Many of you have probably heard his programs formerly over WJSV and now on every Thursday at four-thirty p.m. Monty, Make, and Skippy are regular broadcasters over Station WOL. Monty (like your scribe, Hey, Hey) are concrete illustrations of the old saying "Good things come in small packages." He is a small chap slightly over five feet and he really eroes a mean tenor. His only disillusion probably lies in th fact that he is often mistaken for me and vice versa. Former 70-yd. District Playground Track Champion, he says he is too old to run now. Now all you ladies that are getting hot and bothered, kindly step in the rear. Here's bad news. Monty's Juliet is one of the most typical examples of Why Husbands Leave their Faithless Wives. She's got what it takes. Tune in on Monty this Thursday, September 15th, at 4:30 p.m. WONDER IF ITS TRUE THAT The Union Wesley A.M.E. Church is planning to sponsor a boys and girls church B. B. League this winter. All the requirements you men must have to win a fair lady is a fair countenance (which most of us were not blessed with) three current-style suits and an ever so smooth line of sentimental chatter, for the ladies, a Garbo air of mystery, Venus chassis, and a sporting attitude (Oh, my dear, how exacting these modern men are). Aren't we all? The owners of the sedans that were supposed to take the 12th Street "\" track team to that' New York track meet backed out at the last moment for fear of the recent epidemic of auto accidents. Calvin Pendleton, the former ball room fan has reformed because a certain young lady disapproved of his regular attendance thence—even the most faithful husband has "another burden" to arouse his finer emotions—that Cahallow will break all attendance records at the opening of the renovated vaudeville house on Saturday—also that he and his boys will play for a "hop" here before his engagement ends in Washington.—Prosperity is around the corner. Whose Corner? Address all communications to Alvin A. Webb, care Washington Tribune, 920 A street, N.W. Tabernacle Baptist "And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new." "A New Order and How It May Be Obtained," was the text of Rev. Bradshaw's sermon on last Sunday morning. He declared that before a new order can be established the old order must be discarded or changed. Both the choir and the pastor have returned from their vacations determined to lend inspiration to the services the balance of the year. The children are eagerly awaiting the reopening of the Children's Church. The services were stopped during the pastor's vacation but will continue now beginning with next Sunday. The children are very enthusiastic for the services to begin. Services At Lincoln Temple At the services of Lincoln Congregational Temple Sunday morning, Rev. R. W. Brooks will speak from the theme, "The Wise and Foolish Builders." Special musical selections will be rendered. The Holy Communion will be observed at the morning service. The Young People's C.E.F. Society will present a special program of song and discussion at 7 p.m. The subject to be discussed is "Does God Really Care?" The regular mid-week prayer service will be omitted on Thursday evening, but instead, the pastor and members join with the Zion Baptist Church in their anniversary service. The public is cordially invited to share those ser Masons To Hear Sermon The National Scottish Rite Masons will have a sermon preached to them at the Contee A. M. E. Zion Church, Division avenue and Karl place, northeast, Sunday. Rev. G. Oliver Wing, pastor of the St Paul A. M. E. Church, will deliver the message. All Masons are expected to be present. 41st DISTRICT CONFERENCE OF M.E. CHURCH Rev. R. F. Coates Holds His 6th Conference Of This District at Emory Grove The forty-first session of the District Conference, Epworth League and Church School Convention of the Washington District, Washington Conference, Methodist Episcopal Church convened in Emory Grove M.E. Church Emory Grove, Md., Tuesday, August 30, 1932, Rev R. F. Coates, District Superintendent. Tuesday evening the anniversary of the Epworth League was held, the president, Mrs. Cory E. Doy, presiding. The purpose of the Epworth League in the local church was very beautifully and clearly given from an ideal viewpoint of each department. Excellent music was rendered by the Choral Society of Ebenezer M. E. Church, Washington, D.C. This being Rev. R. F. Coates' sixth and last District Conference, a large number of pastors and delegates were present at the organization of the conference. The Holy Communion was administered by Rev. Coates assisted by all the pastors present. The Memorial Services in memory of the three ministers and the District organist who passed away during the year were conducted by Rev. C. A. Johnson and committee. Welcome addresses were extended on the part of the church, the community, and the citizens and responses given by Rev. W. A. English and Mrs. Fannie D. Tyler. The program for this conference was conducted in an unusual form A "Seminar" was conducted by Miss H. H. Beason assisted by Miss Martha Henon using the seven-fold program. A ministry, seven-fold activities and seven-large poster with the seven-fold com-fold response was used. In the Epworth League and Church School session the Childhood Community, the importance and necessity of the dedication of the child to God was portrayed in a practical and intellectual manner by Miss Rosetta Berry of Mt. Zion, The Youth Community and Loyalty of Youth was urged and suggestions given by Mr. James L. Cannon of Asbury. Thursday morning Rev, R. M. Williams, pastor of Asbury Church, Washington, D.C., delivered the address on "World Community and Stewardship" in which he explained and impressed the NINE—cmfwpj cmstewardship of live, service and possessions, Deaconess Florence Gaither's address on "Adult Community—Co-operation and Transient Community—Neighborliness" gave a very vivid picture of the adult responsibility to the church and the community. Friday morning Rev. J. D. Brown, pastor of Mount Zion, Washington, D.C., in his address "Unchurched Community and Evangelism" showed the importance of the year round interest of the church in all the couple. Rev. W. A. English in his address "Law Enforcement" pointed out the duty of Christians in all the communities to enforce law and order in every respect and to loyally support the Eighteenth Amendment. The seminar was voted, although a new feature, it was highly entertaining and instructive. The anniversary of the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society, Thursday afternoon and the Pageant "Kindred Spirit of Nations" and the Woman's Home Missionary Society, Friday, and the playlet "This Ye Ought to Have Done" were both entertaining and helpful in showing the work of the societies. Other interesting and unique features of the conference were the addresses on "1932 General Conference Legislation" by Mrs. Fannie D. Tyler; "Bird's Eye View of the General Conference" by Rev. R. M. Williams and "High Points of the General Conference" by Rev. R. F. Coates. Emory Grove is the summer home of Rev. W. A. C. Hughes, secretary of home missions and church extension so the conference was favored with his presence a large part of the time and enjoyed his masterful address on "Home Missions." Again on Saturday morning he talked on some important phases of his work. He extended to the conference the hospitality of his home and his spacious ground for the recreational period. Dr Gordon Barnes represented the Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals. The layman's hour presided over by Lorenzo Berry was exceedingly interesting on account of the addresses delivered by Rev. Monroe, Alvin Shepard, and Alphonso Lee. The children's and young people's hour under the direction of J. Arthur Brown and Mrs. Pearl D. Smallwood was a great treat. Rev. Coates preached at 11 a.m. Sunday morning from Gen. 3-22, 23 and lifted the hearts of his listeners to higher ideals of Christian life. Laytonsville, Md., choir rendered the music. At 3 a.m. P. Rev. P. G. Myers paid a glowing tribute to the brotherly spirit of the six years of service rendered by Rev. Coates Then Rev. J. D. Brown, pastor of Mount Zion M. E. Church made clear to all the true ideals of life from the subject "Undernourished Life" using St. John 6:35 as a text. Mount Zion Choir rendered their choice music. ```markdown ``` NEGRO FAMILY STATISTICS FOR MASSACHUSETTS (CNS)—The Bureau of the Census has just announced that there are 12,657 Negro families in the State of Massachusetts; of which 3,453 are owner families and 8,864 tenant families.

(only game scheduled). By "FLASH" ROBESON The Hillsdale A. C., the sensation of the Tri-State League, winners of fifteen straight games before losing, clinched second place by handing the DePriest A. C., a 7-5 defeat in ten innings, Sunday. Peek Banks, the grand old man of sand lot baseball caught one of the best games of his career. His throwing was good, his receiving was the best seen for many a day, and his judgment of the opposing batsmen was indeed very clever. "Smoks" Levi pitched a remarkable game, and if his team mates had not been so generous the score would have been very small. John "Reds" Haywood played a brilliant game on first base, saving the 'Dale fielders several errors, and recovering their bad throws. Robert Green, out after a month's layoff, played a fine game at short, while "Runt" White led the 'Dales with the stick. "Slim" Barnes "Slim" Barnes pitched a clever game and if his club members could have handled the ball without miscues the tale might have been different, as he had the 'Dale batters whiffing the ozone fifteen times, making all of them look bad going after his wide curves, aside from Barnes' twirling the only other bright spot in the DePriest men's playing was the fielding of "Sticks" Mayorite. Huntsville Wins Huntsville and White Sox, in the only other game scheduled in the league, ended with the former victors after ten innings of exciting play by the score, 7-6. T. Moore, of the Virginia lads, put up one of the best games seen on the Marylanders 'diamond this season in short, while E. Lewis pitched a good game and deserved a better fate. Don Hamilton, on second, and Young Smarts in center field, proved the fielding stars for the winners, while Maynard starred at the bat.

Second Finest and the Only Collected Estate NEWS OF THE SPORT WORLD BLUE SOX LOSE 2 DURING WEEK BLUE SOX LOSE 2 DURING WEEK Quicksteps, Woodburn, Win Over Washingtonians, 8-7, 8-2 One big inning, the second, was enough to enable the Woodburn Eagles to gain an 8-2 verdict over the Washington Blue Sox, Labor Day. A slight attack of wildits on Westfield, Sox moundsman, causing the diminutive twirler to issue three free tickets to the initial sack coined with three one-basers, accounted for the Eagle uprising. In the nightcap, cut short by darkness, fate turned her tables in the Blue Sox direction and the Washington cohorts, led by Rookie and Botts, were leading their Lamdond rivals, 9-2, when darkness settled over the field, before four and one-half frames of play could be completed. However the aliens will have an opportunity to seek sweet revenge when the two aggregations lock horns, Sunday. This time it was left to the D. C. lads to hang up five markers in a single inning and as all courteous visitors do, the Sox gladiators obliged in the third session and when the dust had cleared away they had crossed the counting block five times. But all this trouble was to no avail as the aforementioned darkness took charge and proceeded to stop hostilities. Grinage with four one-basers in four trips to the plate carried off baton honors in the opener. Rookie upheld the Blue Sox banners in the nightcap with two safeties in as many attempts. After performing in big league style for seven frames the Blue Sox nine went completely to pieces, to fall before the onslaught of the highly-touted Virginia Quicksteps, 8-7, Sunday, at Arlington. Sam Westfield, after pitching brilliantly for six cantos was absolutely let down by his mates to allow eight markers trickle across the plate. The uprisings were divided equally in the fifth and eighth frames, each harvesting a quartet of runs. Cooper and Rookie cavorted around the keystone and center field patch respectively, in beautiful style. # EAGLES ab h r e Geter,1b. 4 1 1 2 Rook,iec. 4 1 1 2 Valencienla. 4 1 1 2 Bottle,3b. 2 0 0 0 Wood,If. 2 1 0 0 Wieldfield,p. 4 1 0 0 Striping,is. 3 1 0 1 Palmer,ms. 2 0 0 1 Totals. 30 6 2 6 Washington 2 0 0 0 0 0 2 Woodburn 0 5 0 0 0 0 3 8 Strike out-By Westfield, 8; by Chishall, 6.

SPORTS REVIEW By "BIP" BROOKS Up in "God's Country" (New England) is Camp Atwater—nested in green hills, 'neath blue skies, beside a crystal lake. Here Rev. DeBerry carries on a part of his social extension work for the benefit of young Negroes of America. To Camp Atwater come the boys in July and the girls in August. Here they find modern conveniences in a setting of primeval beauty—wholesome, healthful surroundings. The camp has excellent equipment, competent instructors—it does a great work. Washnigtonians know something of the directors of activities at this camp. A season ago this work was in charge of "Johnnie" Burr, athletic director at Howard University. This season "Beanie" Webb was the director. The director supervised the entire activity program, while special instructors took charge of each individual activity. Boys and girls should get much from Camp Atwater—contacts, health and instruction that will carry over into later years. Parents should give their children the benefit of camp life. I have been asked how I thought our two camps near Washington, compared with Camp Atwater. I would say favorably. Camp Lichtman is an ideal camp for boys, and may develop into America's finest. It has the environment and setting. It is admirably equipped. With classes of instruction, patterned along the lines of those in leading camps, Lichtman will be nearly complete. Of course it must have qualified instructors and must complete the building of its recreation field. Still, at one year old, Camp Lichtman is "some baby." Camp Clarissa Scott needs to do more work to be rated as an "A No.1" camp. At present its equipment is limited. Its instruction is theoretically well-founded, but, in my opinion, it is limited in scope. However, the many points in favor of Camp Clarissa Scott outweigh the defects. The nearness of the camp to Washington and Baltimore, the comparative safety, and the opportunities for social contacts, are considered desirable by many parents. Washingtonians should study camp life. They should find out what real camps should be like, and they should prepare Camps Lichtman and Clarissa Scott accordingly. Do it now! Don't wait till next summer. We owe it to our own Washington; especially our boys and girls, the best of everything. Howard is facing another disaster—or series of disasters on the gridridion—unless somebody gets busy. Few people realize what Howard is really up against. Not only this year, but every year. Every team on Howard's schedule is working like everything, "pointing" for the big game with Howard. These teams will be ready. What about Howard? They're in for several lickings, as I have said before, unless somebody does something. The days when Howard went here and there rolling up big scores and tumbling over opposition seem to have passed. There are several reasons why Howard itself has become a "push-over." These reasons will be taken up in succeeding issues. However, this column would like to see Howard either turn out a football team worthy to represent it, or cut out the sport to save the pride of old Howardites. Here's hoping Howard takes this football season seriously and puts the sport on a business-like basis. Chocolate Wins K. O. NEW YORK—Kid Chocolate, of Cuba, knocked out Frankie Marchese, whites, of New York, in the fourth round here Thursday night. LeDROIT TIGERS DEFEATED TWICE LeDROIT TIGERS DEFEATED TWICE nacostia Wins Double Bill In Dope Upsetting Labor Day Contests The Anacostia A. C. upset the dope by winning a double header over the LeDroit Tigers, Labor Day, at the Walker Stadium, by the scores of 4-2 and 4-3. The Anacostia team has a record of five consecutive victories to their credit. In the first game Bill Reed held the Tigers to four hits while he struck out five. Wheeler, for the Tigers, struck out 14 batters, but allowed 9 hits. Ellis, Anacostia second sacker, led with the willow by making three hits in four attempts. In the second game Beverly and Jeffries opposed each other on the mound. The former's wildness got him into several difficult situations, but with his team giving him good support he came through. In the ninth, with the score tied at 2-all, and two out, A. Garrison was walked, Goodloe tripled to right, scoring A. Garrison and H. Garrison bunted safely to score Goodloe. The Tigers scored one run in their half of the ninth with two out after Ford received a free pass and came home on a triple by Smith. The Anacostia nine will meet the D. C. Tigers, Sunday, on the former's diamond. On Surday, the Anacostia team won a 4-1 decision over the Maryland Stars. Stewart allowed the Maryland lads only two hits and fanned 17. Morning Star Lodge Elks Given Double Dose Beaten Manager Bird took his ball playing Morning Star Lodge of Elks across the bridge, Labor Day, only to be twice defeated by the Virginia Quick Steps. The clumsy infielding of the visitors partly account for the double beating by the home team. Lee and Briscoe pitched well for the Elks' nine. Bailey pitching the opening for the Quick Steps was never in serious trouble, easily winning 9-4. In the night-cap, big John Boswell on the mound and his equally fleshy brother behind the plate proved too great a combination for the combined strength of the weak nine of Elkdom, thus ending the closing tilt with a score of 11 to 1. The Elks nine will travel to Ocequan on Sunday to play the Work House team a double header. Crawfords Wins Three Out Of Four In Title Series PITTSBURGH, Pa.—The Pittsburgh Crawfords have won three out of fur game splayed with the Monroe, La., nine here this week in a world series contest.

THE SPIKED SHOE THE SPIKED SHOE By THE OBSERVER The Kansas City Monarchs have won 42 straight ball games on a barnstorming tour. "Big" Bert Johnson, freshman right fielder for the Washington Pilots, has made quite a record as a slugger in his first year as a regular. He is led by his team mate, George "Mauling Mule" Suttles. Little Willie O'Bryant has established himself as one of the speediest men on the paths. Burnelle Hays, Pilot, change of pace artist, has turned in some nifty pitching stunts for his team recently. The Stroudsburg, Pa. team, a fast white professional nine, has defeated some of the best clubs in baseball this year. Among some of those defeated were the Harrisburg Giants, Chicago White Sox, Scranton and other clubs of high calibre. John Henry Lloyd, veteran pastimer, keeps in condition by playing with Otto Briggs' Bacharachs. Cum Posey, of the Homestead Grays, has picked up a clever young infielder by the name of Terry. Ted Trent, elongated curve ball pitcher, has lost only three games to white clubs during his entire pitching career. "Long" Tom Richardson has done some fine pitching for the Pilots this year. Max Eggleston is one of the classiest backstops in the game.

Coach Westmoreland, for many years mentor of the strong aggregations turned out at the Orange and Blue institution, will be on hand at this time and take charge immediately. With several of last year's team as a nucleus, and many of the class team outstandees, with the addition of several promising players from the Shaw, Randall and Francis Junior High Schools, the probabilities for a very strong group of players looms bright for Old Teech. Assistant Coach Jerry Adams and Benjamin Washington will no doubt begin seasoning the recruits for the more strenuous work of Coach Westmoreland who will be home from Massachusetts in time to assume full charge of the opening date. The very full schedule of games for the Orange and Blue boys this year will require immediate conditioning of a team to be placed on the field within three weeks, nine games having been arranged by the schedule makers of the school. Uniforms will be given out at once to those reporting and making the best progress in practice.

White Woman Beaten And Arrested for Aiding Unemployed Negroes NEW YORK (CNS)—Attempts to aid unemployed Negroes of this city to secure work and relief through the city relief agencies, resulted, last week, in the arrest of Mrs. Eleanor Henderson, white, 30-year-old wife of an instructor of economics at Columbia University, and Samuel Brown, 25-year-old unemployed colored man. Both were charged with being disorderly and convicted in the Harlem court last Tuesday. Mrs. Henderson is a frail woman, weighing only 85 pounds, who told Magistrate Aurelie that she was a member of the Unemployed Council of Upper Harlem. With Brown and several others, Mrs. Henderson called at the Home Relief Bureau and asked to have a conference with the supervisor of the bureau. An interview with two of the delegates was promised, but a commotion started when Brown tried to push past Officer George Green. Mrs. Henderson said she had led the group to the bureau because she wanted to see that they obtained justice. She showed Magistrate Aurelio a cut and bruised left elbow received during the disturbance, she said, when she attempted to restrain Green "from killing Brown with an iron bar." Brown appeared in court with a patch over his left eye. He told the magistrate the patrolman had struck him with the iron bar. Magistrate Aurelio sentenced the two convicted persons last Friday. Brown was given a sentence of six months and Mrs. Henderson one of ten days. When the unequal sentences were announced a crowd of 30 spectators spectators booed the decision and sang the Communist Internationale. Two of the crowd were arrested, one of them a 19-year-old girl. Donald Henderson, the white woman's husband, declared that Aureliel had shown marked color prejudice in not giving both his wife and Brown equal sentences. Mrs. Henderson declared that the excuse that Brown was given the longer sentence because of a previous disorderly conduct charge, was a pretty poor one, inasmuch as she had also been convicted on a similar charge arising out of previous attempts to get justice for Negro unemployed. Gloomy Dean Sees Negro's Only Hope in Back To Farm Movement GAY HEAD, Mass., (CNS)—GORDON B. Hancock, dean of Virginia Union College in Richmond, VA. painted a gloomy picture here last week of the ultimate future of the Negro race in this country. The occasion was an informal conference on Negro social welfare sponsored by Dr. Z. T. Hubert, field secretary of the Association for the advancement of Negro Country Life. Both white and colored leaders entered into the discussions which lasted three days. Declaring that "economic competition plus color prejudice will eventually force the Negro to the wall," Dean Hancock went on to state: "Unemployment will in all probability be permanent in view of the industrialization of the country. The color question will force the Negro to carry the greater burden. Some rural programs will give him a great possibility he cannot have otherwise. The question then reverts to the South, where ultimate adjustment must be made. The Negro farm is the ultimate haven of the race." Other speakers at the conference included Charles S. Johnson, of Fsk University; Bishop William Thirkield, George A. Arthur, of the Rosenwald Foundation; and Arthur Schomburg. One of those extending greetings to the conference was former President Calvin Coolidge. Mr. Coolidge voiced deep interest in the effort to devise a plan for aiding unemployed Negroes.

It is of utmost im- Portance to note that the Socials ry at its convention in Milwau- Kee excluded: social equality from its platform. ‘The Communist Par- ty in nominating James W. Ford, a Negro, for Vice-President symbol- ized. the Communist-position on the Negro question. “We. stand un- <equivocally for full political, eco- nomic, and social equality,’ ’said C. A.’ Hsthaway, chairman’ of the National Communist Campaign Committee.) Besides being lynched, Negroes in-the United States are the vic- tims uf discrimination, . political, economical. and social, Here are @ few of the facts bearing on the dis- crimination and segregation prac- tices of the white ruling class. Political: “Rights” In at least ten Southern States Negroes are completely disfran- chised—denied the right to vote. According to U. S. census figures for 1930, nearly two-thirds of the Negroes of voting age are disfran- chised. The total Negro voting population in the country is 6,532,- 000, or-about 9 per cent of the general population. But when di- minished by disfranchisement, it amounts to only 3 per cent of the voting population. ‘There are many ways by which the white rulers disfranchise the Negros, especially the impover- ished masses of Negro workers and farmers. The leading ones in force in Southern States are: ‘1, literary tests; 2, property regulations and qualifications (in Alabama one must own 40 acres of land or $300 worth of taxable property before he may vote); 3, poll and other taxes; 4, requirement of regular employment; 5, requirement of “good reputation”; 6, grandfather clause; 7, requiring an understand- ing of he Constitution of the Unit- ed States and ability to explain its sections, But -even, more important in keeping the Negro away from the polls ate ths. regulations, surround. ing the “white primary.”. Negroes are hardly ever allowed to vote in. these primaries. Even after the U. S. Supreme Court decision in the Texas pri- mary: case, hailed by the N.AA. GP. as a great victory, when Ne- groes attempted to vote in the Democratic primary on July 23, they were barred from the polls in many places: In addition to. these severe re- sttictions. guaranteed to keep Ne- groes away from the polls, the white overlords are’ itt the habit ‘of posting notices warning Negroes that if they show up. at the elec- tion places, they will be marked. = The Shop of Personal Service” | USE PHILIP A.

NORTH 9674 men, facing, in. many cases, a lynch mob, Negroes who haye attemptec to exercise their theoretical, “con: stifutional rights” have been. sho! down in cold blood. Economic Diserimination Employers show no regard~for Negro workers. The latter suffer from a double exploitation because of their color. The general rule of the employers is that the Negro is last to be hired and first to be fired. ‘The most recent report of :diserim- ination against the Negroes is from the big Hoover Dam govern- ment construction job in Arizona, where Negroes are barred hy the contracting” firms, Contracts for other public works by city and State governments in the South have specified ..that- only. white workers are to ‘be used, or a lim- ited number ‘of Negro workers. specially duting the unemploy- ment. crisis, Negro workers look- ing for jobs are up against the fact-that whites are taken on first. ‘And, in many cases, according to the detailed reports of the National Urban League, the Negro worker will be fired and ‘a. white worker hired to take his place. For ex- ample, department. stores. in Co- lumbus, Ohio, have displaced Ne- gto porters with whites. Asa re- sult of such practices, the percen- tage’ of unemployed: Negroes is, in many cities, from four’ to six times that of white workers, ‘In Louis- ville, Ky., 15 per cent of the popu- lation are Negroes; yet Negroes comprise 50 per cent of the unem- ployed. ‘And_in the securing of unem- ployment “relief”, such as it is, the Negro in many places. comes last, ig at all. H. H. Lure, charman of the unemployment sub-commttee of the American Association of So- cial Workers, reports that Negroes have been excluded from the relief roils of some Southern cities, not- ably Dallas and Houston. In some cities, they were simply not noti- fied of the relief registration dates. Where the Negro does land a job, it is ‘usually of an unskilled, menial kind. The discrimination against them in this respect is al- most universal. Where Negroes are employed in industry, as for example in the Chicago stockyards, they usually do the roughest, dirti- est work, receiving for it less pay. than whites. Union Discrimination Unions as well as employers dis- criminate against Negroes. Elev- en international unions, affiliated with the A, F. of L., and 18 other unions, including the four railroad brotherhoods, deny membership to Negro workers either through pro- visions in their constitution. or by their rituals.

In» South Carolina, in 1928, total expenditure per pupil enrolled in the school was $60.25 ‘in the white schools, and $7.65 in the Negro schools. ‘As is well known, there is com- plete segregation of Negroes all ‘through the Southern cities and towns as. well as in many non- Southern cities such as St. Louis, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Cleve- land. Rents in the Negro ghettos are almost always higher than in the white areas and general hous- ing conditions are worse. The death rate among the Negroes, partly as the result of the conges- tion in these districts, is much higher than for whites. Segregation of Negroes is com- mon in all parts of the country.

In fect, when those who rent and those who are inadequate ly housed are deducted, the above figures afford excellent support for the estimate that, roughly, only one-third of the population own acceptable homes. Cost of Houses The average cost of one-family dwellings in this country is ap- proximately $6,000, Under usual circumstances the amount can be safely spent in the purchase of a home should not be more than two and one-half times the gross an- nual income of the prospective purchaser, Yet one-third of the American’ families have gross an- nual incomes: not exceeding $1200, one-third have gross annual in- comes between $1200 and $2000 and one-thrid have gross annual incomes exceeding $2000. Hence, homes of an acceptable type are at present too expensive for two- thirds of the population. This situation is due largely to the waste in residential construc- tion, ‘The sources of waste in resi- dential construction can be eradi- cated through the creation of a federal home banking system that woll probide adequate, low cost finance upon such terms that will make it possible for the prospective home owners to meet their obliga- tions readily and through the ade- quate organization of the home cate of affiliated corporations in cate of affiliated corporations in the form. ofa holding company that would be largely the result of. vertical integration and would efficiently employ mass. construe- tion, This would mean, among oth- er things, the purchase of land for construction purposes. in | large quantities but in response to. the true demand and at the ee tyoe the control of the Sources of ma- terials, the mass fabrication in factories of the various construe- tion units from these materials, the assembling of these units into the finished products, and the sale by the same crpanisesian.

Hurley, Secretary of War, has given his personal assurance to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People here that if an investigation of the charges of "virtual slavery" in the flood control camps along the Mississippi river shows the conditions to exist, action will be taken by him to apply the necessary remedies. Following Secretary Hurley's letter came a second one from Major General Lytle Brown, Chief of army Engineers, asking for the name and address of the investigator for the Association so that arrangements might be made for the agent to testify at an inquiry being set up by Secretary Hurley. The N.A.A.C.P. promptly offered to produce the investigator at the time and place of the hearing. Secretary Hurley's letter to Walter White, secretary of the Association came immediately after Mr. White had sent a sharp reply to a letter of General Brown, expressing amazement at General Brown's tacit approval of conditions in the report. Low Wages General Brown, a native of Nashville, Tenn., wrote a long letter under date of August 25 to the Association in which he evidently was angered by the flood control conditions being placed before President Hoover, rather than directly before him. General Brown did not deny that Negroes are forced to work 12 hours a day, seven days a week for an average of 10 cents an hour, which the N.A.A.C.P. charged in its report. Instead, the General excused the low wages by saying the government made it a policy to pay the wages customary in the surrounding region. He excused the long hours by saying the flood control work was of an emergency nature, but he did not explain why the 12-hour double shifts were necessary since all this work is six weeks ahead of schedule and some of it is at least six months ahead. The General attempted to be little the reports of brutality by saying that no names and addresses were given of men beaten. He knows this is dodging the issue because it is worth a Negro's life to tell about beatings in these camps with names and dates. Instead of meeting the issue squarely General Brown suggested that the Negroes along the river take their cases to the courts. White Flays Gen. Brown In a scathing letter of reply, Walter White flayed General Brown's attitude saying: "The tone of your reference to this report distinctly indicates an attitude of hostility which, to say the least, is most astounding in an employee of the United States government. A detailed report of inhumanly long hours, of vicious exploitation and of brutality in the treatment of Negroes employed in the Mississippi flood control project, which is financed by federal funds, is submitted to the President who refers it to you, as the responsible authority, for action. This report is made by an organization of twenty-three years' reputation for careful and accurate investigations. Instead of a courteous reception with an attitude of willingness to correct these conditions which are easily verifiable, your letter shows an eagerness, which is almost amazing, to attack the report instead of the conditions complained of." "We are astounded", the letter continued, "to读 your admission and tacit approval of the law wage scale and long hours mentioned in the report. Such an admission, coming from the Chief Engineer of the War Department is incredible in view of the propaganda of the Federal government at the present time for not only shorter hours, but for the five day week. At a time when unemployment is the major problem of the day, one certainly would expect an enlightened government to do what it could toward lessening unemployment by the hiring of more men on projects of this sort instead of exploiting defenseless workers." Mr. White pointed out that the proper procedure was for the government "vigorously, swiftly, courageously and without bias" to make a thorough investigation of and to correct the conditions alleged to exist, and to follow up the correction by strict, periodic inspections to see that such conditions are not re-established. It was after this letter had been received by General Brown that Secretary Hurley took personal charge and hastened to extend his official regrets for the opinions expressed by his subordinate. The abolishment of the contract system of doing the flood control work and the placing of it under army engineers was urged upon Secretary Hurley by the N.A.A. CP. Senators Condemn Conditions All the twenty-six senators to whom copies of the report were sent were absent from Washington for the summer, but three have seen the material at their homes and have strongly condemned the conditions outlined. Others will see the report on their return to Washington. Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas writes: "I have read the report carefully and am berry much surprised at its disclosures. Certainly such conditions should not be contenued in this country." Senator Robert F. Wagner of New York writes: "I need hardly say that the summary contained in your letter reveals a condition which words are inadequate to describe and which must not be permitted to continue." Senator Otis F. Glenn wires from Chicago: "I have not had time to thoroughly consider the report which you submit, but if the evidence sustains the summary which your letter sets forth, the situation is wholly unjustifiable and the abuses therein should promptly be put to an end. I shall be very glad to cooperate in every proper way with those who are seeking to obtain fair and decent treatment for those employed in the flood control work. BEGIN PROBE OF PEONAGE CHARGE IN MISSISSIPPI Federal Government Starts Ivestigatoin After N.A.A.C.P. Report Charges that colored laborers work under "conditions of virtual slavery" on Mississippi River flood control projects again were subjects of a Federal investigation this week. Brig. Gen. Harley D. Ferguson of Vickersburg; Miss., president of the Mississippi River Commission, was making the inquiry by direction of Maj. Gen Lytle Brown, chief of Army Engineers. It was ordered by Secretary of War Hurley after complaints to President Hoover from the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Ten Cents An Hour This organization, in a statement by Roy Wilkins of New York, assistant secretary, said a special investigator surveyed construction camps between Memphis and New Orleans. These camps are operated by contractors doing the flood control work. "Abuses found to be general," according to the association investigator, were: Long hours, wages as low as 10 cents an hour for 12 to 14 hours' work daily, overcharging through camp commissaries, unsanitary conditions and physical violence. Brown said Ferguson's report would provide "something reliable on which to work and something on which to act if necessary." The association quoted the chief engineer as contending its report was "inspired by those whose reports have been discribed previously." It said Brown referred to findings last December by investigators for the American Federation of Labor and quoted him as saying official inquiries resulted in "practically discrediting them." Brown declined comment on the charges pending receipt of Ferguson's report. Vickersburg Silent VICKSBURG, Miss.—War Department orders for an investigation of charges that peonage conditions prevail among colored workers on Mississippi River levee projects failed to draw comment at the Vickersburg office of United States district engineers. Maj. T. B. Larkin, district engineer, was away on an inspection tour yesterday and others at the office refused to make a statement in his absence. Charges of peonage among the levee workers were investigated by Army engineers some time ago, but contractors denied the allegations. Several hundred men, many of them colored, are engaged in levee work in the Vickersburg district. Sails To Study Problems Of Republic Of Liberia Henry L. West, white newspaper man and former District Commissioner sailed for Europe last week to study problems of the Republic of Liberia. Mr. West will visit Geneva and Monrovia, Liberia. In Geneva he will confer with the International Committee associated with the League of Nations which is attempting to solve the problems of Liberia and insuring the continued sovereignty of the country. In Monrovia Mr. West will hold conferences with President Edwin Barclay.

Moon, who came to Washington a few years ago, virtually unknown, today conducts one of the leading undertaking establishments in the city. A thorough knowledge of his profession, strict attention to business, and excellent service have been the instrumental factors in Mr. Moon's business at 1322 U street, northwest. After spending several years as an apprentice with several of the leading undertakers in the city where he gained his actual experience, he pursued a course at the Schels College of Embalming and Sanitary Science of Philadelphia, Pa., from which he graduated with high honors in 1920. Organized in 1917 Mr. Moon organized the firm of Moon and Gaskins in 117 at Twelfth street and Florida avenue, northwest, where was built a growing and prosperous business. This firm later was changed to Moon and Allen, which was dissolved in 1931, when Mr. Moon established the present business at 1922 U street, northwest. The U street building is thoroughly remodeled to suit the needs of a modern funeral home. Upon entering one is ushered into the spacious and elegant chapel, harmoniously decorated, where services may be held. To the rear of the chapel is the slumber chamber arranged and lighted in quiet dignity. The show room has a various assortment of caskets for the convenient selection of patrons. The next is the embalming room, where only experienced embalmers are at work under the personal supervision of Mr. Moon. On the second floor one finds the office, waiting room and rest room, etc. Man In Grave Condition Following Sunday Fracas A Sunday altercation in the rear of 1927 Fourteenth street, northwest, proved disastrous for Sunnie Latimer, 42, 1342 U street, northwest, who received cuts about the neck. Latimer was taken to Freedman's Hospital in a passing car and treated by emergency department physicians who announced his condition as serious. The man's assailant known only as "Charlie" was described to police as a brown skinned man of slender built with a crippled hand. He was said to have worn a light gray suit at the time of the attack.

William Scott Shot In Both Legs By White Man William Scott, 47, 2600 block I street, was shot in both legs Saturday by a white man, who fired at Scott from behind a tree a few doors from Scott's home. Police of the Third Precinct said Scott was shot as he was about to enter a store at Twenty-sixth and I streets. A few minutes before the shooting Scott was accosted by the white man and an argument ensued. The white man suddenly drew a gun and began firing tear gas at Scott. Reloading the weapon with bullets, the white man followed Scott, hid behind a tree near the corner and opened fire. Officers later arrested Emmett Warren, 2500 block K street and took him to the station for questioning.

It was only 'earnest' money to assure the Grand Lodge that it would not have to pay our debts." Law Passed This Year The whole controversy grew out of a resolution passed at the convention this year, compelling the city selected as the Grand Lodge seat to pay $2,000 to the Grand Lodge ninety days before the convention meets. The grand exalted ruler claims that the law was passed in Detroit in 1930, but that it was left out of the minutes of that session. It was called to his attention, he says, and so it was re- enacted this year. Attorney Nutter claims that it was not passed until this year and, therefore, it did not apply to Atlantic City.

ADMISSION 35 CENTS ANYONE’ CAN DESTROY By Beatrice M, Murpay I stepped oa a spider today, and like Bruce of old, I learned a.les- son, Now—TI hate spiders, and- all those other ereepy crawly things that start one’s blood a-tingling, and make one have a “bitten” sen- sation even when there is no “bite” to substantiate the feeling. But just the same, I wouldn’k go out of my way to kill one of them, simply beeatse most female crea- tures aren’t endowed with the in- stinet to kill, and beeause I, per- sonally, hate to have ‘them “Squash” under my foot. So it was quite by accident that I stopped on the spider. He was going his way; 1 was going mine; and I didn’t see him in time to avoid the fatal impact. Then— when it was all over, I began to think about it. T began to think that, just as I killed this spider by a mere slip of the foot in the wrong direction, so do we many times strike the blow that may prove fatal in our friend- ship with another, by slips of speech, We do seem to say just the wrong thing at the -wrong time and cause a lot of irreparable dam- age, don’t we? Harmless. little things that we really didn’t intend to hurt anyone with—said at the wrong time, and in the wrong place. Some people are famous for their lack of tact, Others make only occasional mistakes. And it is really the unintentional little stings that seem to leave the deepest impression, «That is way they should be avoided, because af- ter they are once uttered, all the attempts to smoothing over only make matters worse. T listened to a young mother en- thusing over her baby who was just learning to say its prayers, the other day. ‘And,” she wound up with a sigh, “f supnose when he gets a little older, he'll be wanting to know why I don't say mine.” “Well,” remarked her friend, “What are you going to say then?” “Nothing,” answered the “mother with a smile. “I'll probably. get down and say them.” “Hypocrite!” was the friend's retort. “I don’t know,” answered the young mother “T sometimes believe 1¢ ig better to be a hypocrite than to destroy someone's faith, if you haven't anything better to offer.”” And you know, I agree with the young. mother. T don’t believe in malicious . deceit. But, on the other hand, I don't believe in tear- ing down, ‘Most mature people, watching youth build her air castles and rosy dreams of the fiiture, smile in a supercilious-knowing Way,and to bluntly, “wale” her ups Spar- ing her future pain, they eall it. Sheilding her from’ the anguish that life inevitably brings. And. do they ‘really help? congas seldom, Their hasty. words of warning only cause the joy and light ‘to die out of Youth's eyes and disillusionment to creep in. There are men and women who can't bear to see another believe in the principles and practices of Christianity. Who consider it a duty to break down that “illusion.” Now I'm not going to discuss the merit or lack of merit in religion, But T do nay ‘that 1f your religion helps you to live a nobler, finer life, why should I try to take that away from you—uniess I can put something even finer and nobler in its place? ‘And we never do. It is human nature to destfoy—with the best intentions of course—but somehow or other we never have our re- building campaign mapped out when We'start tearing down. Of course its harder —much harder—to stand by and see some- one we love headed for what we know (or think we know) is de- struction, But they seldom reach there. Sometimes life is kinder to them than it has been to us, Some- times a kindly fate guides their fect in the right way. But noth- ing—nothing can ‘ake away the pain we left in breaking down. ‘Once—a long time ago—I heard ‘a minister preach a sermon on the lessons of the rose: “Be true to yourself.” “Be beautiful.” “It is 50 easy to destroy.”—And it is. So easy to pluck the petals and crush the flower, But how are you going to put it together again? How are you going to restore the freshness and remove the sears?

Mr. Thompson sat between twelve judges and sanctioned their unanimous decision on giving Miss Purchez title and cash award. A patronage of 6,000 jammed the Savoy and gave a wild rictus welcome to "Big Bill" as he mounted the huge illuminated stage. Gentle Jimmy Gentry, the contest manager, invited the mayor to do the crowning. The contest started July 10 and ended August 21. 400 lassies competed and twenty-five winners appeared in the final contest. Benjamin H. and Mary W.

H. Walker, has just scored a victory for itself in persuading Superintendent J. G. Jeter and the school board of Alleghany county to appoint Thomas L. Dahney as the new principal of the Watson High School for the school year beginning Monday the 19th of this month. The success of the league is considered a victory of considerable significance in educational circles because the school board and Superintendent Jeter were a little apprehensive about the appointment of Mr. Dahney in view of the latter experience with school officials in Buckingham county. The Citizens Voters League of Covington has set a worthy example for other bodies of similar nature and purpose, and its success in securing the appointment of a principal who is not so favorable to certain school authorities should prove encouraging to other Negro citizens and public servants. But for determination, careful organization and persistence the league would not have succeeded in securing the appointment of Mr. Dabney in view of the latter's activities for better schools and higher salaries for Negroes. Mr. Dabney's mistake lay in the fact that he insisted that the Buckingham school officials should devote more attention to the needs of the county training school where he was principal fo: four years ending June, 1931 and to the needs of the other colored schools in the county. He complained that the Negro citizens of the county were not satisfied with unfulfilled promises from year to year and that they wanted action and not promises. Another count against Mr. Dabney is that he is responsible for the movement to secure a higher salary scale for the Negro teachers of Virginia. Grateful Farmer (t₀ passing, hobo)—Hi, you! They need workers at the farm down there beyond the cross- roads. Hobo—Thanks for the warning— I'll make a detour. The Departing Guest—Out of this sum give each of the waiters 10 sous and Henri 5 francs. The Head Porter—But Henri has just now entered our employment. He has not yet served you.

This will be an advantage to day school pupils who may be forced to drop out because of financial or other difficulties. They can continue on in the night schools and not lose their grade or points gained. This reorganization standardizing our night schools, places Washington in the forefront in education and raises the standard of our public schools, which with our standard teachers college gives us a system of public education equal to any city in this country.

BOOK REVIEWS "THE BRIDE OF ACHILLES" BY HENRY BERTRAM LISTER, LL.M. Christopher Publishing House, Boston Massachusetts Readers who enjoy reading the Iliad of Homer; Odyssey; the drama of Euripides, etc, will also enjoy reading the little volume, "The Bride of Achilles," which, in abridged form, covers the salient features of the above works. One little sentence, "No man either coward or hero, has ever escaped from his fate," well describes the action found in the book, for it is one continual expose of both cowards and heroes at- tempting to dodge a fate that proves their undoing. By reading this abridged work of an old master one is reminded that there really is, "Nothing new under the sun," for today we witness the same ruling passions, greed, avarice, ill-advised ambitions, injustices, wars and rumors of wars, plots and counter-plots, slayings, love-trysts, unfaithfulness and the myriad weaknesses of individuals, both high and low ranks of society; as the world experienced many many centuries ago, as evidenced by the knowledge handed down to us by the ancient historical writers. The author dedicated the book to the heroines and heroes of the World War, with these lines from Sophocles: "I deem that man to be of no account Who loves a friend more than he loves the State. It is our country, which preserves us all. We sail in her as in a well built ship Upon a sea which may engulf us all "RECESSIONAL" By WILLIAM HURLBUT (Stanley Rose, Ltd.,—Hollywood, Calif.)

Christine, a widow, is a member of a group of wealthy cosmopolitans and artists. She is a successful writer and maintains a town house as well as a country estate and is continually surrounded with fellow craftsmen of various temperments and opinions. Because it seems to be the reigning fad Christine and some of her friends take up the socializing of prominent colored men and women of Harlem and by so doing causes her neighbors and friends to do considerable gossiping and it is then that we gather the opinions and sentiments of the many white characters involved. Christine, however, becomes seriously involved in a passionate affair with a physically attractive ebony fighter which she attempts to keep entirely secret from her friends and Brooks, the man to whom she is engaged. To free herself from this love affair she kills her ebony lover and then follows the complete expose of her love trysts. Thoughtful Lines We will never make our dreams come true by choking them with doubts and fears. We have got to put foundations under them. Failure and success are oftentimes separated by only the one word—discouragement! The only remedy for fear is to know that evil has no power—that it is a nonentity—merely a lack of something. Fear and worry is the filth of the mind that causes all trouble, that brings about all disease. Banish it! Don't sit with arms folded and wait for someone else to blaze the trail—set your own mind and Clifford C. Mitchell. OUR MAILBAG OUR MAILBAG WHY NOT BUILD OUR OWN BROADCASTING STATION Editor; The Tribune After reading the article in the Tribune recently on the following Sunday at 6 o'clock p.m, I tuned in on station WJSV, expecting to hear a "Punch and Judy" sideshow dialogue, judging from what I read. But instead, I heard a sermon; a good sermon; a sermon full of truth, facts and logic; yes, some humor also. That wasn't out of place. When did we Negroes become so serious minded that we couldn't laugh at a wisercrack? Couldn't laugh when we really needed to cry? When did we cease to take life as a joke? To my mind it is a thousand pities that we wouldn't. Elder Michaux's sermons are of such nature that any common sense thinker can glean many helpful thoughts from them. After the conclusion of the services, I settled down in rigid silence to think why all the foolish bally-ho—why so much silly, talk about that which doesn't concern anyone especially, and is directed to all whom will hear and heed. After a length of time spent in thus meditating, the answer came to me in a flash. Remember reading in the "Great Book" "When the sons of God went to present themselves before the Lord." Who also came? His iminary Highness, horned, betailed and cloven footed, the Devil. And when asked by the Lord, "Whence cometh thou?" answered "From wecking to and fro up and down the Earth." In truth he should have said, "From poking in and meddling, — intercepting every good cause on the Earth and in creation." Yes the Devil was and is still on the job. If he can't intercept a cause, he will stir up confusion, break peace,—in fact keep everything but good going on. So, not only Elder Michaux, but all others who try to live and carry on right or try to accomplish something worth while on this Earth (especially we Negroes) can surely join in with David and cry out, "When I would do good, evil is always present." Therefore, neither Miss Nannie Burroughs nor Elder Michaux needn't be surprised when they hear a lot of howling about what they say or do. Fussing and fighting are characteristic of the majority of we "Cushites." Sometimes we are almost persuaded to believe that they are traits that habe followed us since the days of "Cursed be thou Cana." Maybe not—but we certainly give them a face be it true or otherwise. Unfortunately (for us) we *tried* giving some other folks a piece of our minds and they gave us the air, and as a result many of us are found parking in groups on street corners, tattered and torn and hungry, yawning and squawking about what "they won't let us do." Luckily, Elder Michaux broadcast: his sermons instead of having to preach to a single group. He can hew to the line, letting the chips fall where they will or may. I'm not casting insinuations at his followers for I know nothing about them and would scorn the faintist thought of criticising those of whom I know nothing or meddling with that which does not concern me. The ministry in general is handicapped, sorely dependent and cannot hurl firebrawls of truth among its flocks for fear they be ordered to "take up their beds and walk." I'm making no excuses for the broken down condition of the ministry for it is a shame upon humanity and a thousand pities that such conditions have come about. And further the ministry is just what we the people have made it. The time is now at hand when men will not endure sound doctrine. This is a critical age—may be the "last days"—who knows? So it behooves all preachers and teachers to give the people "straight goods." It should be immaterial to them whether it pleases the people or not just so they preach the gospel in its purity, for God didn't commission his decibles to go and preach his (God's gospel) to please the people collectively or individually. Therefore, no preacher has the right to preach other than the truth. The world is sin-sick and dying from being fed on white-washed lies. "Taffy, sweet stuff pleases the people," is so much bunk. God said "O ye generations of vipers!" God intends that his ambassadors rebuke the people on account of their sins, telling them, "whoseover believeth in Me shall be saved and whoseover believeth not shall be damned." Being the wife of a minister, I'm very well versed on what many preachers are on against. As one who has and is trying to advance the "good cause" I bid you, Elder Michaux in the name of all that pertains to good, go on, and serve God according to the dictation of your own conscience; labor under your own vine and fig tree; saw your wood and say nothing. Of course you will and need not expect other than to be criticised; molested by the "Penny wise and Pound foolish," who like a dead fish in the moonlight shines (tries to shine) on the front pages of newspaper in order to claim attention from the reading public, but falls flat in the opinion of the common sense thinkers. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9. 1982 is an injustice to the worthy souls who sacrifice their lives daily to the advancement of good causes; those who have refused to stay in the proverbial "rut," have defied the stones of disadvantage, hardships and trials that clutter the road to success and have attained the heights, to be everlastingly hobbared by uncalled for and less needed criticisms. We need to be confronted with news of good things, worthy things and helpful things instead. Many of us are like the oft spoken of "Dog" that lay on the hay stack,—couldn't eat the hay himself, but was too-lop-eared mean to let the poor "Ox" eat in peace. Station WJSV ober which Rev. Michaux preached might be a K. K.K. station, but what of it? What can we do about it? Not a so called "dodrasted" thing. There is one thing we can do if we will; we can draw a few of our "very few" dollars out of the banks (run by some other folks) set up a broadcasting station for ourselves and give our many talented people something to do. That would seem the sensible thing to do. We could also open up some dry-goods stores, grocery and five and ten cent stores and get our many churches and other organizations to pledge their support; they would be glad to do so. We needn't sit down and twiddle our thumbs and think the depression is nearing its end. The slump has really just begun. Several years ago when one, Clarence Darrow, predicted the time when only the fit could survive, we thought, and many called him a fool. But the time is surely right here. And only the fit, mentally physically and morally are, seemingly, able to forge ahead. There are many things that we can do toward helping ourselves through this depression, and if we don't help our individuals, we are going to be found sadly wanting. There'll be no "Elijah's ravens" to feed us, for the days of miracles are past. We can fool our time away in fault-finding, fussing and gossiping but circumstances are going to lash us on to do something in order to keep abreast of the times. We have been sleep on the "job" too long. But we are going to wake up! Something is going to awaken us, and our awakening is going to be likened unto a man snatched from the terrible thonges of a horrible nightmare by falling suddenly out of bed. It is high time that we make some kind of a start toward proving that we were not always intended, "drawers of water and hewers of wood." We must lay aside the many weights that have so long beset us, and run the race with determination and patience,—not "Jackass Smutt's patience," but the kind that wroughts a good work. Our goal should and must be a higher standard of womanhood, manhood and better citizenship. Let us try the game of helping; not hindering, loving our fellow-beings as we love ourselves. It's a great game if you learn how to play it. Let's try. Editor, Tribune: A few weeks ago I wrote an article in the "Mailbag" in which I attempted to make a personal appeal for young people. I stated that that I was surprised at the lack of encouragement given to the youth of this city in regard to greater participation in the important activities and plans of our respective groups and organizations, such as the churches, lodges, clubs and other similar educational and uplifting movements. Since the publishing of that article, many people have discussed with me the great benefits that could be derived from organizing a city-wide youth movement here in Washington. The two large states of New York and New Jersey are today meeting with tremendous success in their bi-annual sessions of the Young Peoples' Conference. And just what do these Young Peoples' Conferences consist of? What are their motives? Their aims and their ideals? Briefly the answers are as follows: 1. These conferences are sessions held usually in the spring and fall of each year at a designated church or open air camp. It is strictly a non-sectarian organization, for there one may find representatives of the Baptist, Methodist, Episcopalian, and Catholic faiths and also members of the Y. M.C.A. Boy Scouts, etc. The only restriction is in the age of the delegates. A delegate must have reached the age of seventeen years. The conference usually starts on a Saturday afternoon and ends the following Sunday evening. 2. The purpose of this conference is to encourage greater freedom of expression among the young people, to tutor them in the art of self-government (for the conference has its own officers composed of the (young delegates), to be benefited by the knowledge and guidance of experienced lecturers, teachers, and other professional people who are constantly invited to these conferences DIGESTING THE NEWS By CLIFFORD C. MITCHELL ducing something constructive instead of lolling in idleness. Stretching the thought a little further it seems, only reasonable that the men and women who would be directly benefited by such imate productiveness, and who are otherwise unemployed, could give sufficient of their labor to the government units, in lieu of taxes, and thus help to reduce, and to solve the problem of an ever-growing tax expense. Industry and politics might well put a practical premium on industriousness and honesty; rewarding only those who have earned the right through years of service and faithfulness. There should be a law to compel each worker to first acquire, and own a home and these homes should be forever exempted. Thus when industry is slack each worker will have a home and if he needs further provisions he can draw them from the surplus created by the now dile prisoners, and pay for them by giving his labor, or a part of it, for constructive community purpose. This thought, and impression of my visit, may be entirely impractical, and there may be reasons, why it is better to build more and bigger prisons to support men in idleness; why it is better to increase taxes in order to support the unemployed; why it is better for men, women and children to starve and go raggedy to maintain artificial market prices? Nevertheless, I am presenting my suggestion for a solution. praised Grover Cleveland more fulsomely than any non-partisan would feel called upon to extol any living Democrat. I also recall that Professor John M. Langston often recounted to me how Mr. Douglas went out of his way to defeat his congressional aspiration from Virginia because he ran counter to the regular Republican regime, both in the state and nation. The older ones will recall that Harrison would have carried Virginia in 1888 had it not been for Langston's defection. Mr. Douglas doubtless thought that he was serving the best interests of his race by opposing the Government in its aggression against the feeble black Republicans when upholding the Grand Old Party in opposition to the ambition of a Negro congressional aspirant. But Mr. Langston never thought so. But the past is at least secure. Whatever historical perspective may add or substruct, Frederick Douglass looms as the one colossal figure of the colored race on this continent. If he were living today, he would doubtless head up the National Negro Non-Partizan League. I will say however that the modern tendency in biography is towards realism rather than romanticism. George Washington and Abraham Lincoln must stand up and be viewed just as they were, warts, blemishes and all. Their luster shines forth all the more brilliantly because they are not painted as Catholic Saints without spot or blemish. Mr. Douglass' life and character will stand the same test. Nothing will be added to his greatness by the filial adulation of his grandson. I have said very little in response to Mr. Douglass' insinuations for I find in them absolutely nothing to answer except to express regret that a man of so mild a disposition should let his ill humor get the better of him. But I suppose that even this can be accounted for and excused at the slightest suggestion of affront to the fame of his ancestor. As my release gave him opportunity to reaffirm his ancestral adolation, his letter which it invoked gives me occasion to add to that glorification by pointing out his misconstruction of fact and misinterpretation of my motive. JUST THIS AND THAT Interesting snatches of talk overheard in Mt. Vernon Square's Oatmeal Alley: "Yeh, honey, deyought call it a 'clipse, but things is so bad 'til honest I believes dat dey done laid de sun off from wuk for a half day. Yeh, chile, done laid the Lord's sun off from his day's wuk." "Oh you's right 'bout dat . . . dat black boyshooly did beat all of dem white folks wid his runnin', out at dem 'Lympies, but . . . she was jess one lone man . . . jess ONE lone black man."

"Man, dat gal ain't dark; she's dar-rek!" A letter from a school teacher friend came drifting in from New York. All that I remember from the letter is, that there is a revival of the slang expression, "horse feathers", since the appearance of the Four Marx Brothers in a comedy by that title, and that he SUGGESTING A SOLUTION Recently, I journeyed a few miles from the "village" in which I have lived for a number of years, and thoroughly inspected a mammouth institution. The impression given, and the subsequent thoughts, no doubt, would have been equally as productive by an inspection of a similar institution in any state in the union. The only difference being that the institution I visited happened to be the largest of tis kind in the world. The institution is new, costing millions of dollars, the buildings and inside yard cover an acreage of fifty-five acres; it is thoroughly modern; at the present time it will house five thousand men, with ample room for expansion. All of its resident occupants are prisoners, and with a small exception, practically all of them are idle, resorting to artificial methods of producing physical exercise in order to maintain normal health. In the institution—or prison—are enough idle men, (if the laws, unions and propagandists permitted them to do so) to raise and prepare enough food to feed every hungry man, women and child in the entire state; enough idle men to manufacture foot-ware for every poorly shod man, woman and child in the state; enough idle men to manufacture textiles to clothe every raggedy man, woman and child in the state, and enough willing inmate labor who would rejoice at the opportunity of pro- To encourage, develop, and solidify a greater and more genuinely religious and social compact among the various denominations and groups. 3. The conference's ideals and purposes are to train young men and women of our race to realize the significance, the necessity and the importance of unity, consolidation, education, religion, brotherhood and fraternity as the means and end to make this world a better place to live in—commensurate with the principles and teachings of Jesus Christ. To the individual who has never been a participant in such a conference, words cannot fully and justly express the feeling of pride, achievement and good fellowship he exudes on being present at such a conference—to contribute some suggestions to the business meeting, to listen to some leader's enlightening and fascinating remarks on the subject, to be entertained by an instructive program rendered by the various members of the conference, and lastly, but not the least of all, to be royally dined at the supper table by the "host" church. The very thoughts are inspiring and thought-provoking. As I reminisce happily of those joyfully spent periods of my life a tinge of sadness enters, somewhat intermingling with those erstwhile, peaceful remembrances—and the realization of the fact that this community is without such a progressive productive Youth Movement, leads me to wonder about the possibility of inaugurating such a conference here. I have merely attempted to offer a suggestion. I am, however, anticipating the aid of many of Washington's distinguished and learned men and women to further this progressive cause, so that in the not too distant future, Washington's young people will have some definite goal to strive for—representatives of a Washington Youth Conference. Alvin A. Webb. KELLY MILLER REPLIES TO JOSEPH DOUGLASS Editor: Tribune: I was greatly surprised to read in last week's Tribune a letter from Mr. Joseph H. Douglass in reply to what he considers a reflection on his grandfather, in one of my recent releases. Mr. Douglass has put the wrong construction on my statement and its intended meaning. I was merely recounting casually the various public men whom I have known and their failure to secure from the Republican Party our just claims and recognition. I stated that I did not believe that the race would make any further political progress by one-sided adherence to the Grand Old Party. I take it for granted that all intelligent Negroes whose "i, q." ranks above the moronic average, will agree to this basic proposition. Mr. Douglass was a great man and a great partisan. Partizanship was justifiable in his day, but not in ours. When he uttered the most famous of all political mottos: "The Republican Party is the ship; all else is the sea," he expressed a literal and absolute truth. That was in 1872 when the Republican Party was at its best and the Democratic Party at its worst. Certain of our platinudinous Republicans are now repeating this motto as if the Republican party under Grant was the same as that under Harding, Coolidge and Hoover. "Time makes ancient gods uncouth." Mr. Douglass defied his party for his race in case of pressure put upon him as Minister to Hayti. I recall his scathing article in the North American Review as a master piece of political polemics. I also heard Mr. Douglass before By DUTTON FERGUSON BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL KELLY MILLER SAYS: WHAT OF THE NEGRO NON PARTIZAN LEAGUE? The National Non-Partisan Negro League was launched less than a year ago. It was motivated by the dynamic of dissatisfaction with existing political conditions. We had just passed through eleven years of Republican rule, the last three of which had been under the present administration. During all of this time the Negro had been given no adequate consideration. His political estate had grown steadily worse. His claims had been denied; his grievances ignored. In the meantime voteless Southern Negroes had shifted to the North by hundreds of thousands with effective franchise. The two great parties had come to a balance. The Republicans controlled the Senate by grace of the Progressives with a majority of one. The Democrats had a fragile majority of three or four in the House. One Northern state after another had gone Democratic by way of choice of governors, senators and representatives. The attitude of the two parties towards us was at parity. We had as many friends in House and Senate on one side of the fence as on the other. Both sides realized that the Negro vote constituted the balance of power so strategically distributed among the states that neither party had any hope or expectation of national victory without our help. But none of these things moved President Hoover who stood steadfast and unmovable in his engineering frigidity toward our group claims. The presidential campaign was getting under way. Delegates were about to be chosen to the national conventions of both parties, which were alike very frankly sensitive to our claims and demands. Then, if ever, was the psychological moment. Under the magnetic leadership of Oscar DePriest, who at that time, focussed the political sense of the race, the Non-Partizan Conference was called to meet in Washington. They answered the call in unexpected numbers. They came from North and South, East and West, all touching and agreeing on the same thing, namely, that unweanable devotion to a single party had already been carried to the point of diminishing wisdom. Such unanimity of sentiment, such enthusiastic concord with the oponion that wise political action demanded placing race before party was never witnessed on this wise before. Oscar DePriest was elected chairman and proclaimed race leader with a unanimous voice that echoed throughout the land. I was made chairman of the committee on resolutions. In that capacity I consulted the opinion and judgement of all shades of political belief and opinion. My draft with suitable alterations and amendments was enthusiastically adopted as the sense of the conference and broadcast to the race and na- summer to find a "numbers man" who might "pay off" should he "hit for two-bits." The "rods of knowledge" must be fed! Within recent years, these gods have had to loaf about the breadline of moral and mental let-me-down for their food. --- Some smart alec of a space-rate writer for The Sunday Star of August 28, 1932, seems to feel that Mrs. Nancy Miles, 107-year-old inmate of the Stoddard Baptist Home deserves to be called "Nancy" in the public press. The matter may not be any of my business. Mrs. Miles may not have any objection to being called "Nancy" in the white folk's "nice" Sunday papers. As far as I am racially concerned, the article in The Sunday Star smacks of a "familiarity that breeds contempt." Color and "previous conditions of servitude" would never cause a first-rate reporter to become disrespectful and show signs of "no raising." Mrs. Nancy Miles deserves to have all of the world come to the Stoddard Baptist Home and pay her homage. A long, full life that reaches 107 years certainly demands the respect of a space-rate writer. The children playing in the street "up in my neck of the woods" are always imitating some one of the four things during their curb-side pranking: the shrill scream of fire trucks; "Cab" Calloway's throaty "boop-a-ba-ba" racketeers, and roaring airplane engines. At times when their play calls for them being all four of these things at one time, I frown up here in my pent house (third floor front) and crave to be the lightning-rod keeper atop the Empire State Building (one hundred and two stories above the streets of New York.) Children don't sing "Little Bo Peep" any more. They go into a rumba and chant a "bo-peep-a-dah-dah." Yeah, man! Aw, yeah, man. According to the beautiful rehearsals which I have heard "Doc" Perry's Orchestra give in an untown cellar every morning, he is working up a fascinating combination. With "Doc" Perry at the piano, Arthur Smith plinking dreamily on the banjo, and Frederick Simpson going from his saxophone to his other wind instruments with perfect ease and rhythm, there's an orchestra that ought to make good after its appearance at the Chinese-American Restaurant on Labor Day. This town is full of excellent talent that should be harnessed to workby activity—instead of being draped up against trees and lamp- tion as focusing the political mind of the Negro. With becoming modesty, I am willing to compare this paper with any yet indicted by an. Negro pen for its soundness in race statesmanship. Even the never dying Negro Republicans had to accept it in principle. Only one conspicuous Negro politician had the hardiado to condemn the conference and its deliberations. In the midst of it all he is reported to have said that it is a crime for the Negro to divide his vote. The only comment that such an attitude deserves is—"May the Lord have mercy on his intellect." But the crafty Negro politicians, who are Republicans by appetite, unable to face the issue in open contest, resorted to that type of strategy and craft characterized by low African cunning. Emissaries kept the path warm between the conference and Walter Brown. President Hoover's white-Negro go-between, and advised him of all that had taken place and helped fabricate schemes for undoing it. The destruction of the poor is his poverty. The political receivers of the race utilized the sentiment of the conference to demand more crumbs of recognition—more influence, more recognition, more self for themselves and their complaisant friends who assured the great white boss that, leave it to them, the race would be kept regular. Upon the sinister silence of some of the moving spirits inside the League, I do not, at this time, choose to comment at their sudden cessation of zeal. I am bepuzzled and remain regretfully silent. There has been no change in the situation since the assembly of the League. Every claim put forth, every grievance expressed, every purpose avowed remain now just as then. The two conventions met. The claims of the race were put in identical terms before both parties. Both rendered equivalent responses—as all zeros are equal. A session of Congress has met and adjourned. The Democratic House under the speakership of Mr. Carner, now candidate for the vice Presidency, was more favorable in sponsoring appropriations for Howard University than the Republican Senate. Messrs. Hoover and Roosevelt have been nominated on their respective tickets. The former's record on the race question we know, and the latter's we do not know so well. The one we positively dislike, judging by the unanimous voice of the race as gathered from pulpit, press and other organs of race opinion. The other is without comprehensive record to be liked or disliked. As publicity agent of the National Negro Non-Partizan League, I now and here call upon the League membership and the millions of voters whose sentiment they focussed and expressed, to put their views into practical action during the present campaign. and T streets. A friend who has just returned from Africa was telling me some of his strange experiences. Among other things, he told me about his surprise to find that he and his attendants walked full into a heard of sleeping elephants, while he was on a long trek in the jungles of Liberia. I tried to picture my friend's extreme astonishment! It seems, as if sleeping elephants are the sort of wild creatures that are better off when they are undisturbed. Strange as it may seem, I was not able to picture so perfectly my friend's astonishment until, later in the day, he happened to tear a considerable portion of the waxed paper wrapping from a loaf of bread and found that . . . the bread was sliced!!!! Sleeping elephants! Three and a half years of being out of touch with this part of the world does make some vast changes. A chap can't return but that he finds that the "staff of life" has made some machine-age short-cuts! Sliced bread! Two loyal Tribunites have written in; one column fan wants to know what my views are on "the Howard University situation"; the other fan wants to know what I look like. What'a view, what'a view! As for "the Howard University situation"... the University is situated on a high hill in God's free air and sunshine. From the campus, there is a commanding view of midtown and downtown Washington. During my undergraduate years, I was too busy breathing the good air of knowledge and meeting all of the radiant, capable, learned and loyal persons at the University to seek out the back-door locations of the garbage cans. My interest in Howard was and is in the wholesome body of knowledge which it dispenses to the hopeful humans who dedicate their lives to sincere service beyond Howard's historic walls. Knowing full well that the University has directed this service to the ends of humanity, I see no "situation" other than a fruitful hill reared above the City of Washington. The common intelligence of a blind mole leads him to build useful holes. . . even in mountains. Though there may be a useless or unwarranted tearing into the mountain, it's a mountain right on. And the moles are blind. And what do I look like? Well, it is my plan to keep this column good, straight and different. See me from left to right in the zoo
