Mrs. Viola Bell Instantly Killed In Auto Accident 7 CENTS PER COPY Z HER chin high in the air, Adele side hall, musical comedy star, began her new social life in Larchmont in the face of opposition from white neighbors. If Mme. Adelia Walker, who made $3,000,000 on a preparation could reign like a queen in a $1,000,000 mansion on the Hudson—why can't Adelaide hold her court in a $15,000 Larchmont home, she would like to know. She and her husband, Bert Hicks, installed themselves in the Kilmer road house Saturday. Adelaide announced sweetly that her mother and grandmother will live there, too—far from Harlem's turmoil. Is there a prettier or better known girl in New York than Adelaide Hall, who starred in "Blackbirds" and "Brown Buddies?" Certainly not! And now that the throne of the late Mme. Walker is empty, why shouldn't Adelaide be the queen of Westchester? The great Mme. Walker entertained black and white guests and established a legend around herself. After her death her art collection was sold at auction and hundreds of curious white people attended the sale for a peep at the interior of her home. Her indignant neighbors announced yesterday that they will appeal to the theatrical interests to persuade her to move, in spite of her ten-year lease. FORMER D. C.

The youth was later sent home'. Washington Tribune Vol. XII, No. 16 NEWEST RACKET BAFFLES POLICE NEWEST RACKET BAFFLES POLICE Officers Seek Racketeer Who "Works" Laundries And Tailor Shops A new racket which had proven remarkably successful is marked for a quick reversal if police are successful in finding the man who has "worked" nearly every laundry and tajor shop in northwest Washington during the past week. The petty thief's method is simple. He enters the establishment and asks for a suit or laundry package, saying that he has lost his ticket. While the attendant looks for the non-existant package, he pilfers small amounts of cash from under the counter. The same man is wanted by police on several charges of petit larceny and one of grand larceny. He is described as being between 23 and 25 years old, five feet eight, and about 140 pounds. He generally wears a faded blue shirt, blue pants, and a dark cap, but sometimes changes to brown pants and a white shirt. Gun Toter Given 360 Days In Jail By Judge Schuldt A jail term of 360 days was meted out to Harry "Lary" Wilson, by police court Judge Gus Schuldt Monday on a charge of carrying a concealed weapon after Wilson was found to have shot twice with a pistol at the home of Robert and Lillian Brown. Wilson told the court the first shot went off accidentally and the second time he just shot for the fun of it. Man, 52, Reported Missing Police are searching for Wesley Bailor, 52, of 324 D street, southeast, who has been missing from his home since August 20. Bailor is 5 feet 6 inches in height, 185 pounds, with dark skin and gray hair. When last seen he wore blue pants, a white shirt, and a grey felt hat. FINL WOMA FINLEY WILSON RE-ELECTED WOMAN HELD IN TORCH MURDER WILSON TO HEAD ELKS OF WORLD FOR 11th YEAR Grand Exalted Ruler Halteed In Midst Of Report And Elected By Acclamation (Special to The Tribune) ATLANTIC CITY, N.J.—The thirty-third annual convention of the grand lodge of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World stopped J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler, while reading his annual report, Tuesday, and re-elected him by acclamation for the eleventh time. There was no opposition from the small delegation assembled here. Due to depression and the late change of meeting place from Los Angeles on the Pacific to Atlantic City of the Atlantic Ocean, there were not more than 400 delegates here. There were about a thousand delegates in Philadelphia last year. Only a few cities are represented here. The grand secretary, James E. Kelly, of Birmingham, Ala.; the grand treasurer, Judge Edward W. Henry, of Philadelphia; and the commissioner of education, Judge William C. Hueston, of Washington, D.C., were re-elected by acclamation following the reading of their reports Wednesday morning. Only one incident marred a harmonious meeting so far, and that happened Wednesday morning when John Marcus, of Philadelphia, said that he would not oppose the motion to re-elect Judge Henry as grand treasurer, but he wanted the record to show Quaker City as not voting. That was soon over and everybody seemed happy. After the appointment of Robert Nelson as athletic commissioner in Pennsylvania, Judge Hueston, commissioner of education took over the editorship of the Eagle in February. 1932. In making his report on that office Wednesday morning, he recommended that the Eagle be changed from a monthly to a weekly paper, and that a complete print shop be set up and manned by a complete staff to print the Eagle weekly and turn out other printed matter for the order. He suggested it be located in Washington, D.C., and that the Eagle become a national fraternal paper carrying all information possible on the operation of the government and the service the various governmental departments can render.

Miss Williams told police that a white man, whom she knows only casually as either Williams or Cassa, came to her house Sunday evening and asked for the change. She gave him ten one-dollar bills and took the ten spot. The following morning when she sought to deposit the bill at the bank at Seventh and N streets, she was told that it was counterfeit. She said that she could identify the culprit, describing him as being about 28 years old, 5 feet 8, and very heavily tanned. He wore a gray suit and is known to hang around Fourteenth or Fifteenth and K streets. He was operating a black Hudson roadster when Miss Williams saw him last. The top was turned down. The car bore New York. 14-YEAR-OLD BOY SHOT TO DEATH BY WHITE MAN Youth Playing In Vacant Lot Killed By White House Cop A 14-year-old boy was shot to death Thursday night by a white man as the boy and several of his young companions were playing in a vacant government lot in the rear of the 200 block of Seventeenth street, northeast. The boy, Charles Young, 116 Sixteenth street, northeast, was shot through the neck and was killed instantly. He was pronounced dead by Dr. Charles W. LeMasters, of Casualty Hospital where the child was taken. Policeman Did Killing The white man was identified as Ignatius Connole, 35, 214 Seventeenth street, northwest, a policeman at the White House. The man was off duty at the time he killed the boy and at the inquest held at the District Morgue Friday morning a coroner's jury rendered a verdict "that Connole shot the boy in the defense of his own life." The man made the usual excuse (Continued on page 2) PRUDENTIAL FIRST COLORED BANK TO GET R. F. C. LOAN Ability to Borrow Evidence That Institution In Sound Condition The Prudential Bank of Washington bears the distinction of being the first colored bank to secure a loan from the Reconstruction Finance Corporation. Of the 437 advances covered in ten days in July, $22,900,180 went to banks and trust companies. The Prudential secured a loan of $90,000. Banks in every state in the country as well as trust companies received loans. Other banks in Washington to receive loans were the Commercial National Bank, $600,000 and the Franklin National Bank $120,000 In connection with the first announcement of the loans of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation to banks, it was pointed out in financial circles that receipt of a loan by a bank is tantamount to announcing that the institution is in excellent financial condition. The R. F. C. will not approve a loan unless based on sound security, it was explained. Banks favored with the loans were fundamentally in good financial condition, but took advantage of the opportunity afforded them by the Governmen of placing their assets in more liquid estate. Borrowing by banks is not a new expedient, one financier said today. Banks have been in the habit of borrowing cash from correspondent institutions in New York and from Federal Reserve, it was emphasized. "Borrowing does not endanger a bank or its customers," he declared. "On the other hand, it is a move calculated to strengthen the liquid reserve so that all demands can be instantly met. "Now the Reconstruction Finance Corporation has gone a step further and has made it possible for banks to liquidate securities, such as first mortgages or other sound investments, that ordinarily are considered as 'frozen' in the eyes of correspondent or the Federal Reserve banks. This step relieves materially the frozen situation with respect to these safe securities and, at the same time, eases the banking situation for the customer." WASHINGTON BRIEFS Home Of S. W. Rutherford Sold At Public Auction The home of S. W. Rutherford, 1520 R street, northwest, former president of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, was sold at public auction Wednesday.

WHITES HELD IN TERRORIST PLOT Five Arrested In Organized Reign To Drive Negroes From Jobs JACKSON, Miss.—An allegedly well financed and highly organized reign of terror intended to frighten colored railway firemen from their jobs was uncovered here by police who announced five white men held for attacks on the workers have confessed participation in the plot. Officers said the prisoners admitted connection with a series of shootings but they have not been linked to the slaying of six of the firemen in Mississippi and Louisiana within the last few months. Those killed were fired upon at night in their engine cabs. Several others were wounded under similar circumstances. Police claim the motive was to make vacancies for white men. Four of the five men held are former employees of the Illinois Central Railroad. The prisoners asserted a "pool" had been formed by unidentified persons to pay gunmen for the attacks at a rate ranging from $25 to $125, "depending on the result". Those held are M. F. Varnado of McComb, alleged "trigger man" of the group, and Reedy, Lee, Emmett Smith, Charles J. Miller and J. Matt Lewis.

VIOLA BELL KILLED WHEN CAR CRASHES POLE Wife Of Owner Of Bell's Hotel At Benedict Dies In Crash Many Washingtonians who visit Benedict, Maryland, were shocked to hear of the sudden death of Mrs. Viola Bell, wife of the proprietor of Bell's Hotel, at the Pattuxent resort. Mrs. Bell, who belonged to the well-known Toyer family, was killed Friday night, August 19, when the machine which was driven by her husband ran into a telegraph pole. Bell, it was said, was blinded by bright lights and left the road on a curve, striking the pole. The crash was terrific, and Mrs. Bell, who was supposed to have been sleeping, was thrown forward violently. A large piece of glass was driven into her chest. The funeral of Mrs. Bell was held Monday. The grief of the Bell and Toyer families placed a pall over the community. Many usual weekend enquiries to the Benedict resort had to go elsewhere the past week. NATIONAL TENNIS TOURNAMENT ENDS IN NEAR RIOT Crowd Boos And Weir And Jackson Refuse To Accept Title SCOTCH PLAINS, N.J.—A near riot ended the sixteenth annual tennis tournament of the American Tennis Association here last week when the spectators booed the final decision of the judges and Reginald Weir and Nathaniel Jackson, finalists in the men's singles, refused to accept the winner's trophy. Weir was declared winner by the judges. A large group of women players, mainly New Yorkers, peeved over the seeding of Mrs. Francis Gittens as No. 2, threatened to "strike." Mr. Burke did not lose his head, he announced that all matches would be called and that players who cared to default were privileged to do so. To any one of the "kickers" however, who were rated below Mrs. Gittens and who felt that they were entitled to a higher rating based on their ability, he offered a personal prize of $20 gold piece if they would substantiate their contention by defeating her in an exhibition match. No one took up his challenge and the "would-be strikers," with but two exceptions, when called upon to play wielded their racquets in creditable fashion. The exceptions were Mrs. Rhoda Smith (not seeded) and Miss Blanche Winston (seeded No. 4). Both of these players defaulted. Hon. George L. Dalatour, Jr., mayor of Scotch Plains, N.J., officially opened the tournament by welcoming the A. T. A. and their guests. A clear sky and a sunny day spread their rays over the beautiful grounds and all was set for the first round of play. Edmund H. Burke, official referee, knew however that "storm clouds" were threatening and in his usual calm but deliberate and firm manner was master of the situation. In the final round between Nathaniel Jackson and Reginald Weir, Jackson took the first set, winning six straight games. The second set was won by Weir. 6-2. The third by Jackson, six games to Weir's three. This gave each player two sets. The match was not only exciting but interesting up to this point. While both players got bad breaks due to faulty CAPITAL EDITION WOMAN HELD FOR BURNING MAN TO DEATH WITH LAMP Dying Man Tells Police Wife Threw Lamp At Husband And Struck Him Did Mrs. Viola Beatrice Clay in a fit of anger throw a lighted lamp at her husband who ducked out of the way, and did the lamp strike Arthur Scott burning him to death? Or did Scott in a drunken stupor knock the lamp on himself setting his clothing on fire? A coroner's jury was faced with these two questions at the District Morgue Tuesday morning and decided that nothing less than a grand jury investigation could pass on the questions and ordered Mrs. Clay for the action of that inquisitorial body. Said Woman Threw Lamp Scott who was taken to Emergency Hospital in a serious conditions Sunday morning after the burning told Officer Walter S. Beek of No. 4 Precinct that Mrs. Clay threw a lamp at her husband who ducked and the lamp struck him. Officer Beck testified that Scott was semi-conscious when he made the statement and often wandered in his talk. The policeman said that Scott; stated that a group was at 334 K street, southwest, playing cards and shooting crap until late at night. The dying man said Mrs. Clay ordered her husband to bed and when he refused she picked up a lighted lamp and threw it at her husband, Walter Briscoe Clay. Scott is alleged to have further stated to the officer that Clay ducked and he caught the lamp in his back. The explosion and flames set his clothing on fire. Others who were at the house at the time told a different story. Mrs. Clay who took the stand in her own behalf stated that the men (Continued on page two) FLIES HERE TO ATTEND FUNERAL FLIES HERE TO ATTEND FUNERAL John Rhines Takes Plane From Atlantic City To Attend Relative's Rites Mrs. Sarah Minkins, 16 Ninth street, northeast, a resident of Washington for 40 years, died at her home Sunday after an illness of several months.

MITCHELL TWO PERTINENT SUBJECTS By the time this release is published the reader will, no doubt, have digested portions of Hoover's acceptance speech from many angles, but the two particular points that commend themselves to this writer are his utterances, "... equality of opportunity to every individual..." and his comment on prisoners, "... we are today returning them to society far better fitted for citizenship..." These references are personally appreciated, first, because for nearly forty years I have known of, and experienced, the handicaps that all Negroes are acquainted with, due to the lack of equal opportunity to every individual, and second, because for nearly twenty years I have known something of the life of prisoners. For more reason than that of sentiment, equal opportunity to every individual should be nationally recognized, in the south, where the power of the colored vote, as now administered, is negligible, as well as in the north, where the colored vote is now the balance of power. Economic conditions, alone, should justify the insistence that equal opportunity be extended to all. Otherwise, a very appreciable waste in man power, mental development and intellectual attainments are lost to the community and the country in general. Can you conjecture the lack of athletic RANDOM THOUGHTS Well, if the French and British and Italians get together to try to cancel the war debts, the Republicans and Democrats in our own country ought to be able to get together to prevent it. Some congressmen seem to believe that if they can only make the treasury deficit large enough it will be able to cure itself.—The Oklahoan. Sound thinking on the part of an individual often saves time energy, money and embarrassment. --- Washington Tribune Published Weekly at Washington, D.C., by THE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY PUBLISHING GROUP records America would have missed had equal opportunity been denied to some of our participants purely because of their color, yet, in many other lines and in many communities a great many otherwise good American citizens are denied the equality of opportunity for no reason other than their color. And in the matter of redeeming prisoners I know, from experience and many years of observation, that the individual is not benefitted nor is society improved, by shunting law-violators way for years only to have them return to society in a far more handicapped condition than when they first transgressed society's laws. Not only is it true with federal prisoners, as the president specifically mentioned, but state prisoners in the more enlightened and progressive communities are also being given the advantages of rehabilitation under conditions that will permit the prisoner to develop the very best that is within him and to so return to society under circumstances that will excellently fit him for good citizenship. In fact, neither class, the one which is handicapped because of color, or the class that is handicapped because of some of their own derecisions, can ask for more than what the president said should be granted all... equality of opportunity to every individual. . . The English have a new fuel, a combination of powdered coal and oil. In every 100 tons of the new fuel 40 tons of coal are used. The process of mixing has not been made public yet. Tests over a long period have proved that the new fuel is cheaper and more efficient than present fuels. Science knows that the present supply and source of gasoline can't possible last always so they are ever working out means of creating a new supply.

Editor, Tribune: I notice that of late, your paper has begun to carry a number of columns, written by writers, and in which they express their individual opinions on any subject they choose. Yours and the Chicago Defender are the only colored papers in which I have seen this. Of course, the Herald and many other publications of the opposite race seemingly have a staff of writers for this very purpose. Some of the articles in these papers are humorous, others are dramatic, while still others are stiff and informal; but all in all, they are both amusing and informational. I think this is a wise step in the direction of giving your readers variety. Other Negro papers should follow your example. We, too, like our fairer brothers, have some Heywood Brouns, Sherwood Andersons, and Walter Winchells. And this is a good way to let us know about them. I have been wondering what had become of all the students of journalism turned out of our high schools and colleges. I knew personally a few of them myself. Perhaps, if other papers follow your example, we will soon be hearing from those high-souled wielders of the pen who interpret the meaning of life. I will mention just two of your writers whose articles both me and my family all but fight over the paper to read. The first is John or Johnnie Williams. The other fellow is Alvin Webb. Both of these young men, I am presuming that they are young, showing promising skill with their respective pens. I like Williams' articles because he can be both serious and dramatic. He was especially comical last week. I suspect tho., he has been reading Walter Winchell. Mr. Webb is always serious, but I like his articles, too. I am employed in a barber shop and we often argue over the remarks of these columnists. For this reason, I am herein subscribing for the Tribune. Have your newsboy to deliver one every week. The address is 2720 Georgia avenue, northwest. Ask for R. V. Bowie. I should like to encourage Mr. Williams and Mr. Webb. Provided, of course, they regard it as encouragement. So if you have available space, kindly publish this letter. Very respectfully you rs, R. V. Bowie. THANK YOU Editor, Tribune: At last you have a column in your paper that is really enjoyable to read—of course I am referring to "Just This and That" by Dutton Ferguson. Many of your readers do not have time to read the articles in full, therefore when such an interesting writer as Mr. Ferguson is contributing to your paper we are able to appreciate him. However, I have one suggestion: Let us have just a little more "That Than This." Hoping the column will be continued, Im, A "Tribunite," W. B. Wheeler. YOUTH AND SEX The world today has literally gone sex-eracy. We hear the subject of sex preached in the putpits, discussed informally in the schools, and debated by the various social circles so heatedly and intensely, that the average individual is beginning to wonder if this popular theme is not destined to become real international "food for thought." At this moment the burning question appears to be—Should sex instruction be given to the Youth by schools and churches? A few years ago a very "young" old woman attempted to write a treatise on the delicate subject of sexual life, and going a daring step further, she distributed pamphlets on this subject through the mail. Her actions caused a storm of protests the clergy and the so-called reformers, who (delight in having their (names printed in our daily newspapers as opposed to any progressive movement that (they themselves have not organized). Suffice it to say, this enlightening woman's work was censored in practically every state in the Union. All mothers are desirous of having their off-spring develop into sterling products of civilization. Yet how many possess the native ability to instruct their young ones intelligently, about the fundamentals of their physical beings?" Oh, let them find out for themselves," they say, "Nature will take its course." Yes, and how many of our youths have destroyed the wonderful gifts of Nature? The desire for maturity aroused by a burning curiosity to ascertain the uses and functions of certain organs of the human body, often cause premature sexual intercourse among our boys and girls. Another great reason may result from mimicry. During the adolescent, habit. forming era, children often may be presented with the opportunity of seeing what "Ma THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, AUGUST 26, 1932 and Pa does. This often happens either because of utter carelessness on the part of the parents or the lack of the proper facilities that would create privacy. One can easily see the reaction that a small child will get from witnessing this adult scene. Very soon little Junior will want to play house with the little girl next door and will want to do the things that Ma and Pa does." Constant indulgence of this kind at such a tender age will naturally prove detrimental to perfect manhood and womanhood Optimistically speaking, the next generation ought to be efficient and capable enough to instruct their brood correctly on such a ticklish subject as sex. Our civilization is rapidly becoming more practical, and is loosening the shackles and chains of primitive and medieval customs. At the present time, however, American boys and girls are sadly in need of capable instructions and training along these lines. Until such teachings are made a part of the school and church curriculum the death rate of infants and their untutored mothers will ever remain on the up-grade. SAYS REPORT OF AUTO I learned that I was hurt in an automobile wreck this summer near Philadelphia in a car with Mr. Cupid, but was not badly hurt and returned to New York. All of which is false. Mr. Cupid was not in New York at Summer School. I wouldn't leave New York with its wonderful week-end appointments for the dead city. My car has not had a scratch. It is funny how such an item was born. It would have been only amusing had not my friends been unjustifiably greived. Sorry I cannot collect some insurance on this "accident" and sorry I can't look into the disordered brain of the perpetrator of this hoax. PRAISES SECRETARY OF ATLANTIC CITY Y. M. C. A. To the Editor: As I have travelled over the country I have been deeply impressed with the value of the work of our Y.M.C.A.'s, standing as they do as monuments to the work of Hunton, Moorland, Tobias and their co-workers. Whenever I can stop at one of these I always do so bearing as I do a card of honorary membership from the Carlton Branch of the "Y" of my home town in Brooklyn. This year I spent my vacation at Atlantic City and put up at the Arctic Avenue Branch of the Y.M. C.A., located in its quarters of a million dollar plant in the very heart of the colored colony of 12,000 souls. During my fifteen-day sojourn I became deeply impressed with the strategic location and the constructive and unique work of Secretary C. M. Cain and his efficient staff. Herefore eighteen years this portly and genial secretary has toiled night and day, week day and Sunday, in being more than a father to the 8,000 youths who have come under his beneficent touch. Here is the social center of the colored population, twenty-seven different organizations have their headquarters and meet here during the year, bringing together over 18,000 people in co-operative relationship. It is also a religious center, in which the various denominations under the leadership of the clergy cordially co-operate. Secretary Cain himself being the secretary of the Ministers' Union.

THIS WRITER FLAYS GANGS AND LAWLESS ELEMENT To the Editor: I read your editorial on mob violence and lawlessness by young people and the crimes they committed. I want to congratulate you on that wonderful editorial. I only wish that it could have reached every person in the country. I think our teachers and preachers and especially the parents should teach the younger persons that lesson and encourage them not to roam the streets in such lawless gangs, and there would be less crime. Keep up the good work and write more editorials like that one and I hope the younger generation will take heed and be better citizens. MEMORY Lost in a sea of bitter thought My yearning heart takes hold Of the vows and love you brought, Theo they themselves grew cold. It matters not, sweetheart, It matters not, sweetheart, And not dream oer the yeater year. Nor music upon our old love-song, I try to think that you are near. BOOK REVIEWS BOOK REVIEWS "UNTO THEE I GRANT" Revised by Sri Ramatherio, (Published and distributed by the Rosicrucian Brotherhood, Rosicrucian Park, Sen Jose, California.) "Unto Thee I Grant" is a translation of a most remarkable book of philosophy on the laws of life. In the preface we learn that the original document was discerned nearly two hundred years ago in an ancient temple in the interior of China and through the cooperation of English and Chinese scholars, scientists and translators, we are given in modern language a philosophy of life written many centuries ago by an unknown writer of great wisdom. This little book, so full of philosophic teachings, is divided into two parts. Part one consists of seven books, a very graphic preface and a few preliminary instructions that serve as a guide for the reader to follow. Part two consists of five books including a liberal translation of the book's contents with the principles of the Rosicrucians. Book one treats on the subject of, "The Obligations that relate to Man considered as an Individual," divided into eight chapters. Book two, "The Passions," in five chapters. Book three, "Woman," Book four, "Consanguinity: Of Natural Relations," in four chapters. Book five, "Providence: Or the accidental difference of men," in four chapters. Book six, "The Social Duties," in five chapters. Book seven, treats on the subjects of "Religion." The remaining five books covered thoroughly the following subjects: "Man considered in general"; "Man considered in regard to his infirmities, and their effects"; "Of the affections of man, which are hurtful to himself and others; "Of the advantages man may acquire over his fellow creatures," and "The Manifestation of Karma."

JUST THIS AND THAT JUST THIS AND THAT By DUTTON FERGUSON WHAT A TAXICAB I GOT FOR MY. 20. CENTS! Being in a hurry the other day, I hailed the first taxi that came in sight. And what's cab, what's cab this guy picked out. Aside from having all sorts of windmills, airplane propellers, and weather vanes on the front of the radiator, the interior of the taxi had a radio, linoleum with bright checks on the floor, gay covering on the seats, sundry ash receivers, and everything but an open fireplace and running water. The driver was very friendly. He must have been taking his lady-friend out for her morning's airing as he cruised about for fares. There they were nearly billing and fully cooing on the front seat, while I frotted with anger amid the bright erletonne. The cab had so many trick things in it until I was scared to look as if I might leap out. There might have been a trap door at my feet and the driver, seeing my attempt to escape, might have dumped me out through the floor to the macadam. I had to have the taxicab stopped a block from my destination. Upon getting out and paying the fare, I felt like some one being released from a hum circus show. Don't know which was worse . . . that cab or my chaperonage. Had I been out to get color, both would have been all right. I engaged the cab for business. All the same, this guy surely got his "run for lesser'n two bits." --- Down in the Congressional Library card index cases, Dr. Kelly Miller has twenty-six cards of reference to his books, open letters to famous personages, monographs, and pamphlets.

After three and a half years out of touch with civilization, Vice Consul George of the American Legation at Monrovia, Liberia, deserves to see the sights of Europe.

Pththhhh! back at 'cha! **** News Item in The Public Ledger, May 4, 1848: "At Martinique a revolt among the slave population is expected to take place, in consequence of the postponement by the Provisional Government of their emancipation until the present crop has been reaped." By way of contrast, I quote the headlines last week's Tribute: "Husband Uses Piers On Wife's Head After Quarrel." Both a revolt or misused pair of pilers are apt to get one in jail. But it is best to go to jail for one's rights than to go to jail for one's wrongs. ... One of Our Banks secured a loan from the Reconstruction Finance Corporation. While this is equal to saying that the bank is in excellent financial condition and that the loan was an opportunity afforded by the Government to place the bank's assets in a more liquid state.

A report of the loans to Congress for the information of its members is all that is necessary. --- Heard That One About the Prominent professional man who zoomed a $5,000 car up to the Bordentown Tennis Tournament while his mother, more often the maid about his home, stayed at home to scrub, cook and housekeep?

The political World was agog with expectancy. The acceptance address of President and candidate Hoover was awaited with abated breath. His treatment of depression and of economic and industrial remedies might easily have been anticipated. The editor of the Nation declared that he could have forewritten the acceptance address including both substance, thought and style. But candidate Hoover's new attitude on the Eighteenth Amendment kept the country guessing. The drys had pinned their faith in him as the great white hope. They had looked to him as the Moses to lead them through the miasma of the wilderness to the promised land of high and dry ground. The rising tide of liquor seemed to be at flood The Literary Digest had tested public sentiment and found it so wet that water could make it no wetter. The Republican convention was nonplussed and dodged the issue with evasive phraseology. The Democratic platform had gone wet, one hundred per cent plus. The fate of the Grand Old Party hung in the balance. It vacillated between despair and hope. The bepuzzled leaders waited for their master's voice, and could only proclaim: "Wait till you hear from Hoover". Alas, at last, we did hear from Hoover. The erstwhile champion of prohibition became the compromiser with rum. Liquor without the saloon is liquor just the same. There is no recorded instance in our annals where a statesman of like eminence has executed such a sudden sommersault on a moral issue, not even Daniel Webster's apostasy from abolishment of slavery. Nor is there a like instance of self-stultification. Elected four years previous by an overwhelming majority of his fellow citizens, bound by platform and pledge and commissioned by the people to enforce the whole Constitution with especial emphasis on the Eighteenth Amendment, he now confesses the failure of his stewardship and asks for a reversal of policy. He looks backward after putting his hands to the plow of righteousness. He now stands on precisely the same platform where Al Smith, by virtue of his robust personal authority, stood four years ago. Smith was then denounced from one end of the land to the other as the chief spokesman and sponsor of rum and ruin. The loud resounding cry was heard even in the remote Southland whose political solidity was split asunder for the first time in a generation. So great was the triumph of the dry Hoover over the wet Smith. Smith then stood for the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment, State control of the liquor traffic and moral condemnation of the saloon. Mr. Hoover then stood for the strict and unfinching enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment forbidding in categorical terms the manufacture, transportation and sale of intoxicating liquor. Smith has brought by his unyielding insistence the whole of his own party and a large proportion of his Republican antagonists to where he stood and stands on that bad eminence. In the meantime THE DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS BETWEEN A DEMOCRAT AND A REPUBLICAN By J. FLIPPER DERRICOTTE Now that the notification is over and Mr. Hoover has made his acceptance speech, all eyes turn to campaign and vote getting—for Mr. Hoover and his running mate, Mr. Curtis, must be re-elected or Mr. Roosevelt and his running mate, Mr. Garner, will take the reigns. In the final analysis of the scheme of things, the ultimate will be asked, to wit: "Are you a Democrat" or "Are you a Republican." No one ever or seldom asks the reason. ernment, a high on manufacture favoring interest." Now let us Republican. Tor Watson, a judges of the one of J. H. I W. Va., expressing words: "lieves in a stern, protective speech, press In an endeavor to clear up some of the differences and to ascertain the distinguishing characteristics between members of the two major parties, The Pathfinder Magazine conducted a nation-wide survey during the last presidential election or thereabout in 1928, and as a result of the same it received approximately 50,000 definitions. To be more specific, 47,762 persons attempted to tell in fifty words the difference and to set out the distinguishing characteristic between a Democrat and a Republican. A resident of the District of Columbia, G. A. Burrow, won, His definition follows. "A Democrat seeks to find in the interpretation of principles as established by Jefferson, Cleveland and Wilson the ideal government, while a Republican seeks the same result in the interpretation of the principles as set out by Lincoln, Roosevelt and Coolidge." This definition was classed by the judges as the best impartial one—that is a definition by a person evidently without party affiliations as residents of the District of Columbia do not vote though they do send representatives to the National Convention—both Democratic and Republican. From a party point of view, the Honorable Senator Swanson, one of the judges, classed that of E. A. Cameron, of Hermosa Beach, Calif., as the best Democratic definition. It reads as follows: "A Democrat believes in the doctrine of States rights, a tariff on luxuries for revenue only and equality in all laws enacted, while a Republican believes in a strong centralized政 Mr. Hoover has come around to the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment, relinquishing federal control to the states, and the outlawry of the saloon by constitutional provision. The only point where he differs materially with the Democrats is the constitutional prohibition of the saloon—an impossible desideratum. Whether the Eighteenth Amendment goes up or down, the American people will never again write a police regulation in the organic law. As I sat in the audience and listened to him pour out a volume of invective remarks against the evil of the saloon, I was convinced that this was the only moral passion evinced discourse, which except for the prohibition straddle, was excellently done. But even this attempt at sermonizing was tainted with the suspicion of political guile and insincerity. He boldly implied, if he did not openly accuse the Democrats of favoring and fostering the return of the saloon with all of its attendant evils, prudently oblivious of the fact that the rival platform avowedly decried the evil of the saloon and pledged support to the state to obliterate its abuses. The only difference is that the one would seek to accomplish by federal compulsion what the other hoped to reach by moral suasion. This was the only point where he showed poor sportsmanship. The debacle of the Eighteenth Amendment under Mr. Hoover's own handling frankly caused Mr. Hoover to advocate its repeal and to assert the futility of national compulsion in face of hostile public sentiment. The jewel of consistency lost its lustre. His position was absurdly inconsistent. The Republican party, of which Mr. Hoover is the titular head, derived its historical greatness and glory from its espousal of moral causes. It stood for the rights of man; for the protection of the weak, and for temperance and sobriety, not merely as a matter of prudence, but as a matter of principle. It was reserved for Mr. Hoover to declare in behalf of the Grand Old Party, that attitude on the liquor question is not binding on the conscience. Mr. Hoover's position may be interpreted as dry to the drys, as wet to the wets, and as damp to the moist. This new doctrine of freedom of conscience on the liquor question reverses all of our previous notions from the time of the drunkenness of Noah until now. In fact he becomes all things to all men, in order that he might save some (votes). There is no halfway ground between right and wrong, good and evil. "Because thou art neither hot nor cold but lukewarm, I will spew thee out of my mouth." The genuine drys are left in a pittable plight between the two platforms and can only rely upon the ultimate triumph of social righteousness, but must now pronounce *Plague on both your houses*. Mr. Hoover, at the close of his seven thousand word address, pledges himself to the nation and to Almighty God to carry out his proposals including the restoration of liquor without the saloon. ernment, a high protective tariff on manufactured articles and legislation favoring special or vested interest." Now let us see what it for a Republican. The Honorable Senator Watson, another one of the judges of the contest believed that one of J. H. Helmick, of Aurora, W. Va., expressed it in the following words: "A Republican believes in a strong Federal government, protection of industry, free speech, press and religion; continued separation of church and state, law enforcement, a high standard of living and economy in government." There you have them all. You have a definition from an impartial point of view; you have a definition from a Democrat's point of view; and you have a definition from a Republican's point of view. Perhaps, one from the third or other party members will be forthcoming? Sometimes between now and election day, the voters may classify themselves. They can weigh and measure the candidates by the yardsticks given above. They can right themselves, if wrong, or vice versa. Voting will take on a meaning and party affiliations and candidates will be understood and appreciated by a little reflective thought. Voters will have some basis for their being this or that, and the claim that you are a Democrat or that you are a Republican will have reasons behind it, for you will have put some thought in your politics. Therefore, on Tuesday, November 8, or before election day, when asked why "are you a Democrat" or why "are you a Republican, you will not be at a loss for an answer. "I hear your engagement is broken." "Yes; and Bill acted horribly." "But I thought you broke it yourself?" "So I did, but he made absolutely no fuss about it." The Brute!

DALLAS HAS ODD PAPER IN SCANDAL SHEET Church Leaders, Married People, Aim Of Sixteen- Page Tabloid By C. LESLIE FRAZIER Among the many exchanges that come to the editor's desk is one which claims that it is "a newspaper that doesn't cross the color line." This "different" paper, "Brotherhood Eyes" is published in Dallas, Texas, every Saturday by the Brotherhood Movement. It's object, so it says, is "to clean the race of crooked leaders; to build a better race economically; to expose the unfit and misfit within the race." It has been doing business since 1929, and seems to be going strong in the Southwest States. Its columns are given to condemning crooked preachers and church leaders. As one of its appeals to agents reads, it tells the pop-eyed world that "B. E. (Brotherhood Eyes) is after the evil door within the race. It plays no favorites and recognizes no sex." To save time we will make no comment but will give you a few choice headings and paragraphs of something (though seven years old) that is new under the sun. Glaring Headlines One display headline states "Deacon Whitewashed in 'Trial' and Later is Badly Paralyzed. People Warned Not to Treat God's Work Lightly. Mothers Warned to Watch Girls at Church. Lodge Warned Against Too Many SheMen." On the same page we get this headline: "Two Women Living as 'Married Couple' Engage in Knife Duel. Insurance Collector men's wives at least she never Shieks Lead Women Merry Chase for Gain. Church Rats Cutting Up in Shameful Manner." On the same front page is this gem of a heading: "Holiness Big Boys Hold Meetings to Bleed Little Holiness Saints. Big Baptist Church Lost to Loan Company. C. M. E. Members in Big Drinking Spree. Parson Trailed to Love Nest. Mud Bottom Wiggletails." From Idabel, Okla. we take the leading paragraph: "While snooping around lately this Eye saw brier U. S. N. ease in old sis L. B.'s house. This old bad gal was his sweetie before he married. Now she sits around and annoys every man that passes. But although she seems to dislike all of these mens' wives at least she never speaks when they pass her house. Her sweet daddy that she mistreated her dear mother for has left her to do the best she can. Old brer. (Stuff) B. and A. W. MILK JUICE PROTECT Don't let sun and wind darken and coarsen your skin.

Large jar of Genuine Black and White Peroxide Cream only 25c. Try it! were sure pulling some awful stunts on the streets last week and the language was awful." In Bad Condition This from Bogalusa, La.: "We have given some of the people of Bogalusa a thorough study and finding them in bad condition we are trying to find some sort of way to help them out. And we hope they are going to make the job easy. If any of our dear persons and deacons are tangled up in any mess we take pleasure in giving them plenty warning so they can begin to run in their holes and hide their filth, and not be so bold in their uncleanness and unrighteousness. And to the brethren and church gals, they must keep secret what they have done and stop doing wrong and showing up big in the church. "We knew that most hell cats and war horses in the church are the most and worst weeds on earth so don't let us all be in this gang. God wants us to live clean and upright lives in our homes and out in the public. Not only that, but live spotless to the, whole world and yourself. Without that we cannot enter into the kingdom of God. There is nothing done on earth that the Eyes don't see. So join the Eyes and live a better life—(By one of the Eyes.)" Heard a "Holler" From Lawton, Okla.: "At Arlington and First sts, this Eye heard old sis I. C. holler, and you could hear her 3 blocks. We understand that old brer C. C. has turned things around. Old sis I. C. 's been doing everything she was big enough to do to this old boy but this Eye thought it was about time old brer C. C. to turn things around and show up that he is a man. Thursday old hubby raised up on old wife I. C. He reached and got him a gun as long as his arm and this old sis 'put on the holler.'" We find this coming from Ardmore, Okla.: "We made an error last week about the old cotton tail parson not using any gun to run his church. He was caught with a gun -presiding over the church meeting the other night. Which shows that they will use every method, he it ever so low, to hold their jobs and carry out their self-fish desires." These are the milder paragraphs. "Brotherhood Eyes" uses words and phrases, that we of the press had no idea could be published and get through the mail. Whether the publishers are sincere in their belief that they can clean religion and morals, or whether they are coining in on filth and gossip is a conjecture. But we know that intelligent Negroes of this section of the country have no idea that Brotherhood Eyes, or any publication of its kind is in existence.

The impossible has to happen to even enable the second place "Dales to even tie the Bengals, "Reds" Powell continued to win to bring his string of victories, since signing on the dotted lines for the Tigers, up to eleven. He not only pitched a creditable game, but also used his big bat to great advantage, getting a home run, scoring two teammates ahead of him. Stars at Bat Mace Jefferson led both teams with the stick, getting two triples, a double and single out of five trips to the plate. Jefferies pitched a good game but his team mates let him down, and by their miscues allowed the Bengals to defeat them. John Randolph, this time playing third base, was the star of the Marylanders, playing a stellar game afield and leading his club with the bat. Young Russell Hamilton and A. Hamilton played remarkable in center and left field for the Marylanders. Jefferies banged one of Powell's fast balls for one of the longest hit balls ever seen in Huntsville for a homer.

Wheeler and Colbert in left and right field played a bang-up game for the northeast lads. The successful pinch hitters were Crump, Triplet and Hyson.

Johnson played good ball afield. White Sox Divide The Virginia White Sox won and lost on their diamond, losing the first game to the Rajah A. C. by the score of 15 to 7, and handing the Hillsdales a 7 to 5 drubbing. In the opener Gene Addison had the Virginia lads at his mercy and aided by the good stickwork of S. Johnson, Sawyer and G. Johnson, and fast fielding of A. Johnson, he handed the Virginia club an unexpected set-back. The Virginia club played listless ball, the only bright spot was the playing of T. Moore at short. Virginians Put Up Fight The Virginians recovered their fighting spirit when they entered their encounter with the cracking Hillsdales and continued to fight to overcome the early lead of the 'Dales, and thanks to several breaks they were successful, and after once getting in lead the ace of the Sox put on more steam and the 'Dales could not fathom his offerings enough to even the count "Reds" Wooden and "Effie" Williams were the only 'Dales to solve Lewis' offering, getting three hits each.

Co NEWS OF THE SPORT WORLD LEE SET SPACE IN D.C.MARATHON LEE SET SPACE IN D.C.MARATHON Y.M.C.A. Team Place Sixth In National A.A.U. Mile Run The Twelfth Street Y.M.C.A. cross country team, led by the sturdy Edgar Lee, won sixth place last Saturday in the National A. A.U. 26 mile 386 yard marathon. The race started at Mount Vernon, on through the streets of Washington and ended at the zero milestone at the White House. The race was won by Clyde D. Martak of Baltimore. Over eighty started while fifty-nine finished. The Twelfth Street "Y" started three runners, all finishing with Edgar Lee 31st—time 4.25:09, John Ellis 44th and Louis Johnson tied with Charles Kucera of the Chester Pleasure Club in the 59th position. Johnson exhibited excellent sportsmanship in staying back with Kucera who was troubled with a side pain. The two covered the last 10 miles together and locked arms as they passed over the finish line. They received a tremendous applause from the crowd. Lee Takes Lead Edgar Lee, the "Y" ace, took the lead at the crack of the gun and he was followed by De Bruyn, of Germany, Agge and Clarence De Mar. For over four miles Lee set a punishing pace that wore down the dashing Agee and the German flash De Bruyn. Lee developed leg cramps at the entrance of Alexandria and was forced to stop frequently at Red Cross relief stations. Agee was compelled to quit at the 15 mile mark, while De Bruyn collapsed within 20 yards of the finish and had to crawl in to finish. The first 5 miles was covered in 29 minutes, just 4 minutes over the world record mark. This marks the first marathon for the Twelfth Street squad and no doubt it is the first colored team to finish a whole team in a National A,A.U. championship. The boys were accorded the same attention at the Red Cross relief stations and at the Central "Y" that all other runners were given. They were applauded time and again along the course by all races. The squad is looking forward to future races. Woodburn Eagles Wine 1 And Lose 1 Over Weekend The Woodburn Eagles won a 2-1 diamond contest from the Montgomery All Stars, Saturday.

The LeDroits, graduates of the sand lots of the District, learning their brand of baseball by experience and hard fighting, and on the other hand the Dales, with some of the leading college and prep stars on their roster, products and graduates of some of the best coaches in the country, playing a fast and hard game at all times, using both science and brute strength. Both clubs will place on the diamond their best team, and whoever is the victor in this battle will have fought a real battle and deserved to win. STILL CHAMPION 1930 WESTFIELD, N.

One big inning, the lucky seventh, was enough to down Slade and his cohorts. Mentor Young's gladiators went on a rampage and when the dust had cleared away, the Walker Post lads had netted eight markers off nine bingles. Nat Randolph got life on Whitet's boot of his bounder to short, Alfred Smart batting for Fearing, who was sent to the crying room, smacked one of Slade's offerings for a round clout clout to deep center filed, scoring Randolph ahead of him. Ned Williams, diminutive gardener, doubled to right center but was trapped when he tried to puffer the third cushion on Slade's pitching movement. Clif Audrick kept things going as he singled to right, taking second on a passed ball. Tignor singled him to third and Jimmy Walker, all-high third baseman for the past two years, playing his initial game for the Legion nine, picked out one to his liking, resulting in a homer to deep center, Audrick and Tignor counting ahead of him. Ruddy Stripling, intent upon doing his part in the spree, tripped to left but Midgey Powell fanned and it looked as though the rally would be quilled as the weak hitting Webb approached the plate. However, the tiny first sacker surprised all and banged out a two-baser to left center, Stripling tallying. Randolph up for the second time in this gala run-scoring fram, smashed a screaming double to center, scoring Webb; Smart sauntered to the batting tee for his second time and singled Randolph across, but Williams ended the uprising when he whiffed. Officers' Four Making a somewhat auspicious start, the Reserves Officers hung up four markers in their half of the opening canto on five safeties, including a triple and four bases by Harris and Davis, respectively. Both teams counted in the second, the Post lads twice and their opponents once. Except for a single run the third, the Legion aggregation quieted down until they launched their devastating attack in the seventh. In the last of the sixth, the Camp Ritchie performers hung up two more on a miscue by Stripling and a homer by Jackson on a liner to the flag pole in deep center field. After Midget Powell had been frightened by the explosion of a huge cannon at the flag, lowering ceremonies at sunset, the Post aggregation closed a mammoth day with a real army dinner of beans, croquettes, biscuits and chocolate milk. The trek homeward began precisely at twenty minutes past seven, led by a generous and most appreciated manager, Charles G. Young. Of the seventeen hits which rang from the bats of Walker Post, Tignor accounted for three, while Harris, of the team team, was credited with two one basers and a triple in four attempts. Earlier in the week, Monday, Robert Dishman and the Monroe Pilots forfeited a 9 to 0 decision to Walker Post, when they failed to show up. Tuskegee Girls Show Interest In Tennis Tuskegee, Ala.-Since the National Tennis Championships, which were held at Tuskegee Institute, August 15 to the 22, 1931, the school authorities have encouraged the playing of tennis. As a result, student development and interest in tennis has shown marked enthusiasm. Director Amelia C. Roberts is responsible for the statement that many more than the usual half dozen or so girls have turned tennis fans this summer. Long before the breakfast hour: after the day's work is over at 4:30 in the afternoon, and again after the supper hour, the eight clay courts are filled with girls. Cream of East's Swimmers Set For A.A.U.Meet Saturday New York Team To Make Strong Bid For Honors Annual Championships Get Under Way At Francis Pool Saturday afternoon at the Francis Pools the greatest aggregation of colored swimmers ever assembled will fight it out for team and individual championships. Socially what the Howard-Lincoln football game has been to sport lovers in the fall the swimming championships are to Washington in the summer. Bernice Dabney, of the Francis team, feel quite confident, however that all foreign invasions will be turned back. New York Threatens The big threat comes again from New York. The New York Y.M.C.A. has probably the best ballanced colored swimming team in America, and every one of the sen All of the known stars will be present. Among the names which are growing brighter in the swimming firmament and are worth special attention on Saturday are Fred Douglass, fastest of all the sprinters, former Dunbar High captain and present junior at the University of Vermont; Wilbur Wallace, former Armstrong High all-around athlete, former 220-yard free style record holder at the Francis Pools and present member of the Iowa University swimming squad. To this pair from Francis add Morris Jackson, Francis Junior High youngster making his first bid for senior championship rating, and Washington has its three great free style swimmers. Shoving them hard for honors are Lawrence Carter, George Franklin, Lloyd Drew, and Harold Terry, the latter being particularly well worth watching in the breast and back strokes. Girls to Make Bid The Suburban Garden team last year produced two winners: Margaret Laws, who took the girl's dive, and Kinko Fujiwara, who broke the pool breast stroke record. These two defending champions will be back again to defend their titles. From Baltimore came a new team of youngsters who have been untried in big competition but who are good enough to take the beautiful F. W. Hoover team trophy back to the Monumental City. The girls, however, have a formidable crew and from all reports there will be lots of water splashed before anyone can stop Miss Henrietta Brown, who has been the high point trophy winner on two previous occasions. The Misses Connie Lucas, Clarke Bailey, Cera Catlet, Gertrude Fletcher, and Blue Sox Annex Double- Bill From Bethesda Mack Wilkson nearly entered sandlot baseball's Hall of Fame, when he pitched the Washington Blue Sox aggregation to a 6 to 0, one hit win over the Bethesda Black Sox, in the nightcap of a twin bill, after his mates had come from behind to snatch victory from within the grasp of the Maryland lads, 8 to 7, in the opener. Showing themselves to be versatile strategists, the Washingtonians, before an impressive crowd, pulled the game out of the fire when they hung up four markers in the third frame of the second fray. Rookie, for the winners, was a pin in the pants of the Black Sox, as he covered unknown territory in the outer garden. This stocky fellow could accomplish nothing in a big way to help his mates. All he did was pocket the old horsehide when the pellet was pummed to distant regions with "hit" labeled all over it. The lad performed in major league style, reminding one of a right handed Tris Speaker. Kansas City Monarchs Win 3 From Cuban Stars After running up a record of 51 victories out of the last 56 games played, Syd Pollock's Cuban Stars ran into one of their toughest streaks of hard luck, since playing ball on American shores. The Cubans dropped three straight games, 4-0, 2-1 and 7-1 to the Kansas City Monarchs. A six-inning game to the Sioux Falls Canaries 3-0, and another six-inning game to the Sioux City Stock Yards 7-3. Both these latter games were halted to rain, and would not have been played, only for the tremendously large crowd that braved the weather to see the Cubans in action. Thus the Islanders dropped 5 out of 8 games last week, defeating Ashby, Minn. 3-0; Forest City, Mo. 11-0; and Berlin, Mo. 7-5. Comminity Center Track Meet Scheduled Monday The Community Center track and field meet will take place Monday at the Walker Stadium. Hundreds of local athletes are expected to participate in the meet for individual and team honors. Junior and senior events will be held. The meet will get underway at 2:30 o'clock. The Aztecs continued to lead the senior division of the Community Center Baseball League this week. A tie between the Arrows and the Shield A.C. prevailed in the junior circuit. Bernice Dabney, of the Francis team, feel quite confident, however, that all foreign invasions will be turned back. New York Threatens The big threat comes again from New York. The New York Y.M.C.A. has probably the best balanced colored swimming team in America, and every one of the senior men is a star who may equal or crack D.C. A.A.U. records. For a treat in the art of beautiful and graceful yet powerful stroking just keep an eye on Leroy Williams in the 200-yard free style and 100-yard back stroke. In the 100-yard free and breast stroke watch Hanks, Drummond and Fisher. A new team managed by George Gregory, the All-American basketball star of Columbia University is making its first bid for rating in the junior class. Among the divers Pettie and Bruce, of Francis; Carr, Harris and Male, of Baltimore; and a couple of new contestants from New York will be the class. The probable order of events is as follows: The meet begins at 2:30 sharp. Order of Events 1. Medley relay. 2. 50-Yard trial boys (junior). 3. 50-Yard breast stroke (girls). 4. 50-Yard final (juvenile). 5. 100-Yard free style (men). 6. Low board diving (required). 7. 50-Yard free style trials (Miller Memorial). 8. 50-Yard free style (boys' final). 9. 50-Yard free style (women). 10. 100-Yard back stroke (men). 11. 25-Yard free-style (girls). 12. 50-Yard free style (Miller Memorial final). 12. 200-Yard relay (boys). 14. 100-Yard breast stroke. 15.

Tiger Squad Hard Hit By Graduation And Depression Tuskegee, Ala.—It appears at present that a little band of Golden Tiger athletes will have to be depended upon to carry the Crimson Colors to the four different battle fronts during the approaching football season. The squad, greatly reduced because of the number lost by graduation, including several promising players who have been thrown for a loss by that powerful player—Economic Pressure, will perhaps, not number more than forty-four men. A line on the possibilities will not be available until after the first practice session, which will be held Saturday, September 10, the date set by the Southern Conference as the time when member teams may start their fall football practice. Partial Schedule Oct. 8.—Knoxville at Tuskegee. Oct. 22.—Tuskegee at Wilber- force. Nov. 11.—Tuskegee at Clark. Nov. 24.—Tuskegee at State Teachers' College. Anglers Make Big Haul During Fishing Trip The Twelfth Street "Y" Anglers journeyed to Colton waters last week and pulled in a sizable haul. The group, led by Dr. William H. Davis, toted sixty trout, ten hard heads, fifty rock fish, twenty spots, and twenty-five perch back to Washington where their friends were supplied from the catch. Included in the group were Attys. Jesse H. Mitchell, J. Franklin Wilson, and Arthur A. Greene. The club is looking forward to other trips. BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL. SPORTS REVIEW By "BIP" BROOKS The south is proud of its accomplishments—even proud of its Negroes. N₀ southerner would willingly admit that northern or western communities produce Negroes superior to southern Negroes. Still, the recent Olympic games leaves us only the conclusion that northern and western communities produce the "whole" crop of superiur Negro athletes. Why should this be so? The Negro population in the south is many times that of the Negro population in all other sections of the country. By the law of averages, the south should produce by far the greatest number of outstanding Negro athletes. But the south doesn't supply these athletes. Why? The Negro in the south is as physically strong as the Negro elsewhere—and when we say this, we mean he is as physically strong as human beings anywhere, as the Olympic games have proven. The reason that the southern Negro does not "reach the heights" is because he does not get the training that "builds" an athlete for olympic competition. Olympic athletes invariably receive proper training from early childhood. Competent instructors in schools, careful high schools and college coaches, prepare the athlete for brilliant performance. He receives instruction that guides him in his out-of-school recreational activity. All of which leads to the end—excellence in a particular "specialty.' The achievement in the Olympic games climaxes the years of "purposeful labor" on the part of the athlete. Is such training possible for the southern Negro? Outside of a few of the larger Negro institutions in the south, competent instruction in athletics is a rarity; and even when a young Negro reaches the coach at one of these larger schools, he has already developed physically beyond the point where the specialized training should begin. Under such circumstances only the "exceptional" Negro athlete from these schools can "cut a figure" in national athletics; and so, we read of one such, once in every "blue moon." The racial prejudice of the south denies the Negro the training he should get in "his own" schools, and bars him from the training given to all other classes of citizens in white schools, i.e., the "public" schools. In most southern states, the Negro is barred from "public" playgrounds and has no real playgrounds of "his own." Hence, the idea of developing systematically a "set of muscles "from early childhood, is far removed from the southern Negro. The south doesn't provide money for this purpose. Hence, the south does not produce outstanding Negro athletes. How many Tolans, Metcalfe, Cornelius and James Johnsons, Gordons, Brookses, Beattys, and Edwardses could be found in the south, if Negroes there received proper athletic training? We venture to say that the southern Negro would give the south something to be proud of—to say nothing of what universal recreational activity on the part of southern Negroes would do toward emptying many southern hospitals and jails in the course of time.

Absolutely SAME Cigar At 5¢ Breaks All Records BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL VICTORY THEME OF WHITE OWL ADS Seige Gun Campaign Aims At Increased White Owl Sales For Dealer With its ammunition the smashing coast-to-coast triumph of White Owl at 5-cents, a seige gun White Owl advertising campaign for late summer and early fall will lay down a heavy barrage for increased sales at the cigar case. Big space half page advertisements on the sporting pages of influential newspapers of large circulation will carry "Front Page News" of White Owl's "All American Victory" to millions of smokers. Dramatic Presentation In order to dramatize the scope and volume of White Owl's sensational sales record—over 425,000,-000 White Owls sold the first year at 5-cents from coast-to-coast, the opening half page advertisement is a reproduction of the front upper half page of a newspaper. Titled at an eye-catching, easily readable angle, White Owl's "Front Page News" bears huge headlines—"All-American Victory" and "White Owl at 5-cents Wins Coast to Coast." As an explanation and proof to the reader, a box containing White Owl's record-breaking first year's score at 5-cents presents these figures: "East ..... 203,000,000 Central ..... 143,000,000 West ..... 79,000,000 Total ..... 425,000,000 To the right of the box three lines read: "14 Years 7-cents and Up Absolutely the Same Cigar at 5-cents Breaks All Records." To the most casual reader it must be apparent from a glance at the advertisement that there is more than meets the eye in the saying "Better Tobacco Will Tell"—not only from the fact that 425,000,000 White Owls were sold in one year at 5-cents, but also from the fact that they rolled up a huge sales score in every section of the country from coast-to-coast—in the east, in the central section and in the west. In other words, it must be obvious that White Owl enjoys country-wide popularity and that, in scoring its sales REMAINS QUEEN A WESTFIELD. N.J.—Miss Ora Washington, of Philadelphia, kept her singles crown unattnished here Saturday when she defeated Mrs. Francis Gluten, of New York, 4-6, 6-2, 6-3, in the finals of the American Tennis Association play. record, smokers in cities, towns and villages everywhere tried White Owl and found its tobacco to their taste. Display Increases Profits Alert dealers in every section, noting the increase in White Owl sales and the seige gun advertising that aims to further increase them, report that—by placing the White Owl box on top of the case—they cash in to the fullest possible extent on the advertising. And the more prominent the position of the box, they say, the greater is the sale of White Owls—and correspondingly the greater their profits. Backed as they are by powerful, persistent White Owl advertising in leading newspapers, all dealers—large or small—can reap a full harvest of profits on the advertising by putting the White Owl box on top of the counter. By displaying White Owls in a prominent place, they will unquestionably cash in to the fullest extent on the present and future seige gun White Owl advertising, which aims to send more and more smokers into their stores for White Owls.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, AUGUST 26, 1932 Cardozo Wins Third Consecutive Title By Capturing "Olympiad" By ARTHUR CARTER For the second successive season the Cardozo Playground team winners of the District Playground track and field championship in 1930, retained its title by winning the "Playground Olympics" held before 2,000 enthusiastic spectators at the Walker Memorial Stadium Wednesday. The southwest squad coached by the youthful Milton Robinson, former Dunbar High School star athlete, amassed a total of 32 points to capture the celebrated championships. Willowtree and Briggs playgrounds, who were deadlocked for second honors with 20 points each nosed out the fourth place team. Rose Park, which scored 19 points. A dozen other grounds figured in the point scoring during the four hours of competition. 1,500 Athletes Parade Patterned after the famous "Olympic Games" which were recently held in California, the competing athletes, who numbered approximately 1,500, paraded around the spacious stadium to open the athletic carnival in the morning. Headed by a bearer of their respective playground banners, the teams passed a group of reviewers which included Miss Sybil Baker, director of playgrounds; Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of schools; Col. West A. Hamilton, local publisher; Mrs. Ga briel Pelham, head of the Community Center Department, and Miss Maude Parker, director of girls' activities of District Playgrounds. Following this glorious parade, Lloyd Dudley, sturdy athlete of Willowtree Playground, took the Olympic cath on behalf of the veritable army of athletes and the meet was officially opened. Handicapped by the conditions under which they were forced to compete, the athletes failed to establish any new marks as was expected. Only one record was equalled. Lewis Bryant, of Francis, tied the 50-yard dash record of 7 seconds flat in the 85-pound class when he won the event by a close finish. The record established by Earl Wheeler, white, of Edmonds Playground, the day before, beat the old playground record of 7% seconds, which had stood since 1829. Though this feat and the 100-yard dash won by Bernard Riley, of Lincoln, in 10 4-5 seconds, just % seconds slower than the mark on the books were undoubtedly the features of the games, the huge crowd got its greatest thrill when 37 started in the half mile run, the longest race on the program. After trailing the pace-setter, Bill Miller, of Francis, and Ashe, of Briggs, who finished second and third, respectively, Robert Miller uncorked a sensational sprint on the final lap to win the event in the time of 2 minutes and 11 seconds, three seconds slower than the record. However, Miller who is a former Armstrong High School trackman, was disqualified and Bill Miller declared the winner. Behind by over 10 points with only four events to go, the Cardozo relay teams pulled to the front by winning three relays and placing third in the fourth. For some reason, unknown to the writer, the relays were not timed and it is not known whether or not the athletes (Continued on Page 14) PLEASANT PLAINS GRIDMEN GATHER PLEASANT PLAINS GRIDMEN GATHER Coaching Staff Outlines Plans For 1932 Season At Initial Meeting Pleasant Plains' football squad met for the first time this season Tuesday night, at the club house, 903 Euclid street, northwest.

S. Grant, 3d, director of public buildings and public parks announced recently. The project has already been approved by the National Capital Park Planning Commission. Colonel Grant, addressing a delegation of 100 citizens, headed by John A. Lankford, stated that Congress would be asked to appropriate $6,852.00 for the golf links for the colored citizens of the District of Columbia. He stated that the plans called for construction of a modern eighteen-hole course and the creation of a modernly equipped caddy house with showers, rest and dining rooms, kitchen, accommodations for men and women, and a repair shop. Adequate parking space will also be provided. The golf course will be located in Section G of Anacostia Park, now under construction. Lincoln A.C. Smothers Waterburg A.C., 25-2 The Lincoln A. C. defeated the Watersburg A. C. by a score of 25 to 2. Plater started on the mound for the Lincoln nine, but gave way to Charles Jones in the sixth, who finished the game. M. Brown, former Huntsville player, is now playing with the Lincoln team. F. Lancaster, formerly of the Brentwood team, has also donned the uniform of the Lincolns. Brown got three singles and a walk in four trips to the plate. Sunday, Lincoln will play Fair Factor A. C. at Lincoln.

SPORT WORLD FOURTEEN NEW TOURNEY TO BEGIN SATURDAY Mid-Eastern Open To Be Held On Howard University Campus The Washington Tennis Association will hold its annual Mid-Eastern Open Tournament from August 27 to September 2, on the Howard University courts. According to the number of entries received thus far, the tournament promises to be better than ever. Ted Thompson, the present champion, will attempt an annex another leg on the Lichtman Trophy by defeating such performers as Tally Holmes, many times national and District champion; Oscar Murray, "chop artist;" Johnny Wilkinson, the old master; Roscoe Lewis, Melvin Lancaster, Frank Perkins, Mickey Syphax, Lenor Cook, Clyde Freeman, Lawrence Byrd, Dudley Woodward, Allison Davis, "Babe" flashy Baltimore star; Jack Spencer, Baltimore's number one man; and the hard-serving Dick Whittington, another of Baltimore's aces. In the men's doubles even to Brown and Wilkerson, last year's winners, will find the going a little rough when they meet such teams as Holmes and Thompson, Cook and Perkins, Lewis and Lancaster, L. Brown and Byrd, Murray and Freeman, Webb and Kendrick, Jackson and Sewell, Jones and Spencer, and Whittington and Weaver, the latter two teams are from Baltimore, and are seeking to carry the laurels to their native city. The ladies' singles will be most interesting this year, as quite a number of players of high calibre are expected to participate. Little Carolyn Green will be fortunate if she is able to retain her singles crown against such an aggregation of feminine stars as Anita Gant, nationally prominent; the hard-driving Jeanne Downing, clever Frances Stewart; the fighting Helen Webb Harris; the cool and calm Peters sisters; Dorothy Thomas, holder of a club tournament victory over Mrs. Green this year; Edna Burke, Howard University champion; Lucille Freeman; Pauline Wharton, Baltimore champion; Helen Bright; and Daisy Baily, also of Baltimore. In addition to the players mentioned above many out-of-town players from the Southeastern open championships, now being held at Petersburg, Va., this week, are expected to stop over and play. Entry blanks may be obtained from Arthur Green at the Twelfth Street Branch of the Y.M.C.A. CARDOZO WINS (Continued from page 13) bore or equalled the marks in these events.

JOHN GILBERT IS CAST AS VILLAIN "Downstairs," which introduces John Gilbert to his screen fans in a startling new departure as a sinister but colorful villain, is the attraction coming Friday to the Booker H. Theatre. The story of "Downstairs" was written by Gilbert himself. Originally he intended to direct Erich von Stroheim in it, which gives some hint as to the nature of the extraordinary role in which Gilbert upsets all precedents and abandons his former type of romantic heroes for a villianous characterization. "Downstairs" is a tense drama laid in the servants' quarters of an European castle with Gilbert, as a chauffeur, spreading a web of intrigue that enmishes the entire household until a fantastic revenge ends his plotting. Virginia Bruce, whose betrothal to Gilbert was announced during the making of the picture, plays the heroine as the maid and Paul Lukas enacts the avenging butler who lures the philandering chauffeur to a terrible doom. Hedda Hopper is seen as a countess with whom the chauffeur has an affair; Reginald Owen plays the baron in whose ancestral castle the dramatic events are laid; Olga Baclanova plays the pleasure-loving baroness and Bodil Rosing has the role of the love-starved cook whose life savings are stolen by the unprincipled chauffeur. The cast also includes Otto Hoffman, Lucian Littlefield and Marion Lessing. CAB CALLOWAY TO OPEN AT HOWARD After being closed since June 10, the Howard Theatre will open September 10, with Cab Calloway and his "Hi-De-Ho Revue" of 75 people, Shap Allen, manager, announced this week. Mr. Allen said several alterations will be made to the theatre to make it more comfortable and attractive. During the three months the house has been closed Mr. Allen has seured the country for new attractions and will be in position to give Washington the best shows on the road. Many major attractions that were tied under contracts last year are now under contract to play at the popular T street house, and will not be seen at any other theatre here until after their appearance at the Howard. Cab has added to his orchestra, which is now considered the peer of musical organizations in this country. First run RKO pictures will also be shown at the theatre. Manassas Horse Show To Hold Exhibition Sept. 3-5 The Manassas Horse Show held under the auspices of the newly-organized and chartered Manassas Horse Show and Fair Association, will stage its thirty-first annual exhibition on its extensive grounds near Manassas, Virginia, on Saturday and Monday (Labor Day), September 3 and 5. The management, in announcing the change of dates from Monday and Tuesday to Saturday and Monday offers to the public a Labor Day week-end with Sunday between the two exhibition days on which day the grounds will be open free of admission for social intercourse and a musical festival from 6 to 7 p.m. TO OPEN HOWARD 1930 Cub Calloway, His Royal Highness of Hi-De-Ho, will be the opening attraction at the Howard Theatre on Saturday, September 10. The Cotton Club orchestra and the "Hi-De-Ho Revue" of 75 people will make this one of the greatest attractions of the fall and winter season. To Make His First Screen Appearance In "The Man Called Back" Conrad Nagel will make his first screen appearance at the Republic Theatre on Sunday through Wednesday in "The Man Called Back." With Nagel in "The Man Called Back" and Doris Kenyon, John Halliday, Juliette Compton, Reginald Owens and many others.

This is a drama of human emotions, living, loving, pulsing people brought to grips with fate and destiny. Opening Thursday and running through Saturday, Peggy Shannon, Clara Bow's successor as the personification of "IT," plays the feature role at the head of a large and prominent cast in "Hotel Continental." Miss Shannon will be seen in the role of a shrew adcompile of a pair of clever crooks who have a grim rendezvous on the last night of a famous hotel's existence. Theodore von Eltz plays opposite Miss Shannon.

This picture will run for one week. And the interest manifest in "White Zombie" would seem to bear him out. "White Zombie" concerns itself with dead bodies in Haiti which, through sorcery, are taken from the grave and put to work as slaves. It is eerie in the extreme, but the interest in it is tremendous. "I have set an arbitrary figure at ninety per cent," declared Browning, "but I am not sure that the average shouldn't be higher. O. Henry once remarked that more people would gather to look at a dead horse in the street than would assemble to watch the finest coach pass by, and this homely observation comes very close to representing the actual fact. High School Principal Seeks Divorce From Wife MEMPHIS, Tenn.—B. T. Hunt, who was very recently appointed principal of the Booker Washington High School, to succeed the late Prof. George F.

DYES HAIR RED TO TAKE LEAD in "RED HEADED WOMAN" "Red Headed Woman," Katharine Brush's widely-read novel of a stenographer who capitalized on her sex appeal, comes to the screen at last with Jean Harlow, her famous platinum-blonde hair changed to a flaming red, in the title role. The picture will open Sunday at the Broadway Theatre. Practically every red-haired actress in Hollywood was given tests for this highly-coveted part before decision was reached by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer officials to assign the role to Miss Harlow, providing she would change the color of her tresses. Report has it that the alteration has given the noted heroine of "Hell's Angels" an entirely new personality, as well as giving her appearance a totally different aspect.

ALBERT WOOD (War-time member of the famous Lafayette Esuadrille) The main objection raised to the full payment of the Veteran's Adjusted Service Certificate by the opponent or opponents of the Patman Bill are namely: (1) The increasing of the amount of currency in circulation in the United States by printing of new currency as proposed by champions of the Soldiers' Bonus. It is the contention of the writer that it would not be necessary to print new currency and if this was done it would be detrimental to the Nation's business, due to the inflation of present values. (2) The increasing of taxes in order to raise funds necessary to pay off the Adjusted Service Certificate. The writer can readily see that this would also be detrimental, due to the already overburnened condition of the tax payers at the present time. (3) A bond issue as proposed by the backers of the Patman Bill which had no backing of the United States Treasury, would be called fiat money in circulation today. To increase this by the amount of two billion, four hundred million dollars ($2,400,000,000) BODY WORK A NEW TOP OF DOUBLE TEXTURE SPORT MATERIAL $12 Including Rear Curtain TAILORED TO YOUR CAR Waterproof, good looking, and a credit to the quaint.

NORTH 9674 RIDE WITH MILES OF SMILES IN A GOOD USED would so weaken the financial structure of the country as to seriously threaten a complete collapse. The above sums up the main points of argument against the Patman Bill and, when considered from an economic standpoint, the only arguments to be presented against them would be of such a nature as to completely uphold these arguments in full. Therefore a new plan has to be presented which will completely overcome these objections before any action of a favorable nature can be expected from Congress. The plan formulated by the First Regiment Organ Unit, B. E. F., upon which they are basing their hopes of a full, immediate payment of the Soldiers' Bonus, without printing additional currency or without taxing the tax payers is as follows: (1) Congress to authorize money checks to be issued to the Veterans in full amount of their payments; in lieu of checks the present Adjusted Service Certificate could be used as a negotiable bond in its present form. (2) Congress to issue a mandate ordering the banks to honor said checks or certificates in one of the following ways: To either cash the checks allowing the Veterans "free use" of existing United States currency to the amount of their claims, or to accept them on deposit as being legitimate, labor and service earned bank deposit money'. (The right of Congress to create and issue money was definitely settled by the United States Supreme Court in 1884 through the decision rendered in the case of Juliardi versus Greenman.) It is a recognized fact that the present economic condition, from the financial standpoint, is mainly due to the lack of negotiable bonds. The currency of the country has come under the control of a few large corporations who are jealously guarding their holdings. As a result, big business has become dependent more and more on negotiable securities. The present situation is brought about by the lack of negotiable securities with which to transact business. Several of the leading financiers of the country, including Mr. Wiggins of the Chase National Bank, New York City, have openly stated that an amount of three billion dollars in negotiable security form would practically eliminate the present financial crisis. If this be true, the writer wishes to bring out this point: That the amount of the Adjusted Service Certificates is two billion, four hundred million dollars, or in other words lacks a few million dollars of the figures set by our leading financiers as necessary to start the wheels of progress turning and to bring back prosperity. This is the plan which the reorganized B. E. F. is backing, and the program of action to be taken to bring this plan before Congress is a program of legislative action. The writer fails to see any way that this issue can be avoided and feels that if successful, it will not only benefit the Veterans but the Nation as a whole. Last week we gave 112-860-525.

ALEXANDER Acute Diseases FIFTEEN SIXTEEN OVER 600 ATTEND CAMP PLEASANT DURING SEASON Exercises Mark Closing Of Camp Saturday Night Camp Pleasant has closed after one of the most successful seasons of its existence. There were 615 campers attending in the four parties. Of these there were 100 mothers, 236 boys, and 279 girls. This number represents the largest ever accommodated at camp. The capacity of the camp is about 136, but due to present conditions it was necessary to overcrowd. Generally, one tent will accommodate about seven or eight persons, but this season some tents held as many as eleven or twelve. Due to the shortage of cots and cot-space two small children often had to share the same cot, one at the head and the other at the foot. The camp staff of councillors and workers numbers thirty. It has been due to the excellent co-operation of the councillors and workers that the camp program has been put over so successfully. The members of the staff were always willing and anxious to render what ever service seemed necessary to the putting over of an efficient and effective program for the benefit and pleasure of the campers. Due largely to the attitude of the councillors and workers toward their work and the campers, and to ideal camp weather with a minimum of mosquitoes, there were only twenty-five campers discharged from camp during the whole two months. Heretofore, there have been nearly 100 discharged because of home-sickness, wet weather, etc. Last year a library was added to the camp. The public library very willingly lends 150 children's books for the season. These books are selected by the camp librarian. Also, due to the vacation plan at the library, some books for grown-ups have been obtained on campers' cards for the use of mothers, councillors and workers. This year the library has been used constantly. The mothers seemed to do more reading than last year. It was necessary to have two councillors supervise it. This year a studio and workshop was added to the camp. In it the mothers and children did their sewing, drawing, painting, sketching, stenciling, designing etc. The mothers of the last party were organized into a permanent club to function during the winter in the city. Officers of the club are: President Mrs. Lottie Bradley; vice-president, Mrs. Mable Major; secretary-treasurer, Mrs. Nannie Staples. The idea of organizing the mothers into permanent groups was begun during the second party. It is hoped that the idea will amount to something beneficial to the campers in getting together during the winter and putting over needful programs, etc. The campers were favored during one of their story-hour periods in having two radio artists from Station WOL, Mrs. Dee Shannon and Miss Lontine Gallahorn, entertain with stories and music. The children continued to "cry" for another story or another song. The final program given by the campers consisted of scenes from "Hiawatha," songs, dramatic readings, dances, and stunts. On the last Saturday night the councillors gave a "review" in which all the councillors gave freely of their talents for the entertainment of the campers. Many friends from the city were present at both final programs. Hydrogenation, the famous process which nearly won the war for Germany, has finally furnished an answer to the lubrication problem of the modern high compression motor after 20 years of unending research. In the last 10 years the automobile has increased 22 per cent in speed and 50 per cent in power. High-test fuels have been developed to meet the demands of the high compression motor. Through hydrogenation, which won for its German discoverers, Doctors Bosch and Bergius, the 1921 Nobel Prize for Chemistry, offers for the first time a motor lubrication for the car of today. Today the same process which helped Germany to stand off the world by enabling out of nitrogen from the air when her supply from the outside was shut off, has accomplished with the assistance of scientists of the Standard Oil Development Company the process in this country. "Tailor-made" lubrication, obtained through hydrogenation towers to operate the high compression motors, is offered by the Standard company through the brand name of Essolube and the company's engineers predict it should introduce a new era of trouble-proof motoring.

JUNIOR AIR LEGION TO HOLD EXHIBIT JUNIOR AIR LEGION TO HOLD EXHIBIT Many Types And Models Of Planes Will Be Shown At Y. M. C. A. Members of the Junior Air Legion, member of the National Negro Air Legion, had a busy day at Dunbar High School Thursday in preparation for the Public Exhibition to be held at the Twelfth Street Branch of the Y.M.C.A. in September. Fifty or more types of various models of planes will be put on exhibition. Interest and enthusiasm is running high among the junior legioners. Among those to finish their "Baby R.O.G. models" were Messrs. Mozart, King, Frank Toliver and William McNeal. These enthusiasts are looking forward with great pride to the flight tests that will be held soon. Already they are boasting their superiority in the craft as they begin the more advanced models. The surprise guest and enlistment for the evening was Luther Jackson, a veteran of the industry, Meeting the requisite of all Legioners, Mr. Jackson completed his "Baby R.O.G. Model" before the meeting adjourned and because of his expert knowledge he was appointed one of the instructors and has been assigned to the Corp consisting of Miss Grace Beckwith and Mr. William "Bill" Ellis. Mr. Jackson has under construction a Polish Fighter Z.L.I. a new type of the flying scale models and one that is familiar to model airplane fans. Miss Grace Beckwith, secretary of the Legion is building the latest plane of the U.S. Navy "The Akron Fighter," the plane that is hooked on the dirigible "Akron." It is a solid model with a 12 inch span, She is the pride of the Air Legion, having shown real ingenuity in constructing the "Supermarine S. 6 B." of the seaplane type which floats perfectly on water also the "Curtiss Hawk P. 6. E." Another outstanding character has been the president, William "Bill" Ellis, who has recently completed three models of the latest Army and Navy fighting ships. The group includes one of the newest addition to the U. S. Army Corp, "The Curtiss Hawk P. 6. E.", "The Boering P. 12. C" and also the U.S. Navy Ship "The Curtiss Hell Divers." President Ellis extends a cordial invitation to all boys and girls within the age limit (12 to 21 years) to attend the Legion's meetings every Thursday evening at 7 p.m. sharp, at the Dunbar High School Community Center. J. McCoy Hanson, who has been conducting these classes since last May expressed gratitude at the wonderful progress made by advanced students who will shortly begin the "Educational Course in the Ground Work of Simple Aerodynamics, the Airplane and its parts and their functions.

This oil is a result of the great hydrogenation discovery. Hydrogenation of atmospheric nitrogen was the chemical secret that enabled Germany to produce unlimited quantities of explosives and thus to "carry on" years after the experts considered her continued struggle impossible. Hydrofining, developed by the Standard Oil scientists, is an advanced process which makes the hydrogenation of motor oil commercially possible. Hydrofining gives Essolube all the five essential qualities for complete lubrication. The finest Paraffinic oils have three of these essential qualities. Naphthenic (Asphaltic) oils have two of them. Essolube, by hydrofining, combines all five qualities. There has been no commercial method before hydrofining that combined the good qualities of these two types of oil. It is so superior to all other oils that we are not only proud to name it after its companion product in quality, Esso, DRAIN your crankcase and REFILL with JONES' SERVICE STATION Georgia Avenue at "V" Street, N.W.

The accident occurred near midnight while the boy was riding west on Wilberberger street between S and T collided with a machine owned and operated by William Henry Ward, 32, 1448 Park road, northwest. Ward was traveling south on the same street. As the boy emerged from an alley between a bakery and 1513 Wilberberger street he ran into the automobile. Smith was thrown to the ground and received a fractured skull. Ward took the injured boy to Freedmen's Hospital where he was pronounced dead by Dr. Albert Anderson on Monday. Following an inquest at the District Morgue Tuesday morning the death of Smith was held accidental and Ward was exonerated. Following the accident Ward was arrested and held at No. 2 Precinct pending the inquest. The brakes and lights on his car were tested by members of the Traffic Bureau and found to be in good condition. Those to testify at the inquest were John D. Talbert, 3119 Eleventh street; Dr. Georgia Odin, Freedmen's Hospital staff; and Sergeant Dennis J. Murphy, of the Homicide Squad. The funeral of young Smith was held Thursday.

Communist Expels Member For Refusing Daughter To Dance With Colored Man Linden, N. J. —Because he condoned the action of his daughter in refusing to dance with a Negro, Andrew Matlaga, white, was last week publicly expelled from the Communist Party here. About a month ago, at a dance arranged by the International Labor Defense, Matlaga's young daughter refused the invitation of a Negro to dance. In this action, she was upheld by her father. When Negro and white workers, fellow-members of the Communist Party, brought charges against Matlaga, he attempted to defend himself by saying that this was a "purely personal affair." This statement was bitterly condemned by Rebecca Grece, white, Jersey organizer for the Communist Party, when she presented herself at a meeting of Matlaga's Party group to urge his expulsion. Miss Grecht, in her speech, explained the significance of the fight for social equality for the Negro people. She pointed out that the question of Matlaga is, in essence, the position of the lynchers of the South, since it leads in practice to persecution and oppression. When Matlaga insisted that his expulsion was unjustified because he was "in the habit of talking to Negroes, discussing political questions with them," etc., Miss Grecht, supported by the white and Negro members of the Party present, pointed out that the question of social equality was the touchstone of the whole matter, and that on this question Matlaga was in agreement with the Southern landlords and bosses. Matlaga was expelled from the Communist Party by unanimous vote of the Linden group. A great deal of the religion of the present hour is a dead philosophy.—Philpott.

YOUTHFUL GANG OF TAXI BANDITS SOUGHT BY POLICE Two Drivers Held Up And Robbed By Same Gang Police Believe Taxi bandits proved active during the past week as two almost identical holdup cases were reported to police. Raymond. Fitzpatrick. of 605 Eighteenth street, northwest, was hired by two youths at North Carolina avenue and H streets, northwest, about 2 a.m. Sunday, and told to drive them to Sheriff road and Eastern avenue, northeast. At Bell place and Eastern avenue the men grabbed Fitzpatrick around the neck and attacked him with a crank handle that had been lying on the floor of the cab. They robbed him of a pocketbook containing a District operator's permit and about $3.50 in cash. Fitzpatrick told police that one of the men was about 22 years old, five feet five inches in height, brown-skinned and was wearing a small moustache, khaki pants, dirty brown jacket and cap. The other wore dark clothes, was about 22 years old and five feet 7 in height and also brown skinned. Although he was not acquainted with either, Fitzpatrick said he could identify them on sight. Another Driver Robbed Alphonso Sibley, of 142 Twenty- third road, northeast, was the vic- tim of a similar experience. Pick- ing up three men at Twelfth and Florida avenue, northwest, about 11:40 Saturday night, he was told to go to Fifty-second and Eastern avenue. When he arrived he was held up at the point of a pistol and robbed of $.10 in cash. The hold- up men escaped in his taxi but he recovered it a few minutes later at Fifty-sixth street and Eastern avenue. All of the youths were described to police as being about 18 or 19 years old and of medium height. All wore dark clothes and one had a white cap. Death Rate Among Negroes In Washington Is 21.9 Washington has a Negro population of 135,000 out of a total of 491,000, according to the weekly statistical report of the week ending August 20 and released by the Health Department today. The death rate for the District 15.7. The rate for colored is 21.9 compared with 13.3 for whites. The colored rate shows a slight decrease over the same period for 1931. There were 214 births reported during the week of which 79 were colored. The birth rate per 100 for colored is 30.4 compared with 19.7 for whites. There were a total of 148 deaths during the week of which 57 were colored and 91 whites. Escapes Injury In Jump Appartently suffering from a nervous disorder, William T.

In the fifth set however, with a series of other faulty decisions, the spectators gave way to their emotions and acted more as if they were witnessing a prize fight than a tennis match. Jackson was cook but Weir was obviously unnerved. He, however, brought the set up from 1-4 against him to 7 all. Jackson won the next game making the score 8-7 in his favor. In the game following the score went to "deuce." Jackson won the next point—his advantage. The point which followed (Weir serving) is the one in dispute. The first ball was a "fault." The second, Jackson made no effort to play, evidently taking it to be a double fault; the gallery obviously felt the same way. Weir evidently conceded it to be such by advancing to the net to shake hands with Jackson. The ampire confused, as he seemed to be all through the match, permitted this before calling for a decision of the linesman, who declared the ball good. The point was scored in favor of Weir, bringing the game back to "deuce" and the players ordered to continue the play. The gallery was in an uproar. Weir intensely nervous and Jackson thoroughly disgusted continued to play with the result that Weir won the set, 11-9, thus completing and winning the match, 0-6, 6-2, 1-6, 6-3, 11-9. The players shook hands. The gallery booed. The boys walked off the courts. Jackson with his usual calm, but Weir with tears in his eyes. It was obvious that he did not want to win under these conditions. Both young men were victims of inefficiency on the part of the linesmen and the umpire. At one point in the game when the score was "deuce" the umpire called it as Jackson's advantage, play continued with the loss of this point for Weir. In the midst of another game he (the umpire) deliberately vacated his seat and stepped down to the surface of the court to engage in an argument with a linesman, and only after Referee Burke ordered him back to his seat did play continue. Nathaniel Jackson had yet to play his doubles match with his brother Franklin as partner. They played against Turner and Hudlin and were defeated. It was clear, however, that "Nat" after the twying experience of his singles match was not "fit" and the strain of the doubles was on Franklin. Umpire's Association Needed Edmund Burke about two years ago advocated the formation of an umpire's association in order to train men to efficiently carry out the rules of the game. Up to the present time nothing has been done along this line. It is to be hoped however that this recent glaring evidence of the need for such training will arouse the officials of the American Tennis Association to take the necessary steps in order to train men not only as umpires but as linesmen. The trophies were presented by H. Stanton McCard, M.D., first president of the A. T. A. Mr. Weir when called upon to accept the trophy which according to the official record of his match he was entitled, asked Referee Burke to speak for him. Mr. Burke stated that Reggie, always a good sport, and as fine a type of youth that the country has produced, desired to decline the honor of the trophy and to pass same on to Nathaniel Jackson, "Cups and trophies," he said, had little value when the circumstances incidental to their acquisition were such as all present witnessed Dr. McCard then presented the cup to Mr. Jackson, but Cleveland L. Abbott, coach at Tuskegee Institute, speaking for "Nat" said that he could not accept it. Here again we find another evidence of good sportsmanship. The question now is, who is the champion? The next annual tournament will be held at Hampton Institute, Hampton, Va. Missing Girl, Child Found Thelma Johnson, 17, and the infant daughter of Helen Williams, 1505 Tenth street, northwest, who disappeared from the above address Wednesday were found at 753 Howard street, northwest, yesterday.

FIGHT OVER JAR OF LIQUOR LEADS TO MAN'S DEATH Physicians Claim Man Died Of Acute Alcoholism After Fight In spite of the fact that physicains attached to Freedman's and Gallinger Hospitals and Deputy Coroner C. J. Murphy testified that Odie Thompson, of the 2200 block of Eighth street, northwest, died as a result of an odema of the brain to acute alcoholism, Sidney Cotton, of the same block, was ordered held for action of the grand jury following an inquest Tuesday afternoon. Cotton is alleged to have cut Thompson about the left forearm and abdomen while attempting to act as a mediator between Thompson and John Fitzhugh, of 2264 Eighth street, northwest. Fitzhugh said his wife, Rebecca, gave Thompson his last dollar for a jar of liquor. When Thompson failed to deliver the liquor, Fitzhugh went to his house to collect. An argument followed. Cotton, who happened to be passing by, intervened and asked Fitzhugh not to argue with Thompson. Thompson took offense at this and struck Cotton, who fell to his knees. Arising, Cotton drew a small sharp instrument and cut at his assailant, inflicting the flesh wounds. Thompson ran into the house of Howard Preston and cried out that he had been cut, declaring that it was Cotton who had committed the deed. Preston walked him to Freedmen's Hospital, where he was treated by Dr. G. E. Oden, of the emergency staff. He refused to remain for further treatment and returned home after his wounds had been sutured. A few hours later, according to Dr. Oden's testimony, he put in a call for the Freedmen's ambulance, saying that he had weakened considerably since leaving the hospital and wanted to return for proper treatment. Brought back and placed in a ward, he soon became unmanageable and it became necessary to transfer him to Gallinger, where his trouble was diagnosed as a case of delirium tremens caused by acute alcoholism. Death was attributed to a deprivation of alcohol during hospitalization. Says Negroes Forced To Work For Free Flour NEW VORK.—Negroes in Palm Beach county, Fla. are being forced to work for the free flour sent for distribution by the American Red Cross, according to word which has reached the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People here. White people are given the flour without any red tape. Not only must Negroes work for the flour, but they are paid the lowest possible wage so that they can barely earn enough each day to eat. In the town of Belle Glade Negroes are paid thirty cents a day and in South Bay fifty cents a day. The bags of flour are plainly marked "not to be sold." The N.A.A.C.P. has referred the complaint to the Red Cross headquarters in Washington. Chamber Of Commerce Asked To Include Negro Voters NEW YORK.—The Junior Chamber of Commerce of the United States has been asked by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to include Negro voters in its campaign to get, out 50 million votes in the fall election. The N.A.A.C.P. was asked by the Junior Chamber of Commerce to cooperate with it in urging American citizens to use their ballots. The N.A.A.C.P. replied that its job is one of getting opportunity for Negroes to vote in the states where they are disfranchised and seeing to it that they are granted their full citizenship rights in other states of the union.

The jury was out two hours before the verdict was reached. It was said that a colored member on the panel held out for holding the man for the action of the grand jury. Testimony by several white men and women in the neighborhood all alleged that several houses in the neighborhood had been looted within the last several months, but it was brought out that none of those testifying had lost anything thru robberies. One white woman testified that a month ago when she went on her back porch to her ice box she saw a pair of "black hands" coming out of one of the compartments. She failed to say whether the face that owned these "black hands" was white or black. It was pointed out that white hands become black with dirt. All of the white witnesses testified that they had found their garage doors open, but none had missed anything or reported the matter to police. The killing of the boy which is said to be one of the most brutal in the history of Washington was done on a vacant lot, some 80 yards from where residents lived. Cannole said he had seen a man "prowling" around the neighborhood the night before, although he admitted that the alley in the rear or his house was a public passageway and people frequently used it night and day as a short cut. The policeman said the boy was "crouching" on his stomach on the lot which is situated on a hill in the rear of the house and is in the rear of Mount Horab Baptist Church, a colored edifice. The lot is used by boys of the neighborhood and on the night Young was killed he was playing "Indian" with several other boys of the neighborhood. Cannole said after seeing the boy "crouchling" on the hill he gathered two if his neighbors. Lawrence W. Bailey, 216 Seventeenth street, and Gilbert B. Boyd, 1112 D street, northeast. Cannole said he gave one of the men his black jack and asked them to help him catch the boy. The policeman said on approaching the boy he yelled to him to halt, and the boy ran. While running Cannole said the youth made a half turn and "made a move to his right hip pocket". It was then he fired at the boy once, the bullet piercing his neck. There were no other witnesses to the shooting as the other two men were some 75 yards away. Lovejoy Student Young is a student at Lovejoy School and is well liked in the neighborhood. He was considered a brilliant pupil by his teachers. His companions ran after the shooting and have refused to tell police their side of the tragic affair. Although Cannole declared he yelled to the boy to halt, his two companions denied that they heard such a warning and only heard the shot. Nettie A. Sheppherd, a white woman, 214 Seventeenth street, said she had seen men in the neighborhood several times and had "heard" of neighbors missing empty bottles from their back porches. Lula Bailey, white, 216 Seventeenth street, northeast, also "had heard" of neighbors "missing things" but she had missed nothing and police of the Ninth Pricinct said no report had been made to them about these "missing articles". Mary M. Cannole, wife of the policeman, said the house in which she and her husband are roomers, was broken into some time ago, but police failed to have received a report on the alleged robbery. The alley in rear of the block where the boy was killed was not lighted, a Tribune reporter found, and some 25 or 30 boys in the community use a vacant lot in rear of the alley for a playground. Whites who live in Seventeenth street objected to the boys using this lot as it was on a hill and commanded a view of rear bedroom windows on Seventeenth street. Colored people live in the same block on Sirtteenth street. George A. Young, father of the boy, said he plans to bring civil action against the policeman and has reported the killing to the local Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The father pointed out that the boy never had a chance to defend himself and said his son had a perfect right to play on the lot. It was also said Cannole should have called the Ninth Precinct if he suspected the boys were trying to break into any houses and had no right to take the law in his own hands as he has no more authority than any other private citizen in shooting people. Mrs. Young, mother of the boy, was prostrated when she learned her son had been killed and is under a physician's care. Mr. Young said when his boy failed to come home Thursday he investigated and identified his son's body at the morgue. BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL SEE THE SENSATIONAL USED CAR BARGAINS ON PAGE 8 BUY TODAY AND WHEN BUYING MENTION THE Washington Tribune "A 100% Washington Industry" VISITOR KILLED AFTER STEALING HOST'S CHICKEN Goes To Get Man Glass Of Water, Returns To Find Fowl Missing Charged with the murder of "Shad" Crawford, 30, of the 1000 block of First street, northwest, Luther Bell Spencer, of the 5900 block of Clay street, northeast, was ordered held for action of the grand jury after a coroner's inquest, Tuesday. Spencer told the coroner's jury that an argument over a chicken had precipitated the fight in which Crawford was stabbed. He said that four men visited him about four o'clock Sunday afternoon and asked him for a drink. The four were old friends of his, so he went out and returned a few minutes later with drinks for all of them. After a long and jovial conversation one of the men asked for a drink of ice water. Spencer went to chop the ice, and while he was doing this he heard a commotion in his back yard. He went into the yard where a neighbor told him that the men had taken one of his chickens. He looked in his chicken house and found one missing, then returned to the front of the house and accused one of the four of attempting to steal his chicken. Searching the car, he found the missing chicken in the front seat and handed it to his wife. Then, he claims, Crawford hit him upon no provocation at all. In the fight that ensued all four of the men jumped upon him. In an effort to protect himself he struck out with the ice pick, which was still in his hand. He hit Crawford in the chest, then ran indoors and closed the doors and windows. The men left, carrying their wounded companion to the hospital. Spencer went to visit a relative in Virginia, that night, he said, and returned home the next morning. Finding police waiting there for him, he hid in the woods nearby until apprehended Tuesday night by detectives of the homicide squad. He was held by police for investigation until Crawford died Monday afternoon, when the charge against him was changed to murder. Bishop J. A. Gregg Speaks Before Mixed Church Group SPRINGFIELD, Ill.—Among the speakers invited by the Program Committee of the Summer Union Service is Bishop J. A. Gregg of Kansas, bishop of the African Methodist, Episcopal Church. The Sumer Union Service is an institution sponsored by the churches of central Illinois, both white and colored. About sixty churches were represented Sunday, and Bishop Gregg addressed the audience on the subject, "What Can Kill Faith?" Herman Jackson, 25, of Silver Spring, Md., was seriously injured when a tree fell on him while working Wednesday. He was helping to move a tree at Thirtyfirst and Tennison streets, northwest, when it fell on him pinning him to the ground. He was released by fellow workmen. At Emergency Hospi where he was taken he w- have sustained a fractured r collarbone and several fractures ribs. WOMAN HELD IN TORCH MURDER (Continued from page 1) gathered at her home early in the evening and started to shoot craps. She said she remonstrated with her husband about 12:30 and told him it was her understanding that when they moved into the K street house there was to be no gambling. She said she asked him to come to bed, but he refused. Later, she testified, he came up stairs and went to bed. Awakened By Smoke The woman's state that she was awakened some time later by the smell of smoke and when she went downstairs she found the lower floors filled with smoke. Mrs. Clay said Scott was walking about the room and appeared to be suffering. She ran out doors and screamed and when others came to her aid the man was severely burned. Captain Morris Murphy of No. 10 Truck and No. 4 Engine responded to the alarm. Nothing was burned in the house except, an oil table covering and the clothes worn by Scott. Mrs. Mabel Wallace, a cousin of the dead man, said she talked with Scott at the hospital in the presence of a nurse and the man did not appear to know what he was saying. She said he hambled and although he recognized her at times he was semi-conscious. Milton Henson, 18-year-old youth who lives with the Clays, said he left the men sitting up and talking and went to bed. When he was awaken he said he came down stairs to find the room full of smoke. He said he followed Mrs. Clay down the steps. Walter Briscoe Clay testified that he also was awakened at about the same time his wife got out of bed. He denied that he had had a fight with his wife or that she threw a lamp at him. Said Scott Was Drunk Mrs. Clay contended that Scott was drunk when she left the lower floor and denied having a fight with her husband. She said at one time she threw a brick at Clay when he attempted to strike her, but never threw a lamp at him. She said she has been pleading with her husband to stop gambling and permitting others to come to the house and gamble. Scott died at Emergency Hospital the same day. He was burned from his neck to his knees, Deputy Coroner C. J. Murphy pointed out to the c jury that it was nearly impossible for the man to have sustained the burns in his back as he was alleged to have been sleeping while sitting in a chair with his arms and head on the table where the lamp was. a ry 5 — F=SOCIAL HIGHLI K ab $ oe \ Pera Card Parties Feature Gaities [Dr Brazier Entertained By| "CNinirain LABOR Dx ] ¢ ENTERTAIN LABOR DA’ At Highland Beach During Week| ™* oa eee od The Pioneer Anglers Club De A.

(CNS)—Because he believed in "spirits" William Yeager, an aged man, is minus the sum of $280. Two Gypsy women in what appeared to be a new Chevrolet sedan, bearing New York State license tags, drove up to the house of Yeager and in order to gain entrance told him that the "spirits" had sent them to help him. Yeager let them in and gave them his money bag to "spirit." They did, they spirited it away. Yeager immediately notified the police who chased the car to Richmond where the film-flammers eluded the pursuers either by taking a by-road or hiding in the city. Gyssies for the past three months have made a practice of preying on credulous Negroes along the Eastern coast. Police are experiencing what practically amounts to opposition in their disposal of these cases. In two cases the Gyssies were not known as in this case, but twice previously they were identified but not prosecuted. Detective Howard Smith attached to police headquarters tracked down an organized gang of Gypsy swindlers after a recent case in Philadelphia and had them identi- UNI FOOD ST FOR SERVICE PHONE NAT.

GOOD FOOD Was Never So Cheap RECIPES FOR HOME AND CLUB AFFAIRS This food page is conducted with the intent of offering recipes that have been tried and found to be wholesome, quickly prepared, and economical. You are invited to send in your favorite recipe. Butter Is Low-Priced Now, So You Can Use It Freely Butter prices are the lowest they have been since 1900, according to a market specialist of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. During May, in New York City, you could buy at retail two pounds of the best grade butter for 39 cents, and for some weeks butter has retained between 20 and 30 cents a pound. Not so good for the dairyman, but that's the state of things, and there is no reason why the thrifty homemaker should not take advantage of present prices. Give the family plenty of the foods that you put butter on—vegetables that turn a spoonful of butter into a tempting hot golden sauce; hot bread—corn muffins, spoon bread, popovers, biscuits, and lots of butter. And don't forget sandwiches, spread generously with butter. It serves a two-fold purpose in addition to its rich food value. It adds flavor, and is also a liquid-proof coating for the bread, if you wish to put in a moist or minced filling. Incidentally, sandwich fillings will utilize a great many of the agravatting saucerfuls of lettuces that are too small to reheat. Just put the end of the ham or the leftover celery through the meat grinder, mix with butter, and some chopped lettuce, and spread, Open-faced sandwiches are also attractive.

You need not feel extravagant about making fairly rich cookies quite often just now. Like the delicious vanilla wafers for which a recipe is given below, drop cookies, brownies, sand tarts, rocks, and some of the many kinds of cup cakes are convenient to serve with summer beverages like iced tea or lemonade. Make good old-fashioned pound cake occasionally, and you can make some mocha or orange butter icing for your layer cakes for a change. Sauces containing a large amount of butter may be indulged in at present—Hollandiaise sauce with any green vegetable or fish—hard sauce with summer fruit puddings. VANILLA WAFERS ½ cup butter. ½ cup sugar. 1 egg. 2 tablespoons milk. 1¼ cups sifted flour. 1 teaspoon baking powder ¼ teaspoon salt. 2 teaspoons vanilla. Cream the butter and sugar, add the well-beaten egg, the milk, and the sifted dry ingredients, then the vanilla. Drop by half-teaspoonfuls on a lightly greased baking sheet, allowing room to spread. Bake in a moderate oven (about 350°F.) for about 10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. 2 YEARS TO PAY!

Wash and scrap the carrots and cut them in slices or dice. Cook in a small quantity of boiling salted water for 10 or 15 minutes or until tender, drain, add the butter, lemon juice, and parsley, and serve at once. Potatoes and other hot vegetables are good with this parsley and lemon butter as a sauce. WATERCRESS OR PARSLEY BUTTER ½ cup butter. $ \frac{3}{4} $ cup finely ground watercress or parsley. $ \frac{1}{4} $ teaspoon salt. Few drops tabasco sauce. $ \frac{1}{2} $ tablespoon lemon juice if desired. Cream the butter, add the finely ground watercress or parsley, salt tabasco sauce, and lemon juice, and stir until well blended. Use as a sandwich spread. If making fancy rolled sandwiches, place a sprig of watercress in each end. Stuffed Steak Among the less tender, and therefore less expensive cuts of beef, which are best cooked slowly, are flank steak and either top or bottom round. A savory stuffing adds new flavor, making a stuffed and braised flank or round an interesting variation from the more usual ways of serving these cuts. If a part is left over, it will be good sliced cold. Flank steaks vary in weight. The larger the flank steak the better for stuffing. Do not let the butcher score a flank steak that is to be stuffed. Roll it from the side, not the end, so that the meat will be cut across the grain in carving. In selecting round steak for stuffing and braising, see that it is cut from the portion where muscles are large and relatively few in number. It is best when cut ½ inch to ¾ inch thick. The stuffing given below will be equally good for either round or flank steak. STUFFED FLANK STEAK A flank steak. 1½ cups stale bread crumbs. Wipe the meat with a damp cloth. For the stuffing, brown the celery and the onion lightly in the fat and combine with the other ingredients. Spread the stuffing over the steak. Beginning at one side of the steak, roll it up like a jelly roll, and tie securely in several places with clean string. Sear in a small quantity of fat in a heavy skillet or a baking pan on top of the stove, and turn the meat frequently until browned on all sides.

INTERESTING FACTS FOR THE HOME- MAKER By Gertrude C. Frazier Jellied Vegetable Salad The jellied salad described is a combination of different vegetables in a binder of lemon flavored gelatin. The small individual molds make the salad plates especially attractive, but a ring or other fancy single mold might be used if the salad is served from a platter. While the blend of flavors selected is exceptionally good, other vegetables could be added or substituted, and the gelatin mixture could be made of meat stock stiffened with plain gelatin. JELLIED VEGETABLE SALAD 1/2 cup lemon jelly powder. 2 cups boiling water. 1/2 cup diced cooked turnips 1/2 cup chopped celery. 1 cup cooked green peas, fresh or canned. 1 No. 1 can red kidney beans. 1/2 reaspoon salt. Dissolve the jelly powder in the boiling water and set aside to chill. When the mixture begins to stiffen, add remaining ingredients. Mix carefully so as not to break the vegetables. Turn into small individual wet molds, or a single mold, and chill. Remove to a bed of lettuce or endive. Garnish with mayonnaise dressing. If prepared lemon-flavored gelatin is not available, make a pint of lemon jelly by mixing 1 tablespoon of plain gelatin with a half cup of cold water, then dissolving in 1½ cups of boiling water. When cool add 2 tablespoons lemon juice. In very warm weather add an additional half-tablespoon of gelatin. Fish Are Valuable Like other animal foods, fish is rich in protein. It is rich also in minerals, especially in phosphorus. Saltwater fish and shellfish are rich in iodine, which is another substance required by the human body.

Washington Tribune PATTERN DEPARTMENT 920 U St., N.W. and consequently the drinking water, and vegetables grown in that soil, are poor in iodine, the iodine content of saltwater fish is important. According to nutritionists of the U. S. Bureau of Fisheries, some kinds of fish, notably cod, salmon, haddock, and sea herring, have been found to be good sources of Vitamins A and D. It is well to use the oil in a can of salmon for sauce or in salad dressing, if possible, to obtain the full vitamin value. Because of its high food value, and comparatively little waste, it pays to watch the market for bargains in fish. Fresh fish bargains are likely to be a matter of locality and season. For example, the shad come up the Atlantic costal rivers in the spring. Atlantic salmon are caught in New England rivers in early spring. At the same time the boats and nets are out for lake trout in the Great Lakes, for mackerel along the Middle Atlantic Coast, and for Pacific salmon on the West Coast. Other fish are most plentiful in the fall or winter. Some of the best bargains in fishery products, however, are all-year fish from both fresh and salt water that are shipped, fresh, or fresh-frozen, to different parts of the country. Fresh haddock, mackerel, halibut, salmon, fresh cod, and various other fishes from the Atlantic and Pacific are frozen and shipped to many distant markets, as well as lake herring and blue and yellow pike from the lakes. Frozen fish, it should be remembered, are fresh fish. Canned sardines, canned pink salmon, kippered herring, salt cod, cod flakes, canned herring roe, and other canned and cured fish are all good and nutritious, and usually low in price. FISH BAKED IN MILK 1½ pounds haddock or other lean fish. Clean and wipe the fish with a damp cloth. Cut in pieces for serving and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and flour. Put the pieces of fish in a single layer in a shallow greased baking pan. Cover the fish with the onion and then sprinkle with the crushed crackers or bread crumbs.

MORE WORLD'S RECORDS THAN ALL 6 Gum-Dipped CORD PLIES UNDER THE TREAD GUM-DIPPED CORDS GUM-DIPPED CORDS The Firestone patented Gum-Dipping process transforms the cotton cords into a strong, tough, sinewy unit. Liquid rubber penetrates every cord and coats every fiber, guarding against internal friction and heat, greatly increasing the strength of the cord body, and giving longer tire life. TWO EXTRA GUM-DIPPED CORD PLIES UNDER THE TREAD This is a patented construction, and the two extra Gum-Dipped cord plies are so placed that you get 56% stronger bond between tread and cord body, and tests show 26% greater protection against punctures and blowouts. It sets a new standard for tire performance on high speed cars. NON-SKID TREAD Tough, live rubber specially compound ed for long, slow wear. Scientifically designed non-skid gives greater trac tion and safe, quiet performance. SUB-CONTRACTOR SUES TO SELL ODD FELLOWS BUILDING THEATERS SPORTS Construction Company Quits When $7000 Balance Is Not Paid Asking that trustees be appointed and that the site and incomplete structure of the new Odd Fellows Hall at Ninth and T streets be sold at auction, the Putnam Construction Company of this city this week instituted proceedings against the Odd Fellows Hall Association of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of the District of Columbia to collect an unpaid balance of $7,464.73. The construction company, a sub contractor, charges that according to a contract entered upon on December 16, 1931, it agreed to provide all materials and perform all the concrete foundation work on the building. The sum of $24,000 was to be paid to the company as the work progressed. Of this $18,832.50 has been paid to date. The total bill, including extra materials and labor, is $26,297, 23, making a deficit of more than $7,000. The Putnam Company ceased work on the building on July 29, when no payment was forthcoming from the order. Official Makes Statement William I. Lee, in an interview with a Tribune reporter said: "Officers of the fraternal organization feel that they are being duped by the contractors. An extra bill for $13,000 was presented to the organization after the third story of the building had been constructed. This extra amount was charged by a sub-contractor who claims to have done a large amount of necessary work outside of the contract, due to a cave-in which occurred during the digging of the foundation. The sub-contractor claims that the cave-in was due to an underground stream of water over which he had no control. "Officials of the order claim that they should have been notified of the additional expense at the time of the occurrence of the emergency. Instead, they say, they have met all of their obligations according to the terms of the contract, making each payment as it fell due, until the presentation of this bill for so large an amount outside of the contract. Now that they have paid much of the money due on the contract and with the building nearly completed, they feel that they are being duped by the contractors when they are asked to pay an additional $13,000. They had entered into a contract which stated a definite cost for the construction of their building. They had accepted this cost as within their ability to pay. They had the money to pay for it. They were entitled to immediate notice concerning any change in the agreement, they say."

HAVE HIM SELL THE TRIBUNE WASHINGTON GIRL WINNER IN ELKS' NATION'L CONTEST WASHINGTON GIRL WINNER IN ELKS' NATION'L CONTEST Miss Elvin M. Lee Awarded Second Prize, Georgia Girl Wins First (Special to The Tribune) (Special to The Tribune) ATLANTIC CITY, N.J.-The Elks' Educational Day, the seventh annual one, went over big here. Monday. The seventh annual National Oratorical Contest was held in the New Jersey Avenue School auditorium, which was packed. Miss Jean Hargrove, of Atlanta, Ga., won first place and $250 in cash, in one of the best contests yet held by the Elks. Miss Elvine D. Lee, of Washington, winner of the $1,000 scholarship at the second regional contest at the Howard Theatre on July 17, was one of the six contestants and was awarded $150 in cash. J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler, delivered the checks to the contestants. The other four were Charles D. Walker, of St. Louis, Ind.; Clarence Vaughn, of St. Louis, Mo.; William H. Walker, of Bridgesport, Conn.; and Otto Artie Dickerson, of Montgomery, Ala. Contestants Take III For the first time in the seven years one of the contestants took suddenly ill and was rushed to the hospital. It w as young Dickerson, of Alabama. This delayed the contest more than an hour and made it too late for the winner to speak at the local Columbia broadcasting station. However, the winner, Miss Jean Hargrove, delivered her oration over the radio at 8:45 Tuesday morning. Judge Wm. C. Hueston, of Washington, D.C., the national commissioner of education, presided at both sessions, Monday. Senator Hamilton F. Keane, of Newark, addressed the audience while the doctors were working with young Dickerson before they decided to send him to the hospital. He said that he was for every American citizen having an equal opportunity in this country. He was introduced by Isaac Nutter. Roscoe Conklin Simmons, of Chicago, delivered the principal address to the contestants. He was introduced by Grand Exalted Ruler W. Jason. His was a masterpiece on the various elements entering into the making of the Constitution of the United States and the persons participating therein. One outstanding statement of his was that George Washington was not a great man and no man who helped to make the Constitution and held slaves after its adoption could be a great man. He said that Jefferson was a great man because he freed his slaves after he wrote the Declaration of Independence, declaring that all men are created equal. The address of Miss Alva B. Maxey, of Atlanta, Ga., former winner of a $1,000 scholarship and a graduate of Oberlin College on that scholarship, was the feature of the morning session. Among the many fine things she said: "In the Southern States the Negro is overburdened with taxes without representation, and the Constitution to him is only a scrap of paper." She offered one remedy, the ballot, and urged Negroes to register and vote and endeavor to fill every phase of good citizenship. Hueston Sheds Tears In expressing her gratitude to the Elks for giving her this opportunity to go through college, touching were her words that hard-boiled Judge Hueston was completely overcome and left the platform crying. Thomas Higgins, of New York, vice commissioner, took over the gavel and carried on for about fifteen minutes, while the judge pulled himself together. Just as Miss Maxey finished, Judge Hueston said, "There is a living demonstration of the service this department is rendering," and broke o...n and left the stage. Attorney Higgins admonished the Negro to keep his feet on the ground and undaunted faith in God and our success is assured. Later on Attorney Higgins delivered the formal educational address on the subject, "Education, the Crowning Victory of Peace." Upon his return to the platform Judge Hueston made the statement that his department had supplied scholarships to 103 students, 47 of whom had graduated, with 16 finishing this year. This list appeared in the Tribune two weeks ago. His department has collected over one hundred thousand dollars at twenty cents a member, and that there is $25,000 in cash in banks. An interesting character introduced by Judge Hueston was Rice Porter, of Lexington, Ky. A horse clocker for the races. He is the only Negro in the United States Bureau Employee, Never Late During Her 29 Years Service, Retires Mrs. Mary E. Hunter, of 1109 New Hampshire avenue, northwest, has been at the Bureau of Standards continuously since its establishment in 1903, was retired on May 31 at the age of 67 years. Mrs. Hunter was employed in the capacity of laborer on janitorial work and is well known and respected by practically every employee at the bureau. During her twenty-nine years of service, she established an enviable record for punctuality; she was not tardy a single time. All who knew her intimately regret her passing out of the service. Mrs. Hunter was kindly remembered by her many friends in the bureau. ACTIVITIES CLOSE AT CAMP LICHTMAN AFTER FOUR WEEKS Camp Lightman, the boys' camp of the Twelfth Street Branch, Y.M.C.A. located in the Shenandoah National Forest, near Shedandoah, Va., closed its season Monday after four weeks of intensive activity. A large number of parents and friends visited the camp each Sunday. General surprise was expressed at the excellence of the camping facilities provided at Camp Lightman. The large bus bearing the last group of campers back to the city reached the Twelfth Street Branch Y.M.C.A. Monday evening at 7:30 p.m. When the bus swung into Twelfth street, the boys could be heard cheering and singing their camp song. There was a happy reunion of parents and sons, some of whom had never been parted before. The last week of the camp was marked by the completion of a cork lined ice house for the storage of the perishable food supply and a most interesting hiking trip to Point Lookout, conducted personally by John Hitt of the United States Forset Service. After witnessing a demonstration of forest fire fighting, the boys were all given Forestry buttons and made Junior Rangers, pledging themselves to the protection of the Forest preserves. The boys enrolled at the camp were as follow: Charles Allen, Henry Anderson, Robert Askins, Oliver Beckwith, Ralph Brooks, Clinton Bowie, John W. Carter, Ralph Carter, Clinton Bowie, Clinton T.

In fact no horse can run in Kentucky unless Rice Porter says that it is the horse labeled by that name. Another man holding an important position introduced was Charles Joell, proof-reader for the Double-Day-Page Publishing Company of New York. This company publishes the World magazine. E. H. Lawson, of Washington, D.C., secretary of the educational department, explained the distribution of the Elks' stamps. Many persons of prominence were on the platform at 'both of these sessions. Washington Tribune WASHINGTON, D.C., FRIDAY, AUGUST 26, 1932 Now is the time to Book You FALL D Now is the Time to Book Your MURR CASI Y.W.C.A. CARRIES ON DESPITE OLD MAN DEPRESSION Phyllis Wheatley Branch Carries Own In Modern Building "During those days of economic distress, The Phyllis Wheatley Y. W.C.A. is holding its own", declared Mrs. Mary F. Thompson, membership secretary, in an interview recently. She related that in many instances the Y.W.C.A. has gone out of its way to participate in certain welfare work which ordinarily is considered the task of social workers and welfare agencies. "There is an influx of unemployed colored people into the city at present. Many of them applying for work at the Federal Employment agency cannot write their names legibly." Mrs. Thompson affirmed. "To offset this handicap," she continued, "we have one of our own girls give part of her time gratis to help these colored people fill out application blanks for work." The young lady giving such service is Miss Irene Ruff, connected with the Girl's Department of the Y.W.C.A. Miss Ruff asserts that some people who apply for work can not write their names at all to say nothing of writing legibly. "So you see," continued Mrs. Thompson, "that the Y.W.C.A. is kept busy both outside and within. We have many modest and deserving young women within our own confines who are unable to secure the type of work for which they are best qualified." Mrs. Thompson mentioned the fact that Phyllis Wheatley Y.W.C.A. is independent of the local white Y.W.C.A., as a matter of fact a bit older. It originally started at 409 T street as a Center in very small quarters. This was before the war. After the war, she said, plans were changed and a new building was constructed containing 45 rooms for sleeping, a rest room for transients, a beauty parlor, and cafeteria. The Institution carries an enrolment of 800 members for the year. It is located on the prominent corner of Rhode Island avenue and Ninth street.

Appointed Member Advisory Council Legion Auxiliary Mrs. Emma J. Anderson, 1803 Oregon avenue, northwest, Past Department Historian, American Legion Auxiliary, Department District of Columbia, has been appointed by the Department President, Mrs. Egbert E.

She was the first colored member to be elected to an elective office of the American Legion Auxiliary in 1931. PLANS LAID FOR COOPERATIVE COAL BUYING IN. D.C. Y. N. C. L.'s New Buying Club Starts Drive Active work on the new Buying Club Plan, sponsored by the Washington Council of the Young Negroes Cooperative League was begun at a meeting of the organization Thursday night at the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School. The club's plan is to have sufficient number of householders to buy their winter coal through the club to enable the buying committee to purchase on contract at wholesale prices. The consumer will pay the existing retail prices for his coal when it is delivered. At the end of the season, the difference between the wholesale price, and retail price will be used for the next season's supply or for whatever purpose the members of the coal club designate. With the large number of coal consumers in this city, it is very likely that such a plan would be used to a definite advantage, the League officials say. At the same meeting the Council voted to select New York City as the place for its October conference instead of Cleveland, O. as had been previously planned. An appropriation of $10 was sent to the National Office for educational purposes. John W. Baddy, the new director of education, is planning great things in this line of work. A plan for furthering the cooperative movement among Negroes in Washington was also mapped out. The next meeting of the council will be held Thursday, September 1, in Room 216 of the Garnet-Patterson Building.

Kenney Parham, year-old boy of the 400 block of V street, northwest, was knocked down by an automobile near his home Saturday. The boy was taken to Freedmen's Hospital where X-ray photographs were to be taken to determine whether he was suffering with a fractured skull. The machine which struck him was operated by Raymond Banks, of the 2220 block of Second street, according to police. A 55-year-old man, Junius Haley, of Norfolk, Va., received a severely crushed chest when an automobile ran down a gangplank and passed over him. Police say, he fell while in front of the car unloading it from a boat at the wharves. He was taken to Providence Hospital where physicians announced his condition as serious. John Davis, 24, of the 100 block of I street, northwest, had his foot crushed when hit by a street car while working on the tracks along Mount Pleasant street, between Irving and Kenyon streets. He was treated at Freedmen's Hospital. Car Skids Injuring Trio Three men received injuries when the automobile in which they were riding skidded over 150 feet to crash into parked cars at Georgia avenue and Kenyon street, early Monday. The men were driving south on the avenue when the crash occurred. All were taken to Freedmen's Hospital for treatment.

He was brought to Freedmen's Hospital for treatment. TENN. DEMOCRATS ACCEPT NEGROES' PRIMARY VOTE State Board Over-rules Protest of Candidate Who Objected The Tennessee State primary board voted, Wednesday, to declare legal the nomination of Hill McAlister, former State treasurer, as the Democratic candidate for governor of the State. The board voted, 31 to 7, to dismiss a contest initiated by Lewis Pope, who ran behind McAllister by nearly 10,000 votes in the primary. Pope had charged that Negroes had voted in large numbers in Nashville and Memphis. He declared himself to be the candidate of the "white Democrats." Pope's attitude and charges were responsible for tense feeling in many sections of the State. Larger numbers of Negroes had been urged to qualify as voters in the State, and the Negro organization had lined up with McAllister. The action of the State Democratic primary board in accepting the Negro vote in the Democratic primary is a departure and a new deal in Southern politics. Woman Reports That Man Threatened Her Life Charles Jackson, 30, is being hunted by police of No. 2 Precinct on a charge of assault with a dangerous weapon. Martha Loving, of 1229 $6\frac{1}{2}$ street, northwest, complained that Jackson had threatened her with a knife and other dangerous weapons during the past week. Jackson is about 5 feet 11 inches in height, 160 pounds, and dark brown color. When last seen he was wearing gray pants and a white shirt, with no hat or coat. TECHNICAL GROUP TO HONOR H.U.

MASKED MEN BEAT NEGRO WORKERS OXFORD, Miss, (CNS)—A band of masked white men attacked and boat a group c. colored laborers of the highway construction now working between West Point and Starksville, Thursday night. None of the Negroes were seriously hurt save one, "Sonny" Tarkington, who was shot when he attempted to defend himself from the blows of the hoodlums. When news of the attacks reached Starksville excitement ran high and authorities of the State Highway Commission immediately started an investigation as to the identity of the masked men. Private contractors who emply the men believe that the beating was an attempt to intimidate the colored men so that they will quit their jobs so that white men may be employed. The men are reported to have received several warnings to that effect, but this is the first open violence against the Negro workers in this section. None of the men were employed by the State Highway Commission. Grandniece of Booker T. Washington Weds TUSKEEGE INSTITUTE, Ala. —Charlotte Camille Perry, grandniece of Booker T. Washington, was quietly married to Paul Franklin Webster, of Kansas City, Mo. Wednesday, at the home of the bride's grandmother, Mrs. John H. Washington. The bride was radiant in a gown of flesh point de spirit and wore her grandmother's wedding bracelets. Her bouquet was of pink tea roses, lilies of the valley and baby breath. Her grandmother, who wore a black lace gown, stood with her. Edythe Mae Johnson, cousin of the bride, played for the ceremony. She was dressed in pink point de spirit. Rev. John W. Whittaker performed the ceremony He is the former chaplain of Tuskeege Institute and a friend of the late John Washington, the bride's grandfather.

The bride is a graduate of Fisk University, class of 1932, and a member of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority SECOND SECTION SOME GOSSIP THAT— "I ONLY HEARD" By And Rivers And the lions and the lams lay down together at Highland Beach. The notables all attend a Saturday night get-together at Ware's Hotel. The "beach" has evidently made its peace with Ware. And did it look like old times? The Syphaxes, Cliffords, McGuires, Wilkinson, Francis, Cooks, Henderson, Douglasses, Millers, Tolsons, Simmons, Scurlocks, Cornishes, Nixons, Lucases, and many other important Washington families were represented. And examine these "maiden names": Nora Porter, Thelma White, Consuella Johnson. They were familiar faces to many of those present. The names have changed, however, but, yes, siree, there were many familiar scenes at the get-together. And speaking of familiar scenes at Highland Beach, the Hartwell Cooks may be seen regularly on the Lucas' tennis court. Johnnie Wilkinson holds out there also. The juvenile aspirants include Jimmie, Murdock, Betty, "Useless", "Moe", and others, while Peggy brings up the infant department. And don't the strollers look cute? Clint and Genevieve are walking "the same old paths." Barrington Guy is recuperating, and along with Dr. Summer Wormley, is thrilling the hearts of the music-loving matron dames. "Fats" Guy and Bobbie Syphax chirp occasionally. And on the whole, the beach sonesters are much too bad. Mrs. Ida Reid reclines at her cottage, spending the remainder of the season, recovering from injuries sustained in an automobile accident earlier this summer. Dr. Ulysses Wharton and family, down for a stay, won't "commute" this year. And the doctor is looking himself again. And all must bridge. Dr. Marie Lucas and "Sue" gave a pre-dance party, Saturday evening. Mrs Cornish and Mrs. Murray were prize winners. Mrs. Lewis demonstrated the "goulash" deal, making a "slam," and an enjoyable time was had. Now, who wouldn't blame the "beach folks" for wanting their "exclusive society" - with bridge, dancing, tennis, swimming, and the "weenie roasting" on the beach? And with those who belong: But before leaving bay regions, let's visit a boat resting near the shore. Still, we'd better not. It's much too dangerous. Then, too, Fred Pelham has already waded to the shore, slightly affected by the salt water and salt air, looking for "Brick" Beckley and the erstwhile "Benedict" crowd. Or was he dodging them? Fred greeted Mrs. Perry Howard in a "feeling" way, It was quite "touching." And was it funny? And the salt air. And those who write in, will say we must know where our gossip comes from—must have names, addresses and phone numbers. We write what we know—true gossip. We want to "verify" your gossip. For instance, this letter may have been written by Elizabeth Mae Carroll, Nancy Carroll, or "Bill" Smallwood. Who knows? We don't. But anyhow we'll let you read it, for what it's worth. Now isn't that the dirt? "Washington, D.C. "Dear Mr. Rivers: "I am a weekly reader of your column and find your idle chatter really spicy and enjoyable. In reading a column by one Malcolm Fulcher, in last week's Afro, I read about some Wm. Smallwood being engaged to Duke Ellington's sister. Would you tell a rather perturbed young lady whether or no he is the Wm. Smallwood who writes that society column in the D. C. papers? "Also the writer didn't say who she was, but we can easily see it's Duke's sister. This would make good and spicy news for you, and at the same time, set or start my heart at one particular place. Did he really go to Chicago with her? Don't think me—well—strange. But I, and a few others I know of, are rather interested in that young man-about-town, and we would like to know all about him. "Here's my name, but minus my address. If you want that, say so and you'll get it. But let us know something. "Do you know whether or not the Clarence Wesley that columnist also mentions as 'socking that fellow over the band leader's sister' the D.C. Wesley, and if he socked Smallwood over Ruth Ellington?" "Truly yours, Elizabeth Mae Carroll. And so, do tell!" "Shep" Allen is in town. He says that the Howard Theatre will open September 10. "Shep" says that "Cab" Calloway will open the fall season, followed by the Mills Brothers. And plenty more. And jumping back to earth—or maybe falling—we venture into the "common place" to ask what "Peg Leg" Bates is going to do now that he is minus his "personal man." Raymond is going for him- (Continued on page 11)
