7 CENTS PER COPY PRUDENTIAL BANK SAVED BY UNITED NEGRO EFFORT Tribune Extra Big Factor; More Than $100,000 Secured In Waivers A meeting by friends of the Prudential Bank will be held Tuesday, July 6, at the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School, Tenth and U-streets, northwest. Several prominent speakers will be on the program. The Negroes of Washington have set a precedent unknown in banking history, when they combined their efforts, and kept the Prudential Bank from closing last Friday and Saturday. Downtown stores had started the rumor that the Prudential was to close. Four white banks closed here last week, and that made the colored banks feel uneasy that a run might start. It really started on the Prudential. The bank examiners met the directors, Friday, with the view of closing the bank. He brought a white man to place an charge of the bank. Negroes sensed the situation and set their jaws with their faces to the wall. A happy thought was advanced to the examiner, asking him to give them a chance to prove to him that he did not know the Negroes of Washington. That as there was no mismanagement, no shortage from stealing or misappropriation of funds that they, the directors, felt that if they had a tell them the truth, the facts inel them the truth, the facts in the case that the Negroes of Washington would respond and the Prudential could be saved. The examiner took the matter (Continued on page 2) H. U. INSTRUCTOR NOT TO FACE GUN TOTING CHARGE The charge against Alonzo Bohannon, Howard University instructor in commerce and finance, of carrying a dangerous and deadly weapon, was nolle prosequi in Police Court, Saturday afternoon, when attorneys for Bohannon presented a motion before Judge McMahon to have the case quashed or to suppress the evidence. The motion was sustained by the court. Bohannon was arrested at his apartment on July 1, by Officer Murray, of No. 10 Precinct, when police were informed that a woman's screams were coming from the apartment which is in the fashionable Howard Manor. When officers arrived they found Bohannon and his wife fighting. The man was arrested and on arriving at the precinct a tear gas gun was found in his coat pocket. The gun was concealed in a fountain pen. Attorneys contended that when Bohannon was arrested he was in his shirt sleeves and the officers told him to put his coat on. Bohannon secured the coat from a closet. The gun was in the coat. Attorneys claimed that since the arresting officer made Bohannon get his coat in which the gun was found, the man was not carrying a deadly or concealed weapon, but took the gun out at the direction of the officer. Officer Murray claimed that there was nothing for him to do but place the charge against the instructor as the gun was in the coat pocket when he reached the precinct. Attorneys pointed out that Bohannon had a right to have the gun in his home. A disorderly conduct charge placed against Bohannon was dismissed at a previous trial. Attorneys George A. Parkey and Josee Lewis represented Bohannon Washington Tribune The Thompson-Julian Episode May Explode In Counter Suit SENSATIONS MAY BE DISCLOSED IN SOCIETY DIVORCE Mrs. Marjorie Thompson Plans To Sue Former H.U. Director In Philadelphia (Special to the Tribune) PHILADELPHIA. — A divorce action that is expected to rock Eastern society circles is in the making here, as Mrs. Marjorie R. Johnson Thompson, wife of Robert B. Thompson, former director of chemical laboratories at Howard University, sought the advice of one of Philadelphia's leading attorneys with the intention of bringing suit against her husband. Mrs. Thompson is a teacher at Miner Teachers' College, Washington, but has established residence here while attending summer school at the University of Pennsylvania. Mrs. Thompson also made week-end trips to Philadelphia during the winter to attend special classes at the university. Raymond Pace Alexander, former president of the National Bar Association, and one of the most brilliant lawyers in the East, was consulted recently by Mrs. Thompson with the result that action is alleged to have been started. Just what her grounds will be are not known, but close friends of the Washington and Philadelphia society matron say she is to sue on the grounds of cruelty and indignities. Many disclosures of a sensational nature are expected to be aired in the "indignities" clause. Speculation is rife as to just how Mrs. Thompson will approach this delicate subject. It is not known what action Mr. Thompson will take or if he will attempt to fight the action contemplated by his wife. Mr. Thompson was ousted from Howard University this year on recommendation of his superior, Prof. Percy Lavon Julian, head of the Department of Chemistry at Howard. Dean E. P. Davis approved of the recommendation and the board of trustees of the University recommended the dismissal. Prof. Julian wrote several letters to Jacob Shohan, a white instructor under him, while the former was in Germany. These letters were given to the press and contained certain endearing terms which left many wondering as to the intimacy between the two. Last fall Thompson filed affidavits with the university administration charging Julian with being too friendly with Mrs. Thompson. He claimed he spied on the two in Julian's apartment in the 1700 block of Willard street, and when he knocked on the door he was refused admittance. He claimed he has not lived with his wife since. On reporting the incident to the university he was advised to take some pills and sleep the matter off, and also told that the university would withhold action until the matter had been settled in the courts. Following this, Thompson sued Julian for $10,000, charging alienation of affection of Mrs. Thompson. Julian countered with a $50,000 damage suit. The Thompson were married August 6, 1923, in Baltimore. He lives at 211 Florida avenue, Washington, while Mrs. Thompson is residing at 325 East Chelton avenue, Philadelphia. Attorney Nathan A. Dobbins, of Washington, represents Mr. Thompson, but refused to comment on the proposed action taken by Mrs. Thompson in Philadelphia. If the libel in divore is instituted it will be filed in the Court of Common Pleas in Philadelphia. MISS ELVIN LEE AWARDED $1,000 ELK SCHOLARSHIP She Will Also Participate In The National Contest At Atlantic City Before a large colorful audience at the Howard Theatre Sunday afternoon, Miss Elvin M. Lee, of Washington and a Dunbar graduate, was awarded the $1,000 scholarship as winner of the Elks regional oratorical contest. In addition to the winning of the scholarship Miss Lee will receive a trip to Atlantic City to appear in the national contest with five other contestants from five other regions, covering the United States. There were five contestants in the contest Sunday. They were, as they spoke by number, Miss Vera Jones, Charleston, W. Va.; Miss Elvin M. Lee, Washington; Miss Elizabeth Miller, Stanton, Va.; Lloyd E. Galloway, Annapolis, Md., and Miss Mabel Lee, Philadelphia, Pa. Miss Elizabeth Miller, of Staunton, made a more favorable impression upon the audience than her opponents but she made a mistake in stating that Abraham Lincoln wrote "All men are created free and equal." That statement was against the facts and of course had its weight in the position she was awarded. The audience doubtless overlooked that fact in its cheering. The contest was preceded by a colorful street parade from Morning Star Lodge No. 40, south on Fifteenth street, east on N street, north on Fifth street and west on Florida avenue to the Howard Theatre. Morning Star Lodge and band; Columbia Lodge and band, and Alexandria Lodge and band with the various auxiliaries made FOUR INJURED AS CAR TURNS OVER ON LEE HIGHWAY Four persons were injured in an automobile accident late Saturday night on the Lee Highway about five miles from Fairfax, Va.

Other occupants of the first car who were injured when the machine turned over were Lewis Gray, 5043 Blaine street, northheast, who sustained lacerations of the right eye; Edward Carter, 1831 T street, northwest, cuts about the forehead; and Roosevelt Height, 1835 Eleventh street, northwest, for severe cuts on the right leg, requiring two stitches. All the injured persons were treated by Dr. William H. Greene and are being represented for personal injuries by Attorney S. R. Swaney. THE CRASH A RACKETEER PAYS THE PENALTY OF CRIME. Eddie Brown, 28, 1509 Fifth street, northwest, finished second best in his race with death while hauling alcohol into Washington. Eddie wanted to know how angels were made. He turned this corner on Michigan avenue at 70 miles an hour. —News Photo. Because his wife went riding in an automobile-with another man, Ernest H. Bolden, 1218 Thirty-seventh street, northwest, killed her, then shot his mother-in-law to death and tried to kill his wife's brother, Eddie Riley, in a wild drunken frenzy, Saturday night. After the double killing Bolden calmly left the scene, went to the home of his sister, 2624 K street, and went to sleep. It was here officers found him in bed and placed him under arrest. The dead women are Mrs. Elsie Bolden, 25, and her mother, Mrs. Jannie Plummer, 54, both of the Thirty-seventh street address. Confessed Double Murder The bullet Bolden fired at his brother-in-law struck a post on an iron bed in an upstairs room. When first arrested Bolden denied the shooting, but later confessed, and told officers he shot his wife because she went out riding with a man, by the name of Williams. He said he then killed his mother-in-law because she interfered with his married life. At No. 7 Precinct, where he was taken, Bolden prepared a statement in his own hand writing, confessing the double murder, and gave it to Officer William T. G. Mills. In a written statement dictated to police the man said he killed both women because they put him out the rear he lost his job. On the night of the killings he said he went to his wife's home early in the evening and asked his mother-in-law for her. He was told Mrs. Bolden was not in. He said he then sat in the park for an hour and went to the home of his sister, where he stole her gun and then went to the home of a woman where he purchased two pints of whiskey. Bolden said he drank the liquor to give him courage. In a drunken condition he said he went to his wife's home, and Fight Participants Throw Lye in Each Other's Face During an altercation at 140 Frances street, southwest, Sunday night, between Percy Williams, 36, and Louise King, 23, the two participants threw a small quantity of lye in each other's face. Both were treated at Providence Hospital, the former for burns about the left arm and face, and the latter for burns near the right eye. The injuries were not serious. RUM RUNNER DIES IN FLAMING ALCOHOL Woman In Serious Condition After Taking Iodine Eva Martin, 33, was in an undetermined condition at Casualty Hospital early this week suffering with poison effects received when she swallowed a small quantity of iodine with suicidal intent Sunday night.

Electric engineers have so perfected the arc lights that the doings of your favorite player can be followed in the night as in the day. Never before in Washington has night baseball been attempted, although other major sports such as football, tennis, and golf have been successfully played here.

Training School, concluded the convention of the Woman's Auxiliary meeting at the Mount Moriah Baptist Church, Thursday. Speaking on the sub-theme "Christ, the remedy for the lack of consecrated church leadership," Rev. William L. Washington, pastor of Zion Baptist Church, told the convention, Thursday. "We have got to come back to Christ before we will have a consecrated leadership, if we want success we must put Christ in everything. Too much stress is being laid on education. Education will not solve the problems of today. The jails of the country are filled with educated youths because their education has left Christ out. Christ is our leader and we must stay by His Side." Rev. Walter H. Brooks, pastor of the nineteenth Street Baptist Church, told the ministers that if the subject from which he spoke was true, it was a reproach to the cause of the church. He said "The leaders should be filled with the spirit of Jesus for it is a dominating force and a man with half an education but filled with the spirit of the Lord is a better preacher than all the scholars." He concluded: "No college in the world can give you the spirit of Jesus Christ, and everybody in the church should be consecrated to God." Choir Member Resigns Mrs. Cora Beale Jones, prominent member of the Asbury M. E. Church choir, resigned her post last week. Her resignation caused much regret to other choir members. Bapt.

It is the duty of the church to lift the people above the slumps of liquor drinking." The Rev. A. J. Tyler, 69-year-old retiring president of the convention, declared, "The church dis- After hearing addresses pro and con during the public forum on this question which is stirring the nation today, Rev. C. T. Murray introduced a motion asking that the body vote on the issue. This motion after being properly seconded was tabled by a vote of 22-19. However, the discussion led by Rev. George O. Bullock revealed that the majority of the pastors were for the enforcement of the present amendment rather than the renewal of it. Rev. Bullock Opens Forum In opening the forum, Rev. Bullock declared "the most prosperous years of the church has been during the time of temperance, yet I can not indorse strong drinks." He charged that the sponsors of the 18th Amendment were hypocrites. He further declared, "if we could refrain the younger generation from taking strong drinks the bootlegger would go out of business. Because the 18th Amendment is not enforced is no reason that it should be repealed; the church should stand up for what is right, and I indorse the Amendment because it is right." A corroboration of Rev. Bullock's words was stressed by Rev. Walter H. Brooks, dean of local Baptist ministers, who added, "God made the Ten Commandments, but no race obeys them; law does not anybody good." Rev. Jernagin Speaks Rev. William H. Jernagin, pastor of the Mount Carmel Baptist Church and a recent delegate to the Republican Convention in Chicago, said, "The reason the 18th Amendment has not been enforced is because the enforcers are not in favor of it. Facts reveal that the church must take the righteous stand. It is right to eliminate the evils in the amendment, but to repeal it would be traveling backwards. The wrong must be eliminated, but the principles must stand." "A Shame and Disgrace" "Like the Ten Commandments, the 18th Amendment has shown man just how low he has fallen," declared Rev. B. H. Whiting, pastor of Friendship. He added, "Bringing back liquor will never bring back prosperity; the return of the people to God will only do this." In a forceful speech for the repeal of the Amendment, Rev. J. P. Taylor declared, "This law has brought about the greatest industry in America for the bootleger. You can never help a man by depriving him of anything he wants The Fall of Babylon or Belshazzar's Feast A dramatic religious cantata will be presented by the choir of the Second Baptist Church, at the church, Third street, between H and I streets, northwest, Sunday, July 24, at 8:15 p.m. This cantata having been presented several times at different churches during the past season is given this time as the closing event of the season to enable our friends an opportunity to see it.

He cited Paul as an example, for after building up for himself a rich Christian background. Paul feared that a possible misdeed might cause him to be rejected from the Kingdom of Gödel. The pastor, Rev. E. J. Bradshaw, officiated at the communion services in the afternoon. Mississippi Governor Treats White & Colored Boy Alike JACKSON, Miss.—(CNS)—Governor Connor of Mississippi, acting upon his previously announced decision to commute the sentence of Andrew Prince, colored boy, as well as that of Paul Wexler, white youth, if he acted in the murder case at all, last week granted both boys a fifteen day respite from their death dentence in order that he could have time in which to conduct further inquiry into the case. The two condemned boys, both under age, were convicted of murdering a gasoline station agent in a holdup. Wexler was said to have been the brains of the crime and Prince to have fired the fatal shot. An inquiry into their mental capabilities and other circumstances will be conducted by personal representatives of Governor Connor during the next two weeks. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY. JULY 22. 1932 to do; thus the 18th Amendment is a shame and a disgrace. It is the duty of the church to lift the people above the slumps of liquor drinking." The Rev. A. J. Tyler, 69-year-old retiring president of the convention, declared, "The church disgraced itself when it indorsSED the 18th Amendment. The night before in the president's annual message to the convention, Rev. Tyler shocked the audience with a fiery denunciation of prohibition. Rev. Tyler said: "The church's business is to drive politics, not to be led by politics. Prohibition has come out and dragged the church through the mire. It has been perpetrated on us in this country by racketeers. "The church winks at the robbing and shooting done in the name of prohibition. I said to this convention last year that we are wrong in this attitude. I say to you again; we are wrong." Declaring that the leaders in state and church, who lead the fight for prohibition have now seen the failure and told the laymen to go it alone now, Rev. Tyler, accusing John D. Rockefeller, famous philanthropist, said: "John D. Rockefeller, Jr., helped to split the Northern Baptist Convention, with this thing. Now he says, 'you may all go home.'" Pointing out that the church will never be right in her contentions until she fights for what God would have us do, Dr. Tyler said: Questions Right "What right have I to go out and help shoot up and frame men and make them keep the law? You who go out and fight these men and get the police to tie them while you whip them, are cowards! I am going to keep on saying this. Anything you have to guy a man about in order to get him to do right about is hypocritical." Replying to those who would call him a "Wet," Dr. Tyler said: "A man can say what he believes without supporting that which is wrong." Decrying the system of squeezing out the small minister, a system practiced by the ministers of larger and more powerful charges in the church, Dr. Tyler said: "You preachers who think you can kill a man because he is small, remember that you cannot unlock horns with the dead." In a dramatic conclusion, his face streaming with tears, Dr. Tyler told the delegates: "I commend you to God, to His goodness, to His grace. May He, out of His mercy and grace, bless you." Other pastors who participated in the public forum on the prohibition question included Rev. J. T. Harvey, Rev. T. Brown, Rev. S. D. Lampkins, Rev. G. W. Coleman, and Rev. J. Harvey Randolph. REPUBLICAN CLUB HEARS DePRIEST AND COLLADAY The National Negro College League Republican Club sponsored an open meeting at the Whitelaw Hotel Monday night. More than 200 members and friends were present. They enthusiastically received the addresses of Hon. Oscar De Priest, Member of Congress from Illinois, and Edward F. Colladay, Republican National Committeeman. The National Committeeman was introduced to the group by J. Francis Wells, Alternate Delegate from the District of Columbia to the Republican National Convention in Chicago. In this his initial speech of the campaign Mr. Colladay praised the work of the young Negro Republicans and impressed upon his audience the need of adhering to the Republican Party, which of the two major political groups, is the one which in its platform definitely commits itself to the welfore of the American Negro. Representative De Priest was introduced by Dr. John R. Francis, and delivered a speech of inestimable value to the Negro as an American citizen. In his address the congressman expressed a degree of satisfaction with the work being promoted among first voters of color. He further elucidated upon the record of the Administration during the past three and a half years and implored the Negro as an American citizen to go to the polls and support the Republican Party. Other speakers of the evening were West A. Hamilton, Atty William L. Houston, Virgil Franklin, Dr. John E. Washington, and Hyman Y. Chase, president of the club. 2 New C.M.A. Grocers NEW YORK, July 21—Two more Harlem grocers signed up with C. M. A., last week, the first being G. Tuerino, manager of his own store at 21 W. 128th street, and the second Hurd's Grocery, 2145 Seventh avenue, which is managed by W. Cook. NEGRO FAMILY STATISTICS FOR MISSOURI (CNS)—The Bureau of the Census has just announced that there are 59,061 Negro families in the State of Missouri, of which 13,374 are owner families and 48,571 are tenant families. The number of Negro families represents 6.3 per cent of the total number of families of the State, while the Negro population, 223,840, represents but 6.2 per cent of the total population. Approximately 23.0 per cent of the Negro families of the State live in owned homes. The Negro families occupied 12,152 owned non-farm homes, of which the median value was $1,519 as against a median value of $3,959 for native white owned non-farm homes. A total of 37,953 non-farm homes were rented by Negro families. The median rental per month for these was given as $18.58, and that for native whites as $25.67. Of the owned homes, 4,165 were valued from $1,000 to $2,999; 1,841 valued at $3,000 to $4,999; and 1,644 ranged in value from $5,000 to $20,000 and over. The median size of the Negro family was 2.48, while the median size of the native white family was 3.23. Of the Negro families in Missouri, 53,457 were described as having a home-maker (the woman member of the family having the care of the family and family) of which 19,724 were gainfully employed. Of the gainfully employed 2,558 were employed at home, 220 in agricultural pursuits, and 2,383 in other occupations. With 17,135 stated as employed away from home, 461 were shown as professional workers, 144 office workers, 2,628 industrial workers, 79 sales women, and 13,391 servants, waitresses, etc. Negro families with man head number 47,197. These male heads included 2,446 under 25' years of age, 10,744, 25 to 34 years; 13,735, 35 to 44 years; 11,394, 45 to 54 years; 5,544, 55 to 64 years; 2,333, 65 to 74 years; and 922, 75 years and over. In Kansas City, the Negro families, 11,436, represented 10.5 per cent of the total number of families in the city and lived in 1,825 owned non-farm homes and 9,037 rented non-farm homes, with 280 ranging in value from $1,000 to $1,999; 1,101 valued at $2,000 to $4,999; and 351 valued at $5,000 to $20,000 and over. In St. Louis, the Negro families, 23,548, represented 11.0 per cent of the total number of families in the city and lived in 2,198 owned non-farm homes and 20,456 rented non-farm homes, with 142 ranging in value from $1,000 to $1,999; 876 valued at $2,000 to $4,999; and 1,108 valued at $5,000 to $20,000 and over. CAMP PLEASANT'S BIG EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, and all play and no work would surely make Jack a one-sided boy. For this reason those who plan the program for boys and girls who spend their vacation at Camp Pleasant have expanded the program initiated last year, of a definite schedule of supervised activities directed by young men and young women specially trained or adapted for such work. Every day the children meet in groups to study music, dramatic art, art and handicrafts. Probably no feature of the camp routine is more interesting and enjoyable than the music hour. During this period the children are taught to sing and appreciate songs of many different kinds. Patriotic songs, pep songs, and lively action songs form an important part of the camp's musical program. Many of the novelty songs are sung with clever and appropriate gestures which never cease to amuse and delight the children. Special emphasis is placed upon the singing and interpretation of Negro spirituals and folk songs. Usually the more cheerful and hopeful of the spirituals are taught to the little campers. Through their work in music the children learn not only to sing many charming melodies of other peoples and other lands, but also to love and appreciate the wonderful folk music of their own people. Mr. G. Leonard Allen, accomplished musician, a poet, and teacher of choral music and English in the Adkins High School of Winston-Salem, N.C., is the councillor in charge of music. He is assisted by Miss Nora Drew, who is also in charge of the "Library Shack." Library Hour Another popular period of the day's program is the library hour, at which time the children, mothers and councillors enjoy reading the current Negro newspapers, the daily papers, popular magazines, and books graciously lent to the camp by the public library of the city. The children's classes in soap modeling and linoleum-block-printing have aroused quite a bit of enthusiasm. Mice, elephants, lions, and polar bears are being modelled with surprising speed and considerable skill. The linoleum blocks, in many instances, are of camp scenes. Judging from the speci- HOOVER'S WAGE CUTTING POLICY HOOVER'S WAGE CUTTING POLICY By Labor Research Association (This article, prepared by Labor Research Association, is a factual review of the wage-cutting program now so widespread in the United States and supported by the Republican and Democratic Parties. It is well to remember, while reading this article, that Negro and foreign workers are even more affected by this program than white native born workers. Plank 2 in the Communist Party Platform is "Against Hoover's wage-cutting policy," and Plank 1 is for "Unemployment and Social Insurance at the expense of the State and employers.") When President Hoover, on June 30, 1932, signed the bill cutting salaries of Federal employee by 81% per cent, he proved again that his policy is one of wage-cutting and that he believes in throwing the burden of the economic crisis on the workers. On November 21, 1929, he and the nation's leading industrialists, with American Federation of Labor and Railroad Brotherhood officials, entered into "a gentlemen's agreement" that there should be no wage-cutting "during the present situation," agreement was openly broken in September, 1931, without a word of protest from the White House, when United States Steel Corporation and Bethlehem Steel Corporation, followed quickly by other companies, announced a 10 per cent cut affecting all their employees. President Hoover himself has now broken the agreement by requiring Federal employee to take one month's forced "vacation" without pay. He is personally credited with pushing through this particular measure, which was adopted, according to newspapers reports, "at the insistence of the President." This economy bill was amended especially to include the lower paid employees earning only $1,000/a year or $83.33 a month, mens produced by the free-hand drawing classes, there are some really talented campers. The Junior Girls' and Mothers' Clubs are working out problems in oil paints on jars, stones, and bottles, and are stenciling clothes and table covers. Such instruction offers useful suggestions for practical work in beautifying the home. Cleverly designed paper cut-out booklets are being made in which will be pasted recipes and balanced menus which are given to them in lectures by the camp dietician. Art and Craft The instruction is handcrafts is Miss Jones, an artist and also an artist in art at Howard University. Dramatics is also one of the many important features of the camp program. Even the smallest child takes an active part in the daily program which consists of poems, stories, games, and short plays. It is interesting to watch the various members of the group competing for places on the programs. Although the final selections are made by the instructor and her assistant, the children are consulted before the program is printed. Thus the children themselves have an opportunity to plan their own programs. Miss Gertrude P. McBrown, prominent dramatic artist and director of plays, supervises the classes in dramatic art. The main program and exhibition of the second party will be held on Friday, July 22, at 6:30 p.m. The public is cordially invited. AMERICAN LEGION NAME DELEGATES TO CONVENTION Four delegates and four alternates were elected to the Department of the District of Columbia American Legion convention Thursday by the James E.

The reduction, as now put through, affects about 600,000 government workers, whose average wage is $1,414, a year. Moreover, under this new law, the worker loses his fifteen days' annual vacation with pay, as formerly provided, and thus suffers a further reduction. No Hoover Protest Not only has President Hoover uttered no word that would call a halt in the general slashing of wages, but he let it be known in September, 1931, that he "has no intention of decrying or objecting to the cuts that have been announced." So clearly did the action of U. S. Steel Corporation, in its 10 per cent wage cut, break the promises made at the White House conference that the question was immediately raised in the daily press. Just what was meant by Hoover's statement given to the newspapers after the conference on November 21, 1929: "The President is authorized to announce that the employers will not initiate any movement for wage reduction and it is their strong recommendation that this attitude should be pursued by the country as a whole." Former Secretary of Labor, James J. Davis, who had been present at the conference, immediately explained for his chief, through the press, that "the genelemen's understanding" was only for a fixed period, but he "could not recall how long that period was to be," although nothing had been stated after the conference about any definite time limit on the agreement. Wage Cutting Became General During the year immediately following the White House conference, an average reduction of 10 per cent for 54 manufacturing industries, with a 20 per cent drop in wages of automobile workers, was reported by the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. By the end of 1931, wage cuts had become practically universal, the reductions ranging from 10 per cent to 55 per cent and more. The sharpest cut recorded as taken by any union was the reduction of 40 per cent to 55 per cent accepted by the American Federation of Full-Fashioned Hosiery Workers, affiliated with the United Textile Workers and the American Federation of Labor. Three out of four of all concerns in the leading fields of American business cut wage rates during 1930 and 1931, according to a special study of the National Industrial Conference Board, and the reductions averaged 13.9 per cent. The survey covered 1,718 concerns, employing 3,258,666 persons in 1929. This report may be taken as a conservative statement of the cuts in wage rates, and it does not include any statement of the reduction in workers' total earnings. Total payrolls of 89 manufacturing industries dropped from an index of 104.8 in May, 1929, to 44.7 in April, 1932, according to the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. In other words, these industries are now paying less than half the total amounts paid to wage earners before the crisis; and the trend continues downward. The employers and their economic advisers, such as the Standard. Statistics Corporation, contend that wages must be further "defated," and uninterrupted propaganda for more cuts emanates from sources close to the White House. The Democratic bosses are equally favoraba to wage cutti although not so open in their a vocacy. GRACE LUTHERAN CHURCH Y. W. C. A. Building 9th St., and Rhode Island Ave. Sunday School, 10:00 A. M.

SPORTS REVIEW By ALBERT BROOKS: Whate Coach Lawson Robertson of the American Olympic Team calls the “Best Team in a Quarter Century,” sparkles with Negro athletes. Ralph Metcalfe reigns supreme as kingpin of the sprints, outelassing America’s “fastest hu- man” in both the 100 and 200 meter dashes. The Marquette sen- sation’ stepped out to win in both eases by outdistancing another fine Negro athlete, Eddie Tolan, ex- Michigan star, ‘who finished second in both events. Two ebony streaks lel the way, and three of the best sprint men ‘of the white race fin- ished third, fourth and fifth in each event—inches ahead of a third Ne- gro sengation, James Johnson of Minois State Normal. ‘An unfortunate angle of the otherwise brilliant Olympic trials concerns several decisions of the Olympic Committee which changed the lineup of entrants in certain events. One of these changes rob- bed the brilliant James Johnson of his hard-earned berth on the 400 meter relay team. The regular procedure, and the previous under- standing in this case, would give ‘the places on this team to the ‘three who finished fourth, fifth and sixth in the finals of the 100 meters, the committee selecting the fourth man. In the present case, the committee has selected the “fourth and fifth man in the 100 and 200 meter finals to run ‘THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JULY 22, 1932 | in the race where each of the reldy men runs the 100 meters. This selection is abviously un- fair, as the two men who finished fourth and fifth in the 200 meters, finished behind James Johnson’ in the 100 meters finals. The 100 meters is the distance run by each man in the 400 meter relay; and the fastest 100 meter men should have been selected. If Johnson is the third fastest 100 meter man on the 400 meter team he should have been the third man selected for the 100 meter team regardless as to how far behind he might finish in other races at distances different from the one in question. The other decision involved. the adding of a jumper who had failed to qualify, to the broad jump finals. One mighty leap by this athlete carried him to a close vietory over Gordon of Towa, an outstanding Negro broad jumper. Gordon is recognized as the A. A. U. champ in this event, since the A. A. U. did not recognize the irregularities practiced by the Olympic Commit- tee in the juggling of the entrants. Another brilliant Negro failed to make the grade when Beatty fell and did not finish in the 400 meter hurdles. Beatty, who broke the record for this. event a few weeks ago, was slightly off color during the trials, It is the oe ion of this column that. the failure of Beatty to qualify removed one of America5s ‘bat offensive weap- ons from the 400 meter hurdles. An up and coming young Negto, Williams of Hampton, could not push the javelin as far as the three finalists who finished first, second and third and thereby gained the right to represent the United States in this event in the Olym- pics. His showing, that he is one of the five or six best javelin throwers in the country, leaves him nothing of which to be ashamed. tees Another “New York Decision” robbed Kid Chocolate of his second hard-earned Victory over Jack “Kid” Berg. This decision, like the other, was the signal for an outburst of razzing of the officials by the fans. Ringside press score sheets had given Chocolate seven rounds and Berg six, The fans gave the Cuban many more, Kid Chocolate carried the fi¢ht to Berg, battered his eyes, and then receiv- ed a “New York’ beating.” ae sees If the people of the District of Columbia realize the civie need for ‘recreational facilities, they know ‘that money spent along these lines ‘reduces expenditures for hospitals ‘and jails. By their very nature, ‘the public parks, playgrounds, ten- nis courts, golf links and swim- ming pools are d2mocratic—public. ly maintained for the benefit of the public, The poorer citizens need these recreational facilities most, as they. do not belong to clubs and cannot afford periodical excursions to resorts.

Swim" Cam- eg det Ane Sees rel = Siren made _ Over 2,000 persons were given instruction in- swimming at the Francis Swimming Pool the week of July 11-16. The total attend- ance at the pool in this same per- iod was 3,548. All ages from 2 to 80 have taken part in the “learn- to-swim” campaign which has been in progress at District pools. Charles R. Drew, manager of the pool, made the following state. ment to the Tribune in refeyence to the campaign: “The life guards have been a bit overworked but the results of their efforts have more than repaid them. Throughout the week the services of the Francis swimming teams, especially the girl members have been offered voluntarily and they did yoeman service in demon: strating and assisting at the large classes held three times each day. “Because so many Pee have become interested and sincere in their efforts to learn to swim and safely enjoy themselves in the water the classes at 10:30 am., 3:30 and 8:30 p.m., will continue for at least another two weeks. If there are any left then who can- not swim the classes may be con- tinued through the summer. “As an added incentive to swim- ming and an aid to deflated pocket books of parents the pools, with the sanction of Capt. Hoover, gen- eral manager of the Welfare and Recreational Association, have ¢e- cided to let all playground chil- dren who come with their play- grounds Erte into the pools free at 10 a.m., Mondays, Weines- days and Fridays. ‘They must bring their own suits and towels. “These children will be given special instruction by a group of volunteer American Red Cross Life Savers, girl members of the Francis teams, includi OE the Miss es Clarke Bailey, Cera Catlett, Ber- ice Dabney, Connie Lucas, Cariyn Wilson, and’ Gertrude Fletcher. “For healthy fun and splenci¢ exercise there is no sport superio to swimming for young and ol: and the past week has shown just how much enjoyment can be had by all ages. “In the near future classes in life saving will be formed to allow the more advanced swimmers 1 chance to become affiliated witl the American Red Cross.

The Pilots in a second game with the Black Sox dropped a 11 to 10 contest in a bitter struggle. The playing of Hughes at second base for the Pilots in the game with the Mayfair club was one of the features of this contest. Besides getting three hits in four times at the bat, Hughes slammed out a home run and handled many difficult chances with one mishap. “Mule” Suttles and Dunn also hit circuit blows in this game. In the two games with the Baltimore Black Sox the Pilots split even. The Washington team won the first game in a heavy hitting contest, getting 14 blows off McDuff. In the second the District lads lost a heart breaking struggle in the ninth inning by a 11 to 10 decision. **TBURSDAY'S GAME** **PILOTS** **MAYFAIR** ab h r e a b r h e Benns.af. 4 1 0 Leanest.2b. 5 1 0 O'Bryant.af. 4 1 0 Muffler.2b. 5 1 0 Hughes.1b. 4 3 1 Dean.rf. 4 1 0 Hughes.2b. 4 3 1 Sharkey.ef. 4 1 0 Johnson.rf. 5 1 0 Allen.ef. 4 1 0 Hampton.ef. 5 1 0 McAllister.as. 4 1 0 Dunn.as. 4 1 1 Claren.1b. 4 1 1 Richardson.af. 4 1 1 Wagner.ef. 4 1 1 Totals: 36 14 9 2 Totals: 37 9 5 1 Mayfair..... 0 0 0 3 0 0 2 5 Pilots..... 1 0 3 0 0 1 2 2 0 9 Three-base hits—Dean. one runs— Hughes, Dunn, Suttles.

NEWS OF THE SPORT WORLD EXPERTS SAY KID CHOCOLATE WON EXPERTS SAY KID CHOCOLATE WON All New York Papers Give Cuban Boxer Decision In Berg Bout NEW YORK.-Kid Chocolate defeated Jack Kid Berg in a slashing 15-round bout in Madison Square Garden Bowl, on Monday night, but the decision was awarded Berg, according to the opinion of practically every boxing expert at the ring side. Every newspaper in New York gave the Cuban fighter the advantage and over 15,000 fans let out a mighty howl of disapproval when Berg was given the decision over the flashy Chocolate. Herald Favors Chocolate The Washington Herald, in a head line article said, "Kid Wins, But Berg Gets Nod." The Herald states: "Lithe, graceful Kid Chocolate won eight of 15 rounds from old Jackie Berg in a blistering fight at Madison Square Garden Bowl tonight, so the officials gave Berg the decision. "Not all of the officials, however, as Charlie Lynch, a judge, cast one minority ballot in favor of the dusky Cuban. The others, Referee Johnny McAvoy and Harold Barnes submitted a majority report for Berg. "Fifteen thousand fans uttered one derisive shriek and fainted dead away. "Boxing writers around the ring-side were unanimous in declaring that Chocolate had won the fight. So far as could be learned there was not a dissenting vote among the so-called experts." Chocolate Won Ed Frayne, sport editor of the New York American, gave Chocolate eight rounds, Berg 6, and one even. Harry Cross, of the New York Herald-Tribune, gave Chocolate 9 rounds, Berg 5, and one even. Continuing Cross says: "The referee, Johnny McAvoy, and one of the judges, Harold Barnes, gave the verdict to Berg and the other judge, Charles Lynch gave it to Chocolate. As it appeared to this writer Chocolate had nine rounds, Berg five, and one round was even. "There was a mixture of jeers and cheers at the verdict. Chocolate was cheered when he left the ring." Great Fight Joseph C. Nichols, in the New York Times, says of the fight: "Many thought that the Cuban, due to his more effective punching at long range and better boxing ability was entitled to the award. Most of the experts at the ring-side also were of this opinion, although a few thought that the decision was just. "Regardless of the dissatisfaction evoked by the award, the bout was highly exciting. The crowd, which included Mayor Walker, Grover Whalen and Gene Tunney, frequently was moved to cheer the sturdy rivals as they continued along at a blistering pace which seemed impossible to maintain." Blow by Blow Here is the way Ed Frayne, of the New York American, gave a round-by-round account of the battle: FIRST ROUND—Chocolate blasted two lefts to Berg's body in the first, almost before the sound of the gong died out.

Those expected to make the trip are John Hyson, Metropolitan champion; Paul Blackwell, Johnson, "Slim" Postell, Harrison Tyler, and Oliver Hargroves. hook to body and left and right to chin. Chocolate let fly a volley of punches at Berg's face and most landed. Chocolate's round. In the ninth Chocolate caught Berg running with a well-timed right to chin, but Berg more than evaded the score with a half dozen solid punches. Chocolate turned Berg with right uppercut, then two heavy rights to head. Berg kept pounding at Chocolate's left side. Berg turned ringing and swapped punches. Even round. Berg pinned Chocolate in a corner and pegged away at his body in the tenth. They locked heads and exchanged the body with the opponent. Berg pinned Chocolate away with hard lefts to body, outscored Chocolate in several rallies up close. Chocolate caught Jack coming in with powerful right to jaw, staggering Berg. Berg drew a yell from the crowd when he belted Chocolate with right to jaw in the eleventh, then kept pounding at body. Berg out-punched Chocolate in an exchange with right to jaw, left and right to face, and Berg kept pounding away at body in thrilling exchange. Berg's round. Berg in motion, in hammersight lightly at body. They were boxing on even terms when Chocolate cut house with heavy rights to face. Chocolate was catching Berg rushing with sharp punches to the right. Berg was caught one in a furious rally and won the round. Berg electrified the crowd when he unclosed his best rally of the ninth, a two-fisted attack to Berg's head in the third. Berg was caught to face and for a few seconds it seemed likely that the Briton would hit the floor. But he took his medicine gamely and was actually outgunned Chocolate in the last in the fourteenth. Berg was back tearing at Chocolate live! as ever. He outspoken, with a right, under Chocolate's heart—amelled the Cuban. Chocolate counted the Berz, enforced him four to one, in the first two minutes. Berg's round. Chocolate Outweighed It was announced that Referee Johnny McEvoy and Judge Harold Barnes voted for Berg and Judge Charley Lynch for Chocolate, Berg weighed 137 pounds and Chocolatte 130%. Chocolate is an orthodox boxer. He is a counter fighter, which apparently works to his disadvantage in the eyes of many boxing judges. But he does everything right. He wastes no motion like Berg. His blows are crisp and straight from the shoulder. He shifts prettily and is a master at ducking. In the eighth round Berg looked like a defeated fighter. Both eyes bore marks of Chocolate's blows and the Briton's attack had apparently been stunned by a clever glove wielder. Chocolate frequently leaped to stab Berg with lefts and rights and then hop back to avoid Berg's rush. The terrific pace which Chocolate set in hitting Berg so often tired him and in the last found rounds Berg with his extra poundage was the stronger. Berg made a spectacular finish in the last two rounds. In the fifteenth Chocolate was so tired that he was hanging on, but Berg, too, was just about played out.

Taking the conference release sent me I will try to point out to you it is all about. The Tribune scored on all other papers last week in publishing the fact that there would be no Lincoln-Howard game this year as Lincoln would not seek re-admission to the C.I.A.A. The Tribune story was confirmed by the action of the Board of Athletic Control of Lincoln which met in Philadelphia Wednesday and approved the action of W.L. Wright, president of the Board, who advised the C.I.A.A. that Lincoln would withdraw its application for admission to the association. There were five conditions set up by the association which Lincoln must comply with before the Chester County school would be taken into membership. The whole matter seems rather simple to me and could be ironed out without difficulty if all concerned would put their shoulders to the wheel and put minor prejudices aside. Taking the conditions as they appear in the release sent me I will try to point out to John and Mary Public just what it is all about. C. I. A. A.

I can see nothing more reasonable than such a request. At the last special meeting of the association Lincoln was not represented in person, but wrote that the school was willing to abide by the rules and regulations of the association. I pointed out in this column some time ago that Lincoln should have had a personal representative at the meeting. Letters are all right in their place, but in this instance Lincoln might have had an ambassador present who would have gone into the entire situation with the C.I.A.A. officials and many things covered that would be impossible in a mere letter.

No. 5.—That Lincoln give positive asseside by the rules of the C.I.A.A. has already done this in writing and I am her personal, accredited representative. Condition No. 3.—That Lincoln withdraw her objection to the constitutionality of the suspension. I think this is the most difficult of all as Lincoln has not been given the opportunity to prove her allegation on this point. According to letters sent me by the C.I.A.A. and Dr. W. G. Alexander, representing Lincoln, this point has not been definitely cleared. Both sides have merit. I am of the opinion that this question might be adjusted before a board consisting of representatives from the C.I.A.A. and Lincoln with a neutral person or persons agreed on acting in the capacity of third parties. The findings of such a board would be final. LINCOLN SHOULD BEAR ENTIRE EXPENSE Condition No. 4.—If another special meeting is called on behalf of Lincoln. Lincoln is to bear the expenses of such a meeting. I am against this and suggest that the C.I.A.A. along with Lincoln bear the expenses of such a meeting. Lincoln could be taxed pro rata. It is inadvisable to pay the expenses of persons who are to try you. It is only too easy to wine and dine your judges and place them under obligation to you. This condition has too many disadvantages to be considered. Judges should be free and unhampered in their work and not feel obligated to persons they are trying. It's not just the ethical thing to do in cases of this nature. Condition No. 5.—That Lincoln give positive assurance that she is willing to abide by the rules of the C.I.A.A. Lincoln has already done this in writing and I am sure she will do it through her personal, accredited representative. LINCOLN FEARS HUMILIATIONS I am of the opinion that the book No. 3.

I am of the opinion that the bone of contention is around condition No. 3. Lincoln has the impression that she will be humiliated in the eyes of the public if she fails to make a case on this point. As suggested above I further suggest that the findings of this board of inquiry with the neutral representatives be confidential. The fact that they have agreed one way or the other is all that's necessary. I am still hoping that the entire matter may be adjusted before the time comes when the schools resume athletic relations in the fall. To refresh the memory of those who are not familiar with the situation, Lincoln was suspended for playing club teams and using an eneligible player in the Howard-Lincoln game at Philadelphia. Lincoln admitted using the player in question and playing club teams, but pointed out the school made money playing club teams so as to enable the school to pay expenses of C.I.A.A. teams that did not draw. Lincoln still contends that the association should amend its rule so as to permit members to play representative clubs. FAVOR PLAYING CLUB TEAMS I heartily agree with Lincoln might be established. Of course, I State and possibly a few other asses by such a ruling as they are out of teams. Such games with schools mean a lot to the athletic funds of section of the country there are at teams the equal of C.I.A.A. teams the less known C.I.A.A. members. I suggest that a list of club and their qualifications passed on members of the C.I.A.A.

State and of never played. y agree with Lincoln on this score and tha published. Of course, Hampton, St. Paul, possibly a few other association teams would being as they are out of competition with games with schools like, Morgan, How the athletic funds of the schools.

State and possibly a few other association teams would not be affected by such a ruling as they are out of competition with outstanding club teams. Such games with schools like, Morgan, Howard and Lincoln mean a lot to the athletic funds of the schools. In large cities in this section of the country there are any number of clean clubs that have teams the equal of C.I.A.A. teams and draw far better than some of the less known C.I.A.A. members. I suggest that a list of club teams be submitted to the C.I.A.A. and their qualifications passed on so as to make them associate members of the C.I.A.A. I am sure teams in the south would benefit by such an amendment and add to the schedule and athletic fund. A clean group of players like the Baltimore Athenians, Philadelphia Tribune and the Washington Y.M.C.A. would add much to the schedule of St. Paul, Hampton, N. C. State and other schools where these clubs have never played. SIKI LEAVES FOR TOUR OF EUROPE BOSTON. — Reginald Tedella Berri, known to the sporting world as Regis Ski, will sail for Europe this-month to engage in several wrestling bouts. His first match will be at Madgeburg, Germany. During his stay in Europe he will defend his diamond studded championship belt which he won at the catch-as-catch-can tournament in Madrid, Spain, in 1930. Ski and his wife have been living in Roxbury, Mass., but he left recently for a tour of the Canadian middlewest. The wrestler is 32 years old and was born in Dire Dahanah, Abyssinia. He graduated from high school in his country and attended Ohio State University. Jim Londer, Shikat, Klay and Stainke and other white wrestlers are steeting clear of the Negro wrestler.

This marked the first contest with Baltimore for many years and was the local spikers' first game under the flood lights. Going into the contest as a strong favorite, the winners started off slow. It was in the second contest that the Washingtonians struck their stride. Perfect setups by Haxtie and Greene and the smooth passes by the entire team was sad music to the losers. The Druid Hill team played smart volley ball in the first and fourth contests, coming from behind on each occasion to cop the victory. The two teams will meet again the next week in Washington. Efforts are under way to secure the illuminated courts in Potomac Park. The score: Twelfth Street "Y" defeated Druid Park, 12-15, 15-8, 15-5, 12-15, 15-7.

"FLASH" ROBESON The Virginia White Sox surprised the Huntsville Athletics by handing them a dual beating on the former's diamond by the scores 15-4 and 10-5. Sunday. L. Wills' batting featured both games. He was ably aided in the first game by Richard's and Lewis' brilliant fielding. Tom Washington pitched a steady game. G. Bailey, behind the bat, used wonderful headwork in out-generaling the heavy hitters of the Marylanders. R. Hamilton led the Marylanders at the bat. D. Hamilton showed up best in the field. Bland Pitches Good Game In the night-cap Bland, a newcomer on the Sox pitching staff, gave a good account of himself, proving that he would be a great help to the Virginia lads. Moore, former shortstop of the Washington Black Sox, played a brilliant game and showed up well at the bat. Liston Wills again led the Virginia lads at the bat. The LeDroit Tigers, with a make shift team, defeated the Rajah A. C. in a double bill by the scores of 14 to 4 and 13 to 6. Keystone Davis convinced the fans that he is still the leading catcher in the District by his wonderful work in both games. The games were full of home runs, Cleo Smith, of the LeDroits, getting three; Dean Johnson, of the Rajahs, two; and Wade Savoy, of Rajahs, and Mace Jefferson, of the Tigers, one each. The batting of "Yellow" Payne, of the Tigers was the feature of the games. "Sonny" Hawkins showed up well on first base for the Tigers. Hillsdales Con Twin Bill The Hillsdales continued their winning by lacing the DePriest A. C. twice and by virtue of their double victory are anchored in third place. Relieving J. Levi in the second inning, behind by the score of 5 to 0, Marion Levi pitched one of the best games of his career, setting the heavy hitters of the DePriest men down when a hit would mean a run, and he wasn't scored on until the ninth inning. "Toots" Brown, Robert Green and "Dick" Temple led the "Dales with the stick, while "Reds" Haywood and "Speed" Johnson shone in the field. Swann and Miller were the bright lights in the play of the DePriest men in the opener. Wheeler Gets Homer In the night cap the work of Temple and Johnson featured the 'Dales' play, aided by the twirling of Alton Carter. Wheeler proved the hero of the DePriestman's playing, getting a home run and a single. Colbert led the northeast lads at the bat, aided by J. Barnes, Miller again starred in the field.

Jim Taylor Seeks Revenge On Pittsburgh Crawfords Jim Taylor doesn't like the way his A.B.C.'s were trounced at Greenlee Field in June. So he has reinforced his outfit and demanded a return engagement. The Crawfords have acceded to the demand and will journey to Indianapolis on Sunday, July 24. BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL THE SPIKED SHOE By THE OBSERVER Chester "Chet" Brewer, cannonball pitching ace, of the Washington Pilots, has been recalled by owner Wilkinson, and is now pitching in the Canadian Northwest. Ben Leroy Taylor, Troupe, J. Bell, constitute the Kansas City Monarehs' new outfield. Frank "Reindeer" Duncan and Young are still doing the bulk of Kansas City's receiving. Frank "Strangler" Forbes is the san Frank who scored the winning run in a hectic pitching battle between Joe Williams and Chalmers in 1915. "Big" Bert Johnson, Manager Frank Warfield's batting behemoth, is striking terror into the hearts of all pitchers by his timely stick work. Willie O'Bryant has stolen more bases than any colored player in the East or West this year. The flashy fielding shortstop, Jacob Dunn, is electrifying the baseball fans by his sure fire fielding stunts. Teamed with Sam Hughes as co-tender of the keystone combination, they represent about as an efficeint combination as one could hope to have. "Uncle" Ben Taylor, of Indianapolis A.B.C.'s, Bacharach Giants, Washington Potomac, Baltimore Black Sox, and the Lincoln Giants, was a colorful performer in his hey-day. He would stroll to the plate with the bases loaded, tooth-pick in his mouth, whistling a popular tune. Nine times out of ten Ben would break up the game with a hard hit ball. Ben Taylor was an adept at protecting a base runner when he was at bat. If the runner was on first or second, Ben always protected the runner, either trying to steal second, or in case the hit and run was on, Ben always executed his part perfectly. "Max Cagey" Eggleston, veteran catching artist of the Pilots, is a backstop of the conversational type. He disconcerts the battier by engaging him in conservation while at the bat. Woe unto the batter who converses with Eggleston when at the bat. The batter is very apt to find himself in quite a hole. The colorful Satchel Paige when pitching for a club engages in conversation with the batter, umpire and spectators, yet he always seems able to get the ball over the plate, no matter where his eyes appear to be.

Tuskegee To Hold Net Tournament On Campus TUSKEGEE, Ala.-Boise Simmons, president of the Tuskegee Institute Y.M.C.A., has organized a campus tournament for the purpose of stimulating interest in tennis among the students. The tournament is arranged especially for beginners and those who have not had a great deal of experience with the game. Contestants are divided into three main divisions, namely: the boys' singles, the junior singles, and the men's singles. The boys' singles include boys from 10 to 15 years old and up to the 8th grade in school. The junior singles include boys from 15 to 18 years and from the first to the third year in high school. The men's singles takes all students from the third year in high school to grown-ups. Simmons stated that there may be added, women's doubles, men's doubles and mixed doubles. Board Of Athletic Control Blames Unconstitutional Ruling PHILADELPHIA Pa.—Lincoln University is definiely out of the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association. Following the suspension of Lincoln by the C.I.A.A., after the adoption of a ruling that Lincoln considered unconstitutional, Lincoln made application for reinstatement, with the understanding that she did not admit the constitutionality of the prohibitory article adopted. The executive committee of the C.I.A.A. met at Hampton in June, but refused to take any action on the application for reinstatement because no representative of Lincoln was present. This was done in spite of the fact that Lincoln promised, in this application for reinstatement, to abide by the rules of the organization. Following this meeting of the C.I.A.A., newspaper articles appeared, over the signature of J. L. Whitehead, secretary-treasurer of the C.I.A.A., which made it appear that conditions were to be imposed on Lincoln that would be humiliating to the extreme. Lincoln indicated to Mr. Whitehead that if the facts contained in the articles sent from his office were true, that she withdrew the application for readmission. Mr. Whitehead then submitted to the authorities at Lincoln, the resolution that specified the conditions on which Lincoln might be readmitted. These were as follows: 1. That Lincoln set up a representative who will speak with authority for the university. 2. That Lincoln send an accredited representative to the meetings. 3. That Lincoln withdraw her objection to the constitutionality of the suspension. 4. If another special meeting is called on behalf of Lincoln, Lincoln is to bear the expenses of such a meeting. 5. That Lincoln give positive assurance that she is willing to abide by the rules of the C.I.A.A. On receipt of this statement, Prof. W. L. Wright, president of the Board of Athletic Control, advised the C.I.A.A. that the application of Lincoln University for reinstatement was withdrawn. The Board of Athletic Control, with practically all members present, met in Philadelphia, Wednesday, July 13, and approved the action of Prof. Wright in withdrawing the application. This means that there will be no football games between Lincoln and any member of the C.I.A.A., and what is most important of all, it means that there will be no Howard-Lincoln Annual Classic, which was scheduled to be held in Washington this year. The failure to play this game will mean a break in the athletic relations that have existed between Howard and Lincoln almost continually for forty years. The Board of Athletic Control also selected Ernest (Spank) Smith as football coach for the ensuing year. Smith was captain and quarterback of last year's team and was very popular with the student body at Lincoln and apparently enjoyed the confidence of both the student body and the faculty. He was awarded the annual prize for the student who contributed most to the athletic life of the university.

As a new departure in cigar advertising, copy and copy alone features the White Owl mes- sage— a frank statement of facts directed at all men who enjoy good cigars. Phe’ big size of the White Owl advertisement, ite prominent posi tion on the sporting page its clean- cut arrangement and its big-type headline, “The Truth About White Owl Cigars”—all combine to catch the eye of even the most casual newspaper glancer. As a spur to stimulate his interest in the copy, sub-caption readj: “If you én- Joy a good cigar, read this frank statement of facts.” A Frank Statement of Facts Straightforward covy presents to the Treader the inside story of White Owl's sensational sales suc- cess—over 425,000,009 White Owls sold the first year at 5-cents, a re- cord that surpasses any ever made by any brand and puts White Owl out front in its fields. In explain- ing the record, the copy shows the innumerable difficulties overcome to give the smoker in White Owl at 5-cents the same identical cigar which for fourteen years had sold for 7-cents and up—in other words, to give him in White Owl at 6- cents the same long invincible shape, ‘the’ same expensive long filler ‘and the same quality which had won for it in fourteen years at higher prices the friendship of millions of men. The copy also reveals the secret of how the Gen- eral Cigar Company, Inc., can manufacture White Owl for 5- cents, the answer lying in four factors: organized production; vast output; the fact that manufactur- er, distributor and dealer net smaller profits on the sale of one cigar; and in the last analysis, in the fact that the consumer, through spontaneous co-operative’ buying, make themselves the beneficiaries of White Owl's price and vast con- sumption. Through reading this frank statement of facts, even the most skeptical smoker ‘can no longer doubt that White Owl at 5-cents is identically the same cigar as the White Owl previously sold at 7- cents and up, for together with the guarantee of the Company goes the proof of, the sales figures— 420,000,000 White Owls at 5 cents sold in'one year. From this evi- dence the septic must realize that millions of men have put White Owl to the smoking test and dis- covered to their satisfaction that the claims made for it are true. A Stimulus for Dealer Sales As has been the aim of all White Owl advertising since its incep- tion, this frank statement of White Own facts aims at increased White Owl sales right at the dealer's counters. “Smoke White Owl because it is top-value in a 5-cent cigar,” the copy tells the smoker, “but never expect your dealer to seel it for less than a nickel. “He cannot afford it, He pays more for White Owl thn for ordi- nary 5 cent cigars. It is sold with- out premiums or prize contests. Big buyer or little buyer, the deal- er should get a full nickel for White Owl. The price to the con- sumer is all in the cigar. “Purehase a few of this unique S-cent cigars, and smoke out the truth of White Owl.” Supported by conssitent White Owl advertising, dealers the coun- try over have seen their White Owl sales increase with the coun- try-wide swing to White Owls at cents. Alert rs report that, by placing the White Owl box on top of the counter, where all eyes can see the White Owls to buy them. they cash in to the fullest possible extent on the White Owl By cooperating with top-of-the- case White Owl display, every dealer can make the most of this timely, unique White Owl frank statement of facts. “If the desler will pat the White Owl! box on top of the counter for a test period of two weeks, he will undoubtedly no- dsicatiat “teertoos in White .. st inn an een Bee | TE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JULY 22, 1932 The Truth about WHITE OWL CIGARS 30 ENTERED IN DL.

[If you enjoy a good cigar, read this frank statement of facts |} Tue executives of the General Cigar Co., Inc., early in 1951 met to consider what was the most important step the company had ever been asked to take. It was proposed to reduce the price of the White Owl cigar, which for fourteen years had sold at 7 cents, and up, to 5 vents. ’ The price reduction was to be made without decreasing the size of the cigar, or changing the tobacco in it. In blunt terms, the proposal meant selling at 5 cents the identical cigar which was then being bought by millions at a higher price. 4 oe cae To speak frankly, there were misgivings among the executives of the company — justifiable and logical misgivings. The White Owl was a long invincible shape. It was a long filler cigar ; not made of scraps and broken leaves, typical of over- size 5-cent cigars. Furthermore, the tobacco in it was the most expensive long filler leaf that this country grows. To market the White Owl exactly as it was, at 5 cents, seemed a manufacturing impossibility. To réduce the size, or take anything out of the quality of the cigar, was not for a minute considered. If this were done, White Owl would be- come merely another 5-Cent cigar, trading for a limited time on the name, popularity, and prestige it enjoyed at higher prices. Weg In the face of facts and figures of produc- tion which said “No”, the executives con- tinued to study the proposal because the underlying principle of the General Cigar Co., Inc., argued for the reduction. Giving the consumer the uémost which can be delivered at a price, and still make a profit for dealer, distributor, and manu- facturer is the basic policy of the company. Its progress and its success have been written in adherence to this principle. After days of analysis of costs of produc- tion, and a far-seeing forecast of results, the executives decided to reduce White Owl to 5 cents, and still manufacture it exactly as it was being made. No economy in buying tobacco aided them. White Owl long filler tobacco had been purchased two and three years before “bey took this critical step. _ But costs of production, of merchandis- ing, and of distributing, were cut by many ngenious efficiencies. The margins of profit of manufacturer and distributor were narrowed. The dealer was to pay more for White Owl than standard 5-cent brands. All were to net less on the sale of one cigar, and gain in- creased ptofit through the rapid turnover of multiplied sales. But basing the decision most of all-on vast output, the executives of the General Cigar Co., Inc., in June, 1931, ordered the reduc- tion of White Owl to 5 cents, Tue mathematical results of White Owl at 5 cents were amazing. Within a month it broke all cigar records for rapid increase of consumption. In one year the White Owls smoked have passed the 425,000,000 mark. Smokers who smoked White Owl at higher prices at once knew it for unmatched smoking value. Smokers of higher priced cigars, turning to it as a real economy, found no let-down in smoking satisfaction, Smokers of standard 5-cent brands flocked to its generous size and fine appearance. Better tobacco will tell, and White Owl told quickly to discriminating smokers. In turn the world saw it in the vast consump- tion of White Owls. Here and there a skeptic could not believe that it was the same 7-cent White Owl being sold at 5 cents, and his skepticism was not so surprising. Though the cigar looked the same, and smoked the same, some men could not but distrust a value which seemed impossible. All the time the guarantee of the General Cigar Co., Inc., backed up their statement that it was the same identical White Owl. Doubt cannot stand up in the faee of qual- ity. White Owl at 5 cents established itself at the cigar case as the same cigar which sold 14 years at 7 cents, and up. If one seeks the secret of how the General Cigar Co., Inc., can manufacture a cigar and sell it at 5 cents, which sold for 14 years at higher prices, the answer lies in organe ized production and vast output. It is explained by the fact that manufacturer, distributor, and dealer all net smaller profit on the sale of one cigar. In the last analysis, the consumers, through their spontaneous co-operative buy- ing, make themselves the beneficiaries of White Owl's price and vast consumption, FEA Smoke White Owl because it is top value m a 5-cent cigar, but never expect your dealer to sell it for /ess than a nickel. He cannot afford it. He pays more for White Ow! than for ordinary 5-cent cigars, It is sold without premiums or prize con- tests. Big buyer or little buyer, the dealer should get a full nickel for White Owl. The price to the consumer is a// in the cigar. Purchase a few of this unique 5-cent cigar, and smoke out the truth of White Owl. Derrek Gar Cr. LeParadis A.C.

FOURTEEN "SOCIETY GIRL AT THE LINCOLN Ability to present crowds, mass movement and lavish backgrounds on a large scale, has always been the screen's advantage over the physical limitations of the stage. A striking illustration of this all-encompassing mobility of the sound camera will be seen in "Society Girl," Fox romantic drama co-featuring James Dunn, Peggy Shannon and Spencer Tracy, coming to the Lincoln Theatre, Friday, for four days. In an early sequence of the picture, wherein Dunn and Miss Shannon are brought together for the initial meeting of their romance, an outdoor boxing exhibition is staged in a garden with more than three hundred guests in attendance. This sequence, incidentally, was filmed in "The Garden of All Nations," a permanent "living stage" made up of growing plants, flowers and trees at Movietone City, a recent innovation in screen production. "Society Girl" relates the romance between a ring hero and a pampered pet of society who thought love was one thing and marriage a matter of social and financial arrangement. Sidney Lanfield directed. Carole Lombard, blonde leading woman of "No One Man," was signed to a new Paramount screen contract recently. Her good fortune was immediately followed by assignment to the leading feminine role in "Sinners in the Sun" which comes to the Lincoln Theatre for three days next week. Co-featuring with Miss Lombard is Chester Morris, former male star of "Corpair." NEW DANCER IN HARLEM A MARCEL WILSON, dainty little dancer who is featured in Dan Heal's Cotton Club Revue, New York.

"What Price Hollywood" is a drama of the world, the flesh and the movies. It lifts the curtain on the lives behind the screen. Concerning itself with an ambitious girl who crashes the studio gates, the plot depicts the spectacular rise of a waitress who enchants a famed director and producer to gain ace ranking on the screen. But this girl pays the price of fame in a city that wants its pound of flesh. One day they threw roses—the next day mud. Constance Bennett gives the outstanding performance of her entire career in this picture. Others in the cast are Lowell Sherman, Neill Hamilton and Gregory Ratoff. Adolphe Menjou in "Bachelor's Affairs," with Joan Marsh and Ninna Gombell will be the feature attraction on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, July 26, 27 and 28.

Ralph Bellamy did not have to rehearse a single scene of "Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm" before he took the tests opposite Marian Nixon that landed him the part. He had portrayed the romantic role of Dr. Adam Ladd, who is Rebecca's sweetheart in the story, many times in various cities of the country while playing leads in stock. "Rebecca' was always a favorite," Bellamy asserted as he worked under Alfred Santell's direction in the present Fox version, "and we always tried to include it in the plays we gave in each city visited.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JULY 22, 1932 INTERESTING AGE STATISTICS FOR THE NEGRO INTERESTING AGE STATISTICS FOR THE NEGRO The Illiterate, School Attendance & Population By Single Years Shown (CNS)—The population of the United States by single years of age, and figures relative to school attendance, and illiteracy by age periods have just been announced by the Director of the Census, as shown by the returns of the Fifteenth Census. In the total Negro population of the United States which increased from 10,463,131 in 1920, to 11,891,143 in 1930, the number of persons returned for each year of age from 1 to 97 was greater in 1930 than in 1920, with the exception of those in the 12 year group, with 263,679 in 1930 as against 274,482 in 1920; and the 47 year group, with 94,389 in 1930 and 95,933 in 1920. The number of Negro persons returned as 98 years of age declined from 556 in 1930 to 624 in 1920; and those in the 99 year group from 319 to 299. Fewer Negro centenarians were reported in 1930 as compared with 1920, the figures being 2,467 in 1930 and 2,935 in 1920. Approximately ten thousand fewer persons were returned with age unknown in 1930, the figures being 13,731 in 1930, and 23,503 in the preceding decade. Of the Negro population between the ages of 5 and 20, numbering 4,128,998, 60 per cent, 2,477,312 were in attendance at schools or colleges sometime between September 1, 1929 and the census date, April 1, 1930. The percentage attending school was greater for each year of age ein 1930 than 1920; and the increases were noticeably higher for all the ages from six to sixteen. This is particularly true of the females who also outnumbered the males at each year of age. At 10 years of age, however, the males and females are nearly equal in number, numbering 125,543 for the former and 125,576 for the latter. For this age group the female attendance increased from 80.0 in 1920 to 91.6 in 1930; and the males from 79.1 in 1920 to 90.3 in 1930. Defining as illiterate any person 19 years of age or over who is not able to read and write, either in English or any other language, the Census Bureau reports 1,531,982 Negro persons, 801,949 males and 711,943 females were returned as illiterate representing 16.3 of 9,292,556 Negro persons 10 years of age or over in the population of the United States on April 1, 1930. The percentage of illiterates for the age group 10 to 15 years was 5.3. Each succeeding age group showed a higher percentage of illiterates. For the older group 65 and over the percentage was 55.1, a decrease from 68.3 in 1920, yet the 1030 percentage was more than three times the percentage for all ages combined. In the urban or city population the percentage of illiteracy for the Negro population was 9.2. With 3,421,512 Negroes 19 years of age and over classed as rural-farm population 794,866, or 23.2 per cent. were shown as illiterate; while of the rural non-farm population numbering 1,573,095, 323, or 20.5 per cent were illiterate.

JULES BLEDSOE, better known as "Old Man River," will be the stage attraction at the Lincoln Theatre, 1215 You Street, Northwest, for one week beginning Friday, July 22. Mr. Bledsoe's voice is one of the most beautiful now heard on the concert stage. It has a breath of quality, comparable only to a fine cello. Jules Bledsoe, was born in Waco, Texas, the son of musical parents; he made his first public appearance at the age of 5 in a Sunday School concert, singing the popular song of that day "Honey Stay In Your Own Back Yard." But he has disregarded the advice of that song, as since that time he left his own back yard far behind, and has thrilled great audiences in most of the world's capitals, and has now come forward to the Nation's Capital to thrill the Washington public. "I HAVE NEVER HAD A REAL VACATION BEFORE" had ever been to a camp been. This shows the changing personnel of the camp guests. One family consisting of father, mother and five children had to be urged to take the vacation greatly, the mother and little ones being very timid about going into the country so far among strangers. It appears that this woman was a poor housekeeper and had few social contacts outside her home, and that the husband and father was illiterate. It took the camp nurses a long time to get the baby of the family really clean, and at least a week to teach the mother how to get the children's clothing clean. Now this same woman has returned to her city home with unbelievable ideas of order and cleanliness. From both camps come the report that all are well and happy, and that the routine of camp life moves along smoothly. PRO DIVISION EVENT OF EVENTS! NIGHT BASEBALL Clark Griffith Stadium 7th and FLA.

Private Hardin M. Lancaster, 38, 134 Delfaelle Place, northwest, is in Garfield Hospital in a critical condition. He was shot in the back, the bullet passing through his chest. Private Byron Moore, 36, of Woodside, Md., is in Freedmen's Hospital with a possible fractured skull and internal injuries, received when he slipped from the roof of a house at 647 Kenyon street, northwest, around the corner from the store. Moore had been assigned there to cut off the burglar's escape. According to police, the burglar entered the drug store through the transom over the front door at about 3 a.m. While he was groping his way among the show cases an alarm was sent to the 10th Precinct. A squad answered the call. Lancaster posted himself at the rear door and was wounded during an exchange of shots between police and the burglar. Bullets flew in several directions and it was impossible to determine whether Lancaster was shot by the prowler or by another policeman. From his position at the rear and the fact that he was shot in the back, the theory that he was wounded by one of his comrades was held the most probable. The burglar stole $2 from the cash register and a small quantity of cigarettes. Police made the rounds of the local hospitals but no man answer- DAILY NEEDS.. 35c Gem Blades, 27c 5's..... 50c Gillette Blades, 40c 5's..... $1 Probak Blades, 79c 10's.....

CHICAGO (Special to the Tribune)—Closing arguments in the trial of Jesse Binga, 67-year-old former president of the Binga State Bank, were expected to place the case in the hands of a jury late Monday. The arguments were started af- THE NOTHING GIVES SO MUCH FOR SO LITTLE 723 te" Judge John Prystalski in the C. General Court had denied a motion for a directed verdict of not guilty. Three days spent for the defense on motions to aid the ex-banker and realtor aided his case but little and the defense rested without a single witness taking the stand. Motions to strike out the State's testimony about $39,131.50 which Binga is alleged to have embezzled and to declare a mistrial because of technicalities were overruled by the court. The State presented testimony of nearly a hundred witnesses. Directors of the bank several years ago talked of opening a national bank and interested persons deposited money, in anticipation of issuance of stock in the new venture. Binga is charged with having embezzled part of this money. He faces a sentence of from one to ten years in the pentiary if found guilty. The former banker is represented by Attorney John Cashen, Jr. The State holds that purchasers of stock had a right to believe the Binga bank was receiving the money because they obtained bank forms and receipts. The defense contends that the money was never a part of the customers is the keynote of our success in business. The telephone plays a most important part in this success. It enables us to be of immediate service to the bereaved at a moment's notice.

Smith, who delivered the welcome address and introduced Truly Hatchett, of Baltimore, the regional educational director, who presided. The Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson was present and delivered a short address. The Grand Secretary, James Kelly, of Birmingham, Ala., was also on the platform and spoke. Others appearing on the program were Miss Ida Cummings, of Baltimore, who responded to the welcome address. Clarence Clavers, jr., of Baltimore, a former scholarship winner and now a graduate of Dartmouth, who went through college on an Elk scholarship. W. C. Hueston, commissioner of Education was present and in addition to speaking of the contests and work of his department, he made a telling address on the Negroes saving the Prudential Bank. Perry W. Howard, national Republican Committeeman of Mississippi, and grand legal advisor of the Elks was present and also spoke on the Prudential Bank. He made a powerful address e W. H. C. BROWN, president of Industrial Savings Bank, who stood loyally by The Prudential Bank in its crisis. Among other things he stated: "First, that he was neither an officer, director nor a stockholder in the bank, and was speaking only as a depositor and advisor. "Second, that he had found that the run on the bank was due to the mistake of certain business houses downtown including the Prudential Bank among those banks that had recently closed, when, in truth and in fact, the Prudential Bank was running on in its normal way. "Third, as a matter of good business and sound common sense, depositors should not attempt to withdraw their deposits which would result in the Comptroller closing the bank, but leave their money in the bank and let it go ahead doing business in the regular way. "Fourth, that there is not a bank in the city that can withstand a heavy run. "Fifth, that the colored population of Washington is sufficiently large to support two banks and two newspapers. "Sixth, that in proportion to their resources and liabilities, our colored banks are just as strong as any others when properly supported. "Seventh, that there are already too many of our colored corporations or enterprises going into the hands of receivers and the record is that they never come out. "Eighth, that if we are ever going to get anywhere we must get behind Negro business of every kind and if it should go wrong and fall in the hands of Negroes we can at least have the consolation that at least our sons and daughters can marry some of them. "Then let us rally and have larger stores, newspapers, laundries, business of every kind manned and owned by Negroes." PRUDENTIAL BANK (Continued from page 1) up with the comptroller, who granted the request. A mass meeting was held Friday night at Mt. Carmel Baptist Church. John R. Hawkins, president of the Prudential, opened the meeting, giving the facts in the case. Rev. W. H. Jernagin followed with a fighting speech that put pep into the audience. Perry W. Howard spoke along the same line, and President Hawkins asked depositors present to sign waivers which stated they would not withdraw over 10 per cent of their amounts then in the bank within 30 days. More than $80,000 was subscribed to that night, and on Saturday the amount passed the hundred thousand dollar mark. The Washington Tribune placed an extra on the streets, Saturday at 3 o'clock, reporting the meeting Friday night, and appealing through its editorial columns to the Negroes of Washington to rally solidly to the Prudential Bank and save it. This proved to be an inspiration and was a big factor in restoring calm and normalcy. Ministers Help Various ministers of the city counselled their congregations to get behind the Prudential Bank and save it to the race. Judge W. C. Hueston and Perry W. Howard spoke, Sunday, at the big Elk meeting at Howard Theatre, imploring confidence in the management of the Prudential under the direction of Dr. John R. Hawkins and his directors. Mr. Howard spoke at Asbury M. E. Church, following their 11 o'clock service along the same line. The crisis was reached and passed Saturday. President Hawkins made a public statement to the people then in the lobby of the Prudential Bank. He said: "The Prudential Bank is still open and will open at the regular time Monday morning." Continuing, he said SEVENTH & Q STS., N.

They have gone feeling that the situation did not warrant the closing of the bank." The securing of the waivers from the 'depositors was the turning point for the examiners, and they left encouraged, believing the Negroes of Washington would redeem the bank. Monday morning, the tenseness had gone and ere the day closed, the depositors ran more than $10,000 over the withdrawals.

D. Johnston, former secretary of the company at the time of the most of the Ovarton manipulation, and at present budget director in the treasurer's office at Howard University, Washington, made certain allegations, which, when compared to his former statements and actions brand him as one of the year's most accomplished confidence men. Take a look at this: "First, he states that he is the owner of 288 shares of Victory Life stick...." "The Victory Life stock records as of May 1, 1932, show V. D. Johnston as the owner of 12 shares. The records also show that the stock has been oversold by Mr. Overton to the extent of over 1,800 shares. Where did Johnston get his additional 276 shares?" "A year ago, when the existence of the company was threatened he could have assisted the directors in removing part of the $31,000.00 in personal collateral loans made by Mr. Overton by buying extra shares, he pleaded, not only was he unable financially, but that he wasn't satisfied with the manner in which his 'chief' Overton, was handling the money of the company. The following statement was in a letter sent to me by M. Johnston, June 15, 1931. . . "It is my opinion and I told the person concerned at the time that if the Insurance Department knew that the Victory Life Insurance Company had made such absolutely unsecured loans to its chief officer (Overton) for his personal advantage, they would make him pay back this money if it were necessary to attach home and all other property that he might have. There is no justification for the desire now to get out from under the responsibility for the money that has been improperly invested, and it does not appear to me that I should sacrifice my long delayed plans to own a home of my own in order to continue the advancement of such plans as these. If our chief officer showed any desire or concern to sacrifice his own immediate advantage for the benefit of the Victory Life Insurance Company I would be more than happy to follow his example." Why, now, one year later, can it be advantageous for this same Johnston to acquire 276 additional shares of this same stock that he could not use then? "I felicitate him on his improved financial status which enabled him to acquire this block of stock, but also to make two trips to Chicago in the course of a month, and to engage a good firm of attorneys to obtain the receivership for Victory Life Insurance Company. "Second, he accuses Stamps, Shaw and Savory of seeking to secure control of the company through a voting trust. "This is a deliberate misstatement of facts. The stockholders are being organized into a Voting Trust in which there are seven (7) voting trustees. The purpose of the trust is placing of control of the company in the hands of a majority of the stockholders' instead of in the hands of one man. Anthony Overton, inasmuch as the States of New York and New Jersey suspended the company partly on account of this one man, Overton, rule. It is perfectly obvious that the voting trust is sensible and was trying to save the company from the rapacious and insatiable reed of a very few. "Third: The 'solicitus' Mr. Johnston, now posing as a 'saviour' has attempted to blame Stamps, Shaw and Savory for some of the conditions existing in the company, but many thanks to an all wise Providence the examiners' report substantiated every charge made and stated in the final paragraphs of the report: "that the present condition of the company has been largely brought about through the affairs of the company having been so closely allied with the affairs of the Douglas Nationai bank," also that the 'closing of the bank has been prolonged for an unusual long time considering the fact that the Victory Life had given its financial assistance to meet the heavy withdrawals on deposits. "Finally: Mr. Johnston needs to explain the following facts: "Why did he refuse to inform the directors of the many manipulations of Mr. Overton which he knew about while secretary of the company? and according to his successor kept the correspondence from the various departments hidden from the directors as if it were a secret. "As secretary of the Victory Underwriters Company he advised delinquent stock subscribers that failure to finish paying their subscriptions would cause a forfeiture of all money paid and the stock resold, yet according to the examiners' report 'the company continued to accept payments from the original subscribers.' because of this action there is a great number of subscribers, and some have have paid in full, and have received neither stock nor a return of their THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JULY 22, 1932 money. Yet, when he left the employ of the company he demanded a refund of less than $1,000 which he had paid on his own stock subscription even though he had received an increase in salary in order to buy the stock. "This is a picture of the Mr. Johnston who is now so concerned about saving the policyholders of the company, and while as secretary of the Victory Life Insurance Company and the Victory Underwriters Company, he handled matters so efficiently that the examiners stated 'it is impossible to check on the actual amount collected from all subscribers (of stock) since the company's inception and that 'numerous irregularities exist and have existed since the organization of the company and the capital stock account has never been in balance.'

KILLS WIFE & MOTHER (Continued from page 1) after inquiring for her was admitted to her room. During an argument he said he shot her, and when Mrs. Plummer came in the room he opened fire on her. He denied firing a shot at Riley. Wife Shot Through Heart Mrs. Bolden died instantly from a bullet wound in the heart and lungs. Her mother was pronounced dead about an hour later at Emergency Hospital. According to the testimony of Charles E. Plummer, husband and father of the dead women, he was in his room smoking at the time his son-in-law came in. He said he paid little attention to him as he went into a front room where his daughter was. After Bolden had been in the house a short time Plummer said he heard a chair move and two shots. At that moment Mrs. Plummer ran from the bedroom of her husband into the room where her daughter and son-in-law were. As she entered the door Plummer said he had retired for the night, and by the time he put on his trousers and reached the steps he saw Bolden going out of the door. He gave chase, but the younger man reached him. Dr. Thomas Bradley, of Emergency Hospital staff, said he treated the mother for a gun shot wound in the head that had destroyed the left eye. The woman died soon after being admitted. Milton Riley, son of Mrs. Plummer, said when he came into the house after the shooting, he picked his mother up and spoke to her, but she could not answer. Eddie Riley, another son of the dead woman, said he was in bed at the time of the shooting and when he came to the door of his room Bolden fired a shot at him. The bullet struck the bed post and fell on the bed, where it was found by officers. Girl Denies Selling Liquor Dorothy Bonnepart denied she sold the whiskey to Bolden, but said he came to her house and told her that he was an am- rison Jones to purchase the liquor from a speakeasy. The two drank the whiskey, and then left, the girl testified. In his statement to Lieut. J. J. Bourke, of No. 7 Precinct, Bolden said after the shooting he threw the gun into the Potomac River from Key Bridge. The revolver was not located by police. Following an inquest at the District Morgue, Monday morning, Bolden was held for the action of the grand jury. FIELDS Emergency SALE! We Are Overstocked Quick Action Demanded!

A special grand jury changed the indictment from first to second degree murder. All the men pleaded not guilty when arraigned and were held on bond of $5,000 each. The sixth person held, Lawrence L.

He hasn't changed one iota in appearance. We don't know whether it was the salt air he absorbed when he was on board the good old Yoemite, or whether it comes from long association with the diplomats and aristocrats of the Capital City of these United States. Anyway he is the same old George Young, debonair and effetto East."

SOUTH EAST HOUSE SNAP SHOTS "The Little House With a Big Pursue" Mr. Levington Smith, who is very popular in musical circles, is directing music at the Southeast House Activity School. Last year Mr. Smith trained the boys of the Skylark Club for a special broadcasting program over the Community Chest Hour. He has been interested in developing the music program at this enter and he will direct the winter's music program. Mr. Smith is an unusual teacher and has been most successful with his group in the Activity School. He has discovered some real talent among South East children and he is planning to present them in special numbers on the closing program. Last Saturday, Mr. Arthur O. Waller and Mr. Robert Thompson hiked to Camp Pleasant with a group of South East boys. The group was welcomed by Mr. and Mrs. Edward Lovett, who are directing the activities at Camp Pleasant. A lively baseball game and a dip in the "ole swimmin' hole" made the day a most enjoyable one. The group enjoyed the hospitality at Camp Pleasant. The Misses Ferguson and Stevens, who direct the kindergarten activities, and Miss Laura Lee, Summer Nursery School director, took a party of thirty-five little children on a delightful picnic to Rock Creek Park last Friday. Mrs. Louise Lee took a group of forty girls on a long bus ride last week. The weekly bus rides are made possible by special arrangements with Mr. Beaver, president of the Try-Me Cab Co. Mr. Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of colored schools, and Mr. Lewis, director of summer and night schools, made a surprise visit to the Activity School, last week. Both of these educators were very much pleased with the organization of the Activity School, and both took a real interest in the various activities. The work of four special art students under Miss Lois Jones, director, has attracted much favorable comment from the many visitors. All of these students are members of the Winter Arts and Crafts Club at South East House. Maurice Butler, of Armstrong High School; Evelyn Sims and Bernice Hudson, at Dunbar High School; and Emma Lemmon, of Randall Junior High School are the students whom Miss Jones hopes to develop into real artists. The Work Shop, under Mr. Talbert's direction, is indeed a very busy place. The boys are busily engaged in making many useful articles. One of the directors of the Miner Fund observed each activity and was very well impressed with the program. Visitors are always welcome at South East House between the hours of 9:30 and 12 every day. The second session of the South East House Activity School is well under way. The purpose of the Activity School is to offer interesting activities to the children in the community who do not have to attend the Summer Review School. The project is carried on at Giddings School, which is located next door to South East House. Last year the Activity School was financed by South East House from Community Chest - Funds. This year a special grant from the Miner Fund plus co-operation from the public school system makes the second session possible. Mr. Garnet C. Wilkinson, superintendent of colored schools, and Mr. Lewis, director of night and summer schools, both saw the educational value of the Activity School project and established a precedent by loaning equipment and furnishing salaries for three of the teachers on the Activity School staff. The teachers financed by the school system and assigned to Giddings School to co-operate with the South East House Activity program are: Miss Gertrude McBrown, a graduate of Emerson College of Oratory and Boston University (M.Ed.) is teaching oral English and expression. For the past two years Miss McBrown has been closely associated with the work at South East House. She is developing a children's theatre movement and has done some outstanding work with South East House children in creative literature. Mr. Melvin Fox is assisting Miss McBrown.

NEWS There is plenty of money somewhere. A large number of people haven't felt the first twinge of depression. They live as they have always done with all the comforts, and a good sprinkling of luxuries thrown in. If only some of these good friends could hear some of the distressing stories that are brought to us, we feel sure they too would be willing to do their bit and would gladly disturb the "nest egg" to the extent of adding comfort and cheer to the girls who have planned to go to camp this summer. The season has been shortened from eight weeks to six for economy's sake. All genuine Washingtonians have sufficient pride to wish the Clarissa Scott Camp to be the very finest owned by our group of its type, not only in this section of the country, but any place. Very often the evenings are extremely cold. It is then a big fire place would be the most welcome addition one could possibly make. Then again, a weenie, corn or marshmallow roast in the out-door oven is such a joy. Now after these timely hints, is there one among you who read this, who would thoroughly enjoy making a contribution of this sort to the camp? The adults are invited this year. Special arrangements are to be made. They of course will not be required to take part in the girls' program, but this offers an opportunity for an outing where one can get the full benefit of the ocean baths and breezes. Among the guests this week we notice the name of Miss Swilla La Mar, of Los Angeles. She has a most interesting story to relate, being a correspondent for one of the largest newspapers in California, on behalf of the bonus men. We also see Mrs. Charlotte Dett's name, mother of H. L. Nathaniel Dett, the noted musician of Rochester, N.Y., famous as the conductor of the Hampton choir, and who toured Europe and presented his choir before His Majesty King George. Mrs. H. L. McCrorey, of Charlotte, N.C., is with us again; an old friend of the "Y". Other guests are Mrs. Senia Thomas, of Pittsburgh; Mrs. Gertrude C. Martin, Mrs. Maggie Gardner, Miss Ruth Gardner, of Indianapolis, Ind., and Mrs. Maude E. Smith, of Chicago. The "Stay-at-Home" Camp is in full fling. Registrations are still being accepted. It would have gladdened your heart to have been at the community sing last Saturday from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. Music gladdens the heart. Come in and be happy for an hour at least on Saturday night of this week. The secretary of the Industrial and Business Department is in the office Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, 7:30 to 9:30, to meet all who are interested in clubs and various adult activities. The Avalon Club is planning to hold its annual outing next month. Date and place to be announced later. The Y.W.C.A. Emergency Committee, Miss A. Eliza Bell, chairman, will give its first entertainment, Tuesday, August 16, on the beautiful lawn of the "Y". The Garden Festival will have as a special feature a cotton dress fashion review.

This action by the department stores has been ‘termed as discriminatory and well- nigh criminal by the directors of the bank, who held a special meet ing today for the purpose of adopt- ing the correct measures neces- sary to allay the needless alarm: Nearly Criminal ‘The action of the department stores of listing certain banks from which checks should not be re ceived was based upon several banks failures which created an un- settled public atmosphere and made the failure of weaker banks a pros- pect, The failing banks were ‘white banks which were not finan- cially sound. The conditon of the weaker banks was apparent from the published statements - of all ‘banks within the past thirty days. ‘The financial revorts of the Negro banks, the Industrial and the Pray dential, showed them to be in sound condition. Still the depart tment stores could not afford to miss the ‘opportunity of including the names of two Negro banks in their list of banks to be shunned in their business transactions, Prejudice ¥ The names. of the stores taking this unfavorable attitude toward Negro banks are well-known to those Negroes who would patronize the establishments that would s0- Ticit “white trade only.” Not de- siring colored trade they are only too glad to stigmatize the Negro patron or his Negro institutions. ‘The insulted customers who were zesponsible for the thant upon the Prudential should know whom to ‘Blame for such 2 condition, say the directors of the bank. They should lame only the racial prejudice of the ultra-elite downtown stores. They call upon the'Negro to face the situation with his eyes open, to rally to the gopport of the Pru- dential Bank and not be ¢arried away by the hysteria of false rumor. BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL In the interest of the Prudential Bank about which an unfortunate and misleading rumor caused a restlessness in the community, the President and Directors of the Bank issued a call for a special meeting of the stockholders, de- positors and friends of the bank at Mount Carmel Baptist Church, Third and Eye streets, northwest, Friday night at 9 o'clock, President Hawkins opened the meeting by making a full, frank and clear statement of the condi- tion of the Bank as to assets and liabilities and appealed to the audi- ence to go on record as to their attitude, ‘There was evidence of a deter mination on the part of those present to rally to the support of the bank and*counteract the ten- dency of some to withdraw funds by signing pledges to the effect that they would not withdraw more than ten per cent of the balance of funds to their eredit in said Bank within the next thirty days. New Business Promised The most inspiring part of the meeting was the voluntary, spon- taneous, practically unanimous, as- surance for new business as num- bers promised to ‘go to the Bank and bring funds to make deposits in the Bank rather than to with- draw any funds.

Hleventh and You Streets, N.W. = . IS BURROUGHS HOUSING ONL RE PORT PRINTED ‘The results of a nation-wide sur- vey of Negro housing, which leaves no doubt that it is at present im- possible for the majority of Amer- ica’s 12,000,000 Negro citizens to dwellings meeting minimum stan- dards of sanitation and privacy, compose the sixth volume to ap- pear of the final reports of the President’s Conference on Home Building and Home Ownership. The volume places the major share of the blame for this condition at the door of our antiquated housing practices. Althovgh special ra- cial factors are recognized as con- tributing causes, ‘the _ principal cause of the Negro’s housing diffi- culties is found to be that there is never enough housing of accept- able quality for America’s low-in- come groups. Consequently, the first step proposed as_a remedy for the Negro’s situation is the estab- lishment of a minimum ‘standard of housing) below which no dwell ing shall,be permitted to fall, and the supplying of enough low-priced dwellings meeting ,that standard for all wage earners. As the matter is phrased in a foreword to the volume by Secre- tary Lamont, of the Department of Commerce, the solution “is. to reorganize our, practices in the planning and production of all housing. When cities are planned in neighborhood units, there: will be no dwellings backed up against stock yards or railroad tracks. When proper . zoning regulations are enforced it will be impossible to crowd houses on the land and to crowd people in houses. When minimum standards fo r housing are established and enforced in all our. cities. and housing meeting those’ standards is made available for all_people in. the low-income groups—by reduction in the cost of construction and home-financing, by the co-operation of private ini- tiative and government .in slum clearance and rebuilding, by exten- sive reconditioning and remodeling of existing dwellings, and by the many other means proposed by the conference—when these things are accomplished the insanitary over- crowding typical of Negro quarters in our cities will be a thing of the past.” Practical Steps ‘The practical steps necessary to bring about such a transformation THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JOLY 22.1 in American’ housing were-detailed by the President's Conference: 3 its meeting’ in Washington tast D collier, They are gow being mide generally availabie through the publication of the final reports. of the Conference in. eleven volumes, of which the present volume on Negro Housing. forms one. The authors of this volumé “were 2 committee of. representative : civic leaders. of the Negro. race, of which Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, pres- ident of the National. Training School for Women and Girls, Wash- ington, D,C.,-.was chairman, and Charles 8. Johnson, (director of the Department of Social Science, Fisk University, Nashville, was secre- tary. ‘ The volume points out that the heavy ‘migration of rural Negroes to cities has greatly intensified the social problems. connected . with housing. In New York City, alone the Negro population increased from 91,709 in 1910 to 327,709 in 1930. ‘This rapid increase has not been accompanied by a correspond- ing expansion of Negro neighbor- hoods. The result is serious’ over- crowding. An illustration is found in’ Philadelphia, where ‘the density of the Negro population is nearly five times as great as the densit for the city as a whole, The Ne- gro is powerless to help this over- crowding. His low income permits him no choiee of homes, and racial factors make it difficult for him to move out of these restricted areas even when he can afford to. Insufficient. housing causes high rents. The volume quotes. a_study to show that the average rental per room for housing of jow-income groups in. New York .is $6.67, whereas for Negroes it is $9.50. Low. income and high rents force mothers to work and lead to the taking of lodgers, which in. turn increases overcrowding and re- duces family privacy, with -conse- quent evil effects. Forty per cent of the Negro one-family households in a part of Chicago in 1925 were found to be taking in lodgers. . Dilapidated Houses The areas into which eee move are usually old and the hous- es dilapidated, A study of Negro housing in Richmond, Va., showed that “at least half of the dwellings are in various stages gf dilapida- tion; that less. than one’ of every eight houses has: plumbing facili- ties inside the house; that but one in three has a water connection inside the, house; and that 14 per cent have neither Kitchen, nor btahroom.” The greater the isola- tion of Negro sections, says. the report, the. greater the neglect of them by municipalities so that they are generally inadequately served by, public utilities. The volume emphasizes the hard- ship worked by the fact that Ne- gro families are often squeezed in- to areas that are not. adequate in size nor. in variety of accommoda- tions for their needs. Perhaps the worst aspect of this situation is that. it forces Negroes of all tastes and economic ably into an asso- ciation which is neither natural nor generally wholesome. Factual material on: all. aspects of Negro housing*are presented in this volume, The effec of Negro residence on property: values, the relation-of Negro occupancy, to. de- preciation, segregation, the growth of home ownership amang Negroes, the special difficulties of home-fi- nancing, encountered by Negroes, Negroes as credit rigks,’and- spe- cial housing projects for Negroes are all discussed in details In an introduction the editors, Dr. John M. Gries, and Dr. James Ford, de- scribe the volume as “the most comprehensive and valuable docu- ment on Negro Housing that has been sissued oy to this time.” The five volumes of the «Presi- dent’s Conference reports that, have already Appeared are: Planning for ee peas ct Fi- nance and Taxation; Slums, Large- Scale “Housing “and Tereticaisn: tion; House Betign, Vons-rae ten and’ Equipment; Household: Man. agement and Kitchens. ° Five more volumes are: to appear-in’ the neat future. ‘The volumes. can. -be “pur. chased for.$1.15 each postpaid from Dr. James Ford, editor, President's Conference on Home Building and Home yeep.

Acting under instructions the driver refused the check. Naturally the. -Prudential’ de- positor became excited. She told the world. In a few minutes and out of a clear sky a storm broke. ‘The run was, on, and had it not been for: the sagacious prompt and hearty co-operation of the pulpit ‘and press the Prudential Bank could not have stemmed the tide, Men and women, in all walks of life, with deposits ranging from one to, many thousands of dollars rushed to the bank, filled every available space therein, and oypr- flowed into the street. The bank officials were dumb- founded, but dauntless. They did not know that their solvent bank thad_been “black listed.” But it ‘was’ evident that something had happened and a real-run was on, james says in his general epistle, “Behold, how great a matter a lit- tle fire kindleth.” ‘A Dangerous Gesture That little list of little banks came very nearly starting a con- flagration that would have wiped a solvent bank out of existence. Had such a tragedy occurred, all "Negro businesses in the District of Columbia would haye been set back fifty years, and those throughout the country would have received another jar. The race has suffered enough aetbacks. from inadvertent, or pernicious acts perpetrated up- on it by thoughtless or designing people. . Last week's stand shows that red-blooded, honest Negroes are not going to retreat another inch because they realize that, re- treat means death in such a crisis. ‘They are not going to desert. or wreck their own enterprises. On that rock may they stand forever. The Negro is thinking and the everyday Negro is out-thinking the thinkers. He. is the one who al- ways crosses the line and defends the Alamo in a crisis, He crossed it last week. God bless him. With tears in his eyes, deter- mination on his face, courage in his heart, and confidence in his at- titude, he stopped, stood, listened and decided to “tarry by the stuff.” Every Negro who realizes what the race is up against said in_his heart, “Oh, God, we thank Thee for the faith of the everyday peo- ple—the faith that does not shrink though pressed by subtle foes. That does not tremble on the brink of these ungodly woes.” Jn passing may we remind you that these are not common people. Hush! The voiee that dubs them thus. The everyday people are made out ‘of the gold dust of heav- en. The common people of earth are the soulless snobs who, are a worse prey on the race than any horse leech. ‘The everyday people are the salt of the earth. May their tribe increase. This ix no blarney; this is the whole truth. Many of our dependable leaders knew that the bank was solvent, otherwise the examiner would have closed it. They knew that the peo- ple did inot have the least desire fo-wreck' their own institution. ‘They knew that somehow the peo- Je had: been misinformed.

They urged their people to stand by the bank, ‘Team Work Marvelous Team work and confidence like that will not only save the Pru- dential Bank, but it fires our white friends to help us (and remember we will have them, and have them more abundant if we fight through ina crisis), creates respect of man- kind everywhere. and gives God a grand and glorious chance to prove the truth of Isaiah's prophecy, when he declared that “a good man shall be likened unto a rock in a weary land and a shelter in the time of storm.” Small banks ably directed have necessary protection and backing that makes them safe ani sound.

It is not necessary to remind even a wayfaring man that the whole nation is facing a long eco- nomic seige, If the Negro sur- vives it will be only in proportion as he conserves and develops ev- erything that he has built up, and at the same time win, on actual merit, a more secure place in ev- erything that is being built up for the benefit of the whole people, Don't Shut Up Any financial institution that we shut up now is going to remain shut up for the next two or three generations. At this time and in our economic plight when we are being shut out of everything, is not the time for us to shut’ uy anything. It is the time for us to open up everything.

FRAZIER This food page is conducted with the intent of offering recipes that have been tried and found to be wholesome, quickly prepared, and economical. You are invited to send in your favorite recipe. FRUIT JUICES FOR COLD WEATHER Put up fruit juices now for use next winter—for beverages, gelatin desserts, pudding sauces, or sherbets. Their flavor will be appreciated in the cold weather months, as will also the quick-energy value of the sugar which is used so liberally in preserving them. Try these recipes this year and they will wile favorites with you always: **Blueberry Juice** Add sufficient cold water to the berries to allow them to float. Simmer them slowly until they lose their shape. Strain off the juice as for jelly. Measure the juice and heat it. To each quart add one cup sugar. Boll for five minutes. Skim. Seal in hot, clean bottles or jars. Rhubarb juice is particularly valuable for fruit beverages, and for combining with other fruit juices to lend tartness to jellies. It is also good for jellied desserts and pudding sauces. It may be prepared from the stalks that have become too tough to cook in other ways. Cut the rhubarb in small pieces, add just enough water to cover and simmer until very soft. Strain the juice through a jelly bag. To each quart of juice add two cups sugar. Heat until the sugar is dissolved. Skim. Bring to the boiling point. Seal in clean, hot jars or bottles. As all good cooks know, the final excellence of a dinner is measured by the dessert. A variety of inviting desserts, which will appeal to every member of the family is a necessity in the housewife's recipe box. Coffee, used as a flavoring, adds a satisfying, not-too-rich touch. Here are two easily prepared puddings which will lend distinction to a meal: **Arabian Pudding** Five tablespoon butter, 1 cup light brown sugar, 3 egg yolks, % cup cold strong coffee, % teaspoon vanilla, 1 dozen lady fingers. Cream the butter, and sugar gradually, and then the egg yolks. Add coffee and vanilla drop by drop (if coffee is added quickly the mixture will curdle). Place 2 or 3 lady fingers in parfait or sorbet glass and cover with coffee mixture, then set in ice box for 3 hours. Coffee Bavarian Cream One tablespoon gelatin, 1/4 cup cold water, 1 pint whipping cream, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/2 cup strong boiled coffee, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, a pinch of salt. Soak gelatine in cold water 5 minutes. Dissolve in hot coffee, then add sugar. Set bowl containing What's all this about Rating MILK? You can fool some of the people some of the time, etc." . . . but the facts and the figures speak for themselves! Of the five largest dairies in the District, Chestnut Farms Dairy for the past ten years and five months, with the exception of three months, has consecutively received each month the highest general rating awarded by the District of Columbia Health Department! The perfection mark is 100. Chestnut Farms has averaged, in the past 125 months, a score of 96.97! Our nearest competitor for this same period has a score of 94.17. What better proof of superiority could you ask? Blueberry Juice mixture in pan of cold water and stir until it begins to thicken. Add cream, beaten until stiff, and flavoring. Turn into wet mold and chill. SOME COOL DRINKS Beat 2 cups currant jelly to a froth. Add 1 pint boiling water and 1/4 cup sugar. Cook gently until the jelly and sugar are dissolved. Set aside to cool and when cold add the juice of 2 lemons, dilute with cold water, pour into glasses of crushed ice, and garnish with slices of cucumber peel cut very thin. Grape Juice Lemonade Mix lemon juice with other ingredients. Turn into pitcher half filled with ice, and stir thoroughly. Let stand ten minutes before serving. Ginger Sorbet ½ pound candied ginger 2 quarts water 2 cups sugar 1 cup lemon juice Juice of 4 oranges Crushed ice or ice water Chop the ginger fine, add it to the water and sugar and boil for fifteen minutes. Cool and add water to make ten cups of liquid. Add the fruit juices and serve in glasses half filled with crushed ice, or diluted with ice water. Pineapple Fig Cheese Ribbon Salad 2 bunches water cress or 1 bunch endive 1 No. 2 can sliced pineapple 2 individual jars figs 1 dozen rine olives Pink and green coloring Dressing ½ pint French Dressing— ¼ pint Mayonnaise. Cover a dainty plate with fresh water cress or endive; on this lay a slice of pineapple. Fill hole in pineapple with little ribbons of ripe olives. On top of these olives set a preserved fig with stem end up. Take 2 cakes cream cheese. Color $ \frac{1}{4} $ a pale pink, $ \frac{1}{4} $ a pale green, and leave $ \frac{1}{4} $ natural. With a decorative tube, one side of which is plain, the other side notched, pipe across the top of the pineapple in four ways, coming from base of the fig, overlapping ribbons of the green, pink and white cheese, letting ribbons extend out on the cress. Then using small tube, make a ring of tiny rosettes around base of fig, one ring of white, one of green, and one of pink to match overlapping l this abo Rati Currant Punch ribbons. The color combination is lovely and it is as good as it looks. With this I serve either some good French Dressing, or, if I want a sweet salad, I make a Chantilly Dressing, using mayonnaise and whipped together. Either one is good—just a matter of taste. FUNERAL RITES FOR AUTO VICTIM HELD Funeral rites for Martha Mosley, for 39 years a resident of the District, who was almost instantly killed in an automobile accident here Friday, were held Monday from the Mount Airy Baptist Church, with Rev.

Hampton Professor Studies C.M.A. NEW YORK, July 21—Professor Charles H. Welch, professor of Merchandising at the Hampton School of Business, Hampton Institute, Va., has just completed a month's study of the C.M.A. stores and their operation in Harlem, and observations at the national office of C.M.A. Prof. Welch came to New York at the request of President Arthur Howe, of Hampton to get first hand information on C.M.A. s., he can inspire his students with a greater enthusiasm for business and to give them a more practical approach to their class room theories. Camp Buy C.M.A. Products NEW YORK, July 21—Camp Guilford Bower at New Paltz, N.Y., which is owned by the St. Philip's Church in Harlem and is managed by the Rev. S. H. Bishop, after receiving bids from several well known New York grocery firms, accepted the bid of the National C.M.A. Stores to supply all groceries to the camp this summer. After accepting the C.M. A. bid the camp director said C.M.A. had by far underbid the other competitors, and that the director was satisfied that C.M.A. products were of the highest quality, even though their prices were below the other competitors. The C.M.A. truck has already delivered a large supply of groceries to the camp. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JULY 22, 1932 BANBURY CROSS TARTS ARE GOOD Here is the recipe for Banbury Cross tarts. Start the tarts by making up a rather rich pastry. Use three-quarters of a cup of cold shortening to two cups of self-rising flour. No baking powder or salt is needed as these are already in the flour. For best results, use a high grade flour. You will find that a high grade self-rising flour is much cheaper than a low grade plain flour, because less shortening is required and there is no baking powder to buy. Preleavefrown flour also saves innumerable siftings. Sift only once, before measuring. Cut the shortening in with a knife or pastry blend until it resembles coarse corn-meal. Add as little cold water as necessary to make a dough. Chill or, preferably, wrap in waxed paper and chill overnight. Then roll the pastry out thin and cut in four-inch squares. Combine one cup of chopped seeded raisins, 1 cup of sugar, the juice and pulp of a lemon, 4 tablespoonful of cracker crumbs and a well-beaten egg. Put a spoonful of this paste in the center of each piece of crust. Moisten the edges with unbeaten egg, fold over and pinch the edges well together. Brush the outside with cream and bake in a slow oven (300° F.) until a golden brown. And there you have Banbury tarts. If you are looking for something out of the ordinary to serve with appetizers, soups or salads, try these dainty little cheese straws, which also are made with self-rising flour: Cheese Straws ½ teaspoon paprika Dash of cayenne pepper Cold water to make a stiff dough Sift and measure the flour; add the cheese and fat; rub them into the flour; add paprika and cayenne. Make a stiff dough by adding water a little at a time. Roll the pastry ¾ inch thick; cut into strips ¾ inch wide by 5 inches long, using a pastry jagger or a sharp knife. Place the strips on a baking sheet in even rows, and bake in a hot oven (425° F.) until a delicate brown about 15 minutes. Virginia Gibson, Savannah Tribune. PURE WHITE ROLLS Put into a mixing bowl 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 tablespoon of salt, 1 heaping tablespoon of lard and 1 butter; cream together thoroughly. Dissolve 1 Fleishman's yeast cake in a cup of warm water, pour into other mixture and add 2 tea cups of sweet milk. Gradually sift in flour, stirring with spoon, making a thick batter. Add well-beaten whites of 2 eggs (or 1 whole egg if you do not wish the rolls to be pure white). Beat hard until bubbles form. Lay aside spoon and work in more flour with hands till the consistency of soft biscuit dough. Grease over top and put in crock to rise. Keep in moderately warm place till it rises to top of jar, or to twice the original size. Make into small rolls (avoid kneading) and let rise to top of pans. Bake in slow oven (not over 300 degrees.) Bake and mixed according to directions, this recipe should make rolls "as white as snow." They have another quality of snow; they are as light and feathery. GREEN CORN AND SHRIMP 6 large ears of corn 3 eggs, separated 2 teaspoons sugar 1 tablespoon melted butter ½ teaspoon salt 2 pounds shrimp, cooked and shelled Grate the corn from the cob. Beat the whites and yolks of the eggs separately. Add the egg yolks to the corn and beat well. Then add the butter, the milk gradually, beating all the while, and then the sugar, salt and the shrimp. Lastly, fold in the egg whites, stiffly beaten. Turn into a buttered casserole and bake in a slow oven about an hour (300° F.) removing the cover at the last so that the dish will brown. This will serve from six to eight people. CLEVER JUDY FROSTING 1 tablespoon butter 1 cup sifted confectioner's sugar 1 egg or 2 egg yolks ¼ cup milk ½ teaspoon vanilla 2 to 4 squares Baker's Unsweetened Chocolate, melled Cream butter thoroughly, add sugar gradually, and cream together well. Add egg, milk, vanilla, and chocolate. Place bowl in pan of cracked ice or ice water and beat with rotary egg beater until of right consistency to spread (about 3 minutes). Make enough frosting to spread between and on top of two 8-inch layers. Double recipe to cover top and sides of three 8-inch layers. All measurements are level. DINNER FOR A DULL EVENING Baked Ham and Escalloped Potatoes Buttered Beans Cinnamon Rolls Butter Vegetable Salad Baked Prune Pudding Cream Coffee or Tea REGISTRATION FOR CAMP LICHTMAN UNDER WAY Registrations for Camp Lichtman have already surpassed expectations, according to statement today by Major Campbell C. Johnson, secretary of the Y.M.C.A. Major Johnson urges parents desiring to have their boys enjoy the unusual privilege of a vacation in the beautiful Shenandoah National Park register at once in consideration of the fact that enrollment is to be limited. C. B. Lee, former steward of the President's Yacht, "The Mayflower," is to be camp steward. Mr. Lee accompanied President Wilson and his Peace Delegation to Europe, as supervisor of diet aboard ship and in the various European hotels. Two chefs are to serve under Mr. Lee's directions. The standard menu approved by the Boys' Club of America, which was worked out under supervision of the Department of Home Economics at Columbia University will be served. Lee Johnson, camp director, and Major Henry O. Atwood, purchasing agent, inspected the camp on Tuesday. They report that the dam and clearings for the lake have been completed, also the covered concrete reservoir for drinking water, drawn from the natural spring, is ready for use. The dining hall shack has been finished with the exception of half the roof, and platforms for the tents have been laid out.

There is an old saying along the sea coast that comes up here: "It is an ill wind that blows nobody good." The Prudential Bank crisis last Friday and Saturday was truly an "ill wind" for the bank and for the race. However, it blew in one great fact the Negroes of Washington have been talking about for a long time—Cooperation. This wind of a run on the bank opened the Negroes' eyes to the fact that they could, yea, can cooperate. And after being awakened and really aroused, the Negroes of Washington came forward in a rally that saved the day and the bank. For the past eleven years The Washington Tribune has pleaded with and implored the Negroes of Washington to arouse to their opportunities here. We have preached cooperation, pleaded for race consciousness and begged for coordinated action. We are proud to chronicle the fact that we have lived to see the fruits of our labor materialize. The Negroes of Washington redeemed themselves over the week-end in saving a race institution from an untimely closing which would have meant much loss to the race. We redeemed ourselves and set a precedent in cooperation and service to our community. We have never witnessed a run on a bank that did not close it. We have been caught in the closing of two banks, both white, and we print with pride the fact that the Negroes of Washington had too much sense to permit prejudice and malicious rumors close their financial institution. They fought back and won. There were four factors in this victory: The meeting held Friday night at Mt. Carmel Baptist Church; the issuing of the extra Saturday by The Washington Tribune carrying an editorial pleading for the support of the race for Prudential Bank; the united effort of the ministers of the city Sunday and other speakers who advised calm consideration of the subject; and determined action to serve and save instead of destroy our own business enterprise by the depositors of the bank. This commendable cooperative spirit will have a very wholesome effect upon the community and may prove an eye opener to some of our friends. May this spirit of cooperation and race patronage continue and become solidified and impregnable. The editorial referred to here follows: Rally to Prudential THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE calls upon he Negroes of Washington to rally to the support of the Prudential Bank at a time when false rumor and racial prejudice threaten its existence. We ask simply that Negroes who have money in the Prudential, leave it there, and that Negroes who have money to deposit—put it there. THE PRUDENTIAL BANK CAN NOT FAIL IF NEGROES DO THIS.

We ask simply that Negroes who have money in the Prudential, leave it there, and that Negroes who have money to deposit—put it there. THE PRUDENTIAL BANK CAN NOT FAIL IF NEGROES DO THIS. THERE IS NO DISHONESTY AT THE PRUDENTIAL. IT CAN BE RUINED BY A RUN—AS ANY BANK IN THE COUNTRY CAN BE RUINED BY A RUN; BUT RUNS ARE NOT NECESSARY AND NEGROES SHOULD NOT START A RUN ON A SOLVENT NEGRO INSTITUTION BECAUSE OF A GROUNDLESS RUMOR. As is usually the case the Negro is the author of his own misfortune. If the Prudential or Industrial Bank had gone under by virtue of the unfounded rumors as to their solvency lately bruited about, either would have carried with it, as always happens when any financial institution of importance fails, a tremendous loss and set-back to our race. Besides loss of deposits, or at least loss of the use of their money while the affairs, of these institutions were being adjusted, there would have been loss of positions and incomes derived therefrom, and a set-back to our business institutions, and confidence that would not have been repaid in our times. The Negro who is guilty of lending any aid, even the remotest, to a situation of that kind IS ACTUALLY TAKING BREAD OUT OF HIS OWN MOUTH. And whence arose these rumors that caused the unpleasant situation where, for the first time in their history, the solvency of these banks has been questioned? The Tribune is reliably informed that they came from a stop order whereby a certain large down-town department store, (which it has been said does not even desire colored patronage in the first place) gave orders to its employees not to accept checks from certain banks, including the Prudential and the Industrial. Now, the question of the legal liability of this store for its action is one that concerns the banks only. However, those Negroes who insist on patronizing stores which do not want their patronage can thank themselves for the situation. If they had followed the unconcealed wishes of such stores, or the dictates of their own self respect, this store would not have been in a position to have issued an order whereby the deposits of its patrons were jeopardized. It is true that owing to our own shortsightedness and lack of business acumen we have not stores sufficient to supply our needs, and do not patronize such as we have. It is bad enough to spend our money where it does us no good, and provide a livelihood for thousands of white men and women instead of Negroes, but those who patronize stores where they are not wanted also provide an opportunity for our enemies to stifle such other institutions as we have. And yet there are those among us who like to boast of the fact that they buy their clothes at such "exclusive shops." To each and every one of them the TRIBUNE says: YOU ARE THE AUTHOR OF THE ATTACK ON OUR BANKS. STREET CAR FARES AND TRANSFERS In these days of depression and Hoover panics, these days of cut salaries and reduced living standards, high street car fares, like high rents, remain. We have the most unjust; inhuman and non-service street car systems in the country. The ten cent fare should be reduced at least 25 per cent. And transfers should be issued at every crossing regardless of inter-company crossings.

AL BANK CAN NOT FAIL IF NEERE IS NO DISHONESTY AT THE force them to run for our convenience, especially in the matter of transfers. If the street cars are run for service to the people then why make a citizen walk tour or five blocks or pay two fares? For example: Citizens living west of Eleventh street, northwest and east of Connecticut avenue, a distance of ten blocks or more, wishing to go to Suburban Gardens must walk from two to five or six blocks or pay two fares. Sure there is a car line on U street, but neither of the cars going east on U street will issue a transfer to the District line car at Seventh street or New Jersey avenue. Nor will the returning car from Suburban Gardens issue a transfer at New Jersey avenue or Seventh street, northwest. Therefore, the people living on U street between Fifteenth and Eighteenth streets, must walk four or five blocks to get a street car, while other cars pass by their doors. This inconvenience is an injustice which could be easily remedied by the simple issuing of transfers. The Tribune demands reduced car fares and inter-transfers at every crossing where back riding would not occur.

Negroes need not expect a fair decision on points in a boxing match anywhere in the United States. This was exemplified Monday night in the Chocolate-Berg night in New York. This decision, like that in the Sharkey-Schmeling bout, in the same city a few weeks ago, was rank, toul and unfair. The color question or race prejudice decided both nights. Every sport writer present at each fight would have given the night in each bout to the opposite man the supposed judges said won. Kid Chocolate is a dark skinned Cuban and of course classed as a Negro by race prejudiced America. In Schmeling-Sharkey decision, color prejudice played its part and gave Sharkey the decision for had Schmeling, the Berman, won the championship, he would have fought Larry Gaines, Negro Canaajian, who is the British heavy-weight. Gaines is said to be a better fighter than Schmeling and was expected to win the bout with Schmeling therefore giving the diamond-studded belt to a Negro again, which would have been the first since Jack Coonson held it. Jack Johnson laid down to the inferior Jess Willard in Havana back in the good old days and no Negro has had a real chance to win and wear that championship belt since. Race prejudice in America, in this case reached across the sea and found an excuse for a rank and unfair decision in a boxing match in New York. Race prejudice is evidently on the increase in America. It has outstriped America's Christianity and dominates the church, the government, the whole country. Negroes are the victims more often and more severely than any other race in this country. Of course there are other races who suffer to a certain degree. The Negro is the victim even of those who suffer also. Will this monster ever dominate this land or will another hundred years witness the advancement of the Negro to a much less degree of race prejudice? Our great-great-grand children may be able to see a change for the better. For the present we can grit our teeth and make the best of it, ever mindful that race prejudice is greater, more far reaching and more in evidence than our constitution or our much heralded Christian principles and is our "Thorn in the flesh." DIGESTING THE NEWS DIGESTING THE NEWS BARTER AND TRADE Weekly I peruse about seventy-five colored "exchanges" that come to me from all parts of the country and I carefully scan each advertisement for in each ad a story is told if one is observant enough to unfold it. Here and there I have seen some very interesting ads that indicates considerable ingenuity on the part of the advertiser. The advertiser, apparently, has realized that to sell his commodity, or service, for cash only, would considerably restrict his business, so the advertiser has suggested an exchange of commodities, or services. labor. He is today valuable in. If you in Negro has more care opportunity himself by modiifies a to get a f constantly the advert our paper try. After all what is commercialism but an exchange of commodities or services? Barter and Trade may not be considered as a high-class commercial business but it at least brings the actual producer and consumer together on a common basis. Money was invented as the medium of exchange and as such is very useful when one has it. Unfortunately, it has a way of, seemingly, becoming cornered and divested in the hands of a few, while the many are still in need of the commodities, or services, but have not the money to obtain same. As long as actual labor will produce the necessities of life there will be found ways for industrious persons to barter this labor in exchange for various forms of commercial trade even without a cent of money exchanging hands. In one community I noticed that a tradesman, once prosperous and doing a thriving business, was faced with the dilemma of retiring from business or to continue and eventually face bankruptcy proceedings for at the rate he was going, his obligations were exceeding his collectable assets. He was doing plenty of business and on paper was making money but his debtors couldn't pay him. What did he do?

He expanded the idea and is today the possessor of much valuable improved realty holdings. If you are one who thinks the Negro hasn't a chance you should more carefully observe the many opportunities he is creating for himself by exchanging his commodities and services inan effort to get a foothold and which I am constantly observing by reading the advertisements appearing in our papers throughout the country. A reformer is a guy who loves to peep across into milady's boudoir, and hides his pint flask beneath his mattress. The boy says: The long skirts are just fine—they give us more of a thrill should the ladies become just a wee bit reckless or careless. Never allow a highbrow to highhat you, for he or she is merely a person educated beyond their intelligence. The modern girl takes "for granted" such privileges as, smoking, petting dates, use of extreme cosmetics, bare legs, and right not to obey parents. As a rule we detest personal critics. But these critics are a large asset to our advancement—they cause us to secretly think over and analyze our short-comings and errors. Courage is indeed a wonderful thing—but in nine out of ten cases we analyze it, it is caused by pressure. Again from me—Genius is exactly the opposite of what the clever people of today think it is. Those of us who were, and have never been, within the clutches of "domestic servitude" should respect those who are, for in nine cases out of ten they are the ones to whom we owe credit for having escaped such. ```markdown ``` KELLY MILLER SAYS: KELLY MILLER SAYS: A STATEMENT OF NEGRO BUSINESS A NEW DEGREE. The economic slump has given rise to a new degree—"Doctors of Depression." Messrs. Hoover and Roosevelt are vying with each other as to which of the two is best entitled to that degree. Of Mr. Hoover, it must be said that the patient was delivered to his hands in a well nigh perfect condition. When Mr. Coolidge turned the country over to his successor its conditions was sound economically and financially as at any time during its existence. On taking charge of the patient, Mr. Hoover declared that he would improve existing good health to the pink of perfection. So sure we were of the efficacy of his treatment that we had already begun to take an imaginary ride in the second car in our garage and to get a foretaste of the second chicken in our pot. But, alas, we must now content ourselves with our old delapidated car and be satisfied with faith in that second bird as the evidence of things not seen and the substance of things hoped for. The failure of previous prophecy makes us dubious of additional predictions. In all fairness, it must be said that Mr. Hoover had had the handling of the patient for the past three years and that he has grown steadily worse under his treatment. He has proved to be an utter failure as a diagnostician. When the patient first showed symptoms of serious sickness, the good Dr. Hoover assured us that it was only a case of temporary swooning and that recovery would be swift and complete. We were advised to possess our souls in patience, assured that returning health was right around the corner. And yet the patient still grows weaker. But with an amazing optimism, he assures us that his treatment is sound and his remedy is sure. The Chinese pay the physician to keep his patient well, but when he falls sick on his hands the doctor is dismissed in disgrace. The old motto runs that an ounce of preventive is worth $ z $ pound of cure. A physician who fails properly to diagnose disease and to keep his patient well can hardly hope for full confidence, in his restorative treatment. It is related of a certain physician that he pried himself on his ability to cure any case of fits however severe. Whenever a patient fell to his hands, whatever the nature of his ailment, he would administer a drug to throw him into a fit, and forthwith demonstrate his skill in curing the fits. By parity of reason, Mr. Hoover's adversaries might say that the good Doctor has allowed the country to fall into depression in order to demonstrate his expertise as Doctor of Depression. On the other hand Franklin De lano Roosevelt steps to the bed side (Continued from last week) By the Executive Committee of the National Negro Business League. Negro Press We express our deep appreciation to the Negro press for its unwavering interest in and support of Negro business. Negro newspapers and magazines are the direct reflectors of Negro opinion and Negro progress. As such they are increasingly valuable as advertising media and we recommend that Negro business set aside definite advertising appropriations based upon gross volume to be used for advertising in Negro papers which can meet the standards of circulation and service. The Housewives League The Housewives League movement represents the buying power of Negroes and in its potential strength is one of the most important undertakings among Negroes. In its "Declaration of Purpose" the Housewives League states that it is organized "to conduct an economic crusade in behalf of the employment of our children and to promote the progress of our race." The League's "declaration" further states that its object may be rapidly attained by "affiliating with the National Negro Business League's efforts to organize Negro business in its various classes and groups." We hereby express our sincere appreciation to the faithful women of our race who are pioneering in this movement and have appointed a committee of three of our national officers to cooperate with the leaders of the Housewives League movement: We further urge the business men of our race to take full advantage of the intense interest of our women in the development of Negro business and recommend that units of Housewives' League be organized in every city where there are local organized groups affiliated with the National Negro Business League. C. M. A. Stores The C.M.A. Stores represent a practical demonstration of the fundamental teachings of the National Negro Business League and we give our unqualified endorsement of this movement and pledge ourselves to disseminate and prop- and asks the patient to change physicians. "What experience and instances of success have you had?", the patient asks, "that would justify the turning off of a trained physician for an untried tyro"? The tyro always has one advantage over the seasoned physician—he has no accumulation of failures on his hand. His prophecies are not discredited by previous false predictions. Ogden Mills says that we must not dismiss the seasoned veteran for the untried raw recruit. Abraham Lincoln, with great aptitude, used to say that it was bad wisdom to swap horses in the middle of the creek. Both of these motoes, like all other wise saws, are half true and half false. If the veteran cannot win the victory, and if the hitched horse cannot move the stalled wagon, the sooner either be changed, the better. An evil precedent is a better handicap. The promise of something different fills us with new hope. Mr. Roosevelt has been tested only on a local scale. He has been reasonably successful. He has been faithful over a few things, and now, not unreasonably, aspires to be made ruler over many things. His nostrums have not the discredit of previous failure like those of Mr. Hoover. His diagnosis has not been proved palpably false. The patient has not fallen sick on his hands. Sometimes a mere change of treatment is desirable for the sake of change. The psychological effect is good. The patient gains fresh hope from the new remedy. Dr. Hoover claims that Dr. Roosevelt offers quack remedies calculated to mislead and beguile the patient. Dr. Roosevelt rejoins that "vour nostrums are antequated and stale and have abundantly demonstrated their inefficacy." And so the patient stands distraught between these two rival claimants for the title of Doctor of Depression. One or the other will be chosen according to the mood, the temper or the whim of the patient. Neither is infallible. The ultra cautious, the conservative, the reactionaries will advocate retaining the old family physician, from sheer fear of change. The progressives with modernistic disposition will risk the change albeit it be somewhat experimental. During the ensuing campaign we shall hear all sorts of extravagant claims put forth by both sides. Each will discount and discredit the merits of the adversaries claims and extol his own to the skies. We may as well discredit in advance all such campaign extravaganza. The fact is the patient is sick nigh unto death. Neither of the contending Doctors of Depression knows of a certainty how to diagnose the disease or prescribe the remedy. And yet the choice must needs be made between these rival Doctors of Depression erly interpret the program and policies of this effort to successfully place our people in the field of retail merchandising. The Executive Committee Offers Specific Aids to Negro Business. In order to encourage all of the various racial activities set forth above the Executive Committee offers its service to the race and to the nation to assist in any and every way the advancement of the economic efforts of our race. To that end, it is our purpose to bring to the policy-making group of the National Negro Business League men and women who are active in business and who are willing, as leaders of our race, to give of their time and their experiences the essential stimulus and methods of procedure to enable the League to serve all types and classes and groups among us who are in business or who plan to enter business. We further offer, through our president, Dr. R. R. Moton, to appoint a special committee of capable, experienced men to meet committee representing special business interests of our race, whenever such joint meetings may committees representing special problem affecting the special group. We believe through such joint conferences serious difficulties for Negro business groups may be averted or minimized. To do this work successfully we are compelled to appeal to the Negro public to join with us in giving support to the National Negro Business League. This will mean more memberships and contributions. The amount needed is $5,000 for competent field workers. Our President, Dr. Moton, is behind this appeal and will be generous in his contribution in proportion to the efforts made by others. Success can be attained through such financial cooperation. Appreciation The Convention for 1932 made history in that it was featured by a marvelous Trade Exhibit staged by the business men of Harlem. To the Harlem Business Men's Club which acted as host to the Convention we express our sincere thanks. To hold is not always to have. Release the bonds and then witness the result. BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL Women Out Of Work I belong to that great army of unemployed that is steadily increasing in the United States every day. But I am a woman, I say "but" appropriately because today the stress is being laid on the unemployed men—heads of households. There are thousands of American women like me. Women whose income depends on their jobs—women household heads who are desperately trying to support families. And you, President of the United States—Congress of the United States—American People—what are you going to do about it? I've heard numerous speeches over the radio in the interest of unemployment relief, and programs where the announcers have read cases of individuals who were in desperate need of work; and the radio audience has been called upon to supply small jobs—carpentering, painting, gardening, anything—to help these people who were the heads of families—and all these cases were men. In the last few weeks, thousands and thousands of men have tramped to Washington and encamped there to force Congress to pass the Bonus bill, and provide for them. Hungry men—ragged men. I am sorry for them. The whole United States is sorry for them, and is asking, "What's going to be done about the men out of work?" But we are women. We are supporting families. We did not fight in the trenches in France, but we are waging a desperate battle to make our children—the men and women of tomorrow—the kind of people that America wants and needs. Ours is a double responsibility, for upon our shoulders rests the burden of supplying material and spiritual needs. Nothing is being said about the unemployed woman. The mother with children looking to her for bread which she cannot give them. The fatherless household where the woman worries about the gas bill, the clothing bill and the all-import-ant food bill. The woman who must look ahead for the money to buy next winter's coal, and pay the rent. Senators in Congress have proposed building projects to put the idle men back to work. Streets are being repaired. Public parks and highways improved, to give men employment. How about the women out of work? The women who tramp the streets looking for work or begging for a penny—something to eat, or clothes? The women who have no homes to stay in, because they can't pay the rent. Women who are too proud to accept charity, but are glad to take work of any kind—scrubbing floors, anything. Hungry women. Ragged women. Desperate women. Those who must return home at the end of a long weary day with no job—no money—no food to feed the mouths that wait. What is going to be done for the unemployed women? They cannot march in squads to Washington. It is their business to stay at home and carry on until relief comes—to smile into the faces turned up to them. I tell you, Mr. Congressman, Mr. President of the United States, Mr. American Citizen, the problem of the unemployed feminine head of families is just as imperative, just as vital, just as much a part of your duty as that of the unemployed man. It demands your immediate attention. Give a thought to the women of America and make jobs for them so that they may be able to meet the responsibilities which they are shouldering so bravely. Are the American women to say, "We asked for bread. They gave us . . . a stone?" Beatrice M. Murphy. 1030 Euclid St., N.W. HELPLESSNESS By JOHNNIE WILLIAMS BY JOHNNIE WILLIAMS Everybody pities helplessness. It matters not whether it is a helpless animal, or a baby, which we hug protectively because of its helplessness, or a man. Helplessness is a thing that simply and unconsciously arouses pity. Albeit, not all helplessness comes under this allegory. There is a helplessness that is innate and is intentionally perpetuated because of the ease and irresponsibility that follows. Take, for example, the helpless husband, who on returning home from work, finds his wife out. Behold him now while he slouches in the nearest chair, cigarette dangling from his lips, one hand serving as a prop for the side of his face while the other hangs limply between his legs. He will sit right there and literally starve rather than roll up his sleeves and go to the kitchen. An obsequious wife and a stupid mother are about the only two people in the world who would pity that type of helplessness. Now observe the wife of this shiftless creature and you will find that she is a sort of trellis on which he hangs when he is around the house. Wives and mothers, by sheer intuition, often recognize this helpless malady. But instead of openly resenting, they make the fatal mistake of acquiescing in it. And it is an indubitable fact that if objectionable practices are not met by timely opposition, they continue to increase, both in number and in size, until they become a sort of habit of the soul which is about as easy to change as is the color of one's eyes. Cogitation is not necessary to determine the truth of this assertion. One has but to observe the general conditions of house life in one's community. IN THE REALM OF BOOKS NEW BOOK OF POEMS Alpheus Butler, editor of "The Literary Alcove" a feature in this paper (that appeared for nearly two years), offers "Make Way for Happiness," a book of 138 pages of poems written by the author. Many of the poems never have been published before, while some of them are reprinted from the leading magazines of poetry in America. The book is divided into sections as Travel Sonnets, Lyrical Sonnets, Nature Sonnets, Lyrics. The poems contain that smooth rythm that is typical of Mr. Butler's work, and his "Romany Road," Sepia Silhouette," "Moon Lane" and his modernistic "Night in Florida" are to be read at least twice—because they impel with their beauty. Mr. Butler is a 1929 graduate of the University of Denver where he attained the distinction of membership in Rad Rune of the American College Quill Club, contributed to "The Denver Clarion" student publication, "The Kynwisook" 1929 Annual of the University, and "The Candle" monthly publication of Rad Rune of the American College Quill Club. Since graduation he has served as a member of the editorial staff of a Chicago weekly, taught successfully for two years, and acted as editor of "The Literary Alcove" of "The Washington Tribune." Early in 1931 more than 600 tourists from many states in the Union heard him read at Daytona Beach and enthusiastically applauded his work. "Florida Poets: An Anthology of Contemporary Verse" just issued by the firm of Henry Harrison, New York, includes his writing and his work is given the distinction of first mention among the living poets represented by Vivian Yeiser Laramore in the foreword. Mr. Butler has also compiled and written the introduction for "The Parnassian" a collection of poetry and prose by contemporary writers. Due to the wide interest in the writings of Alpheus Butler, "Make Way For Happiness" is sure to become popular and have a long, steady sale. "Make Way For Happiness" is published by the Christopher House, 1140 Columbus avenue, Boston, Mass., cloth, Price $1.50. JULY READING The later part of July and the month of August, those vacation days when one in trying to pass the days away he turns to books—good books—the best company that man can seek. For you who are looking for some good books for this season we suggest the following: Just off the press. Liberty: The Story of Cuba, by Horatio S. Rubens. This is the tale of Cuba's fight for liberty. The author of this book—general consul for and only surviving member of the original Cuban Revolutionary Junta—is the only person equipped to tell such a story. Ruben was a young American lawyer, practising in New York when he met Jose Marti, Cuban poet, delegate of the Cuban revolutionary party. He gave up his law practise to see what he could do to help Cuba. His narrative of the days leading up to 1898 is vivid. And in the telling Rubens contributes many hitherto unrecorded deeds and misdeeds of the great and near great of that period—sensationally surprising some of it, but all authenticated.

Marshall, which, we learn by reading the preface, were all written subsequent to May 1020, as the direct result of a disappointment in love. The poetess has expressed her thoughts on a great many pertinent subjects, in rhyme, and scattered throughout her verses are bits of autobiography which we patiently piece together and thus learn the history of one of our young writers of note. We learn that she was born in Minnesota on May 30, 1906, and schooled in the public schools, and the University of Minnesota from which school of learning she is a graduate. She has taught in the high schools of Mississippi, and judging from her poetry, she also experienced a few of the romantic arts while in Mississippi. We further learn that her poetic contributions have been accepted and published in periodicals published in Duluth; Atlanta; Pittsburgh; Minneapolis; Baltimore; Jackson, Mississippi; Boston, and in the Minnesota Alumni Weekly. Miss Marshall is frequently heard at church recitals, reading from selections of her four hundred compositions and is also distributing her latest song number. "I'm Searching for the Man of my Dreams." The book is published and distributed by Miss Endora V. Marshall, 1423 97th avenue, Duluth, Minnesota. - Clifford G.
