MITS SUICIDE
Leaves Communication Asking Daughter To Forgive Her For Act
Despondent because of unemployment and financial worries, Flora Broadus, 63 years old, took the easiest way out by committing suicide at her late residence, 401 T street, northwest, Saturday. Leaving a note stating that she couldn't stand it any longer and asking forgiveness for her act, the woman drank a glass of creolin poison. The note was addressed to her daughter, Mrs. Essie Weaver, of the same address. The body of the woman was found in the basement of the house by James R. Weaver, her son-in-law, upon his return from work about 4 o'clock. Authorities were summoned and the woman pronounced dead by Emergency Hospital physicians upon arrival of the ambulance. Coroner Joseph R. Rogers issued a certificate of suicide.
The woman is said to have come to Washington about a month ago from Seattle, Washington, seeking employment. Since that time her funds had given out and she had been unable to secure work. Funeral services were held Monday from the J. Jenifer Undertaking Establishment with Rev. A. E. Newman conducting. Interment was at Lincoln Cemetery.

John C. Wright, father of the three-cent car fare for school children and for thirty-five years a teacher in the high schools of the District, of 514 T street, northwest, is the author of letters to the Federation of Civic Associations, the Interdenominational Ministers' Alliance, and the Baptist Ministers' Conference of Washington and Vicinity, requesting that these organizations investigate the poor condition of Woodlawn Cemetery. In his communications Mr. Wright charges that Woodlawn Cemetery is "keenly humilating and altogether a very sad reflection." The cemetery is located on Benning road. The body of his communications is as follows:
"Unkempt approaches and miserable roadways; crude and inconvenient aisles to family lots and private graves; primitive vault facilities; unsystematic and incomplete records; unreliable management and inefficient supervision; and unsatisfactory conditions in general now obtaining—all merge in making Woodlawn Cemetery keenly humiliating and altogether a very sad reflection.

$10,000 Diamond Necklace
Of Mrs. Catherine
Washington S
After having accused two employees, man and wife, and the husband sentenced to four years in Lorton Penitentiary for the theft of jewelry, Mrs. Catherine Regan, rich white society woman and mother of Mrs. Mary R. Elkins, wife of former United States Senate: Davis Elkins, of West Va., has found her $10,000 diamond necklace in the basement of her Cathedral avenue residence. Nathan Graves and his wife, S. Pora, former employees of Mrs. Regan, were accused of the theft of the jewelry several months ago. Mrs. Graves was indicted, but was acquitted when Justice Proctor ordered the jurors to return a not guilty verdict as to her. Her husband was found guilty and sentenced to five years. The sentence was later reduced to four years.
Graves and his wife were arrested after the $3,500 diamond bracelet was found in a Southwest pawnshop and traced to the pair. Graves contended that he found the bracelet in an old tomato can while cleaning the cellar at the

he did not realize its value and after
having it around the house for
some time he gave it to his wife.
When pressed for money he pawned it for $5. He stoutly, denied knowing anything about the ring which was reported missing at the same time.
The ring was given to Mrs. Elkins by the former Czar of Russia and contained a 10-karet stone. Along with the ring and bracelet several other small pieces of jewelry were reported stolen.
After Graves was sentenced Mrs. Regan collected $5,000 from an insurance policy which she had on the jewels. After he began serving his sentence Graves withdrew an appeal.
During the trial Graves and his wife were represented by Attorney Nathan A. Dobbins. Since the jewelry has been found Attorney Dobbins announced this week that he will seek to have Graves pardoned and institute a $10,000 damage suit against Mrs. Regan.

RISHER REMOVED AS RECEIVER OF WHITELAW HOTEL
Augustus W. Gray & Chas. Cuney Are Appointed By Court
An aftermath of the indictment of John A. Risher, former president of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, took place in motions division of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, Monday and Tuesday of this week, when Justice Jesse C. Adkins decided to remove Mr. Risher as receiver of the Whitelaw Hotel properties at Thirteenth and T streets, northwest.
As reported exclusively in the Tribune last week, Judge Adkins heard arguments on the motion to remove Risher, Monday, June 20. At that time the attorneys for Robert W. Robinson urged Risher's removal on the grounds that an indictment had been returned against him.
After taking the case under advisement, Justice Adkins stated on Monday that he would remove Risher and called upon counsel for suggestions as to his successor.
Counsel asked for a day to consider and on Tuesday when court convened Mr. Risher was represented by Attorney Levi David, who made an impassioned appeal for Risher's retention.
Nothing to Fear
"This man," he said, "stands high in the estimation of both white and colored citizens of the District and never has his integrity been questioned until the return of this indictment." He said that while counsel for Mr. Risher was confident that the indictment would be quashed because it did not set forth a criminal charge, yet Mr.
WORKERS SUFFER FROM ENFORCED FURLOUGH PLAN
WORKERS SUFFER FROM ENFORCED FURLOUGH PLAN
Freedmen's Hospital Employees Forced To Pay $30 Month For Board-Lodging According to reliable information it has been pointed out that since the United States Senate has passed the enforced furlough bill, custodian employees at Freedmen's Hospital will be the poorest paid regular Government employees anywhere in the United States, as far as actual cash is concerned.
It is alleged that male custodians at Freedmen's Hospital are compelled by the Government to pay $30 each month for room and board at the hospital, and all female employees must pay $20 for board only. It is pointed out that there are no facilities at the hospital for housing women employees. In addition to this the sum of $3.15 is taken by the Government from regular salaries for a retirement fund. When these employees take the 30 days furlough without pay some will be practically destitute and without means to support their families. A reporter attempted to interview several of the employees, but most of them were reluctant to talk because of fear of losing their jobs.
Less than one-half of the employees are taking advantage of the sleeping quarters as space allotted will accommodate about 50 per cent of the workers at the hospital. There are about 63 custodial employees at the hospital. Most employees prefer to sleep and board with their families. Outside agencies are seeking to have money paid for board and lodging at the hospital returned to employees who live at home. It has been pointed out that white employees have the option of receiving cash in lieu of board and lodging.

BAPTIST PASTORS COME TO BLOWS AT STORMY SESSION
Conference Will Attend Storer College Meet Despite Controversy
Verbal strife over the all important question, "Whether the Baptist Ministers' Conference of Washington and Vicinity should attend the Christian Institute to be held at Storer College, Harpers Ferry, W.Va., late in July as previously planned," reached such bitter proportions as to cause two of the leading Baptist ministers of the city to engage in a fast fight during the conference meeting at the Florida Avenue Baptist Church on Monday afternoon.
The ministers involved were Rev. J. P. Nichols and Rev. J. L. S. Hollomon, pastor of the Second Baptist Church, and president of the Baptist Seminary of this city. Several weeks ago a special committee headed by Rev. William H. Jernagin, pastor of the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, met at the said church and offered a resolution recommending that the conference go forward with plans to hold their institute at Storer College despite the controversy between the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the president and trustees of Storer College. The controversy grew out of the refusal of the college trustees to permit the N.A.A.C.P. to place a tablet on John Brown's Fort because of the wording of the inscription. This incident took place on May 21.
Committee Report
Following the offering of this resolution several of the ministers publicly expressed themselves as being opposed to convening at Storer College in July. Their suggestions brought about an investigation into the matter by this special committee which made its report at Monday's session.
Immediately following the reading of the report by Rev. Nichols, secretary of the special committee, a heated verbal clash between

COMPANIONATE MARRIAGE SCORED BY CHURCHMEN
National Sunday School,
B.Y.P.U. Congress
Holds Session
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — The
National Negro Sunday School and
B.Y.P.U. Congress which concluded
its twenty-seventh session here
last week went on record as opposing companionate marriage; the congress also adopted a five-year program
The Sunday School and B.Y.P.U. Congress discussed the all-absorbing topic of "Companionate Marriage" at Thursdays session. Forum votes were approximately 250 against, and 2 for companionate marriage. The findings committee, consisting of four men and one woman, the chairman being Dr. R. M. Gilbert, of Indiana, Mr. McDowell of Chicago, said, "I am for companionate marriage because I don't believe a man can have faith in anything he has not contacted." The speaker continued, "I don't believe the conditions that governed our parents would fit now."
The common law marriage was distinguished from companionate marriage, as a man and woman continuing to live together by agreement because of material property, and having children, whereas companionate marriage excludes children.
Five-Year Plan
The five-year program emphasizes the study of five major subjects, as follows: The Christian Home, 1933; The Teaching Church, 1934; The Christian Community, 1938; The Christian World, 1936; Leadership for the Church, 1937.
This study course consists of both Sunday School and B.Y.P.U. work. These subjects will be discussed from year to year in the departmental meetings.
Dr. Jernagin Re-elected
"Let's open the eyes of the blind worldly people so that they may see the beauty of God," declared Dr. W. H. Jernagin, of Washington, D.C., president of the Negro National Sunday School and B.Y. P.U. Congress, who succeeds himself as did other officials of the 1931-32 Congress roster, in his annual message. Dr. Jernagin admonished the young people to pray for those who doubt God and religion and insisted that today is the day to do something and asked that each one should inspire another for good. Finally the speaker called for consecrated service so that sinners will turn from the idol gods of their fathers.
The keynote address was delivered by Dr. A. M. Townsend on the opening day of the convention after Major E. D. Bass welcomed the congress.

Declaring that "there is no substitute for the word of God," the Rev. Walter H. Brooks, pastor of the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church and dean of local ministers, addressed the Interdenominational Ministers Alliance on the subject, "Conditions of a Successful Ministry," Tuesday at the Y.M.C.A. Continuing, Rev.

After hearing the report of the civic committee from the secretary, Rev. R. A. Fairley, the Alliance adopted a resolution that the committee send letters to all theatre managers requesting them to discontinue the sale of tickets to school children until after school hours. This action was taken after it was reported at the last meeting of the alliance that school children were playing truant to attend the theatre shows.

Miss Florence Jackson
Wins $150 Scholarship
A prize essay scholarship of 8150 offered at Howard University by the Religious Society of Friends to freshmen, sophomores, and juniors, was won by Miss Florence E. Jackson, one of twenty contestants, an evening student who is clerk in the office of the secretary-treasurer. Miss Jackson, a native of Philadelphia, is a graduate of Dunbar High School in the class of 1925, and of Miner Normal School in the class of 1927. At the present time she is a junior at Howard. The essay has very tactfully characterized her experience as a product of the Friends philanthropic efforts in Philadelphia and eastern Pennsylvania in writing on the subject, "When I was a Stranger."
Miss Jackson presented her own experience as a refutation to the fallacy that charitable institutions send the products of their efforts out into the world as institutionalized, socially maladjusted individuals.
Her reminiscences of the healthy environment, cultural contacts, and the thorough basic preparation which she received under the instruction of the Friends are most convincing. Her style, according to Prof. Charles E. Burch, head of the department of English at Howard, and chairman of the committee, is well done.
The essay is illustrated with pictures of the various institutions with which she has been connected as a student and a ward.
Miss Jackson is without parents and makes her home in Washington with her sister, Miss Grace Jackson, clerk at Freedmen's Hospital.

Ye Does Not Need To Worry About Shelter For His
Family, While The Renter Is Not So Fortunate
By William A, Radford
In ee days of economic stress when the heads. of many
families are more than worried, the man who was wise
enougk to invest his surplus‘ earnings in home is particularly
fortunate. He does not have to worry about shelter for his
family and, if the need becomes great, has an asset on which
he can realize. ‘
These times have, proven again
the value of being a home owner.
While the “crickets” of the human
family were “singing the summer
away,” the ants were busy working
and saving, and investing the sav-
ing in a home, Now they are reap-
ing their reward, in the security
that comes of having the home,
even though their incomes have
been cut down, or ‘have diminished
to the vanishing point,
Owning a home requires courage,
thrift and a desire to be among the
stable citizens of the community in
Which one lives. “For the home
owner is reckoned among his neigh
bors as a substantial person, and
his family has social advantages
that are not often riven to those
who are not so nrovident,

t6 build now,
Selection of.a design of the home
that is to be built depends on the
size of the family, and its needs;
also the. amount of money that is
available for the construction of
the home. Small ‘families, of
course, require only a small house,
the'site needed to ‘give’ the mem-
bers a comfortable place in which
to eat, sleep and have their social
life. 2
Shown’ in the illustration is a
good type home for the average
family. It contains living and din-
ing rooms, kitehen, three bedrooms
and bath. It is a good looking
home, being on the Colonial type,
but differing in interior, arrange:
ment from the true Colonial, which
is an evenly balanced house, both
in exterior appearance and the di-
vision of the rooms: inside.
‘This home building design-is suit-
able for. the moderate size lot, as
it isvonly 26 fee wide by 24 feet
deeps It is of frame construction
and is set on a concrete foundation,
with a basement of the same dimen-
sions as the house itself. The brok-
en roof lines, the gabled dormer at
the front, and the sun parlor at
one gnd, all add to the attractive-
ness and tomfortableness of the
house.
At this season of the year the
yard and plantings about the home
come in for a great deal of consid.
eration. For it is the exterior ap-
pearance that first catches the eyes
of passerby, and of visitors to the
home.
The type or style of the house
built will influence the design and
planting of its surrounding areas.
In most sections there are three
reoceurnig typer or styles. They
are the Colonial, the adapted
French and the English style. Each
type or style demands a landscape
treatment of its own and in keep-
ing with its individuality.
‘The Colonial house, being an
American style handed down by our
forefathers, has very definite re-
quirements in design and in the
type of plant materials used, Plant~
ings for this style of house should
be restricted and only characteris-
tie types of materials used. Elm
trees, apple trees, grapevines and
‘old-fashioned flowerine plants are
happy and at bome when surround
‘ing a Colonial house.
| ‘The adapted French style house
comes to us from the French pro-
vincial districts whose people are
farmers, or better still horticultur-
iis, and the plant materials used
there were forms that could easily
be managed with shears and care-
ful training. The treatment this
style of house demands resolyes it-
self into formal treatment of plants
placed in such a way that stiffness
and monotony ate avoided. The
Freneh- ust fruit trees for land-
scape effects. Oaks, lindens, pop-
lars, maples and many fruiting
vines are used. Hedges and bar-
revs are always necessary. Inci-
denta) planting was in most cases
clipped.
The English type house traces its
source from several forms in Eng-
land, the cottage and manor house
having contributed. many ideas.
This style seems very appropriate
for our modern needs because we
can have informality without sacri.
ficing comfort. This type demands

Remember chat planning” the
landscape development is as impor.
tant as having a plan for your

only in this way can one hope to

How many persons understand

landscape planning? It is much to

1v "FLASH" ROBESON
The Hillsdales kept pace with the leaders by taking both ends of their twin bill with the Rajahs, 6 to 0 and 15 to 7, Sunday. The first game was the first shut-out the Rajahs have suffered this season.
The gilt-edge twirling of Jakie Levi, who allowed the heavy-hitting northeast' lads only five hits, was the feature of the opener.
Robert Green, O. Butler, and Toots Brown led the 'Dales with the stick, while the brilliant fielding of Enrest Johnson and Hugh Butler stood out. Cash and G. Jenifer were the fielding stars for the Rajahs, while G. Johnson led them with the willow. Wade Savoy played a remarkable game on first base for the losers.
Rajabs Hit Hard
The Rajahs greeted the offerings of "Smoke" Levi roughly in the night cap. The first four men hit safe, and the ace of the "Dales knew it wasn't his day and the game became another story after Marberry Frazier took up the toiling. The lads from northeast were completely at the mercy of Frazier, who coasted along easily. Dick Temple, Speed Johnson and Reds Wooden led the "Dales at the stick, while the playing of Johnson at third was the fielding features. The only bright spot in the work of the losers in the nightcap was the stick work of G. Johnson.
Fast Double Play
The 'Dales made one of the fastest double plays seen this season; Temple to R. Green to H. Butler, in the first game, to save Jakie Levi from being scored on. On the fourth of July the 'Dales will journey to Sandy Springs, Md. to cross bats with the Stars of that township.
Giants Beaten Twice
Huntsville defeated the Washington Giants twice by the scores of 6 to 4 and 12 to 11. The Giants in the opener wasted several hits tallying only four times on twelve hits. The pitching of "Twinkle" Kemper and the stellar playing of Whitlock on first base were the features of the Giants' playing in the opener, while the stick work of A. Hamilton and the twirling of Robinson were the bright spots in Maryland's playing.
Lose in Tenth
The belated rally of the Giants came to naught after trailing by the score of 10 to 2, the lads from southwest came to life in the seventh and eight innings, scoring four runs in each inning to tie the score, and after scoring one run each in the ninth inning lost out in the tenth.
Briscoe pitched a brilliant game after relieving shorts in the fourth inning, yielding only three runs. The remarkable catch of a hard line drive by A. Smart, the youthful center fielder of the lads from Maryland, coupled with the batting of D. Hamilton and Crump were the features of the Marylanders' work in the nightcap. Brown and Briscoe led the Giants with the stick, each getting three hits out of six times at bat.
Mohawks Forfeit
Umpire Detoe awarded the White Sox a forfeit because of the late arrival of the Mohawks in the first game, and the Sox defeated the Hawks, 19 to 9, in the nightcap. The game was devoid of features.
DePriests Slaunted
The LeDroits slaughtered the DePriest A.C., in the first game, winning by the score of 20 to 2. The only bright spot in this massacre was the heavy hitting of the entire LeDroit team, led by "Yellow" Payne. Ray Powell, the newest addition to the Tigers' pitching staff, coasted to victory in his first appearance. The second game was very interesting. The bright spots in the DePriests' work were the pitching of Banks and the fielding and batting of Wheeler. Jodie Wheeler, for the Tigers, chalked up another victory.
Sonny Hawkins played his first game in a Tiger uniform in the first game and played a good game on first base.

5 POET PLAYERS ON ALL-HIGH NINE
Clyde Williams Shades Hank For Pitcher's Berth On Honor Team
First Team
Jackson (D), first base
Garrison (A), second base

Dunbar High School contributed five players to the District of Columbia All-High baseball team this season. Here is the way the first team lines up:
Jackson—A new comer, sure fielder, dangerous at bat and worries basemen when he is on the bags.
Garrison—Very reliable in field, and is exceptional in pivoting for double plays. Good inside player, and while not so dangerous, is a good man at bat in pinches.
Walker—Did not hit in series, but is a very safe fielder and offers a steadying influence in the inner works. Is given the call over Henderson because of the latter's "in and out attitude." At times Henderson was way out in front, other times he was worse than "just another ball player."
Henry—Far above average high school player. Is smart, thinks quickly in pressing situations and is dependable at bat. Goodloe—Fast, graceful, can throw and while not a heavy hitter, he gets his share at the right time. Irving—Has ability in both offense and defense. Has crossed up many pitchers who attempted to pitch to his so-called "weakness." Cole—One of the few high school outfielders who could place himself at the right spot for opposing batters; can travel in any direction for fly balls, and more than compensates in the field for what his team loses from his batting prowess. Payne—With the absence of an outstanding eligible catcher in either high school, Payne transferred from the infield to the backstop post, gets the call. Incidentally he showed rare ability and should be encouraged in this capacity.
C. Williams-Judging their performances in the city series, Clyde and Hank Williams pressed each other throughout, but on the basis of earned runs and solid hits allowed, the little Clyde shaded the elongated Hank. The second team has six Armstrong men and a series between the first and second team would be a battle worth while seeing.
TIGERS TO CLASH WITH B.E.F. TEAM

"Prides of Point" Will Play Camden Bonus Team In Benefit Game
The Oriental Tigers, one of Washington's strongest nines, will encounter the Camden (N.J.) Bonus Expeditionary Force baseball nine, Sunday, at 2 o'clock, on the South Capital street diamond.
A real battle is expected as the Bonus outfit has a capable number of veteran players in their line-up, including former major and minor league players. Listed among the B. E. F. players are J. H. Brooks, former hurler for Marshall All-Stars of Detroit; E. L. Hunter, former all-round player of the Hill-dales of Lancaster, a.; I. Grant, pitcher, from Detroit; Cleveland Wright, former member of Rube Foster's American Giants; A. H. Johnson, second baseman of the Norfolk Red Sox; and A. Dums, catcher, of Montreal Grays.
The Tigers widely known as the "Prides of the Point" have on their roster some of the most outstanding players in the city. Manager Mack Adams will probably start "Buster" Holmes, youthful hurler ace of the Tigers.
Proceeds from the game will be used for the benefit of the veterans.

THE SPIKED SHOE
BY THE OBSERVER
Levey, a flashy infielder of the St. Louis Browns, has come forward with a rush this year. He received his early training in the Marine Corp. Other ball players who received their early playing under Uncle Sam are such players as "Buller" Rogan, Oscar Charleston, "Heavy" Johnson, Lem Hawkins, Hen Jordan, and Rube Currie.
By far the greatest infielder we have produced since John Henry Lloyd, Monroe, DeMoss and Spencer Clarke flashed their wares before fanland, one Dobie Moore, erstwhile short fielder of the Kansas City Monarchs, was one of the greatest. His career was cut short by a stray bullet.
John Henry Lloyd, whose playing was likened to that of Hans Wagner, the great Dutchman, chose Moore as short fielder on his mythical all-time All-American team.
The Lincoln Giants once had the largest catching staff in baseball in avoidupois. Lewis Santop and "Doc" Wiley's combined weight amounted to nearly a quarter ton.
Leroy Taylor and Judy Johnson are two of the best dressed men in baseball.
George Shivley, lead-off man for the A.B.C.'s in the team's pennant contending days, was a superstitious ball player who did not allow his team mates to use his bat for fear they would hold it the wrong way and spring it.
Laymon Yokeley, one time right hander, has been suffering with a sore arm for the past two years.
Judy Gans, umpire in the East West League, is now calling them for the Hildale team at Darby, Pa. The Baltimore Black Sox pitching staff is decidedly portside. Five left-hand pitchers are on the staff. They are Flournoy, Holmes Jones, Allen, and one other whose name I fail to remember.
Homestead Grays Beat Craws To Even Series
PITTSBURGH, a.—In a game featured by hard hitting, the Home-stead Grays took over the Pittsburgh Crawfords by a 11-9 score, Saturday. Radliffe started for the Crawfords and was pounded for four runs in the first two in the second and one in the third. Sam Streeter rescued his teammate in the fourth and was niced for four runs.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY. JULY 1. 1932
as MACKEY sees it BY GARLAND MACKEY
ALL'S NOT WELL ON BASEBALL FRONT
All is not well on the East-West League baseball front, according to rumors reaching me this week. Owners are to meet within the next few days to make plans for the second half schedule if there is to be one. From all appearance there will not be a schedule.
Teams are now playing a catch as catch can schedule with few catcicking anything worthwhile in the form of shekels. The Pilots are feeling the depression, oppression and what have you along with other clubs in the loop. Local owners not only stand to lose a considerable sum from poor attendance, but the initial sum put up at the opening of the league.
A few of the other clubs have cashed in on previous seasons and can toddle along a while longer. Not so with the Pilots, who are facing their first season in organized baseball.
PILOTS DIVIDE CLUB INTO TWO TEAMS
In order to cope with the situation Manager Warfield and the Pilot owners have hit on the plan to divide the team and play a series of games in other sections of the country. Team A will be playing, say in Philadelphia, while Team B will be in Camden, N.J., on the same day. In that way Dykes hopes to at least break even.
For some reason the local fans have been failing to take to the Pilots in any numbers. Some games hardly pay expenses. In Baltimore, Sunday night, less than a corporal's guard turned out at Bugle Field. Less than car fare was realized from the game. The Crawfords in Pittsburgh and the Black Yankees in New York seem to be the only clubs making expenses. Even Cum Posey and his Homestead Grays, who in past years were considered the best club financially in the country, are up against it. It is rumored that several of his players have left and some eight or ten players on different teams are jumping from pillar to post in an effort to keep the wolf away from their respective doors.
LOCAL OWNERS STILL BY THEIR GUNS
Already some players have worn at least the uniforms of three clubs since the season started. The Pilot owners are still sticking by their guns and are determined to give Washington a ball club. Despite setbacks the local club has a fine bunch of ball players and deserve better patronage. From the brand of baseball played within the past week it is well worth while to spend an afternoon out at Griffith Stadium when the Pilots play.
Washington can support a team, and the type of ball players Dykes and the Pilot owners are bringing here, lovers of the sport owe it to the team to attend and pull for the home lads.
METCALF IS MESSENGER TO GOVERNOR
I see by the papers that Governor Phillip F. LaFollette, of Wisconsin, will have a swift messenger service this summer. Ralph Metcalf, brilliant spinner from Marquette University, who has broken world records in the dashes and is regarded as an outstanding American candidate to win in the Olympics, took a temporary job to replace Sam Pierce, 72-year-old messenger to the governor. Metcalf will earn $115 monthly, and will use it to help finance his trip to the Olympics and California.
The governor certainly will get speed when he wants messages carried around Madison, Wis.

Speaking of the Olympics, the team from the Republic of Haiti that will compete in the games at Los Angeles, arrived in New York on the Dutch Line Steamship Stuyvesant. The team consists of Sylvio P. Cato, who won second place in the broad jump in the Olympics at Amsterdam in 1928 with a leap of 24 feet 11 inches, and broke the world's record in Paris a month later with a jump 26 feet 1 inch. According to information, Cato is a natural athlete of great power and unusual speed, who developed himself in his native country and made his spectacular record almost entirely without the benefit of scientific training. In 40 meetings in which he participated in Europe from 1924 to 1928, he won the broad jump in 37 of them.
He takes an active part in political life in Haiti, and an intimate friend of high officials and is co-director of the Haitian Tourist Bureau.

In Order To Beat Old Man Depression, Manager Warfield Divides Team In Two Parts While On Western Journey
By BENNIE CALDWELL
Manager Francisco Warfield has started on what is believed to be the longest road trip which the Pilots will be called upon to make this season. Tuesday, June 28, he will divide his team into two parts and play two games in Philadelphia, team A being led by "Mauling Mule" Suttles, team B headed by Warfield. The Pilots play another game in Philadelphia Wednesday, and Thursday, en route to Pittsburgh they play one game in Carlisle, Pa.
Friday, July 1, at Greenlee Park the Pilots enter into a hard three-game series with Oscar Charleson's Pittsburgh Crawfords.
Considerable interest is manifested in this series in Washington sporting circles. Many fans from Seventh and T streets and Eleventh and U streets, northwest are planning to make the trip to the Smoky City to root for the Pilots.
Betting odds are 6 to 5 that Page loses his game against McDonald; 6 to 5 that Brewer defeats Radcliffe; even money that Tom Richardson defeats Strong.
The winners of each club have put up $500 side bet on the series George "Mauling Mule" Suttles and "Big" Bert Johnson, Manager Warfield's twin Behemoths of swat have purchased one-half dozen bats
Webster "Bluebird" McDonald will open the series against the Crawfords and will be opposed by Satchel Page, the play boy pitcher of the league. "Cannon Ball" Chet Brewer will oppose "Ted" Radcliffe, Saturday, July 2. Sunday, July 3, Long Tom Richardson will oppose Tarlton Strong.
The July 4 bill: Long "Polly" Trent and Dave Matlock will toe the slab for the Pilots.
"SWIM" DRIVE TO START MONDAY
A city-wide "Learn-to-Swim" campaign will be conducted in all of the pools of Washington from July 11 to July 16, according to an announcement by Ralph W. Foster, chairman of the committee in charge of the drive. The campaign was endorsed by Col. U. S. Grant, 3d, who has accepted the honorary chairmanship of the committee. It is planned to print coupons in newspapers, and every applicant for instruction must bring one of these in order to obtain cards entitling him to lessons, Mr. Foster said. Swimming heads from the various pools met at he Y.M.C.A. last week and mapped out plant for the campaign.

Pilots Favored To Win From Crawfords Friday
PITTSBURGH. — When Frank Warfield's Washington Pilots face the Crawfords on July 1, they should be favored to win. For exactly one month ago (June 1) they took over Charleston's outfit to a 5-3 score. They chased Streeter to the showers and manhandled Kincannon. Even Gibson's homer in the upper tiers of the bleachers failed to daunt the Pilots. Nip Winters held the Pittsburghers scoreless until the sixth, and was relieved in the seventh by Hayes. And Hayes won his ball game by tripling in the eighth with two on. The teams play at Greenlee Field on July 1.

McDonald Hands Baltimore Team Shutout Defeat In Opening Contest
BALTIMORE, Md.-Webster McDonald, Washington Pilot hurler, won a shut-out victory over the Baltimore Black Sox here, Sunday, in a brilliant pitching duel by a score of 1-0, in the first game of a doubleheader.
In the second contest of six innings Tom Richardson, Pilot flinger, held the Sox to four scattered hits to win a 10-1 decision in the nightcap. McDonald bested Holmes in a near mound battle in the opener. The Sox were helpless before his twisters, but Suttles nicked Holmes for a double in the seventh and then was sent across the plate for the lone tally of the contest.
The Washington team had a merry time with the offerings of Allen and Flournoy in the second tilt and hammered out 14 safeties to manufacture 10 runs in the fourth and fifth frames. Richardson hit a four-base clout in the second game.
Carrying the fight on into the nigh the Pilots again defeated the Sox in a night game at Bugle Field by a 18-8 score.

sturdy Dick Whittington. Effortless returns by Lewis of Whittington's terrific cannon ball serves did much to break the spirit of the Baltimore ace. Lewis' all around play was commendable. Terrell's victory over Carroll was decisive. Neat placements kept the loser on the run throughout.
Ike Kendrick started off as to take Moore's measure, but fell before the steady pace of the Baltimore manager. Perkins played "Babe" Jones to a standstill and succumbed only after a great struggle. "Perk" is looking forward to July 9th for the return match. Webb was a victim of the Baltimore Junior Champion, Weaver, and could not fathom the youngster's tantalizing chop. Miss Johnson of the local team held up the feminine prestige by an impressive victory, while Miss Abram's match was stopped by darkness at 10 all. Webb and Kendrick captured the only Washington doubles victory in straight sets. Lewis and Terrell, after dropping a set to Whittington and Weaver, staged a rally and were stopped by darkness with the count 7-7 in the second set.
The absence of such stars as Johnnie Wilkinson, Tally Holmes, "Micky" Syphax, Clyde Freeman, Oscar Murray, and Sterling Brown was in evidence Saturday. The tennis and horseshoe team of the two branches will meet in Washington July 9.

Englewood Tennis Play Gets Under Way Friday
ENGLEWOOD, N.J.—The first tournament of the season for the fans of the metropolitan district will start on Friday, July 1, on the courts of the Englewood Tennis Club, on Dean street. This play is the eleventh yearly Class "B" tournament of the New Jersey Tennis Association. The play will continue each day from Friday at 1 o'clock, until Monday, July 4, on which date the final matches are scheduled to be played.
After a lapse of nine years, the tournament, which has been played in Asbury Park, returns to North Arseney, and also marks the first tournament held in Englewood for many years. This club has several excellent courts, and there should be good play each day from the list of entrants thus far received. Dr. N. P. Bowman, of Camden, appears to be the leading candidate for the men's singles honors, although the club has several players to be reckoned with, as has the newly formed Union Tennis Club of Orange.
On Saturday evening, the host club will entertain the players and their friends after the monthly meeting of the N. J. T. A. with a public reception at the Memorial House, Englewood avenue and Armory street. This reception is open to the public.
George Godfrey Wins, But It's on A Bad Check Charge
CLEVELAND—George Godfrey, heavyweight boxer, was hailed into court here last week on a bad check charge.
According to the complaint, Godfrey, during a visit to Cleveland several years ago, had taken part in a crap game, and having lost all his available cash, had borrowed $700 on a bogus check. He continued in the game and lost the money back.
However, when the man who had taken the check sought to cash in on it, he discovered that it was no good. He therefore sought to make Godfrey pay through the court.
It was held, however, that the court could not be made an agency for the collection of a gambling debt.
Baseball Teams To Play For Benefit Of Mothers
PITTSBURGH, Pa.—One of the most deserving causes of the State will be aided by the three-club feature on July 3, at Greenlee Field, Nashville, the most flashy entry of the Southern League, will lock horns with the Crawfords.

The games will be for the benefit of the Rosalia Maternity Home.
Fantroy, Baseball Player, Suffers Injury In Game
Fantroy, outfielder of the Le-Droit Tigers, fell and wrenched his ankle in a game last Sunday and will be out of the game for several weeks.
The Tigers will play at Colesville, Md. Saturday for a game with the Colesville Giants and on July 4 the Tigers will meet a team at Warrenton, Va. during the Elks Field Day.

After the car was overtaken police found 15 half-tallons of alleged liquor in the machine. Richardson was charged with transportation and illegal possession of liquor and speeding.
ATHLETES MEET TO FORM CLUB
The Twelfth Street Y. M. C. A. Leaders' Club was host to a group of local athletes from various colleges this week. The meeting was an open forum. Interesting talks were made by former coaches and the athletes. The athletes included Percy White, Wilberforce University; Carter Lacy Jackson, L. S. Johnson, Virginia Seminary; Joseph Sewell, Howard University; Paul Robinson, "Oney" Corbin, Ralston Matthews, Johnson C. Smith College; and Wilber C. Wallace, Iowa University.
The former coaches present were Frank Perkins, Edgar Westmoreland, John Burr, Cato Adams, Raymond Contee, Benj. Washington, Major Campbell C. Johnson, Arthur A. Greene, and L. "Pewee" Covington.
Members of the Hi-Y club attended in group and were inspired with the talks of the returning athletes and coaches. As a result of the Confab, a club was organized to function as a beacon for the wearers of the A. D. and C. The club is to be known as the A.D.C. Club and will strive each year to give a scholarship to one of its members. This organization is open to high school students who have won their letter in either Armstrong, Dunbar and Cardozo. All persons present at the meeting pledged full support to the movement.
Gus Moore Is Star At Manhattan Field Meet
NEW YORK.—Gus Moore, former interscholastic cross-country champion and more recently national junior 10-mile titleholder, and other athletes from the Salem Crescent Club provided the high spots of the Manhattan Athletic League's track and field meet at McComb's Dam Park, Sunday.

Moore is now a member of Salem Crescent. Leslie Lockhart, Vincent Briscoe, M. Johnson, Edgar Solomon and Kirmit King were among the Salem Crescent Club winners. Eugene Brown, G. Bynum and Clarence Weeks, of the Mercury A. C., were also among the winners.

BUY TIRES BEFORE PRICES GO HIGHER, FIRESTONE URGES
Car owners of this city were strongly urged today by Mr. Pettie, of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, local Firestone distributor, to buy tires now in preparation for their Fourth of July automobile trips.
"There is no reason this year," said Mr. Pettie, "why anyone should risk spoiling his holiday enjoyment by driving on worn and unsafe tires. Motorists now have a wonderful opportunity to equip their automobiles with new tires at the lowest prices in history. With an excise tax on tires and tubes effective on June 21, it is unlikely that the chance to buy at the prevailing low range of prices will continue much longer.
"With the Fourth of July holiday close at hand and with an eventual increase in price inevitable, no one should miss this annual opportunity. The pleasure you derive from a motoring trip over the Fourth depends on your tires. It is the unwisest economy to mar your whole day through tire failure. The money saved in trying to squeeze the last few miles out of a tire is insignificant compared with the expense and worry of an accident, with possible injury to motorist and his family, as a result of smooth or worn tires failing to stop the car in an emergency.
'In addition to the present low cost of tires, values have been greatly increased. In Firestone tires, the gum-dipped cords, two extra gum-dipped cord plies under the tread and the extra tough, slow wearing non-skid tread give the motorist the lowest cost per tire mile in history. These are construction features found in no other make of tire.'

A man heard Booker Coleman

We are sorry to lose a good band
but we are glad the boys got, a
break, they have worked hard this
year so as to give the folks of
Washington | music that satisfies.
Good-luck, boys:
At the end of each mile it is easy
to smile,
When you are traveling the road

But you are never allowed in the
Ha, Ha, Crowd,
If you have no. money cr health.
Dear Mr. Chols, what is the best
way to-stop my wife fom talking
in her sleep?
Why stop her, son, let her, taik—
She might mention his name,
Dear Mr. Chols, where is a good
place to send my wife for a vaca-
tion?
By all means, Stupid, send her
to the Thousand Islands, and let

Dear Mr. Chols, why doe: Billie

Haitian Minister Addresses Conservatory Graduates
The Washington Conservatory and School of Expression had its 29th annual closing June 23 and 24, awarding twelve certificates and four prizes to honor students.
The guest speaker of Friday evening, Monsieur Dantes Bellegarde, Haitian Minister to the United States delivered an eloquent address on Music and the Work of the Conservatory concerning which he had heard much and had become interested while in Haiti. He emphasized the importance of developing more and more the Negro's talent for music, a talent now recognized the world over as a distinct contribution to American music and that the Negro, more than other races have expressed their sufferings, their joys and sorrows through song. This racial expression should be preserved and developed to the highest and he hoped to see from this Conservatory some great composers who would add glory to the achievements of the race.
He referred to the Haitian composer Justin Ely who recently died in New York and who often used as his themes Haitian folk songs. The large and very appreciative audience was also delighted with the guest artist, Mrs. Ruth McAbee, of Batimore, a soprano of beautiful tone quality. Her soulful interpretation of the French song "Psyche," and the spiritual, "Sinner Please" Don't Let This Harvest Pass," brought forth enthusiastic applause to which she graciously responded in encores.
The President, Mrs. Harriet Gibbs Marshall returner to the city recently after presenting in New York for the Conservatory, "The Birth of Inspiration," at Roerick Hall. She finds the school under the direct management of Mr. and Mrs. Williams and a corps of seven teachers, in a fine condition with a surprising enrollment for these times of depression. This success also reflects credit upon the intelligent parents who realize the importance of cultral training. Mrs. Marshall will remain in Washington and will present an interesting program for the fall, with an enlargement of the work.
The students having the honor of having their certificates handed to them by Monsieur Dantes Bellegarde were: Teresa Adkins, Cornelia Copeland, Marion Lewis, Minnie May Shumate, Louis Lee, Ruby Dishman, John Devine, Arcolia T. Williams, Randolph Brooks, Odell Shumate, Wendell Shumate and Ada J. Scott.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY. JULY 1, 1932
HAD TOO MANY "MRS. ROBESONS," WIFE SEEKS DIVORCE
A.
LONDAN.—Because Paul Robeson, internationally known singer, had a Mrs. Robeson too many, Mrs. Paul Robeson filed suit for divorce in New York about a month ago, it was divulged by Mrs. Robeson this week. It is said an English girl was named as co-respondent, but Mrs. Robeson denies that she is the titled woman whose name has been linked with the singer for some time.
"I began proceedings in New York courts about a month ago and, hope to have my divorce soon," she said. "It is all perfectly friendly and we will keep on being friends, but we've seen so much of each other and both are just a bit tired and want our freedom.
"I am not giving the name of the correspondent because I don't know and don't care who she is. All I know is that those have been a Mr. and Mrs. Paul Robeson staying around New York hotels.
"It is most incredible, though, that people should be linking Paul's name with that of a famous titled Englishwoman, since she is just about the one person in England we don't know."
Francis A. Gregory, elder son of Mr. and Mrs. J. Francis Gregory of this city, graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology this June with the degree of Master of Science in Electrical Engineering and with the highest rating of all the graduate students leaving the department. It will be recalled that young Gregory was elected to the honorary engineering fraternity of Tau Beta Pi while he was a student at Case School of Applied Science in Cleveland, O. However, when the national organization learned of the action of the local chapter such pressure was brought to bear that the pledge was withdrawn, because of the race of the pledge.
A personal letter of commendation from Dr. Vannevar Bush, vice-president of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, reads:
"Dear Mr. Gregory:
"The record which you have made as a graduate student has been of exceedingly high grade. The splendid quality of your work, particularly during the present semester, places you as one of a group of six among the graduate students of the department with grades which were outstanding.
"On behalf of the Graduate Committee of the Department of Electrical Engineering I extend to you congratulations.
You may be assured that the department has been delighted to have contact with as excellent a student as you have proved to be.

CARD OF THANKS
The family of Mrs. Fannie Ware Taylor, being unable to touch personally the hundreds of friends and organizations who rendered care and comfort and inspiration through many tangible expressions during Mrs. Taylor's illness, and who expressed sympathy in prayers, words, cards, flowers and service after her passing, wish in this way to say, "We thank you, and God bless every one of you." Consider this not cold or not appreciative but flowing from warm leaving hearts.
A TRIBUTE
Dearest Alice, bedecked serenely,
In thy bed of silk and roses,
Sleep on, dear sister;
We will carry on.
Dearest Alice, with a love that
seemed divine.
Dear Alice, with a devotion for a mother,
Sleep on, dear sister;
We will carry on.
Dearest Alice, so cold and still,
Is that human affection also cold and still?
It doesn't seem reasonable;
Yet, sleep on, dear sister;
We will carry on.

STANDARD OIL CO. ADDS 4 COLORED SALESMEN
NEWARK, N.J.—Announcement was made this week that the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey has appointed four colored men for the first time in its history to operate one of the company's ser-
vice stations in Newark. News was given to the press by the men responsible for the company's step, Dr. Lloyd M. Granger, prominent dentist of Newark, and Lester B. Granger, extension worker of the Bordentown School. The two brothers have been working on the project for the past two months, and have held several conferences with Mr. Chapin, head of the sales department, and Mr. Honeyman, of the company's personnel service.
Standard Oil Company in New Jersey has never before employed Negroes at its service stations, with the single exception of an employee in Ridgewood, although considerable employment is given along other lines. Dr. Granger, in making the initial contact, offered to donate a site free of charge if the company would erect the station and put Negroes in charge. Although such an offer was not in line with the company's policy, its public-spiritednes interested the company officials to the point of meeting the two brothers in joint conference.
The Grangers pointed out that although Negroes were given a vast amount of employment by the company, they were not in contact with the public, and therefore were not known. Employed in service stations and in direct contact with the public, they would advertise the fact that Standard Oil knows no color line and would build up tremendous goodwill for the company throughout the country. The argument was brought forward that sales would actually be increased, due to patronage by colored car owners of a city where such a station was erected.
For several weeks the affair hung in the balance, while company officials conferred on the matter. Finally a list of qualified men

was asked for and was submitted by the Bordentown School worker. Ten men were selected by the company for interview, and four were appointed to begin work on April 15. Those chosen $ ^{e} $ are Dudley Johnson, South Orange; Marion White, Bluefield; Leonard Coleman, New-
ark; and Sumner Freeman, Trenton.
These men are assigned to Newark station whose exact location will be announced next week. The company officials were emphatic in their declaration that no color bar existed to rapid promotion and advancement of their new employees. Further appointments will depend upon the success of the present project. With this idea in mind, an impromotion committee of North Jersey leaders have gotten behind the movement to insure its success. Among them, Dr. Walter G. Alexander, former assemblyman; J. Bernard Johnson, assistant city prosecutor of Newark; Editor Clark of the Newark Perald; and many others have written to company offices endorsing its new step and pledging support.

TWO
DENTIST HELD IN DEATH OF WIFE AND MOTHER
Wife's Body Exhumed; Poison Found In Her Stomach
VAZOO, MISS. (CNS)—Dr. L. F. Packer, prominent dentist of Mississippi, confessed murderer of Norville Saunders, is being held in the county jail charged with insurance murder plot, which resulted in the death of his wife, Mrs. Annie Quinn Packer, his mother, his daughter, and a patient whose insurance money was made payable to him. A series of mysterious deaths during the past year, or his relatives and friends, all of whom made him the beneficiary of their insurance, led to investigation of all these deaths.
On May 21, John Undenwood, rity attorney, noticed blood on a tar near the home of Dr. Packer. Upon investigation he found the body of Noirville Sanders, colored, with his skull crushed. Later Dr. Packer was found in Zis home covered with blood. He later confessed to the killing of Sanders, saying that Sanders had a gudge against him. It was later revealed that the dentist had received a blackmail, note demanding $500.
Body Exhumed
Following his arrest for the murder of Sanders, an investigation was instigated which resulted in the body of his wife being exhumed and examined by the State chemist. Poison was found in the body. Sometimes ago after receiving a box of candy from her son, Dr. Packer's mother died suddenly and under suspicious circumstances. Mrs. Packer owned property in Yazoo City and was insured in her son's name. A few months later the doctor's wife and his 8-year-old daughter died suddenly after taking a ride with him. The report was that plomaine poison caused by eating canned meat resulted in their deaths, but his wife denied having partaken of any canned food. She and her daughter were insured for $11,000 with the dentist as the beneficiary.
Shortly, after this another Negro whose insurance was payable to Packer through a loan, died mysteriously. Dr. Packer, whose fame bids well to rival that of "Blue-heard Powers," is being held at the county jail here.
BORUM AND LOGAN DIE
IN CHAIR
(Continued from Page One)
the heels of his shoes dragged on the floor as he passed down the long, narrow chamber.
He sat in the chair and rested his hands on the seat. Guards strapped the electrodes to his head and legs. As the leather mask was being placed over his face, Father Affleck spoke to him and the man numbled the responses. The current was applied at 10:13. It was switched, off at 10:15, and he was pronounced dead at 10:19.
Logan Refuses Aid
In a letter addressed to newspapers Borum thanked Col. William Peak, jail superintendent, and others connected with the jail.
Logan was taken from his cell at 9:59 a.m. He walked briskly down the 13 steps that led to the death chamber. He refused the aid of guards.
Both men, together with Milton Guy, were tried and convicted in District Supreme Court. The case was carried to the United States Supreme Court. However, Guy was acquitted because of lack of evidence, while the conviction of the others was upheld. The appeal to the highest court attracted considerable attention as the men's attorneys contended the conviction was invalid because each man was accused of firing the fatal shot, but convicted with the others of slaying the dry agent.
The two were the eighth and ninth persons to be electrocuted here, and it was the first double death penalty since the chair replaced the gallows.
RETURNS TO CLEVELAND
Mrs. Grace M. Priece, of Cleveland, Ohio, who has been the house guest of her mother-in-law, Mrs. M. M.

Jury Frees Man on Charge Of Assaulting Woman
A jury in Police Court, Wednesday, exonerated George Muse, 35 F. street, northwest, on a charge of assault preferred by Mary Edelin, 521 New Jersey, avenue.
Miss Edelin claimed that Muse struck her with a bottle. Testimony was that Muse's wife and two other women were in an argument in front of 33 F. street, on June 27, when the third girl threw a stone at Muse's wife, the stone missing its intended victim and striking Miss Edelin.
Muse, who is employed at the Capitol Park Hotel, was represented by Attorney Thomas Beckett.
POLICEMAN RUNS OVER MAN
Harrison. People in the neighborhood told a Tribune reporter that Barnett has a reputation for being a "bad cop." Both men were charged with disorderly conduct and assaulting an officer.
A Tribune reporter who was in the vicinity at the time, heard the officer curse and make an attempt to run over other persons who were standing near the alley. The policeman used vile language when he saw his silk shirt was scratched with grease from handling the garage men. He claimed he was assaulted, although the men denied attacking the officer. They only took the pipe from him to prevent him from doing himself or others harm.
A letter of protest will be written to Major Glassford and the District Commissioners, as the officer plainly lost his head before and after the arrest.
People in the neighborhood said they would report the officer to his superiors for his activities in connection with speakeasys in this section.
COLONIAL STYLE DOMINATE GARDENS THIS YEAR
There has always been a style in gardens just as there has in architecture, interior decorating or clothes. Just now the style is definitely Colonial in honor of the George Washington Bicentennial year. The sweet old fashioned flowers which grew in old time gardens are appearing again in great profusion in the garden plans of this season.
There is great demand, according to the Division of Information of the United States George Washington Bicentennial Commission, for lists of those flowers and plants which probably grew at Mt. Vernon when our first great President made his home there, and which gayly blossom there today. The old flowers of the General's time are of course long since gathered to their ancestors, for flower lives are not immortal by any means, an more than human. The trees and shrubs which Washington planted are still flourishing; oaks and buckeyes are there which have grown from acorns and "horse chestnuts" brought by him from the battle fields whereon he spent so many years as boy and many ashes, poplars and indeed all the native trees are all about, but the flowers for the most part have been planted in recent years carrying out as nearly as possible the original plan of the garden.
The Nellie Custis rose which she planted is still there, and a Kentucky coffee-tree brought from Jefferson's garden at Monticello; as well as two hydrangea bushes planted by the south wall of the flower garden. There are also four "sweet shrubs"—Calycanthus floridus.
Of the flowers which adorned his gardens, as we have said, General Washington left little in the form of notes or observations. The boxwood hedges enclosed the flower beds which probably varied in appearance from year to year, for here would be planted only such annuals as were popular. Washington's garden doubtless kept well in advance in the style owing to the constant gifts of plants, seeds and roots from all over the world. There is no doubt for that matter but what Mount Vernon gardens set the style in flower planting, at least in the southern colonies.
The pink rose, called the Mary Washington for the General's mother, was planted and named by him; while the Nellie Custis rose, which he also named and put in an other corner, is the fragrant white, velvet-textured flower of romance that, from witnessing the lovemaking and betrothal of ardent Lawrence Lewis, the General's favorite nephew, and black-eyed Nellie Custis, his wife's granddaughter, acquired a spell so potent to stimulate indifferent or procrastinating suitors that none who come within its influence to this day can resist it. Hence these rich white buds and blossoms have ever been much sought by maids of high and low degree, whose affections are set on the unsuspecting and unresponsive; for to present "him" with either flower or bud, so tradition avows, or lead him to inhale its fragrance, quickens the coldest masculine heart—such was the rare quality of these old lovers' love, clinging to, intoxicating and saturating for all time the sympathetic rose, even as the rose breathed its fragrance over and around them, to heighten their delight.
The Nellie Custis rose still blooms and is the mecca of all visitors to the gardens.
While it is not always possible to actually lay out a Colonial garden and to carry on extensive landseaping, it is possible for everyone to plant flowers in honor of George Washington this year. A window box or a small bed at your entrance will serve to express the admiration and reverence you feel for the "Rather of His Country," who so dearly loved everything that grew and whose efforts and energies were centered, whenever possible, on beautifying his surroundings.
The United States George Washington Bicentennial Commission is sponsoring a campaign for planting flowers in every vacant strip of available soil during this summer. Lists of Colonial flowers, annuals, perennials, etc., with color combinations, will be sent free upon request. Please address the Garden Editor, United States George Washington Bicentennial Commission, Washington Building, Washington, D.C.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JULY 1, 1932
EXTRA
PEARSON,HERNDON FREED OF MURDER OF STOREKEEPER
George E. Herndon and Marvin Pearson were acquitted of the murder of Anton Ruppert white merchant, by a jury of seven men and five women in the District Supreme Court, Thursday evening. Ruppert, who conducted a store streets, northwest, was shot to streets, northwest, was shot to death by two holdup men on the night of February 20. A third man, who was alleged to have been with the bandits, escaped. Police were given descriptions of the bandits by Melvin Jackson, delivery boy, and Lewis Marshall, a fish dealer who conducted a stand near the scene of the murder. Marshall picked Pearson and Herndon out of a group of men at Police Headquarters. Both men denied knowing anything of the shooting and established that they were in another part of the city at the time of the murder.
Ruppert's son, who was in the store at the time of the murder, failed to identify Pearson and Herndon. Herndon and Pearson were arrested on the morning following the shooting. Attorney Denny Hughes represented Herndon, while Pearson was represented by Mr. and Mrs. F. Robinson Maddox. Assistant United States Attorney Irvin Goldstein conducted the prosecution.
BAPT. PASTORS FIGHT
(Continued from page 1 )
groups of pastors started. The meeting was thrown into a turmoil of confusion and arguments.
A motion by Rev. S. D. Lampkins to table the resolution was voted down, 18-8. Numerous accusations that certain ministers were upholding the white president McDonald, of Storer College, and that they were not giving the N.A. A.C.P. a chance to present its side of the situation were rumored about the room.
Following a requested re-reading of the resolution, Rev. W. D. Jarvis, having learned that the programs for the summer session were already out, made a motion to go to Storer College and accept the finding of the committee. This motion was seconded by Rev. G. O. Bullock. Rev. Hollomon, who opposed the indorsement of holding the institute at Storer College, obtained the floor and was voicing his objection when Rev. Nichols declared that he was making disparaging remarks against Storer College officials.
Ministers Clash
Rev. Hollomon attempted to continue his speech in the midst of repeated interruptions and confusion. During this tumult of confusion Rev. Nichols approached Rev. Hollomon and the two argued on the floor for several minutes. The verbal battle climaxed as Rev. Nichols struck Rev. Hollomon with his fists several times, causing him to fall to the floor. Before the fistic argument went to greater proportions fellow ministers rushed to the sides of the irate pastors and held them in check.
Following this demonstration, Rev. J. C. Olden attempted to quiet matters by singing a hymn. At this point Rev. Augustus Lewis, president of the conference, who had tried in vain all through the stormy session to obtain order, ordered all persons who were not members of the conference to leave the church. A Tribute reporter was also ejected from the meeting, later readmitted, and again asked out by the president. The ministers were later reported to have begged each other's pardon. The resolution to carry out the plans and hold the Christian Institute at Harpers Ferry was passed later in the evening, it was learned the next day.
Who Will Help Two Boys?
Two boys in Children's Home here, both quiet, well-behaved, mentally alert, ambitious, both sixteen years of age and well-grown for their age, must leave the Home by July 1, as children of that age are not retained in the institution.
These boys have no homes, as their mothers are widows and must work hard to earn small wages; so it is necessary that some home for the summer be secured for them at once. No school has so far been found that could or would take them this summer. It was hoped by those interested that this could be done, and that the boys could earn enough in this way to pay their entrance fees in the fall when school opens, as their mothers will hardly be able to do this for them.
Will some good person who can use one or both of these boys on the farm, at the summer home, camp, place of business, or in any other desirable capacity, please write at once to me?
The boys are promising material and must be saved now or else turned adrift and lost in the evil environments of the city streets.
Can we afford to lose them?

COLUMBIA TEMPLE NURSES GRADUATE

Boys' Camp Named After Donor; To Open July 25
Camp Lichtman is the name given the new camp for colored boys in the Sheennandhoo National Park by the Camp Committee, meeting Saturday morning at the Twelfth Street Branch Y.M.C.A. The name was in honor of A. E. Lichtman, of the Lichtman Theatres Corporation, who made the camp possible by a gift of $3,000 with which to secure permanent equipment.
This is the first time that the colored boys of Washington have had a permanent, camp site, a lease having been secured from the Federal Governmen' for a period of thirty years. Mr. Lichtman expresses the hope that the camp will develop from this humble beginning to the extent of attracting boys not only from the District of Columbia, but from near-by states as well.
The camp opens July 25 and will continue for a period of four weeks.

SOUTHERN DAILY PRAISES SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS
Chattanooga Times Writer Welcomes Return Of Convention To City
A writer on the editorial staff of the Chattanooga Times, a Southern white daily newspaper, in an editorial last week commented most favorably on the activities of the National Sunday School and Baptist Young People's Union Congress, which convened in that Tennessee city last week. The writer welcomed the return of the Congress to Chattanooga. Rev. W. H. Jernagin, usactor of the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church of tais city, is president of the Congress. The editorial follows:
"THE NEGRO CONGRESS "The National Sunday School and B.Y.P.U. Congress, colored, which has been holding its sessions in the Memorial Auditorium for several days, is a very significant gathering. It is representative of the religious, intellectual and cultural life of a large section of the Negro population, and it should be encouraging to all who are interested in the advancement of America's colored population.
“Particularly should the congress be an inspiration to the Negroes of this community. To begin with, it is a national affair. Despite the fact that times are hard, it is being largely attended. Those attending it are a credit to their race. The discussions have been scholarly and the deliberations have been on a high plane, while in the music have been combined training in the art and that peculiar quality which marks Negro singing and makes it a universal favorite.
Regardless of the position taken by the congress on various questions affecting society, the fact that these matters have been up for discussion and have received
consideration is most significant. It indicates the existence of a social consciousness and an appreciation of social responsibility that are encouraging, commendable and full of promise. It labels these people as members of a race which is on the highway of social, religious and intellectual progress.
The holding of the sessions of the congress in the Memorial Auditorium also has a meaning which should not be overlooked. It directs attention to a fact that may not always have been kept clearly in mind by some—that is, that the Memorial is a public building, that it is erected at the expense of the public generally, and that it is available to all who comply with rules regulating its use, without regard to race, creed or color. Chattanooga will look forward to a return of the National Sunday School and B.Y.P.U. Congress.[7]

RISHER REMOVED
(Continued from page 1)
(Continued front page 1)
Risher had nothing to fear from a trial.
"He is guilty of no crime," said Mr. David, "and we will prove it conclusively if the case ever comes to trial." Mr. David expressed doubt that the case would be pressed. Saying that an indictment was no proof of guilt and that Mr. Risher was presumed by the law to be innocent, Mr. David told the court that he believed that the indictment was the result of the activities of Risher's enemies, especially "a certain person in official position."
Mr. David argued that the records showed that Mr. Risher had taken over the hotel in a run down condition and made it a credit to the community and that he had faithfully accounted for every cent earned during his management.
At the end of the speech of counsel, Justice Adkins stated that he would adhere to his former ruling, saying that however innocent Mr. Risher might be, it was not the policy of the court to continue as an officer of the court in a fiduciary capacity, a person who was under indictment in another branch of the court, especially when he was objected to by one of the parties of the suit.
Among the names mentioned for Risher's successor were Louis C. Washington, former vice-president of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company; R. H. Horner, attorney at law; George E. C. Hayes, attorney at law; The Munsey Trust Company, Charles E. Cuney, attorney at law; Augustus W. Gray, attorney at law; Walter A. Pinchback, and James C. Waugh.
After telling the court that each of the nominees were of high standing for integrity and ability counsel finally agreed upon Mr. Gray and Mr. Cuney. The court stated that he would make the appointment and instructed counsel to prepare the necessary orders. Levi David, representing Mr. Risher, stated that he would appeal from the court's ruling.
Silhouettes Hold Sway
Last week was quite lively in Washington social circles. With several weddings, and the usual functions attendant thereto the week was decidedly gay. Then too the young folk did their share toward making the week socially attractive. The Silhouettes' dance at the charming Eleventh Street apartment of Miss Ruth Smith is one affair that the "Younger Generation" will not forget for some time. The decided exoduo to Richmond over the week-ends is beginning to establish the quaint old capital of the confederacy as a week-end mecca for Washingtonians.
The ladies appear very charming with their organdy dresses of gay colors and their wide brimmed hats. The young men are beginning to dress less formally and more comfortably. Linen suits are becoming more popular with flannels and mohairs having the second call.

BILL IN CONGRESS TO PROHIBIT RACE DISCRIMINATION
A bill was introduced in Congress on June 21, by Representative Crail of California, to prohibit discrimination on account of race or color in employment under contracts for public building or public works in the United States. The bill sets forth; That every contract for or on behalf of the United States or the District of Columbia for the construction, alteration, or repair of any public building or public work in the United States or the District of Columbia shall contain provisions by which the contractor agrees
(a) that in the hiring of employees for the performance of work under the contract or any subcontract thereunder, no contractor, subcontractor, or any person acting on behalf of such contractor or subcontractor, shall by reason of race or color discriminate against any citizen of the United States who is qualified and available to perform the work to which the employment relates:
(b) that no contractor, subcontractor, or any person on his behalf shall, in any manner, discriminate against or intimidate any employee hired for the performance of work under such contract on account of race or color; and
The bill provides the penalty that there may be deducted from the amount payable to the contractor by the United States or the District of Columbia under the contract a penalty of $5 for each person for each calendar day during which such person was discriminated or intimidated in violation of the provisions of the contract. The bill was referred to the Committee on Labor. It will probably be acted upon during this Congress. Some time ago a committee from the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People
and Washington Bar Association, headed by its president, Attorney Augustus Gray, made a protest to Secretary Wilbur against the discrimination shown to colored men in the building of Boulder Dam, a Government project now under construction. It is believed that this protest is responsible for the proposed legislation.

CARLOAD OF REFRIGERATORS DELIVERY
A full carload of Servel electric refrigerators was ordered by for the benefit of their customers, in time to avoid imposition.
SAVING CASH FOR CUSTOMERS
L. E. BISTIG, president of Bistig's, Inc., is shown in the picture at the upper right as he presented a check for more than $6,000 to the representative of the Servel electric refrigerator manufacturers. To the right is shown a portion of the huge shipment lined up on the sidewalk in front of the Bistig store.
Below is shown a reproduction from the Washington News of June 21, indicating how merchants may profit from the new tax measure. Bistig has chosen to pass savings on to the customers.
Treasury Can’t Stop Profiteering Under Tax-Tariff Measure
Dodging of Levies and Boosting of Prices Already Reported; Buyer Unprotected
Treasury officials said today they were powerless to prevent profiteering under the new tax scheme and manufacturers’ sales taxes which went into effect last midnight.
Officials already are receiving reports of instances in which the new taxes are being unjustly passed on to the ultimate consumer—the girl who buys a new lipstick or the man who buys a new auto or any of the scores of other articles to which the taxes apply.
The new sales taxes are paid to the Government by the manufacturer. And they are paid only on the goods which the manufacturer sells to wholesalers and retailers today and hereafter.

SAVING Real CASH for Our CUSTOMERS
In passing the new tax law, Congress anticipated that it would revive business by increasing sales during the 15-day tax exempt period. To attain this object, Ristig Inc. has invested more than $6,000.00 in the carload of refrigerators, a part of which are shown above. We are passing on the tax saving to our customers until the carload is disposed of.

FRIDAY, JULY 1, 1932
BAPTIST MINISTERS FAIL THE RACE
More than 200 local and nearby Baptist pastors have an organization here known as "The Baptist Ministers Conference" which meets each Monday at Florida Avenue Baptist Church, with the Rev. Augustus Lewis, pastor of the Jerusalem Baptist Church, as its president.
This organization is a potent power for good and is possibly the most powerful, or could be the most powerful organization for good in this city. Practically all of the Baptist pastors are members of this Conference. The Baptists have more churches here among Negroes than all other denominations combined. Some power to wield. But how do they wield it? Like most of our organizations, they are asleep on their opportunity.
The Baptist Ministers Conference is a big unwieldly body of men. They have no tangible program for the depression which has been ours for more than two years. They had a committee to investigate the terrible crushing rent evil here. Not much accomplished. They have no program for the unemployed, nor have they maintained an employment bureau.
A few weeks ago, Rev. C. T. Murray, pastor of Vermont Avenue Baptist Church objected to the Conference endorsing the summer school for ministers to be held at Storer College, Harpers Ferry, W. Va., because the trustees of that school, objected to the inscription on the tablet which the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People desired to place on John Brown's Fort on the Storer campus, in memory to John Brown. A committee was appointed to investigate this affair.
After beating around the bush for three or more weeks, this committee reported Monday, asking the Baptist Ministers Conference to endorse the proposed summer school and agree to attend the same.
Several of the leading pastors opposed this recommendation on the ground that the Baptist ministers were surrendering to the Daughters of the Confederacy who proposed the opposition to certain phrases on the John Brown tablet to the Storer trustees, who in turn refused to permit the tablet with that inscription to be placed on the fort.
The phrases objected to were "John Brown here struck a blow at slavery that awoke a guilty nation." The words "guilty nation" being objectionable to the rebel Daughters of the Confederacy and the phrase "Over his crucified body marched 200,000 Negro soldiers to war and 400,000 slaves to freedom."
The Conference failed the Negro in not supporting the principle of free speech involved in this controversy. The rebel Daughters of the Confederacy want to dictate what the Negro shall say and shall not say on his tablets to his heroes. The Negro certainly is in need of the principle of free speech which is supposed to be guaranteed by the Constitution of these United States. Why should the Baptist Ministers Conference of the District surrender the principle of free speech to the Daughters of the Confederacy?
As long as our ministers continue to expect the white man to play Santa Claus to the Negro and surrender the great principle of free speech for a mess of pottage we can not hope to advance our economic, educational, religious or civil freedom in a race prejudiced country like ours.
And to cap the climax, one minister lost his composure so much that he lost sight of his Christianity, his supposed piety, in support of the rebel objection to our free speech that he struck his brother minister with his fist and felled him to the floor because he had the courage of his convictions and boldly objected to the infringement on his constitutional right of free speech.
May God help the Baptist Ministers Conference.

On another page of this paper is an article on the unsightly appearance of Woodlawn Cemetery. The writer was out there Tuesday and it is really a crime for Negroes of Washington to permit such sloven, unkept, outrageous conditions to exist in the final resting place of their loved ones as is presented at Woodlawn Cemetery.
Where is our race pride? Our civic pride? Our much acclaimed love for our deceased loved ones when we permit our negligence to become an eye-sore to the public.
The roads are almost passable. The supposed walk ways between the lots and the graves are woefully overgrown with weeds and bushes. The grass, such as it is, seems not to have been cut this year. What can the management be thinking to permit such a run down, unsightly condition to exist in what, a few years ago, was said to be the most beautiful cemetery in Washington?
HOLD THE ELKS GRAND LODGE HERE
Since Los Angeles, California has asked to be releived of entertaining the Elks Grand Lodge this year and Washington has been suggested as a city to entertain it this August, The Washington Tribune endorses the suggestion and will join the two colored banks, the Chamber of Commerce and the Bicentennial Committee in asking the Grand Exalted Ruler to designate Washington as the meeting place for the big meeting in August.
Of course there will not be as large a crowd as would have journeyed to Washington, had this city been designated a year ago, or six months ago. But there are always people, plenty of them, who want to come to Washington and will take advantage of any opportunity to visit the Nation's Capital.
There will be more delegates at the Grand Lodge in Washington than would have gone to Los Angeles this year. However, it is not the delegates which make up the big crowd of late years at the annual meeting of the Elks. There are far more friends and curiosity seekers along with members of the delegates' families who swell the crowd in the city where the Elks meet to the largest number of Negroes present at an Elks Convention that assemble for any other annual meet. The Elks will bring the largest number of visitors to Washington for a week that has graced our city this year.

Although the two local lodges went on record Wednesday night as not wishing to entertain the Grand Lodge this year, the Grand Exalted Ruler has the power to designate the city where the lodge shall meet since the city designated at the last Grand Lodge asks to be relieved of its obligation.
Washington can entertain the Grand Lodge of Elks this year and is really in better economic condition to do so than any other city in these United States. We have not felt the depression here as keenly as the industrial cities and we can very well take care of the Grand Lodge of the Elks in August. On to Washington!

THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION
Quite naturally the events of the recent convention in Chicago, were closely followed by this columnist, and the activities of our delegates and alternates were duly recorded, and in the seating thereof.
As far as the Negro is concerned, the platform adopted is no more, or less, than what was to be expected. It carried the usual pledge for equal rights and opportunities. But platforms, like constitutions, are not always enforced.

The convention, however, did give the Negro something to rejoice over and that was the opportunity for a Negro orator, of unexcelled ability, to make the race feel proud of his efforts, especially when they were in direct competition with the best orators in the country.
Our orator, Roscoe Conklin Simmons, delegate from the first Illinois district, not only did well for a Negro, but from the Associated Press reports; several other news gathering agencies, and many feature writers, particularly Authent Brisbane, Simmons was the most eloquent orator at the convention.
Of his speech, seconding the nomination of Hoover for President, for the Illinois delegation, Brisbane says, in part:

Thoughtful Lines
Many things can stimulate us to push on; fear, ambition, curiosity, love, envy, and necessity—but necessity is by far the strongest.
Women regard the cigarette as a kind of symbol of freedom from the shackles which in the past bound them. They seem awkward and ill at ease and give no evidence of the contentment or enjoyment which men derive from the practice.
By conscience we should attain a feeling of moral obligation towards the various beings to whom we are related.
Our existence is dependent on a succession of changes, which are taking place at every moment in ourselves, over which we have no power whatever.
Excitement breeds crazes, not only in the financial world of speculation, but in other phases of life, particularly the religious.
Woman has assumed a heavy load of sex-ornamentation. This burden has weighed her down and hindered her mental progress, which should, by now, be on a par with that of man.
Invention and leadership are related phenomena. In a broad sense leadership includes inventing. Leadership must be preceded by a study of the social psychology of invention.
Science is not an obedient child, gentle and polite, to whom a promise or a caress is sufficient. It is harsh, cold, pitiless, requiring long years of sacrifice for tiny favors.
OTHER PAPERS SAY
WHAT THE NEW YORK AGE THINKS OF THE LEADER'S EDITORIAL
A tribute to the worth of Negro newspapers is contained in the following editorial which appeared in the Louisville, Ky. Leader:
There is no doubt about a particular field for the Negro newspaper. Every once and awhile that truth is brought home to us very vividly and decidedly.
Thus far the lives and interests of the two racial groups are so separate and distinct in so many respects that many affairs and happenings that are important and dominant to us are not so with the other group. These happenings are not carried in their papers. Northern and eastern papers prove an exception to the rule occasionally.

His Mother and Father Were Slaves, and he has in his heart the words of Lincoln," God never made a man good enough to hold his fellowman in subjection." There is no substitute for sincerity. *****
Regardless of what your political complexion may be, or whether you are a friend, or foe of Mr. Simmons, you must feel proud of him, when by his superior accomplishments he can attract so much favorable attention to himself, and indirectly to the race.
This writer is not a political "puffer" for either of the main parties, and the Communists, even with a Negro running on the ticket for vice-president, is not even to be considered, except as pertinent propaganda in the interests of the Communists.
The Democrats, in some sections, deny the Negro the right of equal franchise, while in other sections they openly welcome him and appoint and elect him to high places of authority. The Republicans of her, the Negro equal franchise rights but in practice, in some communities, deny him equal political opportunities.
Whatever your politics, however the race won a credit by the activities of our Roscoe Conklin Simmons at the recent Republican National Convention.
BOOK REVIEWS
"BEHIND GRAY WALLS"
By Patrick C. Murphy
(Caxton Printers, Ltd., Caldwell, Idaho).
The author, Patrick C. Murphy,
at the time of writing this book
(1927) was a life prisoner, No.
2338, of the Idaho State Prison,
and he writes descriptively, frankly and entertainingly of life behind gray walls of that particular institution.
While the author presents bits
outbiography here and there in the book, such sketches are not predominant and are very subtly weaved in only to illustrate a personal conclusion or opinion.
The most interesting feature of the book, to me, is the skilful and pertinent manner in which Murphy truthfully analyzes and describes the various types and characters that are to be found in all prisons, as well as the one in Idaho.
Many of the pertinent problems of inmate administration are treated in the book and in this respect, Murphy's local observation, are somewhat photographic of administrative problems to be found in most of the prisons throughout the country. In one or two chapters, the author, makes some very accurate and illuminating comparisons between the systems of penology, as administered centuries ago, and today. In fact, the entire book is worthy of the attention of all readers who are in any way interested either in the problems of prison managements or in the lives of those who spend years of their life behind gray-walls.
news by Negroes but not noticed by papers of the other group was kept for a year it would afford excellent evidence of the fact that most of the worthwhile things we do are constantly ignored by the press of the other group. We must include occurrences relative to the Negro. Take for instance the action of the Methodist Episcopal General Conference resolving not to meet in a place where its colored delegates will be subjected to discrimination. It was left for the Negro press to serve this piece of news to the public. So far as southern white papers were concerned, the Associated Press distributed the news in vain.
Herein lies no little argument in favor of Negroes taking race papers. We must keep informed about ourselves, and the only way to do that is by subscribing for our own papers, patronizing and encouraging them, pay for subscriptions and printing and advertisements so they may render even better service in the collection and

WILL THE EIGHTEENTH
AMENDMENT BE REPEALED?
A tidal wave of wetness has swept over the nation. The straw vote of the Literary Digest, showed that the nation is practically two-thirds wet. This does not seem to me to be a deliberate judgment but a hasty conclusion based upon the unsatisfactory outcome of the "noble experiment." Politicians of both parties are striving to catch the wet tide at flood, hoping thereby to be swept on to fortune. Those who do these things show plainly that they have no moral conviction. Prohibition is looked upon as an available issue to attract or repel votes. History repeats itself. The anti-slavery struggle and the prohibition fight run parallel and on all fours. The old Whig Party tried to side-step, dodge, and evade slavery as a moral issue. As a result it was asunder and lost without trace. In those days there arose the Republican Party instinct with righteous purpose and moral energy. It frankly faced the institution of slavery as the moral iniquity of the nation and pledged itself to its undoing. The adversaries—both those who espoused the untoward side of slavery and those who temporized with it—were swept away by the aroused conscience of the nation. Will now the Grand Old Party imitate its Whig prototype and invite a like fate? Would Abraham Lincoln have accepted a nomination on a platform which equivocated on the question of slavery? Contrast the Republican Convention at Chicago of 1860 and 1920. How has the mighty fallen from grace. The Republican prohibition plan is intended to be all things to all men in order that it might catch the hesitant voter. To the wets it may be interpreted as wet, while to the drys it is interpretable as dry. It is neither hot nor cold but lukewarm. Secretary Mills and Postmaster General Brown were the chief agents and mouth organs of the administration in fabricating the great conundrum. Under severe flagellation by Senator Borah, they are both now disclaiming that the platform advocates repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment. If they did not mean repeal, then what under heaven, did they mean? In 1922, Senator Borah and President Nicholas Murray Butler espoused the causes of wet and dry before the Convention. No single delegate, no American citizen above the grade of the Moron misunderstood the position of these great champions. They both had deep seated moral convictions. They used language to reveal, and not to conceal their meaning. Plain principles call for plain speaking. Men love circumlocation rather than straight forward speech because their deeds are evil. Think of misunderstand-
publication of race news.
Since such a large proportion of Negroes subscribe for white dailies, let us hope that they will become broader-minded and fairer and give space to not only the news that does not reflect credit on the race, but also to the creditable things and the large happenings of merit that involve and affect Negroes.
It might be added that the Negro weeklies can only grow great as they receive a large support of the people they serve.
MY HUMBLE PRAYER
Our Father who art everywhere,
Hear this, my humble prayer;
Forgive, O Lord, my every sin,
Unto Thy Kingdom take me in.
Give me each day my daily bread;
Then by Thy grace may I be led.
I shall have no other God but Thec,
Before no idol bow my knee.
I will not take Thy name in vain,
Nor the blessed Sabbath day pro-
fane.
I'll give my parents the honor due,
I'm sure no murder will I do.
Abstain from, words and deeds un-
clean,
Will not steal tho I may be poor
and mean.
Nor tell a wilful lie, and love it,
What is my neighbors I will not
covet.
I'll give every man an honest day,
And expect from him the same in
pay.
If there's anything that I've forgot,
Forgive me, Lord, and scorn me
not.
Guide me from temptation's ways,
Thy name and glory I will praise.
My favorite song shall ever be
"Jesus, Saviour, pilot me."
It has been well said that a marriage proposal means much more today (when spring and fall styles change rapidly) than formerly, when the young wife wore a shawl or dress which she made herself with pride.
ing Abraham Lincoln on the slavery question. But because of the simister purpose hidden between the words is will take most of the time of Republican spellbinders to explain just what the prohibition plank does or does not mean.
The Democratic plank will probably be clear and unmistakable. It will declare for repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment in language so plain and simple that a way faring fool need not be confused thereby. Unless some other issue is injected in the campaign to sidetrack prohibition, the Democrats will probably win. The plain unsophisticated voter prefers plainness to indecision and confusion. The strategy of Republican leaders from now on will be to find some other subverting issue, either in our domes, ties affairs or foreign relations and thus beguile the voter into forgetfulness of the blunder of the moral straddle at Chicago.
Let it be taken for granted that in the present state of the public mind the wets will probably triumph at the election. Will that mean the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment? By no manner of means. There is no human likelihood that they will carry two-thirds of both branches of Congress, a condition precedent to the proposal of a constitutional Amendment for repeal. But even should they sweep the country by such unprecedented majority, it still requires a majority of the legislatures of three fourths of the states, by concurrence of both branches in the several states to ratify the proposed amendment. I do not believe that there can be found a single American with reputation for sanity who believes that such a result is possible.
Then what is to be the result of all this ballahq about prohibition? It will simply lead to the utter debacle of the law enforcing machinery. It is impossible to enforce a law which both of the great political parties repudiate, directly or indirectly. The platitude of the Republican platform about strict enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment while it remains in the Constitution is a most disgusting expression of insincerity. Why not likewise declare for the strict enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments because they are part of the organic law.
It seems inevitable that the Eighteenth Amendment will be nullified with impunity pending the political agitation concerning its stability. Those who believe in the moral principle of prohibition will have to patiently abide the time when the awakened conscience of the American people will assert itself on prohibition as it did on slavery under the guidance of Abraham Lincoln.
Lynching League
JASPAR, Fla.—(ANP)—Because it was alleged that he had shot and killed Police Chief Ira E. Fowler of this city, Henry Woods was tracked down Tuesday and murdered by a mob of farmers and townmen who, after they had fired 150 shots into Woods' body, transported it to the scene of the murder and burned it.
The state of Florida thus contributes the fourth to the total of lynchings for this year and the second such murder of a colored man in continental United States. There have been five lynchings on United States territory in 1932, the first occurring in Hawaii, when a naval lieutenant, Thomas Massie, his mother-in-law and two enlisted men, murdered Joseph Kahawaii. Of the lynchings on the mainland of the United States, two have been of white men and two of Negroes. The whites were lynched in Kansas and Kentucky, the Negroes, in Texas and Florida. Wednesday, the United States senate approved the Patterson Bill making transport on of kidnapped persons in interstate commerce punishable by federal isw. It is thought by some persons that if this bill is enacted into law, it may be invoked in many lynchings cases.

BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL
NUMBER OF NEGRO PH.D'S GROWS RAPIDLY
CHICAGO, Ill. (ANP)—During the year 1927-28, Prof. Harry W. Greene, director of the department of education at West Virginia State College, published in Opportunity Magazine a report on the number of Negroes who had earned the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, or its equivalent. At that time, scarcely five years ago, Prof. Greene was proud to point to a total of 39 such Negroes.
But such has become the demand for highly trained teachers in the program of lifting the status of Negro* colleges and universities that within the last four years the number of persons earning such educational distinction has increased more than thirty-three per cent, so much so that the Ph.D.'s nowadays are almost in one another's way.
Prof. Greene has just concluded another study, published in School and Society, last month. His early inquiries and tabulations produced a total of 68 Negroes holding either the Doctor of Philosophy degree or its equivalent. But in order to be sure that no unworthy persons were included in the record, Prof. Greene culled his lists over and over until it was finally reduced to sixty whom he could actually bet on, an increase of 21 since 1927.
The following schools have awarded these degrees: University of Chicago, 13; University of Pennsylvania, 9; Yale University, 5; Harvard University, 4; Boston University, 2; Columbia University, 4; Northwestern University, 2; University of Illinois, 2; Clark University (Mass.), 2; Cornell University, 2; New York University, 2. Other Universities
Ohio State University, the University of Cincinnati, the University of London (England), the University of Jena (Germany), the University of Michigan, Radcliffe College, La Sorbonne (Paris), the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of Heidelberg (Germany), the University of Southern California, Middlebury College, the University of Syracuse, Illinois Wesleyan University, and the University of Wisconsin are institutions that awarded one such degree.
Among these doctoral degrees appears a doctor of science and a doctor of modern languages from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Middlebury college, respectively.
The leading fields of specialization for these doctors are the natural and the social sciences, with fifteen and sixteen, respectively. English and modern languages as fields have doubled their record during the four years since Mr. Greene's last tabulation, while the field of professional education also had an increase of 100 per cent.
What They Are Doing
Of the sixty holders of the doctoral degrees eight are women. Some holders of the degrees have died. There is no data indicating accurately the field of service in which all the persons who have woh these high degrees are employed. Mr. Green states, however, that forty-seven are (or were) in educational work of some, kind, including three college or university presidents and three principals of elementary and high schools. One is an assistant professor of pathology at the University of Chicago; another is a very outstanding journalist, writer and social leader; still another is a senior educationalist in the office of education in charge of research in the education of Negroes. The Bureau of Juvenile Research in Chicago has one on its staff. Massachusetts Institute of Technology is reported as having another on its staff as research associate in chemical engineering. Three others are engaged in research, writing, journalism, welfare and religious work. One (a woman) is an eminent lawyer and three others are physicians.
VIRGINIA STATE PROFESSOR GETS $1500 FELLOWSHIP
PETERSBURG, Va.—Professor Luther Jackson, head of the Department of History and Social Sciences of Virginia State College, has received a fellowship of $1,500 from the General Education Board for a year's study at the University of Chicago, which will enable him to complete the residential requirements for the degree of Doctor of Phylosophy in History. This is the second time that the General Education Board has recognized the worth of Prof. Jackson; for in 1928 a similar fellowship was awarded him for advanced study toward the doctorate degree at the same institution.
In addition to this fellowship the Professor recently received a "Grant in Aid" of $300 from the Social Science Research Council. This award was made in order to aid in the completion of a study of "Negro Labor and Property Holdings in Virginia Prior to Emancipation. As a result Mr. Jackson will spend a part of the ensuing summer in travel
"NEGROEDUCATION INSTILLS FALSE VALUES" - PEYTON
Dean Peyton Says This Causes Our Graduates To Seek White Collar Jobs
LYNOHBURG, Va.—Dean W. S. Peyton, of Virginia Seminary, speaking to the students and faculty at chapel on Wednesday of last week, brought an indictment against Negro education to the effect that it instills a false sense of values in the minds of our graduates causing them to seek white collar jobs. The dean declared that too many Negro professionals crowd into our large cities and neglect the opportunities for real service and success in the small towns and rural communities. The dean prefaced his lecture with a brief statement of the vocational guidance movement. He was the second chapel lecturer in a series of four chapel lectures in observance of National Vocational Opportunity Week by Virginia Seminary faculty members.
On Monday the program was sponsored by the high school European history class. Miss Mildred Thompson read a paper on "The Vocational Range of the Negro During Slavery." Clothier Johns read a paper on "Trends in Negro Employment Since Emancipation," and Miss Irma Floweres read a paper on "The Negro Students' Problem in Choosing a Vocation." Miss Selma Davenport recited Paul Lawrence Dunbar's poem entitled "In the Morning."
The vocational opportunities for the Negro in the field of journalism, literature and art were discussed by Prof. James O. Hopson, principal of the high school at Virginia Seminary, at chapel on Tuesday morning. He carefully outlined the various phases of art, literature and journalism into which Negroes may go for a livelihood stressing the fact that Negro employment is seriously limited in certain fields on account of color prejudice.
Prof. T. R. Tynes, instructor in science at Virginia Seminary, said in his lecture on Thursday that the field in science and invention is a promising one, but not for Negroes. He pointed out the difficulty of securing scientific training in Negro colleges and universities because of the lack of equipment and teaching facilities. Prof. Tynes emphasized the underlying economic cause of unemployment among educated classes and the masses. He expressed the conviction that vocational guidance is no adequate remedy for our economic ill. He also stated that vocational opportunity is merely a phrase under our present decadent economic system.
President Vernon Johns, closed the week's observance on Friday with a sermon showing the dignity of labor. The President took time to explain his views on the Negro's economic problems. President Johns declares that Negro education in the future must be a germaine part of some trade or vocation directly connected with making a living.
