Teacher Who Used $472 Suspended For Six Months
CAPITAL WEEKLY
SHERIFF
SCHOOL BOARD
SUSPENDS MRS.
M. S. SHIPPEN
Irs. Shippen Used Milk Fund For Personal Use.
Refunded The $472.54
The Board of Education at a
meeting, Wednesday, suspended
Irs. M. S. Shippen, a teacher at
the Garrison School, until September
1, 1932, for using the children's milk fund for her personal benefit.
the amount involved was $472.54 which Mrs. Shippen paid March 1. After the vote passed to suspend ms. Shippen, Rev. F. I. A. Bennett recalled a white janitor having been dismissed for misappropriating school funds. He offered a moon to reconsider his case and present it to the personnel committee. his was passed. Rev. Bennett did he asked no favors for one at could not be given to another. The following report was made the board in the Shippen case: To the Board of Education of the District of Columbia. Ladies and Gentlemen: At the meeting of the Board of Education on Friday, March 4, 1932, Mrs. M. S. Shippen was suspended, and her case was referred to the Committee on Personnel for investigation and report.
On Friday, March 11, 1932, the committee on Personnel met at 3 o'clock. In addition to the committee, there were present: of the Board, Dr. Bennett; of the officers, Dr. Ballou, Dr. Kramer and Mr. Wilkinson. Mrs. Shippen was accompanied by a friend, Mr. George Hayes, an attorney, but who acted in the capacity of a friend only, and her minister, Rev. Mr. Christian. Also present were Miss Mineola Kirkland, Miss V. E. Chase, Mrs. I. W. Tyler, and Mrs. J. W. Shaw.
Mrs. M. S. Shippen, a teacher in the Garrison School, had been custodian of the milk fund of the children since February, 1931. Since September, 1319, she collected the milk fund, but according to her own admission appropriated it for her own uses. This situation was disclosed on February 12, 1932, by the presentation of a bill to the new principal of the school by a representative of the dairy. On March 1, 1932, Mrs. Shippen made full restitution of the money, $472.54, and all accounts are now in order.
Your committee is of the opinion that the admitted acts of Mrs. Shippen are ordinarily cause for dismissal. A teacher who appropriates money collected from children for milk would seem to have no place in a school system and her usefulness as a guide of children to be at an end. The investigation of the committee ought out, however, several extenating circumstances in addition to the fact that the money had been repaid. Acute illness in the immediate family of Mrs. Shippen, necessitating her financial help as well as apparent laxity in the management of the milk fund in the Garrison School, not due entirely to Mrs. Shippen, made the case unusual. The testimony of all connected with Mrs. Shippen in school work was uniformly to the effect that she was conscientious, able, and that she was and is respected by the teachers and the children alike.
In view of the foregoing facts, therefore, your committee recommends that Mrs. Shippen be officially reprimanded and that her suspension be continued until September 1, 1932.

SCOTT WELCOMES PROBE OF OFFICE AT UNIVERSITY
The move by the board of trustees of Howard University to begin a sweeping investigation into the university was seen by close interests of the institution as a direct break between the president and the secretary-treasurer. The decision of the board was reached Monday, at a special meeting held at the Prince George Hotel, Twenty-eighth street and Fifth avenue, New York City. The only official release sent out from the university was signed by Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer. The statement follows:
"Be it resolved, that the chairman of the board appoint a committee of five trustees who shall select a disinterested person, or agency, for the purpose of ascertaining and reporting to the board all the facts regarding the organization and operation of Howard University.
"Resolved, that the committee report its recommendations with the expense involved at the next annual meeting of the board, which will be held April 12, 1932." General John H. Sherburne, of Boston, chairman of the board, appointed the following committee: Dr. Abraham Flexner, New York; George W. Crawford, New Haven, Conn.; Dr. Peter Marshall Murray, New York; Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, New York; and Dr. Sara W. Brown, Washington.
The meeting of the trustees and the resolution to investigate the "organization and operation of Howard University" came on the heels of a resolution introduced by Representative Hall to conduct a probe into the affairs of the institution. The resolution introduced by the Mississippi representative pointed out a "spirit of unrest and educational turmoil" at the school. In his bill Representative Hall called attention to the "exact manner in which, with what degree of fairness, prudence, and economy, the president and trustees of the university have administered and expended the public funds of the university" and an investigation into the pay roll padding by Eugene Gough, head janitor. Gough has since been indicted by a District grand jury.
Following this resolution Congressman Oscar DePriest proposed (Continued on page two)

ROLAND HAYES TO RECEIVE FISK'S HONORARY DEGREE
NASHVILLE, Tenn.—For the first time in Fisk's history the University will confer an honorary degree on a famous son when, during the Music Festival in April, Roland Hayes will become Doctor of Music. Though degrees are usually conferred at commencement it seemed especially fitting to President Thomas E. Jones and the Board of Trustees that honor should be done a great musician at the annual festival that holds within its three days all of Fisk's music made famous round the world.
Famous Guest Conductor
Another big feature of the festival this year will be the choir concert with T. Tertius Noble, organist and choir master of the St. Thomas Episcopal Church in New York City, one of the most famous composers of church music in America, conducting. Dr. Noble has been in the public eye recently because of a great celebration of his work in New York, when an honorary doctorate was conferred upon him by the Archbishop of Canterbury and a window in St. Thomas was dedicated to him. He is an Englishman by birth and education. Ray Francis Brown, director of the Fisk choir, interested Dr. Noble in the Fisk choir. After listening to it over the radio, singing his own "Fierce was the Wild Billow," he was convinced that he was wrong when he said that students could not sing (Continued on page 2)
School Plays May Be Violation Of District Child Labor Law
It Was Pointed Out That School Plays Are Not "Gainful Occupation" And Was Part Of Extra. Curricular
Howard Flemming, 1600 block of S street, was freed by a jury in Police Court last week on a charge of assaulting Mrs. Viola Kent, 1014 Columbia road. The alleged assault took place on February 15 at the home of Mrs. Kent.
The woman claimed Flemming struck her in the face blackening her eye. Flemming who was represented by Attorney Thomas Beckett, claimed he called at the home of Mrs. Kent with a friend by the name of Jackson. He said Mrs. Kent assaulted him before he entered the house. He claimed Mrs. Kent tore his clothes and ripped his vest off him.
Mrs. Laura Gaffney, janitor at the apartment and a witness for Mrs. Kent, failed to appear in court. The jurors returned a verdict of not guilty in less than ten minutes.
It was brought out that Mrs. Kent has a violent disposition and flew into a rage when she saw Flemming.

Washington school children may have been violating the law by taking part in various plays in the schools and Community Center. This view was taken by certain members of the Board of Education at a meeting at Franklin Building, Wednesday afternoon. A bill introduced in Congress by Senator Capper, last month, proposed to prohibit girls under 18 and boys under 16 from taking part "on the stage of a duly licensed theatre within the District of Columbia—that such person shall not appear on, said stage after 11 o'clock in the evening of any day." The board refused to render an opinion on the proposed amendment to the child labor law to al-
FLOODING OF NEW BROWNE SCHOOL TO DELAY OPENING
Basement Covered With Four Feet of Water When Main Bursts.
Due to a bursted water pipe that flooded the basement of the Hugh M. Browne Junior High School, on Sunday, the school will not open until about May 1, it was announced at Franklin Building, this week.
Workmen were busy all week draining the basement of the new school at Twenty-second street and Benning road, northeast, of three feet of water as a result of a broken main.
Cafeteria equipment in the basement was covered with mud for about four feet. Damage to other equipment was not determined. A series of motors used to operate the ventilating and the vacuum cleaning system; the electric transformers which control the lighting systems also constitute items of expensive equipment which were damaged.
Cafeteria tables, chairs, the kitchen stove and mechanical devices, including dishwashing machines and several hundred students' lockers were buried beneath the slime. The building was completed in January and was scheduled to open in February. Discovery of the settling of the cafeteria floor which is of cement, necessitated a close inspection of the foundation, which it was feared was settling on the clay on which the building was erected. Following several days' inspection the building was announced ready. However it was found that walks to the building were not completed and the assistant municipal architect, S. B. Walsh, announced that the building would not be ready until April 1.
Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of schools, said today that the building will not be occupied until next session. The teaching force which was already set up has been scattered in five northeast elementary schools. The building was to accommodate 663 pupils who are now responsible for 20 part time classes. There are five at Burrville, 11 at Lovejoy and 4 at Payne School.
The rising water in the building broke the door leading to the basement. The water then forced open the doors into the cafeteria, rising to a height of four feet. Valuable time was lost by workmen looking for the main shut-off valve as clay to fill in the front of the building was dumped on the manhole housing the main shut-off al-e. The water was finally turned off at a valve on Benning road, a quarter mile from the school.

The board upheld the action and opinion of its legislation committee that Congress should judge the amendment and that the board should not allow itself to be put in a position of passing on propriety. The function of the board is to enforce the law, it was pointed out.
It was brought out that many plays in the schools might come under the proposed amendment, although it was pointed out that school plays are not gainful occupation, but merely play for the participants and was p+t of the school's extra curricular.
The matter will be referred to Corporation Counsel for an opinion.

HIT-RUN DRIVER
HELD FOR JURY
Marion Brue, A Taxicab Operator, Held In Death of Man Struck By Cab
Marion Brue, 810 Fourth street, a taxicab driver, was held for the action of the grand jury in connection with the death of Joseph Turner, 60, 1318 Florida avenue, who died at Freedmen's Hospital, March 7, from injuries sustained when he was struck by the cab allegedly driven by Brue on February 15.
Brue was arrested when Clovis Jackson, another taxicab driver, gave police the license number of the machine that struck the aged man. The accident occurred at Seventh and T streets.
Brue admitted driving a cab by that number, but denied having struck anyone. Brue is said to have left the scene after the accident and was traced by the license number on his car.
Sues Policeman For $10,-000, Jury Awards Him $10
Edmund Stewart, 2520 High st., southeast, sued Officer Charles Addison for $10,000, claiming a false arrest and malicious prosecution. It was alleged in the declaration that Officer Addison, who is a brother-in-law of the plaintiff, Edmund Stewart, falsely arrested Stewart for misappropriating a check which belonged to Stewart's wife. The case came on for trial on Friday, March 11, 1932, before Justice Bailey in the Supreme Court. The case was bitterly fought and somewhat aggrievated because of the relationship of the parties. Officer Addison has been a member of the Metropolitan Police force for twenty-six years and his wife, Mamie Addison is a retired school teacher. At the time of the arrest Stewart's wife was living with the Addisons at 800 P street, northwest. In the original suit Mamie Addison was included in the case as a conspirator with her husband. On motion of the defendant's attorney, the suit was dismissed against the wife. After a few hours deliberation, the jury awarded the plaintiff the sum of ten dollars. The plaintiff was represented by Attorneys. Casteel and King while Officer Addison was represented by Attorney John H. Wilson.

Witness Says Machine Was Speeding At 50 Miles Thru Street
Stewart A. Hardy, 22 E street, southwest, driver of a car which killed Mrs. Bertha Frederick, 44, 619 Third street, southwest, Saturday night, and two companions with Hardy were held for the action of the grand jury following an inquest at the District Morgue Monday morning.
Those held with Hardy were Charles Loving, 476 K street, and John Brown.
Witnesses testified that the woman was struck as she was crossing at the intersection of Delaware avenue and H street. Hardy is said to have left the scene after the accident, but gave himself up after a visit to the home of his brother, Earl Hardy, 317 I street. George Johnson, a witness, said Hardy was racing on Delaware avenue with another car driven by Thadius Green. Johnson said the cars were speeding at a rate of about fifty miles miles an hour. Green was also arrested, but released after the inquest. He said he was going at a moderate speed and had passed the Hardy machine when the accident occurred. He said he did not stop as he thought Hardy was going to render assistance to the injured woman.
Taking the stand in his own behalf Hardy testified that Green was pushing him as he had a faulty engine. Hardy said he became excited and lost control of his car after the accident. Miss May Jackson who was sitting in a parked machine near the scene of the accident notified Emergency Hospital. Mrs. Frederick was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital by Dr. Oscar Morrell. Hardy said the woman started to cross the street, became excited and ran into his machine.
JEAN TOOMER WEDS WHITE NOVELIST
Grandson of Gov. Pinchback of Louisiana Well Known in Washington
CARMEL, Calif. — Determined that racial barriers shall never mar their happiness, Jean Toomer, Negro poet, essayist and psychologist, and his white bride, Margery Latimer, widely-known novelist, were honeymooning here yesterday (Thursday).
The couple, it was revealed, were married as the culmination of a strange romance that developed during an experiment in human behavior that involved eight "subjects" who lived for two months in a three-room cottage at Portage, Wis., while their reactions were studied.
Toomer, nationally known for his psychological studies in "human relations," arranged the experiment. Both he and Miss Latimer, who is 33 and a graduate of Columbia University, were among the "subjects."
Toomer said:
"As a result of the experiment, I am satisfied that it is entirely possible to eradicate the false veneer of civilization, with its unnatural inhibitions, its selfishness, petty meanness, and unnatural behavior, under proper conditions."
"Adults can be re-educated to become as natural as little children, before civilization stamps out their true or subconscious instincts. I am satisfied that an interior life exists in all of us, a true life which will come to the surface under proper conditions."
Toomer is a grandson of ex-Governor Pinchback, of Louisiana, and is well known in Washington.

150 HOMES OF UNEMPLOYED MEN DESTROYED
Men Who Work For Long Hours Make Few Cents A Day
ARLINGTON, VA. (CNS).—One of the coldest. March nights on record here found over 150 colored men, who salvage jung on a city dump for a living, homelesses and destitute as result of the firing of their "lean-to" shacks by Arlington county police and officials of the West Brothers Brick Company, on whose leased premises the shacks had been erected. The tin and wood shacks, which they had constructed on the side of a hill overlooking the Nation's Capital were completely destroyed on last Tuesday, when a dozen or more armed police headed by Sheriff Howard R. Fields, of Arlington county, W. Harry Johnson, State game warden, and the superintendent of the West Brothers Brick Company swooped down on the impoverished colony and set fire to the entire group of shacks totaling over 100. Many of the men at work on the dump, a quarter of a mile away, could not get back to their squalid homes in time to save the few remaining possessions they had in the world.
Vandalism Given
Accusations that the men had demolished a part of the wooden sheds used by the brick company to store brick were given as reasons for the wholesale destruction of the colony. L. T. West, president of the company on whose premises the shacks were built, stated that the men had made a habit of building tin and wood dwellings on company property for over a year. During that time he reported to the police authorities that wood had been torn from company-sheds and used as fire material by the colonists. This kept up he said for some time and police proved unable to cope with the situation. Finally on suggestion of Sheriff Fields, the men were dispossessed, last week, by fire.
Different Story Told
Quite a different story, was gleaned from other sources, however. According to Sim-Silvers, Jewish junk dealer of 1584 E street, southeast, Washington, D.C., the men are an industrious group, forced to earn a bare livelihood salvaging old rags, bits of metal and bottles, because there is no other work available for them. Mr. Silvers stated that the men worked from five and six o'clock in the morning until it was too dark to see on the nearby dump. Here they would search for anything which might be of value to sell, and gather as well stale bread, lumps of sugar and almost rotten meat, which would be added to whatever else they managed to get for food.
Two Cents for Day's Work
The story told by the men themselves revealed pathetic details of unimaginable poverty. One of the men, John Hall, who said he came from Bowling Grene, Ky., showed Capital News Service reporters his "haul" for a day's work. It consisted of a half loaf of dirty, stale bread, seven lumps of fifthly sugar, two bits of tallow candle (to be used for lighting purposes), and about two pounds of old brass. According to Mr. Silvers, the value of the brass at a junk shop would be four cents a pound. However, the salvagers of the junk deal through "middle men" and receive only a cent a pound for the metal. "All Hall has for ten hours work," said the junk dealer, "it is two cents, an evening's meal of dry bread and sugar, and the bits of candle."

YOUNG MAN AND WOMAN OPEN NEW FLOWER SHOP
Both Dunbar Products And Have Definite Program For Progress
It is unusual during these months of depression to open new business places. The usual thing is to close existing establishments. However, we have the unusual here in Washington. E. O. Chisley and Miss C. M. Johnson have opened a flower shop at 1113 Ninth street, northwest. It has all the appearances of a first-class going concern, with everything neatly and deflyly arranged, giving one the impression of "the woman in it."
Mr. Chisley is the son of Charles O. Chisley, the florist at 603 Four- and A-Half street, southwest. He is a former Dunbar student and has spent most of the past eight years with his father. He is a young man of only 24 years. However he has definite ideas about the flower, business and particularly about his establishment. He has a definite program for improving and developing his plant to make of it the model of Negro shops for the District.
"In my opinion," says Mr. Chisley, "there are wide possibilities here for the Negro in the flower business. While we have had flower shops here for the past 18 or 20 years we have not availed ourselves of the big opportunity here in this business. There is not a single shop here capable of taking care of a big job of decorating. We are going after that work among our schools and other places." Miss Johnson is a graduate of Dumbar and a student at Howard University. These two young people have a definite program and both of them are giving their time to promoting their business. They are making new connections and are preparing to care for any and all business they can contact. They are preparing for the Easter trade and promise telling improvements after Easter.

MINISTERS OF CITY ENDORSE DRIVE
Lichtman Theatres Make First Contribution
Ministers of all denominations of the District of Columbia have endorsed the drive for 5,000 members for the local branch of the N.A.A.C.P. The first Sunday in April will be known as N.A.A.C.P., Sunday, in all of the churches in the city. Special sermons will be preached on this day.
Indications are that the campaign will be a glorious success. Twenty-six captains heading teams of ten to twenty workers each are determined to miss no one in their efforts to secure two hundred members each. The first contribution to the campaign was a check for $50 from the Lincoln Theatre through A. E. Lichtman, who expressed a personal interest in the success of the campaign. The second contribution was $50 from the Columbia Temple No. 42, which came through Daughter Ruler Lena J. Hart, one of the captains in the drive.
The campaign dates are March 15-23. Reports are received daily at campaign headquarters, 1913 Ninth street, northwest, and at meetings of workers at the Phyllis Wheatley Y.W.C.A., on Thursday, March 21. The campaign will close Wednesday, March 28, at which time final reports will be made at a meeting at the Y.W.C.A.
Mrs. Daisy E. Lampkin, of Pittsburgh, regional field secretary, is directing the campaign with the following captains: Mrs. M. A. Francis, Mrs. J. W. Hamilton, Miss E. F. G. Merritt, Miss L. A. Robinson, Miss Louise E. Pinkett, Mrs. Martha McAdoo, Mrs. Isadore Letcher, Dr. Ionia Whipier, Miss Susie Quander, Miss Nannie Burroughs, Dr. Dorothy Boulding Ferebee, Miss Rachel R.

TURNER AWARDED RESEARCH GRANT IN LINGUISTICS
The American Council of Learned Societies has recently awarded Lorenzo D. Turner, Professor of English at Fisk University, one of its larger grants for research in linguistics. These larger grants are reserved for mature scholars of substantial achievement in constructive research, who are able to devote at least six months of uninterrupted work to their investigations. Dr. Turner will spend six months on the sea islands off the coast of South Carolina and Georgia preparing a descriptive grammar of the Gullah dialect.
This dialect is rapidly disappearing, and Dr. Turner's purpose is to make a permanent record of it, not in conventional spelling—a method which is used by all authors of Gullah literature, and which is hopelessly inadequate to reproduce speech accurately and scientifically—but by means of phonetic symbols. Phonographic records will serve as the basis for

General Education Board Makes Conditional Grant To Va. Union Univ
Richmond, Va., Mar.—For the first time in 30 years Virginia Union University has been threatened with a large deficit at the end of the year, and because this condition is typical of the country, the school is trying to wipe out the deficit before the end of the year. Although drastic eco.omies have been enforced, the authorities claim that the program at Union has not suffered—that the same high standard has been kept.
In order to enable the University to pull through the year with a clean sheet, the General Education Board has granted $10,000 to Union on the condition that the school through its alumni and alumnae and friends raise $5,000. The Alumni Association has started a campaign to raise the money.

Tabernacle Baptist
By JULIA BLACKWELL
"Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" (Aets 16:30.) the pastor, Rev. E. J. Bradshaw, used this as his theme on last Sunday morning. After considering the dispensation under which the individual lives, he pointed out that belief, confession and faith are necessary for conversion. The building program has taken a new trend. Members, friends and well wishes are pledging bricks to ward the new building, and so far approximately ninety thousand bricks have been pledged. The Sunday school, under the direction of the superintendent, Miss Beatrice Suydan, presented a gala fashion review on Friday night. The performers were all children of the Sunday school. The program was supplemented by numbers from the Jolly Glee Club and the Boy Scouts of Burrville, D.C.

Members of the group are: Misses Lois Jones, Gertrude McBrown, Ethel Roberson, Mesdames Louise Lovett, Osceola Adams, Messrs. Edward Lovett, James Porter, James We'lls, Howard Mackey, George M.

ARMSTRONG NOTES
The usual trend of the Monday and Wednesday morning assemblies is constantly being changed by presenting something new and interesting. The last Girls' assembly featured a television program and proved to be the most appealing. It was staged largely for the benefit of the new girls of Armstrong, by the Big Sisters, composed of Senior girls, under the supervision of Mrs. O. W. Spivey, assistant principal. Ruth Boyer, program announcer, with Catherine Wiggins, station announcer, created much humor and interest because of the originality used in introducing each feature.
On the program appeared the big Sisters' Glee Club, singing, The Ocean King; Evelyn Greene, delivering a welcome to the New Girls; Elizabeth Wallace discussing School Spirit; Grace Dodson, representing the Honor Roll Society; Dorothy Fagin, speaking on behalf of the school paper; Adele Hamlin, urging new girls to join the Dramatic Club; Francis Powell, endearing to interest them in the Girl Reservoir; Mary Briscoe, representing the Junior Red Cross; Marie Wharton, arousing interest in the Girls' Swimming Club Sarah Thompson, explaining the achievements and policies of the Social Service Club; and Juanita Barner, explaining points for awards given each year for outstanding achievements in the field of athletics.

DADDY chucks her under the chin and calls her a plump little rascal. He's proud of his handsome girl—no doubt of that. Like most adoring men daddy takes her beaming health for granted.
Mommy chuckles a little to herself at all this. She knows how delicate her little girl was once, how subject to colds and digestive upsets. Years ago she made up her mind to study the real cause of children's troubles. A kindly old family doctor carefully explained to her
the reason children became upset and subject to illness. The real cause, he said, was usually when little bowels were sluggish. Then tender little bodies absorbed poison from accumulated body wastes. He recommended that she always keep a bottle of Castoria on hand for

DR. ROBERT SHAW WILKINSON DIES IN ORANGEBURG
ORANGEBURG, S.C. (CNS)—Dr. Robert Shaw Wilkinson, 67, president of South Carolina A.& M. College, died here Sunday, of pneumonia. Dr. Wilkinson had long been known as one of the outstanding educators in the South. He attended West Point in 1884, resigning because of poor health. Later he matriculated at Oberlin College, receiving an A.B. degree in 1891. He also did graduate work at Columbia University, 1902-4. The recipient of a number of honorary degrees, he was honored in 1922 by his alma mater (Oberlin) with the degree of master of arts. He taught at the University of Kentucky for a number of years, and later at South Carolina A.& M. College. He was elected to the presidency of the institution in 1911, and remained its head until his death. Dr. Wilkinson was a Mason, an Elk and an Odd Fellow, and a Kngiht of Pythias. He was also a member of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity.
He is survived in his immediate family by his wife, two daughters and two sons. Many people through he was related to Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of schools in Washington, D.C. They were not related, however, both were born in South Carolina, both graduated from Oberlin, and both educators. Dr. Wilkinson stood well with the State officials of South Carolina, and his death is quite a loss.

PRAISES HOWARD SPORTSMANSHIP
New York City College Officer Lauds Playing Of Bisons In New York
Maxwell F. Marcuse, member of the Board of Higher Education of the City of New York, who represented President Frederick B. Robinson of the City College of New York in the basketball game played between that institution and Howard University in New York City last Saturday, made the following comment on the clean-cut sportsmanship of the Howard players in a letter received yesterday by President Mordecai W. Johnson. Then text of the letter follows:
"Dear Dr. Johnson:
"On Saturday night I attended the Howard University-City College basketball game as the official representative of the latter institution in place of Dr. Robinson who was unable to be present.
"I want to tell you how much I enjoyed the game. I particularly am desirous of conveying to you my sincere admiration for the clean-cut sportsmanship of your boys. I have seen many inter-collegiate basketball games in recent years, but I have yet to see e to cleanly played, so devoid of the usual rough tactics and poor sportsmanship which characterize the basketball activities on the part of teams emanating from colleges and universities of high repute.
"At this late day when the forces of bigotry and racial prejudice are running rampant over the face of civilization, it is mighty fine and refreshing to see the representatives of two institutions such as yours and mine get together, in an athletic contest, not so much to display or to achieve the supremacy o' the one over the other, but to effect a joint supremacy over the common foe of racial discrimination. The mixed crowd of white and colored people enjoyed the exhibition of excellent basketball immensely and comprised as fine a crowd of sports lovers as I have ever seen."

Morris Brown U. Wins Southern Court Crown

ATLANTA, Ga.—New echoes

Brown's double victory over
Knoxville, the champions of 1931.
The Wolverine adged out Knoxville Friday night 27-21, but showed an overwhelming ability to score by swamping the visitors Saturday afternoon, 43-20.
These final battles which brought to Morris Brown the coveted crown of undefeated champions of the Southern Conference brought to 'light two sterling stars: Dyke Smith, whose wied shot shooting netted ten points in the Friday's victory and Big Jim Read, elected All-Southern guard, who scored 22 of his team's points in Saturday's win. Abe Walker, another Wolverine ace played a swan song at center that will be remembered by Knoxville for days to come: as he registered most of the tip-offs, then added ten of the victor points in the final games.

2 WIN GOLDEN GLOVE CONTEST
CHICAGO.—(ANP)—Two boys fought their way through 3,000 contestants to the finals of the annual Golden Gloves amateur boxing tournament which were held Wednesday night in the Chicago Stadium under the auspices of the Chicago Tribune which, with associated papers in Illinois, Wisconsin and Indiana, conducts the annual affairs.
One of the boys, Johnny Phagan of Coulson's gymnasium, Chicago, battled his way to a brilliant victory and a welter-weight championship when he upset the dope and whipped as sturdy lad, Billy Celebron, of Rockford. Although Phagan was a semi-finalist last year, Celebron's skillful scythe had cut down so many of the youthful warriors that it was predicted Phagan would also fall before the grim reaper of Rockford. Both boys won their semi-final matches, but Celebron's victory was the more impressive. In two rounds he knocked out Stanislas Kaktus.
The other finalish was Ambrose Geoghegan, a middleweight who also represented Johnny Coulon's stable. Possessing the longest arms of any battler in the tournament he won his semi-final bout and entered the finals against Charles Neige. Neige began a steady attack on Ambrose's stomach, which had the boy winded by the end of the second round. He tried vainly to land a haymaker, but the business-like white boy kept out of harm's reach and piled up points to win the decision.
Phagan and Geogheagan both won the right to represent Chicago in the inter-city matches with New York on March 28 and to compete in the international meet against the champion of Germany in Soldierz field here July 26.

VA. STATE WON 14 OUT OF 17 GAMES
Howard, Hampton And Morgan Only Teams To Defeat Hilltoppers
PETERSBURG, Va.—The basketball team of Virginia State College, under the leadership of Coach James D. Barnes, has made a commendable record in the season just coming to a close.
The Hilltoppers played a total of seventeen games, more than any other team in the association, winning fourteen and losing three. Fifteen of the games were played against C.I.A.A. teams; the remaining two games were with Bricks Junior College.
TUSKEGEE, Ala.—The sixth annual relays will be held at Tuskegee Institute in the Alumni Bowl on May 6-7. The events for young women will start at 1 p.m., May 6, and will be concluded that afternoon.
The three games in which the Hilltoppers suffered defeat were lost by very close margins. In two of these games the winning teams, Howard and Morgan, were able to shade the Hilltoppers by only one point. Howard and Morgan were both defeated once by the Hilltoppers, however, and so was Hampton at whose hands the Virginia Statesmen suffered their only other defeat.
The order in which they will be contested: Sixty yard hurdles—Four 2 feet, 6 inches hurdles; 15 yards at the start and finish; 10 yards between hurdles.
Flifty yard run. Eight pound shot put (from 7 feet circle). Running high jump. Discus throw (women's discus, from 8 feet, 2½ inches circle). Running broad jump. Baseball throw (Official League Ball). Javelin throw. 440 yard relay race.
In the course of the season, the Hilltoppers took two games from each of the following teams: J. C. Smith, A. & T. Virginia Union, and St. Paul. Because the Hilltoppers met Shaw only once, only one victory was recorded from that team.
Gold, silver, and bronze—Championship medals will be awarded to winners of the first, second, and third places in each championship event.
A handsome point trophy to the school scoring the most number of points. Points to be scored on a basis of: five for the first; three, for the second; two for the third; and one for the fourth.
Much credit is due Coach Barnes for the development of the wonderful team which he placed on the court for Virginia State this season. The young coach was in his second season as head coach of basketball here. While Coach H. D. Martin has been studying at New York University, Barnes has been doing wonders with the State basketball team.
An entry fee will not be charged. Entertainments will not be charged to contestants and coaches.
Entries Will Close April 22
No young women will be allowed to compete in more than three events, of which three not more than two shall be track events. The relay shall count as one track event. The right to reject any entry is reserved.
The Hilltoppers big five consisted of Scott and Butler at forward positions. Hall at center, Bell and Dabney at guard. These five men the chief cogs in the Virginia State wheel this season. They have all been outstanding and valuable men to their team. Pennington and C. Johnson have been valuable assests in the pinches on many occasions.
These events are open to all university, college and high school young women. Schools may enter one or two relay teams, provided the teams are entered as A and B teams. Schools must specify names of runners who will compete on each team. No charge from one team to the other will be permitted after the entry is made.

The Plains have an undefeated record of five wins. The Manchester are close on the heels of the leaders with only one defeat to mar their standing.
The Arrows earned a forfeited victory over the Anacostia A. C., Monday, while the other senior clash between the Plains and Shaw Night School for this week has been postponed.
In the junior circuit, the Cardozo A. C. continued to hold the top position with a clean slate. The Plains Juniors advanced to second position in the loop by taking a 31-14 game from the Hilltop A. C. Monday. At the same time, the Monroes added to their percentage by beating the Royals, 18-7.

MORGAN COLLEGE
WINS CITY TITLE
Bears Defeat Athenians By 49 To 35 Score For Baltimore Crown
BALTIMORE, Md. — Having closed a successful C. I. A. A. season, the Morgan Bears strode forward Friday night to annex the city championship and their 7th national championship by defeating the Athenian Club of this city 49-35.
It was a typical club-college game par excellence with the Bear machine outplaying and outsteading the Greek outfit. Time and again that Morgan man-for-man defense broke up Athenian plays and time and again that Morgan pivot offense penetrated the Athenian zone defense to register point after point. The superb passing and pivot offense coupled with its impregnable defense were the ultimate factors in victory for the college lads. It was only in the final half of the game that the Greeks were able to pierce that stone wall defense of the Bears.
Led by their agile and ambidextrous captain, "Skippi" Gibson, The Bears were not to be denied what was apparently theirs after the first half. Here, there and everywhere Captain Gibson accounted for five field goals and four charity tosses for a total of fourteen points, being tied by "Lanky" Jones, of the club team Gibson was easily the outstanding star of the evening.
The game started off with Haackett dropping one of his pet corner shots, which was followed by a goal by Gibson. Thomas accounted for the first Athenian score by dropping one from mid

floor. Hudson and Wheatley followed in rapid session with three goals to put the Greeks in the fore. Troupe and Gibson followed with accurate shots putting Morgan in the lead, which they kept thereafter. The two teams tired at half time with the Bears on the long end of the 15-12 score.
The second half opened with rapid fire passing by both teams with the Greeks on the aggressive. Morgan was contented with a change of pace keeping the club boys "up a tree." After "Skippy" Gibson had brought "loud hurrahs" from the rooters by making a left hand overhead shot while in top speed, the Bears put on the semi-freezing act with a revolving dribble combination of Conrad, Wilson and Gibson, keeping possession of the ball for fully four minutes. The last five minutes of the half saw the Greeks desperately attempting to overhaul the flying Bears, but they were not to be denied and proudly marched off the floor with a 49-35 victory.
In the preliminary the Freshmen defeated the Juniors in the final game of the intramural season, thus becoming champions of the school. "Metz" Banks and "Wigggy" Wiggins were the outstanding performers for the newly crowned chams.

GORDON TOSSES JACK JENKINS
Teddy Adams And Billy Hunter Wrestle To 30-Minute Stalemate
It took Rough House Gordon 27 minutes to dispose of Jack Jenkins in the "Y" feature, Tuesday night.
Jenkins had Gordon on the defensive most of the time, and gave the winner plenty opposition until the last. Teddy Adams and Billy Hunter went 30 minutes to a draw. It was a hard clean match that had the gallery on edge throughout. Other results follow:
Red Plume, 158 pounds, won over Jim Rowe, 164 pounds, in 28 minutes, while "Shorty" Collins and Rusty Terry went 30 minutes to a draw.
Next week's card will feature Gordon and Green, while Veat Sylvester and Ted Adams will tangle for a long-looked-for battle.
PLAINSMEN TAKE THRILLER,16-18
Gleaming brilliancy of the most praiseworthy exhibition of basketball was displayed by the Pleasant Plains quint, last Saturday night, on the Garnet-Patterson court, when they came from behind to humble a bewildered Manchester team, 18-16.
In the first half the losers performed like a world beater with the Hawkins brothers and Tabbs darting hither and yon to pile up a 16 to 4 count at the bell. It looked like a sure riot for the second stanza, but it was a determined Plains aggregation that took the floor and started the spurt to triumph.
The quint worked in commendable fashion, the shooting of Barnes and Carter started the march, and the floor work of Jelly and Butter was food to the Plains followers. During this spurt the winners stood out defensively and offensively. So great was the defensive that the sharp shooting Manchester were held scoreless for the last 20 minutes. The gallery was in an up-roar as the Plains knotted the count with one minute to play. In a mix-up of six or seven players, Barnes emerged with a dribble and close-up shot to clinch a well-earned victory. This game gave the winners the lead in the Big Four Cage Series.

"THE MONSTER WALKS" OPENS AT THE REPUBLIC
The latest horror picture from the Hollywood studios, "The Monster, Walks," will be the feature attraction at the Republic Theatre from Sunday to Thursday, Mar. 20, 21, 22, 23 and 24. "The Monster Walks" provides the same sort of terrifying thrills that made "Frankenstein" the talk of the movie world. The story tells of the efforts of one man to remove all possible heirs to a fortune left by the murderer's brother. His diabolical plot includes the use of a vicious gorilla, but in the end his plot proves a boomerang and he is murdered by the same means he had chosen to do his dirty work. Appalling in its horror, gruesome in its details, terrifying in its action, "The Monster Walks" is the epic of all horror pictures. Vera Reynolds and Sheldon Lewis are in the leading roles.
As a special attraction for the close of the Lenten season, the Republic will present that distinguish actor, George Arliss, in his latest picture, "The Man Who Played God," on Friday and Saturday, March 25 and 26. It is a modern drama from real life, a story of a musician whose life and happiness revolves around his music and the pleasure he brings on countless thousands. Fate plays a strange trick on him, presenting the world for a plaything and then taking everything away. Arliss gives an inspired performance that only he is capable of. A special added attraction, "Oberammargau" home of the Passion Play, will also be shown. Episode No. 4 of "Detective Lloyd" will be shown on Saturday only. Saturday is also Pay Day at the Republic. Everybody will receive a pay envelope containing money.
"The Hatchet Man" Starts Easter Sunday at the Republic
Sunday at the Republic
In answer to the many inquiries, David B. Martin, manager of the Republic Theatre, announces that Edward G. Robinson in "The Hatchet Man" will play a week's engagement starting Easter Sunday, March 27. Robinson will depict a characterization he had never before attempted, that of a Tong's chief executioner known as "The Hatchet Man." It is said to be his greatest picture.
Jos. Small Exonerated By Jury On Assault Charge
Joseph Small was exonerated of an assault charge preferred by John Pleasant in Police Court last week when a jury returned a verdict of not guilty.
Testimony was to the effect that Pleasant was attacked during the Christmas holidays by a group of men. Sometimes later Pleasant met Small and accused him of being in the group. It was brought out that Pleasant had an Iron pipe in his hands when he met Nith. During the melee which took place on N street, near Ninth, Pleasant suffered a fractured skull. Small pleaded self-defense. He was represented by Attorney Thomas Beckett.
and SCREEN
JACK HOLT IN 'BEHIND THE MASK' AT THE LINCOLN
To enhance an illusion of horror, creative artists in literature, painting, the stage and the screen, have undeavored to make an evil character a montsorosity in appearance. For the most part, external and internal ugliiness have been closely associated.
This method has been employed on the screen quite consistently in relating a story about some terrifying character—"Dracula," "Dr Jekyl and Mr. Hyde," "Frankenstein."
Columbia pictures has reversed this procedure in "Behind the Mask" coming to the Lincoln theatre on Friday March 18th and running thru Tuesday, March 22.
Actors in this terrifying and exciting film include Jack Holt, Boris Karloff, the terrible monster of "Frankenstein." Constance Cummings, Claude Xing, Bertha Ann and Williard Robertson, John F. Dillon, the director of "The Noose," "The Finger Points" and "Pagan Lady" handled this production.
The plot was adapted from the novel "Axelle" by Pierre Benoit. In the cast are Lelia Hyams, Ralph Bellamy, William Pawley, C. Aubrey Smith and others.
JOHN GILBERT IN "WEST OF BROADWAY" AT BOOKERT.
Harry Beaumont who first introduced chorus girls in talkies with "Broadway Melody" brings them back to the screen in "West of Broadway", John Gilbert's new starring picture which will open at the Booker T. Theatre Friday, March 18th. The chorus girls, performing a novel number, are seen in a big party sequence at the beginning of the picture when the hero hires an entire musical comedy party he is staging at his home. It is the first time a chorus routine has appeared in a film for more than a year. El Brendal heads the supporting cast which includes Lois Moran, Madge Evans, Ralph Bellamy, Frank Conroy, Gween Leo and Hedda Hooper.
One thousand disabled veterans and former doughboys were engaged to stage the troopship return celebration in "West of Broadway." At Gilbert's request, as many of the veterans who played with him in "The Big Parade" as could be located were engaged for the new picture and the staging of the scenes resembled an AEK reunion in many ways.

What is conceded to be the most brilliant picture to come from M-G-M studios in years will be shown at the Broadway Theatre Sunday and Monday when "Mata Hari" opens for a two day run. This is the picture which co-stars Greta Garbo and Ramon Novarro, a cinema event which aroused the keenest anticipation during the entire time in which the work was in production.
Mata Hari which from the viewpoint of story, direction, setting, and photography, is said to establish a new standard for photoplay achievements is made further distinct by a supporting cast which includes such important film names as Lionel Barrymore, who recently was awarded the Academy medal for the best male performance of 1931, Lewis Stone and others. It was directed by George Fitzmaurice, who scored with Norman Shearer's production "Strangers May Kiss."

MADAME CAUSBY
(Continued from Page 4)
(white), sales crew and office managers, arranged with a down town orchestra to give $_{\text{a}}$ Causby dance on a percentage basis, at which a demonstration with the Mme. Causby cosmetics was given. The affair was an overwhelming success, increasing the demands for these cosmetics 100 per cent, and exhausting the immediate supply. She stated that upon waiting more than three weeks before her second order was supplied she lost her agents and customers. From this great loss Mme. Causby moved her offices to 1109 O St., northwest, where $_{\text{a}}$ she occupied the four front and one rear apartments. More determined than ever she again started with the National Laboratory to assist in the manufacturing of these cosmetics. It was not long before she had agents in various parts of the country, with branch offices in Pittsburgh, Newark, and New York, and traveling salesmen on the road, two of which were Albert P. Scott and Vernon Davis.
Mme. Causby states that inefficient help has been a great handicap. Recently a new stenographer destroyed all 1931 financial statements, Mme. Causby says she is often compelled to employ efficient assistants of the other race. Her present secretary and manager (white), an Englishman, is now attending her business in New York.
During Mme. Causby's five years of business she has made wonderful contacts in the business and financial world of New York City. In 1930, plans to merge with the Tyree Products Co., of New York, to open a large Causby manufacturing plant just outside of Newark, N.J., were stopped when the stock crash came, stopping sales on large blocks of the Causby laboratory stock. With Mme. Causby's unusual business ability, her business has steadily increased to enormous proportion, her cosmetics are being sold both here and in the foreign fields wtl, demands are far greater than she can supply.
Mme. Causby says her business has improved with the depression, which has taught people the value of looking their best, becoming independent of menial labor. This has opened up a great demand for her resident and correspondent beauty courses, for which she has written $22,000 worth of text books. Financiers have offered thousands of dollars for partnership in her business, which she has not accepted. Mme. Causby has bought out the first Apex School in Washington, D.C., and made of it one of the largest and most complete shops and schools of the city. It is lease dthat her correspondent school and mail order business has met with great success. Her hair grower which is sld nationally, has a radio program on WJSV, between 7:15 and 7:30 Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Mrs. E. S. Colbert Dies After Long Illness
Mrs. Elma Shields Colbert, 1817
First street, northwest, a mechanical dentist, died at her home last Thursday after an illness of six months.
Funeral services were conducted by the Rev. J. L. S. Holloman, pastor of the Second Baptist Church.
Mrs. Colbert was employed for a number of years by a down town mechanical dentist. She is survived by her mother, Mrs. Maggie Shields; four brothers, Morris, Clarence, Milton and Roosevelt; a sister, Mrs. Helen Hamilton; a daughter, Mrs. Ethel Dodson; two sons, Arthur C. Colbert and David Crockett.

$535,000 ADDED
(Continued from page 9) a spirit in keeping with the best traditions of . . . american life, because it is an institution endeavoring to do a great work under severe handicaps and which is evidencing an admirable capacity to develop self-support through student dues and through private funds. It is not only a duty but a privilege of the Federal Government to provide that in times of depression like these the program of such an institution shall not suffer.
"The institution has shown a commendable spirit of co-operation with the agencies of the Federal Government in reducing its claims for appropriations in the very beginning of the year. During the normal year, 1993, the institution would have needed from the Federal Government $1,942,000. The administration of the institution cheerfully co-operated with the Bureau of the Budget in cutting away $332,914 of this sum in view of abnormal economic conditions prevailing in the country.
"The Budget figure of $1,610,000 was therefore a straight-forward and honest figure arrived at through careful thought upon the actual needs of the institution. The amount of $675,000 now standing in the Senate bill represents a cut of 58 per cent.
"The total cut from $1,610,000 to $675,000 included the following: Four hundred thousand dollars to complete the library, $460,000 for power plant, $25,000 for salaries, and $80,000 for general expenses, making a total cut of $935,000.
"No other appropriation in that bill is called upon to make a similar sacrifice or anything even approaching a similar sacrifice. The fact is that the average cut in the Interior bill, as it now stands before the Senate, is 3 per cent."

Another DePriest
Candidate Fails
Word was received here this week that another candidate of Congressman Oscar DePriest for admission to the United States Military Academy at West Point had failed in the mental test. The candidate is Francis Bangleless.
Since the election of Mr. DePriest a score of boys have offered themselves as sacrifices before the fires of prejudice at West Point and Annapolis. One by one they have been turned back because of alleged mental or physical defects.

TWO
STUDENTS TASTE FIRST JIMCROW IN WASHINGTON
Michigan Group Plans Visi Here To Attend Celebration Of Washington
A letter to the local branch of the Y.M.C.A. by a Pennsylvania Railroad official asks the Y.M.C.A. to provide jim crow accommodations for four colored students who plan to visit here this month with other classmates to attend the George Washington Bicentennial Celebration. The letter was written by R. C. Caldwell, division passenger agent, Traffic Department, Pennsylvania Railroad, Chicago. The group of students are expected to arrive here March 30, and leave on April 1. Caldwell seeks to have the colored students room and board at the Y.M.C.A., while their classmates remain at a down town hotel.
It was pointed out by Major Campbell C. Johnson, executive secretary of the Y.M.C.A., that the branch receives many such requests. Although there is no jim crow in the home towns these students are segregated when they come to the nation's capital.
This jim crow is especially significant during the celebration of the two hundredth anniversary of the father of the country, as it was Washington who is alleged to have stood for equal rights for all Americans.
White students are housed at down town hotels while their darker classmates are sent to other places. Many of these students meet their first jim crow here in the Capital.
MACK ROWE HEADS NORTHWEST COAL BRANCH
NAACP Pressing Campaign "Spend Your Money Where You Can Work"
Plans for the Washington campaign sponsoring the movement of "Spend Your Money Where You Can Work," that have been under way for the past two months opened officially today under the sponsorship of a special committee of the local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, directed by Mishael Jones.
The association workers received their first encouragement by persuading the Action Fuel Company, Inc., to establish a northwest branch at 1008 U street, with Mack D. Rowe as agent in charge, assisted by a staff of two young colored women as clerks. Already this fair minded step by the Action Fuel Company, Inc., has been greatly appreciated by coal purchasers of the race.
Mr. Rowe comes to his new duties after much business experience in the States of North Carolina and Virginia. He was in charge of Government camp construction during the World War at Camp Hill, in Newport News, and Camp Johnson in Jacksonville, Fla. Mr. Rowe attended the schools of Portsmouth, Va., and Union University, Richmond, Va.
A Coal Club, with the object of enrolling a thousand members will be the major portion of Mr. Rowe's work for the next ninety days. His plans call for a ton of coal to every member of the club. Many homes of Washington's colored citizens have already joined Rowe's coal club.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People plans to be continuously and intensively active in obtaining employment for cooled people in positions other than mental labor.

NEW YORK, Mar. 11.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has received clipping from the Yankers, N.Y. Statesman applauding the appointment as clerk of the Supreme Court of a Negro, Walter Giddings, of 354 Warburton avenue, Yorkers. The diorial praising the appointment, says in part: "The new court clerk has attained a county-wide reputation through work in naturalization court as deputy county clerk, assisting hundreds of persons at the threshold of citizenship to attain that privilege. By personal integrity and worthiness he won a place at the very top of a long list of contestants in civil service examination for the post.
"Participating in almost every phase of social and fraternal life intended to upift his race, he is a past master of the Farrel Lodge, Prince Hall Masons and active in other organizations here. He enters upon an important post, thoroughly equipped to carry on ably.
"Weschester County has honored itself in honoring Mr. Giddings. And it has established a precedent which will make it easier for other honors to be conferred in the future without regard to the pigment of a man's skin."

Contest of Choirs
This fourth annual Festival of Music and Fine Arts will bring more celebrities to the Fisk campus than all of the others together. It will open on Thursday, April 21, with an all day contest of choirs and high, school assemblies from twenty Tennessee towns trained by Miss Alice Simmons of the Fisk music faculty on a grant from the Carnegie Foundation.

The Fisk choir that has just finished a two months' national broadcast will top off the contest and join with the massed choirs in the singing of spirituals.
Other distinguished participants in the Festival will be Lorado Taff, sculptor, who will lecture on his dream museum and Dr. W. F.

SCOTT WELCOMES
(Continued from page 1)
an amendment to the resolution,
calling for a ten-year investigation
of the office of the secretary-
treasurer. Close adherents of the
university say this latest move by
Oscar DePriest brings the fight
of the president and the secretary-
treasurer more into the open than
it ever has been.
In a signd statement Emmett J.
Scott, secretary-treasurer, told the
press this week that his office
would welcome and is eager for
any investigation. He refused to
comment further.
Dr. Mordecai Johnson refused to comment on the release issued by Mr. Scott. Dr. Sara W. Brown, member of the trustee board and a resident of Washington, could not be reached at her home this week. A reporter for the Tribune was told that she was in New York. Dr. Brown is the only woman member of the committee of five to form the special investigation body. The announcement that the special committee would report its findings by April 12 reveals that the committee has some clear and well defined program as the time would not allow any extensive investigation.
Of the twenty-two members of the board of trustees eighteen were present, as follows: John H. Sherburne, president of the board, Boston, Mass.; Mordecia W. Johnson, president of the university; Sara W. Brown, Washington, D.C.; Sara Jones, New York, N.Y.; Jesse E. Moorland, New York, N.Y.; Peter Marshall Murray, New York, N.Y.; James C. Napier, Nashville, Tenn.; Mareus F. Wheatland, Newport, R.I.; Louise C. Ball, New York, N.Y.; W. Justine Carter, Harrisburg, Pa.; George W. Crawford, New Haven, Conn.; Rolie Cobleham, Boston, Mass.; John R. Hawkins, Washington, D.C.; Walter G. Crump, New York, N.Y.; Victor B. Deyber, Washington, D.C.; Abraham Flexner, New York, N.Y.; Albert Bushnell Hart, Cambridge, Mass.; and C. H. Pope, Washington, D.C.
SCOTT SAYS INVESTIGATION WILL SILENCE WHISPERING CAMPAIGN
In a signed statement to the Tribune, this week, Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, stated that he will welcome and "am eager" for an investigation of his office as proposed in an amendment, last week, by Oscar DePriest, Illinois Congressman.
In his statement Mr. Scott said, "For myself I can only say I not only welcome but am eager for such an investigation. Once and for all, such an investigation will dispose of whisperings, innuendoes, vague insinuations, for which none up to this point has been willing to stand in the open and sponsor. This is all the comment I care to make."
The investigation referred to by Mr. Scott was an amendment proposed to be attached to House Resolution 160, introduced by Representative Hall, of Mississippi, asking for a probe of the university for the past three years. The bill referred to the "continual unrest and educational turmoil." The amendment seeks an accounting of the office of the secretary-treasurer for the past ten years, covering the bookkeeping, audit of accounts, receipts and disbursements, the purchase and sale of land or buildings, the placing of mortgages or refunding same, together with fees, commissions and allowances.

SOUTHERN AID SOCIETY ISSUES ANNUAL STATEME'T
Cultivates Quality Instead Of Quantity In Limited Territory
The Southern Aid Society of Virginia, Inc., the race's oldest existing insurance corporation, is publishing in this issue its annual statement as of December 31, 1931. The record in view of the condition which have confronted race people and their enterprises during the past year, is both a pleasing and reassuring one. The officers and fieldmen of this insurance corporation take pride in the number of claims paid and the services rendered to their policyholders and in safeguarding their interest and the assets of the Corporation. This is evidenced by the Corporation carrying a Reserve to protect the policies in force and in maintaining a good Surplus and having ample Capital.
This Corporation is also noted for the fact that it has never sought volume in preference to quality, but has striven to do a safe and enduring business. It also believes in the intensive cultivation of the limited territory and limiting its insurance activities, until economic conditions among race people are more favorable, to the most serviceable forms of insurance contracts such as all modern forms of Intermediate and Industrial Life contracts and very liberal Weekly Disability ones covering sickness and accidental injury.
This Corporation also has the distinction of showing unusual appreciation to the people with whom it does business by either purchasing or erecting a building in all of the larger cities in which it operates. That makes it a local taxpayer as well as a large employer of people, and gives it a home or local status. Thus the policyholder not only get the benefit of prompt and liberal payment of claims and opportunities for dignified employment for their sons and daughters but, in addition, have in their midst a standing monument of encouragement to the youth of the race. The public should therefore consider these important protective and economic features when taking insurance.
The Company is planning during this year to develop to a larger extent its business in the District of Columbi. and State of Virginia and in doing so, will give employment to a larger number of worthy young men and women and extend its unique insurance service to many thousands of our people who are not now properly insured.
POLICE SEEK AXE ASSAILANT OF MUTILATEDWOMAN
BALTIMORE, Md.-With her face mutilated beyond recognition after a brutal ax assault, Frances Perkins, 517 N. Asquith street, was taken to Johns Hopkins Hospital, Saturday morning.
According to Patrolman George Schuitzlein, of the Northwestern district, he was summoned to the above address by the landlord, who found Miss Perkins lying on the floor in the kitchen in a pool of blood. In turning over the body, he found that the woman was still alie, but unable to speak intelligibly. He then immediately rushed out and called an ambulance.
The gruesome discovery was made on the first floor of the dwelling, the room showing little signs of struggle, but the entire floor was covered with blood. Near the sink large thick clots gave the impression that the victim had received many blows from the ax near this spot.
Occupants of the apartment above are occupied by the Miss Perkins, Charles Turner, her reputed common law husband, and another man, said they did not hear any confusion. Although questioned by police they did not however give any important information.
Examination by doctors at Hopkins Hospital where the woman was taken revealed the right jaw had been practically chopped out, while the remainder of the face bore deep gashes. For the last four or five days the victim has lay unconscious and has spoken only a few words during short periods of consciousness.
Two suspects were arrested and later released. They are Enoch Crometic, arrested the day following the assault, and Charles Turner. 517 Alsouni street.
A report from the hospital on
Thursday morning stated that there
is a slight improvement in the
condition of the woman.

MADAME CATLIN EXTENDS HER ACTIVITIES
Conducts A School Of Beauty Culture; Beauty Shop And Flower Shop
Mme. C. J. Catlin continues her march of progress in her chosen line, beauty culture, and has entered another line of commercial effort. This venture was made about a month ago when she entered the Violet Flower Shop at 907 U street, northwest. This shop will specialize in funeral designs and party decorations. The shop was established some time ago, but the management saw fit to make a change and Mme. Catlin was induced to enter this field and add another link to her chain of establishments. Mme. Catlin has her school of beauty culture at 901 U street, northwest, where she trains students in her famous system of beauty culture.
Last August she opened the Estelle Beauty Shop at 923 U street, northwest, to give an opening for her graduates to work. This place has proven a success and there are six operators constantly on the job.
Mme. Catlin graduated from the Molar College of Beauty Culture in Chicago about 12 years ago. She also took advance work under Prof. Marcel in New York City, and is also a member of the National Association of Hairdressers, which gives her entrance to all of the big displays and exhibits held by this association.
When she first came here, Mme. Catlin opened her first shop at 1728 Columbia road, where she had six white and four colored operators. She later opened on Ontario road and then on to U street. Now she is branching out into the manufacturing phase of her work, and expects to develop this field also.
The loss of her husband, last August, retarded her progress some

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE'S FIRST WOMEN'S PAGE
This week we dedicate our woman's page to one of our leading business women, Madame Ora Scott, Causby, president-treasurer of the Causby Laboratories, Inc., which has a capitilization of $100,000.
Mme. Causby is a quiet, persistent and industrious woman who plans her work and then patiently and courageously works her plans.
Mme. Ora Scott Causby started her successful business career as beautician in 1917 after graduating from Mme. Washington's Systen of Beauty Culture, Cleveland, Ohio. She returned to Raphine, Va., her home, and with one of her father's old gray mares & buggy canvassed all the nearby towns selling her beauty aids. After driving 12 to 14 miles she would return home with a fat purse of $2.00 to $4.00, which was twice the week's salary for domestic service in those parts for a girl of her age. She returned to Cleveland in 1918, and did residential work there, until she secured a position as beautician in a shop on the historical Macanac Island, Michigan, catering to the wealthiest of several countries. While at this resort she saved enough money to pay her tuition at Virginia Theological Seminary and College in Lynchburg, Va.
At the age of 23 she married John E, Causby, of Cleveland, Ohio, moved to Staunton, Va., and opened a beauty shoppe. She operated this shop for four years, and enjoyed the distinction of putting in the first permanent wave, in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. Mme. Causby was the first colored beautician to attend Nestle's School of Permanent Waving, New York City, and proved to be so efficient in her profession that she built an enviable reputation for

the Nestle Process of Waving. Because of this Mr. Nestle asked her to demonstrate for him at the American Hair Dressers' Convention, which was held in the Astor Hotel, New York City. So fast did the news of her unusual ability as dermatologist and beautician travel that she drew trade from the length and breadth of the Shenandoah
Valley, and in less than two months she had trained a number of assistants to take care of her large patronage.
So great was her success at the age of 24 she was the owner of a valuable piece of property on Main street, 30 x 150 feet, lot running through to Frederick street, one of the most beautiful residential sections of
the city, on which she built a lovely home with a housekeeper, gardner and boy to care for the car, always in attendance. After a year's vacation and study she received diplomas from the Rosedear School of Marcelling, Cleveland, and Dr. Parker's School of Dermatology of New York City (white). She then accepted a position as manager of the Lady's Barber and Beauty Shoppe, located at Fourteenth and H streets, northwest, in Washington, D.C.
Mme. Causby's dissatisfied disposition prompted the desire to seek further into the secret of a greater knowledge of keeping young and healthy. This time taking up courses in anatomical science, chirpody and psychotherapy and bath, for which she holds diplomas. She then opened a private salon in her home, where she gav beauty treatments. Vilonet reducing treatments, carbonic sun bath, and other electrical treatments to wealthy white people of this city.
She then turned her attention to the manufacturing of cosmetics. After making satisfactory arrangements with a national laboratory to make some of her 65 different beauty aids, she was persuaded by one of Washington's business men to give this business of manufacturing to Lady Andrew's Company, a local concern. With the promise of 48 hours' service on all cosmetics, her first order was supplied, and a check to cover future orders was deposited. Mrs. Caushy opened her office in the International Building, 1819 F street, with an office force of four (white), and in less than a week's time they had 35 whites and 18 colored ladies selling Caushy's Cosmetics in the homes and shops of Washington.

Unemployment conditions got bad in Delaware and two weeks before Christmas he made his way to South Washington, just across the Potomac river from Washington. Since coming here, he said he had been unable to find work and had to do something to live. He said that he had found other men camped on the hill in the rear of the brick company's land and that he had gathered sheets of tin and

built himself a one-room shack against the side of a tree. An old bed, gotten from the junk pile, old discarded bedding, an improvised stove and one or two other utensils, all saved from the dump heap, completed the improvised home in which the man had lived all winter.
"I didn't know anything about the law burning us up until I saw the fire," Wright said. "Then I came up to where I lived and found nothing but flames with all my bed clothing burned up." The men thus dispossessed spent the night following the fire huddled beside a fire to protect themselves from a bitter cold wind. Many of the men questioned had nowhere to go and neither money or food.
The men working on the dump ranged in ages from 16 to 60. One woman salvager, dressed in men's clothing was among the motley number. Marcus James, a 19-year-old boy, was among the colonists. He said he had been away from his home in Charleston, South Carolina, for two years and that he had been working on the dump for about six months. "I couldn't find anything else to do, and I had to eat," he said.
Company Head Makes Statement
L. T. West, the head of the company, declared that he had not suggested burning the men out. That suggestion, he said, came from Sherif Fields, of Arlington county. "There is no law in the State of Virginia," he said, "which allows the arrest of the men unless they are actually caught destroying private property. For this reason the authorities hit upon the idea of burning the shacks as the only way of getting rid of the men."
Says Action Should be Taken
Mr. Silvers, who stated that he
had been doing business with the
junk salvagers for a long time, de-
clared the act of dispossessing the
men to be "the rankest sort of in-
humanity." He offered to pay part
of necessary attorney's fees to take
action against those responsible for
the act. The junk dealer also
offered the homeless men the privi-
lege of staying at his junk shed
some four miles distant.
Whether legal action against the
West Brothers Brick Company or
the county officials could be taken
remained an open question. While
in one sense the men were tres-
passers, it was stated, that their
acts did not place them beyond the
protection of the law from the un-
warranted destruction of their private
property. The acts of offi-
cials in burning their dwellings
was characterized as "almost arson."
Even if legal action would not lie against the company or the county officials, come form of retribution seemed certain, as various colored citizens in Arlington county and the District of Columbia became incensed at what they termed "the despicable and unfair treatment to a number of unfortunate men who could not get work."
May Boycott Brick Company
The fact that West Brothers Brick Company had as their customers a number of colored contractors and sub-contractors, who purchased large quantities of brick indicated that indirect action might be taken by these contractors to boycott the company. Another interesting angle to the case was revealed when it was recalled that Sheriff Field, who was elected to his position last November, made a number of appeals to the numerous colored voters in Arlington county to support him for election. A political advertisement inserted for Fields in the Washington Tribune for October 30, read as follows: "Vote for Howard B. Fields for Sheriff. A man of high standing and integrity. Fair to all who come in contact with him, regardless of race or color." That Sheriff Fields would be marked for defeat by colored voters the next time he came up for election, seemed the almost certain conclusion as result of his recent action.
Latest census statistics from the Irish Free State show 80 per cent of the young men between 25 and 30 year old to be unmarried.

FRIDAY, MARCH 18, 1932
SOLVING THE HOUSING PROBLEM
Had the Sheriff of Arlington County, Virginia, set fire to a banker's home in Alexandria, he would have been arrested for arson. Had he set fire to the White House it would have been treason. But, to burn 150 or more frame buildings occupied by humble, poor, defenseless Negroes, and making them homeless was discharging his patriotic duty.
The sheriff of Arlington County, Virginia is as guilty of arson as any fire bug ever could be. His method of solving the housing problem for those defenseless poor people was quick and sure, for it made them homeless, as well as jobless in short order.
Now capital and constituted law have joined together, and thrown about 200 homeless, jobless men upon private charity. President Hoover says the United States Government can not and must not help its poor, defenseless, unemployed citizens, notwithstanding the fact that the Constituted law burns the homes of 200 or more American citizens and cast them adrift upon volunteer charity. For the Government to help these poor people would be "a dole", and President Hoover can "dole" out $2,000,000 to capital, to join hands with constituted law that burns poor people's homes with impunity, but that same Government and capital can not lend these poor devils enough money to house them in a decent home. What are we coming to?

It is the prerogative of a newspaper to print the news, not to make it; to record the actions and doings and sayings of people and to advertise their wares.
If the news is bad, then somebody has acted bad. If it is mean, some one is a mean actor. If it is commendable and encouraging, then it is recording the commendable deeds of some one. And so it goes.
Last week we printed a communication from the student body of Howard University which berated the newspapers for printing "unwarranted and cheap publicity given Howard University." We would inform this student council that if Howard University is getting "cheap publicity," then there are "cheap" officials doing very "cheap" things unbecoming the dignity of an official of a great university.
The student council is striking at the wrong end of the game. Take the "cheap" officials to task and shame them into more dignified and honorable activities and you will not see "cheap publicity" of your dear school.
No doubt that "week after week students are interrupted from their quiet study by glaring headlines published in the Negro press." The students seem to forget the beginning of the news and the headlines. Why do they not go to the fountain head, to the bad-acting officials? Get them to see the effect of their actions are having on the students. Of a truth, "There can be no doubt that the students themselves are the ones most seriously harmed by this sensational publicity." Change the "sensational" acting officials and the headlines will change.
Selfishness is the greatest sin in the world, and when it dominates officials of any institution, the days of the life and service of that institution are numbered. When the president and secretary-treasurer of a college will carry their selfish personal fight into the public acts of the institution their usefulness to the institution and to the student body has ended. The students are truly the ones to suffer. A college should exist to train men and women. It is not the personal battleground for selfish officials to fight out their personal grievances.
This is the situation at Howard University. The whole affair is a personal fight between President Johnson and Secretary-Treasurer Scott. One or the other, or maybe both are in the wrong. It is certain that the combat has cut down their usefulness. Therefore, the student body should direct their efforts to secure the resignation of these officials and their replacement with capable unselfish men big enough to realize their duty is to the university and not permit their personal ambitions to mar their service to the university.

This paper has consistently, in season and out of season, wielded its cudgels in behalf of the lawyers of our race. We have believed and still believe that there is no difference except comparatively between the honesty, and intelligence of the legal fraternity of both groups. We have never had excuse for those who pretend to believe that justice may be better obtained by a colored man whose case is pleaded before the bar by a white man than if he were represented by an intelligent colored lawyer.
The myth that cases are settled "over the dinner table" and at social clubs have long ago been expelled. It was always an insult to our judiciary, and never, as far as we have been able to ascertain from inquiry among informed sources, had any justification in the District of Columbia.
But the lawyers have no one to blame but themselves if the confidence of the people has been shaken by recent developments.
With one lawyer under sentence of disbarment for alleged unethical and fraudulent practices and faced with criminal charges in connection with an alleged puerile attempt to substitute papers in a school examination; with another convicted of one alleged attempt to defraud his clients, besides other pending charges alleging criminal misconduct; with another jointly indicted with several others for an alleged conspiracy to sell bar examination papers; with still others publicly accused of charges bordering on extortion and with taking "exhorbitant fees" (whatever that may mean), and many other unrefuted complaints against various members of that profession going the rounds, it seems that the time has come for the lawyers to put their house in order if they expect the continued patronage of our group.
We still have faith in the integrity of the majority of our race lawyers, but it is time the sheep were separated from th goats, or all must bear the consequences of lost prestige together.

THE NEGRO SYMPHONY
ORCHESTRA
Last Thursday evening, the Baltimore Colored Orchestra, advertised as the only colored symphony orchestra in the world, gave its initial bow to the Baltimore public. The orchestra in conjunction to the Colored City Chorus of 300 voices is under the Municipal Music Department and is under the leadership of Prof. Charles Harris and assisted by Prof. W. Luellen Wilson, who directs the Choral Club.
the production, which was indeed creditable, I wish to say just a word as to its worth and merit. I concede that its a dying shame to have to have a "Colored Orchestra." Its criminal to think that here in the "land of the free and the home of the brave" that the people who can play music such as we heard must play with a badge of inferiority attached to their playing. Its an indictment upon our system of government to realize that if a Negro wants to play and enjoy symphony music that he must resort to a "Jincrow" performance to hear it, BUT there will be good to come from that orchestra and this effort at that. No Negro youth, who loves music could help getting inspiration at seeing 85 Negroes playing a selection composed by one of their own group. His heart must swell with a knowledge that a new day is coming when he can have one of his operas played and directed by a Negro organization.
Baltimore in its little narrow way, has opened another field and a new era to Negro musicians and there is hope and opportunities ahead if the youth but caught half of the vision that was disclosed at that concert. Other cities, not half so narrow will seize this same chance to give of its best to the musical and from them will come forth producers and composers not handpicked and trained to wave a baton just as ordered but musicians who will interpret their souls in their own songs and numbers.
Prof. Harris, as pioneer, then we congratulate you and that host of musician and singers who so nobly poured forth their souls to us on last Thursday evening. Truly you ushered in a new era in Negro music.
THE REV. ASBURY SMITH
One Rev, Asbury Smith, a young white minister from in or near Salisbury, Md. (Lynchtown) has saliled forth as a spokesman against the evils of lynchings and the like and has been hailed as a savior among the Maryland colored people.
Far be it from me to throw a stone at the guy who dares say a word against an evil so great as lynching. But the thing that gets my goat is for some white guy to come to US and tell us of the evils of the like. Every Negro who has been in existence for a year or two, know all about it. What we need in the white race is not someone to come to the Negro and say these good things the Rev. Mr. Smith has been palming off to Negroes lately; we need a white man with the courage and convictions to go to his people and say these fine things. The press is open to him; the pulpits and other places are there and we can and will appreciate the coming of a missionary to go to the whites of the land and in no uncertain language say how wrong lynching is. We impute no insincerity to the sky pilot from Lynchtown, we just offer the suggestion that he concentrate his efforts where the most good can be accomplished.
The peculiar thing about the white church is that it has produced no real martrys for Christ within the last several generations. It will mean "death" for any Methodist white preacher to champion the cause of the Negro in America, but if a man would be brave enough to do this, Christianity would score a bull's eye. We wish for Mr. Smith success and courage. He has made a good beginning, what the bishops and high churchmen will make of him remains to be seen. If he can withstand the battle for a few years and is really brave enough to take the war into the white Methodist Conference, I'll take off my hat to him and what is more, I predict the nicest career of any white minister and as stormy a one as ever any abolitionist ever enjoyed. More power and strength to your Brother Smith!
DOWN WITH CONVENTIONS
A few of the more sane thinkers of the group are agitating a plan to dispense with a number of national conventions during the coming season. These are to congratulated and praised. It's a crying, shame the amount of money spent each year in fool conventions and foolhearted shows which mean nothing whatsoever. Usually it's a big parade with a few hundred, or thousand, maybe of sickly looking fellows with enough ribbons and feathers to make an Indian in war regalia look cheap. Down some Main street be-
THE TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, MARCH 18, 1932
KELLY MILLER SAYS:
KELLY MILLER SAYS:
William Monroe Trotter is now turning his sixtieth year. Born in 1872, the span of his life is a fair measure of the advancement of his race from the low grounds of slavery to the higher levels of comparative privilege and, opportunity. Born in Ohio of parents who were in the forefront of racial life and movements, he was early brought to Boston where he graduated with high honors from Harvard University. His father was Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia under the equipped with a parentage and a administration of Grover Cleveland. Thus young Trotter was preparation unexcelled by colored youth before, during or since his day. From his earliest manhood, he, of set purpose, devoted his life and dedicated his career to the civil and political rights of the colored race. For forty years, he has never once swerved from this high objective. Just as he was looming into prominence, Booker T. Washington was captivated and captured the imagination of the American people, with the pacific gospel of performance of duty and fulfillment of obligation rather than emphasis on abstract human rights. Young Trotter abstracted this doctrine to be pernicious. He became his declared and outspoken opponent, and never sought or gave quarters. When James Weldon Johnson was on the front seat of the Booker Washington hand wagon and Dr. DuBois a receptive candidate, Trotter, the intrepidable, cried aloud and spared not those whom he called trucklers and trimmers. He did not spare even me who have sought to always hold the balance true between warring factions. I have always respected and admired Trotter even when I found myself utterly unable to approve his judgment or sanction his methods. For I have always believed that he was fundamentally and genuinely honest. I have more than once said that Monroe Trotter is perhaps the only Negro of education and privilege who has deliberately undergone self sacrifice for his race. Others had nothing to sacrifice. Those who have nothing to lose by serving an unpopular cause deserve their just need of honor; but those who risk all deserve more.
The Guardian was started as an organ of protest against injustice and discrimination. Into this journalistic enterprise, Mr. Trotter sacrificed his patrimony and hypothecated his career. He waived aside the proffered backing of his hind some two-by-four band with a few old sisters panting and blowing over the aches and pains of their poor old dogs in those twisted old white shoes. It's a shame what we do. We think we are entertaining and showing the white folks a thing or two and we are usually showing what clowns and comedians the race has produced in 65 years.
This is not all however, for the same "big fish" from the lodges and clans get the trips over the country and all of the gravity that goes in the splitting. It's time the younger people stopped this sort of exploitation and robbery. It costs money to hold conventions; it costs lots more than the old things are worth and in these hard times the pennies count.
I congratulate these pioneers then who have the courage to sound a warning against them. It may mean their "political death" however, in their lodges. The "grand motes" know that wherever there are, no parades and handling of great cash, there can be no "cuts and trimmings" and any efforts to stop the latter will be dealt with severely. Get ready, younger, people to support savings along all lines, wherever they may be made. Vote against any and everybody who tries to rob and exploit your lodge. Block those needless wastes and when you get sick and down and out there may be enough in treasury to get you a glass of milk. In the name of high heavens, let's quit this throwing away of our hard earnings in making the railroads fatter and a few little men our lords and masters.
Fools—men who waste me, yet many so incline—
Let's hope this fault be not a trait of thine.
Into ages I pass with toils of man each day.
Breeding changes with fate, lest man decay.
Weep not my departing unless you'd be
Deprived by your weeping, more of me.
Since I'm the duration from birth to death.
Use me—for I'm to life God's first bequeath.
J. Reginald Beason.
Alma Mater, the most powerful education and social influence in the nation.
Spectacular incidents stand out in his career. He was put in the common jail for disturbing the peace in breaking up a Booker Washington meeting in Boston. He put Woodrow Wilson on the spot on the segregation issue. He crossed the seas disguised as a servant that he might present th' cause of his race to the Peace Conference. More than once he has dramatized the race issue by bearding the President in the White House.
Mr. Trotter organized the Equal Rights League, which has gone on functioning through all the years along the line of agitation and protest.
It is of the nature of reformers to be domineering and intolerant. Russia is not big enough for Stalin and Trotsky. Trotter has never been able to play ball on any team. Whenever two reformers agree, the suspicion is that one of them is not a true reformer. As result the intrepidable editor, has never been able to build up an effective following. He has seen other organizations flourishing like a bay tree on the growth which he had created, while he and his propaganda have been neglected and rejected. He has never been able to corral public or philanthropic support. The ardor and intensity of his spirit has frightened them, away. Yet he will not compromise or bow his knee to Baal. He has never received reward or compensation for his service to race. Other agitators have fed in green pastures, while the pioneer has nipped short grass.
Monroe Trotter is now sixty years old. His physical powers are abating under the heavy, burden of work and years. His spirit is still willing while the flesh grows weak and weary. Who can appraise the sum total of effect of the effort of this veteran war horse? He has kept open the channel of protest. He has seen others step in and enjoy the soothing effect of the healing waters which he himself had troubled, while he himself stands gingering, shivering on the brink. Is it not worth something to a race to have produced one such self-sacrificing soul which has held the keen eyes of passionate protest for two-fifths of a century. He has stood steadfast and unmovable. He has been true to his inner light from which there has been no varying or shadow of turning.
I suggest a testimonial in celebration of his sixtieth anniversary. Surely the heritage of such a life is well worth while to hold in fee by the race whom he has sought to serve.
WEEK-END MOSAICS
BY ALGERNON B. JACKSON. M. D.
If you will pick up that book of Kipling, called The Jungle Book, you will find the story of the Bandar-log or the Monkey People. Even in the jungle the animals have certain class distinction, caste and pride. However, the Bandar-log do not seem to stand so well among them. Read the story and draw your own consulsions as well as make your own comparisons.
The leaders in jungle life declare that the Bandar-log have no leader. They lie. They have always lied. They have no remembrance. They boast and chatter and pretend they are a great people about to do great things in the jungle, but the falling of a nut turns their mind to laughter, and all is forgotten. "We or the jungle" they sad, "do not go where they go, we do not drink where they drink, we do not eat where they eat and we do not even die when they die." The Bandar-log never, go far. They never get started right. They never do what they set out to do. They play and scamper about upon the throne of a city long in ruins. They sit in circles upon the hall of the king's council chamber and scratch or fleas and pretend to be men. Analogous they are to many we all know who sit in high palaces and do naught, but make faces, pose and fizzle. just pretending to be leaders. That's all.
The Soviet government, working with the Anti-Alcoholic Society, is gradually cutting down Russia's liquor supply of almost a billion dollars a year. Officials claim that Sovietism and alcoholism do not go together.
At present there are no saloons or cabarets or speakeasies there, and liquor may be obtained only from State owned sources. Prohibition is not enforced but the cutting down of alcoholic beverages is being obtained through education.
"IS THIS THE HUMAN THING TO LO?"
Editor of the Tribune:
For the past week the entire world has been disturbed over the kidnapping of the Lindbergh baby. Officers of every city and hamlet have been actively engaged in the search. The United States Congress became so alarmed that stirring speeches were made in order that laws be enacted to prevent such perpetrations. The Chief Executive of the nation was so deeply moved as to discuss this nefarious act with his cabinet and order the Federal officers to give aid in search of the infant.
It is agreed that the kidnapping of infants and adults is fiendish, and every sinew of the law should be stretched to halt such deeds. But is kidnapping more barbaric and more fiendish than the burning, torturing, and lynching of human beings?
Just a few months ago what could have been more fiendish, what should have created more interest from the White House to the Governor's Mansion of Maryland than the foul deed which was perpetrated—the burning and lynching of a human being?
No stirring speeches were made against this dastardly deed on the floors of Congress. Neither was there any mention made of it in the Cabinet meetings, nor were officers of the Department of Justice ordered to Maryland to aid in bringing the perpetrators to justice.
I am wondering if this was "The Human Thing to Do."
C. R. TAYLOR.
ANNA J. COOPER MAKES COMMENT ON THE LINDBERG KIDNAPING AFFAIR.
Editor Washington Tribune:
Allow me to commend the timely and very forceful editorial in last week's Tribune on the Lindbergh case.
The restraint and breadth of human sympathy in this particularly well-written article make it stand out in sharp contrast against the too often hypersensitive, crassly denunciatory and rabid effusions of those who think black, and only black all the time. For after all the agony of that silent Mother-Heart at Sourland Castle, the cynosure at present of the richest and most powerful nation on earth, is no different from the sorrow that wrung the Mother-Heart of Mary weeping over the Crucified One, or of the least "blessed among women," the "unrecorded" Mother of the sinful Judas, or yet again of the lowly and despised Mother of Some black victim of mob fury and rape, whose bitter anguish, unheard and unsung can only spend itself in inarticulate groans as she sits rocking with empty arms folded over the aching void, hugging helplessly her hungry aloneness: "Jes tell 'em I'm hungry for ma chile! You hear? I want's ma chile!"
The same ruthlessness of power and selfish greed has driven the bloody knife into the quivering breast of each bereaved mother, and none can better understand the suffering human heart than they who themselves have suffered
That our country is passing through a baptism of fire under a ruthless reign of gangdom, class suspicion and bitter hatred, no one in his senses will attempt to deny. That the colored people are the only or chief sufferers, or that they can be separated and set over against the suffering as a symbol of retributive justice of an avenging God only an unspeakable egoism and exaggerated self-importance could imagine. Still less that an overruling Providence could design such a cataclysm to teach a monstrous object lesson to a chosen person. And yet the weakest and least articulate element in a self-asserting democracy may well be the test and gage by which to measure the depth and sincerity of its principles and professions. "Inasmuch as ye have done it unto the least." There is no rubbing out the injustice to the Negro—the offense is rank and smells to Heaven. But the American race problem is only a phase of the American ideal and master passion, which is quite frankly and unblushingly the worship of "the Beast."
Power, the big noise, the top notch, the unbeatable record! The under dog in any walk of life is weak, and we don't like weakness. The lowly Nazarene who had not where to lay his head would have a hard time gaining recognition in a land where, the king of law breakers could be sent up only for evading his income tax. Lindbergh himself, who was never a particularly glab talker, and could not pass 1A English at Eastern High School, would not have been hailed across the corner at the avenue unless he had put over a stunt that set the whole world agape, while we prostrate ourselves five times a day before the brilliancy of such minds as Loeb's and Leopold's.
Dazzing achievement, not useful service, is the spur, and the goal to set imaginations tingling and give fresh impetus to hope. The wife of an honest poor man sees success writ larger in any idiotic stunt that she can afford, so she gets out of washing dishes and making beds for the rest of her life by hiring some one to pilot her a short distance over the Atlantic.
BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL
DIGESTING THE NEWS
An approaching election is always a stimulant for new journalistic enterprises. From the extensive records that we maintain we discover that during the past few years there has been as many new newspaper ventures, in the colored field, on the eve of an election, which collapsed immediately after election, as there are bona fide publications that exist year in and year out. Therefore, the launching of a new colored newspaper, in an election year, does not carry with it a very great news value, especially if it be in a field in which our people are very active politically.

Among the new ventures already started, this year, or the proposed ventures, however, comes the announcement of a new colored daily newspaper. In times past, other colored daily newspapers have started, but none have lasted very long.
The circumstances surrounding this new daily are so unusual that they are worthy of being thoroughly digested for the benefit of colored readers. Is this new daily, then, just another attempt to control the colored voters through a daily propaganda sheet? Our answer is "No," as the following facts will indicate, and thus the new daily becomes an epoch in Negro journalism.
This new daily, the Atlanta Daily World, is in the city of Atlanta, Georgia. In former times we have had some very powerful colored politicians there and still have some who are very active and nationally known, but they are not
of the first convenient sailing vessel that comes along, and yet we wonder that young people are frivolous, that high schools and colleges are turning out vain and purposeless puppets, and that we have greater demand for houses of detention, reformatories and jails than for lecture halls, boys' clubs and evening classes. Can organized lay society do anything about it? I believe it can, and I am sure it is as much my duty and privilege as it is that of the richest and most powerful in the community to join vigorous hands with men and women of good will, be they white or black to help "ring in the Christ that is to be."
It may be, as one has said, that it is the hunger for brotherhood that is at the bottom of the unrest of the world, and perhaps after all it is not over production of wheat, but a certain underproduction of the milk of human kindness, somewhere, somehow, that makes one half of the world seem ready to take the other half by the throat. Is there no cure? None better than that enunciated twenty centuries ago—"My neighbor as myself." We have sinned and fallen short, as a nation, as individuals, none excepted. In the pride of our prosperity we have sown the wind and may expect to reap the whirlwind. We have had respect to the high lofty, the lowly we have allowed to be trampled under foot. Well might the prophetic pen of Jefferson write: "I tremble for my country when I remember that God is just."

FORCE HOSPITALS TO TREAT EMERGENCY CASES
Editor, The Tribune:
The article on the front page of your issue of March 4, 1932 in which reference was made of the refusal of two local hospitals refusing to treat an emergency patient who had been shot, refreshed in my mind an incident which occurred about two years ago.
While a number of students were playing baseball on Walker Stadium one of the number was seriously injured when struck in the stomach with a thrown ball. The Homeopathic Hospital, being the nearest, inasmuch as it is located just across the street from the stadium, a few of us assisted him in getting to the hospital. As soon as we reached the hospital we were met by a nurse who promised to send a doctor from one of the upper floors. After about five minutes wait, which is a long time in the case of an emergency, one of the boys went up to the office and asked that a doctor be sent to the emergency room. After another lengthy wait with absolutely no satisfaction, although nurses were continually passing through the corridor, we took the injured boy back into the Dunnair High School armory, and called several hospitals before we could get assistance. A Casualty ambulance was sent to the school and treated the boy.
I made a written report of the incident to the principal of the Dunbar High School, and he in turn referred it to the superintendent, who demanded a report from Homeopathic Hospital offices. All connected with the hospital denied any knowledge whatsoever of the incident.
I suggest that an order be drawn up by the District Commissioners or other responsible parties to the effect that all hospitals, public or private, be compelled to treat all emergency cases, regardless of race, color or creed. May I suggest that the 'Tribune' publish a notice?
Very respectfully yours.
connected, directly, or indirectly with this new daily. Neither do we find the colored people taking any great active part, or holding any important offices, in the city government of Atlanta, nor in the state government of Georgia, for that matter. We do find, however, some young and progressive pioneers in the colored newspaper field there. About four years ago they organized the Southern Newspaper Syndicate and by giving their readers news that was timely and pertinent they built up a large circulation in a chain of World papers in several cities in the south.
When this syndicate first started they must have then had visions of some day publishing a daily for their papers had not been long in the field before t'-vy started the system of issuing two issues a and thus become the only bi-weekly publishers in the field of Negro journalism.
Wi'h their head-quarters at Atlanta and centering their activities there they gradually educated the colored readers out of the habit of reading but one issue of a colored paper a week and not long after they started a tri-weekly. In the meantime securing the best newspaper talent available and now after ne-ly a year of successfully publishing a tri-weekly they have extended their activities still further by publishing six issues a week. By owning several papers, having experienced and trained workers and applying strictly business methods the new daily should prove successful. Congratulations!

Especially can any mother or father sympathize with the Lindberghs in the kidnapping of their little son. Any parent can easily put himself in the place of such unfortunate parents. But it seems clear that the Lindberghs were careless, just plain careless—or that they did not know what sort of country they life in: a country dangerous for millionaires and their children, in may ways. The Lindberghs are not only connected with millions of dollars through the Morrow family, but they have also fame. That was an inducement to kidnapers, who are looking for money. The Lindbergh fame and the Morrow bank account were an awful temptation. It has seemed to us that ever since this child was born, its parents have taken it too much for granted that they were secure in the affection of the American people—and especially Mr. Lindberg has shown a reluctance to do anything that looked like "showing off." If he had been lest modest, he would have had a guard for his house, and a constant companion for his child, who would not lit it out of sight or reach for an instant, waking or sleeping. The Lindbergh desire for a secluded house and retirement from the public gaze called for gurads. Only poor people, and people who have no fame, have the privilege of living unmolested if they be also unprotected. The money which may have to be paid the kidnappers, would have paid for a constant companion for this child for the next 25 years, if needed.
Besides, if the Lindberghs want to be sure of trust and reliability in servants, let them hire Negro servants. Negroes are not connected with gangs. Why, if the Pullman company hired white men as porters on their slepers, the class of whites who would be got into the service would make it dangerous for any millionaire or millionaire's relative to ever go to sleep on one of these Pullman cars. They would be kidnapped, if not murdered and robbed, before they could reach the "next station." If the Lindberghs want to make sure and sleep soundly in the future, let them hire a Negro nurse and a few Negro guards on their estate after they get their child back. In the economic mal-adjustment along the color line, it so happens that much better quality of colored help can be had for a given wage than of white help.
With the Lindberghs we shall hope that the child is at least safe and sound until the very last. After all, this may prove an interesting and not unhelpful adventure and experience for Lindbergh, Jr. When we heard Mrs. Anne Lindbergh's "menu" for the child being broadcast to the kidnapers, we realized that after all there may be some advantage to the child in escaping from such a regime of food and feeding! Perhaps after all it may be a nice little holiday for Augustus, Jr. We trust so, and we wish for the little man a safe landing after his thrilling adventure into the unknown (a Lindbergh habit), and an heroic return home to his suffering mother.

Proctor's court in Disct Supreme Court, Wednesday morning, weeping when Mr. Justice doctor instructed a jury to return directed verdict following argument in which McLauren was urged with theft of certain examination papers from the Frank- Administration Building, lastly.
Justice Proctor flayed the methods used by police and other officers the Franklin Building in trapping McLauren. The court thenvised the jury to return a verdict of not guilty.
In announcing the tactics used entrapting McLauren, Justice actor said he denounced entrapment as encouraging weak persons commit crime. It is no business of the police to tell one to go crime," said Justice Procto
Tempted by Police
"Suppose he had guilty intent, he was tempted and told to do this time by police and Government employees. He was even called the telephone. McLauren never could have gone to Franklin Building if police had not told him to me. The officers and others in his case made a mistake," said the court. "Police took advantage of a weak mind and assisted him this, which is worse than a time," continued the court. Justice Proctor said McLauren was not only called and told to come to Franklin Building, but was even the keys to the locker containing the papers. When Mr. McLauren was freed he left the court on the arm of his wife. Both are sobbing aloud. Friends shed to congratulate them. McLauren was arrested last July he was entrapped in Franklin hiding allegedly taking certainpers and substituting others of passing mark.

aussing grade. He said he visited
ranklin Building and asked H. H.
ong, chief examiner, for permission
to see the papers so that he
light copy the questions and an-
vers and thereby drill his niece
in her defects. He said he was
acustomed to assisting Miss Mc

t to improve her in the subjects
which she had failed.
McLauren denied giving Frank Parker, a janitor at the building, dollar as a bribe to assist in gaining access to the papers. He said long had given him permission to see the papers several times, and in this occasion he went to the building to see Long. When he cached the building he was met by Parker and given the keys and the cabinet in which the papers were kept were pointed out to him by the janitor.
Janitor Was Decoy McLauren said he was copying he questions when he was pounced in by police who were secreted in the room watching. Detective Robert Barrett and John Wise laid he trap which ensnared McLauren,arker, the janitor, was used as a coey by police and called McLauren over the telephone when the cap was laid and ready.
The firm of Howard and Hayes represented McLauren, while Assistant Attorney Goldstein acted as government prosecutor.

$535,000 ADDED TO HOWARD UNIV. THRU AMENDMEN'S
$535,000 ADDED TO HOWARD UNIV. THRU AMENDMEN'S
Sum Of $300,000 Provided For New Library On Campus
Amendments to the amount of $535,000 additional funds to Howard University were attached Monday by the Senate to the Interior Department appropriations bill. One amendment provided $300,000 additional for a new library building on the university campus. The adoption of this item followed a lively debate, with two Senators from the South arrayed against four Senators from the North and West.
Senator Huey P. Long (Democrat) Louisiana, said if Congress can vote funds for a colored institution in Washington, it can vote money for colored education in his own State. Senator Long proposed an amendment calling for $200,000 to the State of Louisiana to use in "eradicating illiteracy among the colored people."
In opposing the amendment, Mr. Long said:
"If we are going into the educational field to make a contribution to one private institution, I should like to see some sympathy and some interest manifested in these thousands and millions of school children in the different States of the Union whose educational opportunities are at this time seriously impaired in these depressed times. I have not seen for them in this body such enthusiasm as some have displayed for the private school in question. Zeal is shown only for this one private institution in the United States. It is proposed even to enter into the field of extravagance to show favoritism-extravagance under the present times and the financial situation, which confronts the country. It is proposed to give them $400,000 to put up a building, and to make the funds available immediately, to give them library facilities or opportunities, when the millions of boys and girls back in the States are not even having the coveted opportunity of a full term in the city or rural schools, this being due to the financial distress which prevails throughout the country, causing curtailment in the school terms in thousands of communities.
"I can not support an amendment to this kind when we are going to neglect and pass by unobserved and unnoticed these millions of ambitious and deserving boys and girls back in the States who just now do not have in full measure the necessary school privilege. I do not think we should lavishly with this institution by providing its students the luxury of library facilities while millions of the youth of the land yearn for that opportunity to which the Senator from Illinois referred, are being neglected, and apparently not even given a passing thought or sympathy by some.
Senator Smoot (Republican) Utah, made the point of order that the Long proposal had not been estimated for by the budget bureau or reported by a standing committee. Senator La Follette (Republican), Wisconsin, in the chair, sustained him.
The amendment increasing the House estimate of $100,000 for a new library building was offered by Senator Henry D. Hatfield (Republican), who recited the history and unique character of Howard University in the education of the Negro.
Three amendments proposed by Senator Edward P. Costigan (Democrat), Colorado, were approved by the Senate. One would increase appropriations for a new power plant at Howard from $300,000 to $460,000; another would increase appropriations for salaries from $450,000 to $475,000, and a third would increase funds for general expenses from $225,000 to $275,000.
Senator Hatfield, Senator Costigan, Senator Lewis (Democrat), Illinois, and Senator Keen (Republican), New Jersey, spoke in favor of the increased appropriations, while Senator Long and Senator Trummlm (Democrat), Florida, argued it would be discriminatory not to make similar provisions for colored institutions in the States. In speaking in support of the amendment, Senator Hatfield said:
amendment Senator Hatfield said: "The Federal Government is justified, therefore, in supporting this institution, because it is the only complete university organization in the United States ministering directly to the colored people, receiving any support so far from State or Federal tax; it is an institution which is carrying forward a comprehensive and fundamental group of services to this large group of our citizens, and is carrying it forward with a purpose and

Impressive Funeral Services Held for Armstrong Student
Impressive funeral rites for Elsie Randall, Armstrong High School junior, were held last Saturday from the Beulah Baptist Church, of which she had been a member for six years. The girl died at her home, 6110 Clay street, northeast, last Monday, after an illness which lasted only five days. Miss Randal was a graduate of the Burrville School and a member of the Junior Auxiliary Board and B.Y.P.U. of the Beulah Baptist Church. At Armstrong, Miss Randall was a member of the Girl's Glee Club and Swimming Club. Cadet officers of the school acted as Lovingie Burrel, Helen Proctor, Marie Day, Hope Carroll, and Sarah Hawkins served as flower girls. The school glee club rendered two hymns, "Crossing the Bar" and "Deep River." A solo, "Face to Face," was also sung.
Pall bearers were Hillary Hamilton, Gilmor Walker, Archie Skipper, William Kenneth Ballard, Joseph Overton, and James Fuller. Interment was at Harmony Cemetery.
DEPRIEST OPENS NAT'L TRAINING SCHOOL DRIVE
This week, Congressman Oscar DePriest opened the 1932 drive for the National Training School for Women and Girls, of which Miss Nannie H. Burroughs is president. Those who worked with him in the city-wide drive last year are going out for funds again this year.
Mrs. Julia West Hamilton is the vice-chairman; Dr. John R. Hawkins, treasurer; Mr. Morris Lewis, secretary; and Miss Ruth Jefferson, assistant secretary.
The plan this year is quite simple when we take into consideration that last year the committee not only raised money, but conducted a successful campaign of education. Hundreds. of people were enlightened as to the type and scope of the work of the National Training School. The plan this year is to have a set up of a Citizens' Committee composed of 100 persons, who will in turn get ten persons each to work on a team with them. Each team is asked to raise $100.
Another fine plan this year is that 100 additional persons will be asked to solicit with coupon books. The books hold $30 in dimes, quarters and half dollars. It is a very fine plan and everybody can give something.
At the opening meeting in the Y.W.C.A., Congressman DePriest stated that the school is hard hit not only by the depression, but is seriously handicapped by the 1931 deficit which it failed to wipe out last year. He said the institution needed $15,000. Our 1931 committee raised $7,762.91. This satisfied the creditors of the institution for the time being, but left $7,237.09 unpaid. The creditors have been patient. We can and should finish up the old debt and give something to help on the expenses of this year. The burden is heavy. All should help carry it. The school is most worthy, and is entirely dependent on public contributions.
Three-fourths of the entire income is from colored people of all denominations throughout the country. This evidence of general interest, though the gifts come in very small amounts, is most unusual and a high tribute to the school, and a credit to the race. The contributions from the States are practically cut off by the depression. Washington is not as seriously affected by the depression as the States. We who live here should therefore make sacrifices to sustain the work during these hard times. Furthermore, there are people who believe in helping those who help themselves. This is the time to to them what the race has done to build an institution for our girls. In a crisis like this they should help, and they will help, if you will help us reach those whom you know.
Remember also that Washington has not been called on to give anything since April, 1931. Every worthy cause should be helped at least once a year. The school has always served this community in many ways. The students serve churches and organizations in special programs.
The institution gives employment to a number of Washington people. It represents a fine spirit of co-operation. The faculty is made up of women of all denominations, and all denominations are represented in the student body, including Catholics. The president gives herself to the service of the entire race.
The heads of teams will be announced next week.

DEAN HOUSTON DEMANDS OPEN FIGHT
On March 11, I wrote the enclosed letter to the editor of The Afro-American protesting against a distorted account of certain proceedings in the Howard University Council, and against the whole policy of anonymous attacks against Howard University in that paper. The Afro-American in its issue of March 19, published that part of my letter which corrected the account of the proceedings in the council, but omitted to publish the part protesting against the anonymous attacks. I will appreciate it if you will publish the letter in full, in order that my position may be absolutely plain.
Yours sincerely,
Charles H. Houston.
The Letter
March 11, 1932.
The Editor,
The Afro-American,
Baltimore, Maryland,
Dear Sir:
Your anonymous special correspondent in your issue of March 12 purports to give an account of the defeat of the University Council of an "administration" measure to recommend annual tenure for all employees in the university. In the first place he misstates the facts. In the second place he misinterprets them. I trust you will publish this true statement in your next issue with the same publicity given the original article.
The following are the true facts: The University Council and the faculties are engaged in a study of the existing laws and regulations of the university with a view of recommending to the board of trustees such revisions as are necessary or desirable to improve the organization and administration of the university.
On March 1, 1932, the executive committee of the council was considering certain recommendations to be placed before the full council. As a member of the executive committee I exercised my prerogative to introduce before the committee a proposal that in the future all part-time teachers be appointed on an annual basis. The proposal did not touch full-time teachers at all, and did not affect part-time teachers now on the faculties because the proposal expressly stated that it was not to have retroactive effect. The executive committee adopted and recommended the proposal to the full council.
When the proposal was read before the full council, as chairman of the executive committee I was called on to explain it. I did so, stating the reasons both pro and con. My colleagues from the School of Law, Judge Cobb, opposed it, and the council sustained him.
I assume full responsibility for introducing the proposal to the executive committee. I attempted to assume full responsibility for the proposal on the floor of the council, but the executive committee insisted that it be a committee measure. At all events, it was not an "administration" measure. It represented a position I had consistently taken in the faculty of law, and my colleague, Judge Cobb, admitted in debate.
Now the interesting thing in the whole matter—which may have some bearing on the recent publicity at Howard University—is that the proposal was made in writing, and a copy placed in the hands of every member of the council present. No one was in the meeting except a stenographer, the president's assistant, Mr. Bunche, and the members of the council. The stenographer and Mr. Bunche would have no reason to put out this false report. Obviously this places responsibility on some council member who had a motive to distort the facts. There is no way in which a written proposal which did not affect a single individual now in the service of the university could be twisted into a prosal affecting every employee now in the service of the university. Personally I have no objection to publicity concerning the administration of Howard University. Howard University is a public institution; its officers are public servants; and the public has a right to be informed about and pass its opinion on their official acts. But the public is entitled to the truth, and the officials are entitled to be confronted with the persons who misrepresent their actions.
Open differences of opinion make for healthy development. But there can be no possible justification for undercover ante-bellum tactics within the university. It seems to me that we have been emancipated long enough to lose the old slave habit of slipping around after dark to whisper in the Master's ear. All power to the man who rights in the open; but how long will the
WOODSON ADDED TO ARMSTRONG FACULTY
One of the youngest members of the Armstrong faculty is Granville Writt Woodson, temporary physics teacher for one year. Mr. Woodson is a graduate of Dunbar High School, class '26. He received his A.B. from the University of Pittsburgh, and took his post graduate work at Howard University. Mr. Woodson, who majored in civil engineering at Pittsburgh, was awarded the Van Boule scholarship during his freshman year and the Avery scholarship during his third and fourth years. He was also awarded a fellowship in physics at Howard University.
Mr. Woodson is the son of Mr. Howard D. and Mrs. Pauline Writt Woodson, and has been a resident of Washington all of his life excepting his years spent in Pittsburgh. He is a member of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity.
TAXI DRIVER HELD FOR ASSAULT, OUT ON BOND
Herbert L. Moon, taxicab driver and brother of Ellis P. Moon, well-known undertaker, was released on $300 bond following his demand of a jury trial when arraigned before Judge Isaac I. Hitt in Police Court, Wednesday, on a charge of assault. The case has been set for March 30.
Moon is accused of striking a white driver with a crank during an altercation Sunday, while carrying the children of Professor Robert H. Mattingly to Sunday school. The argument which started the fight is alleged to have begun when the white driver forced Moon to drive into the curb, causing slight damage to his machine. Attorney B. L. Gaskins represents the defendant.
WHAT CAN WE DO?
To the Editor:
Permit me to take this liberty to sincerely thank you, members of the Board of Education, Community Center Department, relatives and friends for their exhibited interest in my sad experience of May 27, 1931.
Last Thursday, March 10, Officer Eugene D. Lambert and Louis E. Hazzard, who jointly assaulted me on the former date, were exonerated by a jury in Criminal Court No. 1, of the Supreme Court of the District. A crashing victory for the "brave, courageous, encient officers" using the words of the renowned O'Shea, their counsel. What an honorable counsel, but why give him credit for the victory when it rightly belongs to the United States.
Mr. Slorica, a black haired, bright eyed, keen looking gentleman who represented the Government, throw up the sponge and gave Mr. O'Shea an opportunity to score a knockout; and with it another black page of justice was turned. As the old story goes, blood is thicker than water, and where a Negro meets a white in search of justice a decision is rarely favorable to the colored citizen. The Department of Justice agents who caused these officers to be brought before a grand jury and indicted for cruelty were brave, courageous men. Their thorough investigation and true spirit should be commended. Surely we have been mistreated by the hands of policemen long enough. Can't something be done? Are we to be continually mistreated? There is no justice for us. What are we to do?

LAST RITES HELD FOR W. C. THIGPEN
Students, Co-Workers And Friends Pay Homage To H. U. Employee
Hundreds of fellow workers, students and friends gathered in the Rankin Memorial Chapel of Howard University, Monday, to pay final tribute to Welborn C. Thippen, Howard University carpenter and employee of the Department of Engineering, who died at his home, 1431 Q street, northwest, Friday. The services were conducted by the Rev. R. W. Brooks, pastor of the Lincoln Temple Church, of which the deceased was a member.
Eulogies were also said by Rev. B. D. Pratt, of the Howard University School of Religion; Dr. John Hope, who represented Dr. Mordecai Johnson, and Dean Lewis Downing, head of the Engineering Department. The speakers extolled Thigpen for his faithful service and his mild and unassuming attitude. Many floral tributes were received including ones from the Howard Board of Trustees, students of applied science department, and members of the Washington Tribune staff. Burial was at the Lincoln Memorial Cemetery. Born in Centerville, Ga., Thigpen moved to Lake City, Fla., at the age of 15. He came to Washington in 1917, and gained employment at Howard, where he has worked ever since. About a year ago Thigpen received a patent on an invention on the manufacturing method of inlaid lamps.
Besides his widow, Mrs. Annie Thigpen, the deceased is survived by two children, Mrs. Willie T. Smith and William G. Black, advertising salesman of the Washington Tribune; four brothers, Aubrie, Stevens B. Thigpen, and Anthony Pearson; and five grandchildren.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — In line with the South's efforts to increase the use of cotton in all forms, R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company of Winston-Salem, N.C., has announced that its stationery is now being made of cotton cloth. The Reynolds Company, manufacturers of Camel Cigarettes, Prince Albert smoking tobacco, and other tobacco products, does a world-wide business and is one of the largest, if not the largest business firms in the country to go cotton. The cotton cloth stationery is used exactly like paper, and readily takes ink, typewriting and printing. Cotton stationery used by the Reynolds Company is purchased in wholesale lots and advertises the United States' cotton crop to business associates in all parts of the world.
Vocational Guidance At Armstrong High
In Armstrong there is a vocational guidance committee, whose function and purpose is to help acquaint students with the avenues open to them after graduation and the requirements of various vocations and avocations in which they may engage. This is accomplished by means of lectures to the s'ident body and by detailed classroom study of various occupations. One home room period of thirty minutes a week is devoted to this activity. Speakers for assemblies are chosen from the various businesses in the local community. Frank discussions concerning the requirements of automobile servicing, automobile repairing, and printing have been held, and in the future the committee hopes to have speakers tell about poultry raising, sign painting, battery repair work, dry cleaning, automobile painting, architectural drawing, brick laying, house repair, etc.
The committee has presented programs on vocational guidance at five boys' assemblies. The speakers at these assemblies were West Hamilton, Beltran Barker, Kenipe, G. A. Ferguson, and J. C. Webster, both of the Armstrong faculty. They also presented Miss Marion Conover, of Southeast House, at the first girls' assembly on vocational guidance. The committee is doing a very commendable piece of work in helping these boys and girls to take definite steps in planning a successful life's work.

HOME-COMING OF MADAME EVANTI
Washington is astir this week with extensive preparations for the grand home-coming of Madame Lillian Evanti. It is often said that a prophet is not without honor save in his own country, but the citizens of Washington are trying to show that this does not apply in the case of Madame Evanti. She was born here, was educated in our schools, and served with us until she went abroad for her career.
The Washington people take pride in the fact that she is one of them and feel that in doing her honor they honor also themselves. That her high position in the musical world has been attained by her own dint of energy makes her record appeal still more favorably to her fellow citizens in the District of Columbia. These friends, therefore, are determined that no reception given her abroad shall excel the demonstration in Washington.
The tickets for the recital at the Belasco Theatre at 3:30 p.m., on the 20th are selling rapidly; at the same time, too, much interest is being manifested in the reception at the Y.W.C.A., where Madame Evanti will receive the people later that day.
Referring to Madame Evanti's recent triumph with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, the Free Press of the city said:
"The season's most important singing came in the way of a surprise, Saturday night, at the concert of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, when Lillian Evanti, coloratura soprano, of Washington, D.C., appeared as soloist.
There had been nothing promised nor a great deal said of the remarkable young vocalist, who was returned time after time to accept bows. Such startlingly fine florid work has not been heard here in some time. It brought to mind the Galli-Curci of yore.
"Miss Evanti, who has enjoyed considerable operatic successes abroad, sang two Arias, one, the Bellini" "Que la Voce," from "I Puitani," an almost impossible number, so great are its demands, and the Verdi "Ah fors' e lui," from "Traviata." The latter song is not far behind in vocal requirements.
The soloist's legato tones ring with trueness. They are soft and clear, exceptionally beautiful. Her coloratura effects are hardly believable for their smoothness, their rapidity and intonation. The ease with which the young and attractive soprano sings only adds to the pleasure."

ARMOND SCOTT ADDRESSES ELKS IN BALTIMORE
Tells Baltimoreans Negroes Could Hold Balance of Power in Civic Affairs
In a speech delivered, Tuesday night, March 15, at a mass meeting in the auditorium of Monumental Lodge of Elks, Baltimore, Md., Attorney Armond W. Scott, of this city, past grand enlisted ruler of Elks, in discussing leadership said: "This, and all other organizations of the race ought to take a lively interest in the civic, economic, and political affairs of the community.
"In this city the Negroes could hold the balance of power, and thus, better the civic, material, and political interests of our group, if they were proudly united.
"How about our leadership. The lack of conscientious leadership is our greatest drawback today. Hungry leadership is a dangerous leadership. In all walks of life we are too often led by a gang of hungry, banjo-headed, cow-towing hunters, who care nothing about the interests of the people they pretend to lead.
"But the fault is more in you than in them. They could not occupy those positions unless the people permitted them."
Power of the Ballot
"We ought to stop voting for one party like a lot of sheep, but for men and women who stand one hundred per cent for human rights.
"Pu-Yi, the Chinese betrayer of his people, regarded by the western world as the pupet of Japan, is but typical of our leadership of today, ready at all times to sell out the race for a mess of potage."
