E., 7 CENT PER COPY Elder 7 CENTS PER COPY ARGE CROWD AT IMPRESSIVE CEREMONIES ev. Michaux Dipped Large Mixed Number In Potomac Sunday By J. A. G. LUVALLE For the first time in my life I saw a Jew, about forty white people, and a larger number of colored people baptized, Sunday, in the Potomac River, by Elder Michaux. Never before had I witnessed baptizing with a colored pastor baptizing white people. And never before had I even heard of a Jew eing baptized by a Negro preacher. Religious history was made Sunday when Elder Michaux, pastor of the Church of God, located on Georgia avenue, across from the American League ball park, held his annual baptizing in the Potomac river. At present, while the church is being remodeled, services are held in a large tent on Sherman avenue, northwest, east of Garfield hospital. The saints, as the members are allied, began assembling under the ant Sunday about 11 a.m. I noticed men, women and children coming in with white robes on they were the candidates for bansm. Soon a song was begun and very one sang. Then it was announced that there would be no reaching, only testimonial meeting would be held. More songs. Among the first to testify was a new, who said that he had been looking for this day for about a car. That it is a serious occasion to him, and that he was happy to a present, "I don't know what you Gentiles think, but it is a great ay with me." As the meeting progressed more people came in with white robes. they were all seated together in the middle row. Soon I noticed free white women with white robes. I had noticed white people in the audience. More came in.

The indictments against the trio were returned last Monday. Faulkner has an excellent record in the army and was discharged July 25, 1919. His home address is Paint Lick, Ky. He served as a private in Company A, 308th Service Battalion and was overseas from March 29, 1918 to July 18, 1919, according to his service record. He was gassed during the war. CAME FOR MAIL He was a member of the Camp Marks during the stay of the B.E.P. here and had assisted military police several times in ousting Communist agitators from the camp. Here is Faulkner's own story of how he became involved in the wholesale arrests by excited police officers during the famous "Bloody Thursday" on Pennsylvania avenue during the riot: Came "up-town" on the day of the 28th to get his mail. Had been told there was one Post Office on Pennsylvania avenue and another at the depot. Decided to go to the Pennsylvania avenue station first and in passing Third street and Pennsylvania avenue noticed traffic policemen holding back crowds. "I didn't pay any particular attention to it," Faulkner, a giant colored man, said. "I thought maybe it was a parade or something. I started across the street to ask the way to the post office. A cop came at me with his stick raised and hollered. 'Get back there.' Cursed by Police Cursed by Police "I said I wanted to get mail. He said, 'Get back there or I'll let you have it. He cursed me; called me everything in the world but a child of a God. "He started after me with the stick and I grabbed it. Four of 'em jumped on me and I pushed them back against a wall. Then nine of them got me and put me in a patrol. "They said they would railroad me. Next day they said I had a brick. There wasn't a brick within a block of here. I said, 'you can charge me with anything you want but don't hit me with that stick. I ain't done nothing wrong." All are content with life at the jail. Othes indicted with Faulkner are John O. Olson and Bernard McCoy, both white and both were wounded in France. All are charged with having incited to riot and will be tried in October. Faulkner is accused of assaulting Policeman John E. Winters with a dangerous weapon, a brick. The maximum penalty for an assault to kill is fifteen years in the penitentiary and for an assault with a dangerous weapon not more than ten years' imprisonment.

(Continued on Page 3) CLAIM RECEIVERS SEEK TO WRECK NATION'L BENEFIT CLAIM RECEIVERS SEEK TO WRECK NATION'L BENEFIT Say Receivers In Virginia Are Unduly Unfair To Policyholders RICHMOND, Va.—Claiming that the Virginia receivers for the National Benefit Life Insurance Company are scheming to wreck the company, Gilbert A. Clark and Frank B. Bryan, Jr., filed a petition in the Circuit Court here, Friday, asking Judge Julien Gunn to evoke the decree directing Leon M. Bazile and W. H. Cardwell, the Virginia receivers, to pay 10 percent of the adjusted amounts of pending death claims. They also ask the court to approve their plan for modification of policies, appoint them as ancillary receivers to the end that they may put into effect their modification plan and conduct the business on that basis, and revoke its decree fixing compensation of the Virginia receivers at $500 a month each. Both the general and Virginia receivers are white. ceilers are white. In their petition Mr. Clark and Mr. Bryan state that they desire to extend to Virginia policyholders the opportunity of participating in the modification plan. They say that Virginia policyholders, who have continued to pay premiums to the Virginia receivers, have received no assurance that any protection will be given them or that any definite amount of death or other benefits will be paid as a result of their premiums except the current payment of health claims. Because of the failure of the Virginia receivers to announce to Virginia policyholders any plan for their protection, the petitioners claim, the business is dwindling. They declared that unless a definite plan for the immediate protection of Virginia policyholders is adopted, the Virginia receivers should be instructed to discontinue FIRE DEPT. AFTER being invited to participate in the Fire men's Parade in Alexandria, Va., and on going there and being given "guest badges," these men were told that they could not parade and to go back home to East Arlington, Va. Motor Cycle Police And Director Of Public Safety To Form Escort For J. Finley Wilson, Grand Exalted Ruler Of Order By Garland Mackey With an honor guard of motor cycle police, J. Finley Wilson,, grand exalted ruler of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks will ride into Atlantic City Monday accompanied by Mayor Bacharach and the Director of Public Safety. This welcoming committee headed by the mayor will meet the grand exalted ruler at Pleasantville, N.J. and will form the official escort in greeting the head of the Elks. In his hands Mr. Wilson will carry a golden key symbolizing that the city will be at his command and all doors will be open to him. I talked about an hour with the Elks' head Tuesday while he was in his bed resting from the labors of putting the finishing touches to the annual convention which begins Monday at the Seashore resort and will last until Friday. Our conversation was interrupted at intervals when Mr. Wilson was forced to answer telephone calls from members of his official staff who are gathering here in Washington and others. A representative from the New York Times was among those seeking to "have a word" with the grand exalted ruler. Court Fights Hurt Order Like most men who are at the head of a great organization Mr. Wilson has his enemies. He is prone to treat them lightly and deal with them lientiably. He readily admitted that the greatest setback he has had has been from a certain Dr. Thomas Wright. The Elks' chief said the doctor was out to get his scalp and he proposed to get the doctor's first. Mr. Wilson scoffed at the rumor that court proceedings would stop the annual convention this year. The Pride of Newark Lodge was suspended some time ago for failure to meet obligations set out in the constitution of the order. This lodge secured the services of a Newark law firm to get out an injunction to prevent the grand lodge from meeting in New Jersey. So far they have not succeeded. In fact four of the leaders of this movement were in Washington, Saturday, seeking to have the lodge reinstated. This deletion failed to see the grand exalted king. Instead she saw Perry W. Howard, legal and legal advisor who told then that would have to see Mr. Wilson as it was the grand ruler who suspended the lodge and they could (Continued on page two) JOHN H.

MILLER SAYS CAPITALISM CONTROLS MEDICINE EDITOR'S NOTE—Dr. Kelly Miller, the son of Professor Kelly Miller, of Morward University, who has shown a radical tendency in his profession, sends this special article to the Tribute at the time of the death of his father, here Dr. Miller is located at 2376 Seventh Avenue, New York City, and in all of his articles he is pro-Soviet. He has made a study of the medical and health phases of the Soviets, and visited them in Russia. While in Russia Dr. Miller was married. We make no comment on Dr. Miller's article. We extend to him the freedom of opinion in our columns. Doctors, like all other scientific experts and research workers, are compelled to work fundamentally in the interests of the dominant power in society—the capitalist class. The indictment of the medical profession is nowhere more ably framed than in the preface to "The Doctor's Dilemma" by George Bernard Shaw. The prerequisites of full physical healt depend upon suitable food, fresh air and sunlight, warmth, exercise, rest and cleanliness. Dirt uncleanliness and insanitation, poverty, ignorance, are responsible for much disease. The germs which flourish under such conditions are, for bourgeois doctors, the "cause of disease." However, dirt, uncleanliness and insanitation, poverty, ignorance, are bound up with capitalism, inseparable from it and eternal with it. This is so much so that doctors are compelled, in capitalist society, to work upon this as a fixed foundation. For example, tuberculosis which kills over one-seventh of the human race. The germ theory selects one link in a sequence, in a process as the cause of disease. In the chain of poverty, overcrowding, bad feeding, sunlessness, and the tuberculosis germ, bourgeois medical researchers siege upon the tuberculosis germ as the main cause of disease. There are many eminent specialists who claim that social FIVE ARRESTED IN NEWSPAPERTHEFTS FIVE ARRESTED IN NEWSPAPERTHEFTS Five persons, including a thirteen-year-old bo $n$ were arrested here this week in connection with the theft of newspapers, from the honor rack at Thirteenth and U streets, northwest.

The East Arlington, Va., company sent twelve men and a fire engine to take part in the parade after the company had been invited to be the guest of the Alexandria Fire Department. The invitation was sent to the colored company by Dan S. Hollenga, chairman of the committee on invitations, and James M. Duncan, Jr., chief of the Alexandria Fire Department. Asked to Leave The East Arlington company, headed by Chief George Vollin, Jr., arrived in Alexandria early in the day, and each member was given badges and assigned to Section 13 in the parade. Just before 2 p.m., the time the parade was scheduled to start, the East Arlington Company went to its designated section where the men waited for the signal to start. While in line Chief Vollin and his men were approached by Chief Duncan and City Manager Paul Lawrence and were informed that several of the white companies had threatened to quit if the colored company remained in the line of march. The white companies not only would refuse to parade, but they had signified their intention of withdrawing from the association if the Negro firemen were per- TRIO BADLY HURT WHEN CAR STRIKES TELEPHONE POLE Automobile Leaves Road, Crashes Into Pole After Missing Curve Three persons were seriously injured early Tuesday morning when the machine in which they were passengers struck a telephone post on a nearby road.

CAMP CLARISSA SCOTT The woodland and halls of camp echoed with merry laughter last week as the family carried on the regular program. Monday brought many smiles for the new girls coming to join the family, and a wee sad expression as a few campers took their leave for home. "No, grandmother, I am not ready to go home, I want to stay in camp six weeks," Little Martha said to her grandmother after three weeks of camp life. Little Miss Martha McAdoo who is the granddaughter of Mrs. M. A. McAdoo, general secretary of the Y. W. C. A., hails from South Braintree, Mass. She is only seven years old and has been a most unusual camper in every respect. Her adjustment with the various groups is marvelous. Just as Martha, all the girls are proving wonderful campers and real camp sisters. A Backward Party was a very interesting and enjoyable event of last week. Thursday evening at the party, dress attire was worn backwards, games, stunts and dances were backward, conversation and singing were backward. All was so backward that Friday morning there was a bit of trouble getting straight again. The weekly camp fire took place on Friday evening with songs, games and lots of fun. The campers look forward with much joy to roasting weenies, and marshmallows on Friday. During free period in the mornings each camper takes her turn playing tennis. Although the balls seem unrulely and go far away at times, the campers find it great sport. Just before supper Sunday afternoon the camp bus was crowded with campers for a ride, Miss Susie Green, business manager, sometimes gives the girls a ride when they have been very good. These rides are always a pleasure. Vespers last Sunday were in charge of Miss Mary Sims. The theme was "Prayer" and was most impressive. Each girl entered into the service with interest. Visitors are always welcome. Among those of last week are the following: Misses Ethel White and Helen Jones, Mr. John Randall, Mrs. M. A. McAdoo, Mrs. E. Burgemester, Misses Lula Allan and Eunice Jones, Mrs. Minnie Cherry of Atlantic City, N. J., Mrs. Marie Campbell, Mrs. Rosie Murphy of the Health Camp, Misses Marion F. Branch of Cleveland, O.

The petitioners assert that the modification plan may be maintained on a sound basis only by efficient and economical management. "Without intending to be unduly critical of the disbursements made by and to the Virginia receivers," the petitioner add, "they are advised by their actuaries, and from their experience as insurance men they state, that no adequate protection can be given to the policyholders in the state of Virginia in consideration for the premiums which they are now paying if there is continued the present expensive administration of the Virginia business, which under its present management in the period from October 19, 1931, to May 1, 1932, has expended, without the payment of any death claims, approximately 75 per cent of the moneys received from premium payments and has on hand out of premium collections of some $52,000 approximately $13,000 with unpaid death claim liabilities of approximately $20,000 which have accrued in the period of the receivership." The petition shows that on May 1, last, the Virginia receivers had a total cash balance of $17,009.82 remaining from all income received by them from October 19, 1931, through April 30 last. Of this sum they took over $2,784.79 bank balances of the company at the time of their appointment and have also received as interest on bonds and from other sources than premiums approximately $1,323.33. By deducting these two items from the cash on hand there was remaining in the hands of the Virginia receivers May 1, last, from premiums collections, less than $13,000. The total premiums collected from policyholders amount to approximately $52,444.60. For the information of the court, the petitioners prepared an analysis of income and disbursements in the period from March 1, 1931, to August 31, 1931, under the former management of the company prior to the receivership, and an analysis of the income and disbursements under the Virginia receivers to May 1, 1932. The figures of the former management, it is explained, are not set forth as examples of efficient and economical administration. During the period from March 1 to August 31, 1931, the business was operated by the officials of the company and was headed into insolvency. From this statement, however, it is seen that under the company management the premium income in Virginia was $68,144.62, while under the receivers' management it amounted to $52,444.40. Under the company management salaries totalled $479,232, or 10.8 per cent of the premium income, while under the receivers' management the salaries, including $6,000 fees paid to Mr. Bazile and Mr. Cardwall for service to May 1, lasted $15,304,022, or 29.2 per cent of the premium income. Under the company management practically $9,000 was paid out in death claims, while the receivers not only did not pay any death claims but did not maintain sufficient balance to pay more than approximately two-thirds of the death claims accruing during the period of the receivership, and premiums now being paid by Virginia policyholders are being expended merely for the maintenance of an unduly expensive organization, the petitioners declare. Say 75 Per Cent Too Much The petitioners estimate the total expenses for the operation of a branch office such as the Richmond office, administering Virginia business but not writing new business, should not exceed from 25 to 30 per cent of the premium collections, which, they assert, is in striking contrast to the present percentage of 75 per cent in the Virginia receivership expenses. Mr. Clark and Mr. Bryan state that they are now serving in several States as ancillary receivers in addition to their work as primary receivers in the District of Columbia. They say that in each State in which they have been appointed they have informed the court of their willingness to serve without compensation as ancillary receivers in order to reduce overhead, place the modification plan on more economical basis, and to effect unified operation.

Larger Scholarship Mortality With City Students Than Domitory Students Further beautification of the grounds surrounding the new residences for women is one of the construction projects now in operation at Howard University. In addition to the planting of trees and shrubbery and the installation of an automatic sprinkler system, there is being built a wrought iron fence with three classic gateways of Georgian design. The brick work of the base and the massive pillars capped in white limestone correspond with the three buildings that provide the background. This improvement gives a finished appearance to the landscaping and affords added charm to an already beautiful site. According to a statement made by Miss Lucy D. Slowe, the Dean of Women, on last Friday, scholarship mortality results indicate that, at the end of the first year of living in the new residence halls, those women living on the campus have a better chance for study than those living off the campus. Thirteen women students living in the dormitories were on probation for the school year 1931-32, whereas 42 living in the city were on probation. During the same year, three campus women were dropped for poor scholarship while 17 city women were dropped for the same reason. Placement Service A project of special significance to campus women, Dean Slowe also said, has been the management of a placement service. During the current school year 150 women were placed with total earnings of $6,690.58. The rise in grade achievement for campus women is attributed to the improved living and study conditions in the new dormitories and to the closer cooperation of women students with the women directors of faculty status The campus residents a.c. housed in three buildings, Georgian in architecture, which were completed and equipped during last school year. They offer an excellent background for classroom work and make possible after-school activities of the same standard. In each building, there is a harmoniously decorated dining room, reception and assembly rooms, an infirmary, and a beauty salon. Each building is also equipped with a self-operating elevator. The upper floors of the building are furnished as sleeping quarters, two young women being assigned to each room. These rooms are furnished and arranged so that during her stay at the University each girl has the opportunity of developing her taste and personality as well as her natural homemaking instincts. Social Contact Individual beds with inner-spring mattresses, dressing tables, closets and easily accessible assembly rooms provide for alternating periods of privacy and social contact necessary in the well-balanced life of a college woman. The immediate proximity of baths, both tub and shower, and a modernly equipped laundry make the practice of good health nabits 225y. Decorations and facilities are such that each registrant is assured of an opportunity to exhibit her individual taste in creating a personal atmosphere in school surroundings. Another outstanding achievement of Howard women during PRINTING NEEDS Perfect printing promptly delivered in any job you wish done.

For freshmen wow-women, the mentor system is used in order to simplify adjustment in the difficult first year period. The mentors, selected each spring quarter for the group of senior women, are trained by the Dean of Women and the two directors. In addition to such training, guidance in reading is provided throughout the summer. Each mentor is selected because of her character and her peculiar fitness for leading. From five to ten freshman women are assigned to each mentor for guidance. ST. LOUIS FINANCE CORPORATION IN RECEIVERSHIP President States Economic Conditions Made Action Necessary ST. LOUIS.-The Peoples Finance Corporation, one of the largest Negro finance corporations in the country, went into the hands of receivers last week. Judge M. Hartmann, in Equity Division of the Circuit Court appointed co-receivers last Thursday. The petition for receivers was filed by J. E. Mitchell, president of the corporation, stated that economic conditions of the race and the inability of the officers to collect outstanding obligations made it impractical to continue to operate. He said that assets from the buildings were about $117,000 and liabilities were $80,000. Most of the assets were in stock loans and were slow of collection. The action in asking for a receiver was made at the request of the board of directors approved by the stockholders in a special meeting Monday night. R. W. Kent, a member of the board and S. E. Garner were appointed receivers and Joseph L. McLemore was appointed attorney for the receivers. It is understood that the assests will pay all the obligations of the institution including the savings certificates. Other plans are under way to protect the stockholders' interests in the building. The Peoples Finance Company was organized in 1922 and later erected the five-story building at 11 North Jefferson avenue.

MILLER SAYS (Continued from page 1) conditions play a great part, but in practice the tuberculosis germ is regarded as the cause. Tubercular Research From the actual amount of research done on the tuberculosis germ, it would appear that if only this germ could be wiped off the face of the earth, that, notwithstanding poverty, mal-nutrition, etc., the problem of the disease which exacts such a great toll of society would be solved. In practice doctors do not become revolutionaries who work for the overthrow of capitalism, the root cause of poverty and tuberculosis, but instead they accept the present order of society and devote themselves, almost entirely, to finding vaccines, antiseptics or other agencies which kill the tuberculosis germ. The ardent and insistent support of the need of fresh air, good food, suitable sunlight, etc., comes after the patient is already infected, and there is nothing like the same insistence upon them before the disease can get a foothold. Further examples may be cited, such as many diseases of infancy and childhood, venereal diseases, accidents, etc. It must be remembered, moreover, that the development of preventive and curative schemes in the Social Medical Service has always followed and never preceded the evidence of their need. Surely what makes men unemployed, poor, less prudent and less self-reliant, or what make for parental inefficiency, malnutrition, etc., is one and the same thing—the underlying root cause of them all is capitalism. The issue is often avoided by setting one sequence of capitalism against another. Sentimental humanists and capitalist apologists point to the various state-aided schemes of medical service as earnest of their concern with medical and welfare centers, nurseries, etc., are all cited by the apostles of capitalism, as evidence of humanitarian concern and proofs of advancing living standards among the people. This is the very opposite of the truth. These are actually confessions that capitalism in its decay cannot leave to the unfettered individualistic inefficient private practice system, disorders which threaten its very existence. These institutions are built up with tribute wrung from the exploitation of the working class, and the services are made to appear as concessions to the workers. These social medical services are attempts to patch up the victims of capitalism in the process of ecay; the general tendency being to treat the effect rather than the cause. With power (the means of production) in the hands of the working class, a way out of the cesspool of disease can be found. There becomes at once changes in the nature of the problem. The problem is no longer how to treat diseases inherent in capitalism; the problem shifts—not what are the causes of diseases, but what are the conditions of health. The masses can consider the problem of health in factories, mines, trades, agriculture, transportation, etc. They themselves work out the conditions of their own labor principles and factory construction, lighting, ventilation, etc., as laid down by the masses themselves and not so much enforced by expert factory inspectors. Workers in the Soviety Union have reduced the time of the working day and week with an increase in pay. Factories are built with fully equipped clinics, dietetic dining rooms, recreation rooms, baths, facilities for music, reading, etc. The Miners chose the safest devices, and take their bats in the mine itself. Workers in chemical and dangerous trades work a shorter day with ten minute rest intervals every hour. Tests and physical examinations are made before one is allowed to enter upon a vocation. The various industrial centers are visited by sanitary experts to determine the effects of the industrial activity upon the health of the worker. Two months before and after childbirth mothers take leave with pay. Many of the nurseries are within reach of the factory where skilled nursing supervision is provided. The mother may come out three times a day, without loss of pay, to suckle her child. Young communists work only four hours a day, and the remainder of the time may be devoted to study or in the factory school. Boy Scouts do not swear or drink, and are taught the essentials of a sound mind and body. Nothing must mitigate against 100 per cent working efficiency of every available man, woman and child (above 16). Every laborer is incurred against sickness and is entitled to an old age or disability pension. Prostitution is practically wiped out because, with the abolition of unemployment and the creation of equal pay for equal work, there is no economic drive to the streets. The simplification of the laws of marriage and divorce, the education of women, and greater sex freedom tend towards this diminution and spread of venereal disease. ELEVEN encouraged, yet contraceptive advice is freely given. Abortion hospitals and departments are legally recognized, where pregnancy may be interrupted, provided the expectant mother furnishes good reason or insists upon it. Education a Factor There is no "noble experiment of prohibition" and the cutting down of alcoholic beverages is being obtained through education. Sovietism and alcoholism do not go together. Workers obtain holidays with full pay and spend their vacation in health resorts and palaces of rest. In the Soviet Union there is a population of over 160,000,000 with an annual increase of over 3,000,000. The death rate is 20.2 per thousand, one of the lowest in the world, and the infant death rate is 130 per thousand. The maternal mortality rate is 3.5 per thousand, while in the United States 6.5 mothers in every thousand lose their lives in child birth. Communism aims at a society where there will be no war, no rich, no poor, but all free toilers. Lenin said that "religion is the opiate of the people. Capitalism and organized religion are inseparable and have been the chief agencies in the retardation of perfect health." Stalin says, "we have no need for a hypothesis of God; we are 100 per cent for science and science requires no faith." Under communism there is a planned collective drive of scientists to wipe out poverty and the germs that flourish with it, to build up healthier and longer-lived types, which in the struggle against disease, unhampered by the crippling bonds of capitalism, will rise triumphant over it.

WEBB "Havoc," in six acts was most successfully dramatized and acted by a patched-up but valiant Walker Post aggregation. The post line-up sadly in need of its renowned batting power, usually generated in great bulk through the efforts of Mickey Stripling, Alfred Smart and Nathaniel Randolph, was forced for three frames to do with its weaker substitutes. The Legion nine, on this memorable occasion, had as their opponents, the Gladiators, who soundly trounced the former, 9 to 1. Bill Nelson, a fast ball artist, set the Youngmen down with one lone single in a game cut short by an on coming downpour. Karl Von Caroline Fearing teed the slab for the losers and though allowing only five scattered safeties, one a homer by Thomas, issued six free tickets to the doorway sack. These combined with a wobbly defensive machine of the Post lads, spelled defeat for Fearing and Walker Post. Five Defeats Incidently, this word defeat, formerly a rarity in the vocabulary of representatives of Manager Young's, is fast becoming a colloquialism among the same group. Five times the Post had had less lessons in spelling defeat, and each time they have been correct. One look at the line-up below, will not show why the Legion boys were downed, but inasmuch as only a small space is allowed for box-scores, the most impressive nine, on paper, has been printed. However, about one and one-half of a nine, in addition to the one printed, were sent into action during the brief fray. Robert Stripling enjoyed the distinctive honor of garnering the lone bingle off the slants of Nelson and how he has satisfied and glorified himself in the lightest. Cubs-Legion Tied, 4-4 Led by: "Puffy" Martin, chief growler, the "Y" Cubs were encountered on Friday, and for seven frames, Walker Post and the young Bruins fired and clawed away the time and all to no avail. The contest ended in a four-all tie after Snod Weasel, following his wild gestures and frantic threats, removed the cushions from their restful positions and sauntered off towards the Lincoln Memorial, probably to secure his daily drink in the Reflecting Pool as weasels are known to do. Seriously, however, Goodwin and Alfred Smart set down the Cubas, allowing only four safeties. Smart, incidentally, had the number of the blustering Mr. Martin, the feared slugger, for he really caused the baby elephant to lose ten pounds on six lusty swings at his lightning fast ball. The grunts of Martin, somewhat resembling the growls of an irked lion, could be heard from third to first base and resounding to the outer garden. Batting Honors Divided Ned Williams and Nat Randolph shared batting honors for the Legions cohorts, each garnering two lusty bingles in four trips to the plate, while "Stuffy" Stewart banged out a screening triple down the first base line past Orwald Glyph. Ralph Quarler, upheld the fur of the Cubas at the batting tee in slugging out two one basers in three tries. Eight and a half innings had really been completed, but with Nat Randleh rosting on third as a result of his one heater and a helpful halk by Quarles coined with another which was disputed by the Bruins, the lads from the Twelfth Street bug house, deserted the field in the dusk of a pleasant August evening. The Cubs had in their half of this canto scored once to take the lead. But the Official Rules state specifically in Section 5 of Rule 23 that a regulation drawn game shall be declared by the umpire if the score is equal on the last even or complete inning played, when he terminates play because of darkness, rain or any other natural cause. Darkness would apply in this case and neither team may claim victory. Captain Webb and his-gladiators are anxious to meet the same lads again in a return game but Master Martin, did not beam with such anxiousness as did Webb and the entire Walker Post team. Perhaps he is avoiding possible defeat at the hands of the Lezion nine.

The Anacostia nine with Berry, Beverly, Reid and Stewart on the mound boasts the strongest hurling staff in the District. All four are curve ball pitchers with plenty of speed and a good change of pace. In the outfield, "Turk" Tate is the key man, flanked by Goodloe and Ellis. All three have powerful throwing arms and are fast. Ball is on the initial sack with Dockett at second. Smith in short and Dale and Garrison on the hot corner. They round out a dependable infield. The catching department is well taken care of by Mason and Green, both veterans. Travers is a first year man, but is showing plenty of ability. Wyatt Roy and Murray Banks are umpires. John H. Williams, a merchant of Anacostia is backing the team. The club house is situated in the basement of his new store. For games call S. Smith, Lincoln 3009 after 5 o'clock.

U. swimming meet which will be held at Francis Pool. August 27 will bring together the leading mermen and mermales of the East. New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Atlantic City and a strong team from Washington will compete in what is predicted a record breaking water meet. Fred Douglass, star of the local dash men, broke the District A.A. U. 50-yard free style dash last year only to have his mark of 28.4 seconds lowered to 4-10 of a second by a white boy at McKinley Pool before the ink was dry on the books that registered the Francis boy's performance. New York Holds Four Records All of the local A.A.U. marks are now held by white swimmers. New York holds five of the records of the Francis Pool. Leroy Williams holds the 200-yard free style and the 100-yard back stroke mark, while John Henderson set a new time in the 100-yard breast stroke event. All were made last year. The New York Y.M.C.A. team holds the pool records in the 200-yard relay and the medley relay. Between "Windy" Wallace, of the University of Iowa, the Francis distance star, Maurice Jackson, the young swimmer with the greatest possibilities in D.C., and Leroy Williams, of New York, the boy who gave all the fans a treat last year when he came within 3 seconds of the record, the District record should go down hard. Then one never knows when a new star will jump up from nowhere to push the old ones. Local Boys Training Local Boys training James Tyson, honor graduate in law in the June class at Howard, has taken upon himself the job of getting the boys' team ready for their trials on Saturday, and what a fine job of it he is doing. This statement holds equally true for Joe Drew and John Harris, the other guards at the pools, who spend hours training and teaching for the pure joy of seeing others grow, and for Clarence Pendleton, who in the early days at the Francis pools helped instill those qualities into the kids in his neighborhood which helped them not only maintain an unbroken string of swimming victories but also have made them good sports and gentlemen, win or lose. This sort of thing 'he is now carrying on to the best of his ability at the Suburban Garden pools. Cubans Run String Of Victories Up To 26 CROOKESTON, Minn. —Syd Pollock's Cuban Stars ran their consecutive string of victories up to 25, before being stopped by the Crookston, Minn. club, who gained a 10 to 2 victory over the Islanders, totaling 50 wins in the last 55 games played, reaching the mid-west territory on June 19. Among the clubs to feel the lash of the Cubans in their 8 out of 9 wins for the past week, where the Michigan Wolverines, Deans Club of Omaha, Crookston, Winnipipe (3 times), Jamestown and Moorhead, with Crookston winning one game. In the 13-inning opener staged at Winnipipe, Canada, Trent pitched the first six innings, fanning nine batters, with Brownze working the last seven, facing only 22 batters, allowing only one hit, and retiring 15 batters on strikes. Lanuza, the pepperly catcher of the Cubans, tagged out 3 runners at home plate, giving him the remarkable record of 27 put-outs during the season.

As I made over the proceeds after the b expenses had been paid hardly any I see by the papers that the boys in New York are planning a fund for Eddie Tolan, recent winner of the 100-meter and 200-meter runs at the Olympic Games in Los Angeles, and Ralph Metcalfe. According to the story this fund is proposed to aid these two boys in completing their education, and "would fit these boys to take their place in the world and prove to them that their deeds were not in vain and that a grateful race appreciated what they had accomplished." Noble words these, but it brings to mind the high purpose for which a fund was raised in New York some few years ago for old Sam Langford, veteran ring fighter who is partially blind. These New York boys raised the fund for old Sam all right, but Sam got little real benefit from the money. As I recall it there was considerable fuss made over the proceeds after the benefit program for Sam. After the expenses had been paid hardly anything was left for Sam.

Of course, two stars like Tolan and Metcalfe are good for a packed house out here in the East and the New York lads certainly know how to pick 'em at the right time. I am of the opinion that there are many more worthy cases in New York that need more help than Tolan or Metcalfe. I know Tolan has a good job at West Virginia State College and I am sure he would not be a party to any such "benefit." Furthermore I am sure neither of the boys that covered themselves with such glory for their country would expect any pay in any form for their performance, much less a charity benefit. Both are husky fellows and are quite capable of earning their way in the world as they have so ably proven to the world. If either really needed money it would be easy to turn professional and cash in while their popularity lasts. It would be better than taking "benefits," that is if any are left after expenses are taken out. I for one do not approve of such a procedure.

Eternity is the time it took me to run that 200 meters and unlimited space is between the end of that curve up that long stretch to the tape. And I'm through now, I'm hanging up the old spikes", said Eddie Tolan, Olympic 100 and 200-meter champion here this week before leaving for his home at Detroit. "At the start, because I was starting on the inside one of the staggered lanes, I could see Metcalfe next to me and George Simpson next to him. I caught up with Simpson on the curve and with Metcalfe just coming off it. Metcalfe faded back suddenly—" "Yeh, it looked like I stopped to let you go by," Metcalfe broke in. "Boy, you were certainly stepping." "Well," Tolan continued, "I thought you had slowed up for a gather-and-all down that stretch, which I thought would never end, I was tortured by the vision of him.

Then, suddenly, it was all over, and was I glad? "It was the hardest race I ever ran, as I was very tired." "Me, too," said Metcalf, the younger and more emotional of America's aces. "I was tired, yes, sir. These old legs just wouldn't go any faster." From tracks and sprinting glory, Tolan visions a shingle in Detroit, his home, bearing the inscription "Dr. Edward Tolan." He hasn't decided whether "M.D." or "Dentist" should follow. "I'll coach for a while," he said, "and then if I can get money enough together I'll study either dentistry or medicine."

American management there vetoed the appearance of Clarence Muse, popular actor, simply because he was a Negro. A California paper reports the incident as follows: "According to announcements broadcast over KNX Dix and Muse, were to appear in conjunction with the Sharples KNX Gang, in which Muse is the star, known as 'Jackson.' The invitation came from Norman Manning, chairman of the entertainment committee. The troupe was engaged to entertain the residents of the village and their guests. "Following Sharples' announcement over the air, on his daily broadcast, Manning, in an interview with Sharples, informed him that Jackson could not appear; as no Negro entertainers, of any kind, would be permitted in Olympic village. "Muse, a college man, and a composer of many popular songs, is well known, and the insult to the race directed at him came as a distinct shock to thousands who had listened to the broadcast, especially in the face of the international character of the Olympic events. Muse is the author of the popular 'Sleepy Time Down South,' and a new book, titled, 'Way Down South.'" And speaking of the Olympics, I might add that one of the world's best sprint men is Ralph Metcalfe — in spite of his double defeat by Eddie Tolan. He started four yards behind Tolan and Simpson in the 200 meters, and finished 1½ yards behind the winner and less than one-half yard behind Simpson. And mind you, Tolan was running the world's fastest 200 meters ever run around a turn. Read what a California paper says concerning Metcalfe's performance in the 100-meter race: "Ralph Metcalfe was running about fifth at the 75-yard mark and then he started to running. He passed every runner on the track with the exception of his countryman, Eddie Tolan, and he came mighty near doing that. Metcalfe was only two inches behind the winner according to the camera. "Thought Metsalfe Won "Thousands of the fans thought that the Marquette flyer had overtaken the Midnight Express in his last effort for that hundred meters, but the judges said no, and the camera said no that night when the pictures were made. "The race was run something like this. Eddie Tolan of the United States, and Ralph Metcalfe, also of the States, first and second. Arthur Jonath, of Germany, was third with George Simpson, of the States pulling up for fourth. "When that boy Metcalfe digs in and starts running the rest of the field looks as if they aren't in the race. "It was the greatest race ever run in the Olympics." And while Metcalfe was trying against fate, a loved-one was galling and hoping for him. Again we call attention to a news note from the coast: "Mrs. Mamie Metcalfe, mother of Ralph Metcalfe, was among the 80,000 spectators at the Olympic Stadium of last Wednesday, to witness the commendable performances of her son. "It was not originally the intention of Mrs. Metcalfe to attend the Olympics, but so thrilled did she become upon reading day after day the news accounts of her boy, that she decided to make the trans-continental pilgrimage in order that she might be present to see Ralph represent his country in the great international events. "Mrs. Metcalfe is stopping with relatives at 4754 South Harvard." So it is with sports. You must be good and you must get the breaks. Cornelius Johnson might easily have won the high jump, and Beatty, who was "manhandled" at Palo Alto, might easily have captured the 400 meters hurdle event for America. Tolan and Gordon shine brightly under their championship crowns; but the greatness of all of the Negro athletes who went forth for Uncle Sam should be remembered. Cornelius Johnson and Ralph Metcalfe proved the equals of the world's best athletes in the Olympics for America, while Phil Edwards showed the world's best middle distance runners a plenty of class for Canada. Finally, we must acknowledge the boys who did not get up to the Olympics. This list includes James Johnson, a sterling sprinter; Beatty, a classy hurdler; Williams, Hampton's javelin star; and other sturdy athletes.

SAY COLOR BARRED GIRL TRACK STARS SAY COLOR BARRED GIRL TRACK STARS Race Discrimination Prevented Louise Stokes From Competing MALDEN, Mass. — This little city, which is called "the bedroom of Boston," is all stirred up over the treatment accorded Louise Stokes, 100-yard champion of Massachusetts, at the Olympics in Los Angeles. They cannot understand why Miss Stokes did not participate in the 400 meters relay for which she qualified. Inasmuch as Mary Carew, of Medford, who was bracketed with Louise for fourth place in the 100 meter sprint, had been chosen and participated, the athletic rooters and townmen of Miss Stokes are wondering what happened, and eagerly await her arrival. The intense rivalry which exists between Malden and Medford in athletics is traditional, and the folks of Miss Stokes' home town are chagrined that Medford was able to score on them. Many, however, are outspoken and have already attributed the cause to race discrimination. This opinion was audibly voiced by the city editor of the local newspaper, who affirmed that it must be purely a case of color prejudice. It is a strange coincidence that Miss Stokes and Tidye Pickett, the other colored girl who was named for the relay, had been sidetracked.

Losing pitcher - Richardson Herman Marrow Defeats Willis In Opening Round Of Net Tourney SCOTCH PLAINS, N.J.-The victory of Herman Marrow, of Elizabeth, N.J., over William Willis marked the first upset in the opening play of the sixteenth annual American Tennis Tournament here Monday. Willis is rated No. 5 player in Jersey, while young Marrow was recently graduated from the junior ranks. It was a close match throughout. Another Jersey player came to the fore in the person of Logan McWilson, of Montclair, whose win over C. H. Parrish, Jr., of Louisville, Ky., was totally unexpected Parrish, who has long been a contender in the national play, was favored to win over the Jersey player. By virtue of the win in the first round, McWilson should reach the quarter final round. "Like Father like Son," is the quotation for an adage. This tournament proved no exception to the rule. William Willis, Jr., was the favorite to win over Theodore Cousins, of Montclair, N.J. But the Montclair youngster won after a grueling match that lasted nearly two hours. It was unfortunate that the luck of the draw should have caused these leading Jersey youngsters to meet in the first round. Entries revealed that there were 254 players in all of the events. Mrs. J. F. Brock and Miss Ruth Thompson, the hostesses for the week, sponsored a party for the players, Monday night.

Sylvio Cator To Hang Up His Spikes For Good LOS ANGELES, Calif.-Sylvio Cator, Haitian broad jumper, has decided to hang up his spikes for good. He failed in all three of his attempts at the Olympics. He said both of his legs went bad and he had a bruised heel. "I paid my own way here," he told newspaper men, "and have been in strict training, not even touching a cigarette or a drop of wine. It was my third Olympiad, for I am 31 now. I hope to stay two weeks and jump in a meet that would give a world sanction to a record. I have never failed my Haiti before. Then I will go home and throw away my spikes." Cator's father was a general in Haiti and the athlete has been actively engaged in politics in his native country. Tolan Packs Ticket In His Trunk But Is Given Another LOS ANGELES, Calif.-Eddie Tolan, United States Olympic dash star, had railroad officials, an architect and a secretary of the Chamber of Commerce doing a few "spirits" here Saturday, while Tolan was about to train a train for his home at Detroit. Tolan packed his railroad ticket in his trunk and did not discover the oversight until the trunk was on the train and well on the way East. Tolan appealed to P. R. Williams, architect and friend of the athlete, who in turn asked the advice of A. G. Arnold, Chamber of Commerce secretary, who took the matter to railroad officials. Tolan was given another ticket when he promised to return the first one when he reached home.

Gene Addison and Sam Lacy engaged in a pitchers' duel with the former having the best of the googie. Lacy giving way to Gus Frazier in the seventh, while trailing, 2. Both twirlers pitched remarkable ball, at all times, Lacy pitched his first game in several years, staging a wonderful comeback, and he will strengthen the Dales greatly for the balance of the season. Fielding Star Stanley Johnson, in centerfield, proved the fielding star in the night up, racing on either side of the eld to rob the 'Dales of sure hits, anifer, on third base, robbed the Dales of hits by his wonderfulrowing. The 'Dales were com-roved the fielding star in the night up. Bob Bailey started on the mound for the 'Dales in the opener, although a little nervous and wild, pitched a creditable game until he retired in favor of Jakie Levi, in account of the heat. "Runt" white, playing center field, due to the absence of three outfielders, moved the star of the game, making several sensational catches of that looked like sure hits. Green, or the Rajahs, pitched a good game. Longest Hit Barber and S. Johnson starred field for the northeast lads. 'Reds' Woonon played a good ame in left field for the winners. /hile 'Toots' Brown hit one of the longest hit ball seen on the ajahs' field this season, and was nly allowed two bases due to round rules.

Giants and Huntsville divided their dual bill. the Giants out-slugged the Marylands to cop the initial game by the score of 16-14, and the Huntsville lads reversed the dope and out-hit the southwest lads to win the nightcap. 7-6. Harris starred in the field for the Giants, while the heavy hitting of the entire Giant team was the feature. Randolph, behind the bat for the Marylanders in both games, caught the longest hit balls seen on the Maryland diamond this season, while his batting was indeed remarkable. This lad is becoming one of the best catchers in the city; a converted infielder, he is making rapid progress. Robinson, on the mound for the Marylanders, pitched a creditable game. Butler, for the Giants, played a good game in the field. DePriests Whitewashed The LeDroit Tigers whitewashed the DePriest lads in the opening game on their diamond by the score of 4-0. Roy "Reds" Powell toed the mound for the Bengals and pitched one of his very good games. He had the northeast lads completely at his mercy, allowing only three hits. Mace Jefferson was the batting star for the Tigers. Fauntroy returning to the line-up played his usual sensational game afield, making several remarkable catches. Slim Barnes, twirling for the DePriest men, pitched good ball, but the breaks were against him, for with any kind of luck he would have won his game. Gross, in center, Colbert in left, Swenn in short, and Griffin on second, starred in the field for the Villagers. Tigers Scared The Virginia White Sox in the night cap threw a scare in the haunts of the Tigers, but again "Reds" Powell stemmed the tide and the Rajahs again were victorious over the Virginians by the score of 8-7. E. Lewis pitched good relief ball after relieving Slim Wills, and Fauntroy and Sherman Baylor's bats spelled defeat for him. L. Lewis and L.

The game with the Juniors was one of the hardest fought of the season. Pohl was on the mound for the Juniors and held the Browns to six hits, but they were well placed and came at a needed time. Mathews toiled for the Browns and limited the Juniors to three hits for a period of eight innings. He was relieved by Dyson in the ninth. Lewis and Kindon did mound duty on Thursday for the Georgetown team. While Dyson pitched a steady game for the Browns, letting the A.C.'s down with six scattered hits and striking out 12 men.

The Howard female swimmers threw a scare into the Francis ranks by scoring 26 points to give them a close battle for honors in this division.

Northwest North 5224 Saturday-Sunday-Monday August 20-21-22 TIM McCOY in "ROAR OF THE DRAGON" AT THE LINCOLN "ROAR OF THE DRAGON" AT THE LINCOLN Richard Dix, virile RKO Radio star, will be seen at the Lincoln Theatre, Friday to Monday, in "Roar of the Dragon," a stirring spectacle of the Far East, reflecting a vivid panorama of the hazardous frontier with its stately parade of adventure-seekers. Appearing with Dix is Gwilh Andre, famous Danish beauty from Copenhagen who makes her screen debut in the film. Miss Andre, about whom Hollywood has been building a legend of mystery and intrigue, is seen as a Russian noblewoman, one of the pathetic patricians who have haunted the frontier towns of Northern China since the Red Revolution. Truth About Manchuria A striking perspective insight into the Manchurian situation which has plastered the newspapers throughout the nation for months, is presented in "Roar of the Dragon." Unfolding a tale of the experiences of a group of Occidental refugees in a small town, the picture is as graphic as a newsreel in its details of the present chaotic condition in China. Dix depicts a hard-boiled American captain whose river-boat is attacked near the village of Yoo Lu, necessitating port anchorage for repairs. Here he meets the Russian refugee, portrayed by Miss Andre, and assumes leadership of the boat's passengers and the town's inhabitants $t_0$ combat the banditry of a frontier marauder who has been annoying them.

"TOM BROWN OF CULVER," BOOKER Novelty rules this season's pictures and here is one of the most unusual of them all. What is said to be one of the most interesting and novel screen plays of the current season has been booked for early showing at the Booker T. Theatre, according to an announcement yesterday by Manager Clarke. The picture is "Tom Brown of Culver," the Universal production which presents Tom Brown and Slim Summerville in the leading roles, and was filmed partly at Universal City and partly at the famous Culver Military Academy in Indiana. The entire story is told against the background of this well known institution, and is said to tell a most dramatic story of a boy whose father was erroneously credited with being a hero of the World War. A noteworthy feature of "Tom Brown of Culver" is the fact that not a girl appears in it—and yet, it is said, the story is not lacking in intense "heart interest." The list of players appearing with Brown, Warner, and Summerville includes Richard Cromwell, Sidney Tolen, Russell Hopton, Andy Devine, Kit Guard, Willard Robertson, Ben Alexander, and other screen favorites. The picture was directed by William Wyler.

NEGRO MUSICIANS THRILL SPANIARDS Recent reports taken from Spanish newspapers of Madrid, Spain show that a group of Negro musicians including a trio of local youths now traveling thru that romantic country are giving excellent performances to the delight of the Spaniards. The comment below was taken from a Spanish daily and translated by Leon A. Jones, local student. "Presentacion De Las Estrellas Negras" A presentation in Madrid—certainly a lively one—was made by La Banda de Estrellas Negras (the Band of Negro Stars) composed of twenty-two musicians of color who interpret with the utmost zest and finesse, compositions both American and Spanish, fight bulls and portray divers curious acts or antics, which entertain the spectator. The public filled the plaza completely. The program was truly suggestive in this setting. The first role acted by Mr. Alfonso King as a bull spearer, who used three spears or poniards and was the object of great appease. He had to kill the bull—one of 675 pounds a novel breed but hardly got into action, was dramatically thrown. The fighter went to the hospital. Continuing, the young artists, Joselit Gomez and Valentin Ritore displayed two novelty acts from Zaballos. The second one with a cape and female mule came to offer to be a good bull. He was ovationed. In the third act the bull agitators, Don Jose Chamaco y el Hombre de Goma were delightful, they kept the crowd in continuous hilarity and at last their labor was seen to obligate their return for a curtain cell. As clowns of the festival the Estrellas Negras portrayed talent. Good musicians and excellent dancers, their work held the attention of the public without the least shade of boredom. Between times the Negro professor Aquilino, who has assimilated popular Spanish music in a surprising manner and executes on his saxophone such numbers as Fandanguenas, Peteneras, Malaguenas, Milongas, etc., with the most masterful style and the greatest brilliance. This great artist who has captivated audiences from the beginning of his career with admiration and delight of the public, was the object of vociferous and continuous ovations. The finale with the band and the comical bull-fighters give a fight to death with another bull calf in the midst of great applause by the assembly. Well it was a great closing complete in detail, in fact the whole presentation of the Negro Band. (Las Bandas Negras). 3,000 Picnic Thursday At Suburban Gardens On Monday of this week Mirian Chapter No. 4, O.E.S. held a private rience at Suburban Gardens attended by several honor ladies and Sir Knights.

LEAVES FOR BOSTON Miss Grace Conover, head worker at the Southeast House, left Wednesday for Boston, Mass., where she will spend her vacation. "WASHINGTON MASQUERADE" AT REPUBLIC Breakfasts at which presidents are decided on and national crises settled have an echo on the talking screen in Lionel Barrymore's morning meal with political powers in "The Washington Masquerade," Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's dramatic romance of public life and the machinations of lobbyists, which will open Friday at the Republic Theatre. Became a Byword The breakfast decides the start of a political campaign in the picture. It is an echo of the famous "corned beef breakfasts" that Mark Hanna used to stage in Washington. Whenever the famous political organizer and Czar wanted to decide on anything, he summoned his "cabinet" of men high in the political machine for a breakfast at which his colored cook served her famous corned beef hash. There anything from a new president to a national tax was settled on. Barrymore heads the cast as a senator and political ruler whom the vested interests seek to render powerless through the manipulations of a woman. How he comes to his senses, worsts the political gang and triumphs with his party, form the background of a spec- or drama. Karen Morley, who tried with Barrymore in "Arsine Lupin," plays the political charmer, and the cast also includes the new screen "find." Diane Sinclair, Nils Asther, Reginald Barlow, William Collier, Sr., William Morris, Rafaela Ottiano, C. Henry Gordon, Burton Churchill, and Henry Kolker. GEORGE BANCROFT AT BROADWAY The explosive war-time career of a famous "mystery ship" is re-carnated for the purpose of numerous scenes in "The World and the Flesh," latest George Bancroft picture, which comes to the Broadway Theatre on Sunday, for two days. The ship is the Playa de Ensenada, one-time American army transport which was subsequently used for many months as a North Sea scourge of rapacious enemy submarines in those submarine-infested waters, during the World War. In making the scenes for "The World and the Flesh," the Playa de Ensenada is used in and out of San Pedro harbour, California, in the pier and sea sequences of this film, a romance of a Red pirate in the days of the Russian revolution in 1917. The Ensenada has a 65-foot beam, and was constructed to be a transport. After several trips across the Atlantic she was re equipped with numerous hidden guns and sent out as a camouflaged mystery ship to trap enemy submarines.

Garfield School Playground Healthy Baby Contest At the Healthy Baby Contest held on the grounds of the Garfield School Playgrounds, last Friday under the supervision of Miss Evelyn Washington, associate instructor, more than a score of babies were entered, most of whom were accompanied by their mothers and friends. After an address to the mothers by Mrs. Fredericka Sprague-Perry, of Kansas City, Mo., relative to the best methods of promoting health in children, Doctors Pete Johnson and Howard Payne, of Howard University School of Medicine, made very thorough and scientific examinations of each child entrant to determine their outstanding physical qualities as well as their defects. As a result of their tests three were declared winners of first place by a tie score of 94 per cent, they were: Harold Lewis, age 1; Eugene Proctor, age 3, and Wendel Taylor, age 2. Several others were high point scorers, but Miss Washington informed the mothers that certain defects discovered by the physicians were of such import that they should receive remidial treatment at once; such as defective teeth, impaired vision, enlarged tonsils, adenoids, but no case of malnutrition was discovered. Other entrants in the contest were as follows: Fredericka Adams, age 3; Catherine Blackwell, age 3; Junita Chase, age 3; Vincent Cramer, age 2; Florine Harrison, age 2; Lois Harrison, age 3; Hazel Olden, age 3; Charles Proctor, age 2; Reberta Proctor, age 4; Vincent Proctor, age 2; Franklin Swann, age 5; Doris Stewart, age 3; Norvain Taylor, age 3; Maurice Taylor, Age 5; Petricia Taylor, age 2; and Frank Aiken, age 4.

BURROUGHS According to Harry Levette, in the Afro-American of August 11, Tolan is the "Fastest Human,"—but "He's a "nigger right on. He can't run against white runners in Georgia. He can't eat with white runners in Alabama. He can't go to school with white runners in Mississippi. He can't vote with white runn- He can't vote with white runners in South Carolina. He can't ride the train with white runners in Texas. He can't sit beside a white runner in a street car in Florida. He can't pray in church with white runners in Tennessee. He can't pose with white runners in Arkansas. Because he is just a "nigger." Eddie's the "fastest, human"—but Mistreatment shall be his portion as long as life shall last. He's a "coon." Who cares if he ain't got nothin' to eat? He wants to be a doctor, but money is scaree. Who cares? Ellinine Japanese Chinese He can run like hell, but—he's a "nigger" right on. He wins honors for America, but nothing for himself. He must plod right on, passing up eating places while he's hungry. Begging for somebody to take his part so that he can inch along. The better he does, the worse he hurts. Like Cullen, he can declaim: "I who have burned my hands upon a star." The mental and moral reaction which Harry Levette reflects in the above poem is all bunk. What if he is a so called "nigger" in the mind of morons, derelicts, and low bred people in the races of mankind that have the color complex? What does it matter that because of their idiotic attitude Tolan cannot run with the whites in Georgia; eat with them in Alabama; go to school with them in Mississippi; vote with them in South Carolina; ride with them in Texas; sit beside them in a street car in Florida; pray with them in a white church in Tennessee; and pose with them in Arkansas? In athletics, he is every man's superior who cannot do what he has done. That's all. Handicaps are stepping stones, man, and these handicaps did not prevent Tolan from out running the world in California. That's all he was trying to do, and he did it. Now why raise this ubiquitous "nigger question?" The white runners in the seven states listed have enjoyed all the privileges from which they religiously exclude Tolan but what earthly good did it do them in the Olympic meets? Tolan is their superior. Down in their hearts they know it. That is where we want them to know it. That is where it hurts and helps, "Nigger" on their lips doesn't hurt anybody. Color doesn't help you to run, nor does it keep you from mastering your A B C's. So what fundamental good is it anyhow? It was only thrown in by the Divine artist in order to give variety to life and to make the human bouquet pretty. It doesn't add any grey matter to the cells nor does it take any virtue from life. Tolan trained to run in the Olympics and to beat all other runners, regardless of race, color, or country and he did it. His color did not help him to run, nor did his color keep him from running. Of course, he is black right on. For once the Negro race will have to be given full credit, because Tolan's white blood did not run in the Olympics. And thanks to fairness in sports he did not have to turn white to qualify for the feat. The Japs are Japs right on, the Germans are Germans right on, and all the other race varieties are what they were right on. So why shouldn't Tolan be black right on? Poor ass. We always want to "be what we ain't." We "ain't". inferior because we are black! nor are whites superior because they are white. Don't let them get your goat when they call you "nigger." If they were not poor, white trash they would say Negro. Why should a Negro sit down and write poetry to try to make Tolan feel sorry because "he is black right on." He didn't run to turn white. Just being white doesn't really count when you have to meet real men. The ability to outdo them is the thing that puts you ahead in the final count. If running in the Olympics would change the color of a man's skin only the morons in the Negro race would run. Sensible Negroes revel in the beauty of their tantalizing hues, and all other races are satisfied with their race and color. They have been thinking straight long enough to know that color is only incidental. The fact that white skin is worshiped in America in this age does not mean anything fundamental and fixed. As hopeless as it seems America will become civilized in a century or two. When the same Christ who had to smack a man in the eyes to make him see every man as a man, give America the same kind of treatment, she too will see every man as a man. Leave it to Him. He'll do it. When he does, right and not white will be the passport. Run on, Tolan and men like you. Run on. What shall Negroes do until that far away, dim and distant fu- SIXTEEN Who cares? But Eddie's a "nigger." ture heaves in sight? Study their geographies and from them they will find out that there are other places on the map of the United States that will give black men a fair chance to be anything that they are big enough to be, and to run as fast as their feet can carry them. Why in the name of common sense should the poet take up our time pitying Tolan because he cannot go to school with white runners in Mississippi when he had sense enough to go to a better school in Michigan? The whites who shut Negroes out are not superior. Only ill bred whites call Negroes "niggers." Don't get "het up" over it. Eating and riding in public places or carriers are incidental. Neither is social equality; they are only economic equality. It simply means that they are able to pay for what they want and so are you. Those sections and groups that deny the Negro those economic considerations and conveniences are worse off in every way than the sections of the country that do not indulge in such petty nonsense. So why raise this eating and riding question? Those sections and states are the real losers. Of course, Negro victims are temporarily inconvenience and embarrassed, but believe it or not infamous race prejudice is a tonic to resolute souls, Tolan is one of those souls. That's why he won. Don't forget this—Tolan knew his geography. He went to school where he could sit with men who had received the second touch. He got ready to meet men with whom he could not run in Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas, Florida, Tennessee, and Arkansas—and he ran with them on free soil and gave them a run for their money. The best thing about it was that Tolan's black was fast. It did not run on them. It ran from them. Being black doesn't make him dirty. Not having a definite understanding with a bath tub often enough makes white and black physically dirty. Soap and water and deodorants have no race prejudice. It is Tolan's business to use them freely and come clean and thereby teach all with whom he comes in contact that Negroes can run and sweat and smell like June roses right on. This bathing business is our end of the problem entirely. Bathing is a personal duty; smelling is a public offense. We can be very different without being inferior. Teach them that. Levette says that mistreatment shall be the Negro's portion as long as life shall last. Hush, the voice that tells you so. God has millions of whites who have not bowed their knees to the Baal of race prejudice and never will. Thousands of them live in America. That is why we have Fisk, Atlanta University, Virginia Union, Johnson C. Smith, Talladge, Hampton, Howard, Tuskegee and scores of other schools generally supported by whites; and that is why Michigan opened its doors to teach Tolan to read the lore of the ages and to run the games of the ancients. That is why Mayor Murphy and all Detroit are welcoming a man who wins over the world and exults in the fact that he can get what is due him and that he "black right on." Do not forget that God is in this thing called prejudice. Yes he can go to school and complete his medical course. If the National Medical Association hasn't appreciation enough to raise a fund and send him through—God will do for him just what he has done for other Negroes, raise up a white friend who will. Ye, doubting, restless, ones give the Almighty a chance and he will prove His "No good thing will I withhold" and "of one blood" declaration. Do not forget that "the mills of the gods grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine." Do not let this American attitude towards black men make a savage of you. It will do it unless you purpose in your own heart not to let it. Believe in God and the ultimate outcome of justice. The Negro who thinks that his color is a badge of degradation is as far from the truth as the whites who think that just being white makes a man superior and gives him station. Millions of whites are so intoxicated over just being white that they have never been able to get up from the gutter of life—the trash. On the other hand, millions of Negroes are so depressed over having been born black that they take up all of their time pitying themselves and apologizing for their color. Being born white or black is being born equal, biologically, to the rest of human animals. That's all. From that station it is up to us to get up and make the goal in spite of the world, the flesh, and the handicaps. What it takes to beat that triumvirate is put into the black and white race by the Creator. It is their job to develop enough moral stamina and high conceit to feel that they are a part of the first great cause and a greater part of a grand and glorious destiny. That feeling indulged in from childhood until one reaches his majority wakes his soul and lifts it high. Being black does not stop you from thinking that you are a man, in spite of Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas, Florida, Tennessee, and Arkansas, and all their deluded sisters combined. Think it long enough and hard enough and you will become it because "as a man thinketh in his heart so is he." Selah. SEE ONE OF THESE DEALERS TODAY MENTION THE TRIBUNE WHEN BUYING USED CARS THE BEST BUYS IN WASHINGTON JUST THIS AND THAT By Dutton Ferguson Madame Rumor has it out about a young Washington school teacher who borrowed money to go to Europe: "yes, she is visiting seven foreign countries, BUT she borrowed the money to go." Here's a guy who thinks that in the first place it is the business of the teacher as to how she got the money to broaden her experience, contacts, and sense of cultural appreciation. In the next place, if she did borrow the money, she is lucky. During these time, the largest business firms are having great trouble finding necessary loans to stabilize or expand their business. This Washington school teacher is in the business of education. She has made a wise investment with her money, even if she did borrow it.

Patterson spoke before the Young People's Political Study Club Thursday, on "The Communist Party." "We are now in the third year of the greatest crisis the world has ever known," said Mr. Patterson. "There are over fifteen million unemployed. The working people, for the first time in the history of the U. S., are turning their attention towards politics." Pointing out the short-comings of the other three major political parties Mr. Patterson continued, neither the Republicans nor Democrats have come out very strongly against lynching. The Republican party is the traditional party of Negro freedom. The so-called 'best' people of the race bring the Republican party to us. But looking to our colored Congressman, what do we find? DePriest is not standing up against the presence of troops in Haiti. When separate schools for white and Indians in South Dakota were proposed in Congress by a Democrat, DePriest made a feeble stand on the floor against them. After being assured by the Democrats that this would not affect the Negro, DePriest had nothing more to say. When the Negroes on the South Side of Chicago, living in houses owned by DePriest, came asking for reduced rent, and protection against eviction for failure to pay, DePriest himself called out troops to shoot down Negro and white workers to evict them from the houses, until Mayor Germack issued an order against eviction." "Norman Thomas, the Socialist candidate," Mr. Patterson went on, "allowed Negroes to be Jim-crowed in the South, when he spoke there."

We advocate the right to self-determination," he explained, "of the Negroes in the Black Belts, and the state unity of Negroes. We demand the confiscation and turning over of the property of the Soil to the Negroes who have worked for over 300 years on it. The Communist party stands for unemployment insurance for Negro and white workers. Negro and white workers," he stated, "are only coming into their own after the Revolution." "The Army and Navy today are used to protect Wall Street. The police are the guardians of Wall Street, Jim-crowism, etc. Democracy in America is an illusion. The Communists advocate a complete change of the social system and the doing away with classes. This is possible in one generation because it is being done successfully in Russia. Mr. Patterson's talk was followed by discussion and questions from members of the club. The greatest controversy centered around atheism. Said Mr. Patterson, "When one becomes a Communist, he begins to understand why he can be nothing else but an atheism." Mr. Patterson is a member of the Executive Committee of the International Labor Defense. He left the United States for Russia in 1927, and spent three years there, returning in 1931.

FACES POORHOUSE AFTER 24 YEARS IN U.S. SERVICE John W. Dyson Unable To Raise $475 "To Purchase Ten Years Of His Service" Under Retirement Act, So He Will Lose Pension John W. Dyson, 621 C street, southeast, will be forced to retire from his job as laborer in the government service after twenty-four years without a pension. His retirement was due to the economy act. He will fail to receive the pension because he cannot raise the sum of $475.42 to "purchase ten years of his service under the retirement act." fied service and not subject to the benefits of the retirement act. It was not until January 1, 1831, he explained, that by a change of policy this class of men was brought under retirement, and at that time deductions started on account of the retirement fund. They were notified that if they desired to pay up their back deductions for the past ten years on the Dyson's predicament as explained by H. L. McCoy, director of insurance of the Veterans' Administration, is due to the fact that for ten years he was not considered in retirement status and his failure to pay the amount in question for ten years at interest. He was employed in the Water Department of the District Government. "All of my service," said Dyson today, "has been on a per diem basis and during the ten years mentioned no deductions were made from my pay on account of the retirement fund. The retirement law required fifteen years of allowable service for retirement with a pension. I have had about fourteen years of such service, and the $475.42 is needed to purchase those ten years of service mentioned. "I am a poor old man with a feeble wife to support, and it is impossible at this time, and I see nothing in the future for the two of us except the poor house." Typical Case Discussing the case, Mr. McCoy said it was typical of a group of cases arising out of the District of Columbia government. It was at first held, Mr. McCoy explained, that Dyson and others in his per diem status were not in the classi- HAWKINS SPEAKS TO LEGION POST John R.

The Post, by a unanimous vote, expressed its utmost confidence in the bank, and pledged its fullest co-operation. A report of the fourteenth annual convention of the Department of the District of Columbia, American Legion, was made by the Post delegates, which showed that the Post won second place in percentage gains for the year 1932, and was awarded a loving cup trophy, offered annually by the Quentin Roosevelt Post. The Post voted its condemnation of the recent use of the military forces by President Hoover against the B.E.F.; and further directed that a letter of commendation be sent to General Glassford, chief of police, for the efficient manner in which he handled the B.E.F., for more than two months.

AUGUST 19. 1932 fied service and not subject to the benefits of the retirement act. It was not until January 1, 1931, he explained, that by a change of policy this class of men was brought under retirement, and at that time deductions started on account of the retirement fund. They were notified that if they desired to pay up their back deductions for the past ten years on the installment plan, by having part of it taken out each pay day, they could catch up on such payments. Dyson did not do this and consequently, it was explained, he and several others have paid in a sum to the retirement fund since January 1, 1931, but have no pension coming to them. If they pay the difference, .or "purchase" their missing years of service, it was explained, they can be officially placed on the retirement list and begin drawing a pension. Under the interpretation of the retirement law, however, it was explained, it would not be possible to put Dyson on a pension and take out the $475.42 on installments out of his pension. The retirement act became effective in August, 1920, and from that time to December 31, 1930, Dyson paid nothing into the retirement fund, according to records at the Veterans' Administration. Although he has about $13½ years of so-called "allowable" service to his credit, and needs only a total of 15, he would not be able to purchase the slight difference, it was explained, but must fill in the whole of his service by purchasing the missing ten years. In case he does not do this he will be refunded the retirement deduction he paid into the retirement fund with interest. SAYS RELIGIOUS ISSUE DEFEATED RALPH METCALFE Claims Marquette Star Was Given "Works" For Being Catholic LOS ANGELES, Calif.—Rumor has been going the rounds here that Ralph Metcalfe, Margeutte University dash star, was ruled second winner in the 100-meter race at the Olympics because he is a Catholic attending a Catholic university. Friends of the athlete who finished second to Eddie Tolan by a hair's breath, are making sensational charges. These charges, headed by officials of the school he attends, and supported by such authorities as Lawson Robertson, coach of the Olympic team; Charles Paddock, former world's champion sprinter; and Mark Kelly, connected with the sport department of the Los Angeles Examiner, indict the decision in no uncertain terms. University officials sent the following telegram to Metcalfe Monday: "If reasonable grounds found to doubt, fairness, immediate action will be taken with formal protest lodged by you in fairplay to Marquette. Consult Paddock for immediate action. Entire State of Wisconsin back of you." While some hinted at the religious issue, others said rumor had it that a political plot had something to do with Metcalfe being given second place. Many thought Metcalfe had won the race, and the judges had to go into a huddle before a decision was reached. TO ASK CONGRESS TO PROBE TEXAS PRIMARY ELECTION Aid Of DePriest Sought To Bring About Congressional Investigation HOUSTON, Texas.—Henry M. Holden, United States district attorney at Houston for the western district of Texas, formally declined this week in a letter made public, to prosecute Harris County Democratic election judges, for alleged violation of the federal code regulating suffrage rights in congressional elections. The letter was made public by F. S. K. Whittaker, local attorney, who, in representing a group of Negro voters here had made the request for the arrests. The voters claimed they were denied the ballot on account of color. In the meantime, undaunted by this setback, the voters have instituted steps that may eventually lead to the impeachment of Mr. Holden. Citizens were busy this week addressing communications to influential political figures throughout America, asking that they endeavor to have pressure brought to bear on the local prosecutor to the end that he will swear out warrants for the arrests. It is charged in the communications that the election judges are criminally guilty of having violated federal statutes in refusing to allow Negroes to vote in the July 23 Democratic primary election in which several United States congressmen came up for nomination. F. S. K. Whittaker, local attorney, who is representing Negro citizens who have sworn of affidavits that they were denied the ballots in the primary elections, has filed with the United States district attorney here a brief citing the law, which he states, shows conclusively that federal laws were violated in the conduct of the primary. Mr. Holden was quoted in the Houston Defender last Saturday as stating that the federal laws had been violated, but the paper charged that he was attempting to dodge the responsibility of prosecuting the election judges. Mr. Holden is said to have advised citizens here not to press for warrants and prosecution. In letters sent at last week mention is made of all facts in the case and it is asked that pressure be brought to bear to force Mr. Holden to perform his duty. Congress May Probe Oscar DePriest, United States congressman of the first district of Illinois, is expected to be asked to address the congress when it reconvenes in December, asking for a congressional investigation into elections held in the state of Texas. A number of those to whom letters have been written about the attitude of Mr. Holden, are United States senators who are coming up for reelection in November and who are dependent upon the vote of their Negro constituents for retention in office. The Holden case will most likely be axploited as a national issue. Drinks Lysol By Mistake While he was allegedly in a half intoxicated condition, Allan Smith, 27, drank a small quantity of lysol by mistake at his home, 2287 Ninth street, northwest, early this week.

Davis Receives Purse Upon Retirement After nearly a half century of faithful and efficient service, Annias Davis, messenger, was retired from the United States Civil Service Commission. A purse was presented to Mr. Davis Tuesday by Civil Service Commissioner George R. Wales on behalf of the commission's force. Commissioner Jesse Dell and a large number of officials and employees attended the presentation ceremony. Davis delights in reminiscences of Theodore Roosevelt, Gen. John C. Blank, and the many other Civil Service Commissioners under whom he served. Among those from whom he received congratulations on his long service was his nephew, Col. Benjamin O. Davis, U. S. A., now stationed at Tuskegee Institute, Ala. Davis was born in Santa Fe, N.M., 1860. He was appointed to the Civil Service Commission as a watchman on November 24, 1886, and in 1908 was promoted to messenger in which capacity he served up to his retirement. D.C. DELEGATION RETURNS FROM BAR ASSO. CONVENTION Miss Ollie M. Cooper, secretary, School of Law, Howard University, and assistant secretary of the National Bar Association; Frank W. Adams, assistant United States Attorney; Lefayette M. Hershaw, professor of law, Terrell Law School and examiner in the Land Office; Perry W. Howard, former assistant United States attorney general; and Charles H. Houston, vice dean of the School of Law, Howard University, have returned to the city from Indianapolis, where they attended the eighth annual convention of the National Bar Association, August 4-6. Miss Cooper was accompanied by Mrs. L. Marion Poe, attorney of Newport News, Va., who also attended the convention. All of the Washington delegates state that the convention was the most successful convention ever held by the Bar Association The convention was greeted by the attorney general of the State of Indiana and the mayor of the city of Indianapolis. A remarkable fine report was presented by the president, Jesse S. Heslip, of Toledo, Ohio. Vice Dean Houston read a paper on "Lawless Enforcement of the Law." The three outstanding recent achievements of the Bar Association have been the aggitation of employment of Negroes on Hoover Dam, which has resulted in seventeen Negroes being now employed on that project, co-operation in the Texas primary fight in the Supreme Court of the United States, and presentation of the abuses of law enforcement officers against Negroes to President Hoover's National Commission on Law Observance and Enforcement. During the coming election the Bar Association plans to keep a careful check on the altitude of the various candidates toward Negro citizenship. It is preparing a questionnaire which will be submitted to all candidates for office to determine their attitude toward recognition and enforcement of race rights. Miss Ollie M. Cooper was re-elected assistant secretary of the association, and Mr. Frank W. Adams was elected regional director for the sixth district. Forced to Marry Girl, State Alleges He Killed Her WINDSOR, N.C.—(CNS)—Andrew Carter, son of a well-to-do farmer in this district, is in jail, held without bond for the murder of his wife, Lottie Bunch Carter who was found dead in bed Wednesday morning, August 10. Two other youths are held as material witnesses by the authorities. They are John Bond and Richard Askew. Although no evidence of foul play was found upon her body, a coroner's jury held that the woman either met her death as the result of strangulation or neglect. The young wife was to become a mother in a month and Carter had been forced to marry her. He later deserted her and was compelled to provide for her support. Carter alleges that he went to his home Tuesday night but finding the door locked he was unable to enter. He claims that he went to his father's home, 200 yards away and spent the night. On returning home with Bond and Askew the following morning, he found his wife dead. The authorities are suspicious of his story as both Bond and Askew testified that Carter found the front door unlocked Tuesday night and that they discovered that the windows to the bedroom were likewise unbolted.

ROBERT BRISCOE HEADS GALILEAN FISHERMEN One of the most enthusiastic and inspiring three-day sessions in the history of the Supreme Tabernacle, Order of Galilean Fishermen, was recently held at the Zion M. E Church, Rev. E. O. Parker, pastor, Wilmington, Delaware. In spite of the great odds against which the Order has been struggling for the last three years, the reports from the different jurisdictions showed that the Order was more than holding its own numerically and financially. The next grand session will be held in 1934 in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Robert Briscoe of Washington, D. C., the dean of the order and its former chief executive, was recalled to serve for the next two years as its supreme ruler, succeeding Joseph P. Evans of Baltimore, Md., who declined renomination. The other officers elected at the session are as follows: George Hunter, supreme deputy ruler; Phileman Phillips, supreme associate ruler; Jennie B. Lee, supreme financial secretary; Martha E. Duffan, supreme recording secretary; Josiah F. Henry, treasurer; E. J. Woodward, supreme chaplain; Martha Jones, supreme conductress; Anthony Cunningham, supreme inner guard; Fannie Wilson, supreme outside guard.

E. Kelly, merely received this amount and issued a receipt in the regular routi This did not constitute a reinstalment. The laws of the order specifies that it is only within the poer of the grand exalted ruler reinstate the Pride of Newa Lodge. He stated that he is ready to justice to the suspended lodge a willing to hear their case. had his trial board ready at no Saturday to go over the suspension, but the Newark delegation did not report at the designat hour. $35,000 For Education Mr. Wilson intimated that the report put out that the lodge had a large deficit was circulated to the order harm. Court actions beleaved to have been fostered by D. Wright has been the main cause of the order spending large sums said the Elk's ruler. In connection with this expenditure the ord gave over $35,000 this year to the cause of education, and is planning to give at least $30,000 this year in scholarships and other forms of education to worthy boy and girls. Despite the wide spread depression Mr. Wilson says he will not cut down an appropriation for education. He says he will suffer a slash in his own salary and as other officers to take cuts before he will curtail in his educational program. He pointed out that they were sixteen boys and girls who were helped by the order and graduated from schools last year. Four of these finished at Howard University. Education Pet Hobby Education is the pet hobby of the "Little Napoleon" of the Elk as Mr. Wilson has been daubed by his friends. It is on this subject that he really unhosoms himself. This leader of the greatest fraternal order in the world has a mani for work and really gets a kick out of solving difficult problems and meeting the attacks of those who are attempting to thwart the program which the order is fostering. Through it all he enjoys a good joke, a good show and the association of men who are doing things in America. There was some talk about Columbia Lodge here not cooperating and would refuse to send delegates to the convention. After a recent address by the grand exalted ruler before this lodge the body endorsed the grand exalted ruler and is planning to send its band to Atlantic City. Greeted In Newark In Newark and New York over the week-end, Mr. Wilson was greeted by huge throngs and given a cheering reception in both cities. One cannot help liking the man after talking with him. If there is a thing like "it" the leader of the Elks has plenty of it. His personal magnetism draws men toward him and he has the ability to hold them. Those who do not fit in with the plans of the order are speedily dispensed with. Through the thousand and one details neces- sary to holding an annual convention Mr. Wilson manages to see that every one is carried out and gives his personal supervision to every department of this great organization of men and women.

Whiting, pastor of the Friendship Baptist Church, and member of the executive committee of the Southwest Center, short talks were heard from prominent citizens and officials. Rev.

DOCTORS Segregated Institution Being Opposed By Manhattan Medical Society NEW YORK.—The executive committee of the Manhattan Medical Society flayed Senator David A. Reed, Republican, Pennsylvania; the American Legion and the National Medical Association in endorsing a jim-crow hospital for colored veterans. The bill for the jim-crow hospital was introduced by Senator Reed, January 26, and referred to the committee on finance. The bill proposes to erect a colored hospital somewhere in Pennsylvania for colored veterans at a cost not to exceed $1,200,000. The American Legion and the National Medical MARKETING and COOKING HINTS Association endorsed the proposed project. In scoring the jim-crow hospital the executive committee of the Manhattan Medical Society said in part: "John Thomas Taylor; vice-chairman of the National Legislative Committee of the American Legion, under date of May 26, in a letter to Commander Matthew W. Boutte, accepted responsibility for the introduction of Senator Reed's Bill S3302 and states that the bill 'was prepared and introduced in response to the resolution adopted by our National Convention at Detroit calling for a hospital in the North devoted exclusively to colored veterans. Prominent colored physicians throughout the country are very anxious that such a hospital be established. "We are informed that the National Medical Association has officially put itself on record as the advocate of such an institution as evidence by letters written by the president, general secretary, and chairman of their executive committee. So it seems that it is the combined wish of the American Legion and the National Medical Association to establish another jim crow veterans' hospital for our military heroes. It is an aim that is unworthy of both organizations THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, AUGUST 19, 1932 and it is an aim that in our opinion the membership of both organizations will not support when it is sclearly understood with all of its implications. May we hope for the day when the American Legion and the National Medical Association will formally reverse their present position on this matter. It has not sanction on military, moral or professional grounds. "It is with deep regret that we have to accept such expressions as authoritative. At this time we would submit that none of these three officers referred to above were veterans of the World War, or any war, and we do feel that it was possible for them to have served their country as a member of some military organization at that time. Under the bill as introduced by Senator Reed it would be possible to send Crispus Attucks, were he alive, to a segregated hospital at—let us say—Jackson, Mississippi, were one established there, since Senator Reed's bill reads 'colored veterans of all wars.' It is proper at this juncture to state in general the position of the Manhattan Medical Society, not only as regards the question of segregated Negro hospitals, which has been adequately treated and unanimously approved by the society under date of Jan- uary 28, 1931, in an open letter to Mr. Edwin R. Embree, president of the Julius Rosenwald Fund, Chicago, Ill. In this letter it is stated: 'We maintain that a jim-crow set-up per se produces a sense of servility, suppresses inspiration, and creates artificial and dishonest standards.' Our position is the same today as regards any jim-crow set-up and particularly in relation to hospitals and the training of Negro doctors and nurses. We also are of the opinion that the National Medical Association does not express or represent the majority of Negro physicians of America. Our estimate of its membership is less than 500 as of this year, in comparison with the 4,000 practicing Negro physicians in America today. "There can be no quibbling over the matter of segregation of Negroes. If segregation is beneficial we should encourage it; if not, we should fight it. If it is a benefit, then it must be beneficial to the Negro group as a whole. If it is of no benefit, then it should be opposed. We cannot afford to condone and accept segregation in one direction and condemn it in another. It is this straddling, mostly on the part of so-called intelligent Negroes and apparently well-meaning whites, that has so far retarded ed the progress of the group to full manhood status. That segregation benefits certain Negroes no one will deny, but that is no reason for indorsing or advocating it. Reasoning on the same basis one could well condone rapine, murder, burglary or any other major crime. Every act benefits someone, but the real question is, how many does it benefit, and in what way? "It is axiomatic that segregation connotes inferiority on the part of the segregated, else there would be no need for it. Experience teaches us that inferior accommodations and treatment always accompany segregation, even of the de luxe variety. For Negroes, therefore, to accept or ask for a segregated hospital is to ask for inferior treatment of sick and disabled veterans. ¾ cup canned milk diluted with ¾ cup water 1 cup pastry flour ½ teaspoon salt Peel onions and cut into ¼-inch slices.

When Frosting Cake To prevent the top layer of a cake from sliding when frosting it, hold it in place with toothpicks. SHAD ROE A GOOD DISH Someone ought to write a book to tell the praises of shad roe. You can do so many things with it. Buy it in cans, and so you never have to wait for shad season. And it's as firm and delicious as any fresh roe you ever saw. Have it for luncheon today. Split the roe from two cans and sauté it in bacon fat. Curl the bacon to go with it. Then make lemon butter by adding lemon juice to melted butter, beating it up and pouring over the roe. Serve it garnished with the bacon, lemon and cress. With it serve crisp brown bread and fried bananas. Do this by cutting the bananas in two crosswise, marinating in lemon and grenandine, dip them in crumbs, then egg, then crumbs, and fry them in deep, hot fat. A marvelous combination all 'round. And they can be stuffed with peanut butter and sauté. MERINGUE Beat whites until stiff. Add sugar and beat until creamy. Spread over cake. Set, on flat pan and bake 7 minutes in moderate oven. Cool and serve. This takes 2 egg whites and 4 tablespoons of sugar. PHYLLIS WHEATLEY Y.W.C.A. NEWS Summer program continues as scheduled.

Chicago, New York, Los Angeles ees es Ne ee FRIDAY, AUGUST 19, 1932 Ce HOOVER'S ACCEPTANCE SPEECH President Hoover's acceptance speech will go down as his masterpiece up to date. Although poorly delivered at Constitution Hall it went over big on the radi. The President was frank and went into detail. For the first time he makes clear his attitude on prohibition. How- ever, his plan is not’ workable. No plan will be as long as the Federal government is responsible for the police power to regulate the traffic. =. The President was frank in defending high tarriff for the capitalist. His explanation of depression was not as convincing as it might have been. He was silent .on Russian recognition which will come up prominently in the next.administration. How much would Russia increase our foreign trade. if we would only let her? Russian trade might help. balance our budget along with the collection of our foreign accounts due us. While President. Hoover :was frank and specific in the treating of the various, subjects in his acceptance speech, where is there any evidence in his past performances to lead us to believe that he would put this new program into action? Frankly, we have little confidence in Mr. Hoover’s perform- ance. His speech was the exception for its frankness but “Herbert Hoover, as our next President keep his prom- ? We doubt it. He has failed miserably as our present President and we see no characteristic in him to lead us to believe that he will carry out this masterpiece of a speech. += President Hoover has had every opportunity to show his ability and inclination to discharge hic duty to his coun- try. He has failed. . Bven his thirty-two commissions fail to impress us. 2 i He has permitted this. panic to-run along ever since he has been in office and. has done little-to check or offset it and offered nothing to establish a system proof against another panic. With millions of. his. fellow citizens out of work, starving and dying, not the.first-aid has he offered them. He did send the army against about 10,000 jobless, hungry, starving Americans and drove them out of their Capital City for which they bled.and suffered -to keep “safe for Demo- eracy.” WHERE ARE HOOVER'S REDS? - What alibi will President Hoover manufacture now for an excuse for having called out the army and sending it against 10,000 jobless, hungry and starving American vet- erans, driving them out of their Capital City? His specially ordered grand jury investigation, with all the power of the Department of Justice and District Attor- ney’s office failed to find a single Red responsible for the so- called riot which ended in the “battle of Washington.” Notwithstanding the authorities had forty-seven sup- posed Reds locked up, every one had to be released for lack of evidence to hold them. This discredits President Hoo- yer’s charge that the Reds were responsible for his calling obt the army. He also charged that less than 50 per cent of the bonus tharchers were veterans. Each of the three men indicted by his specially instructed grand jury are veterans, with over- Seas service and one is the possessor of the distinguished fervice cross. How does the President feel over that? The jury sought everything it could against the bonus marchers, not one thing to favor them. An affidavit was ten- dered the grand jury which charged that the Department of Justice had planted agents among the veterans to start the riot. But Hoover's specially instructed grand jury on the hunt for Reds could not consider this affidavit. We wonder if the knowledge of department agents planted among the veterans, was the basis for President Hoover's statement that less than 50 per cent were not veterans? It is a fact, which Gen. Frank T. Hines, director of the Veterans Bureau substanciates, that more than 90 per cent of the bonus marchers were bonafide veterans and more than two-thirds of them saw oversea service. Now that the President's grand jury has finished itswork and indicted three honest to goodness veterans, with no Reds anywhere in evidence, and since President Hoover openly charged that Reds were responsible for his calling out the Army and he openly charged that less than 50 per cent of the are true, what will President Hoover do about it? Where Bonus Marchers were veterans and neither of the charges are his Reds? TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT By Johnnie Williams Tt is a sad case.

His statement ‘reads: “.. .", Some of our ‘big men,’ including important advertis- ers, fail to appreciate the im- portance of weekly newspa- pers. Their influence on pub- lie opinion exceed that of all other publications in the coun- oe It must be apparent to the read- er that the white weeklies are up against a keen competition for every town of any size has one or more white dalies to compete with. In the Negro fielll the weeklies have no such competition to con- tend with, for with one exception there are no dailies, and but very few bi-weeklies’ or tri-weeklies, Therefore, the Negro weekly cov- ers a distinct field among twelve millions of citizens that eannot be compared with any other medium of the fourth estate, ‘ Just as Mr, Brisbane says, how. ever, there are many “big’ men” and important advertisers who en- tirely overlook the tremendous opinion-creative power of the week- lies, and but very few of them seem to even recognize the exis- tence of the Negro weeklies, The very fact that this condition ° "We . A Woman’s Viewpoint BLACK GODS The only trouble with ‘ By BEATRICE M. MURPHY lence religion is that ther A week or two ago the colored newspapers carried once more ar- ticles on the discovery of black Madonnas which, so the papers stated, was further convincing proof ‘that the Mother of Christ was black. | Now I am only a mere human ‘being—a Negro, too—and can't ‘claim to have “inside dope” on the matter, but it seems to me that it is time the nationality of God is settled once and for all. Let the Negro worshipper believe that Christ was a black man, if he is so narrow-minded that he can find goodress and peace and love only in one of his own race. Some Negroes seem to have been xo busy trying to settle the color of God's skin, that they have missed out on the ‘most important point of ail, which is that God has no skin. The man who depicts God as black, or as white, is simply flaunt- ing his ignorance, for the Bible teaches us that “God is a Spirit, and they that worship him, wor- ship in Spirit and in truth.” Haying settled then that God can be neither black nor white, let us pass on to the next point. Since one knows that a sheet is white when clean and dark when dirty, is not the Negro justified, if he wants to, in wanting a clean heart and soul? And since white typi- fies cleanliness, can't he ask to be washed whiter than snow? I’ve never heard of a Negro putting black sheets on his bed, simply be- cause he is black, and the opponent —shall T say, white. Has a Negro ever been accused of aping the white man when he puts on a clear collar every morning? It’s white, isn't it? Well, if he wears white collars because they are clean, wh) can't he worship God because he [wants a clean soul—not because the white man does so? It has been the Negro’s religior which has largely been responsible for the progress he has made. It has been his faith in the Infinite that has kept a song on his lip: eee i ets test ts inawe te to ing to. do but loiter around parks, ‘one ought to stay home. If that is too idlesome, then there are always books to read and study. We could make useful the hours of idleness by filling up our mental reserviors. And, besides, the time given books and other studies brings a rich and inestimable reward. We are praying that this thing does not repeat itself. We would like our reputation as a mass-to be as fine and irreproachable: as is possible. Further, we must learn to avoid people (as much as is possible) who anger or annoy us.

TIf T cannot meet you on peaceful tyme: I will THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, AUGUST 19, 1932 'is true indicates that there is a ‘wonderful field for the develop- ment for some of our enterpris- ing publicists, especially in these times, for sentiment and even pre. judice is given sway rapidly in the face of definite and _conerete facts that are presented clearly and convincingly in terms of tangi- ble and commercial advantages, As this writer has indicated on several occasions -in this column, this unlimited potential business cannot be secured merely on a racial appeal. The Negro weekly must be more than just a-weekly operated by Negroes, It must thoroughly cover the Negro field. It must™ be representative in thought and opinion and not mere- ly a house organ to propagandize specific efforts. * The Negro weekly must be all- embracing, non-partisan and’ inde- pendent. It must know its readers, their ayocations, their _ income, their manner of living, their spend- ing power, ete. and the Negro weekly must be in position to clearly analyze its circulation on the above basis. It is quite significant that the Negro weeklies who carry _ the most legitimate advertising recog- nize the above facts and their power and profit, is increasing in proportion to their willingness to adapt recognized standards and policies in conducting a weekly that truly represents all Negroes and at the same time conforms to the technical requirements of the large national advertisers. The only trouble with the Ne- |gro’s religion is that there ts too much religion, and now enough Christianity. "There's too much blaming God, when he ought to realize God only helps those who help themselves. Too much church- going and preaching, and not enough practicing, The Negro must recognize, first of all, that God is a spirit—that God has neither form nor color that is comprehensible to the hu- man being. God is that part of every human being that is lovely ‘and kind and good. God is that longing in every man’s soul, ‘no matter what his race, to express the unexpressible—that reaching toward the most beautiful thing life holds, which is never wholly accomplished, although some -ap- proach near enough to enjoy. for a time, That God is the perfume ‘of the rose, the song of birds, the ‘beauty of spring, the ripple of the brooks ‘God is love, truth, beauty, God is that something’ in and around us that makes us happy, which helps us to love our fellow- 'men and put up with those we can't love. and that prompts us to stick to the right when we would go wrong. God is everything worthwhile that we are not and would like to be. ; When the Negro has reached this stage in his reasoning, when he can see God everywhere in ev- erything, he will be no longer bothered by the ey discussions as to color, ete. The world is cer- tainly reaching a disastrous state when man must pause in his wor- ship to fight over color. What the Negro needs to he con- cerned with is not so much whether the angels in heaven are white or ‘black. He wants to live the kind of life here that will assure his getting there. He wants more | practical Christianity. The rest | will take care of itself, Rest assured that the man who wastes his time trying to settle God's color doesn’t know very much about Him, And even though it be a disap- pointment, remember that God is a | Spirit—witheat woolly hair! | not meet you at all.

With guns, with tanks, with gas bombs, the great U. S. Army rout- ed and put to flight the tattered remnants of the B, E. F. This feat will probably not go down in his- tory as another victory of Manila Bay. No chronicler will have the temerity to mention this exploit. The flag of our country must for- ever fly at half-mast here. ‘Yet’ we may safely count upon such results when armed men go forth’ to suppress riots, uprisings and revolts with the unarmed. For the man with a gun will always find a good excuse to use it, just as a nation with a great army will contrive eventually to get into some kind of a war. The thing is as inevitable as election. The strength of alltyranny comes grad- ually with the knowledge of in- creased power. How much better it would have been for America gt in July, 1982, our Army had been unprepared. Had we put our trust in diplomacy rather than in the cavalry, this blot would not mar our record, Amid all the arguments who can say where the direct blame lies? No one, perhaps. The sympathy of the country is with the soldier who was ordered to this duty as well as with the bonus marchers. The only, thing we are gare of is that a blunder has beef commit- ted and a blunder that involves guns nearly always terminates in tragedy. Two veterans are dead who not so long ago marched forth to fight for America, cheered on by the very militarist sentiments that the other day struck them down, Those who are preoccupied with the manufacture of armaments will want to utilize them, of this you may be sure, Yes, the Army is always prepared. And some of it; sallies into enemy territory are as useless and ignoble as the re- cent charge on Camp Anacostia, ~ When we must pay for arms to ‘ill our hungry countrymen then it seems to me that the ultimate charge against militarism has been written. THE BONUS MARCHERS Indianapolis Recorder Bonus marchers, veterans of the World War ignored victims of the drastic economic situation sought relief at Washington and were literally told to go to the devil. Hunger stricken citizens, mén, women, and children, colored and white, ‘were figuratively told -to “Get thee Hence Satans” we know not of you. And, as if that were not enough, these one time defend- ers of Democracy and of the flag on the battle fields of France, if not elsewhere, were driven from the nation’s capital like so many avowed enemies of law and order, Washington's policy in handling the victims was as stupid as it was unnecessarily harsh. A circum- stance which is rightly being term- ed as very regretable. We are not unmindful of the fact that the gov- ernment had to act promptly to curb the real reds who hid them- selves under the cloak of the War Veterans program. ‘The fact remains however, that the bonus money applied for could have gone to actual veterans only and not to the red agitators. It would have been far better to pay the veterans than have the neces- sity to club them away from the hations’ eapitgl—their capital. HERBERT HOOVER—THE GREAT HUMANITARIAN independent (Fhiuladelphia) The sight of a government turn- ing its police and soldiers loose to Ii defenseless, men who buts short time ago had defended their country in a national crisis is so horrible that it has left our citizens stunned and humiliated, This colos- sal act of ingratitude is all’ the more inexplicable. when an inves- tigation shows that these bonus marchers had given no provocation for the attack. Here was a group of destitute men, former soldiers of the’ United States army, who assembled in Washington to ‘present their de- mand for the payment of the bon- us. This is lawful. Washington is full of lobbyists. Almost all the national corporate interests keep people in pee the whole of the congressional session to ad- vance their ‘ieular interests by appropriate Fezieiath ion. - Tt is true the camping method of the bonus seekers was not orthodox, but it was the best these starved and rag- ged martyrs could conceive. ‘The President would not treat = their ae ae and one interpreted, their staying in Washington as an attempt at intimidation, This Congress, that has voted out of our national trea- nearly two billion five hun- million dollars for the relief of corporate interests, said ther Ret spare even a cent for the most needy of the war vet- wn a aa ar eee ee een cg are coe standing, could have enacted a law Jo Saywayryeo snuog yz ulsepat 0} those veterans who were in dir need. It is said that this would not entail payment to more than 20 per cent of the veterans, — ‘Throughout Hoover's administra- tion he has been out of sympathy with the grievances of the poor and needy. It is only the powerful that can command his aid. Hoover could nat be convinced that it was proper for Congress to appropriate for the Mississippi flood victims. He insisted it was not a governmental concern, and that they should be left to the doubtful aid of private subscription, He stood adamant against, all pleas to permit individuals to share in the two-billion-dollar loan pass- ed to aid corporations. It is not surprising that the vet- erans did not accept the President's word or that of congressional lead- ers who claimed that to pay. the soldiers would bankrupt the coun- try. This same hue and cry was raised when the soldiers first de- manded the bonus. It was again raised when a demand was made for the payment of half of the bonus certificates. Hoover vetoed it on the ground it would seriously embarrass the government, and it became a law over his veto, ‘The bonus veterans had been in Washington several months, Presi- dent Hoover had refused to parley with their leaders or to take steps to pacify these disgruntled, hungry men, He looked upon their de- mand as an insult, Other congres- sional leaders attempted to under- stand their complaints. The Presi- dent sat supinely by, inviting. the inevitable trouble that has come to pass. After Congress adjourned, and with no one to restrain him from his tyranny, it was no longer necessary for the President to sup- press his smouldering resentment ‘at the spectacle of these bonus vet- erans haunting Washington. So he ordered the police and soldiers to clear the camp and raze the shacks that housed them. Infantry, tanks, bayonets, sabers, gas—a night at- tack—put to the torch—screaming Women—crying _ babies—wild-eyed men—gray clouds of tear gas roll- ing across muddy flats—all this contrived to make for the veterans a nigh of hell. The cavalry was called in to ride down the defense- less foe, the country’s patriots. They made a good job of it—two were killed and scores injured. The next day, when the country revolted against this massacre, the Secret Service immediately ' ar- rested forty-seven Communists, among whom was Ford, the Negro candidate for Vice President of the Communist Party, and attempted to accuse them as the cause of the government activity against the bonus veterans. Great. publicity was given to this Communist raid, But this sort of cover-up was even too dastardly for a Republican press, and-the President, fearful of the effect on the colored vote, ord- ered Ford’s immediate release, and he was escorted by a police ear through the State of Maryland and released on its boundary. We are told that between 400 and 500 of the bonus seekers were Negro veterans. Four of these were badly injured by this merci- less onslaught of the President's cavalry. All ‘the veterans in that hovel camp lived side by side. The Ala- bama “cracker” slept in the same barracks and ate at the same table with his Negro comrade from Georgia. The color line had fad- ed. Poverty and human misery had reduced them all to the same level. The night of the debacle white and black veterans filled the roads leaving Washington Homeless men, some with their wives and children, going they knew not where, set adrift in the night by that great humanitarian, Herbert Hoover.

And So ee the fulj meaping of one the BEST NEWS OF THE NATION’S CAPITAL KELLY MILLER Says: WHY 1 AM A NON PARTIZAN, J am a non-partizan on principle, and not by policy. I am a non- pertizan during political cam- Paigns as well as between cam- paigns. Towards the end of the lact century, I began the study and analysis of political and. public questions. About that time the Republican party was _ breaking away from its basic principle of human rights and went a whoring after the gospel of greed. Up to that time I hac been thoroughly imbued with the doctine of the Grand Old Party. I was taught that the Republican Party could do no wrong, the Democratic Party could do no right. I entered the | civil service of the government un- der President Arthur at the age of twenty and served under Grover Cleveland. I noted the liberalizing influence of that. high "minded statesman upon the hide bound Rarrowness of the Democratic Party. Under the rapid succes- sion of Democrat and Republican administrations that followed dur- ing the past twelve years I could not discern any comprehensive dif- ference of treatmest of the two, touching the wellbeing of my race, I sat in the galleries of the House and Senatt and witnessed the Re- publican managers barter away the fate of the Federal Election Bill in exchange with Southern Democrats for the free coinage of silver, These things made a deep impression on my youth and mind, I saw the debilitating effect of po- litical sycophancy upon our leading Negroes. I used to see Senator Bruce go in and out of the U. S. Senate. I heard the great Doug- lass as Recorder of Deeds say that he was “willing to stay and ready t. go” under a Democratic admin- istration. In these days John M. Langston bolted the Republican or- ganization in Virginia and was elected to Congress. I saw Lynch, Langston, 4Smalls, Mille®, Cheat- ham, Ohara, Murray and White on the floor as members of Congress, All of these were members of the Repyblican Party. All of these averted vehemently that _ their grievance against the Republican Party was growing to the break- ing point. I knew, with greater or less degree of intimacy every Negro office holder from Frederick Douglass to Perry Howard. All of these, between campaigns, were vo- cal with complaints against the sins of omission and commission committed by thte G.0.P. against the rights of the Negro. But I al- So noticed that as campaign time approached and’ after they had been “Seen” by the manipulating bosses, they, every’ mother's son of them forgot their grievances and became rhapsodists for the glory and grandurg of the party of Lin- coln and Sumner. Thev all remind- ed me of the country dancer in the backwoods of Scuth Garolina who always got religion regularly when the revival season*eame on but as regularly backslid when the dane- ing season. rolled around. I could not and cannot discern in their ac- tion or utterances any intellectual uderstanding of moral conviction. They seemed to me to be wholly in quest of loaves and fishes. I never knew any Negro leader who evinced any profound gonviction a. most significant movements ever to occur on American soil, , Fully two months ago, The Tri- bune called the attention of Con- gress and the Administration to the gravity of the conditions de- veloping at Anacostia; and warned that if the powers that be did not handle the incident sanely, care- fully, instead of merely’ being amused, the result would be dan- gerous and perhaps bloody, eq ®t Thursday night it happen- Washington called for help; and U.S. soldiers, armed with’ gas, guns, bayonets and sabers, charged citizens of the United States who were occupying property which be- longs to their Government. Presi. dent Hoover had no choice last Thursday night; he is sworn to up- hold law and order, but he did have a choice when the great octopus- like agitation began, and his fail ‘Ure to exercise that’ choice at the Tight time proved exceedingly un- fortunate, to say the least. , The Tribune maintains the posi- that Congress shea Tene it Congress si ve the bonus measure; that the Ad- ‘ministration should have supported the bill. It maintains this posi- tion: because it knows that the flimsy “no money” exeuse for kill- ing the measure is not justified, when ynillions of dollars sie being loaned big business every day, millions more are beitig wasted in the futile attempt to enforce the farce of Prohibition. BOOK REVIEWS By Wallace Thurman an: A. L. Furman (The Macaulay Company —New York City). Having but recently read Edward G, Perry's press release on the new literary policies of Wallace Thur- man, even without knowing any- thing of the literar~ work of Abra- ham L. Furman, I ean understand the’ great difference, in text and theme, = this latest Thur- man book anything previous that be hes written, or at least to all thé previous works (ae there is nothing racial about “The Interne,” and we grasp the fact “THE INTERNE” to the basic principles of the Re- publican Party excep‘ as they mm actéd directly or indirectly upon their personal fortgne. Even to- day, in the campaign now immin- ent, I doubt that you will find a single Negro who will enthusiasti- cally throw his hat over the moon for Herbert Hoover unless he ex- pects to gain some personal politi- cal advantage by his exuberant en- thusiasm. If Hoover could learn of the.volume of abuse which the Negro leaders heaped upon him during the last three years as con- trasted with the encomiums in which these same men as spell- binders will indulge during the campaign he would get a good guide of Negro political psycholo- gy. On tke othe: hand, amidst all of these politieal happenings, I noted the attitude of the Democratic party which was characteristically unfriendly to the political claims of my race. I noted the leaders who sought and secured recogni- tion under Democratic control. I readily recall Thompson, minister to Hayti, Taylor, minister to Li- beria, Trotter, Recorder of Deeds, and Adams, ‘nominated Register of the Treasury. I also observed that the unfriendly attitude of the Democratic party was dictated by the Southern contingent, and that this Southern component war steadily growing less and, less con- trolling on Democratic pplicy to. wards the Negro. In later years I found that under ei¢h: years of Woodrow ees, the race, com- prehensively speaking, fared as well as under twelve’ subsequent years of Harding, Coolidge anc Hoover, I very earlv decided in my mind that the race would never make any further political advancement by one-sided allegiancs to the Re- publican party, I have for a quar- ter of a century advocated the di- vision of the, vote.

Dr. Carl Armstrong, who enter- ed the hospital as an interne, with high ideals and excellent morals, passes rapidly from eood to bad and then worse an! his conscience saves him only in the end when he discovers that he is about to “mur- der” his own unborn son, After ‘this realization, he and Nora, the nurse, secretly’ marry and com- ‘mence life over in a small town and with a legitimate practice. . —Clifford C, Mitchell emanate THE CHANGING SOUTH Boston Chronicle An_ incident which occurred in the State of Mississippi recently disclosed a glimpse into that fu- ture when the South becomes real- ly civilized. The incident we refer to is the oceasion when Dr. George Washington Carver was invited to address the Mississipi State Col- lege for Women. The college au- thorities forbade Dz, Carver to st foot on the campus and announced that no student would be allowed to attend the lecture which had been sponsored by the Y.W.C.A. The action of the school authori- ties did not deter the student body. The meeting was held elsewhere and the students went to hear Dr. =f. and applauded him long and loudly. Actions like these forecast the trend of race relations in the South when these students have been re- leased from the unwholesome at- ie = whieh is induced many older generation of mentors.

The wife, Mrs. Marjorie Hern迪, 2910 Georgia avenue, N. W., filled a petition thru her attorney, Wilbur N. Baughman, white, setting forth that her husband deserted her and their two minor children July this year. She says that in January this year she had her husband brought before the Juvenile Court and at that time he was ordered to give her $70 per month for the upkeep of their children and the maintenance of the home. She claimed that he is $100 in arrears, has taken the children to the home of his sister at 1231 Girard street, N. W., where she is refused permission to visit or see them. She also states that she is now destitute and the furniture from her home has been foreclosed. She says she has received only $2 since she was deserted by her husband on July 30. Says Wife Spent Rent Says Wife Spent Rent Herndon who lives with the children at the Girard street address tells the court that he was forced to leave his home and that his wife refused to perform the duties of a wife. He also states that he met the agreement with the Juvenile Court, but when he learned that his wife was using the money for purposes other than paying the rent and buying household necessities he was told by the court to stop paying her. He states in his petition that his wife at one time brought a boy friend into the home and this man threatened to kill him. He says he was forced to sleep on the first floor of the home for fear his wife would do him bodily harm while he slept and he was forced to wash, iron and sew for the children as his wife refused to perform these requirements for the children. He claims his wife left at night in a taxicab after putting the children to bed and would not return before early hours in the morning. He says she refused to state where she had been. Herndon states in his bill that at one time his wife sought to rent a room from a neighbor where she could entertain her friends. Herndon asks the court for custody of the children and the dismissal of his wife's petition. He is represented by Attorney George A. Parker. MOROCCANS CALL AMERIC'N NEGROES 'CONQUERED TRIBE' Thomas Chase, Musician, Traveling In Africa, Writes About Ceuta Africans don't think much about the American Negro, according to Thomas Chase, former Dunbar High student, now touring Europe with a band of musicians. In a communication to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. William T. Chase, 1838 Vermont avenue,northwest, early this week, from Ceuta, Morocco, Africa, young Chase states "Ceuta is situated in Northern Morocco. The Moorish people are very strange people. They do not think so much of the foreign dark man. They call them members of 'the conquered tribe,' and do not care to converse with them or mingle with them in any way whatsoever. However, they crowd the bullying nightly to see and hear us and they give us plenty of applause after each number. I have never seen such funny acting people in my life before." Chase is travelling through Africa at present, but is expected to play in Madrid, Spain again soon. The group may begin a series of musical concerts in Mexico and are expected to return to America in the fall. NEGRO, JEW AND WHITE BEING BAPTIZED HERE ELDER L.

E., have found themselves completely isolated in their community of several hundred homes, for the past week. The repairs to Bennings Road have been going forward during this time, and the three streets entering Kingman Park have been completely closed at one time. A motorist attempting to visit friends in Kingman Park will drive out Bennings Road only to find 23rd, 24th and 25th streets all closed. He will return home in disgust after tying up the traffic on Bennings Road, seeking a place to turn around—or maybe participating in one of the many accidents that have occurred on that thoroughfare in the past few days. No Provision The city made absolutely no provision for traffic into and out of this community. First one street and then another was closed, until there was no street opening left. Some of the motorists began using a short detour over a very rough lot fronting on Bennings Road at 23rd street. Others used what would be E street from 23rd to 19th streets—if such a street existed. This too was over a very bumpy lot; and both of these rough passage fees afforded ideal places for the bumping of crank cases, breaking of springs and otherwise damaging the more than $100,000 in automobile property values owned by the citizens of Kingman Park. To make a bad matter worse, the short detour at 23rd street and Bennings Road was closed also, which left only the lot at the end of E street. The puzzled motorist went blindly from one street to another seeking an exit. After about a week of this, the city recognized the fact that this was the only "way out" for these motorists and placed detour signs accordingly. Also, realizing that dangerous mudholes existed right where E street entered the lot, the city piled a truck load of dirt in the middle of the improvised road. This left mudholes on both sides of the pile of dirt, and through these mudholes the citizens of Kingman Park have been driving for the past few days. The city had no workmen repair the bumpy road used by Kingman Park motorists. In fact, the city made the way almost impassable by the piling of dirt—which had been left for several days and had not been distributed when this article was written Sager Development Charles D. Sager is the developer of Kingman Park. When questioned by a Tribune reporter, Mr. Sager said that the closing of all the entrances to Kingman Park at one time was an "absolute disgrace." He said that it was "out of all manner of reason" and that he had "complained to the 9th Precinct and the traffic bureau." Action had been "promised this week," said Mr. Sager. The developer of this subdivision said there was "no excuse for the closing of all the streets at one time." They "left no direction of any kind," concluded Mr. Sagen SECOND SECTION 1. NINE SOME GOSSIP THAT— "I ONLY HEAR" By And Rivers Now let us hear! Colleen Brooks and baby are living in an apartment on $ street. "Stud" Green is still cutting up. And so is Agnes Williams. Odd, isn't it? "Peg Leg" Bates found Washington society belles soft pickings. If you don't believe me, ask the Afro's columnist. Big time party? And the Medical Convention is a flat tire. Not invited by the local doctors or dentists, the folks want to know who fooled the doctors into coming here. The out-of-town doctors are trying to find out what it's all about. "What's going on?," they ask. "Nothing" is our answer. No social functions have been arranged and doctors who don't have a few addresses and phone numbers are out-of-order. For those who do, however, entertainment is being provided in "buffet flats," gin mills and "G.T. corners. Married doctors, especially, are getting quite a "kick." So, who cares? And the society matrons bridge, Bessie Stevenson, Rosetta Robinson, Laura Arnold and Mamie Simmons were spending an enjoyable evening when the "falling out" occurred. What do you expect of the debutantes, if you must squabble, ladies? And it is bad taste Mrs. Stevenson to discuss colors while "falling out." Rosetta was hostess. Bessie was guest. Who was to blame, ladies? And the "cream of society." ***** And Kate was to sail for Cuba in a "flower-bedded" state room—telegraphed flowers. Class! So said a grapevine despatch early this week. But Kate was seen on the boulevard—later this week—with "Mortimer." Not you, Mortimer; but you, "Mortimer." And why did the "Grand" want to ape up on Louie's jaw? That will stand investigation. Irma Gardy and Aun Davidson entertained Colonel J. H. Ward, head of U. S. Veterans Hospital, at Tuskegee, Ala., and Mr. Spurgeon Burke, business manager at the same institution, on Tuesday evening of this week. Colonel Ward and Mr. Burke were in the city attending the doctors' convention. The night's program included a trip to Mount Vernon, dinner at the Savarin, and bridge at the young ladies' apartment at 1333 S street, northwest. COLUMBIA LODGE ELK NEWS BY CHARLES A. CORNISH J.
