Per-
kins were the shining lights in the
Lincoln defeat, with Bergen tying
Troupe and Gibson for high score
honors with 11 points.

HOWARD 10 MEET
NY. IY COLLEE
Howard University and City Col-
lege of New York will meet in a
charity basketball game in Rock-
Jand Paiace next Saturday in what
i8 said to be the first time in his-
tory that an inter-racial game has
been scheduled between two major
educationgl institutions,
‘The entire proceeds of the game
w:'l go to charity, to be divided be-
tween the Harlem Emergency Un-
employmen: Relief Committee, and
the Washington Community Chest.
Presidents of the two institu-
tions have manifested personal in-
terest in the game, President
Frederick B. Robinson, of City Col-
lege, offered to bring’ the team of
that’ institution to Washington, de-
feaying all expenses, provided
Howard University would secure =
place to play, .nd turn over the en-
tire proceeds of the game to
charity, or to meet Howard in New
York under like conditions,
President Mordeaci W. Johnson,
of Howard \ Univsrsity, seatising
that the game in New Kori wou
attract a larger crowd and thus in-
crease the 2d, agreed to send the
Howard team to New York with
the university defraying the entire
expenses.
Tn adgition to his inberess tthe
charitable objective, President Robs
jnsop has also Sivan ‘a deep in-
terest in Howatd Universiy, stai-
ing that thirty years ago he made
his home in LeDroit Park as a
neighbor of the university, was a
personal friend of President Ran-
Kin, ‘and was personally, familiar
with the early Ristory of the insti-
tution.
Jn commenting ‘on the, forth-
coming game, President Johnson
states, “Tam gratified to learn
that negotiations have been com-
pleted for the baskethell game te-
tween the teams of the College of
New York and Howard, University,
and that the entire proceeds of this
game are to be given to unemploy-
ment relief. Our entire university
community will have joy in this
form of cooperation between tne
students of City College of New
York and Howard University.”
City College has one of the best
collegiate teams in the country,
having been defeated only twice
during the present season, while
Howard has shown phenpmenal
ability in spurts, winning its first
five games against, keen cofipeti-
tion, including Morgan College,
last’ year's C.LA.A. champions on
th ir own floor, accomplishing a
feat that has not been dpulicated in
the last Seven years; and again by
defeating the formidable quint of
Virginia State College in the last
two seconds of play in the game
last Saturday night.
Coach Burr is priming Ris
charges for the New York game
and confident that Howard will
make a ereditable showing in spite
of the strength of the opposition.
Both the coach and the entire
squad are inspired with the oppor-
tunit~ and the splendid sportsman-
ship demonstrated on the part of
City College in their willingness to
meet them on such an occasion.

_ After forty-two minutes of thril-

from the start and gaye Rough
House plenty to think about until
the end. Time and again he would
toss the winner to the mat only
to see agile star wiggle from his

old, Rough House decided to end
the affair and secured a hammer
lock that subdued Jenkins.
‘Three other attractions terminat-

The Pleasant Plains basketball
team, led by the sharp. shook
of Arthur Carter and “Butter” Hill
trimmed the Twelfth Street “Y”
Big Five, Saturday to earn a sec-
ond victory in the Big Four seties
for the ty championship. The
score was 37-28.
TheTwelfth Street “Y”, without
the services of its two stars, Ed-
die Davis and Red Fowler, soap
courageously from the start. The
“Y” Big Five drew first blood with-
in the first three minutes of play
and from this point on it was a
thrilling battle, with the losers
holding the edge throughout the
first half, at the end of which the
score stood 13-18,
Coming back in the second half
of the contest, the smooth work-
ing Pleasant Plains’ machine even-
ed the count early, making the
score 18-18. Successive baskets
by Hill and Carter found thete
team four points ahead, The “Y”
came back to retaliate by neat
scores by Adams and Jeffries to
lock the contest again. In the last
ten minutes of play, the lead
swerved from one side to the other
with action increasing in intensity,
both sides exhibited clever aed
and an accurate exhibition Koel
shooting. Two consecutive be ots
by Jackson and a pretty sl-“ler
by Butler put the winners a:ead
until the gong. The work of the
entire Pleasant Plains was smooth
and brilliant.
Besides the clever floor working
of Everett Davis, Gross and Cov-
ington, the plucky fighting cf Jet-
fries, Adams, and Lee stood out
for the Twelfth Street Big Five.
The shooting of Jefferies and
Adams was outstanding.
This marked the second victory
for the winners and the first de-
feat for the losers.
The Twelfth Street aK Five is
scheduled to meet the Manchester
AC. in the Twelfth Street “Y”,
March &.
The Manchesters and the Elks,

‘DAMOND ADOTION TO ATTEN

Baseball in a big way for ldcal
fandom is the apparent motto of
James Paige, erstwhile club owner
and sports promoter, who an-
nouneed this week through his gen-
era] manager, Lester Perry, the
organization of a new professional
team to represent tHe District.
* The aggregation to be known as
the Washingtgn Royals, is expéct-
ed to commence spring training
sessions at Paige's Park’ in Nor-
beck, Md., sometinie next week. A
twenty-day spring schedule begin-
ning on ot about April 1, through
the Southern States has been ar-
ranged for the new club, prépara-
fory to their initial Northern ap-
pearance. ‘
Though keeping the roster of his
new team a@ secret, Paige an-
nounced that the team will be made
up of players who have made un-
disputed reputations with the local
sandlot and semi-pro clubs. The
players ‘are said to be already
signed and will be announced as
s00n as final plans for training ses-
sions can be formulated.
In a statement to this corres-
pondent, Paige asserts, “The Roy-
als promise the fans a real base-
ball club, one that will demand
their. support and above. ail, ond
we can call our own.” Paige is re-
ported to have spent over $2,000 in
getting his park in Norbeck: in con-
dition for training and. games
when the American League Park
is not available.
The Pleasant Plains semi-pro
club, of which Mr. Paige is also
Peeenc will remain intact as
efore and will be used as a train-
ing farm for the professional team.
The old club is slated to begin hold-
oh meetings on March 15.
he Washington Royals’ offices
will be located at 908-905 Euclid
street, northwest, .
OPPORTUNITY’S
PRESIDENTIAL POL
“PROGRESSING
National leaders highly indorse
Opportunity’s Presidential poll as
most timely in awaking the Negro
to the importance of the coming
Presidential election which is ex-
pected to be close and bitterly
fought. Prominent among those
openly expressing satisfaction and
interest are Mr. Albon L. Holsey,
president of the C.M.A. stores; Mr.
Arthur 4. Schomburg, curator of
Fisk University library; and Mr.
Eugene Kinckie Jones, executive
secretary of the National Urban
League.
Mr. Holsey says: “Opportunity
magazine is rendering our race a
definite and constructive service in
conducting the nation-wide poll to
determine the attitude of the Ne-
gto voter for a competent candi-
date for the Presidency, For the
first time the vote of the Negro
will be taken out of the category
of guess and placed on an intelli-
gent basis, thereby removing the
previous hazard of tampering by
selfish and professional politicians.”
Mr. Schomburg thinks it. very
timely “because the — Negro
finds himself this time between ‘the
devil and the deep blue sea.’ The
Republican party whom he has ai-
‘ways supported has failed him anc
the Democrats as yet have not of-
fered him anything definite. Other
parties, I feel are still in the senti-
mental stage. It ix certainly time
for him to start thinking and gen-
eral appreciation for a magazine
of Opportunity’s caliber can do
imore to arouse a thinking interest
than any other factor. It is a
splendid piece of work.”
Rev. A. Clayton Powell, pastor
of the second largest Negro church
in Ameriea, says, “The Nationa
Republican party has ently
believed from the days of Abrahain
Lincoln until now that it has car-
tied the Negroes around in its
pocket to be delivered in mass
without pledges or promises thé
first Tuesday in November. If the
proposed Opportunity’s Presiden-
tial poll can convince the party be-
fore the Chicago Convention that
one million Negroes have crawled
out of its pocket it will cause the
Republican leaders to do some seri-
ous head scratching and thereby
render an invaluable service to the
race.”
Miss Eva D. Bowis, of the Na-
tional Board of the Y.W.C.A., says,

DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE AT BOOKER T. THEATRE
"Dr. Jekyll and 'Mr. Hyde'—What a title for the lights! The greatest of all dramatic mystery-thrillers! Here is drama that has stood the test of forty years; thrilled millions who saw and marveled; enlisted the prize talent of a century in its portrayal; and which will still be a living drama a thousand years hence. It is a great moral story and will never die. And, through it runs the golden thread of romance, fatefully tarnished by an illicit love. Frederic March, in the title role, gives a great dynamic punch to his Jeky!'-Hyde characterization. His stage successes are well known and his excellent work on the screen in "Royal Family of Broadway," "Ladies Love Brutes," "Paramount on Parade," "Manslaughter," "Laughter," and "My Sin" have won for him thousands of admirers.
Miriam Hopkins—golden-haired Miriam—who mightly panicked audiences in the Broadway stage production, "Lysistrata"; who in "The Smiling Lieutenant" won the applause of fans in her role of the demure princess who turned jazzy and who captured the honors in "24 Hours," now plays her strongest, most gripping role as the Cockney street-girl friend of March's Mr. Hyde.
And Rose Hobart, for years one of Broadway's stage favorites and recently seen on the screen in "East of Boone," plays the important role of fiancee to March's Dr. Kekyll.

Joan Crawford And Clark Gable in "Possessed" At Broadway Sun. and Mon.
The romantic team of Joan Crawford and Cark Gable in a dramatic story of a factory girl who becomes the toast of Park Avenue makes an engrossing talkie of "Possessed," which will come to the Broadway Theatre for two days. The picture was adapted from the Edgar Selwyn stage hit, "The Mirage," and was directed by Clarence Brown, who last filmed the Norma Shearer success, "A Free Soul." Miss Crawford's role as the girl who turns down the man she loves, in order to leave him free to become the governor of his State, gives her every opportunity for a display of her dramatic prowess.

"MURDERS OF RUE MORGUE," LINCOLN THEATRE 5 DAYS
"MURDERS OF RUE MORGUE," LINCOLN THEATRE 5 DAYS
A screen play which is said to excel the unforgettable "Dracula" in the strangeness of its story has been booked for showing at the Lincoln Theatre. The new picture is "Murders in the Rue Morgue," which presents in its featured roles Sidney Fox, charming little New York stage player, who has lately become a favorite of the screen, and Bela Lugosi, who played the title role of "Dracula" on both stage and screen.
"Murders in the Rue Morgue" was adapted from the thrilling story by Edgar Allan Poe, and presents Lugosi as the owner of a gigantic ape, the blood of which he is striving to introduce into the veins of a living woman. It is when the half-mad scientist chooses as his victim a girl impersonated by Miss Fox that the picture becomes a dream of terrific tenseness, complicated by a strangely human obsession suddenly acquired by the powerful ape. In addition to Lugosi and Miss Fox, the cast includes Leon Waycott, Bert Roach, Brandon Hurst, Noble Johnson, and D'Arcy Corrigan.
William Boyd, that "doubleyed" deceiver of the film plots, is back in his celluloid element again in "The False Madonna," Paramount romance-drama of modern life which comes to the Lincoln Theatre Wednesday and Thursday. Boyd's most memorable characterizations have been those of "bad men." He was Gary Cooper's antagonist in "The Spoilers," and tried to spoil the romance of Richard Arlen and Mary Brian in "Gun Smoke." In "The Gang Buster" he tried to bust things up between Jack Oakie and Jean Arthur. In "The Road to Reno" he was the would-be nemesis of Buddy Rogers and Peggy Shannon.
In "The False Madonna," Boyd appears as the master-mind of a gang of crooks who operate in three continents, mutlecting their victims of millions of dollars. Kay Francis is seen as one of the gang, an erstwhile respectable society woman, beautiful, stylish, well-mannered. It is when Kay is sent out as the chief decoy in a scheme to return the missing mother to a youth who will inherit a vast fortune that Boyd's empire of crookedness falls about his head.
Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Observes Finer Womanhood Week
BALTIMORE, Md.—Miss Joanna Houston, assistant dean of Women at Howard University, was the principal speaker of the "Finer Womanhood Week" program at Morgan College's weekly lecture hour, last Wednesday noon, sponsored by the Zeta Phi Beta Sorority.
Miss Houston reminded the sturge, and asked that these responsibilities to be sustained in the college, and asked that these responsibilities be taken seriously. In conclusion she presented five traits that should be common to educated people, the correct use of English, refined and general manners, power of reflecting, power of growth, and power to do.
During the second period of the program, the audience was entertained with a piano selection Liszt's "Rhap-sody No. 2," by Miss Hazel Mitchell, which was followed by a reading entitled "Finer Womanhood," by Miss Daisy Cornish. The program was climaxed with two selections from the rich and vibrant voice of Mr. Morris Davis. His unusual quality and rich tone developed a harmony that was pleasing to the entire audience. Miss Clarisa Jenkins was mistress of ceremony.

"DEATH TAKES A HOLIDAY" HERE SATURDAY
The Howard Players of Howard University will present the Virginia State Players Guild of Virginia State College, Petersburg, Virginia, in "Death Takes A Holiday," by Alberto Casella, Saturday, March 5, in the Medical School Auditorium at eight-thirty o'clock p. m.
This play was acted with great success at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre, New York, where it established itself among the important plays of the season. It is based on the poetic conception of death suspending all activities for three days during which period he falls in love with a beautiful girl, and through her realizes why mortals fear him. A play that arouses thought, stimulates discussion, and presents a novel and optimistic philosophy on the eternal problems of love and death.

A flying squadron of speakers was appointed to visit Negro organizations of all kinds and arouse them to the seriousness of the growing unemployment among colored people and to take action to ed people and to take action to correct this condition.
Revs. H. T. Medford and S. R. Saunders, Miss M. M. Kimball, Mesdames Blanche A. Washington, Alma J. Scott, Julia West Hamilton, Martha A. McAdoo, and Mary Church Terrell; Thomas H. R. Clark, Frank D. McKinney, and Campbell C. Johnson, chairman, were listed to become "Minute Men."

Girl Reserve Department
Girl Reserve posters could be seen all through Armstrong High School building, last week. Each poster asked a question about girls' talents and invited girls to become members of the Friendship Girl Reserve Club. The climax came on Thursday morning at 9 o'clock, in the music class room when the Girl Reserves assembled, followed by a group of over sixty new girls who came to join the club. A very impressive program was rendered with the theme "Graciousness." After a few peppy songs and a talk by the adviser, Mrs. Maxine Whedbee, all joined hands in one big circle of friendship, welcoming the new members.
A group of Dunbar School girls gave a party in the gym last Monday evening. With the music of Mrs. Anita Anderson, all enjoyed the party.

Nannie Burroughs Answers Critics On Depression
I have neither the time nor the desire to talk back in the newspaper, but in The Tribune of February 26, Mr. W. J. Dodson raises several questions and makes certain statements in his supposed answer to my article on "On With the Depression," which should not go unanswered.
Mr. Dodson says he read my article twice and it all seemed so foolish—to him. He is telling the truth. Mr. Dodson is doubtless a modern eunuch, so I'll get in the thirtie with him and try to do what Phillip did.
What is the depression? It is an economic slump over which the world, the flesh and the devil have absolutely no control. Something has go—wrong with the world's works. The physical and social machinery of the entire world have been thrown out of gear.
The man who says the depression is about over is dreaming. He is a false prophet. He is off the track and talking foolishly. If the Government and philanthropy appropriate enough money to shelter the shelterless, feed the hungry, and clothe the naked, indefinitely, it would not throw the nation's machinery back into gear. That would really throw it in reverse. Neither charity, dole nor the bread line is a cure for what hurts us all over. How many times will we have to say that real men want permanent work and not charity, dole or temporary relief? If these substitutes for work are provided over an unreasonable period of time they will work to the moral and physical death of those upon whom they are bestowed. There is no substitute for work. Men who live on charity by force or choice become social derelicts. Men who are satisfied to accept charity are unmoral.
The writer says that I approve of depression. I approve of anything and everything that God does to discipline me and the rest of His refractory, apathetic, and spoiled children. He has millions of these three classes in church and State. The gentleman does not seem to remember that God lets His rain of ater or His reign of correction fall on the just and the unjust. God has no pets. Read your Bible. He ran Adam out of the Garden for eating one apple, and He punished the whole human race for that one man's misdemeanor. God has no pets. He exposed Sampson for his weakness. He turned the light on David's sins. He put Job to a most rigorous test. He let them cast Daniel into a den of lions. He suffered the three Hebrew children to be put into a fiery furnace. Believe it or not, it is written. He did not spare His own Son for taking it upon Himself to help us out of the first depression.
Preachers and deacons must therefore take their medicine because all have sinned and fallen short. Furthermore, "whom the Lord loveth He chasteneth." He beats the devil out of them, that's all.
Let preachers and deacons out-gilded villiany. ePets! When many of our churches are infested with gilded villiany. Pets! When many men seek promotion and success through the good name of Christianity, when moral rottenness fondles about the altar of the Lord and hypocrisy makes its cloak of purple and fine linen. Pets! When wealth sprinkles the grossest vice with Holy water and crime, the most brutal and loathsome, masquerade in the credentials of church membership. Pets! When we condone, tolerate, wink at, support and even acclaub most of those who are responsible for these conditions.
Our God who hates sin and has laid down the law and written out the conditions in every one of His contracts with man, required that we meet those conditions or pay the penalty? He waits, He gives us plenty of rope. When the world gets through with its riotous living, it will do just what the prodigal did. Read that story. It is the story of what is going on now and what is going to happen when we come to our senses. The depression is neither an incident, accident nor calamity. It is a program of divine calisthenics for the development of the spiritual and moral graces in the just and the unjust. The world needs it and God knows it, because while man looks on the outward appearance, God looks into the heart. The heart of the world needs purging of selfishness, complacency, greed and injustice. It takes God to do it and He is on the job.
The writer says that the depression has not affected Nannie Burroughs. Hush the voice that tells you so, because if anybody in this whole world tells you that Nannie Burroughs is not feeling the effects of the depression, he stands at the head of the class of men in First Johnson, fourth chapter and the tenth verse. Read it and see what he is and if there is anything else worse than that, he is that too. Nannie Burroughs never talks about what she is doing for her race or for the womanhood of her race, but she might have to say some things that are rather personal, but it is the truth and it is only for the enlightenment of the gentleman who does not know. Believe me when I say that all my life I have worked for others, and I will work for others to the end.
Not for the sake of the gold,
Not for the sake of the fame,
Not for the price would I hold
Any ambition or aim.
I would be brave and be true
Just for the good I can do.
Give me the thrill of the task,
The joy of the battle and strife,
Of being of use, and I'll ask
No greater reward from this life
Better than fame or applause,
Is striving to further a cause."
Now to what Nannie Burroughs knows about depression. She has been compelled to stay on the Corby's bread line for nearly four years. She is not advertising the virtues of that fine firm, but since that question has come up, we must let our left hand know what our right hand has done and give credit to whom credit is due. If it were not for the kindness, patience and extension of credit far beyond time and credit limits, we would have starved long ago. We have owed the Corby Baking Company hundreds of dollars and they have waited patiently while we went from door to door and from church to church picking up crumbs in nickels, dimes and a few dollars to pay them.
Don't know what depression means? We would have frozen to death four winters ago if our darling friend Mrs. Archibald Hopkins, had not made it possible for us to have a central heating plant. Of course we paid for it, but it took us three long years to do it, and the business people upon whose hearts she laid the matter did not press us.
Don't know what depression means? We dre:/ water from springs and hydrants in the neighborhood for several years because we could not get the money to install water. In our desperation we turned to A. Eberly's Sons and they stood back of us and gave us five years to pay them. Again we went up and down the country begging for money to pay the bill. It cost seven thousand dollars. The heating plant cost fifteen thousand dollars. We did not have a cent in the world, but we had friends, and we worked like slaves to build up a creditable institution.
Don't know what depression is? We have actually put scores of ambitious girls through school. Many of their parents could not help them, others helped in part, but we stood back of them. How we did it, God only knows, but we can give you a list of those who are holding splendid positions right here in Washington. They are living witnesses of what we know about depression. We are still helping. The load is heavy. Don't know what depression is? Several colored business men in this city have stood by us like big brothers. Murray Brothers, the printers, and a distinguished financier are among them. Don't know what depression is? Had it not been for Congressman Oscar Dreistri and the loyal group of Washington friends, this school would have been too crippled to run last year. We are still having a time trying to make ends meet.
Don't know what depression is? Nannie Burroughs can never tell you how many personal sacrifices she has had to make to carry on this work—even to the sacrifice of her own life insurance policy.
Business men in both races—men who do not lie—can give you some inside information as to the truthfulness of these statements. God bless them for they have stood by us. Nannie Burroughs has made these sacrifices without posing as a benefactor and she would never mention them but for the fact that honest people like to know the truth.
Yes, the depression is good for us. I speak as one having authority. I live in the midst of it. It has made me think, pray, work. It has made me make a way when I could not find one. It keeps me looking Godward. It makes me understand, sympathize with other burden bearers. I know poverty. I know what it is to get up in the morning without a dollar and go on working as if I had a million dollars. I know what it is to trust God and at the same time work like a Trojan.
The depression is not over and it will be a long time before we wake up and use our brains and brawn and get back to normalcy and to God. Don't forget that the jobs of millions of people have gone three ways. They have gone to machines, they have gone to race prejudice, and they have gone out of style. Don't forget that if the world is ever made safe for human beings, that men must be put to work, because an idle brain is the devil's workshop.
Yes, the depression affects John D. Rockefeller, Henry Ford, and Andrew Mellon. Yes, rich men feel this depression. It upsets their ambitious industrial programs, it gives them restless nights and watchful days. It makes them share more with the less fortunate. It keeps them uneasy. They have much and they can and will lose much as long as millions of their brothers are idle in hands and brains. Yes, it affects the rich. It makes life for them unsafe. Even Landbergh's little baby in the cradle is not safe.
Yes, depression is good for us. It will make the sensible poor more thoughtful and frugal and the idle rich more helpful in devising ways and means of employment, for the unemployed. Out of this untoward condition will eventually come an international industrial fraternity—the organization of the labor and skill of the world that will include all men who have brains or brawn to offer for their support and the support of their dependents. When and how? God only knows.
I repeat what I said before, "God moves in a mysterious way. His wonders to perform."
Let's work and trust, and let nothing break our spirit. That's all.
MRS. BOOZE IS AGAINST NAMING OF MONTGOMERY
"He Has No Respect For Colored Women" Says The Committeewoman
JACKSON, Miss. (ANP)—In a statement made public here Tuesday, Mrs. Mary C. Booze, Republican National committeewoman of Mississippi, bitterly protested the confirmation of B. B. Montgomery, a white man, who was nominated February 20, by President Herbert Hoover to be United States Marshall for the Northern District of Mississippi.
The reasons for the protest were listed as: Mr. Montgomery is a member of and supported by a group of lily-whites who publicly state that he did not believe there were any chaste women in the Negro race and would not participate in a Republican committee meeting in Mississippi with a Negro woman; and that his appointment as United States Marshall will intimidate and thereby prevent Negroes from participating in the regular election of delegates for the National Convention.
Mrs. Booze has consulted with various United States Senators urging them to vote against the confirmation of Mr. Montgomery and has solicited the aid of Negro Republicans throughout the country. She has emphasized the necessity of defeating Mr. Montgomery and is urging Republican leaders and prominent colored people all over the country to join her in the fight against him.
In the meantime, the Regular Republican Organization headed by Perry W. Howard, national committeeman, is making plans for the meeting which will be held April 30 for the purpose of electing delegates to the National Convention, despite some difficulties with S. D. Redmond, State chairman.
Mr. Howard's faction was successful at the last convention and is gaining preference of recognition over the group headed by Lamont Rowland, who heads the lily-wild organization of which Mr. Montgomery is a member. A bitter fight is expected at the fourth-coming convention but Mr. Howard feels that the regular organization will again be recognized even if it requires a contest at the convention of Chicago.
Mrs. Lucy Jane Brown, Prominent In Elks Circles, Passes
Hundreds paid final tribute to Mrs. Lucy Jane Brown, 63, at the funeral rites held from the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church, Tuesday, with Rev. W. A. Brooks conducting. Mrs. Brown, mother of Mrs. Ruth Cumber, past daughter ruler of the Columbia Temple of Elks, died suddenly at her home, 1226 U street, northwest, Saturday morning. Burial was at Lincoln Cemetery. Born in Rapidan, Va., Mrs. Brown came to Washington 38 years ago. She was a member of the St. Lukes and well liked by all who had occasion to come in contact with her. Numerous telegrams, letters of condolence, and floral tributes from all over the country were received by the Mrs. Cumber. Thirty-seven cars were necessary in transporting the host of friends from the church to the burying grounds.
Many organizations, including the Health Unit of the Elks, Ladies Auxiliary of Local 34, and the Bucks Club turned out to pay their last respects to the deceased woman. Rev. Fantroy, of Alexandria, Va., assisted Rev. Brooks in conducting the funeral rites. Testimonials were read by Victoria Gray, Janie Hutchinson, Vergie Franklin, Charlotte Luckett, and Maude Burns Flemmings. Mrs. Luckett's paper entitled "Mother," was slowly read as the Health Unit of Elks hummed in unison. "God Be With Us" Til We Meet Again. Solos were rendered by Herbert Jones, deputy of the Columbia Lodge, No. 85; Lawrence Curtis, and Miss Florence Webster.
Honorary pall bearers on the occasion were Rev. Fantroy, Mr. Jones, William Maxwell, and John Hammond, while active pall bearers were William Washington, Joseph Mumerbyn, John Mathews, Murray Davis, Dr. Harding, and Charles Kyler. Out-of-town persons attending the funeral were Mrs. Marie McKnight, of New York; and Mr. and Mrs. D. P. Hudnell, of Flushing, L.I.
Surviving Mrs. Brown are: her daughter, Mrs. Ruth Cumber, local reactor and Elk official; a son, William H. Brown; a granddaughter, Elizabeth Sewell; and four grandchildren, son-in-law, James A. Cumber; and cousin, Elizabeth Harris.

THE TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, MARCH 4, 1932
Despondent Over Ill Health, Man Tries Suicide
Despondent because of ill health, Frederick C. Ellis, 24, attempted to commit suicide by inhaling illuminating gas. Thursday, Ellis was found in bed on the second floor of his home at 2 L' street, northwest, with two gas jets turned on. The man was found by George Roebuck, Landlord, who detected an odor of gas and made an investigation.
The No. 1 Precinct Squad responded and rendered first aid and Ellis was later taken to Gallinger Hospital where his condition was announced as undetermined.
Two notes, one addressed to his brother, Blanchard K. Ellis, of Chicago, Ill., and another to Thomas Jackson, 909 French street, northwest, were found in Ellis' room. Ellis was said to have been in ill health.
MISS BURROUGH'S COMEDY REACHES EIGHTH EDITION
Thee eightth edition of "The Slabtown District Convention," a comedy in one act written by Nannie H. Burroughs, has just been revised and republished by the Murray Brothers' Press. Miss Burroughs' wit and humor in this little play has caused it to become one of the most popular amateur stage presentations in the country. Lodges, dramatic clubs, churches and school fraternities demand dozens of copies of it each year, orders coming from as many white people as colored. Wednesday night, "Irma and Izary," a new feature on the program of Station WJSV, used the sermon of "Rev. Bigjohn," changing the dialect from Negro to mountain iargon
Even in the comedy of the general make-up of the play, Miss Burroughs has put a lot of honest-to-goodness common sense. For instance we get from Miss Diggs, one of the characters:
"Teach your children to be industrious by not letting them sit around while you do the work. As soon as they are able to walk and drag things all over the house for themselves, they can be taught to drag things to you, thus savin' you many a stop. They can begin by doing the little things, and fas' as they grow in strength their labors should increase. Don't have no lazy children settin' around you while you are washing and ironing, and scrubbing and cleaning. Unless they is sick with the measles or smallpox or something, make them work. It is good for them.
"The highest duty of the mother is to train the chile spiritually. I ain't got no patience with mothers who think they can have religion for the whole family, for half of you ain't got religion enough for yourselves, and if you take upon your shoulders the spiritual obligations of all those children of yours, you will all pull up at the Bad Man's house, to stay forever. If religion is good for you, it is good for your children, and the sooner you get them in the church and teach them to be faithful to every obligation, the sooner you will be partially relieved of a God-given duty.
"I forgot to tell you about these children who run all over this community and don't have a bath nor a change of garments from one end of the week to another. I forgot to tell you about these little misses who are so offensive to my olfactory organs that I can scarcely set by them without using my smellin' salts. Now, if you mothers had been bathing these children and teaching them how to bathe, when they were little, we would not have to be offended in this way. It is your duty to teach your chile the value of soul and body, and how to properly care for each. There are lots of women who are members of this convention, and great missionary sisters who ain't half doing their duty at home. My advice to you is to go home an dwork on your own children, and then you is to go home and work on somebody else's children."
Copies of this play can be secured by addressing Nannie H Burroughs, Lincoln Heights, Washington, D.C.
Hampton Institute Host To Y.M. & Y.W. Conferences
HAMPTON INSTITUTE. Va.—The conference of the Virginia State Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. that convened at Hampton Institute on February 26-28 had as its main purpose: to provide stimulating and enriched fellowship; to help cabinet officers and Association members group the basic philosophy of the Christian Movement, and through discussion and general sharing of experiences help the group arrive at some of the most helpful skills, techniques, and methods of planning and promoting local Association programs. The leaders of the conference were Miss Carrie E. Mears, National Y. W. C. A. secretary and Mr. W. H. Pope, National Y. M. C. A. secretary. The speaker for the event was the Rev. Howard Thurman of Atlanta, Georgia. President Arthur Howe also addressed the conference.
On Saturday there was a joint meeting with the members of the Tri-State Conferences, which is composed of representatives from Baltimore, Delaware, and the District of Columbia. The Tri-State group is an interracial one.
SAYS H. U. CUT OF NEARLY MILLION IS TEMPORARY
Representative Taylor Says Reduction In Budget Is "Furlough"
The nearly million slush in the Howard University budget through the Interior Department supply bill was said to be temporary by members of the House Subcommittee on appropriations who were guests, Wednesday, of the university at the Charter Day exercises.
The Howard item in the measure as reported by the Senate Appropriations Committee is cut to $675,000. The original budget estimate for the university was $1,610,000.
for the university. The Senate committee again struck out the provisions written by the House that no salaries shall be increased and no vacancies shall be filled without a written order from the president. The House chopped $535,000 from the Howard University estimate and the Senate committee pared off an additional $400,000. The latter figures represent $300,000 for a heat, light and power plant and $100,000 toward the construction of a library building.
Members of the House Subcommittee on Appropriations including Representative Edward T. Taylor, chairman, of Colorado, attended the 65th anniversary of the university and granting of the university charter by Congress.
Representative Taylor said the committee's action "reflected in no way on Howard-University." "The cuts were made," Representative Taylor said, "because we had to call a halt. They represent mere furghouts of projects which still are to come."
Representative Taylor urged the students, especially the girls, to prepare in school to support themselves. He said it's quite probable many of the girls will marry "no account" boys, "and you will find yourself in real need of independence."
Representative Frank Murphy, of Ohio, was also a speaker. Louis C. Cramton, former chairman of the committee, who now is a legal advisor in the Interior Department, reviewed his 18 years in Congress, and said he regarded his work in connection with Howard as the most important accomplishment during his term in Congress.
Other speakers were Representative Burton L. French, of Idaho; Representative William W. Hastings, of Oklahoma; and Representative William J. Granfield, of Massachusetts. Dr. Mordecal Johnson, president of the university, presided. Dr. Johnson said cuts were in line with the country-wide necessity for economy. The Rev. D. Butler Pratt, dean of the School of Religion, opened the exercises with the invocation. Music was furnished by the university choir, the Glee Club, and Mrs. Edyth Sewell, who sang a solo.
JURY PICKED IN MAINE MURDER
AUGUSTA, Maine.—Mrs. Eleanor Johnson, pretty young woman, calmly listened to charges made against her by County Attorney H. C. Marden, of Waterville, accusing her of the murder of Abraham Levine, wealthy young white cattle dealer, in court this week.
The case began Tuesday with a jury of 11 men and one woman. The county attorney described in detail the finding of the four bullets in the body of young Levine on last September 26, and told of the examination made of the bullets by Sergeant Leon P. Shepard, of the State Police. He told how the gun was traced from the factroy to Mrs. Johnson, and then he called nine witnesses, including Merton and Samuel Levine, brothers of the slain man.
Herbert W. Hart, a tailor, told of driving Mrs. Johnson home on the night of the murder and of their finding the body of Abraham Levine. Merton Levine, once a lover of Mrs. Johnson, was at one time thought to have aided in the murder, but the grand jury did not return an indictment against him.
Says More Whites Than Negroes Die From Diptheria
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (By ANP)
That more than twice as many whites die from diphtheria as do Negroes and that ten times as many whites commit suicide as Negroes, was the assertion made by Dr. J. N. Baker, of the Alabama State Health Department in emphasizing the need of observing National Negro Health Week, here Wednesday evening.
Speaking before a large mixed audience, Dr. Baker further declared that the Negro has suffered badly from the white man's diseases and ascribed the excessive mortality rate from tuberculosis to the fact that this disease was unknown in Africa, therefore, the Negro did not have the opportunity to develop immunity to this disease.
A state-wide observance of National Negro Health Week will be held and the State Department of Health has promised wholehearted support and cooperation.
Teachers of the school attend a number of the meetings of the National Education Association, last week.
The vocational pupils sang two numbers, "Music in the Air," and "I Long To See," as their part in the Children's Institute program at the John F. Cook School, Wednesday.
Fifty-six students, accompanied by Mesdames Eva Blake, Ophelia Lancaster, Florence P. Clark, and Mable Reeder took part in the community singing at the Capital Plaza, last Monday. A letter of commendation has been received from Prof. A. H. Johnson, director of music in the public schools.
A playlet, "Planning a Wardrobe," given by Section D A-1, of which Mrs. Phelicia Bentley is teacher, featured the parent-teacher association meeting held at the school Tuesday. Short talks were also given by Miss G. E. Jones, Mrs. M. V. Koonce and Mrs. E. Burrell.
ATTACKS JAMES WELDON JOHNSON AS "FREE LOVER"
ATTACKS JAMES WELDON JOHNSON AS "FREE LOVER"
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., By the ANP)—According to an article published in the Times, white dally of this city, Frederick W. Millspaugh of Nashville, brought a message to the Sons of the American Revolution meeting here in the Hotel Patten that was filled with alarm, over the activities of colored and white teachers in schools for Negroes in the South.
The chief object of Millspaugh's attack was James Weldon Johnson, who occupies the Spence chair of creative literature at Fisk university. Millspaugh, who knows nothing of Johnson, asserted that he had looked up his record and discovered that he was a member of a "free love" cult and also divined that he was a Red from his connection with the American Civil Liberties Union. Millspaugh got "his free love" notion from his interpretation of the purposes of the Garland Fund which Mr. Johnson headed at one time.
He also described how an international club had been formed at Nashville with a white woman as president and Johnson as vice-Pres. and pointed out the great danger that might ensue from permitting a white woman to be allowed in a position where sex matters might be discussed with a "buck Negro."
HOW CAN I FORGET
Seeing you once
How can I forget
That our eyes have smiled
And our hands have met?
Our souls have known,
And our hearts have cried
Though our lips were dumb!
Ah, the world is wide.
And love there is
That we both may know,
But my eyes were dim.
As I watched you go
For you may come no more.
You understand you hold
The key to the innermost door
Of my heart of hearts.
For our hands have met
And our eyes have smiled;
You understand,
That's why I can't forget.

HAWKINS DELIVERS
ADDRESS. AGANST
BRYANT AT TANPA
‘TAMPA, Fla, — The Bishops
Council of the A.M.E. Church meet-
ing -with the Church Connectional
Council, met_in a two-day session
at Tampa, Fla., last Friday and
Saturday. Depression failed to af-
fect the attendance as a record
crowd was noted,
‘This being the last Connectional
assembly before the meeting of the
General Conference at Cleviand, O.,
in May, delegates attended in large
numbers. Since the bishops meet
in executive sessions, popular in-
terest centers around the Connee-
tional Council, made up of general
officers, ministers and lay members,
and it’ was here the “fire-works”
were set off. The main topic on
the street and in the sessions of
the council was the presentation of
the case of the “Church vs, Ira T.
Bryant.”
Bryant, one of the general of-
ficers of the church, _secretary-
treasurer of the Sunday School Un-
ion, edits a newspaper, “The Young
Allenite.” In his columns he has
for years waged a campaign of
abuse against bishops, general of-
ficers and all chureh leaders. For
some. strange reason. he has. been
permitted to go on with this tirade
gnd yet come to the general e98-
ference for re-election, Some
months ago the lay members of the
church deci ied to call a halt to a
policy that seemed to. be retarding
the progress of the connection.
Dr, John R.. Hawkins, financial
secretary, and WH. 6, Brown,
president of the National Lay-mem-
bers! Association, undertook the de-
fense of the church and have visited
many of the State Conference
meetings, Dr. Hawkins having
made 195 speeches.
Among the wild and_indiscrim-
inate charges made by Bryant was
that “behind the financial secre-
tary’s report was a lie a8 black as
hell itself.” “He boldly declared. ir
his paper that if the present finan.
cial secretary did not agree to dis-
tribute the dollar. money. as he
(Bryant) desired, he would “put
Hawkins out and get a financial!
Hecretaly’ who wed ”
Dr. Hawking’ accepted the chal:
lenge and all over the Connectior
bas Rt the question, “Will you, pu!
Hawkins out, or will you put Bry
ant out?” In Tampa as every
where the general conference dele
gates answered in no uncertain
tones, “Put Bryant out.”
Dr. Hawkins in his Tampa ad-
dress. made what many of his
friends regarded as the most-elo-
quent efforts of his life. He pic-
tured the disloyal attack of Bryant
as parasitan boring into the pil-
lows of the church, and if permit-
ted to go on, the pillows would be
weakened and the Temple be de-
stroyed. So forceful was he in his
argument that J. H. C. Brown, who
was on the program to close the
argument, decided-it was useless to
proceed and gave as his opinion
that the campaign to rebuke Bry-
ant. for disloyalty was a success.
_ Delegates attending from Wash-
ington were W. H. C. Brown, pres-
ident of the Industrial Savings
Bank; John R. Hawkins, president
of the Prudential Bank ‘and finan-
cial secretary of the A. M. E.
Chureh Rev. W. H. Thomas, pastor
ot Metropolitan AME. Church;
George A. Robinson, Dr. Charles
H. Wesley, of Howard University,
a candidate for the bishopric; Jef-
ferson Coage, recorder of deeds;
and Rev. Armstrong. .

By MRS. R. M. KENDRICKS
The cultural background of the Grimke family, which possesses an inviolable reputation through several generations for fearlessness in the cause of right, for a vast interest in the social welfare of the underprivileged, and for limitable work in behalf of justice for the Negro, is indicated in a miscellaneous collection of books recently given to Howard University by Dr. Francis J. Grimke, former pastor of the Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church, and for many years a member of the trustees board of Howard University. The Grimke collection contains more than 2,200 volumes, as many pamphlets, sermons and speeches, and several thousand clippings collected over more than half a century of close contact with the national upheavals of the period.
Aside from the rare editions, the old imprimatures, and the unusual bindings dear to the bibliophile there are in the collection many items of general interest and others of special interest to those who have had contact with Howard University. The gift of these books has renewed interest in the accumulation of Negro Americana as Howard, and in the establishment of a research center for writers and others interested in the Negro question.
Many of the books in the collection are autographed copies and other association volumes. These include gifts to members of the Grimke family, books by members of the Grimke family, and gifts to Mrs. Francis J. Grimke (Charlotte L. Forten), granddaughter of James Forten, a Negro abolitionist of Philadelphia, and a warm friend and supporter of William Lloyd Garrison. Among the latter are several autographed volumes of the works of John Greenleaf Whittier presented by the author to Miss Forten, and several signed gift, books from Thomas Wentworth Higginson, Colonel of the first South Carolina volunteers during the Civil War, and later a well-known contributor to American letters.
Of Mrs. Grimke's own literary work, there is a translation of the Erckman-Chartrain- novel "Madame Theresa," for the Charles Scribner Publishing Company, 1869.
Old Howardites will be particularly interested in a copy of "Plato's Best Thoughts," from the Jowett translation, collected and published by Dr. C. H. A. Buckley, former professor of rhetoric and literature at Howard University. Inserted in this volume are two handwritten letters from Dr. Buckley to Dr. Grimke, dated October 31, 1885 and November 2, 1885. Another item of interest is a copy of the second edition of "Esher Burr's Journal," edited by Dr. Jeremiah Eames Rankin, former president of the university, and printed on the university press. There is also a gift edition of "A Sermon in Memory of William Weston Patton," another president of Howard, by his son, the Rev. Cornelius II Patton.
The wall of the Grimkes and the Fortens in the ways of the early promoters of the anti-slavery movement and with the abolitionists is reflected in gift and autographed copies of books and mention in the writings of the great stalwarts of those organizations.
Mr. Archibald Grimke, late brother of Dr. Grimke, and a promoter of the N.A.A.C.P., is the author of two books in the collection: "The Life of Charles Summer," and "The Life of William Lloyd Garrison," and his daughter, Miss Angeline Grimke, has contributed a play, "Rachel," and several poems to the Grimke output. Other Grimke matter includes "The Works of Frederick Grimke." 1871, and two books by Thomas Smith Grimke, one a collection of essays and addresses on the temperance movement, the other two essays and an oration on science, literature, and religion, 1831.
Of especial interest is a volume of addresses in memory of Angelina Grimke Weld, delivered at her funeral at Hyde Park, Mass., 1879, and later printed for private circulation. Among the contributors to this volume were Mrs. Lucy Stone, feminist, and Wendell Phil-
lips, anti-slavery agitator. The book also contains memorial sketches of Sarah Moore Grimke.
Other items include autographed copies of the poems of H. Cordelia Ray, signed books by Lucy Larcom and by Lillie Chace Wyman, a volume in memory of Robert Gould Shaw presented to Mrs. Grimke by William Shaw; gift copies of "Papers on Literature and Art" and "Woman in the Nineteenth Century" by Margaret Fuller, Marchioness Ossoli, a noted feminist of the time. There is also a copy of "Roman Antiquities," 1814 by Alexander Adams, Rector of Edinburgh, and containing the inscription: "Francis J. Grimke, presented by his aunt, Mrs. Angelina Grimke Weld."
The books in the Grimke collection by and about the Negro will increase the Negro American already housed at Howard University. The Negro collection began with a gift of about 300 books in 1873, and in 1914 was increased by a gift of 3,000 books and pamphlets by Dr. Jesse Edward Moorland, a member of the board of trustees, Howard University and formerly international secretary of the Y. M.C.A.
More than forty years before the Moorland gift was received, however, the library of Lewis Tappan, one of the most famous anti-slavery agitators in America, was presented to Howard. In the Tappan collection are found rare books, complete files of reports of the Anti-Slavery Society, pamphlets, and a few hand-written man scripts never published and all relating to the anti-slavery movement in the United States and in Europe. Though small in size, the Tappan collection forms one of the most authentic sources of such data now extent.
Other collections at Howard include the Lavalette miscellaneous collections and the John W. Cronwell (Washington, D.C.) collection which is composed of folios of newspaper clippings referring to incidents leading up to the war of the rebellion, the events of that period, and those immediately following the war.

REPS. BLANTON & LAGUARDIA WILL DEBATE ON LIQUOR
The Columbia Institute of Public Affairs, arranged by the Columbia Broadcasting System, will present a prohibition debate, Saturday, March 5, from 10:30-10 p.m., between Representatives Fiorello H. LaGuardia, Republican, of New York, and Thomas Blanton, Democrat, of Texas. The question to be debated will be whether affirmative action is advisable on the Beck-Linthicum bill to turn the liquor problem back to the States.
The debate was arranged by Columbia shortly after the 145th necessary signature of a House member was placed upon a petition which, with that signature, automatically placed the bill before the House of Representatives. It was considered the first legislative move since passage of the 18th Amendment with a definite threat to abolish prohibition. Mr. LaGuardia, who has consistently led the anti-prohibitoinists, and Mr. Blanton, one of the more out-spoken drys in the House, have not yet decided what exact form the question for debate will take. Mr. Blanton suggested that the question be "Should the 18th Amendment be Modified as Provided in the Beck-Linthicum Bill?" Mr. La Guardia chose the resolution "The 18th Amendment Having Been Proved a Success, It Should Not Be Repealed by the Beck-Linthicum Amendment."
The debate will be broadcast by Columbia over a network of more than 70 stations from Columbia's studios in Washington.
Y.M.C.A. Junior Defeat Seat Pleasant Dribblers
The Twelfth Street "Y" Juniors went on a scoring spree last Saturday in their contest with the Seat Pleasant High School, romping to a 55-28 victory. In the first half of the contest, it was a nick and tuck affair with neither team gaining over a 3-point advantage. At the intermission, the contest stood 22-18 with the "Y" leading. In the second half however, the sharp shooting youngsters locked the cord with a regularity that bewildered their opponents. With the whole team shooting, the winners soon drew far ahead and in the last twenty minutes of play brought their total to 55 while the losers accrued a total of 28.
Glymph and Miller registered 28
points between them. The former
16, while the latter collected 12.
Sharp shooting on the part of
Briscoe and Smith, coupled with
the uncanny floor work of Hall,
contributed greatly to the down
fall of the visitors.

Mr. McCuisition is the successor to Prof. Arthur D. Wright, formerly of Darthmouth College faculty, who was last year executive agent of the Southern Association accrediting colored schools. Professor Wright resigned the position to accept the presidency of the Slater Fund, succeeding Dr. George Foster Peabody.

Brawley, Clark University, will discuss the subject, "Improvement of Instructions at the College Level."

An innovation in the program will be an address on "Student Health," by Dr. E. H. Allen, university physician at Howard. Dr. E. P.

Dean W. T. B. W. Williams, of Tuskegee Institute, will offer a forecast in the subject, "Higher Education for Negroes in 1950." Music for the occasion will be provided by a men's quartet of Alcorn A. and M. College.
According to president Wilkinson one of the most interesting phases of the convention is the Question Box, conducted in the last session of the convention, during which time the deans and registrars will have the opportunity to secure answers to questions designed to solve problems confronted in the respective fields. The Question Box this year is to be conducted by John B. Cade, registrar of Prairie View State College.
From present indications, according to Mr. Wilkinson, there will be 100 delegates present, representing as many as seventy-five colleges throughout the United

SOMETHING TO
THINK ABOUT
By A. Elizabeth Valentine
The affairs of a great airman have been spread upon the Press. Various observations can be heard with regard to this man. One of the most interesting is that, "He is cracked, anyway. Any man who risks his life for the reason that he did is cracked and a fanatic."

the courage to face extinction for a great cause, or to illuminate a great truth is a "fanatic."
Therefore all the great leaders, explorers, teachers, and geniuses that the world has produced thus far, are fanatics. All those who have made the world's history; Alexandria the Great, Lincoln, Napoleon, Mozart, Handel, Beethoven, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Moses, Jesus of Nazareth and all of that glorious company who have guided, and comforted faltering humanity thus far along the weary journey.
It is interesting to contemplate what would have been the history of the world if these "fanatics" had been "normal." There would have been no development of the arts, no scientific discovery, no political evolution. Every man who has made an exceptional contribution to the progress of humanity has had to bring unusual concentration to bear upon his specialty. And this unusual concentration has cost him a loss of energy in other lines of endeavor.
therefore sometimes earning for him the cognomen, "crazy."
Let us be properly, and intelligently thankful for the glorious company of "fanatics" that have preserved and benefited the world. If snide judgements and the norm of mentality had ruled the world it is easy to see what would have been the trend of human enlightenment.
It is also probable that those who label the unusual of the world "cracked" seek to cover their own lack of courage by sneers. Let us be big enough to give credit where credit is due and not allow our own imperfections to color our judgements.
According to the judgement of the Man in the Street, the word "fanatic" has been mis-used until now. If all those who have risked death and damnation for a human cause are to be classed as fanatics; then the company of fanatics is indeed glorious, and may we Negro people produce more and more of them.

GARNER COULD MAKE HOOVER VICTORY EASY
CHCAGO, Ill. (ANP)—In spite of the large amount of anti-Hoover sentiment in various sections of the country, William Pickens, field secretary for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, interviewed here during a stopover, Saturday, expressed the belief that the Presidential boom for John M. Garner, Texas spekaer of the House of Representatives, contains aspects that are very favorable to Mr. Hoover, Says Mr. Pickens;
"A good many of us were feeling 'sore' at Hoover, and here comes Garner, Speaker of the House, greatly increasing Hoover's popularity among us by making Texas 'cowboy' attacks on the President. Of course Garner would like to be President of the United States, and we do not blame any man for that. But he will have to do something besides cheap knocking at Hoover.
"You will notice that there is neither logic nor statesmanship in Garner's talk; it is all just blah-blah-blah, and more blah. Of course there is a sort of breezy exhilation of the Texas 'bully' in his language—good on the vaudeville stage and in the Western 'thrillers' of the talking screen—but the sort of stuff that won't be worth 4 cents in 4 yaers in the administration of affairs in Washington. The hard-boiled gang that usually runs affairs there can easily checkmate any bull yf from anywhere. The fellow who would cuss, and rant and talk big, would be the easiest one for them to discredit and make ridiculous."
In a concluding statement, Mr. Pickens offered the Republican National Committee the following tip: If you want to save expenses in electing Hoover, manage somehow to get the Democrats to nominate Garner, or at least to send him in to every county of every State to make speeches and do his cowboy stuff. He'll make the choice of the electors easy.
FRANCES JOHNSON TURNS SIX
Little Miss Frances Johnson was the lady of the hour and a charming hostess last Wednesday from five to eight at a party in honor of her sixth birthday. The party was at the home of her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. John A. Lankford 1750 S street, northwest. The color scheme was pink and green and Frances wore a lovely frock of green geogette wi a pink bow on the shoulder and pink hair ribbon. The dining room was attractively decorated with pink and green crepe paper, balloons and favors.
五 children came from Alexandria to attend the party; they were: Alma Norma Murray, Nancy Durant, Oswald Durant, jr., Julian Lyles, jr., and Hubert Lyles. The other children present were Rachael Compton, Caroline, Howard, Yvonne Smith, Barbara Madden, Nadine Harris, C.roline Taylor, Francis Brown, Barbara Scott, Louise Arrington, Jeanne Ackiss, Barbara Rogers, Beryl Claytor, Ellen Mundray, Evelyn Mundray, Mae Sorrell, Mae Hopkin, Harriet Clark, Evelyn Stevenson, Elizabeth Stevenson, Mildred Moon, Ethel Whale, Dorothea Whale, Noel Compton, Harold Clark, Chas Fisher, jr., Elmer Fisher, Frazier Miller, jr., John Franklin, jr. Reeves Franklin, Novarro Madden Carnot Evans, Juan Mundray, Pau Scott, Richard Claytor, Wilbu Scott, Lee Sorrell, Norman Harris jr., William Patterson and John Patterson, jr.
Ideas for Dining Rooms

HERE'S a saying among interior decorators that dining rooms are always the hardest rooms to plan. That's because there is not much chance for originality in the arrangement of the furniture How many dining rooms look almost alike! A table in the center of the room—chairs stiffly set in rows—a sideboard, a serving table and perhaps a china cupboard primarily placed against the wall.
If the homemaker can create an atmosphere of leisure and comfort—a "lived-in" aspect for her dining room—she has helped to make this difficult room charming. Many of the best interior decorators are now using an occasional cozy upholstered chair in the dining room and sometimes even a sofa. If there is a bay window, or any broad expanse of windows, a charming setting of small table and chairs may be placed there for breakfast use. Or two comfortable chairs with a little table for smoking accessories may be arranged by these windows—a delightful spot for the "man of the house" to read his morning paper!
Another new style note in the furnishing of dining rooms is the use of assembled furniture instead of sets or salutes. Many dining sets at period inspiration are, of course, far too lovely to resist. Yet it is
Ben Davis Resigns State Republican Job

"Y" GIRLS ATTACK DISCRIMINATION
"Y" GIRLS ATTACK DISCRIMINATION
MILWAUKEE, Wis. (Bv ANP)
—A frontal assault on hotel discrimination was made here last week when two members of the Chicago delegation to the mid-winter conference of business and professional women of the Young Women's Christian Association were denied accommodations at the Hotel Martin.
There were 385 girls present, representing branches in Illinois and Wisconsin.
The two girls who were denied accommodations were Miss Ruth Tolmaire and Miss Ocena B. Marshall who represented the South Parkway branch of Chicago. Miss Tolmaire is president of the Chicago Women's Commercial club and Miss Marshall, publicity director.
Miss Tolmaire and Miss Marshall brought to the attention of the conference officials the humiliating practice of hotels in cities where such meetings are held and made strong plea that the issue of hotel discrimination be threshed out. They received the whole-hearted support of the Chicago delegation and their following recommendation presented by them was adopted with an uproar of applause:
"In order that the business and professional women's department of the Young Women's Christian Association maintain its standards of equal relationship among its members, the Chicago delegation wishes to recommend to future midwinter conference committees that they take into consideration that colored delegates attend all conferences, and that they make sure these girls be accommodated with other delegates without discrimination."
Mrs. C. J. Calloway Dies
TUSKEEGE INSTITUTE, Ala.
(ANP)—Mrs. C. J. Calloway, wife of Prof. C. J. Calloway, head of rural school extensio nservate at Tuskegee Institute, died Sunday morning at 10:35, after a stroke of paralysis which had followed hard upon a severe attack of acute indigestion that had caused her to be removed on Thursday from her home in Tuskegee to the institute hospital.
She is survived by her husband and his family. Funeral services were held in the institute chapel on Tuesday.
BEA'MONDE BRIDGE CLUB
ENTERTAINS AT HARRISON'S
The Beaumonde Bridge Club entertained with Mrs. Clarna M. Taylor at luncheon and bridge at Harrison's Cafe, Tuesday. Members present were Mesdames: W. W. Horad, R. Jackson, H. Piondexter, Henry Banks, Brady D. Price, H. S. Thomas, John Houser, Hugh Kicksey and Mary Taylor. Highest scores were made by Mesdames Poindexter Thomas, Price and Banks.
thoroughly correct to use pieces which do not match but whose design has some similarity of feeling. Chairs of two or even three styles are often charmingly grouped around a table. The sideboard, serving table and china cupboards need not match, providing they look harmonious together. This plan of assembling furniture helps to relieve the monotony of the dining room—and it also has the allure of economy, in case there are good old pieces which may be sympathetically grouped with new ones.
One of the most important elements of charm in the dining room is the beauty of wood surfaces. The table, waxed to a satiny sheen, is, of course, the center of decorative interest in the room. Now that table runners and dollies of delicate lace and linen are so much in vogue, the regular waxing of the wood to protect it from heat marks and water rings is more important than ever before. Chair rungs—on which unruly feet will insist upon propping themselves—may also be protected from mars and scratches by an occasional waxing.
The rug in the dining room may have a larger pattern than is sometimes suitable for other rooms, because the table obscures so much of the design. This room is an ideal place for the cheer and fresh beauty that growing plants supply. Colorful china, pewter or burnished copper will add a gracious charm to the informal dining room.
MOTHER MOONEY TO SPEAK HERE FRIDAY NIGHT
Mother Mooney, mother of Tom Mooney, famous labor leader, will speak in Washington. Friday night at a mass meeting under the auspices of the International Labor Defense. This meeting will demand the release of Tom Mooney, the nine Scotsboro boys, and the frame-up victims in Harlan, Kentucky.
Mrs. Mooney is brought to Washington under the auspices of the International Labor Defense, the organization defending the Scottsboro boys. While she is here she will seek an audience with the Persident to ask the release of her son. Mooney has been in jail for fifteen years, serving time for a crime he never committed. Countless investigations have clearly demonstrated Mooney's innocence, but the corrupt government of California refuses to fre this victim of boss-class justice, even as the corrupt Alabama courts have convicted the innocent Scottsboro boys. A large group of representatives from many working-class organizations greeted Mother Mooney on her arrival in Washington Thursday night.
The International Labor Defense urges all workers, Negro and white, to attend the mass meetings Friday night, March 4, 8:30 p.m. in the Arcade Hall at Fourteenth and Park road, in order to protest the frame-up of Mooney and the Scottsboro boys.

Artists appearing on the program were Maude Smothers, soprano; J. Stanley Brooks, tenor; and Jessie V. Holloman, pianist. Accompanists were Grace Skinner, Florence Brooks Porter, and Pearl Lindsey. The program also included several selections by the Masonic String Ensemble.
FUNNY FEET
By Dr. Adolphus W. Anderson
President, Asso. Chiropodists of America
Not all of the comedians on the stage are the ones who tell funny stories and who make funny faces. Audiences derive as much amusement from a comedy dancer or a person who manipulates his feet in a new and unusual way.
Just the sight of the shifting pair of Bert Williams' feet was sufficient inducement for laughter, even for a hardened pessimist.
Though he could not dance, Charlie Chaplin's feet were the basis of his reputation as a scream. A flash of a close-up of his feet occasioned as much boisterous laughter as did any other part of his performance.
Leon Errol gained his fame for his ability to do such extraordinary tricks with his feet.
It possibly may be that the fact that years of training are required to make one's feet do these funny stunts, is the reason for such an appreciative reception. On the other hand, it may be that the inability of the average person to do the same, is the reason. A recognized fact, nevertheless, is that everyone knows such feet, though funny, are the result of constant care and attention. Visit your chiropodist regularly so that you may not, unconsciously and unwillingly, be a comedian to the world, by having funny feet and a funny gait because of painful feet.

Bishop Hamlet Says Church Should Teach Negro To Live As Well As Die
TULSA, Okla.—(ANP)—Speak ing before the Oklahoma Winter Council of Ministers, and lay workers of the C.M.E. Church at Christ's Temple here Wednesday Bishop J. Arthur Hamlet, Kansas City, Kansas, declared "If the church will tell the people the right thing, they need not fear death nor anything else as they will be ready for anything that comes. The church should follow the example set by Jesus Christ and preach life abundant and plentiful. We need to get ready to live and die and everything else will take care of itself.
"We need more of life and less of death in our messages. We must safeguard the hereafter but that comes through safeguarding the here. The church has come to that stage where if it is to survive, relieve suffering, and give encouragement, it must say something other than get ready to die to the people in these distressing days."
Tabernacle Baptist
"Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." St. John 3:3. Just as Christ taught Nicodemus in the above verse, Rev. C. S. Wilkins, of Pennsylvania, instructed the congregation on last Sunday morning concerning the necessity of regeneration. The congregation appreciated the various historical references which Rev. Wilkins used in developing his theme.
On next Sunday afternoon at 3:30 p.m., the Flower Club directed by Mrs. Willie Carvin is presenting Rev. Charles Johnson and his choir of Capital View Baptist Church.
The church and community deeply regrets to learn of its pastor's illness. We sincerely hope that Rev. Bradshaw will recover speedily.

THE UNPLOYMENT COMMITTEE
The printed report of the Unemployment Committee made public two weeks ago has provoked much favorable comment.
The committee, with S. W. Rutherford as chairman, has organized for active service and will meet twice a month to further its program, which includes an educational campaign with the view of getting the Negroes of Washington to unite in a real effort to get more and better jobs for colored people of the District.
There are other organizations hitting and missing at the same object. The thing for them to do to be more effective could be for them to unite in their effort and co-operate with each other in concentrating on the big idea of securing more work for colored people.
The N.A.A.C.P. has a committee trying to put over a program. The college women are interested in projecting a program for more jobs. A small group of business men has held one or two meetings on the subject.
The Unemployment Committee has made a fair survey of conditions here and is in better trim for a real service than any of the rest. All should get together and help put over a united program of education for unity of purpose. How can these groups suggest unity of purpose when they are acting separately?
A USELESS MURDER
murder may be accidental. But the murder of Anton L. Eleventh and T streets, northwest, most useless, ruthless and brutal: District of Columbia. Had conducted his store on the years. He was beloved and met with a humane heart and new aim for a favor but that it wares to the people in the new store whenever hard times hit through their periods of unemplored to hundreds of people overness at Eleventh and T streets. NE condemns crime and criminals for swift and sure justice. He has been ruthlessly murdering citizens demand protection.
COMMON HONESTY HAS FAILED
On honesty and common deceitings of this cultural, Christian asked with impunity in every practicing deception in so many habit. Children are taught easy justice deception in the home. High their school training, and good and womanhood it has a training does not penetrate the honesty and deception in high law has been the source of than any other one thing in the then advocated by the church for not these people parties honesty and deception growing up?
The President of these United man jobless citizens who are fined he advocated the loan of $2 corporations and denying assistance need of food and raiment? Officials of the National Benefit the Insurance Commissioner oust with policyholders of this commissioner and the officials, our company since 1926? Does it these days?
Howard University payroll card University favorably imp officials in this case? Or, if owed in a minor theft, what effect of the student's case? Being from Howard University was more common honesty and, would not the divorce come? It is the lack of common imposed Christian country the world. It is also the highest.
We do to get back to the con-
Will the home join with the way to train the future citizens of truth and honesty? Not look to our present leader they have fallen in common hard critical and young America never honesty of leaders is in all need to stage a comeback.
Sometimes murder may be accidental, provoked, and even necessary. But the murder of Anton Ruppert, the groceryman at Eleventh and T streets, northwest, by holdup men was one of the most useless, ruthless and brutal murders ever committed in the District of Columbia.
This man had conducted his store on that corner for a long period of years. He was beloved and respected because he was a man with a humane heart and never a man or woman went to him for a favor but that it was granted. He furnished his wares to the people in the neighborhood contiguous to his store whenever hard times hit them. He carried them through their periods of unemployment. He was a real benefactor to hundreds of people over his long period of years in business at Eleventh and T streets.
The TRIBUNE condemns crime and criminals at all times, and we are anxious for swift and sure justice in this case. An innocent man has been ruthlessly murdered, and the good name of law-abiding citizens demand protection and swift punishment.
COMMON HONESTY HAS FAILED
Has common honesty and common decency fallen down among human beings of this cultural, Christian nation? This question can be asked with impunity in every walk of life.
We are practicing deception in so many ways until it has become a habit. Children are taught early to tell falsehoods and practice deception in the home. They carry this deception through their school training, and by the time they arrive at manhood and womanhood it has become a habit. Even college training does not penetrate the armor of deception.
We find dishonesty and deception in high and low places. Our prohibition law has been the source of more dishonesty and deception than any other thing in this country. And this law has been advocated by the church folks for the past fifty years. Are not these people parties eps crimni in the resulting dishonesty and deception growing out of the evading of this law?
Has not the President of these United States failed his fellow American jobless citizens who are facing starvation and death when he advocated the loan of $2,000,000,000 for large soulless corporations and denying assistance to the millions directly in need of food and raiment?
Were the officials of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company and the Insurance Commissioner of the District of Columbia honest with policyholders of this company when they, the Commissioner and the officials, concealed the insolvency of the company since 1926? Does common honesty mean anything these days?
Take the Howard University payroll case. Are the students of Howard University favorably impressed with the honesty of the officials in this case? Or, if one of them should be apprehended in a minor theft, what effect would it have on the disposition of the student's case? Is there common honesty eminating from Howard University?
If there was more common honesty and less deception in married life, would not the divorce courts have fewer cases before them? It is the lack of common honesty that makes this supposed Christian country the greatest divorce nation in the world. It is also the highest in crimes committed.
What can we do to get back to the common honesty of a century ago? Will the home join with the school and the church and try to train the future citizens in the fundamental principals of truth and honesty?
We can not look to our present leaders and officials. One by one they have fallen in common honesty until the public today is critical and young America is cynical whenever and wherever honesty of leaders is in question. They have failed and all need to stage a comeback if they can.

FOOLISH ECONOMY
Despite the intense national campaign of restoring prosperity through various means of advertising, propaganda it is quite noticeable that in all parts of America, particularly in the large centers, employees are being laid off in droves.
In the various governmental units, local, state and federal, the same situation exists and for one race it is spelling tragedy and as the results are carefully tabulated we find that the number of our workers being discharged are entirely oit of proportion either to the number employed or the total number discharged.
Some of these discharges are the inevitable result of administration changes and it may be, in time, that the additional number given employment will offset the losses. However, the majority are being laid off purely as an economy measure.
We do not argue that either a private or a governmental organization should maintain a payroll of non-workers. If there is work to be done, and surely there is, it would seem much wiser and certainly more equitable, to make a readjustment of the working hours, dividing the work among many, rather than to concentrate it in a few.
With the advanced strides we have made in a theoretical civilization our workers have wonderful opportunity to utilize their leisure in
KELLY MILLER SAYS:
RADICALISM OF YESTERDAY AND TO-DAY.
When the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was formed twenty years ago, it was regarded as a radical organization to off-set the conservatism of Booker T. Washington. The Tuskegee doctrine, at that time, held sway over the mind and imagination of the American people, white and black. The new movement stood for agitation for immediate fulfillment of the tenets of democracy as contrasted with the slow, long-suffering constructive program of Hampton and Tuskegee. And yet the new movement merely emphasized he fulfillment of the law but never once advised its overthrow. Insistence on the observance of the 14th and 15th amendment is no more radicalism than insistence on the fulfillment of the 18th. Booker Washington died. His philosophy continues by sheer force of its own inertia, unaccelerated by his dynamic personality. The World War came and went. Instead of being a war for democracy, as Woodrow Wilson declared it to be, it was the means of weakening the democratic spirit throughout the world. The word in its place and meaning in the lexicon of Germany, France, Italy, Russia, Japan, England, and even in the United States, Economic dictatorship now rules the world. The eighteenth century doctrine of the rights of man is no longer proclaimed from the halls of Congress or preached from pulpits or platform. The enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments is no longer understood to be the serious purpose of the government. The N.A.A.C.P. s about the only voice which seriously hopes to revive "the lost cause." They have piped to Presidents Harding, Coolidge and Hoover, but they do not dance. The so called "new Negro" does not look for redemption in that direction. Insead of hoping for a return of the old political regime, he rather expects a radical change in the economic order. The N.A.A.C.P. today stands as a conservative body motivated mainly by the dead hand of the past. It is declaiming for the enforcement of law, which everybody accepts in principle but nobody but the Negro expects to see put in practice. The present day radicals all conservatives came to grips at Scottboro. Even the Bourbon whites of Alabama were with the conservative N.A.A.C.P. as contrasted with the radical Communists. All Negroes are now radicals in the sense of the erstwhile militant organization, battling for their legal rights, while none but ones are radical as interpreted by ejusmodus sapi qui purus sagea qui the reds.
The N.A.A.A.G.P. has lost much of the dynamic power derived from its eraslite reputation for radicalism. It now relies chiefly upon seizing upon dramatic instances of violation of law and in holding the courts to regular legal procedure. This is to me Conservatism. I read somewhere in the press that President Spingarn in a recent address before the Twentieth Century Club of Boston, declared that his organization was about to launch a new policy which would involve economic as we' as political doctrine. The fulfillment of this declaration of intention is anxiously awaited. As matters now stand there are no genuine economic radicals except the impossible and the irresponsible ones who have fanatical fringe.
either enjoying their present comforts of life or in preparing themselves: to qualify for still greater emoluments, providing that the work of the nation is so equalized to insure each having a proportionate share. Looking at things from a purely capitalistic standpoint it is, or would seem, much more profitable to maintain a general and equitable condition of prosperity than to make paupers of the many and bring untold riches to the few. It is to break away from unwise conditions that our present-day economists should provide for.
In checking over the earnings and production of a number of the largest companies in the country for the past two years we find a great many who have steadfastly refused to either lay off any of their employees ar to reduce their wages, and surprising as it may seem, their earnings have been even greater. Why? They recognized a cardinal responsibility of management and while business fell off in their own lie they sought other methods of utilizing the services of their employees and plants. In other words they found it profitable to create work instead of trying to unwisely economize by laying off employees because of a retrenchment in their ff. merely standardized lines.
There is plenty of idle capital and no doubt about the available labor supply. It would be good economy to spend more for good and better management in order to put both capital and labor to work.
the N.A.A.C.P. has become as conservative as the Y.M.C.A. Indeed, the Urban League, the N.A.A.C.P. and the Y.M.C.A. might as well be consolidated into a single organization for the advancement of Colored people so far as aim and method are concerned. The first wants the law enforced, the second wants the Negro to be good and obey the law, while the third wants him to have economic and industrial opportunity. These are all parts of a conservative program.
The Negro mass is sluggish and inert. It requires some constantly stimulating force to urge it forward. Any form of radicalism which threatens disruption of existing order would be suicidal. The imported radicalism of the reds would be treason against his land and country. And yet without something of a stirring nature is brought to play upon him, he sinks into inactivity and sloth. He is now at the depth of racial depression. Not a single progressive and stimulating motive spurs his lethargic energies. The industrialism of Booker T. Washington quickened him for a while. The bizarre movement of Marcus Garvey aroused him for a moment. The N.A.C.P. starts and stirs him only momentarily when some tragic happenening occurs. But it makes no lasting appeal to his imagination. Ordinarily the people have a right to look to the youthful intelligence for the stimulation of the masses. Mens agitat molem. But our college fraternities in biennial section, meet, dine, dance and adjourn. They are engrossed in literary activity and in research work in chemistry, physics and biology while the masses may go hang. There is a dearth of agitation in a sane constructive direction. In politics, education, religion, and social polity we are just about where Fred Douglass and Booker T. Washington left us. Who will take the next step?

ELIMINATING DISEASE
During the past generation experiences indicate that under highly efficient control certain diseases may show reduced death rates about as follows:
Typhoid fever, 75%; Diarrheal diseases 90%; Smallpox 100% Measles, 50%; Scarlet fever, 50%; Diphtheria, 100%; Tuberculosis, 50%; Pneumonia and Bronchial diseases, 25%.
These figures are given only for illustrative purposes and may not fit closely conditions for some localities.
Life capital is the greatest asset of this or any country. Economists state this in dollars taken at a given age as the current worth of the total earning capacity of the average person in excess of expenditures required for him. I shall not resort at this time to any such cold-blooded figures because it is sufficient here to say that human life is well worth saving and prolonging. We may well ask what does such a program of procedure mean. It means the teaching to the masses the importance of public and personal hygiene. It involves the continued support with more adequate funds for health departments particularly for cities, counties and towns so that protection against loss of human lives may secure commauu

"THE BOOK OF FRANCOIS VILLON"
(International Pocket Library—Boston, Massachusetts)
Boston, massachusetts
This volume is provided with an introductory essay by H. DeVere Stapcoole, in which we learn that one Francis des Loges was adopted by Guillamme Villon, a chaplain of St. Benoist. Francis Villon, the adopted son, grew up to become a ga, young blade around Paris and in the year 1456 he struck and killed a priest and was exiled for life.
Spending his life in prison Villon found it necessary to express himself and this he did in verse. On nearly every conceivable subject he wrote a ballad and through the centuries these ballads have come down to us and today Villon is recognized as one of the great poets of France.
As a realist undoubtedly Villon was one or the earliest. For expressing unvarnished truths he was exceptionally clear. In the dungeon of the prison, where he was confined, he thinks of his past and for each c-quest, each love affair, each acquaintance, in fact for each happening of his life he writes a striking ballad.
At one time in his prison career he thought he was to be hung along with some other culprits and this thought provided an occasion to write an appealing ballad for mercy, on their souls, and was written as an epitaph, although Villon escaped the hangman's noose.
In all there are twenty-two ballads and to me they are particularly interesting for the thoughts of Villon in prison nearly five hundred years ago were similar to a great many who find themselves in prison.

"LEE, THE SOUL OF HONOR"
"Lee, The Soul of Honor" By John E. Hobeika, is a book written for those who still stand for "a noble vindication of the cause of the South." There are those who like to know both sies of a question and this book presents to Negro readers a queer insight into human nature. It is claimed by the publishers that "To all who love the South, this volume will become a treasure greatly prized, for the author, brings to his work a biographer and historian a depth of insight and sympathy with his subject that gives to the reader the inspiration of a personal contact: so that one arises from reading this thrilling book with the feeling that he has lived with Lee in the great events that made him a leader of his people, and spoken with him in the supreme hours, when his strong soul made history.
"The author's devotion to this hero who so holds him in thralt that he has given us back the innermost" life of Lee, can only be understood if one knows some facts about this remarkable man, John E. Hobeika:
"A Syrian lad of eleven is driven from the land of his birth by the terrible Turk. Leaving the land which bore the human foot-prints of the Man of Galilee, this lad came to America, to find here the one whose life was nearly patterned after the Galilee than any other in history, Lee, the Virginian."
It is interesting to imagine a persecuted Syrian coming to America and selecting Lee, whose idea was to hold a race of people in bondage, as a man "the Soul of Honor."
The book is published by the Christopher Publishing House, Boston, and sells for $2.50.

But its application means, as already stated, that funds must be provided to put into practical efficient operation the teachings of public health workers.
There is every reason to believe will continue in the future in a that the saving of human lives very substantial way. Such accomplishments will depend essentially upon the appreciation by the public of the importance of the public health movement. The results will pro-rate with the support which is given to the requests for funds by the various agencies having this work in hand and who by their daly work are able to prove that public health is purchasable.

OUR MAIL
DR. WESLEY CORRECTED.
Editor, Tribune:
Dr. Wesley who furnished us with an article last week through your columns on "Negro Leaders in Washington's Era," could not possibly think or write them all. He did write extensively of churchmen who lived in that day and might have carried his resume to more important and direct events; however, that is a matter of the writer's preference and bias.
As he mentioned the Zion Church, I want to set him right about historic facts and I also desire to give the name of a real hero of the Revolution, whose activities ante dated and is more distinctly connected with the Revolutionary period than all or any he did mention.
He is the first Bethel preacher who ever gave Zion priority date of establishment over all independent Negro Methodists in this country, which is true, yet we cannot permit him to give the wrong date, even of our early origin, for our priority is established without the necessity of accepting dates that are not correct.
He says, "I<sub>n</sub> New York City James Varick in 1784 established the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church." This was before Richard Allen is reported to have formed a membership for the Episcopal Church. There are three errors in this record. Instead of 1784 it was 1796. It was not James Varick who was our special founder, he as one of nine men first mentioned in our history as having begun our government. We have founders not founder. We call our church the "Church of Varick" because he was our first Bishop. The third error is that we established an "African Methodist Episcopal Church, called Zion" and were the first on this Western Hemisphere to so incorporate under this title in 1799.
Now as to a more direct hero of the Revolutionary era, appears the name of Peter Williams, who was one of the founders, not only of Zion Church, but of the white Methodism in New York City, and therefore in this country. Peter Williams was converted in the infancy of Methodism 1796 under the first preacher of Methodism, Phillip Embury in New York, the recognized mother-city of all Methodism. He belonged to a British subject, who, when the Revolutionary war broke out, left to join England's army and Williams was bought as a slave by the trustees of Wesley Chapel from him, and worked in the church as sexton and bought himself back to freedom from them in 1783. He knew and entertained him in his home, who fought with General Braddock Captain Webb of the British army at Pittsburgh and was at the capture of Quebec.
During a part of the Revolutionary war he lived with a family by the name of Durham in New Brunswick, New Jersey. The British soldiers came to the home in search of one Mr. Chapman who had hidden from them. Peter Williams informed the British officer leading the soldiers that Mr. Chapman was not there. "The British officer drew his sword and waved it over Peter's head, threatening to kill him and told him he would run his sword through him if he did not tell were his master was." He would not tell. "Then the officer took out a purse of gold, threw it at Peter's feet, and said: 'That gold is yours, if you tell me where your master is.' Peter said he did not now; the officers left the house, the master came out of his hiding. Peter could not be frightened by the sword nor corrupted by British gold."
This man, Peter Williams, in the very heat of the Revolution, in contact with the soldiers, was one of the founders of the "African Methodist Episcopal call Zion Church in 1796.

trical charge on its surface.
Promptly any other particle, oppositely charged, is attracted to it once they get in electro-magnetic range of each other. Two particles of dust, occupying about the same area in space as one speck did formerly, usually fall to the floor, where they roll about collect. ing further stray particles until their magnetic charges are neutralised. By this time there is quite a bunch of them and inevitably they roll under the bed, blown there by passing air currents.
"The phenomena is quite apart from the quiet settling of fine particles, according to Stoke's law, which causes the ordinary layer of dust." Dr. Alexander reports in the current issue of Science. "That horror of efficient housewives, known in New England as "housemoss," appears to consist of a fluffy mat of adventitious fibers (cotton, wool, linen, silk), whose electrostatically active surfaces aid in holding them together and in fixing on them other kinds of dust particles."

Lincoln Day Republican orators and spell-binders all over the country fired the opening guns for President Hoover's campaign for re-election to the presidency with loud, long laudations of the master executive's efficiency in the administration of national affairs from the White House. They pointed with pride to the President's fair and unbiased selection of the ablest and most competent men in the country to serve on his various commissions, ignoring party lines and political differences in his determination to enlist the best brains and ability which the country affords to deal with pressing problems of the day. Close on the heels of the paens of praise from Republican Lincoln Day orators, and as if to give further evidence of the President's ignoring of party lines to get the best men available for the country's service, it was announced from the White House Monday that Chief Justice Cardozo of the New York State Supreme Court, a Democrat, had been selected to fill the vacancy on the U. S. Supreme Court bench made by the resignation of the venerable Justice Olive Wendell Holmes.
On the face of it, this latest Hoover appointment, may seem to substantiate the claim of the pro-Hoover Republicans, that the master executive ignores political con-

And all the land of America are proud of his great fame—
You have heard of the victories that he has won,

A glorious nation, and may it live long;
He gave good services when his country was in need—
A true patriot was he indeed.

WORK AND IDLENESS
Ethel and Pearl were two daughters of a very good friend of mine. Both attended junior high school and were very beautiful children. One evening I went over to see Mrs. Jones, their mother and I arrived, fortunately, just in time to see them at the table studying. "Come in the parlor." Mrs. Johnson invited. "The girls are getting their lessons and I have so much to tell you." "My, what lovely sisters; so intelligent looking and industrious," I thought as I glanced into the other room.
I had hardly been there fifteen minutes when I heard Pearl say, "Ethel, why don't you come on and study? Every night you idle your time away and the next day I am worried sick by you asking me questions." The other girl replied angrily, "Mind your own business. If I am idle let me be so. All you want to do is to be the teacher's pet." Mrs. Johnson excused herself and very much embarrassed went into the next room and quieted the sisters.
So it was for many months in their home. Always Pearl studied while Ethel played, slept, or quarreled. Then when time came to graduate, Pearl graduated, leaving Ethel one year behind her. She went to college and came home only on holidays. Poor Ethel, I truly felt sorry for her, but she got exactly what she deserved. Now I think she began to realize her mistake.
On Thanksgiving, a year from this time I invited the Johnson's over to dinner and Pearl came. I was more than glad to see her, as I wanted to learn her idea of college chat. "Mrs. Grant," she said, "I think college is wonderful. Our race as a whole has truly a need for as many educated men and women as possible. In coming years we shall begin progressing more and more as our people have learned the true necessity of an education. So I am going to finish college and try to be one of those to help it progress and no one to pull it back."
"Oh, you're still the same. Always bragging on what you are going to do." Ethel argued.
"Now, dear, remember we are not home and anyway, Ethel, stop gravating your sister," admonished her mother.
As the years passed on Pearl proved her speech true. She finished college and received a posi-

Justice Cardozo is a Jew, all well as a Democrat, and his apt pointment is expected to incline with favor the Jewish vote on New York as well as of the countr try at large to Mr. Hoover's bide for a second term in the White House.

Secretary Denies He Was Instigator of Articles In Newspapers
A stormy session in which resolutions were adopted asking the Board of Trustees of Howard University to appoint a committee of the board to conduct an impartial investigation to restore tranquility at the university and the denial by the alumni secretary, Linwood G.

3. That only paid up members of the alumni association be allowed to vote either in the primary or the general election.
4. That all ballots be unsigned, but the name of each voter shall be placed in his own hand-writing on the outside of the envelope containing his ballot.
A letter was submitted by Dean Miller which he had sent to the President of the University urging that the name of Dean Lucy Slowe will be placed on one of the new girl's dormitories in her honor because of her splendid service in selecting the present site on which they are built as well as being the originator of the plan to have a group of dormitories for girls and pushing the entire matter to a successful conclusion.
The report of the Alumni Secretary covered his visits to other alumni clubs and his efforts to raise money through them.

590 PERSONS DIED OF TUBERCULOSIS HERE IN 1931
Of the 580 persons known to have died of tuberculosis during the past year in Washington, according to a statement made public by Dr. Viola P. Anderson, secretary of the Association for the Prevention of Tuberculosis and Medical director of the Children's Clinic, at least 205 of them were not in a hospital at the time of their death. Of the remaining 385 who died in hospitals, the reports -how that a large proportion were in an advanced stage of the disease before entering the hospital, and many of them were hospitalized only a short time before their death.
"This outstanding fact, based on the official record," said Dr. Anderson, "emphasizes the consideration as to what may happen when a person having an active case of tuberculosis remains in the home in daily contact with other members of the family, and usually without adequate care, or when a uberculous person still able to work mingles daily with other people in his place of work. Our home visiting staff of health workers and nurses are constantly finding families in which one or more of the children are thus in daily contact with some adult person in an advanced stage of tuberculosis. Almost invariably one or more of the children upon examination at the Children's Clinic are found to be infected with the disease to some extent.
"There is on record one family in which the fath having an advanced case of tuberculosis was found to have a wife showing positive reaction to the tuberculin test, a three-year-old son and one-year-old baby, both with signs of juvenile tuberculosis, while a two-year-old boy had died of tuberculous meningitis.
"Among the many families under advice and care of visitors are frequently found situations of a most distressing character, as for example, a family of six, found in 1929 with an open case of tuberculosis, and five chil en all infected. By 1931, three of these children had died. In another family composed of parents and three children, in which one of the parents had tuberculosis, two of the children showed suspicious signs of infection in 1929, but by 1931 all three of the children were infected, and one was in a bad stage of pulmonary tuberculosis.

Objected When Man Threatened To Beat His Cousin At Speakeasy
Frank Nathaniel White, 30, 1700 block First street, northwest, was fatally wounded Sunday night at an alleged speakeasy on Virginia avenue, southwest. William Arthur Webb was held for the action of the grand jury following an inquest at the District Morgue Wednesday afternoon.

Others to testify, were Mary Taylor, 600 block Third street; Gladys Thistle and Josephine King, 300 block Virginia avenue, all visitors at the house and friends of Mary Frazier.

VERITABLE ARMY OF JOBLESS MEN FED BY CHURCHES
John Wesley Feeds Them On Wednesdays & Metropolitan On Fridays
Always proving their worth in the time of need, two churches in the city are feeding hundreds of jobsless and hungry men each week in an effort to relieve distress among the unemployed. A veritable army of jobless men, young and old, colored and white, and of all creeds, filed into the John Wesley A.M.E. Zion Church, Fourteenth and Corcoran streets, northwest, Wednesday noon, as guests of the church at a dinner for the unemployed.
Each week since the first Wednesday in February the church has offered a free meal for the distressed. During the past month over 400 were fed and in all probability a much greater number will be given aid during the present month. The practice was started by the Men's Bible Class of the church under the direction of Rev. Henry D. Tillman, pastor. Volunteer workers in the church aid in the preparation of the food and the feeding of the jobless men each week. Wednesday's dinner consisted of hot beef stew, corn bread and coffee. Prior to the actual feeding of the group, a song and prayer service led by Rev. Tillman is conducted each day. During the present month, Rev. W. Frederic Fisher, and his gospel party from Evanston, Ill., are conducting a daily noon-day revival service at the church. Weekly messages are given the unemployed men.
A similar service to the unemployed has been conducted at the Metropolitan A.M.E. Church, M street between Fifteenth and Sixteenth, northwest, for the past month. Over 500 men are fed at the latter church each week. Rev. W. H. Thomas, is the pastor of this church
