NEGRO EDITORS SPEAK OUT ON HOOVER ADDRESS Many Express Lack Of Confidence In President Hoover's Sincerety The Negro press is deserting President Hoover and the Republican party and crying out in no uncertain voice against the failure of the Hoover Administration and the Republican party in general.

Mrs. Eloise M. White, common-law wife of Harrison, was held pending the inquest in connection with the man's death. She was exonerated by a Coroner's jury following a verdict of accidental death. Mrs. John Harrison, the dead man's lawful wife, met her rival at the District Morgie. Both wept, Mrs. Harrison told Mrs. White, "You must pray, so you won't go to hell, too." Trapped in Flames Harrison was fatally burned when he was trapped in the house Sunday afternoon after a resevoir on a coal oil stove had exploded. He was alone at the time, and according to Lieutenant John Flairty, of No. 4, Precinct, the man so doubt took the resevoir from the stove and after filling it with oil attempted to put it back on the burning stove. Lieutenant Flaherty said Harrison was evidently too drunk to escape and instead tried to throw the burning reservoir out of a window. The flames from the oil set to another can of kerosene in the room. The officer said Harrison was no doubt overcome and collapsed on the kitchen floor, where he was found by members of the fire rescue squad. He was taken to Emergency Hospital and died a half hour later. Neighbors said the man and woman had been drinking and quarreling all day. Mrs. White claimed she was not in the house when it caught fire, but was in the street. She returned to find the upper rooms where she and Harrison lived in flames. Private Leon Walker, a soldier from Fort Humphries, testified that he attempted to enter the house when he saw flames, but was forced back by the smoke, and gas from the burning oil. Revolver Found in Room Fire Inspector R. C. Roberts said his investigation showed that there were two separate fires; one in the kitchen where a hole was burned in the floor, and another in a bed- room, where a mattress was scratched about the edges. A Revolver was found in the house with two or three exploded shells. Police said the gun was fired from the heat as the cartridges had not been struck with the hammer. After she was evacuated, Mrs. Washington Tribune PETER J. Cab Driver Finds Woman Lying In Street Injured WOMAN SHOT BY SNIPER FROM SPEEDING AUTO WOMAN SHOT BY SNIPER FROM SPEEDING AUTO Front Room Of Private Residence Contains Complete Bar Police are searching for the white sniper, that shot Mrs. Edna Harrison, 24, while she was sitting on the steps of her home, 333 Virginia avenue, southwest, Saturday. According to Oli Crumpton, who was with Mrs. Harrison at the time, a big car came by the house and a man leaned out and fired at the two women sitting in the doorway. Mrs. Harrison fell with a bullet wound in her left leg. She was taken to Emergency Hospital in a passing taxicab where she was treated for the wound. She returned home Monday, but was taken to tadlinger Hospital Tuesday, where an effort will be made to remove the bullet from her leg. Mrs. Anna Rummels, who also lives at the house, told a Tribune reporter that after Mrs. Harrison was shot she told police she remembered the license number on the car. Police have the number of the machine and are tracing the ownership of the sniper car. Although the house where Mrs. Harrison lives has the appearance of a private residence on the outside, the entire front room is taken up with a long bar which runs the length of the room. Plate glass mirrors line the wall of the room as well as behind the bar. Bottles in neat rows are on the shelves of the bar. A foot rail and brass cuspidors complete the fixtures of the room. Mrs. Runnels said Mrs. Harrison took the sniper for white, but she was of the opinion that he might be colored. The woman refused to discuss the alleged bootleg war that has been raging in the neighborhood.

MORTIMER HARRIS ATTORNEY, FREED OF FRAUD CHARGE The charge of larceny after trust against Mortimer M. Harris, a local attorney, was nolle prosed in Police Court, Thursday morning. Harris was alleged to have secured a sum of money from J. R. Powell, 1426 Montello avenue, northwest. Powell claimed that Harris promised to save the former's home for a sum of $120. The aged man said Harris failed to keep the promise. Mortimer M. Harris is fast becoming one of the most active practiceers at the bar among our group. He recently was recommended to represent a client in the city of Atlanta, Ga., by the first assistant United States Marshal against a local white insurance company. The company was so impressed with the way Mr. Harris handled the case (he having settled the case for the entire amount with ketarest) the company retained Mr. Harris to represent them. At present he is attempting to settle many claims now pending against the company. The appointment of Mr. Harris by this white insurance company is the first time a large white corporation in this city has employed a colored attorney. Only recently Mr. Harris represented the Temple Luncheonette against the Fleshman Soda Fountain Company with an injunction against the said soda fountain company and settled the same for his client's benefit. Last week he filed an injunction against the Fletcher Fixture Company of Richmond, Va., for the Luncheonette involving many thousands of dollars. The Luncheonette is a drug ard luncheonette enterprise in the Masonic Temple. Mr. Harris represented the contestant of the Eliza Thomas estate, where Fort Stevens is located and at which place Lincoln ate. Eliza Thomas was a former slave. The estate is worth about $75,000, and the fort was purchased by the U.S. Government for a park. Mr. Harris interested the Government in the purchase. He was appointed a trustee with Mr. Whaly, assistant Corporation Counsel, for the State. This case has been in the courts for nearly 25 years.

Robinson, known as one who never refuses to bet, took nerve when someone suggested that they would like to find a rabid Yankee ooter who possessed sufficient nerve to bet that Yanks would win three or more straight, and immediately answered, "Betcha they win four straight". Bill got the 6-1 odds he wanted and the bet was closed. Everyone kows the Yanks walked away with four straight from the Chicago Cubs, a Bill on and got paid. Robinson was the husband of the late Florence Mills, famous dancer in America and abroad. He is famous for running backwards 75 yards faster than a spinner ca run 100 yards. He has won victories over Gordon Locke, George Simpson, Fadie Tolan, Frank Wykoff, Percy Williams, Binga Dismond and last spring defeated a picked bunch of local high school runners.

Just as the woman "operator" started the massage the detectives arrested the women and carried them along with their massaging table and mattress to the precinct. The Alexander woman is also charged with running a disorderly house. Prior to the arrest, the girls are said to have operated their "parlor" at the fashionable Whitelaw Hotel, but moved when residents complained of the unusual number of white men visiting the apartment. The girls insisted that all their trade must be white. Hundreds of curiosity seekers were attracted to the court room Wednesday morning to hear the case. Attorney Armond J. Scott represents the girl.

Studies Sweet Potato But Dr. Carver has not devoted his entire attention to the lowly peanut, which he says is not a nut, but a vegetable of the pea family. He has experimented with sweet potatoes and has made 118 products, among them flour, meal, starch, library paste, vinegar, shoe blacking, ginger, ink, rubber compounds, chocolate compound, dyes, molasses, wood fillers and caramels. Not one cent has he received for this work. As fast as he makes a discovery he makes it public for the "good of humanity," he explained, "for the farmer must depend on by-products these days to eke out a living from the soil." Surplus cotton this year caused him to experiment with the staple and recently he turned over to the State of Alabama a formula for mixing cotton with asphalt for road paving. He explained the staple would act the same as the steel reinforcement used in concrete. For the last 10 years Dr. Carver also devoted his time to research and to aid the creative mind of youth. He has advised some of the best families in the Southland about the education of their children. He has "prized" pupils now at Oxford, Columbia, Yale, and Harvard. Conservation of Waste He believes that if this country is to climb out of the depression it must set the minds of youths to thinking about the conservation of waste. He said he has given waste much stud, and from wood shavings he has made synthetic marble; from peanut shells he has made insulating walls for houses; from muck of swamps and leaves of the forest floor he has made valuable fertilizer, and from wire grass he has made furniture. Dr. Caiver is also an artist, and from Alabama clay he makes his own paints. From the same clay he has discovered dyes. It is his opinion that the South is the richest section of the United States. There is no limit to its undeveloped natural resources, he asserted. This scientist is no stranger in Washington. In fact, he is well known here both in scientific and political circles. The last time he was here, however, was more than four years ago. A delegation of Alabama farmers brought him here to testify before the House Ways and Means Committee in an effort to get a tariff on peanuts written in the Fordney-McCumber bill. He demonstrated the many by-products he had discovered and secured the tariff. NEW YORKERS FLY TO CAPITAL Dr. and Mrs. Horace D. Worrell, of the Dunbar Apartment in New City, made a trip to Washington by airplane last week. HARLEM HONORS COAST-TO-COAST NEGRO FLYERS First Of Race To Cross Continent By Air, Took Two Weeks To Make Trip The saga of the first transcontinental flight to be completed by Negroes was told by the co-pilots, J. Herman Banning and Thomas C. Allen, at a dinner given them last night at the Sunset Maribrooke Cafe, 2256 Seventh Avenue Harlem, just two weeks and one day after they took off from Los Angeles Airport in a four-year-old ship, powered by a fourteen-year-old motor, and without the benefit of parachutes or of some of the usual instruments for flying. Although their elapsed time was an even fortnight before they landed at Curtiss Airport, Valley Stream, LLI, their actual flying time was forty-one hours. The difference was accounted for by one forced landing, two descents for engine trouble, several days of being grounded by rain and fog and several more days when they could not scrape enough money to refuel their tanks. The flyers were welcomed in cordial if not demonstrative fashion by leading Negro business men, editors, men about Harlem and others who were attracted into the cafe, a modernistic affair with tables suspended from the ceiling, by chromium rods, by a sign outside. "The Lindbergh and the Chamberlain of the Negro Race," the first line read. "Here today at 6 p.m. J. Herman Banning and Thomas C. Allen, first Negroes to fly from coast to coast," accounted for the next two lines. In small letters followed: "Will tell their experiences—come in and give them a big hand." Off to the side in a box: "Under the sponsorship of Floyd G. Snelson, the Floyd Gibbons of the Negro race." "Flying Hoboes" The two flyers were more modest. They billed themselves as "The Two Flying Hoboes." The flight had not been made for science, the aviators admitted—it was just something which had never been done before by members of their race and they thought they would do it. They got together a plane of a type which is no longer made, installed a 100-h. p. motor which the government sold out of its war surplus—"some of the horses were dead," they said—and with $25 between them for expenses started for New York. No fanfare attended their going. Four people saw them off. "We angled down through Arizona and New Mexico, listening to that motor real close," said Banning. "At Lordsburg, N.M., where the field is almost a mile high, we just did barely make our take-off." "It's lucky we didn't have any parachutes — the extra weight would have made us crash in some wires at the end of the runway," Allen broke in. "As it was, it took us five miles of flying to get higher than fifty feet above ground. The highest point of the flight was over the Rockies, 9,000 feet. We had to begin climbing for that 100 miles before we reached it." WASHINGTONIAN IN LINCOLN'S LITERARY LIST Nine Lincoln University Men Make Good In Literature According to the current issue of "Near El Capitan, the highest mountain in Texas, we ran into some awful fog." Banning continued. "We couldn't see our wing tips and we didn't have any instruments for blind flying. We just lucked through. Didn't have much more trouble until we got to the foot-hills of the Alleghenies, near a little town in Ohio called Cambridge. The steel in our motor was so old it crystallized. Two rocker arms went out. That took a lot of repairing. We hope-before we start back to get another motor. The old OXX-6 isn't so hot." "Sounds like a life." Sound's Like Banning has been living for several years and has 750 hours in the air to his credit. He received three hours and forty-five minutes' instruction from a pilot in Iowa before the pilot crashed with another student and was killed. Banning bought the motor out of the wreckage, pieced together two wings, and a fuselage from spare parts at an airfield and, with those three hours and forty-five minutes' instruction as a background made his first solo flight. "I know it sounds like a lie," he said, "but it's the truth." Allen admitted to even more informal training. He had been "double-dog-dared" into taking a ship up after he had flown for a few hours as a passenger. He got it off the ground and managed to land it without mishap, he said. Although people were generally very considerate along the route, giving them money and supplies, they went hungry many times, they said. Lodgings for the night were hard to find in the out-of-the-way places. "One night at Wink, Texas, a ghost oil town," said Allen, "we didn't have any money, but the landlady of a boarding house, who ran a roompool too, offered to play me a game of pool to see if we ate or didn't. It was lucky I could shoot pool, 'cause she sure could. It took all I had to beat her." I have been reading your paper and I find it to be a good newspaper. I am, Franklin O. Reeves According to the current issue of the Lincoln University Herald nine former Lincoln men are gaining prominence in the world of literature. It refers to John H. Paynter, Rev. George C. Shaw, Albert Sidney Beckham, Harry W. Greene, Langston Hughes, Horace Mann Bond, John Henry Alston, Dr. George C Branche, and Herbert W. Baumgardner. A relative to these The paragraphs relative to these men follow: "John H. Paynter, '83, of Washington, is the author of 'Fugitives of the Pearl', a novel d aling with pre-war life in Washington. The book expresses a fine philosophy of life presented in a graceful and attractive style, and gives a vivid picture of the heroism and pathos of the days before Emancipation. In the story is a happy blending of character sketches, biographical incidents and historical events of a momentous period, all woven into a tale of absorbing interest." "Rev. George C. Shaw, D.P., '86, the founder and principal of Mary Potter School, Oxford, N.C., has written the life of John Chavis (1763-1836), a remarkable Negro who conducted a school in North Carolina for white boys and girls." The task which Dr. Shaw has performed is well worth while. He has rescued from what might within a few years pass into oblivion the remarkable career and character of John Chavis, and the notable contribution he made to education and to friendly helpfulness in race relations. The book is attractive in appearance and in literary style. Langston Hughes Langston Hughes Dr. Shaw is hoping, if means are provided, to erect a monument to John Chavis on the campus of the Mary Potter School." "Langston Hughes, '29, who has been lecturing in the South, is a frequent contributor to Opportunity and other magazines. He has recently sailed for Europe. Mr. Hughes has been spoken of by the Tageblatt, of Berlin, as the leading Negro poet of America. Of his novel, 'Not Without Laughter,' the Manchester Guardian, of England, said: 'Mr. Hughes is content to leave us, by the quiet excellence of his narrative, in the knowledge that the people of whom he writes, unhappy indeed, though not without laughter, are no more, and no less, deserving of pity than any one else in the world who is born and loves and dies.' In 1931, Mr. Hughes was the recipient of the Harmon award for distinguished achievement in Literature." "Albert Sidney Beckham, '15, clinical psychologist of the Institute of Juvenile Research of Chicago, writes in Opportunity for August, 1932, on 'Race and Intelligence.' He is also the author of several pamphlets on sociological subjects, one of which on 'Juvenile Crime' is in the Journal of Juvenile Research, Chicago, January, 1932." "Harry W. Greene, '17, of West Virginia State College, writes in a recent number of School and Society on 'Negro Holders of the Ph. D. Degree.'" "Horace Mann Bond," 23, is noticed with high praise in 'Brown America,' by Edwin R. Embree, president of the Rosenwald Fund, who speaks of 'his unquestioned ability as a student and writer.' Mr. Bond, who has been working for the Julius Rosenwald Fund, has an interesting article, 'A Negro Looks at His South,' in a recent number of Harper's Magazine. He also writes on Negro education in the new Journal of Negro Education, Howard University, April, 1932." "John Henry Alston, '17, dean of the Prairie View State College, Prairie View, Texas, has edited a personal study of the Negro High School Principals of Texas." "Dr. George C. Branche, '17, of the Veterans' Hospital, at Tuskegee Institute, has published a technical paper on Tryparamide Therapy in the Journal of the National Medical Association." "Herbert W. Baumgardner, '19, is editor of the Palmetto Leader, a prominent weekly of Columbia, S.C." PLAINS TO BATTLE BALTIMORE ROYALS Another page of sporting history will be made when the Pleasant Plains team, Washington's own South Atlantic sandlot champions, clashes with the powerful Baltimore Royals, the pride of Maryland and undefeated in two years of competition. This will be the first colored football game to be played in the District under the flood lights in Griffith Stadium, October 21. Douglass Smith, of promoting fame in Baltimore, and James Page and Lester Perry, president and manager, respectively, of the Pleasant Plains Club, are working constantly to make this affair as interesting and as thrilling as any college football game, even to the provision of a band for the occasion. WHITE OWL SPURS SALES CAMPAIGN WHITE OWL SPURS SALES CAMPAIGN Nation-Wide Election Of Cigar Stressed In Advertisement As a climax to the heavy advertising support behind White Owl for 1932, a big blast campaign drives full speed ahead for increased White Owl sales, its goal an even greater record than that set by the same cigar—over 425,000,000 sold the first year at 5 cents. In order to dominate reader attention just as White Owl itself dominates the 5-cent field in sales, this campaign strikes out with a big space advertisement and follows through with a series of eyecatching spot shots. Smokers of this vicinity will be exposed to the White Owl campaign in the pages of The Tribune. As has been the policy of the heavy advertising support behind White Owl since it first made its appearance, this big blast White Owl advertisement aims at increased sales at the cigar case. First, last, and all the time its purpose is to send smokers into stores for White Owl—to insure such a great demand that, by virtue of its quick turnover, all dealers make more and more profits on White Owl. Better Tobacco Will Tell Through a fresh treatment the spot advertisement that follow the "Front Page News" blast are designed with the same end in sight—increased sales at the cigar case. Eye-catching in appearance and occupying prominent position on the sporting pages in which they appear, they present their sales message under the headline: "Better Tobacco Will Tell." Brisk, to-the-point copy drives home fundamental truths about White Owl that the majority of smokers realize, "White Owl sells 5 cents straight," the copy says in substance. "The dealer cannot afford to take less for it, because he pays more for it than ordinary 5-cent cigars. Where you do not see White Owl displayed ask your dealer for it. He is pleased to serve you the country's leading 5-cent cigar." Two Weeks' Test Dealers who so far have not tried top-of-the-case White Owl display need only place White Owl on display for two weeks to convince themselves that this is a money-making move. In this short period sales should increase; dealers should make more money with White Owl in sight than with White Owl out of sight. For, with White Owl top-of-the-case display, they are taking advantage of one of the most effective sales-stimu- lating combinations known—the combination of display plus advertising, a combination which invariably results in peak sales and peak profits. PLA'NS SMOTHER WARRENTON "11" District Eleven Invades Virginia Soil For Third Straight Win The Pleasant Plains wrecking crew dismantled the W. J. Athletic Club of Warrenton when they traveled to Warrenton, Wednesday, and tucked their third straight win in the bag, 33 to 6. Just a few minutes after the game started, Chang Warren, a newcomer in the Plains backfield, went off tackle for ten yards and the first score of the game. In the second period he again crossed the Washington goal, after a persistent drive. Chang accounted for two extra points. "Red Pine" Armstrong got away as usual, in the third and fourth periods for brilliant runs to make two tallies. Hayes accounted for one extra Hayes accounted for one extra point, bringing the score to 27. In the third period Warrenton scored but were unable to make good their trial for point after touchdown. In the fourth period Hayes again went over for Plains, ending the scoring of the game. In the absence of Coach Lee, backfield Coach Jim Gray handled the squad. Every player saw service during the fray, and the forward wall of the Warrenton aggregation was no match for the attack of the sturdy maroon line. The Plainsmen carried five auto loads of rooters, which included President Page and party. Numerous fans and players from Fredericksburg were on hand to see the Plainsmen, who will invade Fredericksburg Monday, October 17th. Dr. Carter Woodson Talks On His European Trip Dr. Carter G. Woodson, director of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, addressed the students of the Shaw Junior High School at the regular senior assembly, Monday. Dr. Woodson spoke concerning certain observations made during his recent trip to Europe during the past summer. He analyzed life in Europe today as compared with the life of twenty-five years ago. He closed with a very interesting account of his findings as a result of his research while in Europe studying Negro Life and History. t's All! FOOTBALL Howard vs. W. Va.

HOWARD vs. UNION, October 22 Howard vs. Morgan, November 5 Howard vs. Lincoln November 24 at HOWARD UNIVERSITY STADIUM TWELVE PLACEMENT KICK WINS FOR BISONS Howard Comes From Behind To Overcome Tigers By One Point LAWRENCEVILLE, Va.—Coming from behind in an exhibition of power and undaunted nerve to overtake a thirteen-point lead, Howard University defeated St. Paul in the Bison's opening game of the season last Saturday, here, with a score of 14-13. Hall's kick from placement for the point after touchdown provided the margin of victory. Both of Howard's touchdowns were scored by Ware, freshman halfback. Early in the first period Williams' 30-yard pass to Jones on Howard's five-yard line enabled St. Paul's captain to cross over for the first touchdown of the game. An attempted line buck for the extra point failed. The Bison's power plays in this period were negatived by 50-yard penalty as against five for St. Paul, and for the most part the quarter was characterized by a punting duel between Jones and Hall. In the second period Williams threw a twenty-yard pass to W. Hall, St. Paul's left end, who was brought 'down on Howard's two-yard line. Deas plunged through a hole in the Howard line for a touchdown. Jones drop-kicked for the extra point. Ware Scores Touchdown Following the kick-off Howard started a drive on their own 20-yard line with repeated first downs by Johnson and Ware, and a 20-yard pass from Hall to Ware until Howard had a first down on St. Paul's 1-yard line. Ware dived through center for the first touchdown. Hall place kicked for the extra point. Jones' fumble of a fair catch was recovered by Cole, Howard guard, on St. Paul's 47-yard line. Johnson hit the line for five yards and Ware for ten, with Johnson making another first down on a single play. A lateral from Ware to Hall was good for another 12-yard gain. Ware cut around left end for 11 yards and touchdown. Hall place kicked for the deciding point. While the home team threatened in the last period with a 45-yard run by Smith, St. Paul's sub back and two bullet-like passes from Jones to Williams brought St. Paul to Howard's 2-yard line, having failed repeatedly to make any kind of gain through Howard's line, Jones's attempted pass to Williams was grounded in the end zone. Hall kicked out of danger from the 20-yard line. Line-up and summary. ST. PAUL HOWARD C. Haill L.E. Chandler Jenkins L.T. Pavton Haster L.G. Cole Hasley center Walker Coleman R.G. Dionora Gullil R.T.

Debut November 12 Howard To Make First Grid Appearance In New York In Polo Grounds; Verdell Confident Of Successful Season The decisive battle for the football championship of Intercollegiate Athletic Association will be fought at the Polo Grounds on Saturday, November 12, when Hampton Institute, of Hampton, Va., meets Howard University. The game will mark Howard's first appearance on a New York gridiron. With the beginning of classes last week half a dozen new men put in an appearance as candidates for positions on the Howard varsity team. Although the squad is not as numerous as in years past this possible handicap is compensated by the average weight of the line and backfield, which exceeds The tussle between Hampton and Howard will be the outstanding athletic event of the year for residents of the city and a great surrounding area. Special trains will carry rooters and their school bands from Washington and Virginia, and Harlem will declare a holiday to welcome the outstanding contenders for the gridiron championship of 1932. Hampton has played its big game of the season in New York four consecutive years. Preparing for the game, Howard has assembled the most impressive coaching staff in her history. Under the leadership of Thomas Verdell, the great Northwestern end of several seasons ago, the staff comprises Harry Payne as assistant coach in charge of the backfield; Thomas Hawkins, assistant coach in charge of tackles; and "Big Bill" Bell, who starred for three years at Ohio State and was a member of last year's All-American eleven. Regular practice has been under way at Howard since early September and the men have been hard at work drilling in the fundamentals of kicking, blocking, tackling and line play. About seven regulars returned to the squad, including the Bisons' unique co-captains, Peyton and Greenlee. Last year's captain, MacDonald, was lost by graduation, and the team will also miss Paul Perkins in the backfield. There will be no little difficulty in replacing the two veteran ends, Lee and Mack. Varsity Men Return The varsity men who have returned and are hard at work are Cole, Chandler, Hall, Hollman, Johnson, Jarrett, Kaiser, Ligget, MacGruder, Pamer, Stewart, Sewell, and Stallings.

Although the squad is not as numerous as in years past this possible handicap is compensated by the average weight of the line and backfield, which exceeds 170 pounds. Co-captain Greenlee is the heaviest man on the squad, tipping the beam at 210 pounds. As a result of the high caliber of performance in the backfield during early season practice, Coach Verdell has high gains of turning out a ground-gaining backfield, one of the last season's serious deficiencies. WILLIAMS WINS VICTORY SCORE Tallies Touchdown in Last 2 Minutes To Give Tech Game B. Williams, Armstrong flashy back, gave his team the margin of victory over Howard High, of Wilmington. Friday, when he smashed through the visitors' line in the last two minutes of play to score the winning touchdown. Williams added the point after the score. The two teams fought a neck-and-neck battle until the last quarter, when Williams put on his act that won the contest. The final score was 19 to 12. Howard High pushed over the first touchdown in a passing attack in the first stanza. Tech evened the score at 6-1 when Turpin ploughed through 10 yards of tacklers for a score. In the third quarter each team scored, deadlocking the count at 12-all. Williams took things in his own hands in the final session and dashed off tackle for the winning touchdown. Lorton Triumps In Opening Grid Contest The Lorton football team outplayed the Alexandria Mohawks in their first contest of the season at Lorton, to the score of 13-0. It was a hard-fought game of straight football from start to finish. Hutchinson, Pleasant and Williams as ball carriers, showed to considerable advantage in securing first downs.

SIDELIGHTS ON TIGER-BISON TILT In the training room before the game men were enthusiastic. Trainers briskly massaged the muscles that later on were to bring victory around that corner where prosperity had been last seen. Then the rush for the big Short Line bus that brought the team from Washington. It was so large there was difficulty in getting around one of those Virginia clay road curves. It looked like a Howard-Lincoln classic if you can forget the field at St. Paul. The St. Paul uniforas, were like the Lincoln, yellow outfits. The Howard blue and white showed up like a breath of Turk. Day. Spotless helmets tasted red clay in short order as the first play ended with St. Paul looking best. St. Paul scored a touchdown, missed goal in first quarter. In the second period St. Paul scored again and kicked goal after the touchdown. Hello! Where's Howard? There came the Bisons with a series of spectacular trick plays and a mess of honest-to-God-guts to score their first touchdown and kicked goal. Thirteen-seven with St. Paul guessing at the end of the third quarter. That last half was any man's excitement.

Coach Tom Verdell was not overwhelmed with praises for his Bisons after the St. Paul encounter in which the Tigers of Lawrenceville held Howard to a close score last Saturday. The one point margin gave the Bisons the contest. It was the toe of "Sallie" Hall that saved the day when he booted the ball through the uprights after a Howard touchdown late in the game. The Tiger clan took Howard by surprise in the opening session and before the Bisons knew what it was all about the Episcopalians had passed to a touchdown. After a good bawling out between halves the Verdellmen came back and showed some of their old time pep and spirit. Verdell has been tightening up here and there since Saturday and many weak spots have been strengthened. The affair with West Virginia this week ought to give a true insight into the team's ability to hold its own during the rest of the campaign.

The Bisons ought to come through this week, but the men of the Mountains always have been noted for having a bunch of ball towers who know how to give and take although they may not know much about the fine points of the game, they can stand a lot of punishment under fire and can also give in return.

WILBERFORCE,10; BLUEFIELD,6 Scurry, Andrews And Hart Aid Bulldogs In Victory WILBERFORCE, Ohio.—With a vastly superior line to the one last week, and showing true Bulldog tenacity, the Wilberforce University eleven gave Bluefield's Blue Devils a thrilling fight for a 10-6 victory, here Saturday. The Bluefieldians were favorites at the outset, but they were unable to rally beyond one goal. Scurry's educated toe, and the line plunging of Jack Hart and Cecil Andrews were outstanding for Wilberforce. Scurry's beautiful drop kick from Bluefield's 15-yard line shortly after the game had bagun gave Wilberforce a great advantage Rittig, outstanding guard on the Wilberforce eleven, returned to the game for the first time this season and was in every play.

Dunbar opened their home game series this afternoon (Friday) at Walker Memorial Stadium with Manassas Industrial Institute. Manassas and Dunbar did not play last year because of a schedule conflict. According to reports Manassas' high functioning machine with Tibbs, Field and Bolden in the back field, and Farr, Fitchue, W. Hall, L. Hall and Artis in the line will be hard to beat. Armstrong meets Douglass in Baltimore, Friday. Indications are that this will be one of the thrilling games of the season. Both teams have sails set for the championship. Howard High plays a non-conference game this week. Armstrong defeated Howard Hi, 19 to 12, but the Generals had to struggle throughout the last quarter to break a 12 to 12 tie score. Armstrong's touchdown drive started in the last two minutes of play. The Howard High boys showed their superiority by the use of the forward pass. The Delaware lads attempted 14 forward passes and completed 11 for 114 yards. The two touchdowns resulted from marches down the field. Coach Naylor has a fine passing in Loper, the passer and Benson, cleverly snatching them out of the air in the open spaces between the secondary defense. The Cardozo-Stanton game at Washington brings together two of the unbeaten eleven, and promises to be one of this week's outstanding conference games. Last year Cardozo won, 6 to 0. The Stanton team is more aggressive than last year. Results Last Week Armstrong, 19; Howard, 12. Stanton, 6; Dunbar, 0. Cardozo, 6; Bowie, 0 (non-conference).

Harry Jackson, recruit halfback of the Wolverine, circled the famous "Broad-river" Dawkins' end for the score. All attempts for extra points were failures. Again in the second quarter with a complete change in the backfield line-up, Shag Jones, Red Moore, and Spurlock replacing Harry Jackson, Hadley, and Hollinsworth respectively, the Brownns staged a drive from midfield to make their second marker. D. Smith completed a 20-yard pass to Jack Thornton, placing the ball on State's 30-yard line, Moore, Spurlock and Shag Jones made good gain on line plays, but the score came when D.

Morgan Bears Prepare For Three Home Tilt BALTIMORE, Md.-The Morgan Bears crawled into their lair last Saturday for a three weeks' hibernation, during which time they expect to turn back the onslaughts of the toughest foes in the C.I.A.A. The first on the program is the tough Union University eleven on October 15. Because of the fact that a Morgan squad has never triumphed over a Union eleven, the Bears are sharpening their claws especially for this contest. They haven't forgotten the not so long ago when Inman Breux, then stella back at the Richmond school, and now Coach at A.T., galloped about 75 yards for a touchdown. The third foe to invade the Bear den will be Hampton, present C.I.A.A. champions. This is homecoming a.D. champions. This is game has been moved from the campus to Bugle Field, the field made famous by the Black Sox. Thousands of fans are expected to see this contest. NEWSfa SPORT WORLD.

Changes In Football Rules cASrnes “nares Moths sete) Last year ee. —this was \ We a Special Price) \: Now! Genuine SUITS 9 45 for only The same quality ... the same Sere iva tes Saneghe ¢Qomhop *. as. 715 14thSt.N.W. - By BENJAMIN WASHINGTON (Sec’y Eastern Board of OMiciats? Question. Kindly expiain the difference between the rules of 1931 and those of 1932 in relation to substitutions. _ ‘Answer. Under the rules of 1931, a player withdrawn from the game may return at any time ex- cept jf the quarter in whieb he is withdrawn. This permits a player, under the new rules tc return to the game ir each subsequent quar- ter to that in which he is with- drawn. Therefore it is possible for a player to return to the game three times if he is withdrawn during the first quarter and re- enters in each succeeding quarter. This should work to the advan- tage of the players and should greatly reduce the number of in- juries suftered by players who heretofore were kept in game for their prowess regardless of their stamina. : ‘o facilitate the umpire in keep- ing the record of substitutions cor- rect coaches are yow resorting to the method of sending with each Substitute.a slip of paper contain- ing his name, number, and posi- ep and the name of the person jor whom he is substituting. Because of penalties for delay- ing the game in sending in men to replace players at the wrong time, the rules now provide that sub- stitutions may be made only whén time is out for some other pur- poet, except for the replacement of an injured player. Should a substitute fail to re- port the penalty is five yards. In the event that. the incoming substititte should — communicate with his team mates, even to the extent of saying, “Come on, boys, let's win this game,” or utter any other expression, the referee would inflict the penalty of 15 yards. Should the coach be thoughtless enough to make an illegal substi- tution, such as, return a player during the same quarter in which he is withdrawn, the penalty is very severe, as follows: “The player shall be suspended from the game and his team oc bbe penstized 25 yards ftom spot where the ball is about to be put in play, when the illegal sub- stitution is discovered.” THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1932 nn A ’ ini for Safe Gripping Non-Skid Firestone Tires | Laperat trade-in allowance—now—gn all Firestone 4 Oy ; s ; | High Speed and Heavy Duty Tires!

On Thursday, October 6, Fisk University and alumni of Fisk the country over will again do homage to the group of young men and women which sixty-one years ago challenged the world to come to the aid of a few visionaries whose dream has become the Fisk of today. In 1871, this band of young men and women, born in slavery, named from that passage in Leviticus, proclaiming a year of "jubilee," started out to get help for their school. They went to Europe in 1873 and sang before Queen Victoria, the King and Queen of Holland and other royalty. On that first tour they earned enough to build Jubilee Hall, where freshman girls now live. Mr. Andrew J. Allison, alumni secretary, who is in charge of the Jubilee Day celebration, has planned a full program. There is to be an early morning hike with breakfast on the grounds of the Girls' Vocational School. The special services in the Fisk Memorial Chapel will begin at 11 o'clock. At this time there will be a three-minute period of silent prayer when all Fiskites, wherever they are, will how their heads in reverence to the nine men and women who had both courage and faith. After the prayer the Mozart Society will sing "Faith of Our Fathers." Then the Scripture will be read in commemoration of George L. White, who, when his band was weary and discouraged to the point of giving up, cheered them by reading passages of Scripture. Mrs. Miranda Winter-McKissack will follow the reading by a solo, "In Bright Mansions Above." There are two of the original Jubilee Singers living, Mrs. Mabel Lewis Imes, the we, lovely lady who proudly points herself out among the Singers in the picture hanging in the Fisk chapel and Mrs. Maggie Porter Cole, who for the first time in fifty years visited Fisk last year, charming everyone with her graciousness and fascinating accounts of her experiences as a Jubilee Singer and teacher. Unfortunately, neither of the two Singers will be with Fisk this year to help celebrate this great day. But messages from both of them will be read, "Swing Low Sweet Charriot," one of the most beautiful of the spirituals, is the cry for help from the anguished soul of Ella Sheppard Moore. The spirit of Ella Sheppard Moore will be the subject of a short paper read by her great-granddaughter, Julia Moore. Martha Sutton, Catherine Van Buren, Jerome Wright, Harold N. Patton, and Rutherford H. Strider, under the leadership of Mrs. James A. Myers, will sing "Steal Away to Jesus." After a short address by President Jones, a prayer of thanksgiving will close the service. In the afternoon at 3 o'clock there will be a historical tour of Nashville, Rev. T. M. Brumfield, Dean Lloyd Cofer, and Prof. A. F. Shaw have planned to take the students seventy years back is the making of their nation and their Fisk. There will be a dinner in Jubilee at six, honoring Miss Mary E. Spence, the daughter of Adam K. Spence, one of the early leaders of Fisk. After dinner she will talk in the Jubilee Parlors to the new Fiskites and tell them of the Fisk she knew and love. At 8 o'clock the annual faculty banquet will be held. Mr. William Sapp, of Athens, Ga., is the new editor of the Fisk Herald. He is taking the place of Miss Nita Blackwell, of St. Louis, Mo., who will not be at Fisk until the second quarter because of illness. OMEGA PLANS MANY INTERESTING PROJECTS FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR Under the leadership of Alfred Scott, Bassileus, Alpha Chapter of the Omega Psi Phi Farterthy has formulated an extensive program which includes many interesting social and intellectual activities for the ensuing year. The undergraduate unit of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity held its first meeting of the year at the Omega House, 1913 Thirteenth street, northwest, Saturday. Omega Players to Give Play According to plans approved by Alpha Chapter, James Butcher, recent graduate of the School of Dramatics at the University of Illinois, has been appointed director of the famous Omega Players whose last presentation, "Charley's Aunt," was acclaimed as being the most outstanding dramatic production ever given in collegiate circles. Through Mr. Butcher, the Omega Players will appear in a comedy vehicle, "The Boomerang," at the Armstrong High School auditorium during the latter part of November. Several of the original "Charley's Aunt" actors will be in the cast of "The Boomerang." The Omega Fraternity is planning a series of public forums to be held at the 1913 Thirteenth street, home. Prominent speakers will be secured for these occasions. Teas, dances, open and closed smokers are included. The newly-installed officers of Alpha Chapter of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity are Alfred Scott, basileus; Charles Lofton, keeper of records and seals; and Robert Allen, keeper of finance. William Porsythe was elected house manager. Alfre Scott appointed nine Orlando Robeson Weds Washington Girl Orlando Robeson, "Dreamy Eyed" crooner who appeared at the Howard Theatre with Claude Hopkins last week obtained license towed Miss Ethel E. Buckner, 22. of 2029 Flager place, northwest, Friday. Robeson's age was given as 23 and his residence in New York City. Rev. E. C. Smith performed the ceremony. TOLAN-METCALF REVIEWED IN OCT. SOUTH'N WORKM'N TOLAN-METCALF REVIEWED IN OCT. SOUTH'N WORKM'N HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Va.—Emphasizing the great work of the two young Negro racers, Tolan and Metcalf, who came out first and second in the one hundred meter race at the Olympic Games held at Los Angeles during this past summer, President Arthur Howe, of Hampton Institute, uses in the October number of the Southern Workman these two young Americans as symbols of what the Negro race has accomplished with the few opportunities presented to it since the Civil War. His editorial, which opens the October number of the Southern Workman, pleads for a more sympathetic consideration of what this people has given to America and what it still affords in economic, spiritual, and moral value. A tribute to Miss Charlotte Thorn and her significant work at Calhoun School in Alabama is written in the same number by one of her former students. The director of the school of education of Hampton Institute, Mr. William Anthony Aery, reviews from first hand knowledge of its development the work of the Phelps Stokes Fund and its very close relation to Negro progress in this country. Mr. Aery's twenty-seven years of work at Hampton Institute as publication secretary and director of the school of education have brought him into close contact with interracial relationships and he has been able to follow very closely the progress made in this significant work. He is one of the editors of the Negro Encyclopedia, which is being fostered by the Phelps Stokes Fund. George W. Blount, field secretary at Cheyney State College, Pa. describes the successful efforts of his school to furnish weekly vacations during the summer for the poor Negro children of Philadelphia. Educational Hero The amazing rise from near ruin of the Hungerford School in Florida under the enthusiastic direction of a graduate of Hampton Institute is described by Emily K. Herron. With the board of trustees ready to give up the ship, Lorenzo Hall persuaded them to hold on and to give him an opportunity to show the possibilities in Hungerford. With a band of heroic teachers, who for weeks lived on mere starvation rations, he was able to create some order out of chaos and to bring the school back to an unprecedented usefulness. The story of this struggle is an inspiring one. Also in this number of the Southern Workman, Rose Henderson, an authority on Negro and Indian art, contributes an interesting article on "Modern Indian Craftsmen and Their Products." There is a review of the volume on Negro Housing just published by a committee of the President's Conference on Home Building and Home Ownership, as well as several other usual departments. "The Workman" "The Workman" The Southern Workman, now in its sixty-first year, was begun by the founder of Hampton Institute, General Samuel Chapman Armstrong, in 1872, and has continued without interruption as a monthly magazine devoted to the interests of the Negro and Indian populations. For years it has provided a unique forum for the discussion of race problems. It occupies a singular position in this field in that it does not attempt to force any one point of view but serves as a medium for crystallizing opinion regarding the important question of race relationships. Its main emphasis is always played upon definite and significant accomplishment in this field. Although published under the auspices of Hampton Institute, it is not merely an organ for the spread of this school's attitude. It is of interest to both white and Negro and any who are interested in the progress of the latter. BAP.RY FARM NEWS The funeral rites for Joseph Allison were held from the Metropolitan Zion Wesley Church Tuesday. The deceased was an employee of the United States Treasury and well known in this community. Another young man in the community, Lawrence Newton died Monday. Funeral services were he! Wednesday from the Campbell A.M.E. Church with Rev. W. Scott conducting. A whist party was given Monday at the home of Mrs. Rosa Webb Taylor on Sheridan road with over twenty-four guests present. Rev. G. H. Berkley, associate pastor of Vermont Avenue Baptist Church, will speak at the Campbell Church October 28 at a church rally supper. committees to work out various details which will be necessary in the successful functioning of Alpha Chapter and the Fraternity as a "KONGO" SHOWS HOW WHITE MEN TRICK TRIBESMEN For dark and tricky ways the "heathen Chinee" is not nearly so peculiar as the ways of Walter Huston with the heathen black of Africa in "Kongo" the waird jungle melodrama which Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer is sending to the screen of the Lincoln Theatre starting Friday. In bringing to the screen his celebrated New York stage role of "Deadlegs" Flint, Huston resorts to tricks of black magic in holding the rebellious savage tribes in subjection. Once Lived in Africa According to William Cowen, who directed "Kongo" and who once lived in the part of Africa with which the story deals, black magic is nothing more than the tricks which white magicians play on their theatre audiences, but the black tribesmen believe they are supernatural. Practically overflowing with MacDonald is "The Vanishing Frontier," a melodrama of the Old West, which comes to the Lincoln Theatre Wednesday. The good old Scotch clan is represented by the leading villian and the leading comedian in the picture. The villian is Wallace MacDonald, and the comedian, J. Farrell MacDonald. Though they're not related, they're each veterans of the films. Johnny Mack Brown is starred in "The Vanishing Frontier," which features Evalyn Knapp, ZaSu Pitts, Raymond Hatton, and J. Farrell MacDonald in the leading roles. "BACK STREET" NOW SHOWING AT BOOKER T. As a human drama of human hearts, no motion picture shown on a local screen in several seasons has excelled "Back Street," the Universal screen play which opens at the Booker T. Theatre, Friday. This noteworthy production is an adaptation of Fannie Hurst's widely read story of the same name, and the film version does full justice to the original novel of the noted authoress. Irene Dunne, who plays the leading feminine role, is altogether delightful as the spirited young girl who finds true love when she least expected it, and gives up everything else in life to follow the dictates of her heart. That her lover is a married man cannot prevent an affair which continues over a span of twenty years, because it is vital, fundamental, soul-stirring. The principal male part is played by John Boles, whose fame as a singer has given way to an established reputation as an actor of unusual depth of feeling. The sincerity of Boles and Miss Dunne make what might have been a tawdry affair a thing of transcendent tenderness, in which the principals at all times hold the sympathy of the audience. June Clyde, William Bakewell, Arletta Duncan, Doris Lloyd, George Meeker, Walter Catlett, Paul Weigel, Jane Darewell and others do sterling work in "Back Street," and round out a cast of players of unusual excellence.

He has played to the delight of thousands. So valuable have been his services that leading phonograph companies and booking agencies have just emerged from a bitter court fight for his services. Louis Armstrong has brought something entirely new to the musical world. His characteristic singing of songs interspersed with cornet work has won for him universal acclaim. Hardly above a whisper and very neat in dress he steps to the microphone and croons in such a manner that strikes a responsive chord in his audience. While playing an engagement in Philadelphia he is said to have made 100 high Cs in succession. Feeling that he is being duped, a patron arose from the audience and accused him of using a trick cornet. "OL'MAN SATAN OPENING DRAWS RAP FROM CRITICS Whether Donald Heywood, author of "Ol' Man Satan," thought that the white press was kinder to his efforts in his latest claim to production fame—or whether he smarts under the correct criticism directed against his really bad motion picture, "The Black King," by the entire Negro New York press whom he, for some reason or other, excluded from the opening of "Ol' Man Satan" at the Forrest Theatre Tuesday night, his new play of 125 people, 37 scenes and incidental music by Donald Heywood and directed by William Shilling got under way after four months' rehearsal without pay and several postponements. And while we saw the play we refrain from expressing our own opinions other than to commend the great choir singing and the work of Abe Comithiere, Don Micheals, Walter Richardson, Mme. Georgette Harvey, Mike Jackson, Lawrence Chenault, Lionel Monagas, Edna Thomas, Mary Jane Watkins, Heyes Pryon and Alice Ramsey. The daily press will no doubt please Mr. Heywood even in its wildest severity. Weak by Comparison Weak by Comparison Says the New York Evening Post: "The story of 'Ol Man Satan' is a Negro mammy's conception of the story of the rise and fall of Satan and her mental picture of it is therefore, far from authentic. Mr. Heywood admits that 'Ol Man Satan' got its inspiration from 'The Green Pastures.' To which the Post replies, "Green Pastures' was not only in offensive but actually a deeply religious work. 'Ol Man Satan' with all its solemnity, interspersed with slap stick, and its anything but simple and child-like view of the Bible, is cheap, tawdry, and occasionally downright unpleasant. The acting in general was very bad—but the bearded ones were worst than the rest." The New York American says: "The Green Pastures' nourished a synthetic quality of pathos and a peculiar quiet dignity; last night's play often became raucous and sank to pathos." "Lacks Inspiration" Speaking out clearly, the World-Telegram remarks: "For it lacks the inspiration and the fluid continuity of the immediate predecessor." The Sun hits back: "In spite of the zealous and tireless efforts of the seventy or more performers, 'Ol' Man Satan' seemed weak and uninspired. Memories of the 'Green Pastures' are stronger than the living presence of 'Ol' Man Satan." Every performer who has stuck by Donald Heywood to bring this production to the front deserves the greatest praise for sheer pluck and trust to luck. For the profession knows and actors in the cast, most of whom I know personally, have told me that the only money they received during four months' rehearsal was $2.00, just two weeks before the show opened. Not even car fare was provided from Harlem to Broadway. Two girls are reported to have fallen out from hunger. Many walked daily from Harlem to make the rehearsals downtown, a distance of fifteen miles. Cooking meals on the stage to share among themselves from their own meager funds and sweeping the theatre stage daily, taking the place of men who should have been hired for this purpose, were other innovations shared by this Week Beginning Friday, Oct.14, 1932 Radio's Greatest Sensations . In Person . . MillsBrothers FOUR BOYS AND A GUITAR Surrounded by a Massive Stage Show "The Hat Check Girl" With BEN LYONS :: SALLIE EILERS No Advance in Prices HOT FROM HARLEM OPENS TOUR AT HOWARD THEATRE With Bill "Bojangles" Robinson holding the spotlight, the new edition of "Hot From Harlem" opened its season's tour at the Howard this week. The show, a sparkling and dazzling dance revue, is outstanding because it differs from the usual shows in that no master of ceremonies is used and the revue moves along at a rapid pace. Of course, "Bojangles," who really needs no introduction to you, is the feature of the show. Robinson, who, incidentally, is around the half-century mark in years, proves his right to the title, "The King of Tap Lovers." Bill does several numbers with the usual grace and easy style which characterizes him. His own act is climaxed with the popular stair dance which he originated and made famous. Putney Dandridge is back and accompanies Bill at the piano. Another favorite supporting Bill is Ada Brown, Harlem singer. Touted in a bourant shirt and gayly colored bandana, Miss Brown brings down the house with her numbers which include "Please Don't Talk About Me When I'm Gone," and "Tell Me What Mr. Freddie Will Do." The chorus trained by Bill Robinson himself, and most gorgeously costumed, presented three excellent routines. Two local boys, "Bums" Saunders and Eddie Morton, are with the show and perform well in the dances. On the screen, "Bill of Divorcement," a drama in which a man returns from the living dead, is shown. The picture stars John Barrymore with Katherine Hepburn, David Manners and Billie Burke. 3 Injured in Stampede At Strand Theatre Three women were injured in a stampede at the Strand Theatre, Sunday night, when a fire extinguisher fell to the floor. The loud clatter of the extinguisher sent patrons rushing to the exits. Those treated at Casualty Hospital were Helen Smith, 26, 4500 Foote street, northeast; Helen Bell, 22, 1020 Browning place, northeast; and Mary Carter, 28, of Cedar Heights, Md. The women were treated for abrasions about the legs. The theatre is located at Fiftieth and Grand streets, northeast. Concert Singer Marries African Prince In Paris PARIS: Roberta Dodd-Crawford, concert singer of Chicago, was married here Thursday in a civil ceremony to Prince Kojo Touvalou Houenou, heir apparent to the vacant throne of Dahomey, in French West Africa. The couple will go to Africa for the religious services, with traditional rites of the former Damoney royalty. The bridegroom is a nephew of the dethroned King Behanzin.

The Mills Brothers without a doubt is the greatest attraction in the theatrical world, and the demand to see them is the signal for overflow audiences wherever they appear. So great has been the demand for seats during their engagement at the Howard, the management will establish a precedent in Washington, by giving six special midnight performances, namely: Friday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights. Seats are reserved and are now on sale for these special midnight performances. Indications are the Mills Brothers will shatter all box office records and prove the banner attraction of the local theatrical season. The photoplay feature supplementing the big stage show is "The Hat Check Girl," co-starring Sally Eilers and Ben Lyon, one of the most meritorious of recent productions.

He stated that the continued growth of the church depends upon this being carried out; also that the ills that grow out of malice and envy and hate will separate the soul from the body and then send it to eternal hell. Brotherly love is the dominant force. A vote of thanks was given the Usher Board and the Ladies' Auxiliary for the lovely new Hymnals which were distributed Sunday morning; also to Deacon and Mrs. Burnett Brooks for the interest shown in placing new curtains around the choir's dais.

PENROSE—The Artcraft Circle, Mrs. Florence J. Smith, president, gave a pound party on Wednesday night for the benefit of one family in the neighborhood which his met with adversity. The club was carrying out the Biblical injunction that one should love his neighbor as himself. NEGRO EDITORS SPEAK (Continued from page 1) folk, Va., under the caption, "Solemn Words and Phrases," says: "Those were the solemn words and phrases—empty though they were—that fell from the lips of President Hoover in response to Mr. Simmons' prayer that he say something 'in our heaviest hour' that would overcome the 'distress that has overtaken us' and refute the charges that 'the party has deserted the principles that sustained it.'" "Mr. Hoover referred his distressed and over-anxious adherents and supplicants to the Republican platform. Let us now refer them, and all who may read to a part of the record of Mr. Hoover's administration: '1. Entire elimination of Negroes from participation in party coun- cils in the South. Arrest and attempt to convict of a felony Perry W. Howard, national committee man from Mississippi, who was guilty of nothing more than following Republican precedent and practice in the discharge of his duties. "2. Continuation of discrimination against colored in applications for the civil service through the netarious photograph system, and progressive elimination of Negroes from every branch of the service. "3. The deliberate reduction of the famous Negro regiments in the standing army; the 10th Cavalry and the 24th Infantry, from the status of soldiers to one of stable boys and menials. dred hand-picked Republican servants who craved only the photograph of the President. The spokesman pleaded: "Speak, Mr. President; tell us that Lincoln still lives." It is said that you refuse to have your picture taken with us. Speak, Mr. President; tell us that you will have your picture taken with us. "The presence of one hundred Negro Republicans on the South lawn of the White House last week was caused by the panic stricken leaders of the Republican High Command, who have found out to their consternation that Negroes this year are turning from the empty promises of the Hooverites to the Democratic party as a rebuke for the mistreatment handed "4. Sending of colored Gold Star mothers to Europe in freight steamers with mothers of the other race enjoyed the tour in palatial passenger steamers. "5. Appointment of Judge Parker to the Supreme Court. (He failed of confirmation.) Judge Parker had in former years expressed himself in favor of the nullification of the fifteenth amendment. "6. Ruthless eviction of the 'Bonus Expeditionary Forces', made up of distraught ex-service men, white and black, from Washington, without affording them any tangible relief. "7. Refusal to employ Negro labor on the tremendous Government Boulder Dam project in Nevada. "8. Virtual enslavement of Negroes employed upon the Government rehabilitation of the Mississippi River flood area. "9. Rank discrimination against Negroes in the operations of the Federal Farm Loan Board. "It should not be necessary in the midst of a campaign for any group of any President's partisans to go to him and pray that he say something that would 'dispatch us back to our people . . . with words and solemn phrases that will stir them.' The record of the President's administration should speak louder than 'solemn words and phrases.' But in this case the record falls flat. And in his dilemma Mr. Hoover turns to the meaningless words of the Republican platform, which have been repeated for every quadrennium over a period of 70 years, only to suffer more and more violence at the hands of each succeeding administration." The Pittsburgh Courier, in a front page editorial, said: "Give us your photograph, and tell us 'Lincoln still lives,' and we will do the rest. This is the substance of the plea made to President Hoover last week by one hum- dred hand-picked Republican servants who craved only the photograph of the President. The spokesman pleaded: "Speak, Mr. President; tell us that Lincoln still lives." It is said that you refuse to have your picture taken with us. Speak, Mr. President; tell us that you will have your picture taken with us. "The presence of one hundred Negro Republicans on the South lawn of the White House last week was caused by the panic stricken leaders of the Republican High Command, who have found out to their consternation that Negroes this year are turning from the empty promises of the Hooverites to the Democratic party as a rebuke for the mistreatment handed the Negro for his 65 years of unbroken loyalty. The spectacle was sickening. There stood one hundred Negroes, who rave about being leaders of their race, asking simply for a photograph of the President. One Negro spoke for all, and he asked to be told that Lincoln still lives. He does not know that Lincoln and his policies have been dead lo these many years. They have been dead ever since Walter Brown organized Lilywhiteism; they have been dead ever since the Republican Party found that it could win a national election without the black vote. There stood one hundred Negroes, dumb as oysters, speechless and helpless, all because they had been given a ride to Washington to get a photograph of the President. What a price to pay for one photograph! "But there they stood—Dr. Emmett J. Scott was there; Charlie Mitchell was there; J. Finley Wilson was there—leaders, all. What did they say? Not a word!" "And Dr. L. K. Williams, the great Baptist leader, was there. He had his chance, but what did he say? Williams forgors to mention to President Hoover any of the insults and indignities heaped upon us by the Republican Rule. He forged lynchings; he forgot our Gold Star Mothers and the cattle ship; he forgot Judge Parker; he forgot Lily-Whiteism. He forgot the wicked Civil Service practices. He forgot everything a leader is supposed to remember when he gets a chance to speak for his people. He was petrified—what a failure! What did Dr. John R. Hawkins say? He is the great Methodist leader. He knows of did Hawkins say for "His People?" ally by the same Mr. Hoover. What did Hawkins say for "His People"? Not a word!! All Hawkins wanted was the photograph. But why go further with the shameful silence of the One Hundred? They stood there like monuments, stiff as stone and afraid to say one word for their group. This is the saddest spectacle Negroes have ever witnessed in the history of the country. They might well have said: "Though you slay me, yet will I serve you." "But listen to this, as the President speaks to the One Hundred: 'The right of liberty, justice and full opportunity is yours.' He might have said, but try and get it, if you can. He said it is ours, but he did not say when we would get it or what he would do to see that we get it. He has his record on this subject. Turn to it and read. Find one word he has uttered in our behalf to get justice and liberty. "There stood the One Hundred. Not a man in a carload of them! Not a word said for the millions of Negroes who need and cry for a fearless leader in times like these. "I appreciate your presence here today and the evidence of your friendship." Thus closed the expression of appreciation for the presence of the One Hundred. "If the election were not upon us, where would the One Hundred have been last Saturday? What a false and empty gesture for Negro votes. What a late hour to have a picture taken for political purposes. "Negroes are not fooled. They stand away from the One Hundred as so many men afflicted with disease. The real Negro, the intelligent Negro, the young Negro, the patriotic Negro who puts love of country above party,—a dead party—will never sell his support for a photograph, — not even of Hoover." The Chicago Defender writes on "That Thoughtless Few." "Speaking for thousands, yes, millions, Mr. President, not the 'thoughtless few,' but strong men and women who appeal to you to invoke those 'traditions' which were made immortal by Lincoln and transmitted by him as a sacred trust to those who should follow: The countless thousands who could not stand with you on the White House steps on Saturday last are not politicians seeking personal preference, but, nevertheless, Republicans who still believe in the 'traditions' of the party. And had they had the privilege of being present at the conference in question, they would have told you the truth, what you no doubt would have delighted in knowing, and that is that the people in whose hands you have intrusted the carrying out of the 'traditions' of the party have defaulted in the responsibilities that the trust imposes and are no longer serving the party. "An honest delegation would have told you, Mr. President, that the 'tongue cursing' was not from a 'thoughtless few', but from a great mass of citizens of the race, who are in sympathy with their racial identity in the South who are being made victims of peonage, in fact of physical slavery by men who speak for the Republican party. "The race citizens are not asking for words and solemn phrases. We have had words and solemn phrases too long. What the race wants is action that will speak louder than words. Let this action come through the employment where the Government is expend ing millions in public improvement in various parts of the country. We need no committee to continually pledge us to the Republican party. What we want is some one to pledge the Republican party to us. We have never forsaken the Republican party. The divorcement has always been on the other side. What we really need is some one to speak for us who is not living off of the party, thus hampering them from speaking our convictions." "Soft-Soaped by the President" "Negrees throughout the nation will be interested in the recent 'pilgrimage' to the White House made by a number of leaders (2) of the group estimated to be about 300, when they stood last Saturday morning at eleven o'clock 'upon a terrace between the White House and the executive offices, bathed in the bright sun of a warm day—the representatives of the 'American Negro', and were addressed by the President after we had been spoken for by a group of publicity seekers, grandstanders, and persons who though questionably sincere, evidently know not the trials and cares of their own group. "As if we have not heard the same stuff for decades from every president since Theodore Roosevelt, with the net result that the constitutional rights of our group have been abridged more and more with each Republican successor. "Negroes know that the Republican party of today is not the party of Lincoln! Roscoe knows it as well as anybody else. He and every one of those more or less 300 'center of stagers' knows that what we want is action, not promises, and that Messrs. Presidents Taft, Harding, Coolidge, and the present incumbent, Mr. Hoover, have said and promised the same thing just before election and in their messages to Congress. "What interests Negro voters is the execution of some of these promises, not on a ministership to Haiti, or Santo Domingo, or Liberia, or Sierra Leone, or the kingdom of 'Nod,' but some of this day work on Hoover Dam, the Mississippi basin project and other work for which their loyalty in time of war, their innate citizenship give them the constitutional right to enjoy, in order that they may make better homes, school their children, pay their taxes and otherwise make good citizens as other groups with far less claim than we have, are permitted to do. "Negroes South want the President (in whom is vested the executive responsibility or authority of this government) to enforce the constitution and see to it that they are accorded full right of suffrage as decreed by the constitution and Supreme Court ruling. "Other Republican presidents have had their day to practically no avail. Mr. Hoover's four years are pitiful from our point of view, and the 'Pilgrims' (?) who posed as our spokesmen, did Negroes a gross injustice we believe, when they went to him and pitched our present day plight on the camp ground of the 19th century. "We say let them go back to Mr. Hoover, if they and he have time and ask him to answer those questions asked him by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and also explain why he has not done these things for the group in the past four years. Let Roscoe tell him to 'Speak, Mr. President; speak and say why you have forgotten us until you are standing for re-election and need us so badly!'" The St. Louis Argus says: "The President's response, of course, was anxiously awaited by his visitors. Just a word from his lips was ready to be received with great applause, and therefore, most of the conferences returned from the White House pretty well satisfied with what the President said. They interpreted the remarks of the President to mean everything they had hoped to hear. Mr. Hoover, among other things, said: "The right of liberty, justice, and equal opportunity, is yours. The President of the United States is ever obligated to the maintenance of those sacred trusts to the full extent of his authority." "These words from the President have invited a challenge from us. We here and now call upon the President to make good his obligation 'To maintain those sacred trusts to the full extent of his authority.' The President of the United States has the authority to issue an executive order, abolishing segregation in the Governmental departments in Washington. He has the authority to enforce the Constitution of the United States because he is the Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy, and it is he who appoints the Attorney General of the United States. With this power in his hands, disfranchisement, segregation and the many other ills from which the colored people suffer can be changed almost overnight. The President of the United States can abolish race segregation in the departments in Washington by an executive order just the same as an executive order from the President forced the bonus campers from the District of Columbia. "We call attention to those things because we think that this is no time to pat party leaders on the back and tell them that the Negroes are satisfied with the present condition of things. We think that those of us who are still in the party ranks ought to be serious enough to tell the leaders in no unmistakable items about the things that are causing the much deflection from, the Republican ranks on the part of the Negroes. We ought to tell the party leaders that we have no special love for the Democrats, and that the attitude of the G. O. P, toward the Negro must change, test a rank and file repudiate us as leaders. We think that this kind of talk, plain talk, is very necessary at this time if the G.O.P. hopes to win."

Liger, 85, 2023 Ver- mont avenue, northwest, a taxicab driver, was held for the action of the grand jury. following an \in- quest at the District Morgue, on Wednesday, into the death of Al- bert M. Charron, 34-year-old white electrician. Charron, who lives at 2920 Penn sylvania avenue, was struck by the cab while he was leaning over a manhole in the middle of traf- fic on Union Station Plaza. The accident occurred about 8:30 in the morning when automobile traffie was heavy at the point where the Man was struck, Bus Barely Missed Man Raymond C. ‘Nicholson, a white bus driver, said he was in front of the taxicab which struck the man. Nicholson said he had to pull. sud- denly to the left to avoid striking Charron and later remarked that the man was working in a danger- ous place since there were no signs or other signals to warn mo- torists of the man working in the center of traffic. * Liser was following the bus and when it pulled suddenly aside he kept straight in the line of traffic and did not’see Nicholson until the man had been struck. Liser was going west on Massachusetts aye- nue on the Plaza at the time of the accident, Cab Could Not Stop Officer William T. O’Brien tes- tified that the eab driver was fol- lowing traffic when the bus sud- denly swerved to the left. It was pointed out that it was impossible for the driver to stop in time to avoid striking the man, Earl C, Wood, a car cleatier, tes- tified that he saw Charron leave the sidewalk and walk to the man- hole, lift the cover and reach both hands inside as if he were repair- ing a conduit line. Wood said the bus barely missed the man, and it was impossible for the ea driver to avoid striking the workman. Liser was represented by Attor- ney J, C. Waters, while Attorney Harry A. Grant ‘represented the Red Cab Company. RUN RUNNER IN RASH WTHORY AGENT MACHINE Ambrose C.

Says Race Is Isof of Leadership "The mass Negro group is floundering about, some marking time, others retreating and no progress whatsoever in widen e due to the total absence of any consequential leadership since the passing of Booker Washington," the speaker emphasized, "and unless a thoughtful, unselfish, earnest and honest leadership emerges from the ranks of the intelligent young men of the day the race is hopelessly lost. "Twelve millions of Negroes watched with bated breath when those who posed as leaders approached the President of the United States last week, hoping that some appeal would be made to the nation's chief executive for a definite expression concerning the adoption of legislation that would bring worthwhile recognition and protection for our Negro citizenship," Attorney Porter declared, "but the keen disappointment over their miserable failure to utter a single word that could be construed as an appeal for their race has been expressed in every part of our land. Lauds Washington's Leadership Ludus Washington's leadership "Possibly no other prominent member of the Negro race came in for a greater share of underserved criticism than did the late Booker T. Washington, but men of all races, at home and abroad, look back on his wise and sane advice as the most beneficial that the human family was offered during the present century, and thoughtful people in America as well as Europe, Asia and Africa are fast adopting his program of life as the most practicable and feasible," the speaker continued. "Since the passing of Doctor Washington, none has appeared on the scene who could take up the reins of leadership for the purpose of bringing the race out of the greatest state of confusion that has ever confronted it, and today we find the crumbled ruins of many Negro business institutions that were established by successful men under the guidance and assistance of the 'wizzard of Huskegee'; inefficiency rampant in the race's professional life, and religious and educational institutions, with a few exceptions, gasping for breath because of ineffective and dishonest leadership." Youths Urged to Take Command Attorney Porter related to the conference the incident wherein an army on the field of battle was thrown into confusion and came near suffering defeat as all commanding officers fell under gunfire of the approaching army. "A thoughtful young private, realizing the serious predicament of his comrades, rushed to the side of his fallen general, pulled his sword from its sheathe and dashing to the head of the disconcerted men, assumed command, led his men to victory and saved the day for his country. "Thus it must be with the Negro youth of today," the speaker adof the wizard of 'Tuskegee'; inefallen on the field of battle, suffering from gaping wounds in their vital parts caused by the shrapnel of envy, selfishness, greed and jealousy. It remains for some earnest, efficient and thoughtful young soldier to grasp the sword and assume the position of leader of the disconcerted and floundering army of Negroes and lead them to a victory that will bring relief from the suffering endured because of rank discrimination, segregation and of hardship in general as imposed by other races. Must Be Good Followers "The brave soldier who rushed forward to command his fellows had been a $a_{11}$ observant follower of his superior officers, however," the speaker emphasized. "He had served as a private in the ranks in a manner that commanded the confidence and respect of his fellow soldiers. He had obeyed officers and respected his superiors. He accepted training over a sufficient period of time that made him a good soldier and when the opportunity came to him to lead he was qualified. The men who suddenly decided to follow his leadership readily realized his ability. Thus it must be with the young man who may be called upon to assume the role of leader of his race. He must patiently, and thoughtfully, and honestly, and earnestly prepare himself for the important role of leader so that there will be no failure when the tremendous responsibilities of race leadership fall upon his shoulders." Large Delegation Present The East Tennessee Older Boy's Conference includes all schools from Chattanooga to Bristol. The session this year showed the largest attendance and an unsurpassed interest. Monroe Young, Jr., was chosen president for 1932, at the Saturday morning session, and he presided as toastmaster at the banquet Saturday evening. Attorney Porter was introduced by Prof. T. R. Davis, principal of Austin High School. Enjoyable musical selections by the former Austin Quintet and Ralph Williams was a feature of the program that closed with remarks by Prof. Monroe D. Senters. The visitors were guests of the local committee at a theatre party at the Bijou theatre following the banquet. Other addresses during the day Saturday, were delivered by Dr. H. M. Green, and Superintendent Harry Clark, of Knoxville's city schools. On Sunday morning, a conference session, presided over by J. H. Murray, of the State committee, was held at the school building. Unfinished business and a summing up of the conference was a part of the activities, and at 11 o'clock a helpful message was delivered to the conference attendants by Rev. Anderw Paul, at the Shiloh Presbyterian Church. Laboratory Fixture Worth $165 Stolen From H. U. Lewis K. Downing, Dean of the Hydraulic Laboratory of Howard University, reported to Second Precinct police early this week, the loss by theft of a plane toilel aidade, movable fixture for carrying microsomes. The fixtures was valued at $165. It was taken from the laboratory sometime between Monday and Thursday, Dean Downing told police. Police are investigating the case. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1932 MAN MAKES JOB FOR HIMSELF BY HELPING OTHERS MAN MAKES JOB FOR HIMSELF BY HELPING OTHERS Clarence Dorris, Lithuanian by birth, American by adoption, is again helping his fellow man. A tailor by trade, Dorris, with the help of the Salvation Army, has obtained a second-hand sewing machine, some shears, a pressing iron and board and has established a free tailoring service at the "Army's" emergency home at 479 C street, northwest. A few days ago Dorris reached Washington on a job hunting trek that had led him through many cities since leaving his home in Pittsburgh. His funds finally exhausted, he was forced to apply to Adjuntant Gilbert Decker, of the Salvation Army, for help. "I am a good tailor," he told Adjantant Decker. "In Pittsburgh I finally managed to get my own little shop and was doing right well. In years gone by, before the depression which ruined me, I gave to the Community Chest to help others, because it seemed to me that one of the finer things about real Americans is their willingness to help those who need aid. "My funds are gone, but I am still a good tailor. I believe if these men at your Emergency Lodge could have their clothes mended and pressed that they would have a better chance of getting work. If you can find me a sewing machine, shears and other material. I will fix up their clothes." Now the men at the Emergency Lodge are starting forth to seek jobs with well-pressed and neatly-mended clothes. Dennis S.

After coming to Pittsburgh he was for several years a machinist at the Westinghouse Air Brake Works. He was a member of Shelba Lodge, F. & A. M., a Royal Arch and Knights Templar. He is survived by four sons, Morris E. and Charles W. of Chicago, Elmer T. of Pittsburgh, Pa., and Herman P., Lincoln, Md., one daughter, Mrs. Mary E. Jackson, of Pittsburgh and four grandchildren, two great grandchildren, two sisters, Mrs. Rebecca Taylor of Baltimore, Md., and Mrs. Sarah Kays, Steelton, Pa. Herman Socks, has for a number of years, been an employee at the Murray Brothers Printing plant, and has had charge of the printing shop at the National Training School for Women and Girls, Inc. of which Nannie H. Burroughs is head. RANDALL JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL NEWS On Friday, Section 8A-4, under the direction of Miss M. E. Biancio presented a playlet entitled "If." This playlet centered around a high school student who so disliked the subject that her godmother granted her wish to have all mathematics disappear from the fae of the earth. This proved to be a serious handicap to all the people. There was not time on the earth, no telephone numbers, no means of calculating grocery bills or anything. The girl became very sorry and wished mathematics back again. The pupils participating in the playlet were Lunetta Nelson, mistress of ceremonies; Annie Ruff, Mary Bullock, Mary Lee, William Brooks, Virginia Humes, Rideway Marshall, Genevieve Noble, Hattie Ruff, and Thelma Green. In the Physical Training Department, the girls have selected their squad leaders and are engaging in many interesting games and activities. The boys are participating in intersectional soccer during recess, club periods, and after school. On the completion of this program they will engage in football. The following clubs have been formed within; the schools: Amusement, Art, Activities, Boys' Sports, Camp Fire Girls, Electricity, Games, Girl Reserves, Girls Sports, Hobby, Hiking, Sewing, Social Girls Glee Club, Boys Glee Club, Junior Red Cross, Student Council, Aesthetic Dancing and Sports, Typewriting and Business and also a student's orchestra. Dr. Louise Young Lawson, the very charming wife of Mr. Beiford V. Lawson, spent the past weekend in the Capital city. Dr. Lawson is now residing in Baltimore, EMORY B. SMITH HEADS SHAW HIGH PARENT-TEACH'RS New President Advocates Class For Adult Instruction The Shaw Junior High School Parent-Teacher Association held its first meeting of the year in the school auditorium, Wednesday night, with over 300 parents and teachers in attendance. Emory B. Smith, publicity director of Howard University, was elected president of the association. Other officers elected were J. H. Moseley, vice-president; Mrs. J. T. Malony, secretary; and W. A. Goodloe, Shaw teacher, was reelected treasurer for the fourth consecutive term. Members elected to the executive council were W. R. Tucker, Dr. Morris Dodson, Mrs. M. S. Ogle, and the officers of the association. Following his election, Mr. Smith pledged his support to the association and defined a parent-teachers' association as a "co-operation working for the proper facilities to give proper education to its members' children. Mr. Smith also advocated an adult class which would instruct the parents in their future responsibility to their chilical dren. DIRECTOR TEACHES CLASS TO RELIEVE SCHOOL CONGEST'N DIRECTOR TEACHES CLASS TO RELIEVE SCHOOL CONGEST'N Night School Enrollment Reaches High Mark Of 3,718 The enrollment in the eight local night schools reached a high total of 3,718, according to figures released yesterday by Clarence O. Lewis, director of evening and summer schools. The highest registration is still recorded at the Shaw Night High School, where 1,300 are enrolled, while the second highest registration is at the Garnet-Patterson Junior High Night School. The enrollment at the latter school is 1,111. Seven hundred and thirty students are enrolled at the Armstrong Night High School. Registration at the other schools is as follows: Bell, 162; Francis, 153; Lovejoy, 145; Burrville, 91; and Briggs, 26. Congested Condition Relieved The overcrowded condition at the Shaw Night School, where 78 students were enrolled in one classroom which had provision for only 48 pupils, the others being forced to stand, has been relieved. In order to relieve the congested situation Director Lewis voluntarily became a teacher. The class in geometry which was the overcrowded class, was split with the first teacher, Mr. C. Williams, having an enrollment of 40, and Mr. Lewis instructing the remaining 38. The heavy enrollment in the geometry classes is due to the fact that many students are pursuing the subject preparatory to college entrance. Adultery Charge Dismissed When Wife Refuses to Talk A charge of adultery was dismissed against Earl Leak, 25, of the 1100 block of Montello avenue, northeast, in jury branch of Police Court Wednesday morning when his wife refused to testify against him.

Mattingly instructed her that under the laws of the District she was competent but not compelable to testify. Attorney Thomas Beckett who represented Leak had requested the judge to instruct the woman in this direction. A divorce action against Leak is expected to grow out of the charges. Shiloh Christian Endeavor Debates Liquor Question The Shiloh Baptist Church C. E. Society rendered a very interesting program with George L. Parks leading the discussion and Miss E. L. Gordon leading the song service. The topic, "What Effect Has the Liquor Problem Upon the Young People of Today?" was discussed. A debate on the subject, "Prohibition Has Outlived its Usefulness" was held with Miss Marjorie Hollowman taking the affirmative side and Raymond Jones, the negative.

Testifying in court Wednesday, Lewis positively identified Jackson as the man who pulled his coat away from him. Lewis claimed he first met the men in a house described as "a whiskey house," at, 1209 Van's court, where he had gone to buy a drink. Leaving the house Lewis complained to Policemen R. Nichols and A.

INCONSISTENT The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People with headquarters in New York City is very inconsistent in its contention for Negro employment. The principle for which the association makes its contention for work is laudable and should be given due consideration by the state and federal governments as well as the municipalities. Negroes should not be discriminated against in employment. They should not be "the last hired and first fired." "Equal opportunity" should be the fundamental American principle. The N.A.A.C.P. is inconsistent in its contention for Negro employment as long as it has all of its printing, including The Crisis, printed in white shops. There are any number of Negroes running print shops who can do the work the N.A.A.C.P. has to pay for to have done. The Crisis, a monthly magazine could be printed in any number of Negro shops from New York to Chicago. The National Medical Journal is an example. It is the organ of the National Medical Association. The editor and his office is hundreds of miles away from the Negro plant in which it has been printed for the past ten years. The Crisis can be printed in a Negro print shop. Say they pay $1,000 an issue to print, in twelve months there is a $12,000 job for a Negro printer. As long as The Crisis is printed in a white shop, the N.A.A.C.P. is not consistent in its contention for Negro employment. Then there is their regular printing. Take the printing for their annual meeting. About $3,000 was spent last May for the printing matter sent here for the annual meeting. All of this was printed in a white shop and shipped to Washington with a half dozen Negroes running good shops in Washington, who could have printed the various jobs they had at a less figure than they paid plus the shipping bill. The N.A.A.C.P. is also inconsistent in its principle of "taxation without representation." The association is constantly seeking memberships and donations. Just recently it sent out a letter asking for $2,500. But the association will not permit the members and donors to have a voice in its legislative affairs, nor its annual elections. Negroes are getting tired of paying out money and having no say about who shall spend this money or where it is spent. The association will take a big step forward and find many members and donors phen it realizes its inconsistences and conforms to fundamental principles of representation. "LIBERTY, JUSTICE AND EQUAL OPPORTUNITY" "The right of liberty, justice and equal opportunity is yours. The President of the United States is ever obligated to the maintenance of these sacred trusts to the full extent of his authority." Thus spake President Hoover to his Negro henchmen who swallowed it, hook, line and sinker. These are very fine words and sound very good but they are meaningless words when uttered by President Hoover. Herbert Hoover has been President of these United States for three years and six months. There are more than 13,000,000 Negro American citizens under his jurisdiction. President Hoover has the first time to raise his hand or his voice in "the maintenance of the sacred rights" of the American Negro (citizens—if you please). He has not been just, nor has he given or even granted the Negro an equal opportunity in his administration nor in the various governmental departments under his authority. More than 100 Negroes have been lynched and several of them burned, four of them within an hundred miles of the White House, since Mr. Hoover has been President. When did he exert "his authority" to protect "the sacred trust" of life and liberty and justice? Not in a single, instance has he raised his voice against lynching nor even suggested a remedy for it. Was he sincere when he spoke those words? There is not a Negro in these United States who believes President Hoover was sincere in his address to the Negroes, with whom he condescended to stand for a picture. For the past thirty years, Negroes have been disfranchised all over the South. They are counted for representation and denied a voice to be represented. Mr. Hoover certainly is aware of that fact. He has condoned and promoted it. Does he call that "liberty, justice and equal opportunity" and why has he not demonstrated "his authority" in "these sacred trusts?" What is more sacred to an American citizen than his suffrage? President Hoover and the Republican party have acquiesced in the wholesale disfranchisement of Negro suffrage and are therefore as guilty of it as the perpetrators. "Liberty, justice and equal opportunity." Those words coming from President Hoover in the light of his past performances are enough to make you laugh. President Hoover must think all the Negroes of this country are as gullible as Roscoe Simmons. Well, Mr. President, they are not, and thousands of them who can exercise their suffrage will speak out on November the 8th against your failure to discharge your duty in exercising your authority for "liberty, justice and equal opportunity." We have not forgotten the injustice of the Hoover administration toward our Gold Star Mothers who were jim crowed in cattle ships on their trip to France. That is a sample of President Hoover's "justice and equal opportunity." And the Republicans expect us to swallow all of these injustices and humiliations and go like sheep to the polls and vote the Republican ticket. The party of Lincoln minus his spirit and principles is only a shell of Lincoln's ideals. It is a name only. President Hoover expects us to forget his nomination of Judge Parker for the Supreme Court and the endorsement of Montgomery of Mississippi for United States Marshal over the protests of Mrs. Booze and hundreds of Negro women, after Montgomery had declared there is not a virtuous Negro woman in this country. President Hoover has been asked many times to issue an executive order eliminating the photograph from civil service applications. He has not responded. He has been asked to eliminate discrimination in the various governmental departments in Washington, giving the Negro the "equal opportunity" which he declared is their "right." He has turned a deaf ear to this appeal. In the face of all of this he tells the Negro delegation that "liberty, justice and equal opportunity is yours." And that he is "obligated to the maintenance of these sacred trusts." What did President Hoover really mean?

EDITORIAL FEATURES KELLY MILLER SAYS: KELLY MILLER SAYS: "PLAYING POLITICS" Politics is a game and politicians are the players. The personae dramatics are entirely different in character and quality from the roles which they engage to play. I was never more impressed with this thought than while witnessing the performance of the Negro auxiliary Republican Committee at their recent meeting in Washington and its reception by the President at the White House. The delegates were made up of individuals who for the most part were of good qualities and high character in their personal capacities. But when they accepted to play their assigned parts in the political force, they hid these fine qualities behind a masque. I have said that no Negro can affect to be a genuine, spontaneous, honest-to-God Democrat or Republican without democrat or Intellect or conscience. The Hoover players last Saturday must have accepted their assigned roles at heavy cost to both intellect and conscience. The key note of the meeting was sounded in these words—"though you party in your defense of the President to pose with a Negro group and the willingness of the "leaders" to accept this belatedness carries its own comment. All campaint was muffled, all militancy suppressed. The whole proceedings were conducted in the under tone and minor key. As Mr. Hoover and his official staff looked on, I wondered what they really thought of the boasted Negro manhood. Men and women who to my knowledge had condemned and denounced the President for his manifold sins of commission and omission now engage to sell him to the colored people and consent to becomeenchmen and sycophants that favor may follow fawning. If after fifty years of freedom and opportunity this is the dominant type of leadership, I can only say—God help the Negro race. The shades of Douglass, Langston, Cuney and George White will rise up and condemn the moral degeneracy of this generation. Ancient Arguments So far as any suggestive thought in concerned, the conference might as well been held in 1882. The intervening fifty years has gained nothing in thought but has lost amazingly in courage. Gratitude to the Republicans of the stamp of Lincoln and Sumner and denunciation of Negro hating Democrats of the tragic era constituted the dominant note. They made no appeal to the Negro voter under fifty years of age. The conference was a veritable Golgotha—a place DIGESTING THE NEWS By CLIFFORD C. MITCHELL NEGRO NEWSPAPERS Some time ago I received a detailed letter from the Progress News Service, of Newark, New Jersey, disclosing the extent of their activities in behalf of Negro Newspapers in their particular community. Their working slogan is: "A Negro Newspaper is every home in America." I am not statistically informed on the progress they have made in New Jersey, but even without such information the idea merits the serious thought and action of all of our readers. The uniqueness of their slogan is that they include "every home" and not necessarily every Negro home—and why not? What better way is there for the white race to become expertly acquainted with Negroes than to regularly read of our activities through our own publications? Personally, I have gained many devoted friends among the white race simply by sending pertinent individuals complimentary subscriptions, at my own expense, to a number of our race publications. Many of these correspondent friends had never before read a Negro publication. Others had read one or two nationally known race papers. All of such readers, however, indicated an amazement at the progress and the obstacles that the Negro is making and overcoming. And my mail, quite frequently, brings requests from these readers to give them detailed information concerning some individual or organization that they have read of in our papers and which, before, they had not known of their existence. If I, in my peculiar circumstances, can materially benefit by such a simple expedient of having influential members of the white race read of our activities, how much more can the race in general benefit by making the custom nationwide? And from a commercial standpoint the slogan, "A Negro News-paper in every home in America," should be adopted by every race publication. Our circulation managers should not rest content by merely placing their particular paper in each race home but they By Kelly Miller THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1932 of skulls. The nearest approach to present day issues was hinted in the opposition to the Democrats because Roosevelt wrote the Haytian constitution and Garner voted against the Dyer anti-lynching bill. Intellectual honesty would have required the completion of the picture to the effect that the Republicans were perfectly willing to operate for twelve years under the Roosevelt constitution and that the Dyer bill was not defeated by Garner's adverse vote but was strangled to death by the Senate committee which was overwhelmingly Republican. Present Issues Ignored Not a word was said about such living issues as farm relief, bonus, unemployment, taxation or any other constructive political issue. There are undoubtedly many strong and convincing reasons why American citizens, white and black, might be urged to vote for President Hoover, but this Negro auxiliary committee seemed to be wholly unconscious of them. The only constructive suggestion to the conference was presented by the Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, the white understudy of Secretary Mills. If the race is to continue to be led by this type of leadership it will repeat its emotional praise of Republicans and condemnation of Democrats in '44, '48, '52, and on so till the day of political doom. It was reserved to the women to save the race from utter humiliation and chagrin. No woman entered into any undue adulation of the President who candor compels us to say, has been a sad disappointment to the Negro race. By far most manly speech was made by Mrs. Wilda Townsend, of New Jersey, when she addressed the President face to face and eye to eye in such terms of uncompromising demand as might have become a Douglass or a Langston. Mrs. Grace Evans, of Indiana, came near breaking up the meeting by frankly telling the delegates that they were either deceiving themselves or trying to deceive the race. I was reminded of that ancient general who on noting some daring feminine feat exclaimed—"My women have become men and my men have become women." I do not think that this bunch will have much effect upon the mass sentiment of the race in attempting to sell them a candidate in whom they themselves do not believe. If you want me to believe you must first believe yourself. As was perhaps proper, the whole proceedings were under the pay and sponsorship of the National Republican Committee. The delegates literally ate sugar out of the hand of Benjamin, the Israelite whom Perry Howard said was the best friend of the Negro race in the Republican Party. I wondered if he had in mind that President Hoover is a Republican. should extend their circulation activities to cover "every home." The appeal to white readers is a "natural" one. Every informed person wants to be, or should be, thoroughly informed on the thought and action of their community neighbors. There is no better way to achieve this than by reading the Negro publications. In fact, it would not be surprising to find that the results, of such an appeal, among the white readers would not actually exceed that among our own race subscribers. Remember the slogan: "A Negro Newspaper in every home in America." BOOK REVIEWS "BAHA'ULLAH AND THE NEW, ERA" (The Bkha'i Publishingst Committee, Box 348, Grand Central Station—New York City.) Out in the city of Portland, Oregon, one Myrtle W. Campbell lives. She has been an admirer of my writings since Mrs. Cannady-Franklin opened the columns of her Portland Advocate to me in March 1930. In all of Mrs. Campbell's letters to me she told of the wonders of Baha'u'Lilah, who, in 1892 died in prison, just a few months before I was born. These letters, plus newspaper accounts gleaned from all over the country, particularly concerning the national Temple at Wilmette, Illinois, created within me the longing to study temets of Baha'ism. This volume, "Baha'uLlah and the New Era," is the first that I have read or studied on the subject. it is sufficient to convince me, one who is both handicapped by a dark skin and a prison sentence, that the teachings of Baha'uLlah, especially as lived and prescribed by his present day followers, are uniquely pertinent and capable of transforming this world of human bitterness and differences into one human international family. The subject is entirely too exhaustive for me to attempt an analysis in this space. My present mission is merely to attract the at- By J. E. Esslemont ```markdown ``` OTHER PAPERS SAY OTHER PAPERS SAY WHY GO TO COLLEGE? N. Y. Dunbar News At a gas station in Baltimore, Maryland the other day an observant man of color stopped to have the tank of his little motor car filled. The young white man who did the filling, had a voice, an air, a courtesy which occasioned the colored man to ask questions. "College man?" "I'll say," was the answer. "None but a college man can get a job at this filling station." "Does the boss find it hard to get such men?" "Hard? Not a bit of it. He has a great big waiting list." And yet, when we see a Negro college graduate running an elevator, working as a waiter in a club, engaged in some "menial" job, we are shocked and ask ourselves, Why go to college? Perhaps, this is because college-bred Negroes are so grievously few in number (about 18,000) that we hope for the impossible—that is to say, to see every one of them start at the top forgetting that such is not the way of this wise old world. If a college education is of practical value, it abbreviates the period of time between starting at the bottom and working one's way to the top. For, other things being equal, your educated man has greater capacity for growth; he grows faster and he keeps on growing longer. In the present state of public opinion, it is, of course, true that the upward path of the white college boy at the filling station or elsewhere is not blocked by a color bar, as would be the case if he were recognizably an American of African decent. On the other hand, the development of Negro business enterprise—a very slow and very painful development—means more and more jobs for qualified Negroes. And, as white business enterprises learn to cultivate the Negro market, they find it more and more to their advantage to employ Negroes in jobs above the level of menial service. Then too, our people need more and better educated and trained Negroes in the professions. Moreover, public opinion in all parts of our beloved America is unquestionably becoming more enlightened and liberal every year, so that the color bar in employment tends to fall before sheer character and efficiency, as it will fall altogether at last. We see, therefore no reason in the world for discouraging our boys and girls—if they show talent and application—from getting all the training their parents and they themselves can pay for, so it be appropriate to the interests, aptitudes, and reasonable prospects of these young people. In Booker Washington's time our intellectuals were far from being at one with him in the view that economic efficiency is the fundamental. Today, we all realize the importance of modern intellectual education for those who have intellects, and the additional importance of the social studies and, fundamentally, economics. Our insurance companies were started at a time when there was not one Negro actuary in the country, with resultant calamities! But, now we are endeavoring to stimulate promising young men and women of color to prepare intelligently for business responsibilities. May they never forget that a sound and thorough intellectual training must precede specialization. As Doctor Thomas Jesse Jones points out (Trends in Negro Education: 1915-1930), for every 10,000 of the Negro population there are only 17 college students; for 10,000 of the whites. 92. that knows no color line, racial or national prejudices; caters not to class, wealth or position but is founded and administered wholly on the principle of one human brotherhood. In the Baha'i calendar the twelfth month, that of Knowledge, commences October 16th, and is an excellent time for our readers to acquire knowledge on the subject.

OUR MAILBAG REPLIES TO DERRICOTTE'S ARTICLE RELATIVE TO "31 PRESIDENTS" Editor, Tribune: I noticed in your paper of recent issue a most interesting article by Attorney Derricotte whom I have the pleasure of counting as one of my personal friends, he and I having lived at the home of Dr. Cabaniss, 1745 K street, for a long time. It was a most painstaking effort, and for which he deserves high commendation. What I am about to say in regard to it is not in a spirit of criticism, neither would I have it understood that I am attempting to discredit it, or detract from it in any way. However, the great detail and accuracy of his lengthy compulsion is what caused me to think that I had discovered a slight discrepancy in his figures. He stated that we have had 31 presidents. The fact is we have had 32. Again he states that the shortest term of office by any president was one month, and again he is in error. H_e also states that the longest period served by a president was 8 years by Mr. Wilson, another slight variation from the facts. Now, the explanation for all of this is simply this, William J. Bryan whose greatest ambition in life was to be elected president, and who was defeated every time, actually became the president of the U. S. legally, with all the powers that any other president possessed. Taking you dow. memory's lane for a brief stroll we find that in Mr. Wilson's cabinet Mr. Bryan was secretary of State, and Mr. Marshall was vice-president. Mr. Wilson who with Mr. Bryan was engaged in a serious controversy with Japan at the time. It was so serious he decided that he would go away to some quiet place where he could give the trouble his most profound consideration, without being disturbed. He selected a small island in the Mississippi River. I think it was called Pass Christian. Mr. Marshall whose health had been failing him had gone to Canada, British Columbia. I think the vessel on which Mr. Wilson sailed somewhere down the coast encountered a terrific storm and his ship was blown out of its course and outside of the threemile limit onto the high seas. He was therefore temporarily, the inadvertently, outside of the jurisdiction of the United States. The Constitution says if the President is unable to perform his duties, that the powers of the president devolve upon the vice-president, but Mr. Marshall was out of the U.S. at the same time so he could not function. Now, just at this time some important bills had to be signed. It has been so long that my memory having grown a little indistinct on that point I fail to remember just what they were. However, the president and vice-president both being out of the United States at the same time, Mr. Bryan automatically became the President of the United States. His tenure of office was the brief period Mr. Wilson was outside of the 3 mile limit.—Four hours, I think the papers stated at the time. His term of office was therefore the shortest. Mr. Wilson's was not eight years, but eight years less four hours. Francis Duval Crichton, 1812 13th St. N.W.

The Tribune: Editor, The Trader. The sun was slowly sinking in the west, there were a few more hours of life in him for that day; nevertheless, there were quite a few, who like myself, were in a hurried pace to see the last stages of the show that was taking place. It was Drill Day—the day of the military contest between the two outstanding high schools of our great capital. Finally I found a seat and after making myself as comfortable as possible I began to take notice of the surroundings. It was a gala day and all those who had any interest in the activities of either school had deserted their homes to witness this grand spectacle. The stands were crowded. The presence of the officers and cadets who were scattered here and there on the field and in the stands gave the whole gathering a military air that was felt even above the restlessness of the crowd. On the field below, the show was taking place. One of the companies was going through the routine maneuvers as its part in the program..... What, a beautiful scene! The cadets all attired in snappy blue uniforms with the silver buttons and ensigns reflecting the magnificence of their bearers. They were in regular formation with the officers in their usual places. Between the two columns and giving orders to the right and left of him was the captain.... He was a treat for sore eyes! To see him, so young, with a military personality, with such commanding gestures, guiding his men through all the of: practiced movements so as to bring about the best showing of their read military ability. If BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL was really grand! The first part of this company's episode was over and they now arranged themselves for the second part which was a battle formation. The fireworks started and you could see them advancing upon the madeup fort that protected the supposed to be enemy. Slowly, in groups of three they advanced. Behind them, directing every move and giving orders to his lieutenants who relayed them to the whole company was the captain. He made a picture all by himself.... Now the line of attack was passing the stand in front of where I was seated and for the first time I got a real good view of the captain who was so ably commanding his company. There was a familiar air about the captain that from the very first look had arrested my attention; to convince myself I took another good look at him, trying at the same time to place him in my memory. Then all of a sudden I remembered! Sure! I knew exactly who he was but I couldn't overcome my surprise in recognizing him as a boy right from my own home-town. Why, I could hardly believe my eyes! How proud I felt to know that one of our boys was making such a fine showing.....in my estimation excelling that of any other I had seen up until that time. It was one of those thrills that take one's breath away. Now that I am in the seclusion of my writing den recalling the events of that day mingled with the memories of home that they afforded me, they all come back very clearly. I still smile when the picture of that captain comes before me; his youth, his ability, his spirit, and his closeness inspire me and as I visualize him in the future years winning laurels in life as he did that day on the field, I realize the truth in what I once heard a speaker say: "Glory to you, means glory to your own. Try hard to succeed for they are depending on you and you can't fail them." THE GREATER HOWARD CLUB Editor, Tribune: For over two years now—in fact, almost ever since the inception of the present administration, Howard University has been the target of a series of scurrilous and dastardly attacks. Availing himself of confidential information which damn him as traitor or confederate of traitors, secure as he hopes in his anonymity, the self-styled special correspondent has missed no slightest opportunity of directing sly innuendos or open and semilibellous charges against a gentleman, too high of calibre, too noble of nature to defend himself. Were the full extent of his possible damage confined to attempts to asperse the character, intellect and ability of Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, the alumni and friends of Howard University would rest content, willing—even happy, to allow him to amuse himself with a task foredoomed to frustration. Unfortunately this flood of vituperative misinformation, so willingly released by the Afro-American does not stop there but pours into the homes of present and potential students, of still other persons interested but ignorant of or without access to the true facts prejudicing them against the university, its works and its ideals, blinding them to the very real progress it is making. The Special Correspondent professes himself motivated by so over-whelming a love for the university that the alleged mal-administration of Dr. Johnson sends him into transports of rage impelling him to break forth with furiously inchoate charges in the course of which he represents the president of the university as a condoner of misdemeanors and the faculty as the worse collection of scoundrels that ever disgraced the traditionally sacred walls of a college. It is of course, patent that the avowed motive of the special correspondent is an inadequate attempt to conceal his true purpose—no man could pursue a course so obviously inimical to the best interests of the school and race, were he not animated by unreasoning jealousy, mad resentment and insensate covetousness of the position of the man he unceasingly attacks. Unchecked, these vicious attacks have grown bolder and more numerous, the buzzing of a cloud of gnats has become the hissing of a nest of serpents—a standing challenge to some modern St. Patrick—a St. Patrick which seems to have appeared in the Greater Howard Club—a newly formed organization of alumni who have been so nauseated by the never ending stream of calumny that they have banded themselves together to champion the cause of their Alma Mater. While it is true that the constant onslaught of the Special Correspondent has aroused the members of the Greater Howard Club, the aim of this organization is not merely to repudiate the scandalous aspersions of this gentleman, in fact, in as far as is humanly possible, we intend to ignore these canards. We are not blind 'partisans of the President, our allegiance is first to Howard, our intention to contract the flood of misrepresentation by directing WHY STRUGGLE TO GET AN EDUCATION By RICHIE C. KELLER RICHMOND, Va.—"Why struggle to get an education when mechanical devices minimize the necessity for education?" asked Dr. Robert P. Daniel, head of the department of education of Virginia Union University, in an inspirational address which marked the formal opening of Virginia Union University, Friday, at Coburn chapel. This abrupt query directed at a student body whose dwindled numbers suggested the struggle of students for an education in the face of the nationwide economic crisis, started sedate seniors (garbed for the occasion in cap and gown) aspiring seniors, sophomores and freshmen into alert attention as Dr. Daniel began his dissertation upon the subject: "The Challenge of the Machine Age to the Educated Man." Dr. Daniel pictured vividly the manner in which machines are satisfying the needs of mankind: The patented forms of telegraph greetings; the automatic salesmen machines; "classroom talkies"; televoxes and Robots operating the unrolling film of knowledge, are tending, he said in agreement with an editorial in the University of Minnesota Daily, "to make a man a monkey and of monkey a machine." The phenomenal development of our machine age is a challenge to the educated man in that the intellect must keep pace with material progress lest the created make the creator subservient. "This," he continued, "can only be done by education." The age further challenges the student, he said, in that the possibilities for employment are fewer. This condition should not discourage students nor discredit education for machines are the creation of intellect and the entire weiter of our material advancement—and education offers the opportunity for even greater progress." "Students have formed the wrong conception of education," Dr. Daniel stated, quoting Dr. Horne to the effect that: Education is not a gift bestowed; it is a trophy won. It is not the transmission of mental power from teacher to pupil; it is making latent mental power in the pupil kinetic. The teacher is not the pupil's pony but his experienced travelling companion. "The student in college today is there to invest his intellectual capital—the returns should be increased knowledge and a fuller development of native powers," Dr. Daniel concluded. The strains of the recreational fall softly over the silent chapel and seniors with thoughtful brows marched behind the faculty with a determination to meet the challenge of the times as set forth in what is said to be one of the most impressive of Virginia Union University's formal opening addresses. HOME In the quiet of the evening my mind often stray, Back to the old homestead many miles away. Down among the pines, oaks and hictorys too. Stands a little frame house once white and blue. Surrounded by flowers of many a bright hue. Thought ever so humble it seems to be It's home sweet home to me. After many years it's a great pleasure to me.

YOUTH'S CORNER By ALVIN "CHICK" WEBB Hello, Gang. I am back again. So you missed me, did you? I am glad that somebody reads this column every week. Since the last occasion that you read me, numerous things have taken place that I must tell you about. The fall of the year always brings with its resplendent beauties of nature a rejuvenation of thoughts and ideas to us humans that are in perfect blend and harmony with this most beautiful season of the year. To those young people who have lost faith and hope in life—who have stumbled against the inevitable hazards of this solemn world—who have encountered the stern indifferences of the selfish horde—to you I say, take a look at nature at this time of the year, and as the good old earth has become meilowed from the rays of a summer sun and has garbed herself in the becoming colors of the season, so should you, one and all (mellowed from the bitter experiences of a life-time) array yourselves with fresher hopes and stronger purposes. Organizations The Rialto Boys' Club, of whom I wrote about a few weeks ago, tell me that they are making grand preparations to enter the proposed Tribune Basketball League this winter. Incidentally, two seasons ago this aggregation boasted the cream of basketers in the southwestern section of the city. Such embryo stars as Tommy Jackson, the Henry brothers, the Barnes brothers, Grimes, Emmet Guy and even the writer to mention a few. They are entered in the junior division, and stand a favorable chance of coping the bacon. The Saturday Night Assembly is still drawing the younger set by the hundreds to its palatial doors each Saturday evening. There are any number of young people whom I have met that have expressed the desire to attend what they call a "nice" dance. They detest a rough, disorderly and disrespectful crowd. Calvin Pendleton The gentleman whose name you see above hardly needs an introduction to you Washingtonians. He's such a popular ole soul. Nevertheless he is a few notable facts about him. Pendleton is another personification of a Mighty Mite. In other words, he is diminutive, small or short. The girls say that he is short but sweet. They ought to know. Among his many accomplishments, I might state that he has been the 70-year District Playground Track champion for two consecutive years. Another personality, Montague Pollard, of whom I wrote about a few weeks back, shares a like distinction. As a matter of fact they were red hot rivals until Pollard retired from active competition two years ago. We both share the joint ambition of organizing a representative track club here in Washington for the specialization and development of colored athletes in that branch of sport. Calvin is also an excellent performer of the terpsichorean art in other words, he trips gracefully across a ballroom floor. With such a high sounding English name, the Pendleton ought to make his mark in life. Wonder If It's True That: Bill "Bojangles" Robinson, erstwhile king of tappers, cleaned up sixteen thousand simoleons on the world series...The Young Scholastics, a prospective entrant in that Tribune league is looking for a commercial backer...Many Hilltop students were turned away from Shaw Night School, when Journalism was not included in the course of studies...Montague Pollard of "Monkey and Skippy" of WOL fame will soon get a call for big time...The "powers that be" in Harlem are waging a campaign to spread the doctrine of birth control...Said Harlem Negroes are not supporting the Scottsboro Fund Honor.Roll as strongly a they should.

An analysis of more than 300 of these accounts as presented by Benjamin R. Andrews in th. Sep- tember Woman’s Press shows that the majority were kent by women in some type of clerical work though a few were from those en- aged in professional service, Farinas ranged from less than 10 8 besa to more than $45 a week with a median of $23, half receiving more and half less than that amount, ‘The average expenditures of a representative subgroup who aver- aged $23.12 per week as available for spending, and who all lived at home in ‘ition of oat 250,000 pop- ulation, ranged as follows: $10.50 ot 45.5 per cent of the total amount for operating — éxpenses—board, lunches, car fare, and emergencies; $4.07 or 17.6 per cent for clothes eluding tepait, cleaning and laundry; and $4.19 or 18.1 per cent for advancement And personal care, Making The Eyes Bright aM sii By Nina ‘Temple | No woman can be attractive if hier eyes dre deed and dull, There it a very’ homely and. simple remedy that war tuned many year ‘ago by our. grandmothers to bring brilliance to the eves—it was this: simply eat a lump of sugar that had been wet with cologne.

Further payment of premiums may be made however, at any time the policyholder consents to the modification of his insurance, subject to approval by the company. The premiums paid since September 9, 1931, and up to October 31, 1832, by policyholders who have neglected to modify their insurance will be applied as legal reserve to support paid-up insurance after deducting proper expenses. Such paid-up insurance will be payable at the same time the original policy would have matured if continued in force. Beneficiaries Permitted to modify The court has further provided that where death has occurred since September 9, 1931, or may occur before October 31, 1932, on cases not modified, the beneficiaries may consent to the modification and receive the death benefits thereunder, provided the policyholder did not refuse to modify his insurance while he was alive. Premiums in such instances must have been paid since September 9, 1931, and up to the time of death. This privilege will be granted to beneficiaries in all States where the company is permitted to modify insurance in accordance with the Order of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, and to collect premiums except in Virginia. To Return Premiums Less Express Where a policyholder has refused to modify and death occurs prior to October 31, 1982, the Court has ordered payment of the proportionate share in the assets of the company as of September 9, 1931, to be determined by the Court, and to return to the beneficial premiums paid by such policyholders since September 9, 1931, and up to the time of death, less a reasonable per cent for collection and overhead expenses. Original Order Amended By authorization issued the same day, the Court amended the modification plan and authorized the receivers to revive, modify and keep in force, with the assent of the policyholders in each case, any insurance which lapsed before September 9, 1931, and was not in force on that date. Suitable orders, conforming to these will be sought in all States in which the company is operating under Ancillary Receiverships. This modification means that a policyholder dying since September 9, 1931, the beneficiary will receive their share of the assets of the company for that time. In other words, a $1,000 policy may be worth anywhere from $400 to $700, which would be paid in settlement for the $ thousand-dollar dren.

Ford, who says he is a preacher and lives in the 100 block of Schoot's court, northeast, pleaded guilty to a charge of stealing 13 chickens from a neighbor's roost before Police Court Judge John P. McMahon. Mrs. Mary Starks, who is a neighbor of the Rev. Ford, said the fowls were taken from her back yard, and police said they found ten of them in the preacher's home. Judge McMahon sentenced Ford to 120 days in jail. "I am a preacher." Ford said, "and we were planning to have a feast, so I took the chickens for that." TREAS. EMPLOYE RETIRES AFTER 30 YEARS SERVICE TREAS. EMPLOYE RETIRES AFTER 30 YEARS SERVICE George W. Allen, of 720 Sixth street, northeast, a faithful and energetic employee of the Treasury Department and formerly of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, retired last week after 30 years of service. Upon his retirement, Mr. Allen was presented with a valuable token by his fellow workers who held him in high esteem. Born in Nashville, Tenn., in 1865, Mr. Allen spent his boyhood in this city and later, joined the U. S. Army. He was a member of the Ninth Calvary and served two enlistments during which time he saw active service. He was honorably discharged from the Army in 1899, and removed to Soldiers' Home Hospital for medical treatment. He was appointed to the Bureau in 1902 and in 1910 he was transferred to the Treasury garage as driver for the Secretary of the Treasury and other Government officials. He later was sent to the Treasury Building, where he has been employed for 19 years as vault attendant, handling more money than any man of his race. $25.00 A WEEK TOP SALARY FOR RUM-RUNNERS (CNS)—Members of the "fifth estate," the rum runners, are feeling the effects of the depression along with legitimate business, it was revealed here last week, in the District of Columbia Police Court. For years the rum runners have driven around the streets of the Capital in their high-priced, cars owned beautiful homes and flaunted luxuries in the face of the legitimate wage earner. Now a different story is told. Two men were arrested last week for liquor law violations. Frank Marion Ledrux, white, was charged with transportation, and James Tyler, colored, was charged with possession. The former revealed that he was working for another man who paid him $25 a week, while the latter revealed that he was working for another person, for no specific amount, but as he described it, for some "change." They claimed that "bosses" had felt the depression so much that they could not pay better wages. Men who formerly hauled liquor at very little risk over the Washington-Baltimore boulevard for ten dollars a night are now making the same trip with more hazard for mere pittances. The day when the rum runner was the "Kingpin" of the rackets has passed. The "numbers brokers" have taken their places, but they too are beginning to how to the depression, evidenced by the disappearance of several of the magnificent cars which formerly parked along U street. The wisecrases on the "block" are betting that those that now remain will eventually disappear.

RETIRED WORKER GIVEN MONEY TO PAY FOR PENSION Fund Raised By Citizens Enable Dyson To Get $66 Month Public-spirited citizens came to the rescue of John W. Dyson, retired Government laborer, who faced destitution after 24 years in the Government. Dyson, who lives at 621 C street, southeast, was forced to retire from his job under the Economy Act. He failed to receive his pension because he could not purchase ten years of his service under the Retirement Act. Dyson's predicament as explained by H. L. McCoy, 'director of insurance of the Veterans' Administration, is due to the fact that for ten years he was not considered in retirement status and his failure to pay the amount in question for ten years at interest. He was employed in the Water Department of the District Government. Discussing the case, Mr. McCoy said it was typical of a group of cases arising out of the District of Columbia government. It was at first held, Mr. McCoy explained, that Dyson and others in his per diem status were not in the classified service and not subject to the benefits of the retirement act. It was not until January 1, 1931, he explained, that by a change of policy this class of man was brought under retirement, and at that time deductions started on account of the retirement fund. Due Ten Years They were notified that if they desired to pay up their back deductions for the past ten years on the installment plan, by having part of it taken out each pay day, they could catch up on such payments. Dyson did not do this and consequently, it was explained, he and several others have paid in a sum to the retirement fund since January 1, 1031, but have no pension coming to them. If they pay the difference, or "purchase" their missing years of service, it was explained, they can be officially placed on the retirement list and begin drawing a pension. Under the interpretation of the retirement law, however, it was explained, it would not be possible to put Dyson on a pension and take out the $475.42 on installment out of his pension. Dyson was penniless, so Government workers on learning of his predicament contributed to a fund and the money was deposited in the Industrial Savings Bank. On Saturday, the committee met at the bank and had a check drawn for $475.42, and made payable to the United States Treasurer for Dyson's back debt. Mrs. Carrie Long, chairman; Mrs. Julia West Hamilton, vice-chairman; Miss Elizabeth G. Cole, secretary; and Mrs. Georgia B. Henry, treasurer, will present this check to the U. S. Treasurer, thereby enabling Dyson to receive $66 per month. Convicted by Judge John P. McMahon in police court Tuesday on charges of carrying a concealed weapon and assault. Charles S. Wells, 35, was sentenced to serve 285 days in jail. Wells was accused by Catherine Rath of having struck her over the head with a pistol Monday during an affray at her home in Freedmen's court, northwest. VA.

THIEF BREAKS IN H. U. GRIDMEN'S LOCKERS IN GYM Varsity Player Reports Loss Of Suit, Shoes And $20 Check Thomas Walker, Howard University football player, who gave his address as 1001 Vermont avenue, northwest, reported to Second Precinct police late Wednesday evening the theft of a suit valued at $30 from his locker in the university gymnasium. The loss was discovered after Walker and other members of the gridiron team returned from the evening's practice in the stadium. Walker told police, his locker was broken open and besides the suit, a pair of tan shoes, and a pocketbook containing his driving permit and a check for $20 were stolen. The theft of Walker's suit is said to be the climax of a series of robberies which have befallen the members of the football squad this year. Since the team began practice several weeks ago, members of the squad have repeatedly complained of the theft of petty articles, including sweaters and shoes and money. Team Threatens to Strike Unauthenticated reports early this week revealed that the members of the team had threatened to go on a strike if the suit was not found, and the stealing discontinued. Walker was varsity center on Howard's 1930 team and has returned this year to try for a berth on the eleven. SEEKS TO PLACE NEGROES AS ASST. COMMISSIONERS Congressional Action To Be Sought To Carry Out Plan The Rev. H. R. Randolph, of the A.M.E. Zion Church, Philadelphia and Batilmore Conference is watching with keen interest the annual report of Corporation Counsel William W. Bride submitted to the District Commissioners last Wednesday which recommends the establishment of two new positions of assistant District Commissioners who would take the place of their respective heads in case of illness or absence from the city and otherwise relieve the commissioners of routine duties. In a statement to the Tribune, the Rev. Randolph said: "It will take legislation by Congress to put Mr. Bride's plan into effect. Under present law, the Engineer Commissioner alone is provided with assistants who function in his absence or inability. If this proposal is submitted to this coming session of Congress by the District Commissioners, I will seek Congressional action in both houses of Congress on having provision, provided that one of such assistant District Commissioner be a colored man in lieu of this proposal becoming a law. "Since one-fourth of the population in the District is colored this should be the procedure in the District of Columbia. We won't have equal opportunity and justice until one out of our group is placed in the seat of the District Government. There are many prominent colored men who are well able and qualified to fill this position. If ever this proposal becomes law, I shall petition the District Commissioners to appoint a colored man as assistant District Commissioner of the District of Columbia. Stabs Man With Ice Pick Inflicting Severe Wounds Charged with assault with a dangerous weapon, Dozier Barkner, of the 800 block of Barkry place, northwest, was held for the grand jury under bond of $500 following a preliminary hearing in Police Court, Monday morning.

Holland, who was visiting Barkner's home, was removed to the hospital, where he remained eleven days for treatment. Barkner claims that he was cut by Holland during the scrap and stabbed him in self-defense. SECOND SECTION NINE ISURANCE Stricken Ill While In Store Telephone Booth SOME GOSSIP THAT— "I ONLY HEARD" By And Rivers That the Lichtman Theatres' Popularity Contest starts next Friday, which is something for all the sweet young things to think about if they're in their right minds. Yez-suhl! Miss Washington of 1932 will get three real first prizes. First she gets togged-down, and then she gets fifty gold dollars to put in her new handbag. Of course we will try to make her break one of those brass nickles to get a quantity of gingerale. Oh, yes, and we can get the ice cubes out of the brand new Leonard Refrigerator, which "Miss Washington" will get also. Now isn't that nice? And fifteen lassies will get awards, including a house radio, diamond ring, car radio, double studio couch, and "dough-re-me." Well, boys, now's the time to latch on. Work for your girl friends and then, of course, you'll have the right to help them enjoy their prizes. And Hartwell Cook's New Casino Orchestra is scheduled to crash the radio soon. If they do, I think they will be the first colored band to make WRC. They are lined up at present with the Manhattan Auto and Radio Company's proposed program. And the band hasn't played its first engagement yet. They must be good! Watch for their opening. And is the Casino "looking good"? Hilltop scandal is still on the hill. It hasn't drifted out into town as yet. I don't know the reason just now—whe'her the town is too hot for the collegiate, or whether the collegiate are too hot for the town. Anyhow, it's a two-sided question, with the odds about even. Anything is liable to break out on the "Hill." With the return of such famous characters as "Fats" Guy, Norman Jarvis, Webb Brown, and "Dizzy" Vance. And down the hill hasn't been so "cool" for the past week. At least there certainly have been some "hot" mamas. One took a peep into her boy friend's head, when she used her pop-gun on him the other night. And another "flame" performed a major surgical operation on her sheik's anatomy, so I hear. The operation was successful, they say. She cut off his "late hours." Now, is that hot enough for you? Charlie and Norma have a one-act drama which they stage evenly. Or should I say, eveningly? G'bye! MISS BURROUGHS ADDRESSES MEET IN CONNECTICUT NEW HAVEN, Conn.—Tribute was paid to President Hoover as the one man eminently fitted for the task of guiding America through its most crucial period since the War of the Rebellion, by Miss Nannie C. Burroughs, Washington educator, in an address Friday night, before a largely white audience at the Town Hall here. Edgar Rickard, friend and personal business manager of Mr. Hoover, presided. Miss Burroughs, the founder and principal of the National Training School for Girls and Women, at Washington, D.C., declared that Mr. Hoover represents the highest ideals and principles for which the nation has stood. She held that the Republican party is entitled to continue in administration at Washington because it is thorough and "all inclusive in its Americanism." The Democratic party, she continued, is unsafe because "it makes no provision for all American people." Miss Burroughs contended that "no party is sound unless every man and woman can vote for the party he chooses." This was her slap at the exclusion of Negroes from party primaries by the Democrats in the South. "We cannot afford to build up a democracy where the government is for some of the people, by some of the people, and of some of the people," she said, paraphrasing Lincoln. The reception given her was an enthusiastie one. Suddenly stricker while telephoning in a booth at the drug store at Fourteenth and U streets. Leng Keee, 32, of the 600 block of M street, northwest, was taken to Freedmen's Hospital early this week for treatment. She was later removed to her home.
