Green, president of the Liberty Industrial Life Insurance Company, grand chancellor of the Knights of Pythias of Louisiana, and supreme chancellor of the Knights of Pythias of North America, South America, Europe, Asia Africa and Australia, has written a letter denouncing the Hoover policy. His letter follows: "New Orleans, La. July 2, 1932. "Honorable Frank C. Labit, "Chr., Republican State Central Committee, 315 St. Charles St., New Orleans, La. "Dear Sir: "I shall not vote for the re-election of President Hoover, next November, for the following reasons: "First, he has discriminated against colored Republicans by refusing to appoint them to any office in the South, except postmasters in towns composed of colored people. "Second, he has steadfastly refused to appoint qualified colored men and women to office in the North in the advice and consent of ... Senate was required, except in two or three instances. "Third, he has discriminated against colored Republicans by refusing to appoint them to membership on any of his numerous boards and commissions, except in one or two instances when he appointed what was practically "Jim Crow" boards or commissions. "Fourth, in his appointments to Federal offices in Georgia, he has ignored the National Republican committeewomen, Mrs. George S. Williams, against whom there was not a scintilla of evidence or charges in the handling of Federal patronage, and in which State there was no national committeeman recognized at that time. "Fifth, in his appointments to Federal offices in Mississippi he has ignored the Perry W. Howard, national Republican committeeman, and Mrs. Mary C. Booze, national committeewoman. **Ignores Lynching** "Sixth, he has disregarded the constitutional requirement to report to the Congress the state of the country by ignoring the numerous cases of lynching in which my racial group were the most numerous victims. "Seventh, he ignored and trampled upon the rights and privileges of the colored citizens of this country by insisting upon the confirmation of Judge Parker, of North Carolina, to the Supreme Court bench of the United States, over the protests of all of the colored organizations and the leading colored men and women of the United States, after it had been shown that Judge Parker, in a public address, had expressed opposition to the use of the ballot by colored people.

ONE KILLED AS TWO GIRLS FIGHT DUEL OVER MAN Miss Jane Parker Held For Grand Jury in Death of Mrs. Manzel Reed A duel with knives over the love of a man resulted in the death of one girl and the serious injury to another during a fight, Thursday night in an alley in rear of 607 Gordon avenue, no mean. The dead girl is Mrs. Manzel Lee Reed, 20, 620 D street, northeast. Following an inquest into her death at the District Morgue Saturday, morning Miss Jane Parker, 23, 44 Myrtle street northeast, was held for the action of the grand jury. According to testimony at a corer's hearing Miss Parker and another girl, Ruth Smith, 609 Three and a Half street were arguing over a man who is only known by the name of "Chink-a-Pin." Mrs. Reed came on the scene and joined in the argument. She is alleged to have made threatening remarks to Miss Parker, who ran to the home of her sister, Hazel Parker, 607 Gordon avenue. It was testified that the Reed woman caught Miss Parker before the latter could get into the back gate. A fight ensued in which Miss Parker was cut about the head and face. Police said Miss Parker stated that she took the knife from Mrs. Reed during the fight and cut her assailant several times. Mrs. Reed was taken to Sibylla Hospital where she was pronounced dead soon after arrival. A severed jugular vein proved fatal. Miss Parker was arrested in front of the Gordon avenue address. She appeared at the Morgue with several long gashes across her head and face. One cut extended from the top of her head to the chest. Tried to Stop Fight James R. Andersno, a witness, said he tried to stop the fight, and stood between the combatants long enough for Miss Parker to run to her sister's gate. However, Mrs. Reed caught the girl before she entered the yard. Fred Hawkins, another eye-witness, said Miss Smith and Mrs. Reed had knives and at one time Mrs. Reed stabbed a girl in the back, the blade breaking off. John T. Crane, 615 Gordon avenue, said he heard Mrs. Reed tell Miss Parker, "We'll fight it out or cut it out." The dead woman is said to have a police record and is known to carry a knife. 150 Pittsburghers Leave To Join Bonus Army Here Pittsburgh, Pa.,—About 150 colored men left Sunday morning for Washington, D. C. This is the first all-colored detachment to leave the Steel City. These forces take on an organized form. All are members of American Legion or V. F. W. Posts and are making the trip as a part of the program-adopted by these posts. In the lineup will be many prominent faces, whose parents belong to that group known as "First Pittsburghers." Although the majority are unemployed at present, they are not wholly destitute. The decision to join the Bonus City forces was made more to aid in forcing action upon the bonus measure—or Legislation which would relieve the unemployment situation.

ASBURY LEWIS IS KILLED OVER BET IN POKER GAME ASBURY LEWIS IS KILLED OVER BET IN POKER GAME Arthur Childers Tells Police He Shot In Self-Defense After Being Struck An argument over a poker game bet led to the fatal shooting of Asbury Lewis, 51-year-old furniture mover, Saturday evening, during a fight with Arthur Childers, self-confessed bootleger.

RED CAPS HERE REBEL AGAINST CLEANERS' WORK 179 At Union Station Refuse To Do Work For Work They Are Not Paid Red Caps at Union-Station refused this week to do the work of cleaners at the station without pay. W. H. Marks, station master, held a meeting of the Red Caps in the basement of the station Wednesday and outlined a plan whereby the men were to do the work of the station cleaners gratis. The cleaners are on a regular salary while the Red Caps have to depend entirely on itps from travelers. There are about fifteen cleaners employed at the present time. The plan was to dismiss these men or make them Red Caps. In addition, Marks pointed out, he would reduce the number of Red Caps so as to enable those left to earn more. There are about 179 Red Caps at the station and recently each man is forced to take a day off each week. This plan eliminates 26 men each day. Some of the Red Caps have been in the service for periods of 20 to 25 years. Some of the men told a Tribune reporter that the average pay is about $2 per day. Many of the Red Caps admitted that there were too many employed and station officials had received complaints from the public. The men over anxious to make a living, have been annoying travelers, it was said. Marks outlined that he would drop about 25 of the men and those left would do the work of the regular cleaners at the station. Some time ago, the Red Caps say, the train announcers were dismissed and they were then asked to announce trains. This they refused to do. The work was then turned over to the information clerks. Company officials say the announcers were not necessarily dismissed—that their status depended on seniority. Since then, the Red Caps say, efforts have been made to induce them to do the work for nothing about the terminal, but Tuesday's request that they take the job of cleaning the place they character- (Continued on page 2) Electrocuted FREDERICKSBURG, Va. — Alenzo Lewis, 19, and Theodore Coleman, 23, were sentenced to 25 years in the State Penitentiary by Judge Frederick W.

In sentencing the men the judge said he regretted that he had not the power to "send them to the electric chair." JAMESE E.

In its unanimous opinion, the court held that the Baltimore County Court throughout the past 25 years showed "an established practice, or system, in which no opening is left for members of the Negro race to obtain places on juries, and that this amounts to exclusion in the constitutional sense." Lee was charged with killing Green K. Davis, an Eastern Shore farmer, his wife and their two daughters after Davis had discharged him. The Court of Appeals found no fault with the trial of the case other than inability of Negroes to qualify for jury duty. Chief Judge Carroll T. Bond, who wrote the opinion, said: "There is no question of error or lack of fairness in the trial by the jury as ultimately formed." However, on the point on which the new trial was granted, he said "The evidence with the long unbroken absence of Negroes from the jury selected, seems to show an established practice, confining selections to white men as effectually as if such a restriction were prescribed by statute." While Negroes have been denied jury duty in many counties of Maryland, it is not uncommon for them to be summoned for duty in Baltimore. Lee's attorneys were retained for him by the International Labor Defense, a Communist organization. Bernard Ades, white, Baltimore attorney represents Lee. 14-Year-Old Girl Over Come By Excessive Heat One prostration resulted from the heat on Friday when Miriam Retta McKee, 14-year-old girl, was overcome as she played in her home, 2722 Tenth street, northeast.

ALONZO BOHANNON FIGHTS WITH WIFE BOTH TO HOSPITAL Mother Of A Month Fights To Exhaustion With Husband; Man Arrested Alonzo Bohannon, one of the new instructors at Howard University, was arrested Friday morning, July 1, and put under $600 bond to answer charges of disorderly conduct in house and (carrying) dangerous and deadly weapon. In police court, Saturday morning, the disorderly charge was dismissed; a jury trial was demanded on the other charge, and the date set for July 13. Bruised, bleeding and hysterical Mrs. Jeanne Bohannon was found by neighbors answering her frantic calls for help, huddled in a corner of a first-floor corridor of Howard Manor Apartments, George Avenue and Girard street, when she had fallen in an effort to escape the wrath of her husband Alonzo Bohannon, instructor of commerce and finance at Howard University. Shortly before eight o'clock Friday morning, July 1, residents of the exclusive Howard Manor were disturbed at their breakfast by terrifying screams. Rushing into the hall they found Mrs. Bohannon beaten almost beyond recognition pitifully crying for help for herself and her one-month-old baby. $o$ pitiful was her condition that neighbors and the manager of the building hesitated to move her without the advice of a physician They had been working with her some time, trying to quiet her be fore the husband appeared.

Smallwood Williams was flim-flooded out of $5 by a impostor, Monday. The pastor of the Bible Way Church of Christ returned to his home, 2234 Eighth street, northwest, Monday midnight, to find a stranger seated on his doorstep. The stranger appealed to the sympathy of the pastor when he presented his tale of woe. He explained that he was a prominent Philadelphia physician who had been victimized by a pick-pocket and robbed of all his money. He only wanted to borrow $5, just enough to purchase a ticket home, which he said, cost $4.90, and the other 10 cents to secure a ham sandwich. As security for the loan he offered a flashy diamond ring. The minister appeared doubtful at first, but when the well-dressed stranger mentioned the fact that he had attended the Sunday evening service at the Bible Way Church and was inspired by the pastor's words to seek encouragement from him in time of stress, the minister opened his pocketbook. The stranger got the money and the pastor the ring. Upon examination of the ring, Rev. Williams found the diamond to be only paste and rushed to the Second Precinct where he made his report.

ESTABLISHED 1921 Government Contract For Burial of Soldiers and Sailors MANY STUDENTS IN VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE Farm Shop Work Important Part of Vocational Agricultural Courses How itinerant teacher trainers travel from one Negro vocational agriculture school to another showing teachers how to organize and operate the farm shop courses given for the boys in these schools is outlined in a report received by the Federal Board for Vocational Education. The work of these teacher trainers is supported in part, by the State departments of education in Louisiana, South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, and Mississippi. To illustrate what can be done by the itinerant teacher trainers who serve teachers of Negro vocational agriculture schools, the Federal Board for Vocational Education, points to the method used by one of the itinerants, W. W. Wilkins, and to a specific instance of his instruction activities. Wilkins gets around the country by means of a special truck int which he carries the tools he needs in giving instruction to teachers. Let us follow Mr. Wilkins as he arrives at the Great Branch vocational school near Orangeburg, S.C., and see how he proceeds. The first thing he did was to find out from the students what type of repair work they thought was needed at their homes. Next he drove out to some of the honest of those who seemed interested in doing repair work. At the home of a farmer who had two sons in the vocational agriculture school he found a number of repair and con struction jobs. The farmer agreed to buy the lumber and other materials necessary for the jobs. Four distinct jobs were laid out—the construction of a new poultry house and a new tool shed, changing the location of the garden fences, and repairing a HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE College Orchestra Making Good---Will Stay Intact All Summer THE JAZZ BAND THE A. & T. COLLEGE ORCHESTRA OF GREENS BORO, N.C., made a tremendous hit in all of the cities in which it has appeared. By popular demand the organization has decided to remain intact during the summer months. The group has just returned from a very successful tour of Eastern Carolina. During the latter part of June the Orchestra appeared in some of the Virginia towns. Norfolk, Suffolk, Buckroe Beach and Danville are noted as so me of the Virginia cities already visited. M. L. Walls is director, and A. G. Walker, booking agent. All members of the orchestra are students of the Agricultural and Technical College. E. J. Ahern, who instructs the College Band, also instructs the orchestra. Members of the orchestra are: Front row, left to right—W. T. Grimes, Wm. Tillman, G. L. Burge, C. A. Dupree, P. Pearson, M. L. Walls (leader standing), A. G. Walker, J. T. Speller. Back row—V. A. Burgress, C. Durrie, C. E. Smith, and W. L. Peay. stayed long enough at the Great Branch school to make a drawing of the farm showing the exact location of the different buildings to be erected. Before he pushed on to the next vocational agriculture school he left instructions with the Great Branch teacher of agriculture to get all the materials together for the job, and promised to return a little later and show the teacher how to start the farm shop students off on the work planned on the local farm. for another school, there to repeat what he had done at the Great Branch school. It is an easy matter to tell the localities in which the itinerant teacher trainer has been practicing his art by the improvements which are being made on the home farms of students. The observation of the Federal Board for Vocational Education is that in order that the best work in farm shop practice may be done it is necessary for vocational agriculture. Fay Williston with the Presbyterian Glee Club will present the program. Mrs. Lillian McRae has returned from her vacation and reports an enjoyable stay. Mrs. Mary F. Thompson, membership secretary is now on her vacation. Mrs. Sadie Harper Jefferson, former house director was a visitor last week and also the guest of the House Committee which met Friday night.

Zion Baptist Church. At 11 a.m., the pastor preached an inspiring sermon from Mark 1:15, theme "Repent." The church visitors were Marion E. Jones of Roberts Chapel M.E. Church, Alexandria, and Mrs. Flora Tyler, Mt. Olive Church. And to see Mr. Wilkins organize and start the work on this farm when he returned was an eye opener. Before the actual work began he discussed it thoroughly with the agricultural teacher and the pupils of the Great Branch school. He used the sketches and plans he had drawn up originally to explain just how the work should proceed and what part of the work each student should undertake. While some of the 12 boys who aided in this job as a part of their farm shop work were tearing down the old garden fences and erecting new ones another group was busy erecting a poultry house, and still another was repairing farm tools. The farmer on whose place the work was being carried out, as well as his two sons, were working with the teacher and the other boys when the teacher trainer pulled out for another school, there to repeat what he had done at the Great Branch school. It is an easy matter to tell the localities in which the itinerant teacher trainer has been practicing his art by the improvements which are being made on the home farms of students. The observation of the Federal Board for Vocational Education is that in order that the best work in farm shop practice may be done it is necessary for vocational agriculture schools not only to have good buildings and equipment but also that the farm shop teachers be trained for their job. And the itinerant teacher trainer is doing his part in the teacher-training job. Negro farmers who are interested in enrolling their boys in vocational agriculture schools in their community may get information concerning these schools by addressing a letter to the State Supervisor of Vocational Education in Agriculture, who is usually located at the State Capitol.

Brookins represented the University of Iowa, and although he is generally classed as white, he is of Negro parentage. Brookins denied he was a member of the Negro race some Years azo when he was a member. of the Olympic. team. However, I have ic on good authority that he is of the colored race, Brookins married a white girl after leaving school and was later employed ft the University. of Towa. Since then jhe has sought and seeured a divorce ert later married again, only to find that the second ventnre turned out like the first, Due to this matrimonial difficulty Broodeing has left the school, ‘While on the Olympic team Brookins associated most of the time with Negro athlstes.

Johnson was the first to win national recognition, and later pM this country in Europe. Johnson was born in Fred- ccibkaburg, Va. and benan ‘his esrly training in the Army. Later he went to timore and was employed at the Y.M.C.A. in that, city.

At present Johnson is doing athletic’ work at one of the big steel mills in Pennsylvania and has been instrumental to encourage many boys in athletics, i DEFEATED YOUNGSTERS IN TWO-MILE RUN Johnson was one of the cleanest athletes I have ever known. As & rule few athletes are. willing to pay the price in training that is re- quired to become a distance runner.

Eddie Tolan, Michigan sprint king, and Ralph Metcalfe, Marquette sophomore, will attempt to win team places. Tolan is almost certain of a berth in the 200 meters, having run 220 yards in 20,0 seconds. Metcalf, 21-year-old Chicago youth, has twice this season ran 100 yards in 9.5 seconds. He won the Drake Relay century in this time.

He readily agreed to be the donor of a trophy, but was desirous of obtaining some infor- mation as to whether track and field meets were helping us as a group to abolish race prejudice, proscription and ostracism. Were we developing closer and friendlier relations with our white brothers? Were we breaking down barriers, ancient and mediaeval customs and conventionalities that have hither- to proven as hindrances and handi- caps to the Negro’s progress and his advancement? To each one of these questions I unheritatingly an: swered in the affirmative. The records and achievements made by race athletes in the East and patticularly in the West bear mute testimony to the success of inter-racial athletics. Let us take a brief glance at the athletic pic- ture as it stands in the large East- ern cities of New York and Phila- delphia. From the early days of public school and the small white and colored school boys are placed together in athletic competition in the various sports. Track and field is by far the most popular of the Athletic games among these youne- sters. The same plans hold true for the high school athletes. When our colored boys enter high school (mixed) they are usually met with mingled emotions of curiosity, em- barrassment, as is evidenced by their white ‘classmates. But this condition usually wears away. Es- Pecially doce this hold true it, « ‘egro student develops into an ath- lete hero of his school. Hero Worship On several occasions when Ne- Niue ‘Gitlete sail sn track gat = set ‘great fe the paleo the adul- grea! ation ‘stb eer his white re. mates ‘upon Tad ‘hosted to te shoulders ot ts ‘Nevdie beoters in itp triumph. Moreover I have ited an oc casion when a great Negro high futh on the live by an admiring that he scored the winning touch- down for his Alma Mater. These eases that I have mentioned are illustrated, merely to prove that athletics is a great eliminator of racial and class barriers, Personally I would not trade my school memorits for anything else in the wofld. I shall ever retain fond recollections of genuine and sincere friendships. that I formed with devoted white classmates. mainly formed through mutual competition in these inter-racial athletics. Tt appears somewhat superfluous to mention the wonderful treat- ment that is accorded to Negro athletes “out West.” In 1930 two colored athletes were co-captains of Western Teachers’ College in the State of Michigan. These two boys were stand-outs on the track team, and were duly recognized. Their names were Loving and Gaines. : After all this vexing problem of race aS is in reality a men- tal “disillusionment.” The white man believes that because the Ne- gro has a dark skin he is incapable of competing with him’ in matters that require concentration, deliber- ation, or feats of strength. When a Negro does appear on the horizon and excels him in those same things that he had deemed himself superior tn, then. the Nordic's re- spect for the Negro becomes great- er, his affection moge sincere and genuine.

A bill putting this recommendations into effect was presented to the legislature. It will be recalled that Downingtown was "cut" 48.32 per cent of its State appropriation for 1932-33. Combined with a loss of income though a 15 per cent reduction in fees for the coming school-year, this cut made it necessary to reduce teachers' salaries by 50 per cent. In the event that the abated appropriation is restored, salaries will returned to their previous level, but will be subjected to a voluntary 10 per cent cut which teachers voted themselves. 5 LYNCHINGS IN FIRST 6 MONTHS 5 LYNCHINGS IN FIRST 6 MONTHS Tuskegee Records Reveal 3 Negroes and 2 Whties Killed by Mobs According to records compiled at Tuskegee there were five lynchings in the first six months of 1932. This number is the same as the number, five, for the first six months of 1931. In 1922, that is ten years ago, there were 30 persons lynched in the first six months of that year. During the first six months of 1932, there were 13 instances in which officers of the law prevented lynchings. Of these two were in Northern and Western States and eleven in Southern States. In nine of the instances the prisoners were removed or the guards augmented; in the four other instances force was used to repel the would-be lynchers; thus a total of 18 persons, 5 whites and 13 Negroes, were saved from death at the hands of mobs. Of the persons lynched two were white and three were Negroes. The offenses charged were attempted rape, 1; rape, 1; murder, 1; threatening men, 1; dynamiting a store, 1. The States in which lynchings occurred and the number in each State are as follows: Florida, 1; Kansas, 1; Kentucky, 1; Ohio, 1; Texas, 1. Federal Money Pays South Carolina "Rebel" Veterans Pensions COLUMBIA, S. C.—(CNS)—South Carolina's "rebels," who fought bitterly against the Federal Government and the Union of the States, received $341,000 on June 30 from the treasury of the government which they risked Negro Lobby Organized (CNS)—The Better Citizens' Bureau, a potential Negro lobby and information bureau, has been organized here with offices at 907 UStreet, northwest. Dr. W. H. Jernagin, president, of the National Baptist Sunday School Congress and Baptist Young People's Union, is president of the organization. He served as delegate from the District of Columbia to the Republican National Convention in Chicago. The other officers are Morris Lewis, secretary to Representative Oscar DePrist, vice-president and treasurer; Roy A. Ellis, executive secretary; J. C. Olden, corresponding secretary; and J. C. Waters, legal adviser. The Bureau proposes to see to it that the Negro's legislative needs and desires are known in the proper places at the proper time. The Better Citizens' Bureau has already appeared before Congressional Committees in the interest of government aid for the unemployed, equalization of labor conditions and wages on public works. It is now interested in legislation before Congress in the matter of high rents in the District of Columbia. Negro Policeman Is * Omaha's Hero for Day OMAHA, Neb. (ANP)—After he had emptied his gun at bandits in a filling station battle and had been wounded, Detective Sergeant Birch, last Saturday, rushed one of the bandits who was about to shoot his partner, Leroy Jones, and struck him over the head with the butt of his empty revolver, to capture him. The bravery of the two colored policemen drew the following editorial comment in the Evening World Herald: "If it had happened in wartime, Detective Sergeant William E. Birch would have received the croz de guerre, possibly the Congressional medal of honor. "Birch and Detective Sergeant Leroy Jones were assigned the other night to clean out a nest as dangerous as an enemy machine gun nest in wartime. "Bandits had repeatedly robbed a filling station, where a little over a year ago a policeman was slain by other bandits. Birch and Jones their lives to split. More than one tenth of the $3,400,000 borrowed by the State of South Carolina through a State bank from the Reconstruction Finance Corporation, was used by the State in paying off fifty per cent of the pensions of veterans and the widows of veterans who fought in the War of the Rebellion against the Federal Government. Pensions for Rebel veterans is paid out of State funds. This year, however, South Carolina was not able to bear 50 per cent of her responsibility to her confederate veterans, until the loan was made to the State from Government funds. Never before have confederate soldiers been paid with money from the United States Treasury for their efforts against the Union. KILLERS TAKE FEARFUL TOLL OF NEGRO LIFE Atlanta Survey For 1931 Shows 76 Slain By Negroes Twenty By Whites ATLANTA, Ga., May 30.—During 1931 eighty Negro killers in Atlanta slew seventy-six Negroes and four whites and constituted 73 per cent of the 109 killers identified. Four-fifths of the Negro homicide victims were slain by members of their own race. These are the startling facts revealed by an exhaustive study of the city's homicide record for 1931 made for the Commission on Interracial Cooperation by the Atlanta School of Social Work, and given to the Negro press by the former organization. An analysis of this record, which gives Atlanta one of the highest homicide rates in the entire country, reveals the following facts: Total number of victims 128, of whom 106 were Negroes and 22 whites. Twenty-two of the Negro victims were women. Known killers 109, of whom 80 were colored and 29 white. Of the Negro killers 14 were women. Negroes killed by Negroes 76. Negroes killed by civilian whites 9. Negroes killed by police 11. Whites killed by Negroes 4. Whites killed by whites 9. Whites killed by police 1. Killers unidentified 19. These figures give the following percentage: Negro victims 83 per cent of total; white victims, 17 per cent. Negro slayers, 73.4 per cent of total; white slayers, 26.6 per cent. Of the 96 Negro victims whose slayers were identified, 79 per cent were killed by Negroes, or four in every five, 9.4 per cent by civilian whites, and 11.4 per cent by police. Commenting editorially on this record the Atlanta World, Negro daily paper, says: "These figures drive home the fact that, no matter how inhuman and barbaric some whites may be in their treatment of the darker Americans, no matter what the number of lynchings during a year, the Negro's chief source of danger is from members of his own race."

Published accounts of the screen's lack of acting talent have sent dozens of hopeful applicants for fame and fortune toward the film studios, usually with mournful results. If A. B. Comathiere, veteran character, is to be believed, the Southland Pictures scouts could do nothing better than make a tour of the country, checking up on the young actors and actresses, who are now appearing in amateur stock companies. Comathevie gives an excellent performance as Emperor, in "The Black King," a new starring picture for the Southland Pictures, which is now released to play this city soon. He is one of the veterans of the stage and screen, having directed and acted in dozens of productions. Before he began his film career, Comathevie played many roles behind the footlights, on Broadway and in stock companies throughout the country. In "The Black King" nearly all of the leading members of the cast have played with some of the outstanding Broadway productions. Vivian Baber, who is featured with Mr. Comathiere, was starred in the road company of "Harlem" and also was starred in John Golden's "Savage Rhythm." Dan Michael's first vice "Emperor" is a well known trooper as Michaels and Michael's also with Kilpatrick's Minstrels. Mike Jackson, second vice "Emperor," will be remembered with Mae West's "Wicked Age" and Lorenza Tucker was featured with "Ham's Daughter" and Mae West's "The Constant Sinner." A.B. Comathiere gives a beautiful portrait of a solely insured "Emperor" in "The Black King," recommended as especially fine entertainment. Raphael Theatre 1409 NINTH ST., N.W.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Ethyl Wise, coloratura soprano of Washington, D.C., delighted her audience at A. and T. College Summer School for more than an hour at the noon chapel hour, Monday. Miss Wise, a graduate of Howard University June class, is a pupil of Director Lulu . Childers. The singer, endowed with a voice of simple beauty and sweetness, sang with ease and richness of tone.

Other numbers on the program were "As When a Dove" from Handel; "In Lisbesbust" by List; "Das Veilchen" by Mozart; "The Passionate Shephard in his Love" by Goldmark; "A Song of the Open" by La Forge; and "Cradle Song" by De Koven, and a group of Negro spirituals arranged by J. Rosamond Johnson. She was assisted at the piano by Naomi Martin, pupil of Professor Roy W. Tibbs, and J. Richmond Johnson, violinist, pupil of Louis Vaughn Jones. STEPIN' FETCHIT A MARVELOUS GUY STEPIN' FETCHIT A MARVELOUS GUY By Johnnie Williams I've met, good guys, fine guys, regular guys, and irregular guys; but I've never before met a guy like "Stepin' Fetchit." He is a marvelous guy. I made an appointment with him by telephone, and was instructed to await his egress at the stage door of the Lincoln Theatre—which I did. After about ten minutes of waiting he appeared. A gay, amiable fellow with an effulgence of elan and youthful jocularity. He came straight toward me with an out-stretched hand which I readily if not eagerly clasped. For the animatig splendor of his glowing personality was persistently inviting. And I felt as if he were an old friend whom I had not seen in years. "Come," he said, "we shall (no), I believe his verb was 'will)' talk, but not here. Let's go to my place, i.e., where he is stopping. Once inside his apartment I got a closer view of this man, and the impression was more than I had ever anticipated. He is tall, erect, dignified (except when he is under the electrifying spell of artistic inclinations) and with a fine face whose ever-changing expressions tell a story of his soul. "Your native home," please, I finally jerked out, for I was just coming back to earth, having been swept, for a few minutes, into the incomprehensible realm of Morpheus. "Key West, Florida. My parents were born in Jamaica and I'm thirty years old. Have one child,, a boy, and my wife and I are on good terms." He rattled all this seemingly on one breath. "Any more questions?" "Why—er, yes, I mean—won't you tell me something about yourself?" Yeah, sure; anything except my real name!" Then he began to talk. I shall not attempt to quote this eccentric piece of humanity of whom we feel so inscrutably proud. But, instead, I shall, if I'm capable, try to describe him, his mien, his thoughts as I gathered them from his remarks. And you my reader, may draw your own conclusions. In the first instance, he is insanely sincere in his work as an actor. Secondly, he is not merely an actor but an artist. His interest in his work is so magnificently prodigious that when he discusses acting, song-writing, and issues confronting his people as a race, he doesn't just talk, he raves. He gesticulates, dramatically, stands on his toes, walks up and down the floor, and sets his jaws as if struggling, planning, and no doubt praying to retain life—itself before man, in his cruel rashness, tears it away from him. He showed me songs which he had written. He had his pianist play while he sang for my approval his latest opera hit, called "All That Goes Up Must Comes Down." "In those songs," he said, handing me a miniature folio, "is a part of my soul." And admittedly, it is. But I, feeble craftman of the pen, am incapable of describing the beauty, the pathos, the sacred sweetness of the music. He showed me newspaper clippings in which he was styled as being a play-boy, toying with the hearts of silly maidens a diletante of the stage and screen. "I've nothing to say about those," he said as I scanned them. "My wife and I are on good terms, I've told you." And my admiration for him increased because of this standing which he did not offer an appology, nor unnecessary subterfuges for his conduct. A mark of individuality that is decidedly rare especially among our "Do-rights." Rarely do we have an actor who is interested in any other person besides the one whom he or she sees in a mirror, but Stepin' Fetchit is different. He is interested racially, interracially, and internationally. Through the media of his professions he is trying to do his bit to paralyzize the petty prejudices which have ever wrought have with interracial progress. He is well-read, well-versed, and with an appreciable sense of culture. Stepin' Fetchit is truly a marvelous guy. Dear Mr. Chols, does that pretty yellow Auburn that sits at Eleventh and U streets belong to Fess Daniels? I refuse to answer that question because you only ask it because that car is yellow.

COLLIER, JR. in "The Silent Witness" Wednesday July 13 LEON JANNEY in "Police Court" Thursday and Friday July 14-15 KEN MAYNARD in "Sunset Trail" 1st Chapter—"AIR MAIL MYSTERY" GIRL WRITES NEGRO OPERETTA, BLEDSOE TO SING Cleveland, O., July 8.—(By Shirley Graham, Composer of first Negro opera, "Tom-Tom", which shortly will be given its world premiere in Cleveland's civic stadium for The Associated Negro Press—I am the happiest girl of my race, and perhaps the most surprised, for shortly I am to see performed the opera which has been the dream of my childhood, an opera by a Negro and with an all-Negro cast, telling the story of Africans and tracing their life and music. Critics already have been kind enough to say that my opera, "Tom-Tom", which will be given its world premiere in Cleveland's festival of grand opera at the city's stadium, June 29 to July 6, will be to the grand opera stage what "Green Pastures" has been to the legitimate stage. That, of course, remains to be seen. To me African life and music always has been symbolized by the tom-tom. Even today the African's most cherished possession is his tom-tom, being handed down from generation to generation. And so, when I started out to compose an opera about Negroes, it was natural that I should choose to write music about this symbolic instrument. Tom-Tom Music The music of the tom-tom, on which you can really play a scale if you are clever enough, has haunted me since the days when with my father, a methodist minister whose pastorates have been located all over the South, I used to lead the church choirs. As a little girl my brother brought me from Africa a tom-tom made from a warrior's foot but as the history of this instrument was a bit too gruesome I returned it. The story of my opera grew along with the music as I traced the development of the tom-tom notes from the African jungles down to the drum of the Harlem night club. It starts in African before 1619 with hunting scenes, purification and sacrificial scenes which have never before been enacted on any stage of the world. It shows the African being taken from his native jungle and sold into slavery. It shows the Negro in slavery and carries him down to the present day, always with the notes of the tom-tom underlying his life. The music starts with the single beat of a tom-tom and ends with a single beat from the wierd chants of the jungle, sung in African, down to the "blues" of a Harlem cabaret. Notable Cast I am indeed happy that for my "Voodoo-Man", one of the principal characters, the producers have chosen Jules Bledsoe, great Negro haritone of "Show-Boat", "Emperor Jones", and other shows. Equally as pleasing are the others, Charlotte Murray, Luther King, Lillian Cowan, Mary Branch, and Augustus Grist, in the cast. I personally am directing a great Negro chorus of men and women, a group of nearly 200 voices. In all, there will be nearly 1,000 in the production here and in New York when it is presented this fall in Madison Square Garden. Every detail of the productions will be authentic as the costumes and special properties are being designed by Negro artists and for the jungle scenes in African missionary. I. Chiakazia Steady, has been secured to co-operate with the famous Dr. Ernest Lert, staging expert and co-director of the Cleveland season. The story of my own life has been one of much travel as the V GRETO GARBO AT BOOKER T. Greta Garbo, who may always be relied upon for something different, appears as a platinum-blonde cafe singer in her latest screen characterization as Zara in "As You Desire Me." The new Garbo picture, which will open at the Booker T. Theatre on Friday, July 8, is a filmization of the New York dramatic hit by the noted Italian playwright, Luigi Pirandello, with dialogue continuity by Gene Markey, George Fitzmaurice, who recently scored with his production of Mita Hari, again directed Miss Garbo in "As You Desire Me." The star is supported by Melvyn Douglass, who made his film debut opposite Gloria Swanson in "Tonight or Never," the celebrated character actor, Erich Von Stroheim, Owen Moore, Hedda Hopper, and Roland Varno. In "As You Desire Me," Miss Garbo enacts the role of a temperamental Budapest cafe entertainer who is mistaken by an Italian nobleman for the wife whom he thought to have been killed by invaders during the World War. In order to escape the demands of a ruthless novelist who has a hypnotic influence over her, Garbo resolves to enact the bluff of the nobleman's wife, a game which proves to be as dangerous as it is diverting. The novelist stops at nothing in his attempt to bring the erstwhile cabinet singer back into his and she is therefore forced to which her wits against his in order to defend her masqueurade. The result is said to be the most adventurous, intriguing and romantic drama in which the fascinating Swedish actress has yet been seen. daughter of a minister. Besides the many years in the South, I have lived in the Mid-west and on the West Coast. I have attended Howard university and at present am doing work at Oberlin college, Oberlin, Ohio. My uncle is Bishop Sampson W. Brooks. Shortly I am going to Africa and I trust there I will be able to work on another opera with the music of the jungle at first hand.

"The Negro must learn to use the ballot box to get his rights. If I lived in Elizabeth City I would organize my race block by block and put them on the registration books. I would register 2,000 to 2,500 Negro voters in Elizabeth City. And I wouldn't commit them to either the Republican party or the Democratic party. Between a Southern Negro-hating Democrat and a Lily White Southern Republican I would as a rule choose the Democrat. Don't sen votes "I wouldn't attempt to elect members of my own race to office; I would throw the strength of my race to the best white men regardless of their party label. When the best white people are convinced that you are for them and when you have won their confidence and respect by demonstrating your ability to think right and vote right, you are in position to command their co-operation. "More hurtful to the Negro race than a hostile white man is the shiftless Negro who sells his vote. The Negro who sells his vote is not entitled to any of the benefits of government. "And let me admonish you to pay your poll tax. A man who doesn't help to defray the cost of government he lives under should have no voice in that government."

The efforts of the attorneys representing the estate have been unable to collect as the insurance company claims that the policy lapsed on January 19, three months before Mrs. Manigaulte's death.

WHITE ON POWDER DEPRESSION HALTS NEGRO TEACHERS' SALARY FIGHT DEPRESSION HALTS NEGRO TEACHERS' SALARY FIGHT RICHMOND, Va. (CNS)—The depression has caused a temporary halt in the fight of the salary committee of the Buckingham County Colored Teachers' Association for an increase in salary of the Negro teachers of Virginia. Thomas L. Dabney, chairman of the committee, states however that the committee will not abandon its efforts for an eventual increase. A petition drafted some months ago and signed by more than 2,000 teachers will not be presented to State educational authorities until the time is more favorable for salary increases. The movement began in Buckingham County in March, 1931. The original plan sponsored by the County Colored Teachers' Association was to get the Buckingham County school board to set up a systematic salary scale for Negro teachers with gradual increases instead of leaving the scale of pay to the discretion of the clerk of the board as has been the custom heretofore. When it was discovered that county boards were inclined to shift the responsibility for salary arrangement for Negro teachers on the State board of education, the Buckingham County Colored Teachers' Association decided to make the movement Statewide, and to include urban as well as rural teachers in its efforts. Answer to the Attack Of J. C. Wright Upon Woodlawn Cemetery Dear Editor: Starting at the entrance of the cemetery which belongs to the Government will not be improved until the road is widened. A new office has been built and the road to the entrance widened sixty feet. A new gate way is being built, which will be as pretty as any in the city. The writer also spoke of the records. The records are one thing we do not allow anyone to criticize unless they can prove the statement. The records are inspected twice a year by the Health Department and is on record as one of the best kept in the District of Columbia. There isn't a body in the cemetery which can not be found in less than five minutes. The lots in the cemetery are deeded to the owners and if they were cleaned up, the bushes cut and put in shape the cemetery would look much better. When the cemetery came under new management a few years ago the funerals had to be met at the gate and carried up with a horse. Since that time over two thousand feet of road has been made. Things are being done to improve the cemetery and with the cooperation of those who are interested in the cemetery, not those who knock, the cemetery will be as pretty as any other.

When the police came they found the apartment in bloody confusion. The young couple had evidently fought in every corner of the apartment before the young wife broke out into the hall where she collapsed. Bohannon was arrested and charged with being disorderly in house and carrying a dangerous and deadly weapon, the weapon being described on the records at the Tenth Precinct as a "tear gas gun," which Bohannon carries for protection in his coat pocket. He was released on $600 bond. By the time officers came Bohannon's wrist was bleeding so badly that it was necessary for him to be treated at Freedmen's Hospital before he was taken to the police station. He was treated by Dr. Jas, E. Walker. Mrs. Bohannon refused hospitalization and was treated by her own physician, Dr. Dorothy Boulding-Ferrebee; but was admitted to Freedmen's Saturday morning, where she was improving Wednesday.

AUTOMAC TELEPHONE CO. (SYSTEM) MEtropolitan 9900 Congressman Celler Offers Bill To Erect Monument BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL A MONUMENT TO A GREAT STATESMAN, FRED DOUGLASS A MONUMENT TO A GREAT STATESMAN, FRED DOUGLASS Congressman Celler of New York Introduces Bill To Erect Monument Representative Emanuel Celler, of the 10th New York District, introduced in Congress on July 1, a bill to erect a monument to Frederick Dourlask. The bill follows; "I have this day introduced in the House a Resolution (H.J.R.) calling for the erection in the National Capital of a memorial to Frederick Douglass, the fugitive slave whose name will ever survive as one of America's most eloquent orators as well as one of the most profound thinkers of his time. "The life of Frederick Douglass epitomized the struggle of the Negro race in its rise from the abysmal depths of slavery. He saw the slaves, including himself, emancipated; but he realized that freedom brought duties and responsibilities, and created expectations which must needs be fulfilled. He taught the colored people that they must maintain a nigh state in the Republic and could not be mere driftwood in a stream. He fought and bled to achieve for his people equality of opportunity in industry and education. He knew that they had entered the portals of freedom with the greatest handicaps—without money, without friends, without shelter, and without food. The land which they had watered with their tears, enriched with their blood, and tilled with their hard hands was owned by those who did not wish them well. They were forced to leave their familiar quarters to seek shelter and food elsewhere. The marvel i. not so much that the race made progress, but that it was not exterminated. "But much of the progress made was due to the influence and efforts of Frederick Douglass. He did more for the colored people in America than anyone else of his own race. He was a born orator and swayed thousands to espouse the cause of the colored race. With no education except that which he snatched as a slave beside candlelight, he became most proficient in the study of rhetoric, logic, politics and history. Few men have equalled him in his power over an audience. A rugged honesty and fine sincerity of purpose weaved its way through all his words and deeds. His was a fearless courage that achieved for him honor and distinction. "He was the trusted confidence of Lincoln and Grant and many other statesmen. What George Washington was in the darkest hours of American independence, what Abraham Lincoln was to this country in its hours of travail, what General Grant was in the wilderness, 'fighting it out along that line if, it took all summer', what Toussaint L'Cventure was to the Black Republic of Haiti when the armies of Napoleon were encamped about it, attempting its re HOPWOODS LURNITURE Cor. 8th & K Sts., N.W. 815 H St., N.E.

Cites War Records "In the Revolutionary War the Negro fought for us and with us. In the War of 1512, Jackson at New Orleans found their assistance necessary in the defense against England. In the Civil War when Lincoln called upon them for assistance they responded gallantly; nor were they found wanting in the Spanish-American or the World War. Many of the colored troops went through the valley of the shadow 'to keep the world safe for democracy. Should not our men in public life, therefore, have a care lest by forcing the colored race outside the law they destroy that love of country which is so needful for a nation's defense in the day of trouble. "Such a monument would serve to remind this nation of its responsibilities to the colored race, upon whom it foisted the bondage of slavery, and to whom it should now lend a helping hand. Instead of prescription, there should be sympathy; instead of resentment there should be charity. The way of the colored people should not be disputed at every turn of the road. Unfortunately for the colored man, if he comes in rags and wretchedness, he meets the public demand for a Negro. He may not provokes anger, but he provokes derision. But let him presume to be a gentleman and a scholar, he is then naturally out of place; he excites resentment, he calls forth stern and bitter opposition. $N_0$ matter what his ability and talents may be, the bar sinister is upon him. All this should not be. We are prone to judge the colored race by the exemplification of those who stray from the paths of righteousness; we should judge them as well by the flower of the flock, by their great and good men. "A monument to the memory of Douglass has been erected at Rochester, New York, where he is buried, but he should be enshrined at the national capital, where he lived for so many years as the 'Sage of Anacostia.' Such a memorial should lead the youth of the land both near and far, to study the character of this great man and draw from it lessons urging them on to higher and more noble effort. "It is hoped that a committee of representative citizenry will be formed to raise the necessary funds for this project." ASBURY LEWIS KILLED (Continued from page 1) appeared at the hearing with a black and bruised face and one eye partly closed as a result of a blow from a heavy instrument. Both Well Known Both men are well known in sporting circles. Lewis is said to have a reputation as a fighter. Several witnesses said Lewis had threatened them during gambling games. James Floyd, owner of the barber shop, over which the fight took place, said at one time Lewis had pulled him in the street and took some money from him. According to the statement given police by Childers the two men were engaged in the poker game, when Childers won the pot and took up the money. Lewis objected and struck Childers a heavy blow across the face, knocking the man down the flight of steps. In falling Childers said his gun, which was in a holster around his waist, went off. Childers said he was stunned from the fall, and on gaining his feet Lewis was coming down the steps towards him. He said he reached for his revolver and fired once. Lewis stumbled and fell. Childers then went to a physician, where he had his face treated, and later gave himself up to police at No. 2 Precinct. Childers stated that he has known Lewis for a period of two years and was afraid of the man. He said earlier in the day Lewis sent to his home at 718 Rhode Island avenue, northwest, for $5 which Lewis claimed Childers owed him for moving. Childers said he did not pay the bill because Lewis was indebted to him for $75. As the dead man had a reputation as a fighter, Childers said he carried the gun for protection. On entering the room Saturday evening he found Lewis and Floyd, the barber, in a poker game. In a short while Floyd dropped out and Lewis and Childers began to play. It was during the argument over the bet that Lewis struck Childers. Marbury Coleman and Mendell Pannell took the injured man to the hospital, where Dr. Ethel Sutton pronounced him dead Reputation as Fighter Clarence Sutton, a waiter, said at one time Lewis attempted to take some money from him. James C. Belton, 605 O street, northwest, a barber, said he rented the upstairs room and was on the verge of moving when the fight occurred. Lewis was bringing in the furniture when he stopped to take part in the game. Childers was represented by Attorneys McComas Hawken and George Havell.

More than half of the bathers at Buckroe Beach rushed over to Bay Shore, and many dived and drew drags in the attempt to locate the body.

Gandy of Virginia State College will sail for Europe on July 30 to make an extended tour of important countries among which are England, Scotland, Holland, Belgium, Germany, France, Switzerland, and Italy. This voyage is made possible by funds contributed by graduates of the college, undergraduates, and the teachers of the State, who have chosen this means of expressing appreciation for Dr. Gandy's thirty four years of tireless and meritorious service to the college, to the state, and to the nation. A Mississippian by birth, President Ganny obtained his early education in the public schools of that state and at Jackson College, Jackson, Miss., being graduated from the Normal School of that institution in 1891. He then attended Oberlin College for a year, but later withdrew from that institution to enter Fisk University. From this institution he received the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Dr. Gandy also holds the degree of Master of Arts from Fisk and was honored with the degree of Doctor of Pedagogy by Morgan. In 1823 he won the Harmon Award for his accomplishments in the field of education: Mr. Gandy found employment after graduation as professor of Latin and Green at the Virginia Normal and Collegiate Institute, as it was then called. He taught these languages for three years. At the end of this period, the State having abandoned the college work at the Institute, Mr. Gandy was elected professor of education. He held this position from 1902 to 1914, at which time he was elected president of the institute.

Washingtonians Desert City For Beach Resorts; Beach Party Here By CAPITOLA Independence Day found Washingtonians seeking the seashores and beach resorts in an effort to escape from the sweltering heat which had depressed the Capital City for more than a week. Highland Beach and Colton drew their usual crowds of pleasure seekers, while Buckroe Beach and Atlantic City, always popular with Washingtonians on "long" week-ends, attracted a number of gay parties. So general was the exodus that the town was actually deserted. Practically everyone who has a summer home had it filled over the week-end with guests, many of them charming and interesting visitors from other cities. Two new beaches this year bidding for a share of Washingtonians are Carr's Beach and Sparrow's Beach. But speaking of the heat of last week brings to mind the two delightful parties given by thoughtful hostesses who planned their parties to provide their guests with appropriate relaxation for torrid weather. MISS TURNER'S BEACH PARTY The larger of these two parties was the unique swimming and dancing party given by Miss Vallerie Turner, Thursday night. This young hostess, whose charmingly different parties have won for her an enviable reputation as a successful hostess, mindful of the intense heat with which Washington always suffers during June's last days, rented the swimming pool and dance pavilion at Suburbia Gardens, and gave a beach party for four hundred guests, which was one of the most delightful affairs of the entire season. The guests, attired in smart and striking beach and sport costumes lounged and chatted on the "beach" and watched their more active friends swim and cavort in gay abandon in the beautiful lighted pool, or joined the dancers on the pavilion floor. Many who had not planned to swim could not resist the temptation of a dip in the cool blue water, and were provided with suits by their hostess, who had anticipated such an emergency and was prepared to supply suits in any size to her guests. The party began promptly at midnight, Miss Turner receiving her guests at the gate of the amusement park, wearing interesting beach costume in shades of red topped by a smart sombrero. The guests left at two thirty. Among the guests were a large group of Baltimoreans, including Mr. and Mrs. Charles Shipley, Dr. and Mrs. Randolph Waters, Mr. and Mrs. Linwood Koger, Mr. and Mrs. N. H. Pollard, Dr. and Mrs. Jay G. McRae, Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Smalls, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Kennard, Dr. and Mrs. Basil Weaver, Mr. and Mrs. Lockerman, Mr. and Mrs. Chambers, Mrs. Fannie Howard, Misses Evelyn Shepard and Anna Coulson, Dr. Jamse A.

OPEQUON AND NOT OCCAQUAN I am calling your attention to a mistake in the article, "Dinner and Porch Party," page five, society news of July 1, 1932. The place was "Token Farm, Pequon, Va," and not "Tokes Farm, Occaquan, Va," as published. The item should have been as follows: "A delightful outing, dinner and porch party was given Sunday at Token Farm, Pequon, Va. After dinner the guests availed themselves of the beauties and comforts of the farm. They were also guests of Mr. and Mrs. Nathan Hall at Middleburg, Va., where they served on their snacious lawn.

Washington "A 100% Wash University graduate was to both diagnose and cure the lills of society—whether economic or spiritual. He made a plea that American universities, American government, and American industry should cease to draw "the color line" against or upon Negroes. Reference was also made to the various race elements of America which feel the tinge of humiliation, the inconvenience and discomfiture because of race or nationality. Care seemed to have been manifested by him not to appear selfish or bitter, for not once did he make direct reference, either by direct word or by influence, to the disadvantages suffered by the Jewish people on account of prejudice. He twice spoke of the Negro people as a "persecuted people," and urged that they, too, be included in the great bond of human Brotherhood to which they, "the persecuted Negroes," by any and all legitimate standards were most eminently entitled on par with all others.

SCHOOL SANATORIUM Tubercular Children of The District To Have Modern School And Facilities What Congressman Ernest Gibson, of Vermont, called "the realization of a beautiful dream here on this Maryland hilltop" was the formal breaking of ground for the construction of the Children's Tuberculosis Sanatorium on June 30, in the presence of a representative group of Washington's officials and social workers. That remark came after the first shovel of earth had lifted by Mrs. Ernest R. Grant, president of the Tuberculosis Association, who as chairman of the Tuberculous Children's Sanatorium Committee has had much to do with the public health project authorized by Congress. Before taking up the shovel, Mrs. Grant told of her great joy in this happy outcome and thanked all of those who had worked with her for it. Mr. Gibson spoke of the member who had introduced the first bill in the House to make the children's sanatorium possible, but gave credit to the Monday Evening Club as the organization which brought the Sanatorium Committee into existence, recalling the meeting of that club which he had addressed several years ago. He congratulated the people of Washington on this and other evidences of progress, but said that no material advance would be worth anything unless matured by such splendid human ideals as are represented in this institution for the proper care and protection of children. Liefur Magnusson, president of the Monday Evening Club, as the chairman of the occasion, made an eloquent address in which he asserted that "the work started here will mean more to Washington than the addition of another equestrian statue, or tomb, or monumental building." He added that monuments are just the memories of a deed past but that here the task is to "Implant new hopes, to start new growths, to raise new lives." He sketched the history of the movement to obtain a children's sanatorium over a period of thirteen years and paid a high tribute to Mrs. Grant for her untiring leadership in that effort and all the others who had worked with her to that end, among whom he mentioned with great praise Senator Arthur Capper, who as chairman of the District Committee of the Senate had done so much to push the sanatorium measure to final enactment. He read a letter from Senator Capper to Mrs. Grant regretting his inability because of urgent official duties to be present and expressing his great satisfaction in the starting of work on the building. Reichlederfer Speaks President, Reichlederfer, of the Board of Commissioners, also made a brief address, referring to the rocky road that the undertaking had encountered due to unexpected difficulties but voicing his pleasure at the "happy outcome." He spoke of the larger and perhaps more ideal structure at first visualized but for which, not sufficient funds were available at the time and said that it was far better to go ahead with this good start, though not ideal, than to wait for the larger amount of money several years. He believed that in future they would be able to get the necessary funds for needed extensions. He asked all to join in congratulations on the fine beginning here made. D. J. Winthrop Peabody, superintendent of the Tuberculosis Hospital, speaking as the representative of the National Tuberculosis Association, of which he is a director, brought the hearty congratulations of the national body to the District of Columbia on this addition to its facilities for the fight against tuberculosis. Rev. D. E. Wiseman, the oldest living charter member of the board of the Tuberculosis Association, delivered the concluding prayer. Miss Dorothy Kline, of Glendale, Md., entertained the audience with numbers on her harmonica. Constructor McCormick in charge of the construction, who was on hand with his staff of workers and a steam shovel in position to start work, said that he expected to have the sanatorium completed in ten months. Among those who came to take part in or to witness the ceremony were Health Officer Wm. C. Fowler, Dr. Joseph A. Murphy, chief medical examiner of the public schools; Dr. James G. Cumming, of the Health Department; Dr. Percy Hickling, alienist of the District Government; Walter S. Ufford, general secretary of the Associated Charities; Dr. Viola Russell Anderson, executive secretary of the Tuberculosis Association; Mr. and Mrs. Flwood Street; Mrs. Agnes H.

DEL MONTE PEACHES 2 BIG CANS 29c LOWEST PRICE IN YEARS Woman Shows How To Do Business Despite Hard Times DETROIT, Mich. (ANP)—Mrs. H. S. Dunbar, wife of the former secretary of the Detroit, Y.M.C.A., has launched a business right within the confines of her home which despite the depression has grown so rapidly that she now has six assistants. Looking about for an activity to use her surplus time, since her family had grown beyond the need of her immediate attention, Mrs. Dunbar decided to go into the manufacturing of light wear for women. She began to make smocks, light coats and numerous tailored articles for women of the rather exclusive district in which she lived. She was able to price them low because of the present low costs of material, and her ability to operate under a slender over-head. The name of her products grew. Her clientele, practically all white, began to crowd—the room she set aside in her home until she had to add additional room. Mrs. Annie M. Malone, head of Poro College, a recent visitor in her shop, praised her spirit and foresight enthusiastically. Snatches Girl's Purse After Shooting Her Rose Theresa.

Young Negro Republicans Make First Campaign Gift To G. O. P. (CNS)—A group of young colored Republicans representing ten States made the first campaign contribution since the selection of Hoover and Curtis as party nominees last Monday when the group made formal presentation of a check for $85 to Everett Sanders, newly chosen chairman of the Republican National Committee. John P. Davis, of Cambridge, Mass., a speaker at the Young Republican conference, held here a year ago, was spokesman for the delegation. The group which made the contribution to the Republican coffers was composed entirely of young men and women from various States, who have shown an interest in Republican politics. Present at the presentation were Mrs. Ellis A. Yost, chairman of the Women's Division of the Republican National Committee; Robert H. Lucas, executive director; and Harry Hayden, secretary of the Young Republican Conference. The spokesman of the group pledged to Mr. Sanders the support of young Negro Republicans in working for the party candidates. He stated in part: "As young Republican voters, we are committed to the proposition that we ought to support our party with our contributions as well as our time and energy; it is only in this way that we believe, the Negro as a particular group may achieve permanent self-respect in the field of politics." Mr. Sanders, in accepting the contribution, expressed his gratification at the timeliness with which young Negro voters had offered their aid to the Republicans and assured them of his kindly interest in their behalf. A group picture with Mr. Sanders and other Republican leaders was taken following the presentation. In the group were Mrs. Sara Pelham Speaks of New York, vicechairman of the First Voters group of the Colored Division in the 1928 campaign; Lucas Howard, son of the National Committeeman from Mississippi; Henry Lincoln, Johnson, Jr., son of the former National Committeeman from Georgia; Hyman Y. Chase, president of the National Negro College League Republican Club; Alice Bell, of the District of Columbia; G. E. Mills, W. C. Curtis, Wallace Wormley, Dutton Ferguson and others. The States represented by contributors to the donation were Illinois, New York, West Virginia, Massachusetts, Virginia, District of Columbia, Mississippi, New Jersey, Indiana and South Carolina. Following the presentation it was announced by the delegation that immediate organization of young Negro Republican units would be had in every large city where there was a sizeable Negro population.

Chicage, New York, Los Angeles pace ae SU Se eas ee FRIDAY, JULY 8, 1932 RENTS ARE TOO HIGH Always alert to advance and protect the interest'of our readers, the WASHINGTON TRIBUNE in’ an issue some weeks ago called attention-to. the fact that notwithstanding all other of the necessities of trfe-had dropped in cost to meet the drop in wages and employment—rents have not. Closely behind our editorial came’ a ‘movement by one or more of the dailies. advocating the revival.ot the. rent commission to cor- rect this condition. Sonar then gave serious considera- tion, as a result of which facts and’ arguments flowed in from both sides, Real'zstate barons deny the fact that rents are too high. ~ On the other ‘hand, on the floor of the Senate, Senator Burton A. Wheeler (Dem.) of Montana, said, “While other prices have fallen, the cost of housing has not. It must come down immediately.” Senator Wheeler further stated: “We talk about racketeering by bootleggers and others throughout the country. But right under the shadow of the dome.of the Capitol a more evil form of racketeering has been engaged in by some real éstate promoters. Some: of them may not be as culpable as Pitts but they are unques- tionably guilty.” 5. The TRIBUNE and its readers know that apartments. in this city advance the rent on our tenants the very day the others move out. Our people have therefore been the great- est Sufferers of this form of racketeering, The TRIBUNE urges all its readers to immediately give us any facts as to these increased rents—from one race to another—to keep.in the fight for a general rent reduction in this city. Our people are the poorest paid workers and the highest paying renters. RENTS ARE TOO HIGH. -Any reduction to be enforced by law should be based-on: the rents formerly charged. to whites and not on the inereased rents charged our people. Any landlord could well afford a 20 per cent cut on this col- ored tenant after he has just raised the rent formerly charged whites 30 per cent and more. These high rents to our people necessitate crowding in homes, creating a very unhealthy. condition under which to live, cuts down the buying power for ‘the‘comforts and necessities of life, therefore |impeding the return of business prosperity. REPUBLICANS vs. DEMOCRATS presidential election year of 1932, f “between the Devil and the deep blu ring the platforms we find little, if ir planks to inspire the Negro. Th which crept into the Republican part; In this presidential election year of 1932, the Negro finds himself “between the Devil and the deep blue sea.” Considering the platforms we find little, if any ae ence in their planks to inspire the Negro. _ The Ku Klux Klan spirit which crept into the Republican party, giving it its lily white tinge is more detrimental to the Negro than the open opposition of the Southern Democrats. The seventy words in the Republican platform referring to the Negro are not worth the paper they are printed on. With President Hoover that plank is unknown. ~ The wet plank of the Democratic platform will mean re to the Negro than anything in the Republican platform. Wh the repeal of the 18th Amendment and a proper beer and liquor Jaw, placing ‘e manufacture and sale of beer and ‘whiskey under Federal control, will mean more employment, a Jarger demand for agricultural products, more revenue for the government by which these nuisance taxes can be re- pealed and will be a big factor in restoring normalcy in in- dustry and economics. Therefore, the Negro.will be greatly benefited by the return of prosperity and the repeal of the 18th Amendment. Sei the Democratic platform offers a larger hope to the legro. As to the candidates and cheir ability and willingness to perform seems to be some difference of opinion. Never has there been a Republican President who so completelly ignored the Negro as President Hoover has. If-his future is to be Judged by his past there is absolutely no hope for any recog- nition whatever. Herbert Hoover is hopeless. ; Governor Roosevelt, the Democratic candidate has little -to his credit to attract the Negro yote. While running the Navy, for Josephus Daniels in the Wilson administration, he wrote and forced the infamous Constitution for Haiti upon tue Haitians and placed the Marines in charge of Haiti where ‘the Republicans have kept the Navy in charge of this Negro republic even to this day. As Governor of New York, Franklin D. Roosevelt has given the Negro little attention, not much more than Herbert Hoover has as President. Therefore, as to candidates, the Negro is really “between the Devil and the deep blue sea.” * ‘We know that President Hoover is a toot of Wall Street and has no regard for the Negro or the poor man in particu- lar. He often prates about “equal opportunity” of Ameri- can citizens but forgets his part io play in bringing about and adjusting condi#ions conducive to assure “equal oppor- tunities.” Take the Register of tht Treasury. A Negro ‘held that position under several Republican Presidents and when Woodrow Wilson became President he carried out the pi dent by naming A. E. Patterson, a Negro of Chicago, for The place. Mr. Patterson saw fit to decline and there has not been a Negro named by a single Republican President for Register of the Treasury since. Have they lacked the cour- age? Why has President Hoover not demonstrated his oft repeated “equal opportunity” statement by naming a Ne! for Register of the ‘Treasury? fe = Why has President Hoover permitted the dismountig _and destruction of the four Negro reviments in the Army, two of Cavalry and two of Infantry? Is that “equal oppor- tunity?” Is it “equal opportunity” to segregate Negro Gold Star Mothers and send them ta France on inferior ships to those of white mothers, Hoover permitted such cra: humilation.

When we consider that one Senator (as we ¥ead in the papers last week), because of a personal grudge, can block the D.C. bills “before Congress and prevent their passing, we realize the necessity of a local system of government headed by men who will have the interest of the com- munity ‘at heart (as much as a Politician ever does) and want to see it “grow and glow.” This can only be accomplished . when ‘the LEISURE AND THE UNEMPLOYEDD MAN The unemployed man bluffs him- self into believing that he could walk right into the job,he says he seeks and work satisfactorily after wasting all the many hours of Jelsure he hss had, altUng. op oer benches, lamenting to his fellow victims of woe the same old fairy tale, “I'm looking for a job.’ He, no dowbt, is the very man who has ermitted himself to fall far be- fow ‘the general. standard: of. ac- teptability for, any given piece. of work.

What better use can the unem- ployed. man make. of ‘his leisure than to determine to improve him self? A good way for him to begin on the self-improvement plan might be to recall some of the de- fects which his friends have point- ed out in him; the reasons his last employer gave for discharging him; the points which the other fellow had in his favor who landed the job ke tried to get; ete. Hay- ing in mind the type of job he is really seeking he could ask himself this, question: “How well would I qualify for the job if it was offered to me today?” After he has made a good self- examination, that is, located the cause of his unemployment, the next step would be to administer correction of his defects.

Negro Press) CAN THE CHURCH MAKE THE GRADE? __, Last Sunday on my way from ehureh I met a lady who had been to another place of worship, After exchanging . greetings we both found ourselves commenting upon the few persons who were present at the morning service. This very fine woman does some thinking for herself and does not hesitate to ex- press her thoughts. “You know” she said, “if the. manager of a theatre observed his audience dwindling as they are in the churches, he would begin to look around and attempt to change his brand of entertainment. In other words he would try to give the folks a better show for their money, And finally if he found himself unable to attract the. peo- ple he would. have to close his house and pat either a ‘for rent” or ‘for sale’ sign upo » it.” This. is something to which. the church would do well to direct its attention. “Small audiences are auaking ‘churches pretty expensive Propentons.- hey are not paying cir way.

LOCAL LODGE ENDORSES WASHINGTON FOR ELKS' BIG MEET BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL THEATERS SPORTS BEST NEWS OF THE NATION LOCAL L MORNING STAR LODGE ENDORSES CONVENTION Installation Of Officers Delayed Until Next Meeting; To Lay Corner Stone Sun. Morning Star Lodge of Elks, in regular meeting, Tuesday night, endorsed the coming of the Elks' National Convention to Washington in August since it could not go to Los Angeles. The lodge first redecided its action of the special meeting last week, at which time it endorsed Indianapolis, Ind., for this year by a vote of 82 to 71. The move was sponsored by Cortez Peters, financial secretary of the lodge, who made an impassioned speech in favor of endorsing the national meeting in Washington. He was assisted by J. A. G. LuValle. The installation of the officers, headed by John T. Rhines as exalted ruler, was postponed until the next regular meeting in July because invitations to affiliated organizations in the city did not reach them in time for the installation on the 5th. The exalted ruler appointed a carnival committee with John Austin as the chairman. Morning Star will lay the corner stone for the new home of Alexandria Lodge No. 45, in Alexandria, Va., Sunday. The band, under Captain Plummer, will lead the parade. The lodge held initiation exercises Saturday night, when 26 new members were inducted into Elkdom and 7 former members were reobligated making a total of 33 additions to the fast increasing roster of members. At the regular meeting, Tuesday night, four former members were reobligated and one initiated, adding five more members to the list. Prizes Awarded The country store for members who bring in new applications is proving an attractive feature. This project is fostered by Cortez Peters, the financial secretary, as incentive to secure applications. A feature of the store Tuesday night was a special gift of six neckties, in addition to the regular nine prizes. Those receiving prizes were Alvin B. Truitt, an electric lamp; Elmer Mathis, a $2.00 order for dental work; the next three prizes went to Joseph Bingham, two $2.00 laundry orders and a necktie; George B. Clark, tie and handkerchief set; A. Long, an Elk tie and handkerchief set; J. A. G. LuValle, a crate of soft drinks; and Edward J. Thomas, three cans of beans and can opener. The six ties went to John T. Rhines, exalted ruler; M. C. Jones, Leroy Mills, Ollie Allen, John Lawson, recording secretary and P. H. Mobley. Clarence Bowen, who has been confined to Walter Reed Hospital, was transferred to the sanatorium at Pittsburgh, Pa. Thursday. Fred Green is yet confined to Freedmen's Hospital. Herbert Jones, grand district deputy, was present to install the recently-elected officers, but granted the delay until the next regular meeting. 2 WOMEN AMONG 27 NEW INTERNES Thirteen of Group Began Interneships at Freed- men's, Friday Two women were among the thirteen internes who began their one-year period of internship at Freedmen's Hospital, Friday.

IF YOUR BOY WANTS NICE, CLEAN PROFITABLE WORK. HAVE HIM SELL THE TRIBUNE DR. C. H. WESLEY REFUSES POST AS WILBERFORCE HEAD DR. C. H. WESLEY REFUSES POST AS WILBERFORCE HEAD Decides Not To Accept Presidency After Investigation (Special to the Tribune) CINCINNATI, O.—Dr. Charles Wesley, Howard University professor, refused to accept the post as president of Wilberforce University, according to a statement by Bishop Reverdy Ransom, presiding bishop, this week. According to the statement, Dr Wesley said, "After careful consideration at Wilberforce and in full consideration of all varying and conflicting elements within and immediately surrounding the institution, I am convinced that I should not connect myself with Wilberforce as its president at this time. In an informal address before the Alpha Alpha Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity during his visit here, Dr Wesley said: "I do not know whether Wilberforce has enemies or not, but there must be some who do not wish the university well who would initiate such propaganda as appeared in the Negro press recently." Thus began the dignified challenge of the newly elected president of Wilberforce. Continuing, he said: "Wilberforce has been an institution for Negro education since 1663 and it ill becomes anyone to raise the ill name "Jim Crowism" at this date. It is no more 'Jim Crow' than our churches, lodges, and other organizations which we commonly accept and recognize as part of our community life. Wilberforce has nothing to apologize for in being a separate school; it has a heritage which it is proud of and that no other school of its kind can equal, and no one can deny that it has made a definite contribution to the race and to this country through the men and women it has trained and produced during its existence. "No one particularly wants to see Wilberforce become a state-controlled institution, although there may be some economic values therein, but if Negroes of this State and nation wish Wilberforce to endure as a free institution then they must contribute from their own pockets toward its support. If they fall to do this and the State assumes the responsibility then we admit our unwillingness to maintain what is rightfully ours—a noble heritage indeed. "I come to Wilberforce, not as a stepping stone to the bishopric as some would imply, but as one acce- cepting a challenge. I come because I believe the field of Negro education, its interpretation, application and practical administration, together with the need for Negro educators in the role of administrators, offers enough within itself to challenge the best within a man to strive and make a contribution in that field. Those that know me, my past, and the things for which I stand, know that I am not a sycophant nor one to sacrifice the rights and principles of freedom of my people for a mess of pottage or a position. And those that impute otherwise utter a lie! d "If I should finally accept, the position at Wilberforce I expect to issue a statement as to policies and program, but until then I do, not intend to engage in any controversies on the subject. I am not one to seek a controversy, but I will striks when forced to do so, and then only a telling blow. I hope and shall strive to give tone—a wholesome tone—to Wilberforce. And just as charity begins at home, so shall we expect to begin at home to solve our problems. Wilberforce is sick, sorely sick within, and only those who are fully acquainted with conditions there know how true this is. But that will not turn us from the task of linking all the good of the past with the problems of the present to make a greater and better Wilberforce for the future." Lightest Sentence Given Man Charged With Murder Wille Felder was sentenced to 30 days in jail after pleading guilty to a manslaughter charge in connection with the death of James Hill, 30, last April. Felder pleaded guilty to manslaughter and Justice James M. Proctor in pronouncing sentence, said shy man would have done what Felder had done. The sentence is one of the lightest ever imposed in the District in a homicide case. Felder, on the night of the murder, went to his home at 80 Defresca street and found Hill in his home, with his wife. Felder had been indicted on a first degree murder charge.

BISHOP JONES ADDRESSES GRADS OF FRELINGHUYSEN "Your accomplishments will be valuable to humanity only through love of service that you will render to it by conscientiously practicing the professions that you are today receiving your diplomas for," said the right Rev. Edward D. W. Jones, bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, Sunday, to the graduates of Frelinghuysen University. Bishop Jones selected for the subject of his address "Love." He read the 13th chapter of 1st Corrithians for the basis of his address, "Your life's work will be counted along with all that is immortal, if you will take this chapter as your guide throughout the years to come. Your love of mankind, whom you are educated to serve will take care of what ever life that comes after this one. 'A new commandment I give unto you. That you love the two-letter word "do" and your achievements will be rewarded handsomely" he said. The graduating exercises which were scheduled to be held at Galbraith A.M.E. Zion Church was transferred to the new commodious home of the University at the northwest corner Second and T streets, northwest, this city, in property that has been designated and consecrated to the education of Negro youth forever. The services were of a dedicatorial nature. Diplomas were awarded to persons in the following schools: John M. Langton School of Law; Claude R. Williford and Robert M. Williams, Jarvis School of Embalming; Evans R. Jones, George W. Lewis, Arthur Rollis and William Whitfield; Carson School of Practical Nursing, Anna M. Clomax, Dorothy C. Carter and Cora Lee. Dr. Anna J. Cooper, president, and Prof. James A. Davis, secretary-treasurer of the University presented the diplomas. Dr. Cooper in well chosen words told of the struggles of the university and that all debts had been paid. She was in high praise of the faculty for their co-operation in making the school year a success. She thanked the alumni for their loyalty and praised them for the scholarship that will be awarded annually by them. ELK NEWS By C. A.

WOODSON Stressing the need of organizzatoin, Dr. Carter G. Woodson, director of the Association of Negro History, and historian, addressed an open-air mass meeting of citizens in the Monroe School yard, Friday evening. Urgging the people to give their full support to colored banks, insurance companies and other businesses, Dr. Woodson took exception to a statement recently made by Professor Kelly Miller that Negro business everywhere was failing. Dr. Woodson paid tribute to the Rutherfords and Binga for their pioneering in establishing concerns which ran in competition with leading white businesses. Dr. Woodson further declared due to the machine age the laboring class of men are being pushed out of jobs and in a few years there will be very little for the colored laborer to do.

Mrs. Rachel Bell Wilkinson Dead In the death last week of Mrs. Rachel Bell Wilkinson, the widow of John Francis' Wilkinson, who for many years was assistant law librarian of the Library of Congress, removes from the community one of the oldest and most respected citizens. Of a quiet and gentle disposition, she was beloved by all with whom she came in contact. Representing one of the most prominent and outstanding families of this city, for it was her great grandfather for whom the George Bell School building was named, it might well be said another landmark has been removed from our midst.

HENRY LEWIS RETIRES AFTER 42 YEARS OF SERVICE J. HENRY LEWIS RETIRES AFTER 42 YEARS OF SERVICE J. Henry Lewis, director and founder of the Amphion Glee Club, and former director of several prominent church choirs here, retired from service with the Interstate Commerce Commission June 30 where he had served forty-two years as a section chief, being the only man of our group having that distinction with the Commission. Upon his retirement he was felicitated by the Commissioners and other officials, and the employees directly associated with him presented him with a Gladstone case fully equipped, and other suitable remembrances. After taking a needed rest on his farm in Virginia, Mr. Lewis intends to devote his time training male voices for road companies and the radio. His long xpérience with male voices especially fits him for that purpose. Many successful young men now with road shows, etc., owe their success to Mr. Lewis. Several church choirs have expressed the hope that he will accept choir directorship, since he is an acknowledged expert. He will of course continue his work with the Amphions.

BIG PROGRAM FOR CAMP PLEASANT TO-NIGHT BIG PROGRAM FOR CAMP PLEASANT TO-NIGHT The first party of campers is in the midst of camp life after several days at Camp Pleasant. The nurse reports that all of the babies have gained weight since their arrival on June 28, and that two babies have developed marvelously in activity and response. From the appearance of the mothers and the larger children it seems that all have gained in weight. Some mothers claim to be on a diet, but the diet schedule is not operative at the table. The physical part of the camp has been improved this year by the addition of a concrete wall along the road to prevent the road's washing away. Also, the old swimming pool has been remodeled and reconcreted. It is now in as good condition as if new. Mothers, children, and councillors enjoy swimming in the pool. No one has learned to swim as yet, but several hope to learn before leaving camp. There is a Suday School organized under the superintendency of Miss Annastasia Scott. There are five classes in the present party. After the individual lessons had been taught last Sunday, the classes assembled and the lesson was dramatized by a group of children. The morning of the Fourth of July was cool and damp and the campers spent most of the time in the pavilion playing indoor games and telling stories, etc. But in the afternoon, the spirit of the Fourth held full sway. There were races, field events, and athletics. All were given suckers in the midst of the afternoon. Program for Children After supper, there was a program by the children. After the program, fire works were displayed on the athletic field. The children looked on from the pavilion. Seventeen watermelons supplied the party. No dessert was served after supper, the melons being substituted therefor. There will be a program of songs, dramatic representations, dances, etc., on Friday evening, July 8, at 6:30 p.m. Friends are especially invited to come out. Among the visitors at camp last week were Major Campbell C. Johnson, Major A. O. Atwell, and Mr. and Mrs. Wm. A. Baltimore. Name and position of Councillors follows: E. P.

SECOND SECTION BOARD REFUSES PLEA OF TEACHER WHO WAS OUSTED BOARD REFUSES PLEA OF TEACHER WHO WAS OUSTED Mrs. Mary McNeil Sworn In As Member for Third Consecutive Term The Board of Education refused to reinstate A. U. Craig, Dunbar High School teacher, who was dismissed from the system July 1, 1918, at a special meeting of the board at Franklin Addministration Building, Friday morning, Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent of schools, told the board that Mr. Craig could not now be reinstated except under suspension of the rules of the board. He said to suspend the rules in this case, the applicant must have maintained a rating of excellent, must not have passed the age of retirement, and must not have been absent over five years. Dr. Ballon pointed out that Mr. Craig was legally dismissed and has been out of the system for 14 years. Reviewing the record of the dismissed teacher, Dr. Ballon said he had manitained a generally poor rating for 12 years he was in the system. Mr. Craig recently requested that his case be investigated and that he be rehabilitated. Mrs. McNeil Sworn In Mrs. Mary McNeil, board member, was sworn in for the third consecutive time when she took the oath of office at the beginning of the meeting. Secretary Harry O.
