NEGRO ARTISTS CRASH AMERICAN OPERA GATES GIRL LEAPS FROM PREACHER'S CAR IN WILD MIDNIGHT RIDE IN STREET The Most News Cleanest News Latest News Vol. XIII, No. 13 GIRL IN WI NUMBER BET CAUSE OF KILLING Suspect Picked from Lineup Is Held for Action of Grand Jury Defense Attorney Makes Unwary Witnesses Trap Selves Often Confronted with a mass of testimony almost hopelessly conflicting and with a large number of witnesses remaining to testify after one and one-half hours' of probing, Monday, a coroner's jury decided to have the grand jury unravel the baffling circumstances surrounding the fatal shooting of James Dozier, 19, of 802 Four-and-a-Half Street, Southwest. At the same time it ordered that Robert B. Carter, 28, of 817 Four-and-a-Half Street, Southwest, should be held for that body. Carter had been picked from a line-up of five men at the Fourth Precinct by a woman eye-witness of the tragedy. She identified him as the man she saw run from the scene of the shooting after pouring five leaden pellets into Dozier's body. Numbers Wager Blamed Police hold the theory that Dozier was stain because he failed to pay off after holding a numbers game wager, but no testimony as to possible motives was heard at the inquest. Coroner's inquests are not supposed to be humorous affairs, and Dr. A. M. McDonald bends severe glances or a sharp reprimand to flippant witnesses, or spectators. But, the gravity of Monday's proceedings were somewhat dissipated by the one eye-witness, Ella Lucas, of 304 H Street, the near eye-witness, Rubin Chance, 312 H Street, and Matilda Parker, 500 G Street, whose home Carter visited. Saturday, all of the Southwest section. The former two were so helplessly mixed up so frequently in the cross examination by Robert Ford, representing Carter, the suspect, that even the austere acting coroner permitted his eyes to twinkle. Some of the spectators who laughed outright were cautioned that they would be ordered from the hearing. J. Flipper Derricottie, representing the family of the dead youth, often saved the day, after Mr. Ford released the witness, by questioning designed to unravel the funderinger witnesses. Officer R. C. Redding., of the Fourth Precinct, the first on the stand, told of finding Dozier lying flat on his back in an aiseway between 301 and 305 H Street. South-west, at 10:15, Friday night. He pushed the wounded man to Providence Hospital, where he was proclaimed dead at 10:25. The testimony of the government's principal witness, Miss Lucas, may have been humorous in spots, but this by no means lessened its effect upon Carter. With her more than 200-pound bulk placed as comfortable as possible in the witness chair, she related that she was sitting in a swing at her home about 10 p.m. Friday, the night of the shooting: Saw Man Shot "One man ran around the corner from Third Street with another (Continued on page two) Washington Tribune Attorney Noble T.

WRIGHT FILES COMPLAINTS WITH CHAIRMAN KING Civic Leader Continues Appeal for Better Cemetery Conditions Continuing his appeal for better conditions at Woodlawn Cemetery, James C. Wright "Father of the Three-Cent Car Fare," Monday, filed with William 11, King, chairman of the Senate District Committee six complaints from site owners at the cemetery along with additional data respecting the deplorable condition of the said burial ground. The complaints, which emphasize the urgent need for a law enforcement and renovation at the cemetery, are characteristic of many letters received from competent and respected site owners at the ground since Mr. Wright started his fight for the batterment of the deplorable conditions which now exist at the Benning Road cemetery. At a later date, Mr. Wright plans to file further complaints with Chairman King. One of the complaints revealed the fact that she raid $8 to the ground keeper for the purpose of having the site leveled, grass seed sowed, and for the general upkeep of the site. However, when she returned to the rave a year later roaching with the exception of the site leveling had been done and the site was overrun with undergrowth. Cemetery In Disgraceful Miss A. B. Newsom in one of the letters of complaint states that "old tin cans, dead flowers, paper trash, and all sorts of waste material are thrown through the grounds and never removed or burned" while Miss Lydia Montgomery Hillman, another compliant charges that "it is in a most disgraceful condition and should make every one with friends or relatives buried there equally as ashamed." Miss M. Louisie Washington, another of the complainants, who purchased a lot in 1903, states that "the place is unsightly; walks between sites if there by any, are covered with weeds through which it is impossible to walk; and debris thrown remains for long periods unremoved." In concluding his communication, Mr. Wright averts that such "testimony attests that the long-suffering patrons are discouraged in their efforts to co-operate with the management in the unkeep of the cemetery, and confidently court your help for r. of in the trying cause set forth." Churches, civic organizations have joined Mr. Wright in his fight. RICHMOND COUPLE GETS D.C.

Colored Woman in Grand Opera Miss Jarboro (Yarborough Chicago Opera Comp "Aida"; Sings als NEW YORK. (By A. E. White for ANE)—The realization of a life time ambition to sing opera in New York City has come to Catherine Yarborough (stage name is Caterina Jarboro) Saturday evening, with Graham Harris, of the Chicago Opera Company conducting, Miss Yarborough sang the role of Aida in the opera of the same name when that notable work of Guissopp Verdi is offered the music lovers of the metropolis. Pioneering as she is, Miss Yarborough's name will go down in history for this achievement alone. Not only has she broken the ice, so as to speak, but the impression she made on the director has assured her of more work with this astonishing company which is popularize- A Hometown Paper of, by, and for Washingtonians S CAR STREET JUNE KENT HURT WHILE FLEEING MAN Wild Ride Ends as Young Woman Flees from the Rev. W. W. Henry DAPPER EVANGELIST IS CAVEMAN, SHE SAYS New Episode is Second in Which the Brothers Have Figured --- 105-Year-Old Ex-Slave Dies at Rosslyn Home Saturday Although versions of his age differed, John Henry Plummer, venerable ex-slave, was generally credited with being 105 years old when he died at his late residence in Rosslyn, Va. Saturday. While several hundred mourners, the majority of them visibly affected by the death of the centenarian, watched in silence nearly a dozen ministers, eulogized him at the First Baptist Church of Rosslyn, Wednesday. The principal eulogy was given by the Rev. J. D. Catlett, present pastor of the church. Referring to their honored and respected friend as "Brother John Henry," Reverends August Lewis, former pastor of the church; William A. Carter, also an ex-pastor of the church; Jessie Anderson, N. Brown, Edgar Newton, Sylvester Walker, Armstead H. Jones, and J. J. Green each delivered a brief eulogy. Burial was held at the picturesque Odd Fellows Cemetery in Arlington county. The service had been preceded by brief rites at the W. E. Jarvis Funeral Home in Washington. Ex-Coachman for Lincoln Born a slave in Maryland, John Henry received his freedom when comparatively young. He served for years as coachman for Abraham Lincoln and invariably drove the presidential carriage while Lincoln occupied the White House. He was also dean of Washington butlers. After the death of the Emancipator, John Henry became a butler in the household of Mrs. William Laird Dunlop, Sr., where he worked for nearly a half century. He remained in the same house as a servant of the late Robert T. Lincoln, son of Abraham Lincoln, and had continued in the Lincoln service since the death of his employer several years ago.

From New York, it is reported that the company goes to Boston, and from there to Chicago. Wherever they play, Miss Yarborough's magnificent voice will be heard in the title role of Aida and in "L'Africane." Interesting indeed is the story of Miss Yarborough's achievement. Knowing that the company was producing the Verdi opera, the singer entered the spaces hippodrome and demanded to see the director, Mastro Alfredo Salmaggi. Addressing him in Italian, Miss Yar- (Continued on page 2.) Price 7 cents Copy Tongues of residents in the 1900 block of Eighth Street, Northwest, are wagging vigorously about the glamorous love adventures of the Rev. William W. Henry, 21, youngest member of the four Henry Brothers, evangelists, who descended upon Washington four weeks ago and made their bid for the spotlight of publicity. With the alleged mysterious poison sandwich episode of the Rev. Nathaniel Henry, last week, still been discussed, the affairs of the Rev. W. W. came to a climax shortly afterwards, and revealed that he believes in mixing women with his gospel preachments. Leaps from Speeding Car The high point came to light when Miss June Kent, 21, of 2010 Eighth Street, Northwest, a bright-eyed brunette, sought treatment at Freedmen's Hospital after having jumped, she said, from a speeding automobile operated by the dapper religion dispenser, midnight. Tuesday, July 18. Narrating the details of the leap which knocked her unconscious and bruised both hips, Miss Kent told a representative of The Tribune that the Rev. Mr. Henry had threatened her with bodily harm and had expressed his intentions of taking her to Rock Creek Park for that purpose. Fearing unknown harm, Miss Kent took her chances in a leap from the rapidly moving Peerless limousine. Knocked Unconscious The young woman stated that she was senseless for several hours, not gaining consciousness until the next day and finding herself at home. How she had been conveyed home, or what may have happened to her, Miss Kent could not state. She did not go to the hospital immediately, but pain of the wounds forced her to seek treatment a day or so later. She made two trips to the hospital, and on each record the Rev. W. W. Henry is slated as the person responsible for Miss Kent's wounds. She walked with a cane several days, and is not fully recovered yet. Ordered From House Late last Saturday night, the Rev. Mr. Henry and a relative visited a house in the 1900 block of Eighth Street, to visit Miss Kent. An occupant of the house related to a reporter that the Rev. Mr. Henry was ordered away after he threatened to heat up Miss Kent. In a conversation with a reporter, Miss Kent denied that the kitty, Mr. Henry had threatened her on Saturday night. Instead, she declared that he is now being very nice to her on the eve of his departure. Friday or Saturday, for Baltimore. "It seems I can't live with W. W., and I don't know how I'm going to live without him." Miss Kent mused about the coming separation. It was stated that the pulpitier (Continued on page two) Negro Tonsorialists Say White Barbers Too Greeay COLORED BARBERS PROTEST TRADE CODE BY WHITES Disapprove of 50-Cent Hair Cuts and $25 Guaranteed Salary Colored barbers of the District registered their disapproval of several points in the trade regulations proposed by 500 white barbers who met last week and submitted their code to the National Recovery Administration. Five Negro barbers who attended the meeting at the Tynographical Temple last Friday were not permitted to speak. According to L. O. Robertson, a barber, they were told to "listen, you didn't come here to speak." Protest 50 Cent Hair Cut A number of leading Negro barbers met Monday afternoon at the shop of G. A. Robinson, 1412 G Street, Northwest, and protested against the standard price set by the code proposed by the white barbers. The code called for a charge of 50 cents for hair cuts and 25 cents for shaves. Colored barbers pointed out that this rate was too high and advocated the present price of 35 cents for hair cuts and 25 cents for shaves. Colored barbers also protest the 10-hour day as proposed by the white barbers, who advocated an 8 a.m., to 6 p.m., day except Saturdays, when shops will close at 7 p.m. Shifts Proposed It was pointed out that no time limit should be set for shops to remain open, but barbers did not have to work more than 10 hours as shifts could be used. Colored barbers also favor the present law of shops closing one day each week with the barbers themselves designating that day. It was said that some members of the craft belong to the Seventh Day Adventist Church, which allow their members to work Sundays, but not on Saturdays. The minimum guaranteed salary of $25 for journeymen, with 60 per cent of earnings over $35 was also objected to. Colored barbers set a minimum of $12 to $15 with 60 per cent over $20. G. A. Robinson was elected chair- "The firemen got here so quickly that there wasn't much damage." "It's a good thing you have a telephone."

The adoption of a District license for all barbers was not opposed by Negro barbers. Barbers present were: G. A. Robinson, L. O. Robertson, W. J. Smith, E. A. Brown, A. L. Baker, and James Baskin. NUMBER BET CAUSE OF KILLING (Continued from page 1) man with a gun in his hand running behind him," she testified. "The man in front ran into an areaway between 301 and 305 G Street. The man with the gun shot five times, and the other one dropped dead. Just as he fell he said, 'Lord, have mercy on me.'" Miss Lucas stated the shooter had on a cap, dark pants and blue shirt, was short of stature, and of dark brown skin. When Mr. Ford attempted to trap her into saying she could not recognize the face of the slayer because of lighting conditions, but picked a man from the line-up because he wore dark clothes, Miss Lucas proved to be an exasperating witness to the examiner. Her "yeahs" of agreement with certain lead questions, then her hasty switching as she sensed a trap, caused Mr. Ford to finally give up in despair. Miss Lucas contended to the end however, that she recognized Carter as the man she saw fire. Didn't See Face Chance, the next witness, stated he saw a man run from the scene, and gave his general description. He, however, failed to positively identify Carter in the line-up at the Fourth Precinct. In the beginning of his testimony it appeared that Chance intended to identify Carter. After falling into several of Mr. Ford's traps, he blurted out that he got to his door after hearing the shots, just as the shooter was fleeing, and he could only see his back. Chance told the jury he never got a chance to look into the runner's face. Sergeant W. S. Beck, of the Homicide Squad, described the extent of his investigation and produced a revolver with which the fatal shots are said to have been fired. He stated he received the weapon from Sergeant Ogle, of the Fourth Precinct, who secured it from a man, who got it from a woman who found it on a vacant lot near the slaying. Sergeant Beck also stated that Carter refused to make any definite statements regarding the shooting after he had been delivered to police by his attorney, Mr. Ford. Carter was questioned both at headquarters and at the Fourth Precinct station. He is said to have admitted ownership of the weapon, also that he had it at the time of the shooting, but would say nothing further. Had Pistol in Bosom Sergeant Ogle testified he first saw the pistol in the bosom of William Brook, 417 K Street, who claimed Maud Parker had given it to him. Miss Parker later testified to finding the revolver early Saturday morning. Sergeant John C. Dahlglish, of the Homicide Squad, corroborated the statements of Sergeant Beck. After the lengthy official testimony of the officers, Matilda Parker, 300 G Street, was called to the stand. Her statements added to the ever increasing mystery of the shooting. She saw two men run past her house, one with a gun, but they took opposite directions, a tall man going into the areaway, and a short one cutting across a lot, the testimony continued. Miss Parker did not witness the shooting. Apparently angered, or bored with the proceedings, she related that Carter came to her house on Saturday morning, the day following the shooting. Telling of his visit, Miss Parker said Carter queried, "They call you Tillie, don't they?" She told him "Yes" Carter is then said to have remarked, "Ive killed two n-s, and Eve got three more to kill." He left looking for some meat, she added. Throughout her stay on the stand Miss Carter was particularly Wary of any traps and parried with her quizzers. Dr. C. J. Murphy, assistant to Dr. McDonald, who performed the autopsy, described the path of the bullets. Two fractured the left arm another pierced the heart and broke the seventh rib. Death was attributed to the one which perforated the heart. Mr. Ford would not allow Carter, his client, to make a statement before the jury. The dead man was the sop of Mrs. Bertha Dozier and the late Henry Dozier. Other survivors are: five sisters, Mary Ashton, Martha Brown, Ada Woodland, Irene Hawkins, Bertha Harrison; three brothers, Henry, Allen and Jesse Dozier; and others. Funeral services were conducted today (Thursday) at 1 p.m. from the Providence Baptist Church with the Rev. W. G. Coleman officiating.

(ANP)—Alfred Anderson and Dr. Albert E. Forsythe, intrepid black eagles swooped to a landing at the Central Airport here, Wednesday, at 5:30 p.m., in their Fairchild Monoplane, thirty-three hours and fifteen minutes out of Atlantic City, N.J., the first aviators of the race to complete an East-to-West transcontinental flight. the Maddox Air Corporation, sent her greetings to the daring flyers, Winging their way across the United States, they stopped at Camden, Hampton, Pa., Pittsburgh, Columbus, Indianapolis, Wichita, St. Louis, Amarillo, Kingman, and Badly Mesa. To Return by Air They left here Thursday for San Notables of Los Angeles and a huge crowd were present at the field to greet and cheer the flyers upon their arrival for the completion of their histronic hop. They delivered their letter to the mayor of Los Angeles, after which they were feted with a reception the same evening at the Home Service Bureau. This is the second trans-continental jump completed by colored aviators. Last October, J. Herman Banning and Thomas Allen finished a cross country trip after 41 hours and 21 minutes actual flying time. Banning and Allen jumped from Los Angeles, landing in Valley Stream, Long Island. Banning was killed this spring while stunting in his plane at an air circ. Anderson and Dr. Forsythe beat the record flight of Banning and Allen by eight hours and seven minutes. Because of intense heat of the desert they made a forced landing at Badly Mesa to refuel, which made them two hours late in arriving at the airport. Met by Friends The airmen were greeted by Harry Levette, an Associated Negro Press reporter; Dr. Howard, of the California Eagle and representative of the Black Wings Aviation Association; Lieutenant William Powell, Floyd Covington, Myrtle Bishop Lottie, Theodore and Gladys Walls. Among others were the Rev. and Mrs. Henry Gant, relatives of Dr. Forsythe; Clifford Gant, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Dingee, Leon Washington, William Edwards, Nellie Connor, Mrs. Adele Young, Bud Harris, theatrical star; Loren Miller, journalist; Clarence Johnson, Mrs. William Powell, Mrs. Bessie Huston, R.

He left. Neighbors are free in their comments and criticisms of the frequent visits of the young man to this house. Their statements are corroborated by Miss Kent, who declares that her friend visited her at the place any hour of the day or night. Love Not Dead Despite the numerous beatings and maulings she has received from the sheikh evangelist, Miss Kent still expresses her regard for him. "I just can't help loving him," she freely admits. The Rey, Mr. Henry asked her to marry him following an engagement in Baltimore, she said, but she is not certain that she will go through with her part of the bargain. Has Cave-Man Style The frail young woman told the reporter that the wooing methods of her suitor were of the cave-man type. A letter avowing his undying love and devotion for Miss Kent is being sought by reporters. She has searched for the one missive she has received, but was unable to find it. Miss Kent stated that her Romeo-evangelist had asked for it repeatedly and she believes that he obtained it in some way without her knowledge. If found, the letter will be released to the press. Claims She's "Colored" June Kent is a newcomer in the Eighth Street neighborhood, and is easily mistaken for white. She has pronounced Caucasian features, but claims she is not white and can prove it if necessary. On Freedmen's records she is listed as "colored." Miss Kent met the Rev, W. W. Henry at the Howard Theatre Shortly after he came to the city several weeks ago, being introduced by a girl friend. The sleek-haired angelist has been a regular wooer ever since. Miss Kent describes him as being overbearing and of quarrelsome disposition, but tells of her love despite these disagreeable qualities. The whole affair is being discussed vividly over tea cups. The Henry Brothers, W. W., 21, O. D., 23; J. L., 25; and the father, J. I., have been conducting services at the Jerusalem Baptist Church, the Rev. Augustus Lewis, pastor. The other brother, Nathaniel, who was reputed to have been poisoned by eating a sandwich given him by a woman, has been holding meetings at the Tenth Street Baptist Church.

Thus making the first round trip transcontinental flight ever completed by the group. Anderson is the only Negro transport pilot in the United States. He has been flying for several years and now heads a flying service station at Patco Field, Norristown, Pa. He lives in Bryn Mawr, Pa. He is rated as one of the finest flyers by authoritative figures in aviation circles in the vicinity. He is married. Dr. Forsythe was born in Jamaica, B.W.L., and holds a private pilot's license. Foraythe is the first pupil of Anderson's to receive such a license. The plane, which is owned by Dr. Forsythe, was christened "Pride of Atlantic City" last Friday. The Atlantic City Board of Trade sponsored the flight. Hopping off Monday, they made several stops to refuel. The Fairchild monoplane carries only 24 gallons of gasoline and ten quarts of oil.

Blind Armstrong High Graduate Manages a Seventh Street Shop Blind Armstrong High Graduate Manages a Seventh Street Shop Girl Who Lost Her Sight After Leaving School is Training Others Who Are so Handicapped at Phyllis Wheatley Craft Shop By GARLAND MACKEY Indifferent to the curious crowds that stand gaping in at them from the open door on Seventh Street, some twenty-five blind women and girls with marvelous skill and dexterity are weaving some of the most beautiful works of art that would be hard to duplicate at some of the exclusive shops on Connecicu Avenue. was perfectly at home in the crowded shop and found her way around the various machines with ease. The Seventh Street shop, which is named the Phyllis Wheatley Craft Shop, has been open since March and is supported partly by the Federal Board of Vocational Rehabilitation Education and the Blind Aid Society, 3050 R Street, The shop which is located at 1812 Seventh Street, Northwest, is under the direction of Miss Esther Dillard who is a graduate of Armstrong Technical High School, Class of 1919. Miss Dillard lost her sight soon after graduation and studied at the Marie Blode School for the Blind in Brooklyn, N.Y. after leaving high school. Well Educated She is a highly educated young woman and from her manner one would hardly realize that she is handicapped by lost of sight. She COLORED WOMAN SINGS (Continued from page 1) borough made her wishes known and received a most cordial reception from the director. But he asked her to sound a note for him to determine the pitch of her voice. Immediately, the singer went through the difficult aria of Aida while the astonished Salmaggi looked on in wonder, thrilling at the marvelous quality of the bronze beauty's voice. Enraptured, Salmaggi immediately signed Miss Yarborough to a contract assuring her of a place in the galaxy of stars singing with the Chicago company. Then there were dress rehearsals, Miss Yarborough had sung the role of Aida in the most difficult opera city in the world—Milan, to the Italian, Milano—difficult because it is highly critical of any singer. Her familiarity with the music, the ease with which she mastered the florid passages, the volume of her voice, increased the delight of the director. The triumph of Miss Yarborough is a notable one. Her past successes abroad, assure her of sufficient background to demand future engagements with the opera companies of the United States, and being the first colored woman to achieve this distinction, appearing with a white opera company in a leading role, her example is an inspiration to others who seek to follow. Referring to her performance on Saturday night, the critical New York Times said: "She scored an immediate popular success. After the first act she was three times recalled by enthusiastic aplause. "The young soprano who made her operatic debut in this role in Milano in 1930, brought to its presentation last night some admirable attributes—a vivid dramatic scene that kept her impersonation vital without over-acting, an Italian diction remarkably pure and distinct, a musicianly feeling for phrase and line, and a voice whose characteristically racial timbre, husky and darkly rich, endowed the music with an individual effectiveness." Her success was so pronounced that the program was changed and she was booked to sing again on Monday night, assisted by Jules Bledsoe as Amonasro. Again Miss Jarbore achieved a triumph and Bledsoe was also praised by the daily press critics, but with the reservation that he was not at his best. She will sing "Aida" again on Saturday of this week. The date of her appearance in "DNAfricaine" has not yet been announced. BABY, 2. IN HOSPITAL WITH STOMACH TROUBLE Taken suddenly ill.

BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL The Negro Industrial League Continues Fight for Workers Dr. Robert C. Weaver, Director of Research, Makes Strong Plea, Buttressed by Facts and Figures, in Hearing on Lumber Industry Code Capital News Service Another decisive blow in its fight to secure for Negro labor fair treatment under the federal government's national recovery program was struck by the Negro Industrial League last Saturday, when Dr. Robert C. Weaver, the League's director of research, made a strong plea for Negro labor in the Southern lumber regions at public hearings on this industry held at the Department of Commerce Building here. Impressions of Columbia University in Summer By DR. EDWIN B. HENDERSON Head of the Department of Health and Physical Education Junior and Senior High Schools While sifting in my room in Furnald Hall, I look across to Livingstone Hall and see Kiger Savoy Citing figures to show that Negroes in the industry classified as laborers, in the Southern region made up more than 60 percent of the workers in that class, Dr. Weaver objected to provisions in the code of fair competition for the lumber industry which allowed employers in the Southern industry—where Negroes predominated—to be paid only 22½ cents an hour, while employers in other regions where the labor supply was predominantly white were required to pay common labor nearly twice that amount. Discrimination in Concrete Terms He showed in concrete terms what this discrimination in wages as well as difference in hours prescribed for the Southern region and other sections meant to the 91,815 Negro laborers in the Southern branch of the lumber industry. "The Negro laborers," said Dr. Weaver, "will be required to work 4,407,168 man-hours weekly to receive a weekly pay of $999,612; while an equal number of white workers will have to work only 3,672,640 man-hours weekly to receive $1,469,056 weekly. Yet both do the same grade of work. The difference in yearly buying power between the two groups will be $24,827,046,40 in favor of the whites." Dr. Weaver also indicated by statistical analysis the effect of the different provisions for weekly hours of service in the Southern and Western regions would have on the Negro family in the South. He said: "It is apparent that if the 91,816 Negro laborers in Southern lumber mills were placed on a 40-hour week basis as has been done in the case of white laborers in other regions, then the 734,528 man-hours weekly which the colored laborers work in excess of their white fellow laborers would provide jobs for 18,853 additional workers in the Southern region whose pay would amount to $301,808 weekly or $15,694,016 annually." Takes Issue with Spokesmen Taking direct issue with spokesmen of the Southern lumber mills, who had contended that their Negro workmen were "contented and happy with the wages they were now receiving," Dr. Weaver vigorously attacked this position. "It needs no statistical survey," said he, "to establish the fact that Negro labor had suffered from unemployment to a greater proportionate degree than has white labor. Whatever else may be said of the Negro laborer in the Southern lumber mill, it cannot be said that he is contented and happy." He is downrodden and intimidated and this has been euphemistically termed at this hearing 'contentment.' "Despite bland assurances to the contrary, which we have heard made here, the only reason the Negro has not rebelled against low wages, has been because he has not been organized and as an individual workman he has been intimidated." Where Will it Stop? "If the hours and wages for the Southern regions proposed," he continued, "are allowed to stand, unemployment will not be lessened for Negro labor, Negro lumber mill workers will not be able to cope with the steadily increasing cost of living. "Somewhere this disastrous policy of establishing lower wage rates for Negro labor must stop. If it is allowed to permeate all the codes which are being presented then the white manufacturers will find that they have no sales for their products because they have allowed the Negro market to become paralyzed." Dr. Weaver appeared again this week as a representative of the league at the hearings of the oil industry. With him was John P. Davis, executive secretary of the league, who was its representative at the hearings on textiles and who will appear next week in behalf of the thousands of Negro iron and steel workers who have been denied pay increases similar to those given whites. Punishment Demanded Louisiana Lynchers NEW YORK—(ILD)—A wire demanding immediate prosecution of the 17 men indicted for the lynching of Reuben Micou, Negro worker, and enforcement of the death penalty was sent to Governor Sennett Connor of Louisiana by William L. Patterson, national secretary of the International Labor Defense; After a gesture of indictment to appease the idignation of Negro and white workers against the lynching of Micou, white gangsters have been released, and their trial postponed indefinitely. Court attaches admitted the case never came to trial. Impressions ofColumbia University in Summer By DR. EDWIN B. HENDERSON Head of the Department of Health and Physical Education and Physical Education Junior and Senior High Schools While sitting in my room in Furnald Hall, I look at and see Livingstone Hall and see Kiger Savoy diligently poring over his assignment for tomorrow. Not far away, genial President Clark of Miner Teachers' College prepares for his 7:30 a.m. conference group. On the field that lies between, archery targets have been removed and from fifty to sixty young men clad in white take the field. Conspicuously do I note Jack Young, our local director of athletics at Cardozo High School. This group, despite the sun and heat, go through touch football, speedball, playground ball, hurdling and other games in the repertory of sports. Jack does not know that Kiger and I will recall to him later how many passes he missed and how many falls to the green-ward he consumated. Around the halls at Teachers' College here one sees hundreds of colored teachers. On my tongue's Craig, Miss Carruthers, Mrs. Lizenend I can recall having seen Miss bee, Mr. DeBardeleben and Mrs. Tuck of our teachers' college; Messrs. Buckner and Gillem, Mrs. Clifford, Mrs. Edmonds, Miss Annie Duncan, Mrs. Gillem, Mrs. Emma Murray, Mrs. Ruth Cornell, (that was) Miss Vashti Maxwell, Miss Lyons, Mrs. Gladys Green, Mrs. Seldon, Miss Annabel Green, Miss Meredith, and so many more from Washington and Baltimore. Now in this fourth summer here, I feel confident in the opinion that Columbia Teachers' College justifies the claim to being the most imposing seat of intellectual liberalism and progressive education. Grant you that other institutions have excellent instructors. I doubt whether more liberal, socially minded professors are to be found together in any one institution. There are some here yet, to whom education has to do only with subject matter of the traditional types, and probably who will always steer conservatively. From among the writings of men like Dewey, Kilpatrick, Russell, Berle, Tugwell, Moleu, Raup, Count, Hullfish, Thayer and others it was not hard for President Roosevelt to develop theories of experimental government. In the field of health and physical education, men like Dr. Jesse Fiering Williams, Dr. Brownell, Dr. Maroney and Dr. Thomas Wood are names that stand out in the attempt to make physical education serve modern society and the individuals in it, instead of systems serving autocratic governments of yesteryear. The planned civilization, mere theories of a few years ago, are now being put to the test in the most stupendous governmental experiment of the ages. A few years ago, most of us would have lost our jobs by talking in terms of the social experiments of today. A few of our educators still classic-struck, thought one was cracked when one evisaged such outlooks. "Civilization had and ism wasal rays would go on as it had," would be said. Unemploy-always would go on as it had," would be said. Unemployment would be checked as it always had been; rugged individualism was necessary to progress, and so on. Things are strange to that crowd. It is interesting to note how the dogmas, the prejudices, the knowledge that knows that it knows, disappear in the midst of the opinions of the five hundred assembled daily in the class of Dr. Kilpatrick and led by him. Much of the self-assuredness and conservative thought of a lifetime melts in the light of the leadership of this grand old man. Only those whose thinking and environmental factors for long years have gotten them into such ruts that death alone will extricate them, fail to be liberated from such enslaving philosophy of life. How much I would give to see a lot of educators of ours about the country here, in on this one course even if they only came as auditors. Here at Columbia, one sees many phenomenal changes come over white teachers who before now have probably never been in the same room with a colored man in a white caller. At first they take hold of relationships gingerly, but by the time they find it of universal acceptance that we all sit where assigned, in some classes dance and play together, in the eat in halls and at the same tables, it is remarkable how most of them learn to play ball with us. This process goes easier with white women than with white men. Of course no great amount of human nature is changed in one summer, but since most have to come for four years or more, quite a deal can be done with the obstinate protoplasm. One thought is imbedded here. Education must play a great part in remaking our social world. The day of the old time politicians, unimbed with the necessity for a different economic theory and social machinery, is going. Leaders here are believing that social progress ATTORN'Y HOUSTON URGED INDICTMENT OF LA PLATA MOB Sent Copy of Report N.A.A.C.P. to State's NEW YORK CITY (NAACP)—A vigorous demand was made on State's Attorney E. J. Edelin in a letter sent by Attorney Charles H. Houston, of Washington, member of the national legal committee of the N.A.A.C.P., that he institute proceedings against the ringleaders of the mob which attempted unsuccessfully to lynch Page Jupiter. Mr. Houston urged speed and prompt action on behalf of the N.A.A.C.P. and in the "interest of public justice to white and black alike." "Perhaps this may cause you some temporary embarrassment, but it will establish you as a fearless public officer," Mr. Houston informed Mr. Edelin, "irrevocably committed to the full performance of the law is in your trust." Mr. Houston enclosed with his letter a copy of the report made by Walter White, secretary of the N.A.A.C.P., of the findings of the investigation by himself, Edward P. Lovett, of Washington; associated with Mr. Houston in the Crawford extradition case, and J. A. G. LuValle, of The Washington Tribune. The two lawyers and newspaper man spent two days in and about La Plata jr making a thorough investigation. Among the officials interviewed by Messrs. Houston, Lovett and LuValle were Judge W. Mitchell Digges, Chief Judge of the Seventh Judicial Circuit of Maryland, State's Attorney Edelin, Sheriff Cooksey, and Jailer John Dorsey, colored. Mob Formed Mr. Houston's report reveals that: "A mob of forty or fifty men assembled Monday, July 10, at Waldorf, Maryland, the home of the murdered woman, and drove to La Plata, eight miles distant. The sheriff at La Plata had been warned that the mob was forming but declined to believe that their intentions were serious. "The mob would have reached LaPlata and seized the prisoner except for the fact that a state motorcycle officer rode from LaPlata to Waldorf reconnoitering. He saw the mob forming, sped back to LaPlata and informed the sheriff. The sheriff with two state officers rushed across the lawn from the court house to the jail, got Page Jupiter, put him in a car and hurried him off to Upper Marlboro Jail, where he spent the night. "The sheriff was in such haste that he did not even take time to lock the gate of the jail yard. The mob reached the jail about ten minutes after the sheriff had left with his prisoner. "The mob got into the jail yard through the gate which the sheriff had left open. It clamored for admission to the jail but the jailer refused to open the door. Then a deputy sheriff, named Howard, had the jailer to open the door and admit the mob so that the mob might satisfy itself that Jupiter was not on the premises. At this time the mob was creating a scene of wild disorder and threatened to storm the jail. "Seizes Jailer's Pistol" "When the jail door was opened the mob seized the jailer's pistol and pushed its way to the cell blocks on both floors of the jail. Some one in the mob had a rope." "When the mob found that Jupiter, was not there; it left the premises. So far as is known no damage was, done to property, and no further violence offered to any one. "Judge Digges in Upper Marlboro was seen the next day and asked whether the state's attorney contemplated any punitive action against the leaders of the mob. He stated that he was not advised either way. Mr. Houston then told the judge that in his opinion the circumstances called for punitive action against the leaders of the mob; that while it was true that this mob did not catch up with its victim, unless the mob spirit was stamped out by sharp punishment of its ring-leaders, the next mob would arrive ten minutes earlier, and its victim would be snared; that lawlessness against a Negro today would be turned against a white man on the morrow, and that the only way to guarantee an orderly enforcement of law in a community was to stamp out lawlessness the moment it raised its head. Mob Members Known "The members of the mob are known. The jailer and two deputy sheriffs were on the spot and saw them. Judge Digges indicated that he had been advised who some of the mob members were, and gave his opinion of them in no complimentary terms. Therefore lack of identity in this case can not be the excuse for lack of prosecution. "The Judge has indicated that he will appoint the best counsel at the bar to defend Jupiter. Negroes are on both the grand and petty juries, and Jupiter stated to Messrs. Houston and Lovett in the Baltimore City Jail, on Thursday, July 13, that no one had offered him violence and that he was being well taken care of. He told the warden of the jail in their presence that he was getting enough to eat, and his appearance so indicated.

On the day this letter was due to be received by the State's Attorney, the Charles county grand jury was called in special session at La Plata and an indictment of first degree murder was found against Jupiter, but the mob action was ignored. Whether or not any vigorous attempt was made by the State's Attorney to have members of the mob identified and prosecuted is not known.

Such is the sugar-coated medicine served to whites and Negroes alike in the production "Jordan," written by Mary Kennedy, wife of Doems Taylor, the composer, and shown for the first time with a mixed cast at Pelham Manor recently. Variety's critic saw the play and expressed the opini that although it was well written, well acted and interesting, it would not be a commercial success because of the misegenation issue involved.

The girl falls in love with him, but the Negroes in the household are suspicious of his dark coloring. The boy worships the blind girl and they are wed, much to the horror of the few people who realize the boy's background. "Three months later, when the girl realizes that she is to have a child, a neighbor unwittingly mentions her Negro mate. In a beautifully written scene she wrings a confession from her husband. She stabs herself, calling for him to follow, which he does." Mentioned especially for their work in the play are Joseph Scott and Georgegett. Harvey. Vivian Baher is also a member of the cast.

McLean, chairman of the Home Mortgage Advisory Board for Nassau County, Long Island, New York, who, writing in the Sunday New York Times, expresses grave doubts as to whether the act will furnish any relief worth mentioning to anybody. Mr. McLean, who, considering his position and statement of his experience in such matters, may be regarded as an expert, admits that Congress went as far as it could, but he thinks that, unless state legislative action can be obtained which will tend to increase the market value of the bonds that the holder of the mortgage will be asked to accept in lieu of his mortgage, the law will fail almost entirely. It is to be remembered that these bonds are really long term notes given by the mortgagor (that is, the owner of the property) who is seeking to refinance a loan. These bonds are secured merely by the property itself as is now the case with an ordinary loan, except that the government, through the Home Owners Loan Corporation, to be set up, will guarantee the interest—4 per cent. The mortgagee is not obliged to accept the bonds in lieu of his present mortgage, and Mr. McLean thinks very few, if any, persons or financial institutions will accept them. He shows that as the laws now stand—in New York at least—banks, trustees, insurance companies, and other fiduciary institutions cannot accept the bonds as investments. After setting these and other difficulties forth fully he says: There then remains as possible beneficiaries of the act only the mortgages which are held by individuals who are free to act without legal limitation. Speaking, of course, only from experience of, perhaps, 1,500 cases which have come to the writer's attention, it is estimated that the percentage of home mortgages held by individuals thus free to act does not exceed 15 per cent of the whole. Furthermore, it is quite possible that only a small number of even this limited percentage of mortgages can be refinanced. However, the fundamental difficulty lies in the matter of the appraisal of the property. This appraisal is to be made by local officials, and the value of the property as set by them must not be less than one and one-fourth of the face of the mortgage. On this matter, Mr. McLean says: The working of the act depends entirely upon the value of the home as fixed by appraisal by the Home Owners Loan Corporation. This was unsoldable, and yet it may destroy all possibility of the successful operation of the act. It seems almost beyond human ingenuity to devise a reasonable method of appraisal of real property at this time as security for a mortgage. Such appraisals must inevitably be based upon a price which may reasonably be expected to be realized at a foreclosure sale. At the present time there is no such price. The last sentence is most significant. It is clear that, unless there is a rule adopted or an understanding arrived at by which property will not be appraised at its present forced sale value, but at some hypothetical value that it will be supposed to reach at some future period, no loan can issue. And this is true even though a mortgagee would be willing to swap his mortgage for a bond secured by the property, and due fifteen years hence. Mr. McLean adds: In passing this act the National Government has done its utmost. The President and the Governor of the State have urged delay and cessation of foreclosures, but the tide continues to rise. There remains recourse only to the State Legislature, which has power to deal with this problem to an extent far greater than is possessed in Congress. Nothing can be devised which will keep thousands of people from losing their homes and their invested savings but an absolute halt of foreclosures, in other words, a moratorium. In addition to all of these difficulties there is still another which was pointed out in The Tribune editorial—a difficulty that may easily take on a racial aspect. There is danger, likelihood in fact, that the local setup for appraisal of the property and recommendation of the would-be borrower or refinancer will be biased politically, racially or individually for or against a particular applicant. This can kill what otherwise might be kept alive. In short, there seems to be little ground for the glowing optimism expressed by some of our newspapers concerning the benefits likely to flow from the operation of this act. A Commendable Example Commendable indeed is the effort on the part of those men in Toledo, Ohio, who are petitioning the Federal Government through the Public Works. Administration, to include in its program of construction works some distinct project that will help lift our people economically and socially. This project, according to its sponsors, is to be a model apartments' unit, covering 54 acres in the city of Toledo, to house 1,747 families at a rental much below the rents now charged for far less space and inferior accommodations. It is not only hoped that this project will be granted, but that like projects will be financed in other cities of the country where our people, because of low wages, are forced to accept low living conditions. In our city, the capital of the nation, there exists a deplorable condition in the alleys and courts. And may it be said for these alley dwellers, contrary to most people's belief, they represent largely honest, hard working people who would rather live within their means and get a little joy out of life than to struggle with front street houses packed with roomers. The organization agitating the cleaning up and out of our alleys, started by the late Rev. J. Milton Waldron, and sponsored by the wife of the late Woodrow Wilson, would do well to emulate the example of the two progressive and civic spirited citizens of Toledo, Ohio, Olander J. Smith, and John D. Rhoades, the latter white. We Get a Second Blow The President's Blanket Code, which is supposed to apply to all industry and employment until special codes for each industry are set-up, makes no mention of domestic servants and farm laboers. This omission was evidently deliberate, for several classes of workers are designated as exempted from the provisions as to maximum hours, but with the specific proviso that such employees are to receive overtime pay of one and one-third. Admittedly the regulation of specific pay for these excepted classes would be complicated by certain perquisites that they are supposed to receive, such as food, sometimes lodging, and maybe cast-off clothes. However, employees in hotels and restaurants usually get such perquisites, except the clothes, but it is not clear whether or not such workers are covered by the blanket code. The same doubt arises as to porters and others supposed to be partly compensated by tips. This exclusion from the blanket industrial code of classes made up chiefly of Negroes and helpless, unorganized whites, constitutes a second blow that we have received since the inception of the industrial-code scheme, for we were virtually left out in the textile cotton code—the only specific code so far adopted. Perhaps a way will be found to assure these workers some share in the hoped-for prosperity. The fact that Miss Jarboro is cast in two operas for characters supposed to represent Negroes, or at least colored people, raises the question: why is it that colored people cannot be made-up to take white character parts as well as whites are made-up to act as colored characters? If Otis Skinner can be made-up to suit the part of Uncle Tom, why may not Paul Robeson be made-up as Richard the third? Isn't it because the predominant sentiment regards such transformation as Skinner's as really a make-down? An Associated Negro Press release from Chicago states that the announcement on July 17 of the designation of August 12 as Negro Day at the Century of Progress Exposition came as a complete surprise. And the grandiose plans for the observance of the day look like a big order to be filled in less than a month. Most surprising of all, however, is the fact that among the few sponsors named in the announcement, only one or two persons are nationally known. What does it mean? The capitalistic system is now getting oxygen treatment. Pledge By COLEMAN G. DUCKETT Very well; I'll put my trust in love And cease my roving. Tho' I've never known a man that throve On merely loving. But I shall take your word and try To be true-hearted. Tho' I have seen men rave and die When love departed. Truehearted?

JULY 27. 1933 Is the 15th Amendment More Sacrosanct than the 18th? The Dry South Seems Certain to Follow the Liberal North in Dropping the "Noble Experiment." The South has been the dry hope. Indeed prohibition is the one moral reform in which the South has ever taken the lead. Usually we expect this section of the country to lag behind the rest of the nation in progressive and forward looking movements. The presence of the Negro has been a moral drag on the South in almost every direction. The one shining exception is that of temperance reform. The controlling element of society is ever on the alert to remove the devastating influence of strong drink from those of feebler power of inhibition and self-control. Adults would keep intoxicating liquor from the reach of minors; the capitalists would keep it from the laborers; the well-to-do from the ne'er do wells. So that the South in endeavoring to keep liquor from the Negro was but following a universal policy where weaker and stronger elements are thrown in contact. It has long been conceded that the Eighteenth Amendment did not stand a ghost of a chance in the great city states of the North and East. Its only hope of salvation rested with the more rural South and West. But politics have played havoc with prohibition as it will with any moral question with which it becomes entangled. Naturally enough, the South wants to be on the winning side. It capitulated at the Chicago Convention, when it lined up behind Roosevelt and Repeal. LUKEWARMERS BROUGHT DEFEAT TO THE G.O.P. There had seemed to be a sudden reversal of public sentiment in the wrong direction. In 1928, both political parties declared themselves dry. Four years later, the Republicans were wetter, and the Democrats wetted. Lukewarmness lost the Grand Old Party both its moral reputation and political victory. By concurrence of the Democratic House and Republican Senate, the issue was submitted to popular ratification. State after state lined up on the side of repeal. The tide of wetness was sweeping over the nation like a mighty flood. "Just wait till it strikes the South," exclaimed the optimistic drys, "and the flood will begin to ebb." It entered the South through West Virginia, which, being already Northernized, yielded to the onsweeping flood. Alabama and Arkansas constituted the inner line of defence. But these also gave way as a bank of sand before the sweeping tide. The score now stands eighteen to none in favor of wetness. In the campaign of 1840, as now, Maine was regarded as the indicative state. "As goes Maine so goes the election." The echo resounded throughout the land: "Have you heard how Maine went?" "She went hell-bent for Governor Kent, and Tippecane and Tyler, too." So far the whole nation has gone hell-bent for the demon of liquor. But you cannot indict a whole nation. It may, for the time being, adopt a mistaken policy, but like running water, it will in the long run purify itself. The South has been the dry hope.

GENUINE DRYS SOON GAVE UP THE FIGHT The genuine drys, as soon as they discovered that the vast majority of the people were bent on eliminating the Eighteenth Amendment questioned the wisdom of continuing the fight on a bare constitutional technicality. It probably would have been more disastrous to the final cause of temperance, had thirteen of the less populous states succeeded in frustrating the will of the mighty majority than to let matters take the normal course for the present. It would be needless as it would be senseless to persist in keeping a law on the statute books which had been avowedly repudiated by the overwhelming vote of the people. It is bad enough to have sections of the Constitution nullified by silence and unregistered consent, to have it openly and avowedly repudiated would sap the foundation of all law. But now that the Eighteenth Amendment is, or soon will be out of the way the battle for true temperance has but begun. The schools and churches must take up where they left off when the law was enacted, to bring up to a new generation the principles of sobriety and temperance.

THE PROHIBITION EXPERIMENT SET BACK THE CAUSE OF TEMPERANCE The prohibition experiment, though noble in purpose, has been unfortunate in result. It has set back the cause of temperance for fully a generation. Naturally we may expect excesses all around when the flood gate of free flowing liquor is opened wide. Though delayed for a season, the genuine drys will not admit defeat. Moral reforms never go backwards. The failure of this noble experiment has been unfortunate in that it has weakened respect and reverence for the Constitution as our political religion. When you eliminate one doctrine from your code of belief you weaken the whole creed. Negro Americans, especially, can find no cause for rejoicing at the reskindment of the Eighteenth Amendment. Do you think that the Fifteenth Amendment is any more sacrosanct than the Eighteenth? The prohibition experiment, though noble in purpose, has been unfortunate in result.

The Negro Industrial League, with headquarters in this city, is making a valiant fight for Negro workers in the hearings on the proposed codes for the various industries. The league's executive secretary, John P. Davis, and its research director, Dr. Robert C. Weaver, have made telling and wellbuttressed presentations of the Negro's cause in the two hearings that have been held, and they are busy assembling facts and figures to present at hearings yet to come. By HENRY LITCHFIELD WEST President, American Colonization Society (Extract from book published by the society.) Liberia Defaults Nearly two years ago the Liberian government began to default the payment of the principal and interest (of the Firestone loan) and was still in default when the principles of an uncompleted plan of assistance were evolved by the League of Nations in Geneva last September. Further progress toward the realization of the plan was made to depend upon the outcome of negotiations for financial assistance between the Liberian government and the Finance Corporation of America. Accordingly the vice-president of the Corporation went to Monrovia in November. Then out of the clear sky came a crash like thunder. Almost immediately after the arrival of this official in Monrovia, the legislature of Liberia adopted a remarkable joint resolution which the President promptly approved. It provided for the suspension of payments of interest and principal of the loan from June 30, 1932, until such time as the Liberian revenues shall have amounted to $650,000 annually for two consecutive years, the present revenue being approximately $400,000; for the reduction of personnel and salaries of fiscal officials; and absolutely disregarding all priorities stipulated in the loan agreement. This drastic, violent and unexpected action was at once cabled to the State Department, where it created a sensation. A vigorous protest was at once forwarded to Monrovia, asserting that "the American government viewed with very deep concern the action of Liberia leading to repudiation," and pointing out that an agreement could not be legally changed or modified unless by both parties thereto. United States Protests Further than this, Liberia was informed that the United States would protest against any financial assistance to Liberia from any source whatever unless the prior rights of American citizens were met in full or modified on a basis of mutual consent. The message was sent to Minister Mitchell in Monrovia for presentation to President Barclay. A reply was received, not from Mr. Barclay but from his secretary, which, according to the State Department, was "so discourteous" that it was returned. When Minister Mitchell attempted later to communicate with President Barclay his letter was sent back to him unopened. Was the Liberian government disturbed by this action of the United States? Not at all. On the contrary, it began a series of defiant acts. The Supervisor of Internal Revenue was summarily removed and advised to leave the country on a certain boat at a certain date. An effort was made to force the American Financial Advisor to agree to comply with illegal acts by threatening his dismissal. The Supervisor of Internal Revenue was dispossessed of his books and papers. The funds of the government were no longer placed with the officially designated depository but were diverted to a private business firm on the water front. All these acts were in direct violation of the terms of the loan agreement and were persisted in notwithstanding protests from the parties concerned. Liberia had taken the bit in her teeth and was running headstrong. League of Nations Intervenes Then the American government unfortunately having involved itself with the League of Nations and having compromised to some extent its former policy of direct action concerning Liberia, made an appeal to the international committee of the League at Geneva. That body realized the seriousness of the situation and finally cabled a request to the Liberian government to abandon its attitude as otherwise the League plan of assistance could not be made effective. In the meantime, the Finance Corporation, which had been accused of not heeding the appeal of Liberia for a modification of the loan agreement, informed the Liberian government that it desired to be of constructive help but could not do so as long as the repudiation legislation remained in force. It is stated that the Corporation, if given the opportunity, would have been willing to declare a mortorium as to the debt and materially reduce the interest agreed upon during the prosperous times of seven years ago. President Barclay declined to officially recognize the representative of the American corporation and herein is an illustration of how comparatively small incidents influence larger issues. When the Liberian Secretary of the Treasury called at the State Department in Washington he was told that the Liberian question had been transferred to Geneva. The resentment felt at this "discourtesy" was reflected in the statement of the Liberian administration that Geneva Think It Over Bv BEATRICE M. MURPHY "I'm sorry, Madam, we haven't got what you want, but here's something that is just as good, and it doesn't cost any more. In fact, it is the same price as the other." Or, "Madam, wouldn't you rather try this in place of the other? It's just as good, and a few cents cheaper." Housewives all over the country are used to these expressions, and many times they accept what is offered instead of what they want, duping themselves into believing that it is just as good or better. You know there are people who do the same thing with life. They go in and demand what they want, knowing full well what the price will be, and willing to pay it; but they find something that is just a little cheaper, so they accept a place in the tree-tops when they might have had it in the stars, simply because they haven't the moral courage to pay the few extra sacrifices and pain that it would probably cost them. Or, maybe, like the housewife, they want to save themselves the trouble of keeping on until they find exactly what they want. Some human beings are entirely too easily satisfied with something that is just as good when they might have had the best. Of course the tragic part of it all is that they have to pay just as much—and often much more—in human valuation for what they receive as they would have paid for what they wanted. At least the housewife can be excused because it does sometimes become necessary to save a penny whenever she can, but all human beings should realize that a life is a small thing to give for something that is really worth while. It is true that life is short, but since you can't live it but once, why not try to put a lot into it as well as take a lot out of it. You never get as much out of it as you put into it anyway. The real aim of a man's life should be not to see how good a substitute he can find for what he wanted, but getting the place he started for. Of course we realize that sometimes the going gets rough and the price seems bigger than the article and we lean toward giving up the struggle and veer off the track. Nobody knows where we intended to go, anyway, so no one will realize that we're playing coward. But you know; and always when the world admires your achievement, you will have to acknowledge to yourself that you could have done better. It matters not whether or not the world knows, the man who lies down on the job, always has himself to whom he must justify his actions. And you know anything that is worth going after in life is worth paying any price for. If it isn't then why go after it? For a man must have yearnings that bring out his highest and best or he will have to shrink to fit the soul that he has starved for want of exercise and something to reach for. Life is full of things that are just as good if you want them, but the real man or woman doesn't. In fact, most of us really don't know what we want anyhow, although we sense-intuitively—a substitute when it takes the place of the original. Although it was rather conceited of him, I admire Paul for being able to pat himself on the back and say, "I have fought a good fight. I have finished my course and kept the faith." At least he had something to be conceited about. He wasn't satisfied with something just as good, although the price he paid for what he got was pretty high. Think it over.

SPECIAL FEATURES Digesting the News By Clifford C. Mitchell A WHITE MAN SPEAKS! Since I have vowed to turn this column over to a digest of conditions that will help the Negro in business the responses and suggestions arriving in the mail give me greater courage and inspiration to try to accomplish something most needy and to use my protest in a manner to best help ourselves not particularly caring whether it meets the approval or disapproval of those who think of protests in the form of nation-wide campaigns to collect money to be used in making bigger and greater protests. One of the most encouraging missives—and quite lengthy—arrives from a white man in Atlanta, Georgia, and while it is encouraging to me because it justifies my position in the use of this column, yet it is a very great blot on the race and in a community where we boast of many of the leading schools and churches of the country. I am unable to quote his entire letter, but I will offer some quotations from it which, without any, comment from me, tells the whole story. "I have just read your 'Helping the Negro in Business,' and I have gone over it very carefully and am taking this opportunity to make plain a few facts." "I am a Southern born and bred white man, but have a sincere desire to help the colored man." "At various times I have attempted to help the colored man to help himself, not by giving him charity, but by trying to make him self-supporting. Never yet have I undertaken such a task as it seems to be to get this started. I have contacted the leaders of the race here, and without exception they are enthusiastic and heartily endorse and approve what I suggest doing, but they hesitate to get busy on the job. They want to get in on it and ride it for the pecuniary gain there is in it and not for the good that it will and can do for the race. "Never have I heard so many conflicting statements made, nor such a wide difference of opinions among a group of men who should have a single purpose. Some of the crowd say, 'Do not see such and such a person,' for they are not with us and belong to a different set. Another will say, 'By all means see such and such a person,' and it will be diametrically opposite what the former will say. "It is no wonder to me now that some wrongs go along without effort being made for redress since there is no unity among them. Instead of presenting a solid phalanx to the front, there are little scattered bunches or cliques to whom nobody pays any attention." "I tell you that if every Negro dollar deposited in Atlanta banks was deposited in the Negro bank, that institution would over night instead of Atlanta having three big white institutions in Atlanta, and instead of Atlanta having three big ones there would be four. There are millions of dollars in cash deposited in the banks here that belong to Negro depositors and less than 2 per cent of it is in the Negro bank. "If the assets of the bank were increased they would be in better shape to lend money to Negro merchants and other enterprises conducted by the colored population." I could fill up twice this amount of space in quoting from the letter just received from the prominent white Atlantian, but enough has been written to indicate what "thinkers" think of the pitifiable plight of the Negro not being willing to help himself. And the condition in Atlanta is but typical in practically every community in the country that has an appreciable colored population. appreciation of the scholarly gentleman who has just passed from our midst. Doctor Henry L. Bailey was not merely a teacher, he was truly an educator and a sincere devotee of that culture which comes only from the passionate pursuit of the higher learning. His college degrees, earned before the hectic rush for a straight road to a job, belong to that classic age when the college was primarily an association of men of letters; and his recognitions and friendships included some of the leading men of this county. I know of no one in America whose actual experience as teacher of languages has had to swing the entire gamut both ancient and modern that is comparable with the conspicuous success achieved by Dr. Bailey. cess achieved by Dr. Bailey. In Greek he prepared for college entrance the first bows accepted at Harvard direct from old M Street High School. He has been the diligent and efficient instructor as well in German, French Spanish and Latin for hundreds of the rank and file in successive generations of high school students. Apt to teach, he was also a lover of the best in literature and made reading his recreation and chief amusement.

LESLIE FRAZIER "BEYOND THE RAINBOW" A CHRISTOPHER BOOK "Beyond the Rainbow" is to a degree, a sequel to "To the Foot of the Rainbow" which was published in 1927 by the Century Company, and in 1928 by Nash and Grayson, of London. The quest which "Beyond the Rainbow" describes had its origin in the 3,000 miles of wandering on Lorschack in the American Southwest described in "To the Foot of the Rainbow" by Kluckhohn. Clyde Kluckohn attended Culver Military Academy, Lawrenceville School, and the universities of Princeton and Wisconsin. From the state of Wisconsin he was elected Rhodes scholar and went to Oxford University in 1928. He studied abroad for four years at Oxford, Paris, and Vienna. At present he is assistant professor of anthrology in the University of New Mexico and Associate in Archaeology of the School of American Research of the Archaeological Institute of America. "Beyond the Rainbow" recounts the adventures and misadventures of a group of undergraduates from the University of Wisconsin and a group of undergraduates from Oxford University, who were seeking a way to Wild Horse Mesa, a vast tableland of southeastern Utah, which according to report, had never been visited by white men. This book will be reviewed in this column at an early date. * * * * Langston Hughes, author of "Not Without Laughter," has just arrived in Japan after a year's trip through Russia and Siberia.

A Successful Flight A Monument to Faith The N.A.A.C.P., this week, threw its hat into the ring to defend Page Jupiter, alleged confessed slayer of Mrs. Evelyn Reifschneider, white. Attorney Charles Houston, the able defender of George Crawford, accused slayer of two women in Virginia, will represent Jupiter. Houston will ask for a change of venue on the grounds that his client cannot get a fair trial in Charles County, Maryland. One can look forward to a hard fight to keep Jupiter from the hang- man's noose. Ralph Metcalfe, Marquette University's champion Olympic spinner, continues to show his heels to opponents. This week in Stockholm, Sweden, he succeeded in breaking the 200-meter record by seven-tenths of a second. It all goes to prove that location has nothing to do with one's ability to win a race, provided he can run. But there is an exception—the South. Metcalfe would not be permitted to show his speed against white sprinters in such states as Georgia. Metcalfe was wise when he quit the South. C. Alfred Anderson and Dr. Albert Forsyth successfully flew from Atlantic City, N.J., to Los Angeles, Calif., last week. They made the approximate 3,000 miles in 38 hours after making six stops to refuel. The late Bessie Coleman, famous flyer, once said: "The Negro is not afraid to fly an airplane, as some people claim. If he is given equal opportunity to fly, he would be second to none in skillful flying." Maybe she was right. At Ninth and T Streets, Northwest, stands a recently completed building. It is beautifully designed and expertly built. It is the new Odd Fellows' building which is soon to be dedicated. This structure, costing $185,500 to erect and furnish (paid cash), is a monument to the faith of the Negro in his race.

Soft colored lights were used on the pavilion making it cool and inviting to the heat-dodging city people; the women were clad in either Cainty white or delicately colored organdy frocks or soft, cool sport dresses of crepe, pique or linen, while the men were at last rid of the hot undesirable tuxedos, wearing instead white linen and Palm Beach suits or sport coats and flannel trousers. ‘The Bluebird Orchestra furnished the music which was snappy and full of pep. At three-forty-five, the strains of “Home, Sweet, Home” were played and the happy throng wended their way to the parked autos only to speed to town to the Temple Luncheonette to complete the morning’s pleasure. Saturday found yet another popular organization, the Derby Club, having a delightful picnic and outing at Colton, Md. This club has given some very swanky dances during the winter season and of course the outing was characteristic of their affairs. After a day of boating, crabbing, fishing and whatnot, the guests were served an appetizing dinner, after which dancing and card play- {ng completed the evening’s entertainment. Jewel Jennifer and her orchestra furnished music. While the Derby Club held sway, at, Colton, the Chi Delta Mu fra- 4ernity and their friends wénded their way to Carr's Beach for a day of real beach and picnic fun. Colton, however, seemed to be the drawing card last week; for, another popular club, the Odd Card Whist Club, with their wives and friends, selected it for their pienic and outing on last Tuesday. This club, which is strictly a whist club, though several times each year they lay aside whist playing to entertain their friends with ‘an enjoyable dance, has divided itself into teams which play against each other during, the year for,possession,of silver loving cups to be kept by the teams, winning first and second place until the’ next year. These cups were presented to the winning teams on the picnic last Tuesday and made a fitting climax to the club's activities. Warren, Jones, a guest of the club, made the presentation speech and nae the cups. The team of Clark and Vaughn received. first prize and that of Brown and Arthur, second prize. Those partaking of the fishing, ball-playing, swimming, dancing and other activities offered by the club were: Mr. and Mrs, Boyd Clark, Mr. and Mrs, Edward Arthur, Mr. and ‘Mrs. Clarence Vaughn, Mr, and Mrs. William Baker, Mr, and Mrs. Mercer Conway, Mr. and Mrs. Goslee Brown, Andrew Olfus, Miss Louise Fraction, ‘Mr. and Mrs. Milton Edwards, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Mills, Mr. and Mrs, Clifton Roberts, Miss Marie Ross, Warren Jones and the Micses Ethel and Thelma Mason: ‘The Choir Auxiliary of Asbury JALB..Church gave, an, outing las kat, Colton, Md. ‘The out-door Factivities, such ‘as swimming, boat: ing, fishing and crabbing provec quite a change from the everyda} routine of the city life. _.

BUTTER ‘Sie . @ IN OUR MEAT MARKETS @ oi a cute I warn the Jews: even if Hitler is a Jew, as one Vienna news- paper claims, do not tell anybody about it, and do not lay claim to him. You are certain to be “stung” and “bitten” if you do. We Amer- ican Negroes know. ‘There was one Warren Gamaliel Harding, recent president of the ‘United States, who was reputed on good authority, supported by am- ple affidavits, to have a little Ne- we blood—to be, therefore, what they call in America “a Nee We jumped up and claimed him, hefore waiting to find out how he was going to “act.” After he acted, we were sorry we ever owned him and have been trying to disclaim him ever since. If he had Negro blood, as was suf- ficiently proven to satisfy us, that was about all he had-—and in America that does not count much in ne ell, Hitler has already “acted” ‘and you know what to expect of him. Byen if he is a Jew, the Tews ought to forget it. If they scrape ground in genealogies they may also alacores that he descend- ‘ed from one of Hannibal's soldiers, also, who crossed the Alps some years ago, and who acted just like other soldiers when they invade the homes and firesidés in “the enemy country.” Besides, it will not be strange, if Hitler be a renegade Jew, “pass- ing” for Aryan, that he will be mpre devilishly cruel to Jews than the real Aryans might be. That is the way “passing,” hiding, dodg- ing renegade Negroes act, Mob sentiment and segregation ‘programs are often led by those ‘whose families have “passed over.” ‘That is one way in which they try to conceal their identity: by out- doing the others—by outedeviling ‘the devils. That is the human psy- chology of those who sail under false colors: a sort of bastard in- feriority complex. Anyway, take it from us, if Hit- ler is a Jew, keep it to yourselves: if he he a relative of yours, “tell it not in Gath.” Chicago White Aviator Lauds Negro Flyers , CHICAGO—(ANP)—Lieut, Col. John C. Robinson, instructor of the Curtiss-Wright Aeronautical Uni- versity in commenting Friday to a reporter of the Associated Krerre Press upon the epochal flight of Alfred Anderson and Dr. Albert Forsythe who spannei the Unite States Wednesday from_ Atlantic City, N.J. to Glendale, California, stated: “The flight of Anderson and Dr. Forsythe is indicative of the dawn of the now day for the Negro in aviation, despite the more numer- ous and more varied handicaps than those faced by any other group. "The young Negro has quietly persevered in the different aviation centers of the country in order to equip ‘himéelf. with the. technical Knowitdge necesstry in the air, “Inspiting is the feat. of An- derson and Forsythe, and the achievement of these eagles of the air are but signs of the big things Negroes will achieve in aviation in the next five years. “Not only is the Negro an avia- tion enthusiast, but he finds him- self at home in the air, And I pre- die that, once, he gets going, the names, of black men will illimine the sky alongside of those of Lind- bere, Post, and Balbo.” MERCHANT TO RUILD $8,000 STRUCTURE Sites _ COLUMBUS, Ga.(ANP)—A per- mit has been. issued at the office of the city building inspector here to Sidney Porter, well known, Negro merchant and realty owner, for the erection of a two-story brick business building 50x78 feet. at the southeast corner of Sixth Avenue and Eighth Street, to cont $8,000.

Professor G: David Houston, who with Edward (White House) Pryor and Major Robert Russa (Tuskegee) Moton, is one of the three men of color who have telephone access to the President of the United States at any time without an appointment, will be one of the better known Washingtonians written about at length in this column soon. According to all present indications, next week's issue will be the last of Federal News Notes, as its author is scheduled to leave for Chicago on or about August 3, en route to New Orleans, America's most interesting city, his home town. Edward (Treasury Dept.) Henderson, of 1514 R Street, Northwest, who not only was Manager Adolph Ammann's private messenger for ten years, but is also the manager of the Loans and Currency Division of the Treasury Department's quartet, would have you know that the quartet, whose members are John T. Ward, first tenor; C. W. Gray, second tenor; William Canty, baritone; and James Carroll, bass, was requested by Mr. Ammann, prior to his death, to sing two hymns over him. The hymns, "Nearer My God To Thee" and "Lead Kindly Light," were sung. George W. Smith accompanied the singers. **** What State Department messenger is being sued by his girl wife for a limited divorce on the grounds of non-support? Secretary of the Interior Ickes, who is also public works administrator, authorized the Newshawk to reprint the following statement: "To avoid widespread disappointment it is necessary to warn the public generally that the public works administration nstaff in Washington will be limited to a small technical group to pass upon projects submitted to the board. The Federal organization in each state will be limited to a small advisory board to recommend projects to Washington. "It is our plan and intention to limit overhead sharply, so that as much money as possible may go into public works, principally for labor, to distribute work as widely as possible and create pay rolls." "Employment on Federal projects will be handled locally, and on contract work the government will not make the employment. On state and municipal projects the employment of labor will be handled by local state or municipal agencies. "This statement is made with the hope that the time and money of those contemplating coming to Washington to seek employment in the public works administration may be saved." ***** Incidentally, don't waste your time and energy making applications for a position in the Industry Recovery Act set up unless your sponsor knows Mr. Johnson or your Congressman or Senator is willing to follow up your application with telephone calls daily. This message is for unemployed folk of color. What Department of Justice clerk met the Newshawk stilling with one of the former's old hometown sweethearts? Has that flame been altogether extinguished since the marriage of the two principals, or does the fire still smoulder? The Newshawk knows. **** Joseph (Commerce Dept.) Bryant will be interested in a recent ruling by the Treasury Department that an employee summoned to testify in the police court must do so on his own time and not at government expense. Chief Clerk A. T. Thorson, of the Bureau of Supplies and Accounts, United States Coast Guard, declined to allow Miss Mary H. Dickerson, 1211 O Street, Northwest, pay for the time she spent in the police court, when she was summoned to testify as a government witness. He ruled that she must either take the time as annual leave or leave without pay. Had the lady in question ignored the subpoena, she would have laid herself open to a sentence of not to exceed 48 hours and $50 for contempt of court. Furthermore, the District branch of the police court where the case was tried, does not pay any witness fees. George (Labor Dept.) Moses sent the writer a clipping of the incident where Al Johnson clipped Walter Winchell a "rabbit punch" on the back of his neck, flooring him, last Friday night in Hollywood. I don't know Mr. Moses's idea, but if he will read and watch developments he will see that Al will be plenty sorry that he pulled the trick. The press is the most potent influence in the United States and it is "suicide" for any one in public life to unduly antagonize any prominent member of it. Ask ex-President Herbert Hoeyer; he knows. Heywood Broun in his imitable style voices the writer's opinion when he writes: "Jolson should have known better than that." Any promoter would be glad to underwrite such an encounter. It would be possible to pack the Yankee Stadium with a hundred thousand people who would eagerly pay $10 anpiece to see Walter Winchell knocked down once. "The War correspondents at the hit say that Jolson hit Winchell cause that interpreter of the American scene has prepared a motion picture script based upon real or supposed incidents in the life of Jolson. Even if there is justice in this assertion, Winchell has a right to say that he has sinned in company with the masters. "Dickens and Defoe drew their characters out of real life, and only recently Somerset Maughan composed a novel, using as his material certain scandalous rumors concerning a dead lion. If the reputation of Thomas Hardy is not to be protected, why should the life of Al Jolson be sacrosanct?" **** What Interior Department messenger was surprised on the south side of the reservoir last Sunday night with his friend's wife? Is it true that Andrew (Post Office) Sambels, his wife, and two sisters, are contract bridge players of the first water? **** Dr. Joseph C. Brazier, of 1700 New Jersey Avenue, is one of the few men who came up here in the government service, completed his collegiate and technical training, bought a home, married, resigned, and built up a successful practice in his chosen field. He and his wife are the proud hosts of their nieces, Margery, Melba, and Audrey, who are the daughters of Dr. C. Sidney Brazier, of Donaldsonville, La. These beautiful young women will join their father in Chicago on or about August I, at which time the family will "take in" the World's Fair. Boyd (Commerce Dept.) Clarke, who smacks a tennis ball like Lee Stoffen, is president of the New Orleans University Club, which has on its rolls every person from Louisiana, including Judge Cobb, Louis Wehlinger, Louis Lautier, Doctors Jollet, Humble, Smith, Brazier, and Parker, the Rev. Mr. Fisher, of the Justice Department; Miss Camille Nickerson, Albert (Treasury Dept.) Adams, Alphonse (Bureau of Standards) Perkins, and others, too numerous to mention, including the Newshawk, would have you know that the club is giving its annual picnic at Sparrow's Beach this year on Friday, August 4. Contact any of the above named persons or anybody from Louisiana for particulars. Lester (Coast Guard) Grammar, who is one of the few draftsmen who have been placed as such in the Federal service, is entertaining his sister, Miss Jeannette Allen, from New Orleans, at 1843 Vernon Street, Northwest, apartment 4. Harry (Capitol) Parker, who is a good friend of Arthur (State Dept.) Smith, has for 43 years been majordomo of the House Ways and Means Committee which handles all tariff and revenue measures. It is not generally known that Mr. Parker was born on George Washington's Mount Vernon estate. He has a host of friends and some enemies, a few of whom tried to trick him out of his job recently. He is a leader in charitable work at the Metropolitan A.M.E. Church, and according to Will Kennedy, writing in last Sunday's Star: "Because of their friendship for him, many leaders in the official life of the capital city have visited and spoke at gatherings in that little(?) colored church—such men as Chief Justice Charles E. Hughes, William Jennings Bryan, President Cleveland, and members of the diplomatic corps from some of the great nations." ****** Bill (State Dept.) Kelly motored to Harrisburg last week with a group of five friends. Although the trip was more or less uneventful, a good time was had by all and Bill upheld his reputation of being a perfect host. **** Sam (Justice Dept.) Noisette is a bit shaky these days, since A. V. Dalrymple, of California, whose job as national prohibition director expires August 10, has been telling friends that he was slated for the new post of head of the bureau of investigation of the Department of Justice. This is the bureau that will absorb the prohibition office for the rest of prohibition's life. J. Edgar Hoover, Noisette's present chief, is the present head of the Justice Department's bureau of investigation. S. H. Burrow, who is one of Washington's most astute observers of political trends and politicians, says: "While Hoover has plenty of enemies and is accused of an anti-red complex it is not likely that he would be dropped in favor of Dalrymple." *** Dalrymple, who is also angling for a berth as commissioner of industrial alcohol, the place now occupied by Dr. James. M. Doran, should have a chance here since it is generally rumored that Doran is a Ku Klux Klan politician, and in addition is a holdover Republican. Yet it is said that he has the support of Postmaster General Farley. ***** Bill (State Dept.) Steen and the writer have a pet argument which we should like to have the public settle. It all came about as a result of the newspaper references to the African territory now ruled by the liberal sovereign, Haile Selassie I, after the recent visit of Ras Destu Demu. Some writers use the term "Abyssinia," while others prefer "Ethiopia." Bill likes the former, and I like the latter. Who is correct? ***** With some 15,000 Federal employees due to be dropped from the rolls and immediately reappointed in an extraordinary shake-up of agencies on August 10, Controller General McCarl has been called on to decide the puzzling status of the affected employees. The biggest question involved in the drastic reorganization, from the standpoint of the employees, is that whether those who are reappointed in this queer on again, off again, gone again transaction will retain their present grades and salaries or suffer reductions to entrance grades as "new employees." The reorganization, provided for in the special executive order sent to Congress on the final day of the special session, June 10, last, affects nearly a score of Federal agencies, chief among which are the bureau of internal revenue, the bureau of investigation of the Department of Justice and the bureau of prohibition. Apparently not even the heads of the absorbing agencies are exempted under the new order, which would mean that just a few weeks after appointing Guy T. Helvering as commissioner of internal revenue, President Roosevelt is to order him dismissed and presumably re-appointed at once. The writer confidentially expects scores of Negroes to be dropped and never reappointed. I hope that I am wrong.

Haitian Rural School Board Studying at Columbia NEW YORK-Eighteen Haitians, representing the entire rural school supervising staff of the Republic, are attending Summer courses at Teachers' College, Columbia University. The group was sent here by the Government to study American methods of rural education, with the object of reorganizing the Haitian system. On their sight-seeing tours here, they have been impressed with the politeness of the New York policemen and have enjoyed particularly riding in the subway and elevated riding in the subway and elevated. Also, they have found that New York is not so hot in the summer that it is impossible to live there, as is generally believed in Haiti, they said. The group includes the first Haitian woman ever to attend Teachers' College, Miss Laura Nedal, who is majoring in music.

He received a fractured skull, crushed right cheek, and a broken left leg. The car which struck Gray is said by police to have been operated by Louis Abell, of Hollywood, Md. The machine from which Gray jumped is claimed to have been driven by Nelson Forbes, of Oakville. Eighty-One Negroes Lose Jobs to White Students CHAPEL HILL, N.C.—(CNS)—Eighty-one jobs in the dining halls and other departments of North Carolina University here which have up to this year been held by Negro workmen will be lost to them this fall. The university announced last week that the jobs were needed by students who could not otherwise afford to pay their tuitions. Salaries from the jobs approximated over $25,000 annually. NEW ORLEANS, La.—In a last-minute statement, before they were executed here July 23, on framed charges of murder on the basis of confessions extorted from them by torture, Thomas Franklin and Eli Terrell, Negro workers, thanked if they had asked I.L.D. defense for efforts made to save their lives and expressed the conviction that if the yhad asked I.L.D. defense earlier, the execution might not have taken place.

Youth's Corner Here again the colorful and politically-minded Arlingtonon, Murray Richardson, grabs the spotlight and attempts to divulge to the readers a few of his choice bits of political philosophies, current gossip and what not. Anyhow your columnist obtains a breathing spell and Murray obtains an opportunity to scribble. **** POLITICS AT A GLANCE By Murray A. Richardson Guest Columnist It is commonly known that there have been some few Negro Democrats from the time of Jefferson Davis. However, I am convinced that we still have some who have given their approval to all that has been done in the Democratic party and these are still ready to fight right down the line for the principles of this party. The recent Hoover administration tended to make the Negro voter politically conscious. It helped him to remember the old maxim, "Never put all of your eggs in one basket." Consequently a tide of Negro votes, unprecedented in American elections, were marked into the Democratic columns. Up to the present time no definite signs of friendship has been shown to the Negro by the victorious Democrats—outside of the recent appointment of Publisher Robert Vann to the post of assistant to the Attorney General. Presumably other affairs are more engrossing to the executives of the government at this time than this little matter of awarding party plums to deserving Negro party affiliates. It is this writer's opinion, however, that in the due course of time all deserving and loyal Negro Democrats will receive their share of the "spoils." THEY TELL ME THAT— Raymond Tyler, erstwhile State messenger and noted man about town, was attempting to act in the capacity of swim instructor to a bevy of the "fain" ones at the Francis Pool last Saturday eve...seen also in and around said pool on Sunday were Richard Johnson, Raymond Washington, Katherine Hunter, Cutes Carter, Ruby Cones, and a few others whose names I cannot be vividly recalled at this time. Said splash emporium is fast becoming the center of Washington's more popular set on these hot Sunday afternoons. The recent brawl staged as a preliminary to the regularly sponsored houts at the Hollywood Arena, and which featured Al Jolson and Walter Wincell as the principals may have a tendency to put a damper on the adventure-some spirits of our own sepia dirt-digging news-hounds. What this race of ours needs is a first class press agent, if there are any among us, it is news to me. So long has the wickedness and loose morals supposedly prevalent in our group been exploited that a wonderful opportunity awaits an enterprising and ambitious youngster to gain fame and fortune by "selling" the cultural and educational phase of the Negro's life to the various Negro periodicals all over the country. Your columnist, Alvin (Chick) Webb, recently won a prize in the Family Circle Magazine...no it wasn't for offering any cooking recipe... At the recent card tournament given by Local No. 71, Federal Employees Union, L. J. W. Hayes, contrary to the consensus of opinion, failed to win a whist prize...said tournament was a wonderful success from both a social and financial angle, however. That noted spiritual and religious leader, Elder, Solomon; Lightfoot Michaux, received lots and lots of newspaper space in the Washington Daily News, relative to his plan to stage a baptismal ceremony in the Mirror Pool near the Lincoln Memorial... this marks the first decided "break" that a Negro has received from a white daily in quite some time... evidently your favorite commentator's recent comments along this line were perused by some keenly interested observers... well, 'tis the power of the press. The recent young victim of an angry numbers player who was shot to death by an enraged man was mistaken for his brother (who wrote the number) and was entirely innocent of any "welching"... 'tis sad, indeed. A certain well known ladies' man recently wrote a fervent letter to a young lady whom he was especially anxious to hear from...so in order to be sure that she would reply, said desperate young man enclosed a self-addressed, stamped envelope. Two months passed and the poor fellow received no answer....sad, isn't it?...because the heartless young lass merely took the enclosed stamp of the envelope and wrote another letter to her own "secret passion"...just a game of "hearts"...but he received the joker. YOUTHFUL PERSONALITIES Miss Mattie Barnes Cute, pathetic, graceful—a three-word summary of Mattie Barnes. Student of Dunbar High School Native Washingtonian. Extremely popular with the gentlemen. Attributes it to a "sisterly" attraction that they claim they have for her. You know the kind: "You're so small, that I fell as though I am a big brother of yours." Needless to say this fraternal state of mind usually changes into a deeper form of emotion in the course of a few days of grace—in BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL U.S. TIRES CHECK THESE LOW PRICES (U.

Possesses the model figure for a bathing suit. Recently returned from a vacation in Atlantic City, sometimes called the Playground of the World. While there she resided in the luxurious Liberty Apartment Hotel, advertised as "the most modern and best equipped apartment hotel for Negroes in the East." Aside from possessing a wonderfully rounded personality, Miss Barnes is an engaging conversationalist. Believes the oft-repeated statement that the average "run" of girls discuss nothing but clothes, cars, parties, men and males. Can you imagine the average young lady discussing psychology, finance, and the changing trend of morals intelligently for half an hour without affecting complete boredom and disgust? I didn't believe it until I attempted such a conversation with the subject of this sketch. Unlike the other "sketches" that have been presented to the readers by your favorite columnist, this is one young woman who has not made up her mind about her "career." She is still undecided. She says she is waiting for an inspiration. Believe it or not! Marquis Give Invitational Party The popular Marquis Club gave an invitational affair at 1645 New Jersey Avenue, last Monday evening for a group of their friends and acquaintances. In spite of the hotness of the night every one present tripped to the strains of Victrola renditions of the popular favorites, Duke Ellington, Cab Calloway, Louis Armstrong, et al. Aside from the dancing, a program of entertainment was presented for the invited guests, which included various impersonations of popular radio and stage stars. Some of these acts were as follows: Bing Crosby imitation—Elmer Spencer. Elmer gave a wonderful impersonation of Bing singing "Street of Dreams." Russ Columbo imitation—Williams sang "A Ghost of a Chance With You" in a pleasing baritone. Second Bing Crosby imitation—Lonnie Brown. Brown, suffering markedly from stage fright, made an effective ending that indicated that his "voice is all there." Eddie Rector and Ralph Cooper—Richard Johnson and Henry Bostic were the "hits" of the night, and performed their execution of "taps" in a most professional way. Miss Dorothy Hawkins acted as mistress of ceremonies in a creditable manner. Incidentally Miss Hawkins was one of the "belles" at Francis Pool last Sunday and gave every one an eyeful in her "rubber suit" that did wonders to her shearly limbs. Some of the guests were: Misses Mattie Barnes, Dorothy Jackson, Julia Mae Robinson, Helen Glassee, Gertrude Robinson, Henrietta Mitchell, Bernice Ware, Mary Henderson, Elizabeth Hartgrove, Mary Montague, Dorothy Johnson, Helen Carter, Catherine Bell, and Sue Nelson. Messrs. Walter Bailey, William Carey, Thomas Moore, Roger Johnson, Walter W. Webb, Milton Wood, John Clark, Joseph Sewell, John Highsmith, and Alvin ((Whattaman) Webb. Officers of the club are: Rufus Briggs, president; John Ross, secretary; Richard Johnson, treasurer. Two-year-old Marion Dommings, of 652 Orlean Street, Nerheast, received a cut over the left eye when she fell at her home; Tuesday.

The ‘Tribune last. Week that. a ‘People's: Drug Store on Fourteenth Street neay U Street had refused to serve a woman who protested to the man- ager and was later served at the fountain, Clerk Refused ‘The woman, who is well known in Washington fraternal circles, stated that she asked a clerk in the Fourteenth Street. store for an order of ice cream. The clerk told her she would have to eat it on the outside, as Negroes weren't, served fat the ‘counter, She protested to the manager, a Mr, Schmidt, whe ordered the clerk to serve her. Later Mr. Schmidt told a Tri- bune reporter that his store serves all races and does not discriminate ‘as to color. Ninety per cent of the patronage at this store is colored. Manager Gets Huff A visit to another store owned by the same company at Seventh and M Streets disclosed that colored people will be served at the coun: ter if they insist, but’ every at- tempt is made to discourage them from taking their drinks at the fountain, ‘When the manager of this store was asked whether ‘colored were served at the counter, he refused to answer and referred the reporter to the general offices of the com- pany. However, the reporter ‘walked to the fountain and ordered ‘a drink, The clerk prepared it in /a paper cup and placed a top over ‘the top. The reporter removed the ‘top and drank at, the fountain. No objection was raised by the clerk or manager, but both seemed dis- pleased when they saw the report- ‘er drinking at the fountain.

Wright, on October +16, 1889. On December 8, 1889, = call was issued by Mount Olive Lodge, No. 1388, to consider the building of a hall, The maciae spirit of this call was Mr. Wright, who was then the leading member of Mount Olive Lodge and continued to be unt his death. The first call was not very well attended, and an adjournment was had until December 30, 1880, at which conference 19 of the 24 lodgen were present hy representa tives, who interchanged ideas, and on March 25, 1890, the Association was duly incorporated under. the laws of the District of Columbia. In July of the same year. the ground on which the original build- ing stood at 1606 M Street, North- ‘west, was purchased at a! cost. of $9,650. On May 17, 1802, excava- tion for the new building was; he- gun and, the cornerstone of the sanie was laid July 4, 1892. In due course it reached completion, and on January 19, 1898, the same! wax dedicated by ‘the membership. of the Order. The dedicatory, address ‘was made by its founder and presi- dent, Thomas H. Wright. In’ later years several small houses to the west of the original building were purehased’ by the Hall Association and held as an investment. This additional outlay cost $11,500. The old building was used for lodge and public purposex until the entire holdings were sold by. the Association’ to the National Geographic Society on April 8, 1930. ‘This venture proved very ‘advantageous to the Order in’ that the selling price netted’ the: same the sum. of $206,000. With this tidy sum in hand every safeguard was taken to invest it judiciously in a new home which is now located ‘at the Southeast corner. of Ninth and T Streets, Northwest. During. the ‘entire 43. years) and four months of tie existence of thix association, it’ has had’ only, three presidents, namely, Thomas H. Wright, Lawrence Clark, both deceased, and Joseph Manning, its present head. During the past year or more Mr, Manning's health has been such that the con- duct of the office has been in the hands of the vice president, Past District Grand Master William 1.

Mr. Wilbanks Calls Down Flippant Preache: TEN. REV. HENRY IS FORCED TOLENE CHURCH PUL A near riot was narrowly avert- ed ‘at ‘the ‘Tenth Street Baptist Chruch last Sunday when the Rev. » Alexander Willbanks, pastor of the church, asked the Rey. Nathaniel G. Henry, evangelist, and one of the well ‘kriown Henry Brothers, out. of the<pulpit. The meeting broke up in_con- fusion when’ the Rey. Mr, Will- banks, who was seated in the con- gregation, arose from his seat and denounced the young and dapper minister before a crowded house. The Rey, Mr. Henry was escorted from the pulpit and church by his father, the Rey, John I. Henty, while the crowd milled about the evangelist, Hell Full of Preachers ‘The Rev. Mr. Willbanks told a Tribune reportgr-that he had just returned ftom a trip to New York and the service of the evangelist was secured in his absence. “T came into the church Sunday night and found a seat in the. ait- dience,” said the Rev, Mr. Will- banks, “During the sermon the Rev, Mr, Henry began to lambast the entire ministry and called all of them liars. He also said that hell would be so full of ministers that’ there would not be room enough for all of them, I arose in my zent and asked the minister to stop telling lies, and he left the pulpit with his father.” Meeting Ended ‘The stopping of the sermon ‘created considerable confusion and ended the meeting. The Rev. Mr. Willbanks said that he objected to the man’s attempt to belittle the clergy and as he left the church the Rey, Mr, Willbanks said that the evangelist called him a vile name and threatened to punch his nose if he got the opportunity. The Rey. Nathaniel Henry came into prominence several weeks ago when The Tribune published an ex- clusive ‘story of the attempted poisoning of the evangelist by an allegedly strange woman who gave ‘the minister a sandwich. The Rev. Mr, Henry: became violently ill and at ‘one time doctors thought the supposed poison dose would be fatal, However, he recovered and continued his evangelistic career. It could not be learned this week where the evangelist would preach, but his brothers, John L., William L., and O. D., are holding services at Jerusalem Baptist.

CHARLES HOUSTON NOT TO DEFEND PAGE JUPITER Denies Newspaper Reports That he is to Represent Ax Slayer Attorney Charles H. Houston, vice dean of the Howard University School of Law, in a statement The Tribune, denied newspaper reports that he represented Page Jupiter, who is in a Baltimore jail charged with the ax-slaying of a white farm woman at LaPlata, Md., several weeks ago. Attorney Houston visited the man last week in Baltimore, but denied that he would defend Jupiter. "I do not represent Jupiter," said the attorney, "and when Lovett (Attorney E. P. Lovett) and I saw him July 13, we told him we were there as attorneys appointed by his sister, Mrs. Mattie Butler, to interview him, but that we did not know whether we would be in the case. We have advised Mrs. Butler we would not be in the case. So far as I know Jupiter has no lawer." Bernard Ades, International Labor Defense attorney, of Baltimore, became interested in the case shortly after the killing. Ades sought a writ of habea corpus in an attempt to see Jupiter with a Baltimore newspaper reporter. Following a hearing on the writ it was denied. A mob threatened Jupiter following his arrest at La Plata, but the group of whites were frustrated when the man was spirited to another jail at Upper Marlboro, and later taken to Baltimore.

URGES ACTION ON CODES Sends Circular Letters to Religious, Civic and Fraternal Bodies NEW YORK.—Declaring that the Negros' present economic status is the most critical within recent years and that the industrial codes for various industries now being passed upon by the Government may establish for the next decade or longer the standards of employment, hours of labor and scales of wages, the N.A.A.C.P. today issued a strong appeal to organizations and individuals to send vigorous demands to Washington for full recognition of the Negro. "The Negro, like everyone else, will get only that which he demands." the association's statement reads. It urged that Washington be flooded with telegrams and petitions in a resolute nation-wide and unremitting insistence that the Negro be given his full share of jobs and relief. It was urged that telegrams be sent to President Roosevelt and to General Hugh S. Johnson of the National Recovery Act urging that each industrial code passed upon be carefully scrutinized and clauses included in each code prohibiting discrimination on account of race, creed or color in the fulfillment of the code. Telegrams are also to be sent to President Roosevelt and to Secretary of the Interior Harold L. Ickes, who is the administrator of public works for which Congress recently appropriated $3,300,000, asking that all possible steps be taken to see that the Negro, receives his full and proportionate share of jobs under the public works act. Negroes on Committees A third request to be made of President Roosevelt is that intelligent and qualified Negroes be appointed to various administrative boards to insure that there shall be no discrimination against Negro workers. The N.A.A.C.P.'s letter urging united action was sent to church organizations, such as the National Baptist Convention, Inc., the National Baptist Convention, Unincorporated, all bishops of the A.M.E., A.M.E. Zion and M.E. Churches, to the heads of fraternal organizations, including the Elks, Masons, Knights of Pythias, Alpha Phi Alpha, Kappa Alpha Psi Omega Psi Phi, Phi Beta Sigma Alpha Kappa Alpha, Delta Sigma Theta, and Zeta Phi Beta sororities; to the presidents of the National Association of Colored Women, National Bar Association, National Negro Business League, National Medical Association; to the National Urban League, Negro Industrial League, Y.M.C.A., Y.W.C.A., editors of the Negro press; and to all branches of the N.A.A.C.P. The association asks that civic bodies and other organizations, as well as individuals, both white and colored, join in this exceedingly important movement. Princess Anne Academy Becomes Eastern Branch of Md. University Princess Anne Academy, at Princess Anne on the lower Eastern Shore of Maryland, has been taken over by the State and will be operated as the Eastern Branch of the University of Maryland, offering a agricultural, mechanical and technical courses with liberal educational features. The high school department has been discontinued and the institution will offer courses of a junior college grade. The academy has been conducted as a branch of Morgan College, Baltimore, which institution is under the control of the Methodist Episcopal Church, but receives some help from the State. Dr. T. H. Kiah will be continued as principal of the new institution. President J. O. Spencer, of Morgan College accompanied by President Pearson, Deans Cotterman and Mount, Professors Mettgar and Carpenter, and Messrs. Holtzapfel and Pollack, all of the University of Maryland, visited the school this week. Plans for opening the school as a Land Grant school in September, courses of study, budget and other important business kept these educators busy for several days. Heat Overcomes Baby and Two D.C.

DRUNKEN DRIVER CRASHES THREE PARKED AUTOS James Marvin Riddles, white, of Greensboro, N.C., was sentenced to 30 days in jail by Judge Gus A. Schultit in the Police Court, Tuesday following a charge of reckless driving. Riddles, who was operating a car owned by F. L. Lavender, white of Atlanta, Ga., collided with three parked cars, Saturday, while driving on the wrong side of Indiana Avenue. One of the cars struck and damaged belonged to Armond W. Scott, local member of the bar. The other machine was owned by Frank A. Cunningham, white, clerk of the District Supreme Court. The owner of the third machine could not be learned. $100 Damage Attorney Scott's car, a LaSalle sedan, was damaged to the extent of $100. After the collision Riddles is alleged to have attempted to flee, but was overtaken and arrested by officers attached to No. 1 Precinct station. Attorney Scott called at the precinct station and was told by the captain in charge that Riddles was in no condition to be talked to. Later Riddles was seen by Cunningham and an attorney representing the American Automobile Association, and both stated that the prisoner seemed to be in a stunner. Driver Drunk It was discovered that Riddles did not have a permit to drive a car, and several witnesses testified that he was drunk at the time of the collision. However, it was pointed out that only a reckless driving charge was placed against him by the officers. Owners of the damaged cars had planned to attach the machine driven by Riddles, but officers permitted someone to remove it from the station during Saturday night. Industrial National Bank's Subscription Drive Moving Forward With large subscriptions by local business and religious institutions, the subscription campaign to raise a quarter million dollars for the proposed Industrial National Bank gained renewed impetus, last week. Of the total amount sought $200,000 is capital and $50,000 for surplus. J. W. Lewis, campaign director, stated this week that the reorganization committee has every reason to believe that the campaign will be successful. He also stated that other business concerns in the U Street section have indicated a willingness ti co-operate in putting the project over. Under the conservation plan the Industrial Savings Bank has the largest accounts of any of the local institutions operating under the conservator plan. The committee is to make a report to Conservator W. H. C. Brown at a later day. He in turn will report to the Treasury Department on the status of the bank Members of the committee are Jesse Mitchell, Walter L. Carter Dr. John R. Hawkins and J. W. Lewis. Meetings are held every Wednesday night at the bank. Eleventh and U Streets, Northwest. Fifteen Children Join Wesley's Sunday School An enthusiastic audience received the Rev. L. P.

Eichenberger, cashier; R. P. Braddicks, assistant vice president and manager of the original banking house at 2824 Eighth Avenue, corner of 150th Street; C. C. Huitt, president; A. H. Thien, vice president. An American of African descent, Mr. Braddicks was born April 8, 1882, in New York City on the site now occupied by R. H. Macy, Inc. His formal school training covered only five years at Public School No. 26, located on West 30th Street, the boy having left school at the age of thirteen years to go to work. Young Braddicks was employed by the State Bank in New York City, which merged with the Manufacturers Trust Company October 5, 1905, as a messenger, subsequently serving in most of the departments and eventually becoming assistant manager of the real estate department. He later became the business representative, operating from their Fifth Avenu branch. 61 Lorton "Bad Boys" Are Negro Workers Win Sent to Atlanta Prison Pay Raise Strike Sixty-one convicts, 30 whites, 30 colored and one Chinese, left Lorton Reformatory last week for Atlanta. This group was the so-called ring leaders in the recent outbreak at the District prison. Unlike Lorton the penitentiary at Atlanta is enclosed by a high brick wall and the men will live in cells. The District reformatory was more like a camp where the men were given many privileges and spent much of their time out of doors and engaged in sport activities. This motley group classed as the "bad boys" of Lorton and were said to have instigated the riots which resulted in the dismissal of Superintendent A. C. Tawse. Civil Service Offers Messenger Positions The Civil Service Commission announced this week that applications for assistant and junior messengers in the departmental service here will be accepted until August 8. The entrance salary for assistant messenger is $1,080 a year, and for junior messenger, $600 a year, less the economy act's reduction. Since the District of Columbia, the States of Maryland, Virginia, Iowa, New Hampshire and Vermont have already received appointments in excess of their quotas, their residents will not be admitted to the examination unless they submit documentary proof that they are entitled to military preference. Capitol View News On Tuesday evening, Mr. and Mrs. Rhoma Holsall, of 4915 Blaine Street, Northeast, entertained their niece, little Miss Hazel Lamont Brownrigg, on her sixth birthday.

Labor Racketeer Sentenced to Eight Months on Road ALEXANDRIA—Archie Silson, who claims Philadelphia as his home, was sentenced to eight months on the state road force following his conviction, Tuesday, on a charge of labor racketeering. Judge W. S. Snow passed the sentence after Augustine Beander and Oliver Jackson had complained that the man had tried to induce them to part with $10 each in order to buy uniforms for jobs as truck helpers. Silson failed to get the money. JACKSONVILLE, Fla.—(LD) —How a strike of Negro pea shellers was won through the organization activities of a "Daily Worker." International Labor Defense newspaper, correspondent was revealed in a letter received in New York. Negro workers hired to shell beans and peas were getting three cents a quart for 16 to 17 hours of work a day. In this backbreaking work at long hours the workers eke out a dollar a day. The employers declared a cut in the rate and refused to pay more than 2½ cents a quart. Instead of docilely accepting the cut as the employers expected, the workers, aroused to action, by the correspondent, decided to strike for five cents a quart. Threats of terror, whipping and lynching did not budge them. After four hours the bosses yielded and agreed to pay four cents a quart which the workers accepted. Efforts are now being made to organize the workers into the Agricultural Workers Industrial Union. In friendship as in business, unless there is a give and take in equal measure on both sides, the basis is unsound.

SUPREME COURT ASKED TO REVIEW CIRCLE SLAYING Defense Attorneys Begin Fight to Save Youths from Chair The United States Supreme Court was petitioned Tuesday in a writ of certiorari and brief asking the highest court of the country not to affirm the judgment of the District Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals in the decision of the two lower courts in sentencing the three Logan Circle youths to death in connection with the slaying of Park Policeman Milo J Kennedy, last August. The petition was filed by Attorneys John H. Wilson and J. Flipper Derricotte, who represent the condemned youths, Joseph James Jackson, Irvin Murray, and Ralph Holmes. It is set out that nine youths were jointly indicted for murder of the policeman, six went to trial, and three were dismissed on a directed verdict, and a like number convicted. Claim Third Degree It is also claimed that three others are fugitives from justice. The three convicted testified that confessions were forced by third degree methods administered by police. The three now in prison were convicted by the District Supreme Court and the decision of that court was upheld by the Court of Appalas. Defense attorneys are making a fight to have the case reviewed by the U. S. Supreme Court. The youths are sentenced to die next month. The Phillipines set a record last year when 15,281 visitors landed there, compared with 12,747 in 1927.

Lewis's nearest rival Jimmie Williams, amateur champion of the District, was 14 strokes back. The winner's score for the tournament trek was 241. When Lewis journeyed the initial 18 holes in 64 to become medalist, competitors and spectators alike held little alarm. It was deemed highly improbable that the youngster, in his first attempt at tournament play, would be able to maintain the dizzy pace. But instead of weakening, the ultimate winner grew stronger. His card of 59 for the second time around attracted much attention, but still there were those who held out that the youthful pace-setter would soon falter. Exhibiting a brilliant iron play, followed consistently by deadly putting, Lewis came in off his third trip with a round of 60. By this time far out in front, the young medalist secured the support of the crowd. Even among those who sort to win the prize for which he was fighting, Lewis found an encouraging word. With this sportsmanly rooting came confidence, and with the confidence came an even greater degree of accuracy. The record-breaking 56 was the result. Williams, runner-up, went into the final round trailing Reuben Brooks, the ultimate third place winner by one stroke. The two waged a sensational battle, one which was overshadowed only by the remarkable play of the champion. It was on the seventy-second green that the amateur champion emerged the victor by a one-stroke margin. The hard, dry course, with its lightning-fast greens made a difficult game even more hazardous the large group of competitors which took part in the play. Richard Harris, who started out in seventh place, won out over A.thur White and George Thomas in the second flight. The winner's card totaled a 279. Huntsville Trips Anacostia Athletics 5-4 and 6-1 The Anacostie A. C., stellar southeast Washington aggregation went down to double defeat at the hands of the strong and much improved Huntsville A. C., on the latter's home grounds, at Pomphret, Md., last Sunday afternoon. The scores of the well played games were 5-4 and 5-1. Robinson and Bob Carter handled the hurling end for the winners and exceptional grounds, giving 3 hits and 4 hits respectively. Bill Monroe, former Howard University and Black Sox Star was best at bat, garnering 4 hits out of 7 trips plateward for the two games. Midnight Swim and Dance Held at Francis Pool A midnight swim and dance under the auspices of the Junior Civic League was held at the Francis Swimming Pool Saturday. The object of the be it was to ail in the project, sponsored by the group, of establishing in the Northwest section of the city a community house similar to the ones in the Southeast and Southwest. Miss Evelyn Davis, of Forrestville, Md., was awarded the prize offered to the owner and wearer of the most attractive or unusual bathing costume. The judging was done by the assembled spectators after the fashion of the talent night shows in the theatres. Ye Ole Cock Crows (1-2-3 Race)—128, 312, 436, 511 and 235.

In an interview with the Tribune, Professor Frank Coleman chairman of the Board of Athletic Control, at Howard University, declared that Lincoln University athletic officials had secured the Atlantic City Auditorium for the popular holiday affair. The game will be played indoors and at night. A seating capacity of 20,000 and a modern system of lightning are spectacular features of the newly erected building. Sam's Scripts Friends, the Tribune is promising big things for the coming fall in the way of sports reporting. With Garland Mackey, Arthur Carter and yours truly covering the field, lovers of competitive athletics will be favored by a full and tasty dish at all times. Mackey and Carter are thoroughly acquainted with the local sport situation as readers "this page well know, and as for yours truly, well when his efforts are bad, lots of folks are good enough to overlook them—my pals. * * * * Freedmen's Hospital officials, who at one time feared for the rapid recovery of Zig Johnson, prominent local independent and semi-p basketball player, discharged him from the institution late last week. Johnson substained serious injuries as the result of an attack on him recently. Elsewhere on these pages will be found an article bearing on the proposed new golf course for Negroes, the construction of which is in the embryonic stage. At this time and place the writer wishes to call attention to the fact that the jimcrow tennis courts at the Monument Grounds are constantly without users. If this loss of interest in tennis was caused by the d'scriminatory policy well and good—even though it came extremely late. If not, we are jeopardizing our right to the use of even these two courts. A space is provided on the Tribun, baseball score sheet form to show the time the game was supposed to start, and another to show the time the game was actually started. Invariably these sheets come into the office with the actual starting time stated as from 50 minutes to one hour and 15 minutes later than the time set for the supposed beginning. And yet there is always a sorce of wonder among our independent athletes as to the reason why so many Negroes will spend their dollars to see a white professional game rather than go down to "the lot" and see one for nothing. I doubt very seriously that any of my readers will contradict me when I place the name of the late Henry Lewis Bailey at the top of my list of marathon bicycle riders. Dr. Bailey, who died last week, pedaled from early boyhood until he was well past 60. His figure, astride his two-wheeled means of transportation, was a familiar sight to people who happened along the path which lay between his home and the Armstrong Technical High School, where he taught up to the time of his death. Just let everybody sit still and wait. This department is going to call the bluff of every baseball team in or about the District which continues to lay claim to the championship of this section. So numerous and varied have been the claimants of the mythical title that it appears every Tiger, Bearcat, Giant or Sox outfit operating around these parts is the self styled best. Just who is and who aint will be determined before the 1933 season draws to a close. Saw Ted Thompson, 1926 and 1928 national champion, ambling through U Street, with a couple of tennis racquets under his arm, early this week. GODFREY WINS AS WRESTLER SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (ANP) —George Godfrey, sometimes sometimes wrestler, took on Clifford Jones of New York in a wrestling match here Wednesday night and pinned him to the mat in 11 minutes with an inside crotch and body press. HUNTSVILLE'S WIN STREAK BROKEN BY HILLSDALES Crack Maryland Nine, Title Claimants, Drop Two to "Prides of Le Droit" By FLASH ROBESON The Hillsdale Collegians journeyed to Pomfrey, Md., Sunday, and handed the Huntsville Club a dual beating by the scores, 6-4 and 5-4. The losers claim the championship of Southern Maryland. Gil (Spike) Bland toed the slab for the 'Dales, and after the first inning, when the Marylanders scored four runs on a base on balls, an error, a single, and a double, he pitched gilt-edge ball and was complete master of the situation. Dick Temple led the Collegians's offense, getting a double and two singles out of five trips to the plate, and stealing three bases. Bland won his own game when he doubled to deep left field and then scored on Temples's sharp single to center in the seventh inning. Jelly Jackson, Nixon and Crump shone in the field for the Marylanders, while Randolph led with the stick. In the night cap, Robert Carter, a fine southnaw, opposed Smoke Levi, the 'Dales's ace, and the complete array of portside batters changed to the right side, and treated him rather roughly. The playing of the entire 'Dale infield was remarkable. The feature play was furnished in the ninth immin, when with one out and the tying run on second, Reds Dabney, former Virginia State state, raced far back and to his left to snag a hard-hit ball from the bat of the slugging Johnny Randolph, Huntsville catcher. When Wes Thomas, pinch hitting, rolled out Turner to Temple, the game was over and the Marylanders had lost their first double-header of the season. Bartoe Black caught sensational ball in both games, and hit up to his old standard. The hitting of Jelly Jackson and the fielding of Crump on first base featured the play of the Marylanders.

Ball Player Hurts Hip Trying to Slide Home The diversions of baseball and tennis proved somewhat injurious to two participants of the sports, Saturday, sending them to the hospital for treatment of slight wounds. Trying to slide into the home plate and chalk up another score during a baseball game on the Howard playground, Albert S. Mickens, Jr. 22, of 3025 Fifteenth Street, Northwest, received severe friction burns of the left thigh. James White, 30, of 2621 Georgia Avenue, Northwest, received a swollen eye when a rebounding tennis ball struck him in the optic. Elk Nine Outclassed in Game With 'Dales The Morning Star Lodge baseball team found itself no match for the hard hitting Hillsdale A.C., in a practice game at the Monument Grounds Diamond Eight, last Saturday afternoon. Curley Williams, 18-year-old recruit pitcher, made quite an impression with his work on the mound for the 'Dales. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. THURSDAY. JULY 27, 1933 Looking 'em Over by SAM LACY With the Tribune Speculation is rife, hereabouts, and perhaps the country over, as to the kind of reception that will be extended Ralph Metcalfe, the colored sprint star of Marquette University, who is touring European countries with six other track and field luminaries from the states, on his arrival in Germany. The troupe is slated to appear in Berlin, August 5 and 6 to match times, distances and heights in the way of running, tossing and jumping with the best the Fatherland has to offer. Animosity toward certain racial groups has been widely exploited as one of the principal features of the new Nazi regime. Led by Adolph Hitler this German fascism goes its Italian neighbor-group one better in its persecution of certain races and creeds. The Nazi hatred for the Jew has been highly publicized, but the feeling against the black man has not received the same amount of world-wide attention, due largely to the scarcity of Negroes in Germany. There are, or were, 600,000 Jews in the Deutschland as compared to a mere handful of colored folk. It is therefore obvious that the persecution of Jews is considered—at least for the sake of newspaper reports—the greater evil. The following excerpt from an editorial in the Boston Post of March twenty-third gives a straightforward American view of the Hitler policies: "The arrogance and racial bigotry of the Hitler government in Germany is astounding. Its encouragement of physical assaults on the Jewish population, the exile of brilliant and prominent professional men has resulted in the contempt of the world. No such gang of ruffians can hope to build up a nation." Still another paper, the Detroit Free Press of the same date, scoffs at the lack of intelligence displayed by Nazi leaders in their anti-Jewish campaign. It reads in part: "From the start, hostility toward the Jews was one of the preachments of the Nazi movement in Germany and constituted one of its most unpleasant aspects. Persecution of any people because they happen to be members of a certain race is unsportsmanlike, and is offensive to modern ideas of fair play and decency. It is stupid." Yet no mention has been made of the Negro in Germany. Authentic statements are to the effect that colored persons have been compelled to leave Germany, that contracts of entertainers calling for appearance in Berlin, Hamburg and other large cities have been cancelled on order of Nazi officials. It is a well established fact that German antagonism against the black man was provoked by circumstances in the war. Prior to the inception of the dark French troops and the American Expeditionary Force with its Negro contingents, the Kaiser had things pretty much his own way during the fighting of late 1916 and early 1917. Germany has always felt that the turn of the tide toward allied victory was incident to the arrival of these black men. On top is this, the army of occupation which remained on German soil after the armistice was signed was composed largely of the black Senegalese and Algerian forces of France. This served to retard the closing of the open wound. When Brigadier General Charles Sherrill, representing the United States, asked the International Olympic Committee at its meeting in Vienna in early June, if the 1936 Olympic Games, scheduled for Berlin, would be thrown open to Jewish performers, the following answer was given: "The Olympic Committee feels that no amateur should be barred from the games because of race, creed or color." Thus the committee went Gen. Sherrell one better by including "ecolor" as well as race and creed. But that pertained to the Olympics, and the reply was motivated by threats to move the games elsewhere if the ban was not lifted. Such action would rob Germany the greatest spectacle of modern international activities, together with its attendant publicity, and monetary gain. Will that same promise hold forth as the Fatherland prepares for the arrival of this team of six white, and one black man? Metcalfe and the troupe are booked to perform in Berlin, on Saturday and Sunday of next week. Whether he will be tendered the same sort of welcome his white teammates receive remains to be seen.

LeDroits and White Sox Split; DePriest Wins Overtime Game Tri-State League Leaders Drop Opener to Virginia Nine, but Win Nightcap; Rajahs Losers in 15 Inning Battle With DePriest The LeDroit Tigers' and White Sox of Halls Hill, Va., divided a twin bill, Sunday, on the latter's field by the scores of 7-6, and 13-6. The playing and batting of shepherd, the Virginia lads' third sacker, was the outstanding feature, while the play afield of T. Moore in shortstop, the pitching of Russell, and the batting of Morton and L. Lewis were above the average. Burrell Kenner's play afield, covering the hot corner for the Bengals, and the batting of Mace Jefferson, featured the Bengals's play in the opener. "Sticks" Mavoritte in right field who on several occasions robbed the hard hitters of the Rajahs of would-be hits. Barnes, who was relieved by Woods in the sixth, again returned to the mound in the ninth after his relief, allowed the Rajahs to score two runs, yielded an other tally, allowing the Rajah to deadlock the old ball game tightened up and had the Rajah at his mercy for the rest of the game. The torrid heat assisted the hard hitting of the entire Bengal tribe, and the gilt-edge pitching of Emkie Jeffries very much in the night cap. ***** The DePriest and Rajahs staged a fifteen-inning battle on the latters' diamond which the former won by the score 10-9. The heat affected both pitchers considerably. Stroman, of the Rajahs, was relieved by Vick in the sixth, and the relief twirler completely baffled the DePriest men until the fifteenth, when hits by Gardiner and Mavorite produced the winning run. Chick Thomas on first, O. Barber on second, and Carroll behind the bat were the high lights in the play of the Rajahs while Woods played a stellar game at third, assisted nobly by the work of McLindy at first and the sensational fielding of "Sticks" Mavorite in right field, who on several occasions robbed the hard hitters of the Rajahs of would-be hits. Barnes, who was relieved by Woods in the sixth, again returned to the mound in the ninth after his relief, allowed the Rajahs to score two runs, yielded another tally, allowing the Rajahs to deadlock the old ball game, tightened up and had the Rajahs at his mercy for the rest of the game.

VOICE PUBLISHING CO. 309-311 Fifth Avenue New York, N.Y. DATE IS SET FOR A.A.U. SWIM AT FRANCIS POOL August Twenty-sixth to Be Gala Day at Popular Municipal Plant By CHARLES R. DREW The sixth annual Water Carnival and A.A.U. Swimming Championships of the Francis Pools will be staged on August 26. During the past few years this meet has grown to be the only thing of its kind in the country, the place where all the local champions come to settle the question of real supremacy for the year. Around the sports have grown up the usual social sidelines and for the summer season it is the thing to attend if you want to see who's who. Each year more teams enter. They come from farther and farther away, and each year record after record falls as new stars rise to displace the old ones or force them to new heights to maintain their own. With the great team from the New York Y.M.C.A., as chief threat to the Francis team's unbroken five years of victories, the Harlem Children's Center group of outstanding young stars, both boys and girls, the Philadelphia Y.M.C.A., and their old rivals from Baltimore and Suburban Gardens all training their best already, this year's meet should eclipse all the others in record breaking performances. This writing is the swan song of the present manager, who returns on August 1, to Montreal to continue studies in surgery. His successor will be John F. Harris, a Howard graduate in physical education, and for five years a member of the staff at the pools. Assisting him will be James G. Tyson, giving as much time as his law practice allows, and Joseph L. Drew in the periods between his teaching. The staff will remain as it is at present. It is the hope of the outgoing manager that the public will give the new executive the same sort of co-operation in maintaining the standards of service, cleanliness and teaching that it has in the past. BATTLE - ROYAL ON ALEX. FIGHT CARD BATTLE - ROYAL ON ALEX. FIGHT CARD ALEXANDER, Va.—Four boxing matches and a battle-royal are on the card for the fight show listed for tonight (Thursday) at Baggett's Stadium, this city. The battle-royal, which will probably afford more fun for a larger portion of the crowd than any of the individual matches, is carded as the wind-up. The main bout will bring together the flashy Tommy Miles, claimant of the amateur lightweight championship of Virginia and Pennsylvania, and Eddie Cooper aspirant to the same title in the state of Maryland. Fast and furious action is promised by the promoters. Cyclone Williams, welterweight champion of Long Island, and Joe Baker, Baltimore welter, will face each other in the semi-final, and if predictions hold out these two lads will steal the show from the feature. Charlie Cross, of New York, and Baby Walcott, of Philadelphia. featherweights, and Joe Grady of Washington, and Charlie Anderson. Rockville entrant, will furnish the action in the other two pre- liminary battles. The first bout is scheduled to begin at prompt 8:30 p.m. NUMBERS 96 Hits in 18 Weeks SAMPLE SYSTEM FREE After months of intensive research work and check-up, we are proud to present the most efficient method of HITTING THE NUMBERS This method contains an automatic fool proof SAFETY VALVE, which protects you from being hit byREMEMBER, you can't HIT by guessing, you must get connected with some one on the inside. 36 HITS IN 158 DAYS After a 148 sms play (108 playing days) our SAFETY VALVE SYSTEM gave 14 straight HITS and 22 in combination.

New Star in Colored Fistic Firmament SAN FRANCISCO, (ANP)—When John Henry Lewis punched his way to a decision victory over Maxie Rosenbloom in a lightheavyweight contest here last Monday night, his success indicated that the West is preparing to send another battler east in the wake of Young Jack Thompson and Baby Joe Gans to win new fistic honors. Lewis, just a youngster, comes from Phoenix, Arizona. He showed plenty of class in taking Rosenbloom who has always held a sort of Indian sign on colored fighters. Rosenbloom was the only fighter near the late Tiger 'Flowers' weight who ever gave him trouble. Rosenbloom also set himself astride the upward path of Billy Jones, the Philadelphia mitt artist, when the latter was beginning to dream dreams and see visions. Cab Calloway Has a Hi-do-ho Nine Most orchestra leaders and their musicians play baseball only in the fertile minds of their press agents and in the columns of credulous radio editors, issuing mythical challenges to other teams which never are accepted. Cab calloway and his Cotton Club orchestra not only possess uniforms, gloves, baseballs, bats and other paraphernalia, but they actually use them. The team practices every afternoon and invariably plays a game on Sunday with a local nine in the various cities they visit on their current tour of the middle west. U. P.

Colonel Woodruff told the Tribune, early this week, that the work of filling in and leveling the territory selected for the location of the new links has been begun, later to make way for the more important work that is to follow. These other steps in the development of the ground will take place as fast as appropriations for carrying them out are forthcoming from Congress. Thus it appears that the patience of local lovers of golf will be rewarded despite the fact that nothing material has as yet happened. The new dierator in little more than a month has at least shown an inclination to progress in the interest of the District's colored golfing fraternity. Unlike Lieuteaux Colonel U. S. Grant, his predecessor, the Democratic appointee has heeded the six-year-old plea of Negro golfers for a suitable course on which to play, and has ordered the work begun. This is the first move of an encouraging nature that has come from the office in the Navy Department Building since the wrecking of the old Lincoln Memorial Course to make way for the construction of the Arlington Memorial Bridge. Prior to that time, colored golf players had been compelled to play on an inadequate links or not play at all. Since that time many Negroes have given up the game because of the complete hopelessness of getting any benefit out of the exercise afforded by the make-shift course which followed the bridge ground-breaking.

NUMBERS Directfrom Race Track And Stock and Bond Market 2-HITS WEEKLY-2 BY SPECIAL TELEGRAPH From A BONAFIDE HORSEMAN SPORT WORLD Trials and Anxieties of a Baseball Coach T_T By CATO W. ADAMS eee ing charge, The team when dis- cussed in terms of individual per- formance showed that the respec- tive players taken singly rated high. The infield with Tyler or Cooke on first, Garrison on second, and Henry in short, was a trio that when afield was as fast a doubleplay clicking machine as the combination of 1927 with Togo Bogan on first, Abie Andrews on second and Speed Johnson jn short, Friday Henderson on third was as good afield as Smooth Scott in 1927. Unlike 1927 clickers, all strong and reliable at bat, half of the 1932 infleld could be regarded but lightly by most pitchers. How many hits did Tyler make—and Cooke, although he got going well at bat during the fag end of the 1938 campaign? Garrison often failed to capitalize his lack of height (which was made to order, for being granted bases on balls) by swinging at high pitches instead of waiting. This over-anxiousness very often proved costly. Friday Henderson could come through in pinches but that tem- peramental strain that ran through his system made you flinch aplenty ‘when he was on the bases. Again, you never knew when he was try- ing. But Eddie Henry stood out as the ever reliable. Given a Good Start The 1932 outfield with Wilson in right, Gray in center and Goodloe or Turpin in left would have, at first, discouraged no coach. At the beginning of the campaign they were hitting, fielding, throwing and running bases intelligently. But in mid-season Wilson was incapaci- tated by an accident, Gray sudden- ly went blooie in all departments, and Turpin developed nerves, leav- ing only Goodloe to carry on. ‘The pitching staff with Hank Williams, Tim Paulin, No Hit Cary and Onion Mason, was the envy of other teams. Only the catching department was streaky. Hager, the best prospect, had left veh leaving the late hard-working, hon- est-to-goodness but eggshell. arm, Cherry Tree Washington, and (al- though he is very good now) the then in-and-ovter Josebez Lee, However, it was the best high school aggregation in the city in 1982, although it lost the only playing baseball championship charged to Armstrong during my eleven seasons of high school coaching, The 1927 Team That hustling 1927 gang would remind one of a small edition of the walloping lineup presented by the New York Yankees. Here they are: Red Dabney, left, field—and one of the greatest of all high school lead-offs; Abie Andrews, second base,/a real inside offensive player; Jimmie Davis, right field, always there in a pinch; Togo Bo- gan, first base, and watta clean up; Rip’ Perry, center field, and that baby could clout; Ernie Johnson, shortstop, and you didn’t have to worry about him; Smith Scott, third base, he only looked bad once and that was when Tim Paulin, pitching for Shaw, stole one down the alley for a third strike and third out, leaving the tying run on third; Clyde Ribinson was some catcher who got his share of hits; and Lankie Lynn, Jakie Levi and Hump Campbell doing the pitch- ing. Lonnie Graham alternated occasionally with Perry in center, and all these outfielders could distance—make no mistake about that. May I disgress long enough to say in the way of explanation that some may inquire about the first team that I handled—in 1923. With fairness to my predecessor, G, H. Murray, I wish to say that a super-nucleus was turned over to me in the personnel of Sam (I can play anywhere for you) Lacy: Soup Turner, shortstop; Dick Tem- ple, third base; Van Dyke Walker, right field: Doo Dad Dorsey, catch- er} and Hank Jones, Sugar Ham- mond, and Oil McDonald pitchers. Lacy, though a pitcher, covered center most of thé time, and the hitting of Jones and Hammond al- lowed them almost regular assign- ments in the outfield ep not pitching. I had only to find Ward who was a good hitter and smooth outfielder, Turkey Breast Brown for second and Foots Allen for: first. The last two were safe field- ors but weak hitters. Hank Jones _ I praise my stars for having had the honor of working with these fellows, but, feel that, with the ex- ception of one, the irst evan had artived at their peak when they were graciously dropped in my lap. Hank Jones is that exception. ‘When I was coaching the Ran- dall-Cardozo _ elementary, heavy- weight team, Hank was the second baseman. * When the regular pitch- er was suspended, Hank was draft- ‘ed for box duty and. it wah. tater ae ee . -( 4 ne Se ee Et, CATO W.

Tt has been very gratifying to me to meet some exeperformers who remember certain of tite occasions cited.

It looked like extra innings with two strikes and no balls on the late Nappy Hender- fon, Already Lacy. was’ pleading to be allowed to get in there and not let ’em see it when Tech took the field again. Russell still throw- ing the duster (a ball close to the batter) soon was in a 3 and + dil- emma again. The next delivery nearly beaned Nappy who ducked. His bat accidentally got in the wake, of the ball and a dumpy hit over the first baseman’s head re- sulted. Dorsey who had started with the wind up, scored the win- ning run and started a streak which lasted throughout the sea- son. Sane. oe In a game between Duntar and Armstrong May 23, 1928, in the Howard Stadium, there were two out in Dunhar’s second with Doug- lass and Crichlow on bases, Right- fielder Daniel’ sent one of Elton King’s pitches on a line between left and center. “Dabiney and Perry started back at the crack cf the bat running diakonally toward each other &s the ball soared on and was ticketed home run.

And the poor girls, what can they 0? Well, it seems tome that we folks who sit out front, and watch them ’go through their dance rou- tines, execute intricate steps, un- tangle the most amazing of for- mation angles with ease, ought to feel a little more interested in them.

Fidelity. sound equipment, which represents a, radial \im- Provement over, allgprevious ‘appa- ratus of its type is similar to’ that recenily installed in the two new super-theatres at Rockefeller Cen- tre in New York City—the RKO- Roxy, and the world’s largest and most__modernly “equipped | show. house—the Radio City Music Hall. The Raphael ‘Theatre, because of the prompt action of its manage- ment, will enjoy the. distinction of being the first. showhouse in. the city of Washingtdn to present this amazing develgpment of the mo- tion picture art ‘to its patrons. Mr. Bernheimer, when _ inter- viewed. stated he considers the in- stallation of the-mew High Fidelity scund system to be the biggest an- nouncement his con.rany has made since. the introduction of’ the talkies. “We have always sought the best in equipment for our patrons,” he continued, “and up until about two weeks ago We were under. the impression that we had the best the market had to offer. “At that time, however, our at- tention was called to the far great +. superiority of the High Fidelity system and immedia‘ely. several members of our firm made a flying trip to New York to hear an in- vestigate the features of the new type of equipment, We were a- mazed at what we heard. In our long experience in the theatre business we had never had the op- portunity to listen to sound so natural and so perfect as this. “For years engineers have -been striving to obtain true reproduc- tion of the human yoice and of the various musical instruments and background noises, but until. the recent discovery of the great RCA Victor. laboratories ill _ these sourds have been mechanical in tone and lackit.z in character, “In the older types of equipment it was difficult to distinguish the characters that lend quality: and personality to the different yoices and sounds, but. with the introdue- tion of the High Fidelity system all this is corrected. The human voice as reproduced by the new equipment is heard exactly as it is recorded jn the -studios in 2olly- wood—the personality of the actor is brought directly'tothe audience just as though he were appearing in person, “Music, instead of having 1 harsh, metallic tone as in’ the past, now can be: heard in all: natural: ness and beauty. The various in. struments can now be. distinguish. ed as-to quality. and’ tinibre’ ‘and variction from a mere’ whisper tc the crash of cymbals and the blare of the brass sections are reproduc- ed without a trace of distortion. “Background noises,” Betnheim- er Went on. “so, imvortant to the complete enjoyment of a motion picture can now be heard with ease. Sounds never before repro- duced because of the failings of older types of eouipment now ap- pear in the theatre eaactly as the michrophone picks them up in the studio, “High Fidelity is truly @ revela- tion to the picture fan and I feel sure that the patrons of the Rapheal Theatre will be most agreeably surprised upon hearing it when the installation is com- pleted, Our company is sincerely proud of the fact that we will have the pleasure of heing the first to present it. to the treatre-goers of Veashington in connection with our policy of first-run pictur->, “There is one point that’ we want to make clear.” emphasized Mr, Bernheimer, "the new High Fidelity system is not to be con- fused with other so-called equip. ments announced to the public re. cently which claim to reproduce a wider range of frequencies, Inves- tigation of these install-tions has shown us that no complete change of equipment has been made—in- stead, certain nsinor changes have been made in th> older type sets with the addition of a few pieces of apparatus whick are supposed to'produce an’ entirely new effect. “The:xesult is somewhat’ similat to the installation: of 1 new. carbu- relor on am old Model Pord,— the: gas mileage may be increased 28 te ees WE GES chd noe ae nae THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE; THURSDAY, JULY 27, 1933 Popular Stars on Howard Screen —a lc ttt a ao ; | a oe a if b Wonae ie . 2 ‘ot s \ — | ce ee 78 Ae ¢ es 5 a aes eos sd re . 8 lic faa oe WILLIAM POWELLYAND ANN HARDING, who co-stat in’ “Double Harnéss, fs ,cohcetned,” it~ involves /a, com- plete ‘change of the projection. ap- paratis. “The old type equipment will, Be entirely. removed: and ‘the new one Wil!) be’ installed in’ its place. i This, ‘of course, “necessitates a large: ‘expenditure’ of money but We ate convinced- that in- order’ to give our patrons:absolutely. the fin- est sound that can be obtained to- day a ‘mere patching-up job: will not_ suffice. . : “Engineers: from the RCA Vic- tor plant in Camden,.N.J. have. ar- rived.'and the work of ripping. out the old ‘equipment and: installing the new one vis’ wow: under way.

The older types of reproducing appayatus were limited in response to from about 100 to 6,000 eycles, “With the introduction of the greater frequency range it is pos- sible to secure the natural tone which was lacking in the past. Vast improvement has also been made in the mechanism which governs the speed of the film through the projector. It is es- sential ‘for p®rfect “reproduction that this speed: shall never vary and in the past one of the greatest weaknesses of sound equipment lay in the fact that the film speed control Was not efficient, “With the new system, however, the yariation jn speed has heen re- duced to such a small percentage that. it is practically negligible.

BEATS THEN TIES WITH GEORGETOWN West-end Team Surprised by Strength of Jimmy Carroll's Outfit Jimmy Carroll's Aztec A.C. tossed a bombshell into the camp of the Georgetown Athletics, whose baseball team has been cutting quite a caper on local sandlots during the current season, on the Green Valley, Va., diamond, last Sunday afternoon. The former after coping the opening game of the double-header, 6-5, took advantage of Georgetown miscues to hang on to a 6-6 tie in the night-cap. Bus Frazer, ace of the Westenders' mound staff, was the victim in the matinee game. Ten hits were combed from his offerings by the Aztec batters, while Harry Jackson. Carroll's flinging choice, was holding his foes at bay with his blinding fast ball. The Georgetowners reached him for a total of 11 bases, seven singles and a home run. Jackson, beside doing creditable defensive work, was the chief offender at bat. His two hits were a double and homer. The finale was also a well-played affair in which Virgil Coates and Frazier combined to pitch a five-hit game. Two errors, however, played a prominent part in the scoring of six Aztec runs. A large crowd was on hand to watch the pair of contests. Darkness stopped the second one after the regulation nine innings ended in a deadlock. First Game AZTEC. AB H R E ATHLETICS.

RAJAH, DePRIEST NINES COMBINE The Rajahs and the DePriests will combine due to the fact that the Washington Giants are not able to finish out the schedule because of the illness of their manager, Hayes Jones, and will be known as the Rajah-DePriest Club, and will play out the season, fulfilling the scheduled games assigned the DePriest club, assuming the standing of the DePriests in the league. This move will add greater strength to the league and give the fans a more balanced ball game. The combined club will play all home games on the Rajah Field. The league is scheduled to close on August 20, providing no postponements occur, and after the league winner is declared, arrangements are now being made to play a series of games with the winners of the championship of Baltimore's semi-pro league. Dunbar Playground Ahead in Net Activities Vincent Edmonson, of the Dunbar Playground at Walker Stadium Field, won the singles championship this week-end from a classy field of players vising for playground honors. Paired with Cloe Giles, Edmonsen was able to represent the Walker Stadium in the doubles matches also. James Marshall will represent the junior division, while Mattie Vinson and Wilhelmins Gordon will try to keep the girls' doubles title at Dunbar. COMMERCE IS ATOP DEPT.

The main go was for 10 rounds. Young Harry Wills of Washington, D.C., was kayedo by Tommy Miles, sensational Baltimore lightweight, in the semi-final. Miles got over the finishing punch early in the fifth round of the scheduled 8-rounder. The game Washington boy had been floored four times prior to the knockout punch. In the other two preliminaries, both 4-round affairs Johnnie Miller outpointed Gerald Reeder and Eddie Cooper drew with the hard hitting Baby Wolett.

ODD FELLOWS' BUILDING (Continued from page 9) sociation are Joseph Manning, president; William I. Lee, vice- president; Samuel W. Watson, secre- tary; Henry Braxton, treasurer; A. H. Hawkins, Charles H. Harris and Julia Pugley, directors. Mr. Wm. H. Lewis, Jr., has acted with the board as a committeeman on purchase and building. The cornerstone of the new Temple was laid on Sunday, March 27, 1932, and the building should have been completed and ready for occupancy in 182 working days from the letting of the contract. Water was encountered in the excavation and the question of extras, which were contested by the Order, delayed the completion. With the history of so many other organizations accepting anything put before them to their utter ruin, the management of the Odd Fellows pursued a different course regardless of delay to the end that the sanctity of a contract might be established. Architect's Description This building occupies the corner of Ninth and T Streets, Northwest, facing Ninth Street. It covers a ground area of approximately 6,500 square feet and is five stories high, including the ground floor. The architecture is restrained modern in character, the exterior being of red brick and Indiana limestone. Entering the building by the main Ninth Street entrance we find ourselves in an ample lobby with walls of Italian travertine and monel metal floors of patterned terrazzo and base of Virginia greenstone. This lobby gives access to two shops at the street level and to a group of offices, stairs, elevators and auditorium. On the ground floor below is a drill hall with attendant services, including a serving kitchen. The second floor is devoted entrances to office space. The third and fourth floors are lodgeroom floors and are almost identical. Each contains an executive committee room, a lounge and banquet room with service facilities, a candidates' room, and three lodge rooms, with the necessary ante rooms and wardrobe lockers. The building is of fire proof construction throughout with ample provision for natural light and air, and is also equipped with mechanical ventilation and an efficient oil-burning heating equipment. INVESTIGATED FOR THEFT Leroy Gray, 30, of 1406 Tenth Street, Southwest, was arrested and held on a charge of investigation in connection with the theft of a case of grape soda valued at $1.00 from a truck stationed at Second and F Streets, Southwest, last week. Baseball, Tennis, Track in Playground Spotlight The sectional championships of the municipal playgrounds' baseball league ended in victories for Howard, Cardozo, Rose Park, and Lincoln. On July 25, 27 and 31, these teams will stage a play-off series to determine which nines shall fight for the privilege of representing the municipal grounds in the city baseball championships on August 29, 30, 31. Montgomery is leading the school playground league with three victories against no defeats after Monday's game. The city tennis tournament will get under way on August 1. The competition will include junior and senior singles for boys and doubles for girls. Only the survivors of tournaments on the local playgrounds are eligible to compete in the city championships. The finals of the latter event will be held at Walker Stadium during the second week in August. After the dual track and field meets on twelve play centers during the current week, comes the conference meets at Cardozo, Walker Stadium, Rose Park, and Logan on August 6 to 12. Dual Meet to Dunbar Aggregation With the timely placing of men in the various events the Dunbar track team easily defeated the Banneker School team in a dual track meet, held in the Walker Stadium. Outstanding athletes included the following: E. Cooper, the Fields brothers, Bush, Tompkins, Tucker, and Rucker. The next meet will be held August 9. TRIALS AND ANXIETIES (Continued from page 13) stole second as Pree fanned. Jackson had done nothing at bat so it looked as though Bell would pull through—but remember it was a member of that same Jackson family that started the trouble in 1932. Jack singled cleanly to center, trying the score, and went to second when Brown violated the principle of neutrality by making a futile throw home. As Efthel Waters would say, "Why did he (Brown) do it?" Jeemee Walker sent a wicked grounder through the box when—Allah be praised—Bell's understanding got in the way. The ball caromed off his bunion (he again says leg) to A. Cooke who had rushed to cover first, for a perfect assist. Had the ball got through, Jack would have scored the winning run, because Clyde shut out Armstrong in her last trip. Then Cary would not have had the chance to do that stellar pinch pitching in the extra session, and Beverly would not have had the chance to park one in the concrete mixer and win the game 6-5 for Tech. Another unusual play in this same game saved Tech. In the Dunbar second, Thomas led off with a walk and stole second. Fenwick drove, but Jase drove a savage liner toward left on which Red Twin Clarke wheeled and threw the ball a mile over Hayes, covering second. Thomas touched second and started back for third when the other red twin—Chisley—playing way out of his right field position came from nowhere, scooped up the ball and while in motion cut loose with a perfect peg to third, that cut down Thomas who but for Chisley's alertness was due to score. These red twins claim that it was their strategy. And now for a case in which Tech made seven hard hits, including a double and two triples, vet scored only once. On April 22, 1926, Armstrong was playing Shaw during the prepping season, on the Monument Grounds. Who remembers when both Dunbar and Tech could not best that stubborn little group of ball tossers? Rush for Shaw and Bailey for Tech were the pitchers. In the Tech fifth, Husky Smith led off with a double. Smooth Scott drove the bell almost to the bath house in deep center and Smith scored the only run of the inning. But though the hit should have been a homer for Scott, he stumbled between third and home, and the relay got him. One out, but a triple for Scott. Ford, the tall lanky first baseman, drove a clean triple to right to start another rally (remember, four more hits are to follow). As Ford hitched up his trousers and stepped off third. Coates, the little third baseman for Shaw, rammed the ball in the surprised Ford's ribs and he was out. Speed Bailey singled cleanly to right to start it again. Sonny Robinson singled to center—a hard rap—but Thomas in center was not playing deep and Bailey was held at second. Alton Carter singled to left and as Bailey rounded third he mistook Coach Davis's yell to be, "Hold it!" instead of "Hone."—just as Stewart did in a 1923 game. Bailey came back to third and the bases were jammed. Frank Johnson drove one that eluded the shortstop, but the ball hit Robinson's heel as he attempted to jump over it. Johnson got a hit but Thanks folks, for your kind attention. Rob was automatically out. Incidentally Tech won 12-3. I find that spaces won't allow explanation enough to defend the all high selections, so I am requesting that this be defended. Sorry to disappoint in this issue, but am trusting that this gracious paper will see fit to grant this request later. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JULY 27, 1933 ALEXANDRIA NEWS MRS. ALMA P.

Twenty of the children who have been visiting in Alexandria and vicinity, under the sponsorship of the New York Tribune's Fresh Air Fund, returned to New York Friday. Among them were the three colored children who visited in Gum Springs, Va. The youngsters were accompanied to the Union Station by their hostesses. As the time for departure drew near, many of them clung to their new friends and said: "Please let us come back next year. Don't forget to ask for me, next summer." Miss Earleen Luckett, who recently won the Elks' regional oratorical contest conducted in Baltimore, Md., is the second student, who is a product of the Parker-Gray School to win the Elks' $1,000 Scholarship.

Later, when a student at Dunbar, he won the $100 prize in the Star's oratorical contest. Mr. Waddy is now a student at Lincoln University. Miss Luckett and Mr. Waddy became interested in these contests through Principal W. D. Elam, who coached Mr. Waddy for both contests and also helped interest Miss Luckett in the local contests. Miss Luckett is entitled to take part in the national contest at the grand lodge meeting in Indianapolis, on August 12, with free transportation as part of her prize.

Lewis, Halls Hill, last Tuesday. ***** HALLS HILL. — The intense heat of the day failed to stop the program at Mt. Salvation Baptist Church, and each service received much commendation and praise.

Richardson closed the morning service, and with his choir, ushers, official board and congregation went to Second Baptist Church, Falls Church, Va., where he preached the annual rally sermon, using for his appropriate subject "God's Filling Station."

(ANP)—The grand jury in session here returned indictments, Saturday, against twenty people in connection with an "insurance racket." One of the indicted men was white. Two were prominent colored doctors, and several undertakers. The names of all persons concerned were withheld by authorities. They are alleged to have swindled insurance companies of Birmingham out of $50,000. The racket was operated by substituting the names of policyholders for those of dead persons and collecting the insurance. Insurance money, it is claimed, had been received by this ring from $500 to $2,000 each on more than a score of colored people who are alive. No arrests have been made as yet. It is for this reason that the names of the indicted persons are withheld from the public. On the Air By ALICE M. MARTIN To try to broadcast after Miss Martin is going to be a bit of a task—but I promised her I'd do my best—so here goes.—C.L.F. * * * * Last Saturday the Schillitz Jug Band was heard over WMC, Memphis. The rhythm and novel musical effects achieved by this little band has made it an outstanding radio feature, especially down Dixieway. The music is produced from two guitars, a violin, a washboard and drumsticks, and an ordinary vinegar jug. While we who listen in are a hit weary of those down South sketches, Dixie Harmonies, a local Negro feature, which is on WMAL, put on a clever stunt last Sunday night at 9:30 o'clock. They introduced each song in a sequence of chatter which broke their repetition of selections. The female voice was pleasing. Tune in on them Sunday night. * * * * Little Jimmie Waters who hails from Baltimore via Lincoln University has edged little by little to a solo spot on-WRNY, branch of WMCA in New York. He will sing at random, accompanying himself on tenor guitar, banjo on violin as he may feel disposed. As he has composed some really meritorious popular songs, you may expect to hear "first renditions" any Saturday morning at 11:45. Mills Blue Rhythm Band, those musical playbys, playing nightly at the Cotton Club in Harlem will broadcast over the NBC network twice weekly instead of three times as heretofore. They will be heard on Tuesday and Friday nights at Twelve midnight, their usual hour. The regular schedule of three midnight broadcasts a week will be resumed in September. * * * * Word is going to the rounds that Ethel Waters is suffering from a recurrence of her old throat ailment and has been advised by her physician to do less singing. The writer sincerely hopes that this sweet singer will cut from the night club and by no means drop the radio hours that are winning such a wide following. She did not sing on her scheduled spot Monday night. The Gospel Feast Singers score on WMCA, Sundays at two-improving with every broadcast. thirty. Really a good item and Material is not hackneyed and it is rendered in sincere, authentic manner though there are occasional high brow arrangements by St. Elmo Johnson, the director. The voice of Thomas Anderson, the narrator, is excellent; his dialect satisfying. An improvement on the whole would be a consistence of speech in talk and singing. Ethel Waters and George Dewey Washington are to sing on WMAL Friday, at 11 p.m. If a local program is on WMAL, tune in on WJZ (760 K). WOL's Night Hawks, an all-request feature (Saturday midnight to 3 a.m. Sunday) proves that Handy's "St. Louis Blues" is the most popular tune on the air. Requests for "St. Louis Blues," and selections by Cab Calloway and Duke Ellington's orchestras outnumber all of the other requests made. Mary of the requests come from the Northwest and Southwest sections. **** Elder Michaux has a big radio audience in Alexandria, Virginia, among the poorer class of whites. **** We wonder why the names of the principal players and author of "Folks from Dizic" are never announced. THEATRICALLY SPEAKING (Continued from page 14) you must have noted already, because it's so hard to miss. Harlem is located in one part of New York's Manhattan Island. Bernice's birthplace is located in one part of Harlem—twenty years ago it was. She went to school... but let's skip over to her sixteenth year. Then we find her, somehow, making her first venture in one of Irving C. Miller's numerous shows, "Red Hot Hot Mamma" the forerunner of his famous "Models." This show was under the tutelage of Stephen R. Miller, who was general manager of Miller's units. Bernice showed signs of what her future offered in her dancing ability, even then. And she studiously learned the most of the tap steps which chorus girls ought to know. She was studious, rather than over-frivolous, and after a bit we find her doing her stuff for Connie Immelman, at the justly renowned Connie's Inn. under Leon Harper. The fact that she hasn't changed jobs many times, proves her consistency, for she stuck right with Connie, until he closed. She was here a few months ago, if you recall, with the try-out edition of "Connie's Inn Revue" and did a welcome bit of work in the chorus. She was one of the mainstays of that chorus. When the show closed, the Stiefels immediately plucked her from under the wing of Connie, and put her right into the revamped No. 2 chorus, which comes here, headed by Ethel Welch, whom you saw recently in the "Scat Singer" movie at the Broadway here. Bernice married four years ago, and has one child, now three years old. Choruses sometimes do have their hard drinking, cussing, boisterous chorines, and their never-to-be trusted slick ones, but this little girl certainly can't be thrown anywhere near that class. She has something to look forward to. And she can dance. And if that's a talent which can bring a living, why trifle with it? Perhaps that's the way she reasons, but whether or not, she acts that way. And I doff my lid to her for it. I said "in not too many words," so I'll tell you where to find her. At the Howard this week, she is the girl on the left end of the back row, the girl with the flashing smile, and a can't-hidden personality. Look for her, and see if you think me justified in saying all these things about her. What? Now, on with the show! The RAPHAEL scores heavily with its offering of the flashy Jimmy Cagney, in "Mayor of Hell," in which Mr. Cagney works with a vim and vigor to establish a new role for himself with success. By day he is a reform school instructor, by night a vulture of crime. Well, the picture is there today, so see it. "Bondage" will be the next feature movie. ***** The BOOKER T., with the Barrymore version of "Re-union in Vienna," offered another A-1 picture to follow "Secrets," and incidentally, continues to get praise for that cooling system. The REPUBLIC, with Jean Harlow and Clark Gable in "Hold Your Man," held capacity crowds throughout the week. The Harlow theme melody, "Hold Your Man" proved to be a song worth all the ballyhoo it has received, and was incidentally featured over the NBC network last Sunday morning. But, I wonder if Harlow can really sing like the synchronization seems to make her? Huh! The HOWARD. Four things stood out brightly at the T Street house this week. They were Pigmeat Markham and Johnny Lee Long, who between them have established a following in the District, second to none. Seconded by Bardu Ali, M.C., they pulled off a brand new skit which could be labeled "Who Stole Johnny's pants?" See it. This is one of the best sketches yet done by this unique pair of comics, whose work is always liked here. Doris Wade and Bob Wade, of Wade and Wade, proved to be a flashy nifty well-timed and well-tuned dance team, and each of the partners proved to the patrons that "the stuff was there," and Doris especially, with her song and dance eccentrics. The pair made a hit. Hinky and Dinky, a pale act from the RKO circuit, was a sensation, with a new and distinct novelty in the line of entertainment. This pair took the old idea of gymnastics and aerobatics, and did something altogether different with it.
