Chicago Primaries April 12; DePriest In Race HAWKINS WILL NOT HEAD NATIONAL BENEFIT 'N.A.A.C.P Sunday' in 68 Churches Here, April 3rd CAPITAL WEEKLY THREE CHICAGO MEN RUNNING FOR CONGRESS DePriest And Anderson On Republican Ticket, Brown With Democrats CHICAGO — (ANP) — Entering upon the final stretch of the present campaign which terminates April 12 when the primary election will be held, candidates for the various and sundry offices are unleashing everything in the effort to prove to the vvoters that they reserve their support. While there is a great deal of interest in the race for every job, it seem to pale into insignificance when compared with the Congressional race between Congressman Oscar De Priest and Alderman Louis B. Anderson, both of whom are well known throughout the districts as "regular campaigners." According to the number of people who have attended the meetings of the two candidates, Congressman De Priest has had a light advantage. His meetings, held at the armory of the Eighth regiment have out-stripped, as far as attendance is concerned, the Anderson meetings. With such political leaders as Roscow Conklin admits, who is championing the De Priest call with all of his eloquence and enthusiasm, William L. Lawson, who ran against the late Congressman Martin B. Madden or the position, William E. King, late assemblyman, and Alderman R. R. Jackson, as his lieutenants, the Congressman is leaving no tone unturned to assure his election. The Anderson followers, on the other hand, are just as enthusiastic as to the chances of the alderman being elected Congressman and his organization is functioning with the old time smoothness under the leadership of such men as George T. Kersey, George W. Blackwell and Charles A. Griffin. These champions of the Anderson cause declare that he will be elect-d. Each candidate has made an intense campaign and as the race bears its end, the campaign gains momentum. Alderman Louis B. Anderson when asked for a statement as to the outcome of the fight for the (Continued on page. 6) ALDRIDGE LOSES 3D APPEAL FROM ELECTRIC CHAIR Court of Appeals Holds Sentence of Slayer of Cop Must Stand Alfred Scott Aldridge twice convicted of the murder of Policeman Harry J. McDonald must die in the electric chair May 6 when the District Court of Appeals affirmed the conviction of Aldridge Monday. The officer was killed July 6, 1929. The court said that it was asked to set aside the conviction on the grounds that the trial judge in the District Supreme Court had improperly instructed the jury on probable guilt. The Appellate Court found that there had been no error in this charge. Another error that was cited as a basis for new trial was the failure of Justice Peyton Gordon, who was the trial justice to instruct the jurors to manslaughter. The Appellate Court said that here was no evidence tending to how that such a charge was necessary and thus, it was held, it was not necessary for the judge to instruct along those lines.

Glassford, in reply to a letter that appeared in the Tribune last week. His letter follows: March 23, 1932 "Editor, The Washington Tribune, "Dear Sir: Inclosed please find clipping from your paper, quoting letter from Frederick Smith, 510 Rhode Island Avenue, N.W., and an anonymous communication received in the mail this morning alleging that orders have been given to the Police Trial Board not to convict any officers accused of brutality against black men or women, and threatening race riot. "During my administration as Superintendent of Police (since November 16, 1932) I have never attempted in any way to influence the Trial Board. As a matter of fact the Police Trial Board is a function of the District of Columbia Government separate and apart from the Police Department, and an attempt on the part of the Superintendent of Police to influence the Board in the hearing of a case would be unethical and productive of charges of conduct unbecoming his office. "The aim of the Police Department has been to impartially enforce the law, and as the head of the force my efforts will be directed to securing for the citizens of the District of Columbia the utmost possible efficiency. The department appreciates your cooperation in this endeavor. The following is the letter that appeared in last week's Tribune, to which Maj. Glassford refers: "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.

A check up by a Tribune reporter revealed that all of the colored persons in the parade or demonstration were entirely ignorant of Communistic teachings. None of them had ever heard of Soviet Russia and cared less. They saw a chance to get a possible free meal and an opportunity to "see the sights" so they joined in. The Tribune also found that none of the colored "Hunger Marchers" knew what is was all about, altho Communists make a lot of noise about having a large Negro following. Pelham D.

NEW BUILDING FOR PHELPS SCHOOL PROMISED A $315,000 Transfer Will Balance 1933 Building Budget A new building is promised for the Phelips Vocational School for boys for 1933. If allowed, the n building will be erected on the 42-acre-track at 24th and Benning Road, northeast, where the Young Platoon School and the Brown Junior High have been erected. The plant will cost about $315,000, the amount to be transferred from division 1 to 9 to divisions 10-13. An exclusive interview with first Assistant Superintendent, Garnet C. Wilkinson, gives the details of securing the $315,000. Mr. Wilkinson said: "The Budget for 1933 for the support of the public schools of the District of Columbia, as originally submitted to Congress by the Bureau of the Budget, carried only $334,000, or 19.6 per cent of the appropriations for school buildings and grounds, for colored schools. "Congress provided ir 1864, and again in 1866, that appropriation for school buildings and grounds of the District of Columbia should be provided on the basis of the relative school population, white and colored. At present the colored school children constitute 33.9 percent of the entire school population in the District of Columbia. If, therefore, there should be equality of educational opportunity for colored and white children in the District of Columbia as represented by (Continued on page two) car are turning.

REFUSES AFTER BEING ELECTED INSURANCE HEAD Stockholders Meet In Annual Session And Elect New Board Directors Hawkins says— In an interview over the telephone Mr. Hawkins, thru his secretary, from his sick room, stated that he has never given his consent or his name to be used for any office in connection with the National Benefit Life Insurance Company.

H. Rutherford resigned as president, Mr. Risher said: "Our board of directors assume that we are the only board of directors of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company according to the by-aws and code of the company. We do not recognize the meeting of the so-called stockholders on Thursday, headed by Judge Cobb, as a legal meeting. "We propose as the board of directors and officers of the company, that until our successors shall have been legally elected and qualified, the business of the company shall not be taken from our hands. "It is our plan" said Mr. Risher, "to call a meeting of the stockholders as soon as we can determine who the legal stockholders are.

"If man dies shall he live again?" Is there a life beyond the grave? Virginia Seminary had the unique pleasure of hearing a judge on these stupendous questions at a special Easter service at 4 p. m., in the college chapel last Sunday. Judge Don P. Halsey, who spoke on Evidences of immortality, is author of an interesting book on that title. Judge Halsey pointed out that one can not prove the truth of immortality by mathematical process. Neither can science nor philosophy reveal the hidden secrets of immortality. It is a thing to be believed and not to be reasoned out as one does a purely logical and concrete question. But the Judge stressed his belief that a just God could hardly fail to make the soul of man immortal. The Virginia Seminary, chorus, under the direction of f Miss K. Evelyn Warren, furnished special Easter music. Melvin Wright sang a solo, and Miss Rotann from Washington, D.C., gave a no solo. On account of the threatening weather only a partial report of the workers in the Easter campaign was made to the school campaign committee. The campaign committee plans to collect from all workers so that a complete report of the campaign can be made at the regular mid-monthly service on Sunday, April 10, at which time Garnet, C. Wilkerson, assistant superintendent of the public schools of Washington, will deliver a special address.

They're right too, but what others don't realize is the great responsibility resting in mother's hands to keep this little mite well and happy. If he's fretful and restless at night, even poor Daddy will get no sleep. Smart, modern mothers save daddy and babies both from annoyance of this kind. They don't "just let their babies grow up" but study the actual causes of fretfulness and disease. They know from great baby specialists that most of baby's ills come from one common cause, a constipated condition. Little bowels are delicate and close up quickly. Then baby is poisoned by accumulated wastes and is subject to fevers, colds and digestive upsets. These wastes must be expelled if baby is to be relieved and relax into quiet, health-building sleep. To accomplish this nothing is better than genuine Castoria, the time-proven children's remedy. Its action is so gentle that it can be safely given to relieve colic pain in a tiny infant.

Isn't He S yone says it is excellent for children all the way up into school age. Castoria, you know, is a pure vegetable preparation made specially for babies and children. Although it is mild in action it does the work. Children love the taste, too. You don't run the risk of upsetting children further when you give them Castoria. Modern mothers have Castoria on hand always, to help them keep children well. They don't wait till baby is actually sick. Remember that bad breath, sniffing, coated tongue, and digestive disturbances may be the sign of approaching illness unless attention is paid to them at once. A single dose of Castoria often clears up any one of these conditions, saving mother a good deal of worry and trouble. At all good drug stores.

(WPS)—Breaking camp on March 25, the Pittsburgh Crawfords started out on their exhibition series. The schedule not only imposes a test on the transportation facilities of the club, but affords a severe test on the diamond. The first stop at Monroe, La., is one which might be remembered for some time to come. These hard hitting slabmen were pennant winners last year in the Dixie League, and gave a very good account of themselves in the Southern League series. From Monroe they go to Marshall, Texas, then to Houston, Texas. From Houston they jump to Alcorn, Miss., where Bill Foster holds forth. After this engagement the team travels to Omaha, Neb., for a week's engagement. From Omaha to Nashville, then to Birmingham. In Texas, the Crawfords will face all college nines, but Omaha, Nashville and Birmingham will present a salaried line-up selected for the season. All told, the series is well selected as a primer for tough Eastern and Southern League clubs which the Crawfords must face during the season. The schedule is as follows: Monroe Monarchs, March 25, 27 Bishop College, Marshall, Texas, March 28. Wylie College, Marshall, Texas March 29, 30. Texas College, Tyler, Texas March 31, April 1. Houston, Texas, April 2, 3. Alcorn College, Alcorn, Miss. April 5, 6. Omaha, Nebraska, April 9-17. TEAMS URGED TO SEND IN PLANS Baseball season is here.

Send all communications and news to the Baseball Editor, Washington Tribune, 920 U street, N. W. Here's to the great American sport and a banner year. HAMPTON TO HOLD TRACK MEET HAMPTON TO HOLD TRACK MEET Open Championship At Sea Side Institute Will Attract Large Field HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Va.—Arrangements are being perfected for holding the eleventh track and field meet at Hampton Institute on Armstrong Field, Saturday, May 14th. At the last annual meeting of the C.I.A.A. it was voted to hold the annual track and field championships at Howard University on May 21, 1932. For the first time the C.I.A.A. Championships will be closed, only members of the association taking part. The open meet this year was voted to be held at Hampton. All of the leading colleges and high schools in the country will be invited to take part in the Hampton meet. There is unusual interest in track this season because of the widespread interest in the coming Olympics to be held in Los Angeles in July and August. A number of Negro athletes are planning to enter the Olympic try-outs. If any exceptional men are discovered in the C.I.A.A. meets this year they will be entered in the Olympic try-outs. There will be sixteen collegiate events and eleven scholastic events. Beautiful gold, silver, and bronze prizes will be awarded for first, second and third places in every event. There will be special trophies to be competed for—intercollegiate and scholastic point trophies, national high school mile relay and collegiate mile relay trophies. Each year larger crowds are witnessing our track and field meets. This shows a growing interest on the part of the public and the participants. There is every indication, that during the next few years we will see a much wider participation in track and field sports on the part of our high schools and colleges.

LEE STARS AS "Y" BIG FIVE WINS LEE STARS AS "Y" BIG FIVE WINS In a fast moving basketball game the Twelfth Street Big Five defeated the Manchester A.C. Saturday in the Garnet-Patterson gymnasium, 45-39. The winners established an early lead and were ahead at half time, 21-19. The Manchesterers made a strong bid during the second half but could not match the accurate shooting of Lee and Jefferies. With Everett Davis and Adams locating the cards frequently, coupled with the hawk-like guarding of Bruce and Hall the Big Five could not be denied. Eddie Davis, "Y" star forward, who is convalescing, played the last two minutes of the game. Holland and Dyson stobd out prominently for the losers, the latter being plenty of trouble to the winners. Wildeats Claw A 35-25 Victory BORDENTOWN, N.J. — Newark Y.W.C.A. fell victim to a surprising Bordentown school five. Saturday, when the school boys ran wild against the visitors to win, 35-25. The previous record of the Newarkers favored them to win, even on the Bordentown court, but from the opening whistle the Wildcats had a decided edge. Clean-cut defense work marked the turning-point in the game in Bordentown's favor, for the "Y" quintet could not work the bal bast the center mark, and failed to make their many long tries. It was Bordentown's first victory against a North Jersey five this season. SSS Builds Neutral Blood SMILE, MEU, SMILE New For Shaves Without A Razor Here it is!

BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL NEWS OF THE SPORT WORLD Don't Gamble with your kidneys and bladder INSIST ON THE GENUINE GOLD MEDAL HAARLEM OIL CAPSULES BALTIMORE RUN LISTED APRIL 23 Eighth Annual Health Week Marathon to be Held By Urban League BALTIMORE. Md.—Invitations and entry blanks have been sent out to high schools, colleges and clubs in Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia, and the District of Columbia for the eighth annual trans-city Health Week marathon which will be run through the city streets here on Saturday, April 23. The race, sponsored under the joint auspices of the Baltimore Urban League, is a prominent windup feature in the celebration of National Negro Health Week being in all probability the only affair of its kind held in direct conjunction with Health Week anywhere in the country. In previous years the official entry list has slown close to 100 starters. Handsome prizes, including a cup and gold medal to the individual winner and a cup to the winning team have been provided, in addition to a trophy for breaking the course record of 19 minutes, 44 seconds, for the 3.5 mile trek and a silver medal to the second runner to finish. There will also be bronze medals for the next ten runners to finish and a special trophy for the first Baltimore contest to finish. Joseph Byrd, Lincoln University student, won the race last year, and the Washington Y. M.C.A. captured the team trophy. The race is open to all bona fide amateurs who are in good standing with their schools or organizations. Communications should be addressed to E. S. Lewis, secretary, 1538 Division street, Baltimore. The deadling for entries has been set for mid-night of Saturday, April 16. TEDDY ADAMS IS RASSLIN' VICTOR Tosses "Oily" Washington In Main Bout of Y.M.C.A. Mat Card Teddy Adams, 135-pound "Y" wrestler, tossed Oily Washington, Tuesday night, in the main feature of the Twelfth Street Y.M.C. A. wrestling card. Adams won with an airplane spin after thirty minutes. Washington had Adams on the defense during the first twenty minutes of action, and appeared to be a sure winner. Because of the difference of weight the scheduled feature between Rough House Gordan and Ed James, star wrestler of the Draud Hill Avenue Y.M.C.A., of Baltimore was called off. Gordon scaled 180 pounds while the visitor weighed only 162 pounds. James later went ten minutes with Norman Jenkins and five minutes with Billy Hunter in an exhibition. The Baltimore lad showed plenty of class in both matches. Other matches follow — Billy Hunter, 150 pounds, tossed Jim Rowe, 164 pounds, in seventeen minutes with a hammer lock; Red Plumme, 154 pounds, won from Rusty Terry, 133 pounds, in fifteen minutes; Rough House Gordon, 180 pounds, went ten minutes in an exhibition with Red Plumme.

Cole, new owner of the American Giants Baseball Club, and newly-elected vice-president of the Southern League, of which the local team is a member, indicate that the 1932 season, which will be opened here April 23, will be inaugurated in a very auspicious manner.

Baseball Continued As Sport At Knoxville KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Batting practice, base running, pitching and catching are all the order of the day on the Knoxville College athletic field as Athletic Director Wallace O. Hawkins begins to build his baseball team. Preparations are being made for a short schedule with little traveling. Baseball is fading as a college sport and many colleges have dropped it entirely, but baseball is one of the traditions at Knoxville and interest here is far from dead. STRONG BASEBALL TEAM FOR LEGION That the American Legion Walker Post will be represented by a formidable junior nine, is practically assured. With four erstwhile Sheil Athletic Club performers, five Columbia Cub natives, three 1931 Post players, one Gladiator performer and four others, Manager Young should have an easy time picking a stellar nine. Those to represent the Walker Post are, "Mickey" Stripling, Washington, Audrick, Gray and Webb all former Sheil performers; Fearing, Stewart, Tignor, Mervin Brooks and Jackson of the Cubs; Johnson, "Bill" Brooks and Brisbon, of the '31 Post nine; Miller, of the W St. Tigers, Strong of the Gladiators and four new aspirants in the persons of "Ruddy" Stripling, Marshall, Best and Blair. The twirling end of the battery staff will consist of Washington, Fearing, Miller and "Ruddy" Stripling, with the first three slated to see much action. The receiving end of the same group will bring a heated battle for supremacy between "Mickey" Stripling and Mervin Brooks, both versatile performers. The infeld aspirants will see another fight at initial sack between Jackson and Webb, with Blair probably at the keystone sack and Stewart cavorting at the shortstop position aided by Tignor at the hot corner, rounding out the inner defense. There will be an honest to goodness scramble for gardening positions with Gray, Audrick and Johnson as the prospective survivors. Best, Brisbon, Strong, and "Bill" Brooks will most likely serve as understudies. Games after the high school series are being sought by Don Webb at Columbia 9231. Three-fourth of the club is comprised of senior high school performers. FEMALE TEAMS VIE FOR LOCAL DIADEM Y.W.C.A.

However, I will state that we expect to have a definite statement regarding the exact status of the company within the next two weeks." ***** Dr. John R. Hawkins was elected president of the board of directors of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company at an annual meeting of the stockholders at the Twelfth Street Branch of the Y. M.C.A. Thursday afternoon. The newly elected board of directors and the stock voted by each is as follows: Judge James A. Cobb, (75); Charles B. Lee, (352); Louis C. Washington, (402); Dr. William G. Lofton, (52); Rev. W. H. Jernigan, (1); A. B. Ridley, (100); J. H. Braxton (139); Miss Nannie Brougheux, (1); Dr. John R. Hawkins, (5); William H. King, (18), and T. J. Ferguson, (5). 10,697 Shares Represented Of the total of 25,000 shares of stock in the company there were 1,954 shares represented in person and 8,743 by proxies. This was a total of 10,697 shares of stock of the company represented at the meeting. The 9,000 shares in liti- gation was not voted at the meeting. The meeting scheduled for 10 am. was not called to order until after 12. The delay was due to the presiding officer, Judge James A. Cobb who was detained. The Rev. Jernigan acted as temporary chair- man. Washington Vice President Other officers elected were Louis C. Washington, of Chicago, first vice-president; Charles B. Lee, former treasurer, was elected to the same office while Dr. William G. Lofton was named secretary and medical director. The only sour note struck in the entire meeting was when the Rev. Augustus Lewis strenuously objected to placing any one on the board who owned less than two shares of stock. Miss Nannie Burroughs and the Rev. Jernigan were owners of one share each. In a firing speech the Rev. Lewis said these were "not the types to represent the company as others have spilled their life's blood for the company." The Rev. Lewis also challenged the 402 shares of stock owned by Mr. Washington. The minister said he owned 15 shares but was not allowed to vote but 11. The chair pointed out that Mr. Washington had paid $20,000 into the company, but was voting only two shares. He owned the 402 of which 400 were in a voting trust. Sought Key Persons The Rev. Lewis refused to vote for Miss Burroughs and cast his ballot in favor of B. V. Lawson, an agent for the company in Washington. Previous to election John W. Dennis, an agent, and Mrs. Ida Burke were nominated. Both declined to serve. Judge Cobb stated that it was the purpose of the committee that presented the slate of directors, to find the "key persons" who would render the greatest amount of service in the effort to rehabilitate the company and the number of shares were not taken in consideration. Rutherford Tributed The Rev. Jernigan paid a glowing tribute to S. W. Rutherford, former secretary-manager and founder of the National Benefit The Rev. Jernigan said wherever he had gone throughout the country people still had confidence in Mr. Rutherford. He said over 80 per cent still believed in the business integrity of Mr. Rutherford although some admitted that an error of judgement might have been made in certain phases of management that brought about the present insolvency. Slate Elected The entire suite presented as directors were elected. The vote was as follows: Cobb, 10,663; Lee, 10,663; Washington, 10,663; Lofton, 10,663; Jernigan, 10,489; Ridley, 10,663; Broxton, 10,663; Hawkins, 10,524; King, 10,658; Ferguson, 10,489; Lawson, 11.

J. Ferguson, former assistant secretary and general supervisor of the company's business at Atlanta, Ga. Miss Patricia Baily was appointed temporary secretary at the meeting. Attorney E. C. Tolman, representing the stockholders was present and acted in an advisory capacity during the entire session. Mrs. L. T. Moore and W. T. Bradshaw were named supervisors of elections.

Pot. 5056 THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, APRIL 1, 1932 CHURCH FINANCES OPENLY DISCUSSED BY D.C. MINISTERS "Negroes Are Overchurched Yet Are Inadequately Churched" An open discussion on the question "Is There a Crisis in Church Finances?" featured the monthly meeting of the Interdenominational Ministers' Alliance at the John Wesley A.M.E. Zion Church, Tuesday. In the first discussion on the subject, Rev. J. S. Carroll declared the church lacks business principles in gathering finance, and a reduced number of churches could take care of the religious work in a more efficient manner and at a lower rate of expense. He further declared that a financial crisis hinders church work and advocated a business plan that would bring about constant revenue in the church. Rev. R. W. Brooks, president of the Alliance, pointed out that the Negroes are over-churched, yet are inadequately churched. He showed that although there are 140 churches in Washington, they have an average seating capacity of only 300 people. At this rate if all the city churches would be filled to capacity only 42,000 people, not 50 per cent of the local population, could attend services. Rev. Brooks deplored the failure of the family head to insert a church item in his budget. As a suggestion to meet this need, Rev. Brooks stated the church should train the members in the responsibility of the institution so they might give as they do to other organizations. Rev. A. F. Elmes declared "swollen budgets have killed religious organizations" and suggested the hiring of competent secretaries and treasurers for church institutions. That the church should educate the better class of people to give was the contention of Rev. R. A. Fairley, secretary of the body. Others participating in the discussion were Rev. G. T. Long and Rev. L. C. Sheafe. The Alliance voted to hold their next meeting on the fourth Tuesday in April at the Y.M.C.A. New Haven, Md. A two-week: revival under the leadership of Rev. J. B. Randolph of Philadelphia, is being held at the Manuel Baptist Church. Rev. Randolph, who is better known as the "Lighthouse" preacher, coducted all three services at the church Sunday.

COLLEGE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY RULES COURT REFUSES TO STOP MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS Justice Luhring Rules Group Holding Meeting Are Within Rights Justice Oscar R. Luhring refused to sign a restraining order Wednesday morning to prevent a meeting of the stockholders of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company which was held Thursday night. The injunction was sought by John T. Risher, president of the company. The call for the meeting was issued by Judge James A. Cobb, Charles B. Lee, Louis Washington, Dr. William G. Lofton and Dr. Le Count Cook. It was later earned that Dr. Cook's name was withdrawn from the call as it was said his name was not authorized. All are stockholders of the company. In refusing to restrain the meeting Justice Luhring said the order sought to have the court to stop an annual meeting of stockholders "which is too big a cherry for me to bite." Call Meeting By-Play "The receiver is the boss and he will pay no attention to it. You want me to do a useless thing by stopping this little by-play." The court further stated that it appeared that the receivers should have been the logical ones to bring the action if the meeting interfered with the work or hampered the receivers in administering the affairs of the company. Attorney George E. C. Hayes representing Risher, pointed out that the "so-called annual meeting of stockholders" would create confusion and any other group would have the right to hold a stockholders' meeting. He said another group of four or five might call an annual meeting next week. 9,000 Shares Stock Attacked Attorney George E. T. Molman, representing the group that are holding the meeting, told the court that many stockholders from various sections of the country are enroute here to attend the meeting which had been provided for according to the code and laws governing the company. The legality of 9,000 shares of stock purported to have been owned by some of the men whose names appeared in the call was attacked on the grounds that the annual meeting should not be held until the authenticity of this stock is determined. It was said by Attorney Perry W. Howard who also represented Risher that this stock would be voted at the meeting. Stockholders Have Rights Attorney Tolman told the court that the questionable stock would not have to be used at the meeting as enough stock was already represented by the stockholders who called the meeting to transact legal business of the company. Mr. Tolman referred to President Risher as a "2-share stockholding president" and said he refused to call the annual meeting when the matter was brought to his attention some time ago. Of the 25,000 shares of stock issued, Mr. Tolman pointed out that less than 40 shares were held by the Risher group. The court stated that by restraining annual meetings a group could perpetuate themselves in office. "These people have some rights," said the court, "and may call a meeting if they want to." Mr. Hayes also told the court that the matter of halting the meeting had been called to the attention of the receivers, but they had paid no attention to the communication. Attorney Daniel T. Wright, representing Louis C. Washington, one of the stockholders issuing the call, told the court that the action should have been aimed at the legality of the 2,900 shares of stock and not the holding of the annual meeting.

INTERVENING SUIT FILED BY POLICY HOLDERS HERE An intervening petition on behalf of the policyholders was filed here Wednesday, by Attorneys Atele Pomrene and Alexander H. Martin, of Cleveland, O., through the local firm of Covington, Burling and Rublele. This petition was filed to ascertain the exact assets of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company wherever they are in relation to the policyholders. The petition also asks that the suit filed last July be incorporated in this petition for the benefit of the policyholders. This suit was filed against the Rutherfords, Mortimer Smith, Dr. Warfield, C. B. Lee, Louis C. Washington et all, to clear up, among other things, the status of the 9,000 shares of stock held by the voting interest of Rutherford, Burling and Smith. NEW BUILDING Continued from page one) school buildings and grounds, the appropriations to be carried in the Budget for 1933 should be provided on the basis of 33.9 per cent for colored schools and 66.1 per cent for white schools. "I immediately after the publication of the budget for 1983, many responsible and representative colored organizations and citizens addressed communications to members of Congress, both the Senate and the House, and to the Chairman of the Sub-Committee on Appropriations of the House of Representatives for the District of Columbia, urging upon them the importance of reinserting in the budget for 1983 certain items that had been eliminated, in order to maintain the long established principle and practice of equal educational opportunity for all children in this city. "The Sub-Committee, presided over by Congressman Clarence Cannon, of Missouri, very graciously permitted a number of the representatives of our local organizations to be heard upon this issue." "The Sub-Committee took the position that under its own rules it could only pass upon items submitted for consideration by the Bureau of the Budget, whereupon the representatives of our local organizations interviewed the Bureau of the Budget. "In consequence, this office submitted to the Board of Education an item for a trade school for boys of Divisions 10-13. This item was forwarded by the Board of Education to the Commissioners; the Commissioners approved and forwarded the item to the Bureau of the Budget; the Bureau of the Budget approved and forwarded the item to the Sub-Committee of the House of Representatives. The Sub-Committee has already had a hearing upon this item, at which hearing testimony was presented by AND THE Press Meeting at the OPERATIVE LEAGUE 1932, 4 to 6 P.M. at the Bison Auditorium Jackson, Ella J.

Chairman, Republican, State Com for the District of Columbia. Secretary of said Committee. Superintendent Ballou and myself. "The item for the trade school involves an appropriation of $315,000. This money is to be transferred from the item originally submitted in the budget for the completion of the Jefferson Junior High School (white) in southwest Washington. "The effect of this transfer of $315,000 from the budget provisions for Divisions 1-9 to Divisions 10-13 is to change the ratio of provisions for school buildings and grounds in the 1933 budget from 80.4 per cent white and 19.6 per cent colored to 66.5 per cent white and 33.5 per cent colored. "The second effect of this provision is to make available for colored schools by September, 1933, an up-to-date and adequate new home for trade instruction for boys in Divisions 10-13. "The third effect of this provision is to make the present Phelps Building available in September, 1883, for relieving congestion in the elementary schools in that neighborhood. In all probability in September, 1883, we shall be required to transfer out of the Business High School on Rhode Island avenue many, if not all, of the elementary school children who will be required to attend that building beginning September, 1882. "Thus, three birds have been killed with one stone. "The colored citizens of the District of Columbia owe a debt of gratitude to their organizations and to the many individuals who were kind enough to cooperate with the school administration in securing favorable action on the part of the Board of Education, the District Commissioners, the Bureau of the Budget, and the Sub-Committee of the House of Representatives in thus balancing the proposed appropriations for school building and grounds in the 1933 budget." MAJ. GLASSFORD MAKES (Continued from page 1) Court No. 1, of the Supreme Court of the District. A crashing victory for the "brave, courageous, efficient 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. Siorica, 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.

Harlem Crowds Into New Wonder Cafe NEW YORK.—(ANP)—The e call it the eighth wonder of the world, this new luncheonette which opened in Harlem two weeks ago, the Sunset Marbrooke, but it remains the show 'ce of the town until something surpasses it. Designed by a white man, the rest of the work on the establishment representing an outlay of $30,000 was done entirely by colored men. Modernistic in design, it surpasses anything in the East as far as beauty and modernistic effects are concerned. Tables with no legs, suspended from the ceiling, have won the complete commendation of Harlem. A kitchen and refrigeration plant in the basement second to none in the city are open to public inspection at all times. Eighteen beautiful efficient waitresses serve the guests during the dav with seven guests at night, excluding the fountain men. In all, the employees number fifty-s seven. The firm of Dumas Bedmond, president; John H. Dudley, vice-president, and Arthur Cresby, secretary-treasurer, three young colored men, own the place. On the first Sunday, the place served 1,200 people, the second Sunday, they served 1,500 with standing room at premium as they waited for seats. Mr. Dudley says that he believes, as long as he serves good food at a low price, he will have crowds attending his institution. Show place as it is, it is a fit setting for the high type of colored people who are patronizing it.

Smith The sermon Easter Sunday morning at Zion Baptist Church by the pastor was indeed well worth hearing. Despite the inclementy of the weather the church was well filled and everyone who attended was well rewarded for his trouble. The pastor's voice, in all its rich and mellow tone, rang out as he eloquently sought to prove that man shall forever live somewhere. Owing to the illness of some of the members of the choir, some of the special music was not rendered. The discussion concerning the state pageant given at the Deanwood School by the teachers, parents and children, seems to have served to soothe the feelings of everyone engaged in it. It appears as if Mr. Sanderson, who is president of the Parent-Teachers Association and who sponsored the affair, did not have rehearsal and did not know in just what manner or exactly what each state was going to present. Near the end, Mrs. Spencer, who had charge of the New York state, presented her offering, which was intended to be an imitation of a New York night club, and, to some of the large attendance it seemed like a big hit. But to the mind of Mrs. Brown, the administrative principal, it had a demoralizing effect upon the juvenile audience and forthwith made it known by her strenuous objections. There was much rejoicing after Mrs. Brown had made her point clear as some parents had begun to think Mrs. Brown had acted too hastily while others believed that they had been given the high hat.

'Numbers' Business Thrives In New York City NEW YORK.—(ANP) —Since the last drive against the numbers in Harlem petered out, little has been written concerning Harlem's biggest industry. However, the business is in a more prosperous condition than at any time since numbers leaped into prominence. Better equipped as far as protection goes, better equipped as far as playing places are concerned, and better equipped financially to handle all plays and hits, numbers are on the road to their former prominence, but as usual, the colored brother has been forced to take a back seat in a game he made famous. This big racket is now controlled by districts in New York with all of Harlen, south of the Harlem River to the Battery, taken care of by one group and the Bronx taken care of by another strong group. Cigar stores arranged as camouflages, and the customers are assured of absolute protection in playing, and better still, from the players' viewpoint, are assured of obtaining their money, if and when hey win. The winning numbers are often from the seven race results played at one of the leading race tracks of the country. SCOTT ANSWERS (Continued from page 1 ) tainey in the "Intelligence" Department which did not finally come his way. "Somehow he does not disturb me. In both of these recent efforts to reflect upon and to discredit me he has shown a most lamentable lack of information, or, rather, a mountainous assortment of misinformation, ex parte in nature, and gathered from some iminal source which undoubtedly enjoys as much as Doctor DuBois does the delights of slander and libel. Doctor DuBois Answered "The Crisis editor is not hard to answer. He states Howard has 'no modern budget system.' My reply is, and there are documentary records to support the statement, that Howard University has had a budget system since 1922. This system has been improved and revised from year to year. It was installed by the Board of Trustees of Howard University, and had their approval from year to year, with recommendations always that we keep in touch with the latest in budgetary science. Even lately, a highly priced firm installed a budget system at Howard University upon request of the trustees of the University, and a Budget Director has administered it. So much then, for Dr. DuBois' first misstatement. "The Crisis editor states, the trustees of Howard University do not know and do not assume to find out just what the income of Howard University is and exactly how it is spent." My answer to this is that every dollar of expenditure at Howard University is approved by the Board of Trustees. These expendi- Still a few more dates open in May tures are supervised and audited not only by the Department of the Interior, but they are also checked by the Comptroller General of the United States. In addition, a recognized firm of auditors, Arthur Young & Company, New York City, audit these accounts annually. The fact that they are auditors for dozens of the most highly representative concerns in America is some recommendation as to their standing and importance in the business world. Further, a report is annually made to the Secretary of the Interior showing just exactly what the income and expenditures of the University are. So much, then, for Statement No. 2. "Millions of dollars of Howard University's funds have been administered by me each year during the nearly thirteen years of my incumbency. I am a bonded executive officer responsible to the Trustees of the University. Who Compose the Real Estate Trust? "It would be easier for me to answer Dr. DuBois' third accusation if he had been as specific in naming those who compose the so-called Washington Real Estate Trust and their colored tools' as he is in referring to the Secretary-Treasurer. This statement seems to refer to the gentlemen who compose the Extension Committee of Howard University, these being Doctor Mordecai W. Johnson, President of Howard University; Mr. V. B. Deyber, Trustee, President of the Second National Bank of the City of Washington, and Secretary of the Clearing House of the District of Columbia; Mr. C. H. Pope, Trustee, Executive Vice President in charge of the Washington Office of the Munsey Trust Company, and President of the Bankers' Association of the District of Columbia; and Dr. John R. Hawkins, Trustee, Financial Secretary of the A. M. E. Church, and President of The Prudential Bank, one of Washington's two colored banking institutions. The character and reputation of these men are of the highest in the highest banking circles. Will the good doctor, then, specifically indicate which of these gentlemen is the one 'whom the highest officials of the District of Columbia know to be untrustworthy and dishonest. "Who are the individuals, let me ask, is Dr. DuBois referring to as seeking 'to buy unauthorized factory sites and apartment houses out of funds appropriated by philanthropic Boards? Let him answer. "These are plain answers I am making, and these are plain questions I am asking. Dr. DuBois should be in position to reply. "It is rather strange that although he has paid me the compliment of addressing two of his editorsials to me in the course of a year, he has not once sought any information from this office as to the truth of falsity of the libels he is attempting to spread. Also, it may be added he has not sought an examination of records which are as public and open to him as they are to any other citizen who would honorably wish to be correctly informed. I think it is now quite well understood that red herrings are sometimes drawn across trails. Why does Dr. DuBois seek to do this thing? COLLEGE WOMEN CONSIDERS THEIR Will Be Called to Account "For months and monks efforts have been made to have me engage in newspaper controversy and attempts made to have me answer some of the many whisperings which have proceeded from some unrevealed source. All of these whisperings have lacked particularity so that they might be met in the open. Thanks to my attitude of silence, attending strictly to University affairs, and refusing to spread the University's business across the pages of newspapers, Dr. Dubois and others like him have become emboldened to the point where they now have begun to issue tissues of falsehoods and misrepresentations for which he and they may be called to account.

(ANP) Under the direction of Dr. William DeKleine, medical director of the American Red Cross, who arrived here early Wednesday morning, strenuous effort is being made to curb the ravages of disease and pestilence that have followed in the wake of the tornado that wrecked entire cities in this State, took a toll of hundreds of lives, made thousands homeless and left in its wake much suffering. To realize the suffering that has been caused by the twisters that struck various sections of this and other Southern States, it is but necessary to visit the tornado-torn sections and view the wreckage on human life and property that resulted therefrom. Entire streets that one time was an example of scenic beauty with beautiful homes are now dump piles. Hundreds of men, women and children were killed and anxious parents and relatives are yet searching the ruins for the loved ones, and at the same time hoping for the best. 107 Negroes are Killed Of the three hundred known dead 107 are Negroes, according to the last check-up. In many cases entire families were wiped out, and in others one or two were miraculously saved while the remainder went to their deaths. Following closely in the wake of the tornado was a cold wave that has added to hardships of those who were rendered homeless by the devastating winds. Disease is rampant and every effort is being made to curtail the ravages of disease that are now so prevalent.

Dig For Worms And Find $2.500 Worth of Jewelry JACKSON, Miss. — (CNS) Jewelry, valued at $2,500 was found by two little colored girls here last week while they were digging for worms. The jewelry had been missing since November 1930. The two children, daughters of Mrs. Emma Turnipseed, had been seeking the worms for a fishing expedition on a vacant lot. Taking their find to their mother, the later disposed of one of the rises, a diamond solitaire worth $700, to a friend of hers for $2,50. The friend sold the ring to a jeweler, who reported the sale to the police. Inquiring by authorities revealed the source of the jewelry and it was recovered. The two children shared, with local police, the reward of $100 which had been offered for the return of the valuables. Negro Communist Gets 2,447 Votes In St. Paul ST.

Williams' section. The Current Literature Club sponsored by Miss I. C. Williams, an English teacher of the Armstrong High School had the honor of presenting Mr. W. H. Mazyck to the faculty and student body at the regular assembly on Wednesday, March 23. Mr. Mazyck, the author of "George Washington and the Negro," was presented by Lieutenant Gilbert Watson, president of the club. At the close of Mr. Mazyck's inspiring address, a copy of his book was presented to the school library by Thomas Medford. The book was graciously accepted by Mr. G. David G. Houston, principal of the school. The Big Sisters Club, composed of Senior girls, sponsored by Mrs. O. W. Spivel, assistant principal, was hostess to over 125 new girls of Armstrong Wednesday afternoon. March 23. The girls were welcomed by Evelyn Greene, president of the club. A short program was presented, in which Rachel Corbin, Adèle Haulin, and Evelyn Scott recited. Frances Coles rendered a solo accompanied by Vivian Watson. The girl participated in games directed by Miss I. M. Hall, after which refreshtments were served. Those assisting were Mrs. M. E. Griffin, Mrs. M. E. F. Whedbee, Miss I. M. Hall, Mrs. K. J.

Mme. Lillian Evanti, famous lyric coloratoura soprano and a graduate of Armstrong, spoke to the student body in a most interesting and charming manner. She gave a synopsis of the opera in which she made her debut and told the students that anything which is worth doing means hard work. In closing, Mme Evanti asked the students not to forget the ideals of old Armstrong and to blend them into the ideals of the new Armstrong. In an interview after the assembly, Mme. Evanti said that the greatest legacy the Negro has is his music which has won him acclaim everywhere. When asked if she thought the present trend of music would change she said that classic music and popular music can be compared to a real painting and an imitation one. There is something about a real painting which holds your attention and lives with you long after the imitation one has been forgotten. So it is with classical music. There is a substance to it that lives on through the ages which popular music does not have, as it is popular just for the moment and soon forgotten. uld not exist A. E. MME. O. S.

(ANP)—Colored firemen on the Louisiana, Mississippi and Vicksburg route divisions of the Illinois Central Railroad in Mississippi are working in fear of their lives. With the slaying of Wilbur Anderson, five Negro firemen have been killed, six have been seriously wounded, and others have been mysteriously beaten. The reign of terror dates from early in January when Frank Kincaid was fatally wounded while seated in a locomotive cab at Canton, an important terminal. The next to the latest victim is Aaron Williams, oldest Negro fireman on the Vicksburg division, who was shot from an automobile running without lights. Williams was reclining in the window of his cab in the Vicksburg yards, and made a perfect target. He was rushed to a hospital bleeding profusely and died. The train on which Anderson was fireman was stopped by a flare Tuesday, a masked man entered the engine cab and shot Anderson dead as he attempted to flee. Most of the shooting has been done with shotguns from dark automobiles, but in a few instances guns have been used as locomotives passed under overhead bridges. The reign of terror is laid to employment of Negro firemen, while white workers go without jobs. During the prosperity era firemen's jobs on the Louisiana division of the Illinois Central were divided 50-50 between Negroes and whites. The white firemen accepted the division because there was plenty of work for both. The depression came and the white firemen asked a five per cent reduction in employment of Negro firemen. This request was granted and today Negro firemen hold 45 per cent of the jobs on the Louisiana division, to 55 per cent for the whites. Jobs became fewer. White firemen demanded that more Negroes be laid off and white men employed. Action on the request was delayed over a long period. Early this year the reign of terror started. It has been gaining momentum ever since. All of the shootings have occurred at Mississippi terminal points, although three divisions of the Illinois Central are involved. A Negro fireman was killed at Water Valley by a shotgun fired from a dark automobile, as he climbed from his cab to close a switch, a few weeks ago. One Negro fireman was killed and another seriously wounded at Durant, on the main line of the I. C. at Canton, Canton, Durant, and Water Valley are on the Mississippi division. Turner Simms ,fireman, was seriously wounded at McComb, Miss., March 11, by a shotgun charge fired from an overhead bridge. He was the third victim at that important Louisiana division terminal. A fourth fireman escaped when a shot went wild. Several weeks before a fireman had been kidnapped and severely flogged. The McComb flogging is the only one officially reported, but officials believe there have been a number of others. There are said to be some seventy-five white firemen without work on the Louisiana division. Unemployment on the Vicksburg and Mississippi divisions swells the total well above the hundred mark. There have been no arrests for the shootings. Colored firemen have announced they are going to keep on working. They say they'd rather "take a chance on being shot than starve to death." Class of '30, Howard Law School Holds Meeting The class of 1930 of the Howard University School of Law was the guest of Attorney Alexander A. Maney, of 1443 T street, northwest, Thursday. Miss Zenobia V. Coleman was the principal speaker of the evening. She gave a very interesting and illuminating talk on Socialism, which she traced from its beginning up to the present. Those present were Attorneys Carl A. Cowan, of the Tennessee Bar; Edward W. Peterson, of the Michigan Bar; Richard R. Atkinson, Brooks T. Sanders, Andrew J. Howard, Malcohm T. Daniels, Alexander A. Maney, and Emerson W. Browne, of the District of Columbia Bar; and Miss Zenobia V. Coleman, instructor at the National Training School for Women and Girls. Two Bandits Hold up Hacker With Ice Pick Two bandits held up Wilbert Dyson, taxicab driver of the 1100 block of Sixth street, northeast, with an ice pick Saturday night and made away with $7. Dyson told police he picked up the fares at New Jersey avenue and M street and drove them to Second and Parker streets, northeast. One of the men drew the ice pick from a coat pocket and threatened to stab him unless he gave up Rival Candidate Questions Sincerity Of Jourdain's Backers EVANSTON, Ill.—(ANP)—Suggesting that the Northwestern University professors and "highbrows" whom he declared were backing Edwin B. Jourdain, jr., in his race for alderman in Evanston, change their object and give the colored youth a place on the university faculty instead, Justice John P. Russ, white, and himself a candidate for the same office, attacked the sincerity of Jourdain's backers in a statement here Monday. "If these professors and students find the man they are supporting so much more intellectual than any other man who is a candidate for the office I say he is wasting his time seeking the office of alderman which only pays $10 for each council meeting. They should exert their influence toward placing him on the university faculty. Then there might be a different story to tell." Alcerman Peter N. Jans who took over Jourdain's post when the latter was unseated some time ago also attacked Jourdain claiming that the latter had brought Clarence Darrow to Evanston to speak in behalf of his candidacy and that Darrow had spoken because he was paid to do so. In the meantime Jourdain's campaign which has won him many prominent white supporters and attracted wide attention rolls merrily on. The election occurs or April 5. Johnson And Wilkinson Guests Of Honor Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, president of Howard University, and Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of public schools of Washington, D.C., Divisions 10-13, were guests of honor at the preview of an exhibition of Seascapes and Water-Fronts in the art gallery of Howard University Wednesday night. The exhibition consists of thirty-three paintings, arranged and circulated by the College Art Association, and sponsored by the art patrons of Washington. The collection includes paintings by American, Spanish, French, and English artists, and is being shown until April 4. According to Prof. James V. Herring, head of the department of art at Howard, this is one of the finest exhibitions which the Howard gallery has yet had an opportunity to show, and is of particular significance as evidencing interest of the art lovers of Washington in the unique service performed by the Howard gallery. Deanwood, D.C. The musical and literary program rendered by the pupils of the Deanwood Evening School on Tuesday at the Randall M. E. Church proved a big success. Mrs. I. P.

OPEN EVENINGS Seeks Government Aid; Claims Incurable Corns NEW ORLEANS, La.—(ANP) —Claiming that he had been an able bodied railway brakeman before he was drafted for service in the United States army in 1918 and that rigorous wartime drilling gave him "incurable corns" on the bottoms of his feet, totally disabled him, Willie Lee Johnson, 1962 Poydras street, in federal court asked full disability payment under provisions of the War Risk Insurance Act. Through his attorney, Robert B. Todd, Johnson sought to prove that while the government had given him vocational training as a cleaner and presser he was unable to do this or any other kind of work. Drs. W. J. Gilbert of New Orleans and Thomas R. Bird, coroner of East Baton Rouge parish, testified that the corns are incarable and would not respond to medical treatment. Dr. Henry E. Menage, witness for the government, said that Johnson was suffering from "athelete's foot," and that in his opinion if the causes of this trouble were removed the corns would disappear. Dr. Bird said that he had been treating Johnson as a charity case since 1919. The government reported For Highest Service And Lowest Price Call JOHN T.

CENSUS FIGURES GIVE INTERESTING FACTS ON ARK (CNS)—A series of statistical data released here last Saturday by the Bureau of Census offers interesting comparisons between the white and Negro residents of the State of Arkansas. The first striking comparison is that of the comparative average sizes of Negro and white families. Census figures show that the average size Negro family in the State is 3.04, while that of the white family is 3.84. There are 123,000 Negro families in the State as compared with a total number of 438,639 families of all races. While most of the Negro population in the State is rural, there were 16,223 Negro families owning or buying non-rural homes as compared with a total number of 81,653 non-rural homeowners. The average value of the non-rural Negro homes was less than $1,000 as compared with a median value for all homes of $2,090. Twenty-four Negro homes were reported to be worth from $10,000 to $14,999; seven were valued at from $15,000 to $19,999; and three were reported to be worth more than $20,000. Negro families in the State, according to the Census report, rented 26,400 non-farm homes, the average monthly rental being less than $10. Two families paid a monthly rental between $150 and $199; and three others paid more than $200 a month rent. The median rental for white families was $13.98. Figures released on home-makers in Arkansas, a homemaker being defined as the woman member of the family being responsible for the care of the home and the family, showed that 903 Negro homemakers were engaged in professional pursuits, 79 were listed as office workers, 854 as industrial workers, and 493 as servants and Money-Saving VALUES 19c Cleans teeth thoroughly and safely.

Colored Architect Seeks Congressional Seat In Pittsburgh PITTSEURGH, Pa.—(CNS)—Louis A. S. Bellinger, prominent Negro architect* of this city, has announced his intention of seeking Republican nomination for Congress from the 32nd Pennsylvanian a District. Mr. Bellinger has been identified with Republican politics here for a number of years. The district is now represented by Edmund F. Erk, white Republican. Heavy Negro Vote Expected In Virginia RICHMOND, Va.—(CNS)—The recent meeting of a State-wide non-partisan political group and subsequent organizations of local units of the group has lent impetus to increase registration among Negro voters in the State. It is estimated that the number of qualified voters, who are Negroes, has increased nearly 100 per cent since 1929. The colored voter can go to the polls throughout the State with more freedom than heretofore, because of the ruling of Judge Lawrence D. Groner of the district court in the James O. West Case. By that ruling the questioning of Negro voters in a manner not employed in questioning whites seeking to register, was declared discriminatory. BOY SCOUT NEWS Through the courtesy of The Fair Department Store, scouts of the Sixth Division, Washington, D. C. Council, will be heard over Station WJSV Saturday morning at 10 o'clock.

On Saturday the 26, Troop 504 Metropolitan Baptist Church, was the guest of the Pastor, Rev. E. C. Smith. THREE CHICAGO MEN RUNNING (Continued from Page One) seat in Congress said, "Tell the world I am going to win. I expect to carry the second by a handy majority and to get 85 per cent of the votes in the first, eleventh and third wards. I have conducted a clean campaign in an effort to impress the voters with my ability to serve them and I think they have heartened to my call. The "big smoke" will be trailing April 12. Congressman De Priest's statement was "short and pithy. He said, "Sure I'll beat Louis Anderson. I'll beat him over three to one. I'll make him sorry he ever entered this race because we are not only going to beat him for the nomination for Congress—we are going to beat him for committeeman, too. Saltpeter couldn't save hi now." That the Negro will play an im- BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL portant part in the election is indicated in the interest which the various candidates, regardless of color, are taking in the Southsiders. Practically every candidate has invaded the district seeking the support or the voters of this section. Omer Custer, who is candidate for governor, on the Republican ticket has addressed lar.e gatherings on the South side as las Oscar Carlstrom, who is seeking the Republican nomination and Michael L. Igoe and Judge Horner, the Derocratic contestants. Judiciary candidates, including Attorneys Albert B. George, former municipal judge; Harold I. Mosley, William H. Haynes and Richard E. Hill, are touring the city setting forth claims as to why they should be elected. Of special interest to the supporters of the four colored candidates was the recent statement of the Chicago Bar Association as to their qualifications. Each one has received the endorsement of the Cook County Bar Association, the colored organization. The Chicago Bar Association declared that Attorney George was well qualified for the bench but was impatient to a point of irritability which marred his usefulness; Hayes was declared well qualified; Mosley fairly well qualified, and Hill qualified, but his reluctance to state definitely whether he would resign as president of the Douglass National bank if he were elected prevented a whole-hearted endorsement. Never before has there been such interest in the election of ward committeemen. In practically every ward there is a hot fight going on. In the second ward Anderson finds himself pitted against William E. King and Jacob R. Tipper, editor of the Chicago World, for the Republican committeeman, and Joseph F. Tittinger, white, is finding the going rather tough in his fight against Al Williams and Henry R. Houle, white, who was at one time the Democratic ward committeeman. In the third ward, according to political wiseacres and observers, Attorney Earl B. Dickerson is slated to defeat Edward M. Sneed, the present Democratic ward committeeman, and, of course, Congressman De Priest, who is the Re- IN THE EVENT OF DEATH Call JOHN T.

Warfield, who is opposed by five white men, in the fifth district with Benjamin Grant and W. A. Wallace seeking the Democratic nominations. The fight is on and all candidates have declared themselves the victors, but the voters will determine that on April 12. A large number of new voters have been added to the registers and every candidate is claiming that this addition is to his advantage. These new voters, too, will have something to say about that on primary day and as usual somebody will be proved in error as to his claims, but just who the erring ones will be can only be determined after the vote is cast and counted. On the Democratic side of the fence is Edgar G. Brown, nationally known tennis player, who openly asserts that he will be the next Congressman for the First Congressional District and that he will present an, anti-knacking bill. Brown is running with the endorsement of the Democratic Party although he is opposed by two white Democrats. EVERYBODY'S GOING!

The diagonal closing in a waistcoat-like blouse is another style note as is the soft crush belt and single pleat in the center front. The final and very striking bit of chie is the "lingerie touch" on blouse and cuffs, which heightens the diagonal theme throughout. This pattern is available is sizes 14, 16, 18, 34, 36, 38, 40 and 42. Size 36 requires 3% yards of 36-inch fabric or 3% yards of 39-inch fabric.

The first will convene next Tuesday at Asbury M.E. Church. It is the annual conference of the great M.E. Church to be presided over by a white bishop. On April 12, the annual conference of the A.M.E. Church will convene here at Metropolitan Church on M street. This conference will be held by a Negro bishop. At the annual conferences the work for the past year is reported upon and new assignments and a new program made for another year. These conferences meeting here are significant, for it is the last for each of these denominations to hold before their general conferences in May, which will be held in Atlantic City and Cleveland, respectively. Delegates for the general conferences are to be elected at each of these conferences here. In addition to the two Methodist branches meeting here we have two more with local churches here which will hold their annual conferences. During these times of depression and hard times the plea for unity of the Methodist churches should have increased impetus. Think of the overlapping in general officers, in the bishops, the presiding elders and local church effort. Why should the Negroes of Washington pay four bishops to preside over them? Four sets of general officers to duplicate their work? Four sets of presiding elders to hear their quarterly reports? Is there that much difference between the four Methodist denominations today for the members of these churches to be over-burdened with surtaxes to pay for all of this duplication? Isn't there more "ism" than real Christianity in these four denominations which holds them apart instead of the spirit of Jesus drawing them together? Does not selfishness, the greatest sin in this old world, dominate the supposed leaders and fan the fires of self aggrandizement which prevents a real union of the Methodists? Last Sunday we celebrated the resurrection of Jesus. What will these four Methodists members be in the resurrection? Will they be M.E.'s, C.M.E.'s, A.M.E.'s and A.M.E.Z.'s? Or will they be Christians saved by grace, blood-bought followers of Christ? Has God a separate section for each Methodist denomination in His Heaven? Or shall we all be one in our praise to the King of Kings? If we are to be one over there, which our Bible tells us we will be, then why let isms keep us apart here and pay the freight to keep us separated? If there was one Methodist denomination, would it not be far more effective in its service to the people? And what on earth is the excuse for the existence of a church if it does not serve the people and through it the people serve God? The A.M.E.'s and A.M.E.Z.'s are to discuss a tentative plan of union at the meeting of their next general conferences. What will the M.E.'s and C.M.E.'s do this year at their general conferences. THREE-CENT POSTAGE AND OTHER TAXES Wages are being reduced, unemployment increasing, poverty, want and disease are on the rampage, and Congress adding and abetting the gloom by voting a three-cent postage and other taxes to add to the already overburdened poor people in these United States do not tend to better conditions. The House of Representatives threw Wall Street into a fit last week when a few liberty-loving cool-headed men in the House revolted against the un-American principle involved in the proposed sales tax. Stocks tumbled and the report has it that about $2,000,000,000 was lopped off of stock on the exchange boards. A fear of placing the deficit if this millionaires' government, upon the folks with incomes who can afford to pay it seems to be over-evident. Question—just what should be done? The burden of the deficit to balance the budget should be placed on income tax instead of a sales tax. We remember the "war taxes" on big incomes. Why not place this need of the government on those who get the most from the government? The poor devil in this country receives precious little from his government. All the concessions, all of the privileges, all of the favors, and all of the benefits of this government go to the rich, the big income people. Then let them bear the burden of the inefficiency of their flunkeys in the official capacities conducting their government for them. It is rather strange that during all of the debate in the House on the sales tax that no one thought of Canada's experience and related it. The Hearst papers have advocated a sales tax. Sure they would. William Randolph Hearst and Arthur Brisbane are rich men and it is to be expected of them to hang with the rich and exploit the poor through a sales tax instead of taking it upon themselves and advocate an income tax. However, the situation in Canada where there is a sales tax in force is not so rosy. Thomas Moore, president of the Canadian Trades and Labor Congress, gave out an interview recently which says in substance: "The sales tax has added much to the cost of living of the lowest paid worker and his family. "It is confusing and costly in administration. "The accumulation of profits charged on the sales tax is many times the amount of the tax before the articles actually reach the hands of the consumer. "The tax restricts purchasing power and thereby helps to continue the depression." Why doesn't Hearst discuss these facts in advocating the sales tax? Every important action of the Hoover administration has been to benefit the already over rich and nothing for the already too poor people.

First discuss these facts in advocating action of the Hoover administration already over rich and nothing for the hew Bullock, only Negro member of the Committee in Massachusetts, stated "learn politics too fast." There is no DIGESTING THE NEWS DIGESTING THE NEWS By CLIFFORD C. MITCHELL NEGRO WRITERS The editor of one of our largest (white) fiction magazines recently wrote me and included these remarks: "I've often wondered why more of your people are not taking advantage of writing fiction for the white publications, when the field is so fertile, for those possessing talent? I will admit that we have no demand for strictly racial themes but otherwise we place no restrictions on our writers." With the above statement ringing in my ears the thought came to me that probably the sentiment was not generally known to our budding writers and, therefore, this particular digest is for the benefit of those who are seeking an outlet and a commercial market for their particular writing ability. In short, if you have ability to write fiction, and the inclination, and desire to dispose of it on its own literary merits and not because of some racial appeal, the field for creative writing for the white publications is unexplored. On the other hand if you have written, or contemplate writing, the great American novel in which the hero or heroine is black, do not waste your time in sending it to any but a Negro publisher, unless you anticipate paying the publishing costs in advance. This situation should not be hard to analyze. There are two ways of looking at it. One, a matter of intention to take Mr. Bullock? He praised colored women for stressed the need of unity in saying that the tendency of women strain under the leash of their soon that they had reached this is much wisdom in Mr. Bullock. voter has learned the political. But it is doubtful if she has, as the game too fast. The presence of the Negro given the male-voter many and had otherwise. The rough she Negro politicians by white women.

In this day of political so-called leaders, there can be dren or anybody else "learning only hope of a politically ens future increased activity of the country. And there is no enlightened Negro woman she snail's pace of her male fellow that she has taken up the falli the mire of political defeat. WHAT OTHER PAPER intention to take Mr. Bullock's statement out of its context. He praised colored women for their political activity. He stressed the need of unity in politics. But he concluded by saying that the tendency of women in politics had been to strain under the leash of their men leaders and to feel all too soon that they had reached their political majority. There is much wisdom in Mr. Bullock's remark. Indeed, the woman voter has learned the political game with amazing swiftness. But it is doubtful if she has, as Mr. Bullock lamented, learned the game too fast. The presence of the Negro woman voter in politics has given the male voter many advantages he would not have had otherwise. The rough shod methods employed against Negro politicians by white leaders cannot be used against women. Then, too, the woman voter has proved herself ready to undertake the routine work of politics, the registration campaigns, the house-to-house canvassing. Working in the last two presidential campaigns, she has lost some of the illusion about the game. She has seen it as a fight for better civic conditions in State and nation. It is only natural that the "do-nothing" policy of many of her male leaders should have led her to revolt, should have caused her to assume leadership where she found none. On the whole the woman voter has thought less of her own political neck and more of political neck of the Negro voters who trust her. She has seen a job to be done and set about to do it. The generalization of the last paragraph will be bolstered up in a few specific facts to be stated in this. In Mississippi Mrs. Mary E. Booze, taking leadership in a worthy cause, has challenged the United States Senate to nominate a man, who dared insult Negro womanhood. In Georgia, Mrs. Williams, another colored woman, is fighting the regular Republican organization in its attempt to make the party lily-white. In many States colored women have secured representation to State and national conventions. Not long ago Negro women led the way to polling places in Florida at the risk of their lives. In this day of political surrender on the part of many so-called leaders, there can be no such thing as women, children or anybody else "learning politics too fast." Indeed, the only hope of a politically enslaved race seems to lie in the future increased activity of Negro womanhood throughout the country. And there is no reason why the courageous and enlightened Negro woman should shorten her stride to the snail's pace of her male fellow worker. It is to her credit that she has taken up the falling standard and held it out of the mire of political defeat. WHAT OTHER PAPERS SAY ABOUT EASTER SO! IT IS EASTER After forty days of self-denial and the observance of Good Friday, Easter enters and abolishes the gloom which had pervaded for these days. After a long period of suffering there emerges peace. Gone is the disquietude and suffering. Now will the Christian celebrate a rebirth, and the church be firmly established on a sure foundation. Easter and Spring—a rebirth of the Church, a rebirth of the earth. A shaking off of the gloom of the passion and of winter.—Boston Chronicle. THE SIGNIFICANCE OF EASTER By Kev, J. Acton Hill Our modern celebration of Easter is ter is not without its dangers. There are evidences that it is developing into a 'Feast Day' such as we are told one may witness in Italy or Spain. Crowds attend the Easter services, especially if ample advertising notices of a unique or unusual form of ceremony have been made. It is a day for new hats and gowns, for fashion parades down the avenues, in short a religious holiday Campaigns for new members end with Easter and right boastfully we chronicle the large additions to the membership of our churches. Display, fashion, music, rhetoric crowds, religious festival, national holiday thus characterize the day of Christ's resurrection. Of course no one would wish such an all-important day to pass without proper attention, but one sentiment, and the other, a matter of business. From a sentimental standpoint you can hardly expect the white publishers to exalt and glorify Negro characters any more than you would expect Negro publishers to exalt and glorify the white characters, although there are exceptions to both. And from a business standpoint you could hardly expect any publisher, white or black, to stock their shelves with unsalable material. Even the white publishers who do publish books by or about Negroes find their greatest sale, not among the Negroes, but among their white upchasers, and it is reasonable to expect that in selecting their Negro characters they accept those that will the most satisfy their readers. Forgetting, however, the racial issue, color would not seem to bar any talented writer from finding a market for his wares. If the manuscript has merit, no personal contact is needed or required. In no other field is there such an opportunity for real merit and ability. For years I have followed, and recorded, the output of every colored writer in America.

One is led to wonder how "The Gentleman from Galilee" would view it all today. Would he recognize His beautiful and simple religion in the elaborate formalities of the modern Easter? Easter holds one tremendous value—it is resurrection day. He misses or dodges that fact destroys its worth. Easter lifts us from the dull earth and sings the glory of immortality. Easter speaks, but in no uncertain terms about the persistence of personality: "Because I live ye shall live also." There are many lovely things that may be said about Easter, but this is the heart of the whole celebration. We believe that since He has triumphed over death, we shall do the same thing. Our faith is that when our friends and relatives are laid in the grave, their spiritual selves go marching on into eternity and after death we shall know them and live with them. This is a grand conviction; it takes the sting out of death; it makes it possible for us to smile thru our tears; it comforts our sad hearts in the hour of bereavement; it gives dignity to life. "In this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable." "But now is Christ risen from the dead and become the first fruits of them that slept."—Louisville Leader. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY, APRIL 1, 1952 OTHER PAPERS SAY TO INVESTIGATE HOWARD U. (From St. Louis Argus) Viewing the situation from a distance, we are constrained to believe that there is "much ado" over a little on the part of certain persons to discredit the administration of Dr. Mordecai Johnson. As we see it, it appears that it is the same old story, which seems to be characteristic of our people, the allowing of personal ambition, petty jealousy, and suspicion to overcome sound, logical and righteous thinking. The mere fact that there is a deal of complaint against Dr. Johnson's administration does not, in itself, argue that he is incompetent. Neither is it any evidence that the same sort of criticism would not be hurled at any other president holding this position (provided he was a colored man). Somehow, we can't but have a suspicion that, if the facts are known, it will be found that all of this criticism and belittling of Dr. Johnson comes from within, born in the spirit of ambition of one who wants to be the president of Howard University so badly until he can almost "taste it." This sort of condition in an institution like 'oward University is most unfortunate because it is this sort of ambition that has ruined individuals and caused kingdoms to crumble. It looks like, in this case, it is an obsession which causes its possessor to forget the welfare of the cause and to pursue the course of rule or ruin. This, we say, is most unfortunate. We would suggest that the committee appointed by the trustees to investigate Howard university turn its attention, first of all, to those who are loudest in their complaint against Dr. Johnson's administration. The committee should seek diligently to find out "what it's all about," and who is behind all of this propaganda, "walking on the snow without leaving a track." Remember, that it is easy to criticize; that it is easy to misconstrue every act of a public official; and that it is easy for designing hands to magnify the evil and minimize the good in any person. And while this comment is not intended for a defense of Dr. Johnson's administration at Howard university; yet it is intended to call the public's attention to certain existing conditions which are brought about by malcontents who would destroy race leadership in the hope of furthering their own selfish ambitions. "You're Another" By William Pickens (For the Associated Negro Press) Southerners often point with glee to the way Negroes are treated north of the Mason and Dixon Line, in defense of the way Negroes are treated in the South. If there be one lynching in a northern state and ten in the south, we southerners say: "You also lynch them." It is one of the oldest and most persistent bits of human illogicalness to defend oneself against the charge of a fault by simply showing that some one else has the same fault. Misery loves company but crime seeks to justify itself by company. If I steal, am I less of a thief because Joh also steals? At least I will talk that way, especially if John calls me a thief! "You're another!" Lynching and Jim-Crowism are especially characteristic of the southern states. The mobbing and segregating of colored people, which has taken place in the rest of the country, can fairly be said to show the bad effect which the south has had on the rest of the nation. An infected tooth may put an ankle out of commission. But the point is: a mere comparison of evils does not remove either evil, or any evil. Merely finding fault with each other does not help half s. much as finding fault with ourselves would help. We have an advantage in correcting our own faults, but little power to correct the other fellow's. But how eloquent we can grow about the other person's faults! Long long ago, in 1850 to be exact, the Senators from the north, led by those of Massachusetts, were debating the desirability of abolishing the slave trade in Washington, D. C., when one eloquent southern Senator answered them thus: "Sir, these men (northerners) repudiate the discrimination here when it suits their purposes to assail the south, but they preserve it at home and there degrade the very persons whom they elevate by their voices. The black man is put in a much higher scale by their rhetoric than he is by their practice. "On a former occasion I said that a free black cannot go to Illinois, and they have been prohibited from going to Ohio. In Connecticut they are not allowed to vote, nor are they, I believe, in New York; and I am informed by a colleague as a result of his own observation, that in Massachusetts such is the aversion of the white to the black man, that the rotters actually drive them from the polls on election day, and scorn and split upon them. It is only in the Sem- Thoughtful Lines By Al Pinckney Some of us often wonder, savagely, cynically or quizzically, why life has handed us only a lemon grove whose fruit never ripens, while our neighbor, not half so capable a fellow, fell into a field of honeydew melons just ready for market? — Yes, we wonder! * * * * From the start we have approached this Wet and Dry problem from a wrong premise. It is not a religious or a political question but solely a moral and economic one. However, it apparently is so deeply injected into politics now that we'll never get it out. Society may be dissolved, not merely by the excitation of unlawful passion, but by the removal of moral restraint. Every one must see that, if moral distinctions were abolished, society could not exist for a moment. * * * * The religion of Christ has always exerted its greatest power when, entirely unsupported, it has been left to exert its own peculiar effect upon the consciences of men. * * * * Character is the present intellectual, social, and moral condition of an individual. It comprehends man's actual acquisition, his capacities, his habits, his moral feelings, and everything which enters into a man's state for the present, or his powers for attaining to a better state in the future. Let every young man, especially every young woman, beware of listening for a moment to any conversation, of which the object is, to show that the restraints of virtue are unnecessary, or to diminish, in aught, the reverence and obedience, which are due from the creature to the law of the Creator. ***** When we are possessed of a knowledge of certain facts in a man's history, which, if known to a third person, would protect him from important injury, it may frequently be our duty to put that person on his guard! WEEK-END MOSAICS By Algernon B. Jackson, M.D. (For The Associated Negro Press) A GRAND OLD MAN My good friend the Deacon has been ill for several months, I am so happy to report that he is now much better and will be out again soon. During the many years I have practiced medicine I have attended all sorts of people suffering with all kinds of illness. But I do not recall any one quite so grateful, appreciative and cooperative as the Deacon has been. He has really suffered and at times I felt pretty blue about his condition, but frankly, I do not believe there was ever a moment when he lost his cheer or his faith in God His fine philosophy has been on top even during his most distressing moments. In the face of suffering he has never flinched. In the very presence of possible death his smile has always shone like the sun. Through long days of confinement his patience has never wavered. When to me the hour seemed darkest, he kept the flame of good cheer burning brightest. I have seen his eyes grow dim, but never his faith in the Master of Men. Some day the Deacon like all the rest of us must die. I may be with him when he passes into the great beyond. On the other hand he may be near me when I go. Somehow or other I cannot help but feel that the touch of his hand in mine would lead me happily across the brink into everlasting peace. The possibilities are that I shall outlive him, but should the events be reversed I want him by my side talking, singing and smiling me-into that eternal sleep. One day while discussing the present day idea and practice of religion, he drew his hand across his fevered, furrowed brow and exclaimed: "Yes, these are different times with different ways but religion ain't failing. We may not have so much of it as we once had, but what little we do have is of a better grade, and that is what counts with both God and man." Surely he is a Grand Old Man! ate Chamber when it suits ...e purposes of the gentlemen, that we hear so much rhetoric on this subject. It is rhetoric without a heart, sir, the heart is not the source from which it flows." There was, and is, some truth in this; but the speaker failed to see the relation and responsibility of the south for much of what he charged against weak minds and hypocrites in the south.

BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL KELLY MILLER SAYS: WOMEN BUILDERS The Associated Publishers have recently issued a volume bearing the above title, of which Miss Sadie Iola Daniels, Professor in the Washington Teachers' College is the author. Lucy Laney, founder and Principal of Haines Institute, Augusta, Georgia; Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, president and promoter of the Order of Saint Luke; Janie P. Barrett, well known welfare worker of Virginia; Mary Bethune, founder and presiding genius of the Cookman-Bethune Institute of Daytona, Florida; Nannie H. Burroughs, founder and principal of the National Training School for Women and Girls, D. C.; Mrs. Charlotte Hawkins Brown, founder and principal of Palmer Memorial Institute near Greensboro, N. C.; and Jane Charlotte Hunter, promoter and builder of Y.W.C. A. work in Cleveland, Ohio, constitute Miss Daniel's seven Women Builders. Miss Daniels justifies this limited list by a word of caution: "Of thousands we cannot write the full story. We shall note here only a few towering personages." "This volume will restrict itself to Negro women who are pioneers—those who are builders of educational, financial and social institutions." I do not think that even the women themselves will find occasion to quarrel with the author by reason of the limited list, which, with two unaccountable exceptions, is complete within its category. One cannot possibly account for the omission of Madame Walker and Mrs. Malone, of Poro fame, from the list of Women Builders. All of, these with the possible exception of Maggie Walker operated largely on financial contributions gathered outside the race on a philanthropical basis. This fact need not detract in the least from their due need of praise as race builders, nor from their initiative daring and enterprise. Booker T. Washington, the master race builder of all time, operated wholly on philanthropic monies. It is, however, no less meritorious to beg four million dollars for philanthropic purposes than it is to earn a like sum by one's own endeavor. Mrs. Maggie Walker, alone of the list, operated on resources wholly inside of the race. On the other hand Madame Walker and Mrs. Malone built up great business enterprises as individual ventures wholly upon the bases of racial demands and support. When a second edition of the book is called for I trust that the author will complete the list by including these two women whose omission leaves the reader much at a loss. Religious zeal and missionary impulse actuated the seven mentioned race builders. They built on a foundation of faith, hope and OUR MAIL OUR MAIL MONROE TROTTER The Editor: Kindly allow me space in your columns to pay a word of tribute to the splendid work done by Editor William Monroe Trotter, in his thirty years service to his race. As he is completing sixty years of life on April 7, may I ask your readers to give him a sixtieth birthday testimonial. He has waged each year of the thirty a decisive and unswerving fight for rights. This will give his race all over the country a chance to show their appreciation for his untiring zeal and to start his seventh decade with an impetus of spirit unexpected by those who appreciate the great fight he has made. We should show that we stand by our living heroes as well as our dead ones, and as Crispus Attucks sacrificed his life-blood to lay the foundation for American Independence in 1770, so we see that today William Monroe Trotter is still sacrificing himself to lay a foundation for his race, which American prejudice and its bigotry can never undermine.

SAD BUT TRUE There are many incidents in this life of ours, that really hurt, not necessarily rily because they affect us directly but because they strike a blow at the sensitive principles by which we live as humans; both as Negroes and as God's children. My present reference is to the incident that our local weeklies carried as a headline last week, the segregation of a member of our group in one of the prominent churches of the Capital City. How sad, but true. When the officials of the church were questioned as to the policy of the said institution, they answered that it was the same as had been exercised, and what's more that it would be kept in force as far as the general running of the church was concerned. As an Ethiopian, my feelings are more hurt by such action, but after analyzing the situation carefully and assuming a philosophical attitude I find it to be no more than a lesson to us, of the darker races. charity. They were motivated by the love of God and the love of man. They caught a full measure of the missionary spirit which constituted the chief social dynamic a generation ago. But, alas, the race now deeply deplores the dynamic of that day. It will be noted that these women, with a single exception, were not college-bred or wore no academic degrees. They began at the bottom of the social scale and gained strength and incentive for climbing by lifting as they rose. I am not attempting to suggest any invidious comparison, but merely to call attention to obvious fact. College-bred women are not without their need of praise. The author as if to apologize for the paucity of college women in her list, recites: "Should a list be made of foremost women of to-day one would find them represented in the fields of music, art, literature, education, business and social service. Under this category a goodly number of college women are listed. These fields call for education, culture, refinement and technique, rather than the resourcefulness, energy and enterprise of the pioneer and the race builders. Our colleges and universities are now turning out annually hundreds of women with such learned degrees as Bachelor and Master of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy. School teaching and social service, under established auspices constitute their chief field of operation. Some few dare launch out upon the learned professions or seek careers in music, literature and the arts. More power and prestige to them. The pioneer work of the race builders by way of the type of institutions to which our heroes devoted their energies, is practically complete. No longer can the missionary with a philanthropic enterprise hope to appeal to Northern philanthropists for support. Madames Walker and Malone have blazed a new path. The women, as well as the men, of the race must build up enterprises dependent upon racial needs and necessities. The highest talent of the college bred man and woman will be requisitioned for the new line of enterprise. Much of the regrettable failure of many of our business and financial undertakings is due to the lack of trained business knowledge and judgment. If the collegian has any superiority here is the place to show it. We are thankful to Miss Daniels for giving us this plain, simple, readable volume and for justly extolling these seven Race Builders whose work attests their worth. But we cannot confine our thought to the excellent portrayals herein presented. We lay down the volume more deeply impressed by what we read between the lines. BOOK REVIEWS BOOK REVIEWS "ONE WAY TO HEAVEN" By Countee Cullen (Harper and Brothers—New York) Sam Lucas, although a trickster, was responsible for many souls reaching Heaven even though he was less concerned in that fact than in the discovery of an "easy living" by fooling the good church people. It was his custom to attend revivals and at the crucial moment become converted, at the same time throwing an old deck of cards and a razor at the foot of the altar, thereby making a very sensational scene that usually result ed in open arms being extended to him by the church members. Having but one arm his situation seemed all the more pitiful and a goodly sized collection usually followed and on such funds Sam would live until he struck the next town and the next revival. Sam's bizarre methods caused other sinners to forsake their ways and give an excuse for the title of the novel. On one such an occasion, in Harlem, Mattie Johnson not only became converted but she fell in love with the unconscious cause of her conversion—Sam Lucas. The author, in weaving the story of the love, courtship, marriage and subsequent domestic difficulties of Sam and Mattie, introduces much of the life of Harlem's colored citizens, picturing scenes and incidents that to one, knowing their Harlem, would have no difficulty in supplying actual names, places and events for practically all of his Harlem descriptions. Even as death hovers over Sam Lucas, through trickery, he makes Mattie happy, for she believes his soul has found "One Way To Heaven." —Clifford C. Mitchell Now, don't misunderstand; I'm not making apologies for the officials of the church, for such procedure in the stance of God's chamber at that precious moment when we are having a rendezvous with Our Redeemer would be provoking even to the most unconcerned spectator, much more to the offended; just merely repeating what I've said before that as long as a Negro isn't able to build and conduct his own churches as a whole as it is done in many instances at the present, he will have to submit to the will of the other race. After all we don't own them, and as for being the boss in the other man's home it is entirely out of the question. We have our own, so let's stick to it and make the best of it. HENRY S. GRILLO.

According to the testimony of Lillian Clayton, 339 D street, southwest, the men accosted her and her uncle, Monroe Mason, while the two were walking home. Miss Clayton said the men drove her uncle away at the point of a pistol, forced her into an automobile, and robbed her of $3. She said the men stated they were officers and drove to a patrol box where one unlocked the box and is alleged to have called a precinct. She said the men tore her clothes from her and took the money from a sweater pocket. Both men were held under bond of $1,500. They were represented by Attorney John Wilson, while Assistant District Attorney Paul Keough represented the Government.

MASONIC TEMPLE SCENE OF SUPER- ATTRACTION Alexandria Association of Over 1000 Members to Entertain Public The Negro-Progressive League of Virginia, an organization formed for the purpose of Negro uplift, will stage an elaborate reception at the Masonic auditorium on Tuesday, April 5. The sponsors of this affair have made every effort to insure the entertainment of its many patrons, some of whom shall journey from as far as Richmond to be present at this occasion. In addition to Elmer Calloway's Club Prudhom Band, this organization will present a juvenile acrobatic team of professional caliber, and numerous other acts of good vaudeville. Cigarette girls, uniformed waiters and comfortable box seat reservations will add greatly to the comfort and convenience of its patrons. This affair was originally scheduled to be held in Alexandria, but due to subsequent difficulties in reference to securing a suitable place, the reception has been transferred to this city. Free bus service to and from the auditerium has been arranged for the Alexandria patrons. Tickets can be secured at the Washington Tribune office from C. Leslie Frazier. The Negro Progressive League has been organized less than ten months and has a bonifide membership of over 1,000 men and women members, the majority of whom are the mass that constitute the citizenry of the city. Among a few of the accomplishments of the N.P.L. are the placement of men and women in employment; the promise of an industrial plant to employ Negroes; the awakening of race pride; the solidarity of the greater portion of the local political factions.

Mr. Caldwell has taken but ten days sick leave since he has been in the service and has never been reported for tardiness or any other infraction of discipline. Mr. Caldwell will spend most of his time on his truck farm at 2750 Bruce place, southeast, Garfield, D.C. He will also visit his children, Thornwell Caldwell, an attorney of Warren, O., a World DRIVE PLANS FOR TRAINING SC The Citizens' Committee that is handling the National Training School drive is sending out literature, coupon and receipt books. The plan is to get all information into the hands of the friends of the institution, and instead of having many meetings and prolonging the drive, to begin intensive work the second week in April and push the campaign through the first Sunday in May. A big mass meeting will be held at the Metropolitan A. M. E. church, at which time both white and colored speakers will plead the cause of an institution that is doing a fine piece of work for Negro girls. A number of captains are busy. The women under the direction of Mrs. W. T. Ezell at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing are doing their best to reach their quota. At least twenty ministers have expressed their willingness to cooperate heartily in the drive and to line up their churches and get good contributions from them. Each pastor is asked to push the campaign in his own church. Congressman Oscar DePriest will be the guest speaker at the Ministers Conference before the close of the drive. Rev. E. C. Smith is working hard to line up all of the churches. He is urging the church people to stand solidly behind the institution because it represents the ideals for which the churches should stand. C. Tiffany Toliver, J. A. G. Luvalle, Dr. Kelly Miller, Col. West Hamilton and Mrs. Blanche Beatty Washington are members of the publicity committee. Some of the captains of teams are: Mrs. Emma Cabaniss and the District Training School Board who have organized a team; Mrs. Julia West Hamilton and the city Federation are in the drive; Rev. George Parker is directing the campaign at 19th St. Baptist Church; Mrs. Etta Versa Frye has a team composed of graduates and former students of the institution; Mrs. John E.

The youth was arrested Monday on complaint of John S. Blick, president of the Terminal Coal and Ice Company. Blick told police Bannister ordered coal at his office and gave a $16 check in payment, receiving his change. The address the coal was to be taken was found to be false and the check later proved worthless. Four other similar cases were charged against the youth. Housebreaker Given 360 Days In Jail Convicted on a charge of carrying a concealed weapon, James Lucas, 19, "the man without an address," was sentenced to serve 360 days in jail by Judge Isaac Hitt in Police Court Tuesday. Lucas, who told police he didn't have an address, was apprehended in a building at 512 Thirteenth Street, northwest, Monday night. He was charged with housebreaking and remanded for the Grand Jury on that charge War vetern; and graduate of Howard University; and Miss Eve and Lester Caldwell, of New York. A speech of farewell and appreciation was made by Earl Taggart, chief of personnel of the General Accounting Office. A huge bouquet of flowers, together with gold were presented the retiring messenger. There was h rdly a dry eye present when Mr. Caldwell bade his fellow workers goodbye in a speech full of emotion. Mr. Caldwell was delivering milk to several of the desks in the department when the program was ready to start. NATIONAL HOOL UNDER WAY deavor organizations; Mrs. Georgia Henry heads the team of special gifts; Miss C. J. Woolfolk, Baptist Young People's Unions of the District; William Harris fraternal organizations; Mr. Benjamin F. Arrington, Dr. Carter G. Woodson, Rev. W. H. Jernagin, Dr. E. T. Mewrite. Any number of men and women are very active on the teams. Among them are Miss Elizabeth Cole, Herbert Jones, Mrs. Katie Thompson, Smith Wormley, Garnett C. Wilkinson, William I. Blake, Mrs. C. Marshall Webb, Rev C. T. Murray, Mrs. Rebecca Ramos, Mrs. A. S. Pinkett, Mrs. Bertha King, Mrs. Charify Smothers, Mrs. Alma J. Scott, Mrs. Lena Hart. The students of the Training School have organized their team and the teachers are working hard to raise more money than they raised last year. The Fair Department Store is making April 30 National Training School Day. Everybody is asked to spend at least one dollar in the store on that day. If this is done, the institution will receive a handsome check. Congressman DePriest's committee has certainly hit upon a helpful idea for collecting small gifts. They have issued coupon books. Each book contains $30.00 in dimes, quarters and half dollars. Those who give a dime, quarter of half dollar are handed coupons showing the amount. The workers do not have to write a line. They simply detach the coupon and hand it to the contributor. When all of the coupons have been taken the workers turns in thirty dollars. It is the easiest, quickest most satisfactory plan we have seen for collecting small gifts. Furthermore, it fits well into the scheme of things during this period of depression. There are very few people who cannot give something. The coupon plan removes practically every excuse. Those who can give dollars should not hide behind dimes, and those who cannot give dollars know that their dimes will be appreciated.

Judge Frees Wife Who Ripped Husband's Clothes A wife has a right to destroy her husband's clothes—that is if the wife paid for the clothes. So ruled Judge Isaac R. Hitt is Police Court last week when Mrs. Madie Peturs, 240 Ninth street, southwest, was brought in court charged by her husband with destroying private property. Husband Peters came home one night to find his entire wardrobe in shreds and Friend Wife told him he could scram. The court ruled that since Mrs. Peters had paid for most of the wardrobe with her money she was not destroying her husband's property. The case was dismissed. Attorney Thomas Beckett represented the wife. OUR READERS ARE ASKEL O PATRONIZE THE ADVERTISERS IN YOUR PAPER THE PASTOR THE REV. ROBERT M. WILLIAMS. Rev. Williams is the Yebury M.E.

This effort has the unanimous endorsement of the ministers of this city. In an interview with Mrs. Daisy E. Lampkin of Pittsburgh, Regional Field Secretary, who is in the city conducting the campaign, she said I "am very gratified with the progress of the campaign to date. We are nearly half-way of our goal. Enthusiasm is high among the workers. At a meeting of the captains, on Monday, each expressed the determination to reach the team goal of $200. I feel certain that the citizens of Washington will not let this campaign fail, as they realize that it is a joint membreship and contribution effort, rude necessary by the coming of the conference here during May." More than $2000 has been reported by the workers in the campaign. The local branch is requesting every interested person who believes in the program of the N. A. A. C. P., and who desires to support the effort to secure the complete emancipation of the American Negro to give their membership during this campaign. If a worker fails to solicit it, the committee earnestly requests that the membership be brought or sent to the office of the local branch, 1913 9th street, northwest. The public is invited to the meeting on April 4th at Y. M. C. A.

Herbert Moon Acquitted; Jury Frees Him of Charge Of Assault On White Man Herbert L. Moon, brother of Ellis T. Moon, the undertaker was acquitted by a jury in the Police Court of the District of Columbia, Judge McMahon presiding. He was charged with having assaulted Charles Gammon, white man, with an automobile crank. The testimony was conflicting. Gannon charging that Moon and another man had run him off the road at Twenty-third Street and Pennsylvania Avenue and assaulted him during a resulting argument.

SECOND SECTION 8 WHITE MEN TO ONE COLORED AT SALVATION ARMY 8 WHITE MEN TO ONE COLORED AT SALVATION ARMY Eight Times as Many Whites Eat 16 Times as Many Meals Only 872 colored men slept and ate 2,921 meals at the Salvation Army stations here in January and February as compared with 6,878 white men who were served 35.244 meals in the two-month period. Continued increases in the number of homeless, transient men applying for aid feature the report to the Community Chest of the Homeless Men's Department of the Salvation Army for February. The distressing feature of the report, according to Salvation Army officials, is that there has been no decrease in February, a month in which a normal decrease has been usually experienced. More than 100 per cent increase in the number of meals served during the first two months of 1932 as compared with the first two months of 1931 is shown in the report, the Army serving 36,244 meals this year as compared with 16,304 meals in January and February of 1931. E' ign Decker again calls attention to the fact that the amount of food is still greater than indicated, in that a number of the meals served in the two months of 1931 were what is known as "emergency" meals, whereas the meals served this year are all fully adequate meals, this being found necessary in order to build up men who had become run down on emergency rations to a point where they could not be expected to look for work or work if they found a job. A new departure was inaugurated in February when medical inspection for all men applying to the Army was installed. Compatent physicians examined 1,963 men, finding that 655 suffered from bronchitis or bad colds and 38 were transferred to hospitals for treatment. The Army took care of 6,878 men during February of whom 2,224 were "new" cases, never having been known to the Salvation before. There were 236 old or known cases and 4,418 continued cases, men who stayed two days or more. Of these men, 456 were und 21 years of age and 893 more under 31 years. Employment was the problem in 2,207 of the cases examined. In addition to these figures, which are for white men only, the Army also cared for 872 colored men, giving them beds and 2,921 meals. HUNDREDS BRAVE RAIN TO ATTEND EASTER SERVICES Inclement Weather Halts Annual Display Of Styles And Fashions Despite the depressing atmosphere which caused the abandonment of the annual display of spring finery and Easter fashions, the churches of Washington were well attended, Sunday morning. The attendance at the religious institutions, however, made it apparent that many had stayed at home listening to inspiring radio sermons. Most churches were colorfully decorated while the victory of Christ through Hi. Resurrection furnished the theme of sermons and exercises for the pastors. Special Easter music was furnished by the church choirs. The rain-soaked grounds caused by the inte,mittant showers spoiled the annual U street parade of Easter styles and fashions, the egg rolling and many other outdoor activities scheduled for the Easter celebration. Many visitors were in town to attend the special Easter services by the Knights Templars. Impressive Easter services were held by the grand and subordinate commanderies, Knights Templars, arranged by Simon Commandery, No. I, at the Masonic Temple, at 3 p.m. The Rev. G. E. Stewart, pastor of Trinity A.M.E. Church, Baltimore, delivered the sermon. A dramatice address was given by Jeremiah Scott, grand prelate, assisted by Clarence A. Nixon, Elwood G. Hubert, Joseph B. Jackson, and (Continued on page 11)
