Doctors and Legion Protest Vets Jim-Crow Hospital MOB BURNS DEAD MAN 7 CENTS PER COPY James Reese Europe Post Says It Is Un-Christian And Un-American The James Reese Europe Post here of the American Legion passed a resolution against the cretection of a hospital in Pennsylvania for Negro veterans only. It says "such a policy is un-Christian, un-American and contrary to the Constitution of the United States." Senator Reed of Pennsylvania, introduced a bill in Congress to establish this hospital in his state for Negroes only. The Manhattan Medical Society of New York has been leading the fight against the establishing of this hospital and Senator Reed has changed his mind for a separate, Jim crow hospital. The action of the James Reese Europe Post follows Whereas: Senate Bill 3302 inured-ced at the last session of Congress by Senator Reed proposes the erection of a hospital somewhere in the state of Pennsylvania, for the exclusive use of Negro Veterans of all Wars; and: Whereas: Such a policy is unChristian, un-American, contrary to the Constitution of the United States and the American Legion, in that the Negro Veteran is the only racial group so singled out for separate hospitalization and treatment, and Whereas: Such a policy of discrimination on account of race would undoubtedly undermine the Negro's litherer unquestioned loyalty, since such a policy suggests racial inferiority and would thereby jeopardize the program of Americanism sponsored by the (Continued on page 2) BREAKS BACKBONE OF LOTTERY HERE IN NUMBERS RAID Police Arrest 9 Men And 1 Woman In Headquarters Of Numbers Bank Nine men and one woman were held under $500 bond Thursday following a raid by police in the 400 block of M street in what police described as one of the largest "numbers" banks in Washington. Those arrested were Estella Askins, 22, 100 block R street; William Palmer, 33, 300 block R street; Robert Young, 29, 400 block R street; Maurice Newsome, 40, 1600 block First street; John R.

Assistant United States Attorney Frank W. Adams, prosecutor of gaming cases, estimated that the alleged ring took in about $2,000 per day, after he had examined a truck filled with records and slips which police seized. The case was ordered presented to the grand jury by Adams who said no Police Court preliminary hearing would be held. The raiding squad was headed by Sergeant R. B. Carroll who entered the building after informing a man at the door that he had a complaint that the man who murdered Policeman George W. Shinault was hiding in the house. In the search the alleged gaming evidence was uncovered and the ten persons arrested. Run By Whites Sergeant Carroll said when he entered the office was busily engaged, four persons operating adding machines while others were asserting thousands of receipt slips, which the police subsequently confiscated. Police said they had information the entire business was conducted by men from Camden and Newark, N.J., who were not arrested in the raid. Sergeant Carroll said the ring operated a score of offices over the city.

NEGROES BOYCOTT MERCHANT AFTER ATTACK ON GIRL NEGROES BOYCOTT MERCHANT AFTER ATTACK ON GIRL Store Keeper Becomes Angry When Negroes Refuse To Patronize Him Angered because colored residents in the neighborhood are successfully boycotting his store, J. Maites, a jew grocer, has threatened Mrs. A. M. Scott, 203 Ninth street, northeast, with arrest claiming that Mrs. Scott is influencing people to stay away from the store. Maites who operates a store at the corner of Ninth and I streets, northeast, gained the wrath of the neighbors when he is alleged to have condoned a white man who slapped a colored girl who was nursing his child. Since the mishap colored people have stopped buying from his store and it is said he has lost on an average of $200 per week. At first Maites told Mrs. Scott that colored people who dealt with him were poor customers and failed to pay their bills. Now he is clamoring for these same people to come back to his store. Mrs. Scott told a Tribune reporter this week that the merchant has annoyed her repeatedly and claims she was instrumental in promoting the boycott. A white man who claimed he was a lawyer and represented a grocery association, called on Mrs. Scott this week and tried to get her to persuade colored people to lift the boycott. When she refused to have anything to do with it the alleged lawyer threatened to have Mrs. Scott arrested. Shipboy Bling girl The boycott was started several weeks ago when a nurse girl employed by Maltese was slapped by Raymond Bligh, white, 925 Ninth street. When neighbors heard of the assault they went after Bligh and only timely arrival of police saved the man from being dealt summarily justice at the hands of infuriated citizens. Maltese slipped the man in his store and called police. Bligh slapped the girl when she objected to a small daughter of Bligh's annoying the Maltese baby and pushed the child aside. The child went home and told her father that the girl had knocked her down. Blight came to the store and without warning brutally slapped and beat the girl May Close Store Maites withheld the nurse girl's pay several days after telling her she no longer had a job. Maites is alleged to have offered Bligh $35 in case the latter needed a lawyer. Maites is also said to have threatened the brother of Miss Ethel Bryant, the nurse. A. S. Pinkett, local secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, became interested in the case and plans to prosecute Maites and Bligh. Miss Bryant is said to have left the city when she was intimidated by Maites. Maites also tried to get colored people in the neighborhood to come back to his store and became angry when Mrs. Scott refused to use her influence to carry out his orders. Maites has suffered considerable losses since the boycott and may have to close his store if colored persons continue their boycott of his store. CYRUS SHIPPEN KILLED DURING NUMBERS FIGHT CYRUS SHIPPEN KILLED DURING NUMBERS FIGHT Given Brothers Exonerated By Jury Following Investigation Gangland turned out in all of its finery to pay homage to a fallen chief this week following the death of Cyrus Shippen, 26-year-old killer, numbers backer, bootlegger, alleged dope peddler and allround bad man. Shippen died at Freedmen's Hospital Sunday afternoon from a fractured skull sustained in a fight Saturday with Cornellus Givens, 26, 1804 Valley street, northwest, and Walter Givens, 31, 1840 Cedar court, northwest, two brothers. Slot Sweetheart Agnes Wood, 1340 Cedar court, the dead man's sweetheart testified at a coroner's investigation at the District Morgue Monday morning that she still bears scars on her body inflicted by Shippen She said he shot her last week and three weeks ago he cut her with a knife. Police stated that her body is a mass of scars as a result of beatings by Shippen. Officers say each time she has refused to prosecute the man. Following the inquest the Givens brothers were exonerated after a jury returned a verdict stating that John Given killed Shippen in self-defense. Struck With Brick Shippen died from a fractured skull after the was struck on the head with a brick by John Givens. CROWD ATTRACTED TO FINAL RITES OF 520-POUND WOM'N Eight Pallbearers Necessary To Carry Body of Mrs. Priscilla Reed Over 1,000 cusiosity seekers milled about the Ebenezer M. E. Church Saturday to witness the funeral dites held for Mrs. Priscilla Reed, 520-pound woman, who died suddenly last Tuesday from high blood pressure. Interment was at Payne Cemetery. Nearly two hundred persons jammed the church at Fourth and D streets, southwest, to hear the rites conducted by Rev. Walter A. English, pastor. Eight pallet bearers were necessary to handle the specially built casket in which the heavy woman was buried. The casket was 30 inches wide and six feet, three inches long. It was three times the size of caskets used for the burying of an average person. In removing the body from the woman's late residence, 100 Francis street, southeast, Frank Williams, of the Williams Undertaking Establishment, which handled the funeral, was forced to tear away four inches of brick adjacent to the front window of the house. The window was also removed. In transporting the huge casket to and from his funeral home at 208 L street, northwest, Mr. Williams had to remove the large glass window from its position. Twice as much embalming fluid was used in embalming the woman's body. A throng of people crowded around the dwelling in Francis street when the pallebearers brought the body out, and every inch of available space in the church was taken up as the funeral services. Mrs. Reed was a member of the Forrest Temple Lodge of Elks. She is survived by six daughters, one son and four grandchildren, none of which are extremely fat like she was. Mrs. Reed who was a middle-aged woman had maintained her 500-pound weight for many years.

Submits Questionnaire To End Political Evasion On Rights Of The Negro; Eleven Points Submitted Prisoner Chants Old Hymn Believe Perry Howard And Steps Off Into Eternity Will Get Patronage Back NEW YORK.—Asserting that heretofore the demands of the Negro had been "evaded in an American political discussion when they have not been relegated to the hate-inspiring diatribes of demagogues," the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has submitted to President Hoover and Franklin D. Roosevelt a questionnaire calling for "plain and unequivocal declaration on the subject of race relations." In its letters to both candidates the Association states that it is asking the questions to provide Negroes with a "competent and authoritative basis in determining their choice of candidates in the coming election." No questionnaire is being sent the Socialists or Communist party candidates, inasmuch as these parties have adequately declared themselves on the issues involved. The questions to which replies as full and as direct as possible are asked from the leaders of the two main political parties, are as follows: "1. To what extent will you as head of your party, personally assume responsibility for ending the attitude of intolerance to Negro participation in politics in the South, manifested in schemes to prevent Negro from qualifying as voters, tricks of Lily-whiteism, and in devices to bar Negroes from Primary elections? "2. Will you seek to eliminate racial considerations from appointments and promotions under civil service, for example by submitting finger prints for the photographs now required for identification purposes? **Appoint Negroes** "3. Will you, if elected, appoint Negroes to office in proportion to their numerical strength in your party, including in your appoint- MEMPHIS, Tenn.—(CNS)—Nonchalantly singing "The Old Time Religion", Luther Wallace, alias J. Monroe Brown, a prisoner at the city jail suspended himself from the ceiling of his cell by his belt and ended his own life. Wallace was arrested along with Ruby Garett, for a series of fake accident insurance claims. He has already according to police confessed his own guilt but steadfastly denied that the girl had anything to do with his fake activities. According to the girl, Wallace was a landscape gardener. She also stated that Wallace had two sisters, Mrs. Henry Wallace, who married a cousin living at Randolph, Ala., and Mrs. Luther Harris, of Denopolis, Ala., also a brother, Reuben Wallace, of Tuscaloosa. ments, diplomatic and consular costs? "4. Will you endeavor to stamp out entirely all forms of racial segregation in the government service, particularly in Washington? "5. Will you take steps to open to Negroes opportunities for training and service without regard to race in the armed forces of the United States, including the academies at West Point, Annapolis, and New London, the air service and other branches? "6. Will you maintain a cordial and constructive interest in the federal-supported institution for higher education for Negroes—Howard University? "7. Will you favor enactment of federal anti-lynching law and will you sign such a bill if enacted in Congress? Liberia Referred To "8. Will you protect the self-government and independence of the Republic of Liberia, and will you restore to self-government the black Republic of Haiti now dominated in fiscal matters by the United States government in the interest of American bankers? "9. Will you personally order that there be no color discrimination on relief and public works projects financed wholly or in part with federal funds and that Negroes be given a fair share of work on such jobs? "10. Will you personally order that in any expenditure of federal funds for educational purposes, there be adequate safeguards against race discrimination in the expenditure of such funds by the federal government or locally through states "11. Will you in word and deed, so far as in your power lies, procure the recognition and observance of the full citizenship rights of the Negro in the United States?" JACKSON, Miss.—(CNS)—The resignation of Lamont Rowlands, lily-white Republican of this state, as President Hoover's patronage referee for Mississippi, has been healed by the white press and Negro political leaders here as signalling the return of patronage powers to the regular State Republican organization. This belief is current not only because of the approval given the Howard-Booze-Redmond regulars by the Republican National Committee and the Republican National Convention, but also because of a general feeling that such recognition is necessary to prevent the tide of Negro voters from moving away from President Hoover. Office: 920 U St. N. W. TRIO HELD FOR GRAND JURY IN 100 THEFT CASES TRIO HELD FOR GRAND JURY IN 100 THEFT CASES Men Stole Plants From Homes In Order To Open Flower Shop Although one of the trio had been charged with thirty-seven cases of petit larceny and all had been connected with more than 100 recent cases of larceny and housebreaking in the northwest section, three men were bound over to the grand jury from Police Court, Tuesday, under bond on housebreaking charges. The men, George Washington Davis, 40, and his brother, William H. Davis, 42, Woodburn, D. C., and Alvin Queen, 30, 1342 W street, were also formally charged with two cases of petit larceny. They demanded jury trials, and Judge Gus R. Schuldt fixed bond at $20,000 each. Officers said George Davis had served nineteen years in the penitentiary. Policeman J. F. Patton, who first arrested the kriu, and Detective Sergt. E. F. Lewis said they have recovered more than $2,000 worth of property which they allege the men appropriated from more than 100 homes. It included house furnishings, potted plants, boxwood bushes, bicycles, garden hose and even lead pipe and acid, which formed the basis of the two larcenies today with which they were charged. HEART ATTACK IS FATAL TO RETIRED DISTRICT TEACHER HEART ATTACK IS FATAL TO RETIRED DISTRICT TEACHER Mrs. Lavana Moss Stricken On Train Enroute Here From New York Suddenly stricken while sitting aboard a Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in Jersey City, New Jersey, Mrs. Layana James Moss, retired District school teacher, died of heart failure late Saturday night. Mrs. Moss who was traveling alone had just entered the train enroute to her home in Washington when she was suddenly stricken and died almost instantly. Passengers on the train notified railroad officials who identified the 68-year-old former school teacher by papers in her baggage and immediately relayed word to her relatives here at 1515 S street, northwest, by long distance telephone. Mrs. Moss was on her way to the Capital City after visiting friends in New York City following a summer's vacation with her sister, Mrs. Evelyn Vanderhoop in Gay Head, Massachusetts. At the time she greeted friends farewell prior to boarding the train, Mrs. Moss was in apparent good health. Mrs. Moss began her pedagogical career in the Washington public schools in 1893 after teaching in the schools of Philadelphia for a short time. She was retired from local public schools in 1928. She was a graduate of the old Wayland Seminary here. Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon from Berean Baptist Church of which she was a member for many years. Rev. D. F. Rivers, pastor, conducted the rites with the assistance of Rev. Walter Brooks, pastor of the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church. Interment was at Harmony Cemetery. Pallbearers for the occasion were Dr. Summer Wormley, Dr. John Washington, Dr. Joseph B. Cherry, J. F. M. Wilkinson, Everett Bailey, and Albert Knort. Surviving the former teacher are two daughters, Mrs. Edith M. Clayton, of 1515 S street, and Mrs. Evelyn Vanderhoop, of Gay Head, Massachusetts, and three grandchildren, Helm Vanderhoop, and Richard and Eeryl Clayton. 376 Negro Newspapermen In United States (CNS)—Negro: engaged in the profession of journalism total only 376 in the United States, according to statistics just released by the Bureau of the Census. This number is in comparison with the 51-468 white editors and reporters employed in journalistic pursuits. The number, however, represents an increase over the figure of 251 for 1920 and 171 for 1910. In 1930 Negro women so engaged numbered 76; in 1910 only 13 were listed as journalists, and in 1920 only 29. FAMILY OF THREE INJURED IN AUTO MISHAP ON ROAD FAMILY OF THREE INJURED IN AUTO MISHAP ON ROAD Parents And Child, 4, In Undetermined Condition At Hospitals A family of three was in Freedmen's Hospital early this week as a result of an automobile accident on the Crane Highway about 20 miles from Washington late Sunday afternoon. Members of the family, Roswell Pinckney, 35, insurance agent of the North Carolina Mutual Company, his wife, Edna Pinckney, 35, and their daughter, Dora, 4, all of Fairmont Heights, Maryland were brought to Freedmen's Hospital Monday after being given first aid treatment at Casualty Hospital the day before. Pinckney who is also an employee of the State-War Department suffered lacerations of the scalp, contusions of the neck and shock while his wife who was the most seriously injured sustained lacerations of the face and forehead and internal injuries. The child received concussions of the right leg, contusions of the legs and cuts about her forehead. At a late hour Wednesday hospital physicians described Mrs. Pinskney's condition as undetermined while the other two were improved. Mr. Pinckney's brother, Dr. Theodore Pinckney, and their mother who were also passengers in the car escaped serious injury. The group were returning to the city along with his brother-in-law, Herbert Nichols and several other friends in another machine. As the two cars approached Marlboro, the machine being driven by his brother-in-law which was traveling in front was side-swiped by another car on the opposite side of the road. The latter machine swerved behind the first car and collided head-on with Mr. Pinckney's automobile. Both cars were damaged badly. The driver of the third machine was later arrested by Marlboro police and charged with reckless driving and intoxication. The other passengers also escaped injury. 5-Year-Old Boy Sustains Skull Fracture In Fall While playing on his back porch, little five-year-old Joseph Brice, of 1307 First street, northwest, fell two stories to the ground, sustaining serious injuries. The boy was taken to Freedmen's Hospital where doctors found him to be suffering with a fracture of the skull. He was later transferred to Gallinger Hospital for further treatment.

VIRGINIA MOB CREMATES BODY AFTER LYNCHING MARKHAM, Va.—Despite the fact that the body of Shadrack Thompson was found hanging from the limb of an apple tree here Thursday night with all of the evidence of having been lynched, Coroner George Davs, after viewing the remains declared that the man committed "suicide." Some of the crowd lighted a match to the swinging body and set it afire. This was done after the alleged discovery. There was evidence that gasoline had been poured on the body. Usual "Attack" Alibi The usual crime of an "attack" on a white man and his wife, was attributed to Thompson. Early on June 12 Thompson is alleged to have beaten Henry L. Baxley, and his wife, of Hume, Va., while they slepe in a first-floor room of their farmhouse. Baxley was said to have been beaten into unconsciousness and his wife dragged from the house and left in a semi-conscious condition a half mile away. The body of Thompson was badly decomposed and the coroner expressed the "belfire" that the man had hanged himself after the "attack." Following the alleged "attack" on the Baxleya a search was conducted for Thompson. Baxley reported the "attack" when he regained consciousness and missed his wife. "Jumped" Off Rock Pile A pile of rocks were found under the hanging body and Commonwealth Attorney Carter expressed the opinion that Thompson" had taken" his own life shortly after the "attack and" piled up the stones, stood on them, then tied a rope around his neck and jumped off the pile, despite the fact that it would have been much more logical for the man to have climbed up the tree and jumped down rather than pile up a heap of stones. The rope found around the man's neck "was identified" as having been in Thompson's possession the day before the "attack." A posse with ropes searched the surrounding country for Thompson shortly after the "attack." They came back claiming that the man could not be found. It is evident by fair-minded persons here that the posse lynched Thompson after finding him. MAYOR SEES MAN LYNCHED BY MOB IN YARD OF JAIL MAYOR SEES MAN LYNCHED BY MOB IN YARD OF JAIL CROSSETT, Ark.—A mob of 500 whites lynched Frank Tucker, 24, in the Ashley County jail here Thursday night for an alleged attack on a deputy city marshal with a knife. The marshal, Henry Reed, was cut slightly about the neck and is not seriously injured. Tucker was arrested in connection with the theft of $10 from the Bank of Crossett. He was employed and said he needed the money for food. He was being held in Mayor I. M. Barnes' office with another man. The officers were threatening Tucker and were said to have been beating him to make him confess when the man attempted to defend himself from the police attacks. After running from the office to the street Tucker was captured by a mob of whites, a rope placed around his neck, led down Main street; to the jail yard and hanged. Although the mayor and other "prominent whites" witnessed the lynching, no one was arrested. , | f i ' : . i 186 1Twelfth Street, N. W. . pet (Y. MLC, A.

(CNS)—A novel suit in equity and law, in- volving @ principle vital to Negro artisans: pelonkthy to railroad. or other unions, was tried here last week, Declaring a violation of his seniority rights on the part of the railroad company, Harrison Bruce, Negro fireman, sued the Atlantic Coastline Railway Company for $10,000. The suit is similar to three others filed: last spring. by Negro firemen. The contention of Bruce and other Negro firemen and railroad employees is that he was émployed under an agreemént enteced into between the company and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire- men, of which he was a member, This agreement provided that the oldest fireman, in point of service, if capable, should be given work in preference to juniors in service or else be paid an amount equal to their earnings if they were not called for duty . Bruce declared ‘that he entered the service of the company as a fireman on March 30, 1923 under a_contract dated October 3, 1922. He was assigned for duty between Richmond and Rocky Mount, N. C, until July. 4, 1929. At this time a slack in employment needs led to the necessity of dismissing some firemen, Bruce was dismissed and white members of the union, who were his juniors. in point of ‘serv- ice were retained in violation of the contract agreement. "He claims that he would have earned about 5280 a month from the time he was Jaid off with the exception ef about three months. Prejudice Shown ‘The Bruce suit ix interesting be- core tt has revealed the attempt of white employers to dismiss Ne- groex in preference to whites, re- gardless of union agreements whieh are supposed to cloak all members with equal security . In answer to the suit, the company contended that sinee Bruce entered the rervice, in 1927 an agreement was entered into with the Brother- hood of Locomotive Firemen to put Negro firemen in a different status from whites, and that there- fore the fact that white firemen, juniors to him, were retained could not enter into thé question of his dismissal; but instead, that only the retention of Negro juniors would render them liable for pay- ment .

Virginia, Indiana, New Jetsey, Maryland, Missouri, Kansas, Massachusetts, Delaware, Connecticut, Rhode Is- land, Kentucky, Tennessee and Cal- ifornis, States with a total of 219 eléctorial votes, are listed in the survey_as “highly doubtful.” In these States, it was pointed out, there was a combined population of 1,665,044 Negroes of 21 years of age and over, to whom campaign. ers of both parties will have to appeal. In many of these States where the Negro vote is compare- tively small in comparison’ to the total number of voters, the suryay shows that the strength of the in major parties ix so evenly divide that Negro voters hold the*balance of power, Massachusetts fe As an example, Massachusetts was cited. “Here,* states the mur. vey; the Negroes of voting ag numberéd 32,898 in 1930. o* normal increase jn the number of voters each year is two per cent Thos gt the present time a, fait estiniate ‘of the number of Negr voters in the State is 3,300, This tumbéer will seem amall when com pared with the total vote in. th State, but when it ix remembere: that in 1928 Massachusetts wen Democratic by a hare plutality 17,192, and it is realized that party lines thix year are even more nar rowly divided, it can be plainls ween that Negro voters in th State’ will do much to decide whic) Way the State’s 17 electorial vote: wil go. ‘The Harlem Aree Diseussing the State of Nev York, the analysis states: “Nev York, with 47 electorial votes, wai won in the last election by Preai [dent Hoover by a margin of 104, 481 votes. But in the Borough © Manhattan, where there were 224 670 Negroes of voting age in 1930 the Hoover vote war 186,396 to Smith yote of $17,227.

Under these cir- ‘cumstances Ohio is certainly a doubtful State and sentiment of ‘the over 200,000 Negro yoters re- sidifig there is no small portent of ‘which wax politcal winds will bow in the fail.’ In Kentucky, Tennessee and Mis- suori there is a sufficient number of Negro yoters to throw the elec- tion this November in either cal- umn they elect to go. The Negroés of Indiana and Michigan may be a factor in the Noyember slection. A Negro is running for Congress in Michigan. Change of Sentiment Although Pennsylvania and Ilin- ois are not listed as doubtful States, “any sudden change of sentiment on. the part of white voters because. of such issues as prohibition, farm rélief or the bonus, will place the Negroes in these States in key position also,” states the survey. In such South- ern Statés ax North Carolina, Tex- as, and Oklahoma, where the acti- vity of the Negro électorate has een heightened during’ the Jat two. years, it is pointed out, that whilé the full Negro voting streng- | th will not be martialed in these localities, it is well to expect that thousands of Negroes will vote and that this “may well show in No- vember # resiilt which cannot now. be adequately predicted.” “An element in the equasion of Negro voting strength, which has not been fully realized, has been the phenomenal increase of Negro voters to be found on the registration books of large urban centers,” declares the study. “In the city of Baltimore, a recent po- lice census, indicates that while whites anti Negroes ate on a ratio of five to oné by population, the ratio of the number of new ‘tig: ble voters is only three to one. The activity of the National Associa- tion for the Advancement of Color- ad People in opposing ‘pro-Parker Senators’, the increasing influence of the Negro press, the increase in literacy are but a few of many elements which have conspired to awaken the Negro electorate and eause greater concern among Ne- gro man and women about casting ‘their ballots.” No Color Line In Contract Bridge Colored Players Find (CNS)—Negroes are not al- lowed to take” part in national tennis or golf matches, but con- tract bridge will know no_ color line if the plans of the Musolit Club here to enter & team in the National Bridge Association tour- nament mature.

The ceremonies started at noon and lasted until late in the afternoon. After the service the group left for evening services which are held under a tent in the 2500 block of Sherman avenue. Many spectators balked when they first touched the chilly waters, but they soon gained confidence and with the singing of spirituals the converts forgot the water in the estacy of religious fervor.

We sincerely welcome Mrs. Hughes as the chief lady of our area. In conclusion permit me to say that physically the Washington District is bounded on the north by the Sugar-Loaf Mountain, on the South by the Chesapeake Bay, on the West by the historic Potomac River, and on the east by the Crane Highway. But figuratively it is bounded on the north by undying love for Bishop William F. McDowell for his labors of love in our behalf, on the west by Robert F. Coates, that able administrator, J. W. E. Bowen, W. A. C. Hughes, the ablest Negro statesman and preacher of the Methodist Episcopal Church and forty-three other devoted ministers of the Gospel, on the east by eighty-seven churches, and 9000 loyal and devoted Methodists, and on the south by Bishop Edwin Holt Hughes and family to whom the north, east, and west extend a cordial welcome and pledge him their unstinted loyalty, co-operation, love, and devotion. Bishop Hughes who has been a friend of the Negro, said that he was born in West Virginia and paid a glowing tribute to the progress the Negro has made and also to his loyalty as a citizen of this country. Among many good things, Bishop Hughes said, "If there is any group of people entitled to be 100 per cent Americans it is the American Negro." Speaking of domestic relations the bishop said, "If you men will listen more to your wives, I am sure you will have a happy home." Among the other speakers were Rev. A. H. Whitfield, Rev. E. A. Love, Rev. Edgar A. Hall, Rev. Thomas N. Austin, Prof. Alfred A. Dixon, J. O. Spencer, president of Morgan College; Rev. B. Meeks, and H. E. Woolener, editor of the National Methodist Press. Mrs. Hughes was presented a beautiful bunch of flowers by Miss Hazel Mitchell of Baltimore, and Bishop Hughes was presented a fine brief case by Miss Georgetta White of Washington. Miss Lillian Davis sang "Open the Gates of the Temple." The church was packed and about 500 attended the reception held in the basement following the program. Brother Walter C.

There Are 87 Churches With 9,000 Members In the Washington Conference Succeeding the beloved Bishop William Frazier M.Dowell as resident bishop of the Washington Conference of the M. E. Church, Bishop Edwin Holt Hughes was tendered a formal welcome at Asbury M. E. Church, Tuesday night. The bishop and his wife and daughter were present and were introduced to the audience. A lengthy program was rendered with District Superintendent Robert F. Coates, presiding. Music was furnished by the choir of the Metropolitan M. E. Church of Baltimore. Rev. R. M. Williams, pastor of Asbury, delivered the best of the many speeches. He said: "It becomes my pleasant task, Bishop Hughes, to welcome you to the home district of the Washington area. Therefore, on behalf of eighty-seven churches and missions, 46 effective preachers, sixty local preachers, 9000 members, 700 preparatory members, 7000 Sunday School children, I welcome you with all the feeling of which my race is competent. It becomes your happy privilege, if I might term it that, to step into the shoes of your warm personal friend—that scholar of scholars, that preacher of preachers, that able administrator and parliamentarian, withal a friend, a brother among his brethren, a friend to the lowly, a God-sent blessing to the Negro—Bishop William Fraser McDowell, Bishop McDowell has, like a pilot, guided the Washington Area for sixteen years; he is known and loved by men of all races and faiths. We fully realized, 'ere the General Conference, that there was no man on the Board of Bishops more competent to take the helm of our great ship and guide it into deeper waters of spiritual intensity, financial competency, and brotherly understanding than you, Bishop Hughes. Your record is as clear as the morning star, as inspiring as the purple flush of morning, as clean as untilten snow, as fragrant, as a rose and as beautiful as a western set. First a struggling student, a humble pastor, a college president, and is one of the most successful bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church serving the San Francisco, Boston, Chicago Areas, and now, after a such wide experience you come to share it with the greatest area of the Methodist Episcopal Church—the Washington Area. Who has not read your books? Who has not read your speeches and addresses? Who does not know of your platform and administrative abilities? But, withal, who has not heard of your friendship for the black man? By pen, by voice, on the platform or behind closed doors, in season and out of season, you have consistently and persistently championed the rights of your black brother. The black man, regardless of denominational affiliation, has loved you long and ardently for your labors of love in his behalf. The Washington Area and Washington Conference had their eyes on thee. O! Nathaniel, one in whom there is truly no guile, WARNS. FATHER OF NINE Chicago Man Makes Important Statement Regarding Family Health Medical leaders say that men are losing their vigor and strength at an early age now due to improper living and run-down organs. Mr. Lindsey of Chicago, the hearty, vital father of 9 lusty children, wants to tell all his friends and neighbors the secret of maintaining health and manly vigor. "At fifty," says Mr. Lindsey, "a man should be in his prime, not weak and unhealthy like a lot I know. When a man reaches a certain age he should take something once in a while to keep the THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1932 Trinity Baptist Church and stimulant is needed. It should stir the system to new life and activity. This famous prescription is easy to take and contains pure pepsin, active senna and fresh herbs of known tonic value.

The director of the voice department had full charge, but in the near future he will have two assistants who will take different sections of the chorus in two other studios in an effort to do more effective and personal work. The Gospel Singers Association which will meet each Thursday night is open to all who are interested in singing gospel songs with the idea of rendering programs at various churches for the benefit of charitable cases. Mr. Cherry is a very capable teacher of voice and knows how to develop a chorus, and will give personal help to church choirs as occasion permits in the new plan of the Williams Institute of Music to help spread gospel singing in the churches of the District of Columbia and vicinity. "Those who sing or who are interested in gospel singing are invited to be present at our rehearsals, even though you do not care to sing. Come and lend us your moral influence to help by gospel singing to make Washington a better place in which to live," is an appeal made by Mr. Williams.

A game was _a tie, “Tiggie” as he is known to his teammates, was the one bright star when defeat seemed most ¢¢r- tain, and although he was not vest- ed with the supernatural power tc Ee his mates through each time did however pull the game out of the fire, so to speak, on more than one occasion.

It would be a Yather perplexing task to tell of the remaining attainments of Ralph just by way of contrast, in x ut-shell. In paragraph form follow his leadership record: >layed in every game fram one through twenty, never missing an inning; banged cut the most safeties, 31; crossed the counting block the most times, 20; and pilfered the most sacks, 30. In addition to these feats ne tied up the hard-hitting Mr, Smart for home run banners, each garnering four. Ralph Stripling Now Ralph was not alone in the limelight, being pushed for honors in several instances, Still in most cases he was well ahead of his second and third place rivals. For instance Ruddy Stripling, plucky shortatoprer, performing in his ini tial season with the Post nine or 7 iohier for tit matter, as, a ular, really doing a nice jo! for a vealiaer ‘was neck and neck with his teammate in most games played in. ‘Stripling also took hon- ors in three-baggers, garnering two, Midget Pcwell, another Teach- €ts”. College cohort, and a putlignt fielder, tied Nat Randolph for run- ner-up honors in most runs scored, gach baving 18 to their credit while the formet followed Tignor in stglen bases with @ tidy twenty. ndoiph again came to the febnt to capture second position in st hits with twenty-five, while i pal, Alfred Smart, was third with one less. a Leads Two-baggers iekey Stri lign, stellar back- 5 ‘walked of with first place “most doubles, whacking out six, ‘Smart and Webb followed a else second with five.

Wilbur Washington Wilbur Washington, after get- ting off to a good start, fell by the wayside but made a’ remark- able comeback to retain his hurling henors of 1930-31, He was downed iy & quartet of frays, but went one étter in his win column. As is his custom he was the strikeout king, causing sixty-one, no more, Re less, potential batters to whiff in eleven games. Trying to bal- ance this column, he suffered from an attack of wilditis, giving up twenty-two bases on’ balls, which imsincidenty, also an old Washing- toh family custom. * «Name ... G. AB. R. H.

TRIBUNE TO FOSTER BASKETBALL, LEAGUE ~The followers of the hardwood will seelenty ‘of action this winter when the Tribune basketball league gets under way. The first loop will be formed of clubs in the unlimited class. A junior league will be organized if enough teanjs in that division enter. I recall several outstanding basketball players who cavoted in the old Baltimore league of some few years ago. This loop was composed entirely of juniors and practically every boy made good when he en- tered college. Cab Calloway was a star forward on the Grace Boys Club, @ member of the Baltimore league. Jerome Wood, his running mate, was captain of Howard’s basketball team a few years ago. Other boys who made good after outgrowing the league were “Chink” Wyatt, Baltimore Anthenian player; Hunt, who starred at Hampton; Diggs, at West Virginia; Campbell, gt Hampton, and Jack Spencer at Morgan. | ALEXANDRIA, Va. — The Roamer A.C. of this city is prac- tiefng nightly for a strenious sea- son with strong Virginia, Mary- land and Washington teams.

It is expected that at least twenty more will report within the next week. Although most of the men reporting have been out before, there seems to be much promising new material. Among those making their bids for positions of the eleven will be several letter men of last year. Farmer, third string man of last season, will be in the running for center. The return of both Rivers and Unthank "All C.I.A.A. guards" of last year, makes the guard problem an almost solved one. It will be difficult, of course, to fill the gap left by "Thunderbolt" Gaines, but unless a "dark horse" appears, the fight for this vacant tackle berth will be waged chiefly between Parham and Shelton, products of last year's "Tech" team. In the battle for the wing positions will be White, Bell and Crockett, all letter men of last year. Beam and Portfield Harris, first and second string quarterbacks of last season, have both returned and are seeking the assignment of field general. Lawson, third string quarter, is not returning. The other backs who will be expected to see action will be Edwards, plunging fullback; "Hi Harris, Lafate, and "Cutes" Carter. With only one week left before the opening game with North Carolina State on October first, the coaches are facing the difficult problems that always come with organizing a team in a short time.

THE SPIKED SHOE By THE OBSERVER On a comparison of various teams in competitive play for the year the outstanding club from this columnist's view point is Greenlee's Pittsburgh Crawfords. This takes in consideration the number of clubs played, the calibre of teams and conditions under which games were played. The standard of play this year under trying circumstances has not been a great deal lower than in baseball's heyday. The Kansas City Monarchs have made a wonderful record this year, but the calibre of teams played has been inferior to those played by the other leading clubs. The Homestead Grays, always in the front rank of the leading clubs, have had a very spotty year due to the fact that the personnel of the team has changed three times during the year. The record compiled by the club this year has been remarkable in view of these circumstances. The New York Black Yankees have played wonderful baseball this year. The club had a great pair of pitchers in Connie Rector and "Wild Bill" Holland. Larry Brown, catcher, was largely responsible for the fine showing of the team. The Baltimore Black Sox has not been a strong team in all departments of play this year as in previous seasons, but the team represented a wonderful defensive. This year has produced some new players who have performed creditably throughout the season. Among them are Johnson, O'Bryant, Hampton, H. Williams, Terry, Brown, Troupe, Hunter, Hughes, and Jake Dunn. The Washington Pilots as assembled by Frank Warfield was the newest combination to enter the baseball field. The club made a good showing for a first year combination. If the same aggregation that represented the club at the time of Warfield's death is retained as a nucleus they will have a formidable aggregation for future competition. REFORMATION LADS DEFEAT BLUE SOX A last-minute rally which netted a lone marker was enough to overcome Mickey Stripling and the Washington Blue Sox, 5 to 4, Sunday, on the premises of the House of Reformation, by the lads of that institution. Behind the masterful slab work of Sam Westfield, the Washingtonians had put up a dazzling scrap to down their Cheltenham rivals and had met with success. Two tallies in the fourth frame and a like number in the fifth had put the Blue Sox in front by a slim margin of one run.

PIN BOYS PROTEST WAGE CUT WT “IV MOESTRNE The “great importance. of the hither-to-unimportant pin boys in the game of bowling, something “the average player of .the game never gave a thought to, was made forcefully apparent early this:week when over 200 pin boys went on a city-wide strike in protest of the cutting of their wages from four cents a game to three cents. ‘The strike evidently well-planned and organized, went into effect just as the bowling season entered into full swing and the league matches were about to get underway. At the two U street alleys, owned and operated by white persons, but whose patrons are colored, the managers were faced with a two- fold proposition. "At the Lincoln ‘Colonnade alfeys and the Masonic “Temple alleys, the pin'boys started a strike last Week. At both alleys, ‘the managers were’ faced with ‘the “Moss of business if cut-rate pin boys ‘were hired, as the patrons ‘of’ the ‘places would refuse to play, know- ing that the pin boys were’ being ander paid. In order to avert this, “both managers agreed to pay ‘the regu'ar four cents a game, and the \pin bors were back at work ‘the “tiext ‘day. Besides these two al- ‘ leys, only two others in the city, the Recreation Bowling Alleys and the Queen Pin Alleys in Southeast are reported to be paying the so- called regular rate. “Recruits Substitutes <” At the other downtown alleys the “pin boys are in the rut. Just as “the league matches were about to . start Monday might. at, the Conven- tion Hail, twenty-eight. boys” went “on a.strike.

Upon arrival of the strike-break- + ers 18 of the strikers repented.-and “asked for their jobs back, and po- “lige protection from their more {militant,Jeaders. Bell rehired the "18; arranged for their protection, sand the matches at the world’s + largest: single-floored-bowling alley were underway fifteen minutes af- ter the scheduled time. “Bell, in explaining the wage ‘ut, said it was in line with a general move- * ment to lower the operating costs ‘at the hall. = Boys’ Side of Situation © According to the story related by Wendell ‘. De Bose, ex-pin boy “of the Arcadia Alleys, a meeting was held in July at’ the Lucks “Strike Bowling Alleys, at which * time owners of the local drives de “eided to cut the pin boys.

Clyde \ USED CARS SIXTEEN EIGHT "SCIENTIFIC MIRACLES" FOR NOBEL PRIZE Reminiscent of the X-Ray in the scope of its possibilities is the newly perfected hydrogenation process, which won the Nobel Chemistry Prize last year. The famous discovery, which attracted world-wide interest in scientific circles when it was first announced, now promises to become a highly important factor in the field of industry. At least eight, what might be termed, "scientific miracles" are claimed for hydrogenation. A safety fuel, used in the regular gasoline engines of airplanes and motorboats and which will not explode even if you drop lighted matches and cigarettes into it, is one of the most interesting discoveries. Hydrogenation has already been used in Germany during the war for the manufacture of ammonia and explosives. The Standard Oil Company of New Jersey's plant at Bayway, N.J., could be converted for this purpose in case of national emergency. Nitrate fertilizers are another accomplishment. Dyes—which, like fertilizers and ammonia, have been made by the I. G. Farbenindurte or German Dye Trust—make a fourth. A new motor oil, which for the first time satisfies all five lubrication requirements of the modern automobile engine, is the most valuable recent accomplishment of hydrogenation. The product, which is called "Bessolbe," was announc- A. E. REV. R. H. DIXON, noted evangelist, of Cincinnati, Ohio; who will begin a revival at Asbury M. E. Church, Sunday. Rev. R. M. Williams is pastor. ed here last month by the Stand- may revolutionize automobile coat Oil Company of New Jersey. Still another achievement of the process is a line of hydrogenated solvent naphthas, expected to find a market in the paint, lacquer, rubber and artificial leather industries. Particularly, they are believed to make possible the further development of synthetic resin finishes greatly superior to lacquer, which may revolutionize automobile coatings. An anti-knock blending agent, intended chiefly for expert consumption, is a further discovery. Should the world ever run dry of its petroleum reserves — not an unlikely event some day — gasoline and other products could be made from coal, shale and lignite by means of hydrogenation.

NEW STUDY SHOWS RISE AND FALL OF NEGRO IN POLITICS NEW YORK (CNS)—The Oxford University Press here has just published an interesting history of Negro suffrage and white politics in the South by Paul Lewinson, entitled, "Race, Class and Suffrage." The book traces in detail the rise and fall of the Negro ballot holder's power and cites thoroughly documented reasons for this condition. Showing that the economic status of the large slave class in antebellum days caused continued rivalry between the Negro and the poor white, Professor Lewinson gave an interesting analysis of the overtures made by both the poor whites and the former Bourbon slaveholders to the Negro, who held the balance of power in early post war days. In the '90s, however, a new alignment on the basis of race distinction rather than class rivalry was made and the Negro's power was steadily diminished, according to the writer. This gradual shifting of the Negro out of the Southern political equation, pointed out Professor Lewinson, has been accomplished despite the 18th Amendment, through the Grandfather Clause, the Democratic Primary, and by means of property and literacy tests, the last being especially severe when applied to Negroes. Although playing an insignificant role in local and State politics Negroes continue to exert considerable influence in national affairs. Since 1920 certain liberalizing factors have been at work tending to increase the Negro's political power, according to the study. Interracial movements, the economic and educational advances of the Negro are cited as elements softening the opposition to Negro franchise. But Professor Lewinson concludes that in spite of these factors, the Negro is in the main voeless; and the fear of Negro political domination is easily aroused. This fear prevents the white South from accepting Negro into democratic primaries; and counteracts any tendency of economic issues to cause a shift in lytical forces from a racial to a class basis.

(CNS)—Grave doubt exists as to the guilt of the four surviving defendants under indictment for the alleged criminal assault upon Mrs. Thalia Massie in the so-called Ala Moana case, here, and of Joseph Kakarawai, the fifth defendant murdered by Lieutenant Thomas Massie of the United States Navy, husband of the victim of the alleged attack, her mother, Mrs. Grarville Fortescue, and two navy enlisted men following an investigation conducted during the past four months by Pinkerton operatives, it was learned last week. Although details of the report made by John G. Fraser, in charge of the Pinkerton investigation on the island, have been carefully guarded, it has been characterized by those it has acquainted with the facts uncovered as "startling evidence which may completely change the opinions of the public on the United States mainland with respect to the case." It is believed that it will reveal that criticism to which Hawaiian officials have been subjected for their delay in disposing of the case and of their action in trying the Massie case, has been unduly harsh. The report will be submitted to Territorial Governor Lawrence M. Judd on October 3, in New York. Territorial Governor Harry Hewitt and John C. Kelly. Honolulu prosecutor, will be with the governor when he receives the report. They are now en route to the United States from Hawaii. Mr. Kelly announced before sailing that he and Governor Judd would lay the report of the Pinkerton operative before Secretary of Interior Ray Lyman Wilbur, after their New York conference. Deny Guilt The four defendants accused of attacking Mrs. Massie one year ago are waiting re-trial, the jury having disagreed. They have steadfastly denied their guilt although every legitimate pressure has been brought to bear upon them. When none of the island's law enforcement agents seemed to be able to unravel the mystery, Governor Judd decided to go outside official sources to seek a solution. Fraser conducted the case here, while two other Pinkerton operatives have been engaged in a similar inquiry in the United States concerning Mrs. Massie, Mrs. Fortescue and the three white sailors convicted with her of Kakahawa's murder. It is rumored that the Pinkerton investigation will lead to the nole proxessing of the charges against the four living defendants. Leutenant Massie, who is now attached to the U. S. S. New Mexico in the Philadelphia Navy Yard, his conviction not having affected his status in the navy, has recently, announced that his wife, who speedily left the island to avoid a court subpoena, is now willing to return to the island to aid in the prosecution. He did not indicate that he would return with her, however. CHILLICLOTHE, OHIO Over 160 persons were present at the reunion of the Lees-Walker at City park last week . R. C.

Miss Garrett is a native of Madison County, Miss, and was heard over Station WRC in Washington Wednesday during the National Farm and Home hour from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. Miss Garrett's trip to Washington is being financed by the 4-H Club members of the lover tier of southern states. The funds were collected from 4-H Club members under the leadership of farm and demonstration agents in these states. This summer when the United States Department of Agriculture Extension Service announced a contest for members of the 4-H Club to determine who would speak on their radio program at Washington, D.C., Miss Garrett submitted a paper. Pro the hundreds of papers submittit, she was announced the winner. Campbell Speers T. M. Campbell, United States Field Agent for the Iwer tier of southern states, on th same program delivered an adress. The talk was a presentation of the Association of Land-Grant Colleges and Universities in cooperation with the United States Army Band, and the National Broadcasting Company. Mr. Campbell also spoke on the subject of "Carrying the school to the Farmer." In this talk he described the activities of the "Booker Washington Movable School." The movable school idea was first advocated by Booker T. Washington. About twenty-one years ago the first school of this type was instituted by Tuskegee. Later this idea, as projected by Tuskegee Institute, was taken over by the United States Department of Agriculture. The present modern truck and movable school equipment was donated by over 30,000 farmers. The purpose of the school is to give the farmers such practical information as will enable them to become more productive, as well as to enable them to improve the conditions of their homes and community. The school carries three workers; a home demonstration agent, a farm demonstration agent, and a trained nurse. Mr. Campbell has been engaged in this type of extension work for the past thirty years.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE AMERICAN WOMAN IS IMPRISONED IN CZECHOSLOVAKIA Mrs. Ada Wright, Mother Of Two Scottsboro Boys Held In Jail Three Days By Ada Wright (This is the first extended article that Mrs Ada Wright, mother of two of the Scottsboro boys, has ever written. When she was jailed in Klondo, Czechoslovakia, on September 3, held in jail three days, and then expelled from the country, she sat down and wrote the following article, and mailed it to the International Labor Defense.) I am willing to make every possible sacrifice to save my two boys, Roy and Andy, from death in the electric chair. I am not strong. My health has been undetermined by life-long and difficult toil. I have brought seven children into the world and did my best for them. I am now more than 46 years old. It is, therefore, not possible for me to do as much as I would like to save the lives of my two children and the other Scottsboro boys. I never dreamed that I had the strength to make a seven months' tour of the United States and then to cross the Atlantic and for more than four months now to "carry on" in the European Scottsboro campaign. There have been many difficulties. But my love for my two sons, the ever clinging desire and hope to see them free again, and very soon, with all the Scottsboro boys, with the growing desire, that I did not understand 17 months ago, to achieve something for my race and my class, have kept me strong. I grew to understand the police attacks upon our meetings. I could even understand my being expelled twice from Belgium, a country which tyrannizes ever so many millions of my people in the Congs, in Africa. Sent to Prison But I didn't think that they would ever send me to jail and to prison, just for trying to save the lives of my two sons. Yet I have just been in police stations, jails and prisons for three long days and endless nights, that seemed to me like ages of horrible torture. I have never been in prison in my life. I never expected to be. I admit I have a fearful horror of police stations and jails. Yet, I have been to prison in our struggle to save the Scottsboro boys. And, I will say now, that I am willing to go again, and for a longer time if it will help the cause in which so many millions of workers are struggling. They arrested me at Klodno, in the coal fields near Prague, in Czechoslovakia. I had never heard of Czechoslovakia, or of Prague, or Klodno, before they were included in our European Scotsboro tour. But the workers here were just like the workers that I saw in the twelve other countries I had visited. One woman comrade who greeted me at Klodno had been a delegate to the Amsterdam Anti-War Congress. They told me that Klodno was the birthplace of Anthony J. Cermak, the democratic mayor of Chicago. He had been to Klodno only a few weeks previously. He had been acclaimed by the government and feasted by its officials. I remember Mayor Cermak's police in Chicago murdered two of my people, shooting them down in the streets, during an unemployed demonstration against the eviction from their homes of some jobless Negro workers. I have heard much more about the police terror in Chicago. That makes it easier for me to understand why I should be arrested by the friends of Chicago's mayor in Klodno, over here in Czechoslovakia in Europe. Accused Falsely I was arrested before I ever spoke at or even reached the Klodno meeting. They dragged me off to the police station and tried to terrorize me into admitting that I was trying to carry on Communist propaganda. They tried to get me to say that I intended talking "politics", and that I was trying to interfere with the local conditions in Klodno. I told them I didn't know anything about conditions in Klodno, that I didn't know enough yet to talk politics, and that I felt I didn't know enough yet about Communism to be a good Communist. At first they said they would release me after the meeting, which went on without me, was over. But they lied. They announced instead they would lock me up for the night. I demanded the right to go to a hotel and said I would pay for it with my own money. This they refused me. It was No longer is it necessary for a woman to be so weak she has to stay at home and miss the good things of life because she suffers pain. No matter how sickly and worn-out you might be, how unpopular; and unhappy you are now, you can be a strong, healthy, robust woman, just as popular and appealing as any woman you know. And here's how easy it is FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1932 Hundreds Of Thousands Hear Negro Mother Speak A. MRS. ADA WRIGHT mother of Ray and Andy Wright, who has addressed hundreds of thousands of European workers in fifteen countries, on behalf of the nine Scottsboro boys whose case comes up before the U. S. Supreme Court October 10. Seven of these Negro boys have been convicted on framed charges and sentenced to die in the electric chair for "rape" of two white prostitutes. Mrs. Wright has spent the last five months touring Europe under the auspices of the International Labor Defense, with J. Louis Engdahl; general secretary of the organization, and has stirred a huge international protest against the lynch verdict of the American courts in the Scottsboro case. One of her sons, Andy, 18, faces the electric chair, unless the U. S. Supreme Court reverses the sentences October 10. Roy Wright, 13, has been granted a new trial by the Alabama Supreme Court. one o'clock in the morning when they put me into a cell and locked me up. Some of the comrades had remained close to me all this time. But they were forced at last to say, "Good Night!" At that moment I never felt so much alone in all my life. I admit that I nearly broke down and cried. Sheds No Tears But in that very same moment I resolved not to shed a single tear in any boss class jail or prison. And I didn't, although the two nights following were even worse than the first. The next day they took me to Prague and the police grilling continued. They wanted me to leave the country "voluntarily", and immediately. I told them I had committed no wrong and would fight for my right to stay. I talked it over in prison with Comrade Engdahl and our lawyer, Litraha, who worked night and day demanding of President Masryak and of his minister of the interior, Skayik. I be allowed to remain and carry through the tour of ten mass meetings that had been arranged. Sunday night I spent in the Prague police station fighting off the bugs and vermin. I shall never forget. And the next day, Labor Day in the United States, September 5, I was taken to the Fispan Prison where deportees are intermed before being sent out of the country: Instead of releasing me, the interior minister, through his own paper, called me a "Bolshevik Negro Woman", in big headlines, and "A Black Communist." Took Money Away But the women in the prison just loved me. I divided with them all the things the comrades brought me. The comrades gave me money to buy things to eat, whatever I needed. But the prison officials got their hands on the money and kept it. So on the fourth day they sent me out of the country with Comrade Engdahl declaring we were "undesirable foreigners." They told me that T. G. Masaryk, president of the Czechoslovakian republic, was at one time—when Hohenzollern and Hapsburg ruled in Germany and Australia and there was no Czechoslovakian Republic—professor in the University of Chicago, which I have heard called the Rockefeller Standard Oil University. Everyone knew of the Ludlow Massacre of women and children in the strikers' tent colony when the coal miners went on strike against Rockefeller's Colorado Fuel and Iron Company. I was wondering if Masaryk was preparing such a massacre for the coal miners of Klodno. Going to prison for the first time has startled me thinking about many things. On to Austria The police accompanied us on the train as far as the Austrian border to see that we were safely out of the country. The Austrian comrades greeted and herbs.

Chicas, New ork, Los Angeles a an wr y FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1932 2 HOME IMPROVEMENT America has justly been called a home-loving nation. "The home, like the church and school, has been recognibed as one of the most fundamental of our human institutions. And being a human institution it is affected by the changing con- ditions, Because of this fact we need a national home im- provement association, That is the oné national organiza- tion that has untold possibilities for the Negro. From a tabulation of 1930 census on home owning and renting we find that the Negro owns less than twenty-five per cent of the homes in which he lives. We cannot hope to keep up our progress as a race unless we can increase our home ownership. Our homes must be convenient and comfortable, how- ‘ever modest they may be, they must be places of beauty. Our homes must provide daily training in wise planning, co- operation and be of service to others. Since our homes have not attained that status, the need for a national organization having for its sole-purpose the securing of more homes and the raising of the standards in home life and beautification, is evident. The first object should be the purchasing of a home and this national organization should have a department to ren- der’a building and loan service. There should be a, department giving special attention to buildings and grounds, where home planning, beautifying of lawns, yards and gardens along with remodeling and im- provement of buildings could be stressed. There should be a legal advice service to untangle and iron out the many problems arising in the various cities and states. Refinancing, loans, wills, contracts, etc., all have their problems for the home owner. This service alone would prove a big factor in home improvement. Since home owners are reliable consumers, this national organization should include a service similar to a house- wives league or consumers league with the view of coopera- tive buying clubs for all supplies of the home including fuel, paint, ete. And a section of this department could well give attention to domestic art and science with the view of ren- dering untold service-through home visitors to advise in be embroidering, quilting, balance rations, cooking, etc. fou would be surprised at the number of home makers today who cannot prepare and cook a decent meal. With gas and electrical eee for the home, it is necessary to have ad and even instructions to prepare and cook a honest-to-goodness meal. Much improvement is pos- le in this line. Then there is the important department of education, the library, the papers, the books, the magazines in the home. There is medical service, recreation and welfare, guidance and placement, all have their share in home improvement. To go over this rather comprehensvie outline for a home improvement organization we can readily see the woe- ful lack of homes and the real crying need for a national home improvement association. WERE THE DEMOCRATS SMART? Were the Democrats in Wisconsin smart or was it a general revolt against administrations which fail to give heed to the American instead of Big Business? In the defeat of Senator Blaine in Wisconsin it seems that the Democrats outwitted the Republicans. Did thou- sands of Democrats turn to the unknown editor, John B, Chapple and help nominate him because it will be easier to defeat him in November than it would to sock Senator Blaine? It seems so when we take into consideration the fact that the total vote for Chapple and Kohler exceeded that cast by the Democrats and the Republicans for Blaine. Since the defeat of La Follette for Governor and Blaine for the Senate, the sentiment is that the La Follette crowd will turn to Governor Roosevelt for President. Therefore, surmis- ing this, it appears that the Democrats of Wisconsin, out- witted the Republicans in Tuesday’s primaries, On the other hand the defeat of Governor La Follette and Senator Blaine may mean the general revolt against administrations which fail to relieve the people in times of stress, starting in Maine is sweeping westward and that many men now holding office, from President Hoover on down to county officials are doomed for the pink slip in November, YOU MUST RECISTER_ Ht you want te be treated like a citizen, you must act like one. If you are discontent with the way things are be- ing handled in local, State or Federal Government, there is no use complaining unless you intend to back up that com- Vgieed with your actual vote. For the business of politics one of “put up or shut up.” And, one of the reasons why the Negro electorate in many large centers is not given its fair share of patronage, is not considered in matters of civic inprovement, is because the men and women who comprise that electorate don’t care enough about their franchise to exercise it. There is today hardly a large city, North or South where Negroes may not vote. In the South intimidations still per- sists, it is true. But there is little question that in the larger cities of the South the Negro can vote in general elections. In the North and West there is not even a question of this right. But you cannot vote unless you register. -Above all things the Negro ballot holder should register and conform to the necessary requirements of his State election law. It is all very well to decide which candidate you will support and to be able to give profound reasons for your choice. But that mental effort will be fruitless, if on election day you find that you have neglected to register. Not only is it your duty to do this, but you ought see to it that your family and friends are also registered. Tt doesn’t matter so much how a man votes ‘as that he does vote. Once you get people in the habit of voting, they will learn soon enough not to waste their ballots by voting All the citizens living in Washington who maintain Tegal residence in the various should in to rite, dt mail. Dono pportunity pass to cast yong, ao KELLY MILLER Says: WHY THE NEGRO SHOULD DIVIDE HIS VOTE ON NATIONAL ISSUES I. The two outstanding parties have identically the same stand so far as the Negro’s rights and in- terests are concerned. | Party prin- ciples are laid down in thei) na- tional platforms, and cannot be judged by narrow local provincial passions and prejudices. The Re- publican Party wrote the Recon- struction Amendments into the Constitution and still avers that it stands by these principles. The Democratic platformn of 1876 ac: cepted the revised Constitution. Since then there has been no dif- ferent pronouncement or action contrary to this declaration, not even during the sixteen years when that party was in control of the national Government. In the pres- ent tense and active voice the Re- publican party does and says no- hing constructively in behaif of Shs Negro, The Demoesatie party dovs and says nothing. destructively against him. Speaking from @ broad national viewpoint, the atti- tude of the two have gravitated to equality, which I regret to say is near the zero point. “1 So far as the two Chicago Con- ventnions are concerned, the two platforms are identical in sub- ‘stance and vary only in phraseology. ‘The race has about as many well wishers in one camp as the other. I cite the lineup on the Moward University appropriation as proof of this assertion. IL. The voting contingent of the race is found in the Northern and border states, | We may as, well rule out of the universe of the Pyseent discourse the disfranchis- contingent in eight of the south- ern states. The annulment. of the black man’s constitutional rights in the lower South is affected by local contrivance and national con- nivance, The outcome of the No- vember election will not affect this condition one way or the other. There is no longer any force in the old arguthent that a Republican victory meant the restoration of the Negro’s guaranteed rights in the South, Whether Hoover. or ‘Roosevelt is elected in November, he will Jeave the sitgation on Mar. fourth, 1987, just whére he found it March fourth, 1933.

Neither has any copyright method, or infallible formuls. cover and Roosevelt are alike felihg after the better way, if haply either might find it. There is no use for all to line up on one side when both are groping in the dark. IV. The bulk of the Negro vot ers in the next election are under fifty years of age. They should DIGESTING THE NEWS _, Exactly six months ago the sub- ‘fect of this column was, “Introduc- ing A Daily,” and immediately thereafter various comments were noted in quite a few of our leading publications and by various writ- ers. Most of these comments ac- knowledged the, particular under taking but referred to it as an “experiment” and indicated that after a few weeks time the project would undoubtedly collapse, like the many other attempts at launching a daily. Of course , the daily referred to, is the Atlanta Daily World, pub- lished by the Southern Newspaper Syndicate, and while I do not pated the confidence of William A. Scott, the founder and owner of this en- terprise, I have through my regular releasing services , and through observation, been able to watch and record the progress of this new journalistic venture. ‘Apparently some of the obstacles in the path of operating sucessful Negro dailies arise in the excessive equipment cust and an enormous amount of technically skilled labor anless the equipment and the labor can be kept constantly busy. _ Pre- sumably, the cost of maintaining a news and feature ‘service sufficient for a daily is also Rie an item. Evén after these obstacles have bean surmounted there is the sll- important matter of circulation and prompt distribution to the readers. In order to lower & necessarily large equipment and labor cost the Southern Newgnaper Syndicate (SNS) have organized other Worl pers in nearby southern With the result. that these added papers require, but Tittle more ef to edit and publish than would ‘an extra edition of the Daily, mere- ye mastheads, » substitu: of t “local” news and the rearrangement of a few fea. features,~ strictly “local” ad- "Sthertfore, te agition to the At fore, Janta Daily’ We SNS also Bina want Mier orld, the: ‘World and the i rid, in addition Jackson, Mi ppi,» and. throw Bal eeees ae THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1937 vote according to their intelligence and not according toy their emo- tions. Hitherto, the crafty politi. cians, white and black, have sough' to psy upon the pees wullibilty and have steeineds him into the party yen like dumb driven cattle ‘he Northern Negrd voter finds that no other group allows itself to be thus stampeded; then why ghould he? Let the Negro vote for Hoover or for Roosevelt, if he thinks best. But he should not allow himself to be lured by the Lincoln lore or frightened by the Garner seare-crow. One can honor the principles of Lincoln as well by voting for Roosevelt as for Hoover. V. ‘The solid South and the solid Negro ate the bane of our national politics. Neither will make any ‘political progréss as long as they ‘remain under bondage of fear. The [Negro politicians will use che same tactics in 1932 as they used in 1882—herd the Negro into the Re- publican fold for fear of the Dem- geratic wolf, The race has made no more political progress in years than kiln dried’ timber. De Viding hetween parties, issues, men and measures will liberate minds nd make for political.growth and development. It will also liberalize both parties and make for advance: men all along the line. VI. On the ninth of November, one of two results will be an- nounced—either Hoover or Roose~ velt will have been elected. It will be better for the race as a whole, in either event, if his vote shall have been divided and shall have contributed substantially to the winning, side, (a) If | Roosevelt wins, which is not unlikely, the race will be greatly the gainer by helping to, bring about such a re- sult, Much of the Democratic hos- tility, which the race has hitherto incurred has been due to its solid anti-Democratie attitude. The rea- son that the Northern Democrats are so friendly to him is because he divides with him a portion of his ballots. (b) If Hoover should win, it would be far better for the Black brother if a check up showed that he received only half of his vote. The indifference of the pres- ent administration towards us is due to the fact that it received too many: votes, white and black, in 1928. Even if the Negroes voted unanimously for President Hoover the margin was too slight to appre- ciably affect the result. The N.A. A.C.P. is more influential in getting results than the, knuckle-close Newro politicians because it is non- partisan, and will throw the weight sf its influence against the admin- iatration when it goes awry, while the me-too politicians will ‘follow ¢ party right or wrong. Nobody respects a dog of a man ot a race that will stand kicks and rebuffs without resentment. ._.In the coming election the Negro has everything to gain and noting to lose by dividing his vote. ‘This enables the SNS to keep their costly equipment in constant use. A corps of skilled workers are kept constantly busy. The cost of securing national news and feautres can be pro-ratet among the several publications, while each local member of the afilliation can supply for the complete SNS ser viee all of the “local” coverage. ‘The SNS also publish a national feature, the Gravure Weekly, being the only one of its kind published by or for Negro publications. This feature has a combined circulation of around sixty thousand weekly and is used by over # score of pa- pers in nearly as many states. All ‘of which indicates that the subject of thin release could be entitled “Tt Can Be Done--and by Negroes.” BOOK REVIEW “WINGED THOUGHTS” Re Mere. Katherine Ashe 1441 Logan St., Denver, Colo.

Flipper Derricotte, Eéa. inaugurated and on Monday, March 4, 1929, our thirty-first President of the United States, Herbert Hoo- ver, was inaugurated, From the term of Washington, béginning April 30, 1789 up to and ineludin; the ‘present term of Hoover, end: ing March 3, 1933, 143 years, 10 months and 4 days will have passed and during such period the repre- sentatives of four groups or parties hhave manned the Executive Depart- ment of our National Government. ‘At the first election held under the Federal Constitution, George Washington, who had been chair- man of the convention which fram- ed the Constitution, was unani- mously chosen President without regard to party. The first cabinet and the first congress were com- posed of men who had favored the adoption of the Constitution; for it was not probable that ' men should be selected to organize a government which they had not Wished to establish, Washington had ‘hoped that his supporters would remain undivided and was distressed when he saw them forming parties. This process be- gan vith the introduction of Ham. iton’s financial plan and since that time parties have played an im- portant nart in the elections of our residents and so they do today. Four Major Parties During the entire experience of the 148 years, 10 months and 3 days with an executive head, the President, at our Federal ‘Govern- ment, only four major parties have Played any part, | Such parties were the Federalists, the Repub- licans, the Whigs, and the Demo- crats. It is of interest to note that of the entire period, the Federal- ists, represented by George Wash- ingston and John Adams served 11 years, 10 months and 4 days; or 8.88 per cent of the total time. ‘The Republicans, represented by ‘Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe, John Quincy ‘Adams, Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Johnson, Ulysses S. Grant, Ruther- ford B. Hayes, James A. Garfield, Chester A. Carter, Benjamin Har- rison, William McKinley, Theodore Roosevelt, William H. Taft, War- ren G, Harding, Calvin, Coolidge and Herbert Hoover, served 88 years, 11 months and’ 28 days; or 58.88 per cent of the total time. Though. the Democratic party. of today claims lineal descent from the first Republican party, and President Jefferson as its founder, Jefferson is listed in this classifi- sation as one of | the Republi: cans... However, if the Republican period is adjusted for his eight yeays of service, the entire time served by the other Presidents enumerated above is 76 years, 11 months and 28 days; or 52.78 per gent of the total time. Political parties were disorganized at the time of the election of John Quincy ‘Adams. He claimed to be a Repub- lican, but his doctrines were decid- edly Federalistic. The opposition to his administration took the name of Democrats and elected Andrew Jackson as President. ‘The Democrats As to the Democrats, starting with Andrew Jackson, March 4, 1829, and followed by Martin Van Buren, John Tyler, James K. Polk, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan, Grover Cleveland and ending with Woodrow Wilson on Marel: 3, 1921, they served a period of 43 years, and 11 months; or 0.56 per cent of the total time. If Thomas Jef- ferson is, included in this group, the total time served by the Demo- erats amounts to 51 years and 11 months; or 35.42 per cent of the entire period. : ‘The Whigs, represented by Wil- Tiam Henry’ Harrison, starting March 4, 1841, and followed by Zackary ‘Taylor and ending with Millard Fillmore on March 3, 1853, served a period of 4 years, 1 month ‘and 1 day; or 2.78 per cent of the total time. ‘The Federalists, represented by George, Washington, starting Apri $0, 4780 and ending with John ‘Adams on March 3, 1801, served a perigd of 11 years, 10 months and 4 days; or 8.33 per cent of the total time. ‘This was our first major party or Cog rg was the one that founded and organized our National Government. ‘The first period of Republican Presidents, started with our third President and lasted thruout the | term of our sixth President, » total of 28 years; the second ee started with our 16th Presi and lasted throughout the term ef our 2ist President, a total of 23 years, 11 months and 15 days; the third ‘period consisted of only the |term of our 28rd President; and ‘the fourth period started with the Eby ace ar ere Ss Presicent, a total of 15 years, 11 months and 28 days.

The first I met was young in age, old in the ways of the world, and doubtful of all good, He had just finished school, he wanted ‘a job. The job he wanted was held by an older man who refused to step out for the younger, and the firm, would not discharge him. “Bah,” he sa’’, with an expres- sive, college shrug. “That old duf- fer should take a back-seat. He is too old to be of any service now.” “But did he not make the job? Tasked, “He was not old when he ‘entered it years ago.” “He has been there since I was ‘t kid,” the college man replied, “I shall see my congressman. He will get the job for me.” He sauntered ‘on his way, feeling strong within himself the power of pride and youth. To me he was a thief, out to steal from an older man, that for which he had not labored. aaee The second man had a kind face, ‘a long coat, and a Bible under his ‘arm. Rushing u to him, I asked with tears, “What must I'do to be saved?” “Believe, my child, and live,” he softly replied. , “Believe what?” I asked, * ‘The Word, all of It,” holding out the Bible to me, Garelessly I opened it and saw these words: “Make not my house a den of thieves.” “Do you believe that?” T asked. “Yes, my dear brother.” “Then why do-you sell. tickets, beg in gleaners, Rave fairs, and within the church, the house of God?” He looked at me with nity. “there is to much, my child you cannot understand. God did not mean just what you mean.” {Sarely, He meant. what He said,” I persisted, Shaking his head, he walked on his pious way, He was a minister, but to me he was a sham and an unbeliever. sees The next man had a stern, proud look, as if he did no wrong. “T hate man who does not keep his word,” he said. “I hate the pergon who, during this, depres- ion, has not saved enough to live ip ease. Such slothful ones should arve. We aré living in an of the ‘survival of the Attest” “All men cannot save alike,” I reminded him. “Some have cares mitch greater than others, All men cannot hold their joks, Their em- Ployers have sométhing to say in that matter.” ._ “Nevertheless, they should pre- Pare for a rainy day, dark day, as T have prepared.” “What is your profession?” I aaked. “I ‘am a trustee of a large church,” he answered proudly. Living on someone else, I thought. The parasite, so full of wisdom and conceit, but neverthe- less a sham, tees All three I met were shams, and I made the fourth, because I failed to tell them what were my thoughts of them. Had I been less ‘a sham, I could not have seen their faults so clearly. the Democrats have served only single terms with the exception of Woodrow Wilson who served a total of 8 years. _ ‘The Federalistic period started with our Ist President, George Washington, and lasted ’ through- out the term of our 2nd President, John Adams, a total of 11 years, 10 months and 4 days. The Whig party, started with our 9th President as its represent- ative, Harrison who served only one month; the second Whig period started with the term of our 12th President and ending with the term of our 12th President and part term of our 13th President, a Period of 4 years and 1 day. The longest period served by any one President was 8 years and the shortest period was 1 month by William Henry Harrison. It is of interest to note that to date, six Presidents have served two come- cutive terms of 8 years each; 1 President, Grover Cleveland, two terms of 4 years each; and 14 Presidents served single terms of 4 years each. The other Presi- dential terms were ended for one reason or another. The total time served by George Washington was 7 years, 10 months and 4 days; though he served two consecutive tarms they were somewhat less than 8 years. The Resume What do these Bgeres ad per mean?

I began to take Uittle nibbles of this and just 8 taste of that. Before I realized it, I was gormandizing everything be- fore me. Naturally abashed, I muttered to myself: “Gosh!

There is a social lull while teachers and students settle down into their fall routine and exchange experiences of happy summers, while plans for the autumn season go on apace. Bridge clubs and the other social groups are already at work reorganizing and mapping out their season's activities which make a winter season in Washington one long gay round of brilliant affairs. The first interesting event of the season will be the informal dance given at the Crescent Country Club Friday evening by the board of managers. It promises to be a gala occasion, largely attended by the members and friends of the club, who are anxious to renew their activity acquaintance with the suburban rendezvous which holds such pleasant memories of former Indian Summers for most of Washington's smart set. The Presidential campaign is enlisting the efforts and interests of many Washingtonians this year—many of whom are eligible to vote but have in former contests evinced little interest in cither party's candidates. Actually the ratification meeting of the Hoover-Curtis League at the Masonic Temple Tuesday night, was quite a social affair. Maids and matrons, beaux and benedicts, physicians, serious-minded attorneys, business men turned out en masse to hear the Republican side of the question. Particularly interesting were the large groups of young people who attended, supporting the Young Republican League who were co-sponsors of the meeting. FRIENDS SURPRISE MRS. WILLIAMS AT HER NEW HOME On Saturday night a group of friends led by Dr. Amanda V. G. Hillyer, quietly assembled in the hall of the new home of Mrs. Emma Lee Williams at 813 T street, northwest, and after singing a welcome home song, agreeably marched into the living room unannounced and completely overpowered Mrs. Williams with a shower of gifts of appreciation and friendship. Songs of welcome made the occasion rather unique and the words of appreciation made the home coming a rather enjoyable event in the life of the surprised housekeeper who had been absent from the city since May 28. Gifts of all sorts were brought by the ladies and two tables had to be arranged to accommodate the very beautiful presents placed thereon as tangible evidence of the esteem in which Mrs. Williams was held by the friends of many years who had in this manner come to wish her well in her new home amid pleasant surroundings. Chairs were arranged in a circle and experiences were told, stories related and almost every conceivable toast was offered to the host while laughter made the evening one long to be remembered in the experiences of the guests. The following friends made the surprise possible: Dr. Amanda V. Gray Hilary, Miss Harriet L. Collier and Mesdames Gregoria Goins, Lillian Curtis, Lillian Wells, Maude Deans, Daisy W. Polk, Eva G.

A. which stand for the Saturday Nite Assembly, are seeningly bent on drawing the "cream" of Washington's younger set each Saturday eve. Last week was no exception.

My eyes caught the following at the dance: the Misses Ruth Brown, Annie Pickens, Mazie Parker, Jessie Frazier, Agnes Brady, Edna Butler, and Almeda Anderson; also Messrs. Paul Woodward, John Millard, "Bing" Miller, and Wilmer Dickerson. Don't forget, clubs, that I am always eager to learn just what you are doing in your organizations. So write to me. YOUTHFUL PERSONALITIES NO.3 Girls, meet Walter. This personable young chap from the state of Alabama has been in Washington now for only half a year, and yet he is fast becoming a concise personification of The Ladies Man. Grant left the South about two years ago and migrated from that point to Pennsylvania, where he secured employment for over a year. Being a young man, and a normal one at that, besides his share of youthful zest, and hopes for new worlds to conquer and greater glories to achieve, Walter left Pennsylvania and came to Washington. In spite of the fact that he came to this town, when the economic slump was at its highest level, he was able to secure employment. His accomplishments? Excellent all-around athlete, terpischorean artist, crooner, and gentleman. Say, who could ask for more? At present his lady fair answers to the name of Audrey. I hope he doesn't get mad over that last statement. WONDER IF IT'S TRUE THAT: A local business man will sponsor a basketball team this winter, said club to use his name. youthful house wives are saving themselves lusty bawling-outs (in patronizing the "Chicken Deliver-preparing hubby's dinner") by ed' emporiums.

WHITE POTATOES IN A VARIETY OF STYLE The ordinary white potato makes a most palatable and nutritious dish when prepared and cooked with care. They must be served hot and should be served as soon as taken from the stove. In the following recipes some a most palatable and nutritious while others suggest delicious luncheon dishes. Try them. Old potatoes sometimes acquire a rather strong taste which to some is unpleasant. To remedy this, pare the potatoes, drop them in cold water and let remain for a while (about two or three hours) changing the water several times. The flavor of the potatoes will be greatly improved. POTATO FRITTERS Boil and mash four large potatoes. Add four tablespoonfuls of the flour, the yolks of two eggs slightly beaten, one-fourth cupful of sugar, and enough milk to make a soft dough--about one-fourth cupful. Flavor with on-half teaspoonful of vanilla or the grated rind of one lemon, and fold in the whites of two eggs beaten stiff. Drop by spoonfuls of deep fat at 390 degrees F., and fry until golden brown. Without sugar or flavoring these fritters make a delicious garnish for a roast. PUFFED POTATOES Puffed potatoes are crisp and most tasty when right prepared. Select six potatoes which are rather long in shape. Pare and cut them lengthwise in slices about as thick as a silver dollar. Wash them carefully and dry with a towel. Heat a kettle of deep fat to 250 degrees F. Drop the potatoes in the fat and cook them slowly until tender without allowing them to brown. Remove and drain. Bring the fat up to 395 degrees F. Place in the frying basket only enough potatoes to cover the bottom. Fry the potatoes until crisp and golden brown on both sides--about four minutes. Drain, salt and serve. POTATOES WITH CHEESE Wash and prepare six medium-sized potatoes; cut in very thin rounds. Arrange the potatoes in layers in a baking dish, sprinkling over each layer one-fourth teaspoonful of salt, one and one-half tablespoonfuls of flour, one tablespoonful of grated cheese, one tablespoonful of butter, and a sprinkle of pepper. Beat the yolks of two eggs and add one quart of milk. Pour over the potatoes and cook for one and one-quarter hours at 350 degrees F. or until the potatoes are tender and the custard is set. PARISIAN POTATOES Slice one onion thin and put in a kettle with six tablespoonfuls of drippings or vegetable fat. Fry the onions until golden brown. Then add six potatoes sliced very thin, two and one-half teaspoonfuls of salt, one-fourth teaspoonful of pepper and two tablespoonfuls of chopped parsley. Cover and cook very slowly, taking care to stir the potatoes gently with a fork so that they will brown evenly and without breaking. POTATOES WITH HAM ...Wash and, pare, six potatoes.

Bake in a 325 degree F. oven for forty-five min- utes, or until set. MASHED POTATO PIE Wash and pare six medium-sized potatoes. Cook in boiling, salted water until tender. Drain and put through the potato ricer. Add two tablespoonfuls of butter, the yolk of one egg, two teaspoonfuls of salt eight tablespoonfuls of grated cheese, and one curple of milk. Mix thoroughly. Spread this mixture in a buttered casserole, smooth the surface, and sprinkle with two tablespoonfuls of grated cheese and two tablespoonfuls of butter in small pieces. Bake in a 350 degree F. oven for twenty minutes or until brown. POTATOES MAITRE d'HOTEL Wash and pare six medium-sized potatoes. Cook until tender in boiling water. Drain and cut the potatoes in slices. Return them to the saucepan, adding two tablespoonfuls of butter, two tablespoonfuls of chopped parsley, one half teaspoonful of salt, and one fourth teaspoonful of pepper. Heat thoroughly, being careful not to break the potatoes in stirring. Just before serving add one teaspoonful of lemon juice. POTATOES ROASTED IN DRIPPINGS Wash and pare six uniform-sized potatoes and cook in boiling, salted water for ten minutes. Drain. In a shallow pan put enough drippings to cover the bottom of the pan well, and to baste the potatoes. When the fat is hot arrange the potatoes side by side in the pan and let them cook slowly, having first sprinkled them with salt. Turn the potatoes frequently, so that they will roast evenly. It will take about one-half hour in a 400 degree F. oven. When the potatoes are tender, drain and serve at once. Maintaining Wage Standards In House- hold Employment According to the U. S. Department of Labor- Women's Bureau Report there is a tendency on the part of employers to demand higher job qualifications from household employees while at the same time paying lower wages, was shown in an examination of orders coming to the Service Department of the Public Employment Center of Rochester, N.Y., during the first two months of 1932. Forty four per cent of requests for workers coming in during this period were cancelled. Of these 152 cancelled orders, 29 were not filled because the pay was too low; 15 because living conditions contingent upon the job were not acceptable; 11 because the distance to the job was too great and no allowance was made for carfare; and 13 because the qualifications required by the job were much higher than the wages which were to be paid. A report from the Employment Center states that even when the classification was not mentioned specifically, it was found that "requirements out of line with pay offered" honeycombed, this whole group of cancelled orders.

Dept. of Labor) Langer periods of unemployment had been borne by the women than the men who applied for jobs during the first week of March, 1929, at thirty-nine industrial establishments and six placement agencies in Philadelphia. A study based on special questionnaires covering the employment experience of each applicant for three years, showed that married men although often out of work, tended to remain out for shorter periods than the other groups of applicants. Single men lost time more frequently than any other group, and a large percentage of single women also had bee out of work three and four times. Though wo- m n had longer unemployment than had men, they had not held so many different jobs during the period studied. Half of the married women and nearly half of the single women had been employed on low-grade clerical jobs as their regular occupation. The author of the study in concluding states, "The group appears to constitute a labor supply which is in great part above the average quality. The enforced idleness of most of these workers is due, not to their unfitness for work, but to the inability of business and industry to absorb these capable and willing workers."

"We have not yet fully decided how many forms of work our shop will offer to the sightless men, but at present we are giving full attention to chair caning; however, a greater variety of trades is sure to come with our future development. The women are already making rugs, electric trees, ear rings, and necklaces, and various other articles both useful and ornamental." DR. A. S.

RED CROSS WORKER TELLS OF TERROR IN LEVEE CAMPS RED CROSS WORKER TELLS OF TERROR IN LEVEE CAMPS White Girl Says Women and Men Are Beaten and Work For Nothing Miss Helen Boardman, former Red Cross worker, Thursday, testified beore Brig. Gen. G. B. Pillsbury, assistant chief of Army engineers, on conditions she found in an investigation of 22 contractors' labor camps on Mississippi flood control projects. The hearing was closed, but an advance statement on what her testimony would be, given out in behalf of Miss Boardman by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, described conditions "without exception unspeakable," with "brutality the rule." "Women were beaten for not having meals ready on time," Miss Boardman was quoted as reporting. "Two men were beaten and charged for refusing night work after having worked all day. "Some of the contractors and foremen were armed with rifles. I saw them myself. The heat was terrible. The men were driven in a temperature of 120 degrees in swamps filled with mosquitoes." Miss Boardman described the workers as "terrified and afraid to talk," the statement said. She blamed the contract system used by the War Department for the worse abuses. "I always talked to all of the white people in charge of the camps," said Miss Boardman, "and to as many colored workers, b—in the camps and in the vicinity as I was able to contact. The admissions of the white contractors and foremen corroborated what the colored man charged. Lived Admist Garbage "I saw Negroes living in ragged, miserable and overcrowded tents, unscreened from mosquitoes and flies, surrounded in some cases by piles of garbage. The men worked from 12 to 16 hours a day. On the outskirts of some of the camps there were groups of hungry unemployed men waiting for any vacancy, a condition of which the foremen took full advantage. Wages amounted to from $1 to $2.50 a day, but by the use of a trick commissary system, even that amount was seldom paid. "The workers were forced to pay a weekly fee of $4 or $5 whether they traded at the commissary or not. In addition they were charged according to the whim of the commissary agent, for all sorts of necessities, such as 50 cents a week for drinking water, $1 a week for tent rent which was supposed to be free, $1 a week for cook's fee, 25 cents for 15-cent cigarettes and other prices in proportion. "One man told me he got $1.50 for three weeks' work. "Brutality in the camps is the rule. In one place the contractor, a man of particularly violent temper, was reported as having picked up a club and knocked a worker down simply because he did not like the way he looked at him. Mostly Starving "I saw a group of men who had nothing to eat waiting for a job. The smell of food came to them at mealtime. The pressure of hunger made them willing to put up with anything. "Three shifts of eight hours each would have taken care of all of those men. "The workers would talk only if no white people other than myself were in sight, and then only if they were introduced by some one whom they knew." Miss Boatman, in blaming the contract system used by the War Department for the worst abuse, said that at one Government-camp conditions were much better, both as to living and wages, and there was no commissary there, although the men there, too, were worked 12 hours a day. The hearing was accorded by the War Department at the request of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Senator Wagner, Democrat, of New York, has promised the association to introduce a resolution for a sentimental investigation of the conditions alleged. Miss Boardman is a graduate of Grimmell College (Iowa) and New York University, and has served several social agencies in addition to the Red Cross. TO ENTER HOWARD UNIVERSITY Howard A.

BROTHERS HELD FOR GRAND JURY IN RUM CASE Pair Led Police A Merry Chase Before Capture Saturday Night Two brothers, Bernard Cole, 31, and George, 38, were held for the Grand Jury under $1,500 bond each by Judge Gus A. Schuldt in Police Court Monday when the pair were arraigned on a charge of transporting liquor. The men were arrested Saturday night after they eluded police by fleeing from a truck in the 1700 block of P street, northwest. Police say, the brothers ran and left the truck which contained tw0 10-gallon kegs of whiskey. The men outdistanced the police until they ran into a blind alley where Bernard who failed to scale an eight-foot fence was captured.

MOTORIST KILLS BOY TRYING TO AVOID COLLISION Machine Runs On Sidewalk In Attempt To Avoid Striking Slow Driver Two men, one white, were held for the action of the grand jury following an inquest at the District: Morgan, Monday morning in connection with the death of Francis Tippett, 10-year-old white boy who was fatally injured in an accident at Tenth street and Mary land avenue. According to witnesses the boy was standing on the sidewalk when an automobile operated by James R. Anderson, 607 Gordon street, northeast, swerped to avoid collision with a car operated by Herbert A. Whitney, white, who lives in Alexandria. Anderson's car jumped the curb and overturned, crushing the boy beneath it. Testimony was to the effect that Whitney's machine failed to stop at a stop sign at Maryland avenue. He stated that the sign was located on a lamp post at a height which made it difficult to see from a sedan. It is said Whitney's car stopped suddenly and Anderson had to pull suddenly aside to avoid crashing into the machine. Two hitchhikers were riding with Anderson and were slightly injured.

The body was finally identified by two of the dead man's friends at the morgue. One of the mourners at his funeral was Mrs. Jennie Thomas, whom Thomas denied he had married after living with her for 33 years and presenting her to his friends as his wife. In her suit for separate maintenance last July Mrs. Thomas declared that she married Thomas in Cleveland 33 years ago, but has been unable to locate the minister who performed the ceremony or find a record in the Cleveland marriage bureau. Mrs. Thomas showed the court affidavits from prominent persons in different sections of the country showing that Thomas had on many occasions introduced her as his wife in society. Dismisses Her In a cross bill Thomas declared that he never married, but merely employed the woman as his housekeeper and last summer he decided to dismiss her from his services. The second woman at the funeral whom Thomas claimed was his wife was Matille Greer, 710 Q street, northwest, where Thomas lived at the time of his death. However, in a will just filed Thomas admits that the first Mrs. Thomas is his wife, but it is understood that he left the bulk of his fortune to the latter woman. Following the maintenance suit last summer the court ordered Thomas to pay his wife $60 per month. Attorney George H. Happ, who represents Mrs. Thomas, said this week that his client had not decided on what action she would take to protect her rights.

The rackets take their pound of flesh. It's quite strange how a man feels that he is entitled to something that belongs to somebody else . . . or a woman either, for that matter . . . and get mad if he doesn't get it. Yes, I say mad; because mad it is. The case in point concerns one of Washington's venerable racketeers, Charlie Thomas (Old Man), a likeable chap, with no little personality. He followed his racket as a professional (Race Horse Book-making); and on one occasion he became quite offended when he was referred to as a "numbers man." Charlie Thomas was colorful. Sporty cars and pretty women were his style. He considered the "slips" that appaered in the Tatler, Murmur or such mediums as good advertising for his business; and he encouraged it. Things went well; money flowed in; while the "suckers" went shy. Had Charlie Thomas' mind been able to conceive the suffering of the families of inveterate race horse bettors over long periods of years, we would not have taken his own reverses so hopelessly. Many had lost their all, had lost it all to Charlie; but that meant nothing to him. His mind was geared in one direction. He knew only "how to win." What happened when he lost? On at least two occasions this colorful character ran out on bettors who were lucky enough to hit for big money. Imagine how the better fell—after losing hundreds of dollars over a period of years—to see himself cheated out of his winnings when luck turned his way. Charlie had a "hideout"—out west, they say. After a few months, or maybe years, he would come back and wiggle out of his difficulties, starting business again. His broad smile invited tolerance on the part of those who sought vengeance; and Charlie still made money. However, the end must come. After Charlie's last "run-out," it was said that the "downtown" racketeers had put up "Charlie's number." Others said that new rackets had cut down Charlie's business. Whatever the reason, he took a gun and went for a ride. He was found dead. He couldn't beat the packet. He paid his pound of flesh. And if you prefer a picture of youth in the clutches of the racket, look at the life of "Boysie "Shippen. Bad companions, violence, rackets—they're heavy odds and they're against those who would follow the racket trail. It's 10 to 1 you don't live to see 40; and it's 15 to 1 that you die in your shoes. When I heard that "Boysie" Shippen was dead the first question I asked was: "Did he meet a violent death?" The answer was, "No." A day latter the answerer corrected himself, saying, "He did meet a violent death. He received his injuries in a private fight, was given private first-aid, but later had to be taken to a hospital where he died. He was given a private funeral. A sad commentary on disaster mistaken for adventure. And while I was talking about wrongdoing, I see no reason for any woman who runs out on her husband to advertise same. Last week we received a phone call that (a lady we'll call) "Alpha" had created a disturbance at a local hospital. The message said that she had lambasted her husband and had run out into the night screaming that "Cosign X" was the only man on earth that she loved. Of course we paid little attention to the phone call, but when we were later informed that "Alpha" had made the call herself, we began to think. Well—she either did it, or said she did it. Which ever way you take it if it's the same ever don't give her any credit for advertising "Cosign X". 12-Year-Old Girl Hurt While Skating Near Home Injured when she slipped and fell to the ground while skating Sunday, Beatrice Plater, twelve-year-old school girl, was given first aid treatment at Freedmen's Hospital. The lass who sustained a laceration of the right ankle was later removed to her home, 444 Ridge street, northwest.
