She breezed into the finish as fresh as a daisy and several yards ahead of her nearest competitor. Two in Skating Race Two girls showed up for the roller skating race. They raced against whites. Beatrice Graves, a Howard student, was seventh, and Olga Vrooman, Miner Teachers' College student, was ninth. The roller skating and bicycle races for boys were segregated. The winners were: first, John Belford, George Robinson, Charles Winston, David Cross and William Mason, in order; in the bicycle races. In skating, Arthur Minor, clad in a green sweater and orange knickers, easily outdistanced his competitors. He attracted considerable attention as he cut various capers up the avenue and before the judges he finished with a flourish and executed several fancy steps for the benefit of the spectators. SHOOTING AND FIRE PROBED BY POLICE Jerry Butler Shot in Arm While Working Near Blaze A double investigation of a shooting and incendiary fire at Eleventh and K Streets, Northwest, early this week, was launched by police, Tuesday. While firemen fought the blaze at 921 Eleventh Street, a.22 caliber bullet struck Jerry Butler, 22, in the arm as he polished a parked car at the corner. The bullet passed directly over a police car, the driver of which was assigned to the fire. After the fire, which caused approximately $200 damage, firemen found kerosene on a flight of stairs in the house, and oil-soaked clothes in the closet in which the fire started. The owner or the house was reported in Atlantic City, and police believe the fire was started because of a grudge. Mrs. Gladys Rice, 30, white, who operates the house as a boarding place, was taken into custody and later released. Education pays. Very few educated people are unwise enough to become educators. Thelma Savoy, 14-year-old vocational school girl, 219 R Street, Northwest, sprang the surprise of the Labor Day sweepstakes sponsored by the Daily News when she won the mite bicycle race up Pennsylvania Avenue against a field composed of four white girls and herself. Thelma started off with the pack, but gradually pulled away. She passed the leader near Seventh Street and kept in the van from then on. Following her victory she was awarded a new bicycle as first prize. It was not the intention at the beginning for Thelma to race against white girls, but failure of other colored entrants to show up left Thelma to race alone if her race was to be a jim-crow affair. However, the starters got in a huddle and at the insistence of several fair-minded officials Thelma was entered with the white girls. The white contestants showed fine sportsmanship and welcomed the girl in their midst. She was BLAZE DESTROYS SCHOOL LAUNDRY Damage at National Training School Estimated at $4,000 A fire which burned for nearly two hours before firemen were able to extinguish it, early Wednesday morning, destroyed the laundry building of the National Training School for Women. The laundry is located at 5000 Grant Street, Northeast, about 50 yards from the main building. The blaze which started in the basement of the building is believed to have originated from a short circuit in the electric lines. Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, president of the school, was reported in Memphis, Tenn., where she is attending the National Baptist Convention. However, other school authorities placed the estimated damage caused by the blaze at $4,000. DeWaard and G. T. Beakley, following an investigation. The laundry has been operating under lease by the King Laundry Company, and fortunately for its customers, most of the clothes collected after Labor Day were being washed at another plant.

Rob Berry, Harlem's self-styled "Mad Baron of Blab," scooped the whole town on the story. "Nita Alden," his column proclaimed in bold black type one morning, "will shuffle up the column aisle next week Rob Berry, Harlem's self-style whole town on the story. "Nita A black type one morning, 'will shu with no less a personage than His Royal Gracc, the Marquis de the Foulais, reputed playboy millionaire. And she a mere blues-singer!" The condition of Pappa Hoskins, proprietor and major domo of the Club Blue Bird, verged on the apoptotic as he scanned the item. His lower jaw dropped and his eyes bulged out. He sat behind the massive desk in his lavishly furnished office, rotund and glowering, roundly regretting that he had never learned to cuss. He struck a match to light a black cigar, but held it in his hand so long it burned his fingers. He got up, walked over to a widow, and gazed down into teeming Seventh Avenue, chewing to shreds the end of the still-unlighted cigar. After a moment he turned, plopped his overweight body once again into the the leather-covered chair behind his desk, and reached for the telephone. With stubby, nervous fingers he dialed a number. A moment passed before he got an answer. Then: "Hello, is this Nita?" "Miss Nita is not out of bed yet." "Tell her it's Pappa Hoskins. Tell her I want to talk to her. Tell her it's important. Tell her anything." There was a long pause, then the provoking reply: "Miss Nita says it's too early in the morning to talk to anyone." "Tell her it's about her contract. Tell her it's a matter of life and death. Tell her I've got to talk to her!" Another pause. Then finally: "Miss Nita says that all her business is taken care of by Mr. Sam Freeman. If you want to talk con- Passing Stop Sign Gets Man in Toils of the Law William Jones, 618 Third Street, Southwest, was arrested by police of No. 10 precinct last week at Thirteenth and Randolph Streets, Northwest, after the man had driven an automobile pass a stop sign. Following the arrest four 5-gallons of alcohol were found in the machine. He was held for investigation, on charges of illegal possession, passing a stop sign and failure to show a registration card. Jones failed to explain the ownership of the car he was driving to Officer Michael O'Neal who made the arrest. Man Injured in Fall from Window During Fight Johnson Washington, 35, was seriously injured, Wednesday, in a plunge from a second-story window during what police say was a fight in his home in the 400 block of L Street. He was taken to Freedmen's Hospital. Police say that Washington either was knocked or lost his balance and fell, from the window. George Blackwell, 32, of the L Street address, supposed to have been on the scene at the time, was arrested and held at No. 2 police station, pending the outcome of Washington's injuries. Vol. XIII, No. 19 tract, talk it over with him. Victiously Pappa Hoskins slammed the receiver down on the hook. He arose and paced the floor, talking to himself. He took the chewed-up cigar from his mouth and threw it into the trash basket. Then he flung himself into the chair again, thumbed through a phone book, and dialed another number. "Hello. Is Sam Freeman there?" A woman's voice answered. "Just a moment. I'll connect you with Mr. Freeman." The phone clicked, buzzed, then clicked again. "Hello. This you, Sam?" "Yep." "This is Pappa Hoskins. I want to talk to you about the Alden girl's contract." "What's wrong now, Pop?" "She's running out on me, that's what!" "Running out?" Sam Freeman laughed. "Of course she ain't Pop. Nita wouldn't do a thing like that. I wouldn't let her." "But didn't you read today's paper, Sam? Didn't you see where she was marrying some—some royalty?" Sam's voice was naive. "What's wrong with that?" "What's wrong with it! It means that she won't want to sing any more, now that she's got a million dollars." "So what, Pop?" "So what am I going to do? So how is the Blue Bird going to get along?" "She hasn't quit you yet, Pop. Sam remirded, "Although," he add.

D. Williams, white, of the Fourth Precinct, late Monday evening. Upon examining the man, the officer discovered that he was suffering from a stab wound in the left chest. Grimes was removed to Providence Hospital. The wounded man is reported to have stated that he was stabbed by Alice Dixon, in O'Neal's Court, Southwest, with an unknown sharp instrument. Grimes died at the hospital on the following day at 4:40 p.m. The Dixon woman was arrested and held at the Fourth Precinct pending an inquest to be conducted by the District Coroner. Insane Slayer Stabs to Death 13-Month Old Baby NEW YORK—A slayer believed to be insane crept into an apartment at 2 a.m., Wednesday, and stabbed to death a 13-month-old baby, Dorothy Holder. The baby's parents awoke in time to hear the killer run down a flight of stairs to the street. On the crib they found a note saying: "This is just a warning." The father, McAllister Holder, a postal clerk, said he knew of no motive WASHINGTON, D.C., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1933 CALLS MATE TO HIS SHOP SHOOTS HER Anxious Sister Leads to Discovery of Shot-torn Bodies of Victims Anxious over her sister's failure to return home over night, Mrs. Christina Payne caused police of the First Precinct to start a search, which led to the discovery of the murder of Mrs. Sarah White, 43, of 235 O Street, Northwest, by her husband, John W. White, 45, of 112 H Street, Northwest, who had also committed suicide. The Whites had been separated for some time, but were on friendly terms, the wife frequently visiting her husband, who lived in a room in the rear of his H street barber shop. White telephoned his wife, late Thursday, to come to his shop, which she did, leaving home about 9 p.m. Just what transpired prior to the double shooting will never be known as the lips of the principals are sealed in death. After Mrs. White failed to return, Friday morning, Mrs. Payne, accompanied by a niece, Vivian Barrington, went to the barber shop. Arriving there shortly before noon, the two women found the shop locked. Somewhat worried, they appealed to the First Precinct for aid. Officer T. D. Bacon, white, accompanied the two relatives back to the shop. Going around to the rear of the building, the officer looked through a window and saw Mrs. White's body slumped in a chair. Forcing his entrance into the shop, the officer found White's body sprawled on the floor, face downward. The full charge on a double-barrel shotgun had entered the right side of Mrs. White's face, (Continued on page 2) POSTAL CLERK'S PROBE DELAYED UNTIL SATURDAY Examination of Mrs. Pearl Louise Gray, of 1517 P Street, Northwest, on a charge of taking $ from a letter while employed as clerk at the main post office, scheduled to be held before United States Commissioner Needham C.

Seek $7,498 from National Benefit Refund of Dollar Money Paid by Agents is Also Requested $3,669 WAS HELD AS TRUST FUND Hearing on Petition is Scheduled for Friday Seeking to collect $7,498.53 from any funds that the receivers of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company may have in their possession, Leon M. Bazile and W. H. Cardwell, both white, receivers of the company in Virginia, filed a petition, last week, requesting that they be allowed to intervene in the proceedings. The petition specifies that on October 10, 1931, the authority under which the National Benefit was allowed to do business in Virginia, was revoked by the State Corporation Commission. The Virginia receivers allege that premiums amounting to $3,829.03 were collected after the revocation of their authority and the appointment of the domiciliary receiver, Daniel Roper. The Virginia petitioners contend that the money should be returned to them in order to be distributed among the policyholders. The declaration also states that prior to the revocation of the company's authority to do business, the agents were required to deposit $1 weekly as security for the faithful performance of their duties. A total of $3,669.50 was deposited in this manner as a trust fund, according to the petition. The Virginia receivers desire that this money be returned to the agents of the state who contributed to the fund.

Officials of the alliance announced that the guns of the organization will be leveled at the drug stores following reports that one of the chain stores at Fourteenth and U Streets and another at Seventh and M Streets had refused to serve colored. Refused Service Jessie Lewis, Howard University instructor, and Walter Carter, assistant cashier at the Industrial Bank, were refused service at the store at Seventh Street, until they had protested to the manager. Both of these stores are largely supported by colored trade. Mr. Lewis stated that he ordered two drinks and the clerk placed them in paper cups with tops on them. Mr. Lewis refused to drink from the paper containers and asked for silver service. The clerk told him that Negroes were not given silver service. NRA MEMBER U.S.E. WE BO OUR PART ARED uicide MINISTER'S NOTE HINTS CHAGRIN MINISTER'S NOTE HINTS CHAGRIN Rev. W. W. Henry Addresses Miss June Kent as "Mrs. Henry" To the home-loving, God-fearing folk of the Nation's capital, the Rev. W. W. Henry, 21, member of the evangelistic troupe who manage to keep in the spotlight, may be just a devout young minister of the gospel summoned from the material sphere of life to lead the bold and righteous in the paths that are drab and shorn of worldly pleasures. But to June Kent, 21, of 1924 Eighth Street, Northwest, the dapper dispenser of the gospel remains her torchy cave-man lover. Frequently after chasing the devil in some local pulpit at a night's service the Rev. Mr. Henry leaves to monopolize the attention of the frail blond girl. The love affairs of the newcomer in the religious circles of the city first came to public attention, in July, when Miss Kent leaped from a speeding auto driven by the Rev. Mr. Henry. She claimed that he was racing toward Rock Cree! Park, where he had threatened to do her bodily harm. Despite her charges that the Rev. Mr. Henry is just as liberal with his manhandling of her as he is with his ecclesiastical advice from the pulpit, Miss Kent claims that she still loves him. Although of only short duration, the affair has reached the stage where the Rev. Mr. Henry addresses Miss Kent at Mrs. June Henry. The Henry troupe left here the (Continued on Page 3) Lunch Campaign uses Drug Stores in Heartened by Success of Kle Segregation Policy in Negro Sections On protesting to the manager, the clerk was made to serve the drinks in silver cups, the same as whites are given. The manager tried to explain that it was the policy of the store not to serve colored people, but when he was told that his store was supported by Negroes he became submissive and made a half-hearted apology. May Picket Store Mr. Lewis threatened to have the store picketed by numbers of the alliance, of which he is an officer. It has been pointed out that the drug stores will serve colored people only after trying to get them to leave the counter. A meeting of the alliance will be held Saturday night at the Y.M.C.A., at which time a program will be presented for dealing with the drug stores. The successful picket of the Hamburger Grill which closed the place and forced the owner to retire dismissed colored youths who had been replaced by whites has given the alliance new determination, and they plan to use it on other unfair stores in Negro communities. The Peoples Drug Stores will get the first charge from the guns of the alliance, according to plans of the officers, who are all young men.

The conference lasted three days and was given over to a discussion of present problems of the Negro race with special reference to what these younger men consider should be the immediate objectives of the Negro race. Among the subjects which were considered were "The American Negro and His Future Program" "The Attitude Which the Group Should Assume Toward Any Program of East Indian and Other Colored People"; "Revolt and Revolution"; "The Weakened and the Accomplishment of the Older Program"; "Possible New Programs" "The General and Liberal Reform Movements, Socialism and Communism." LOW PRICES PREVAIL AT OLD INDIAN HERB STORE The management of the Old Indian Herb Store announces continued low prices on merchandise despite the increased cost of herbs, medicines, lucky charms, novelties, toilet goods, beauty accessories, etc. It is stated that the goods marked at the rast low prices will be sold without increase in cost to the purchaser.

Miss Burroughs Plans"New Day" for Little Girls of the Race Says Too Many Children Are Going to. Waste; Plight of Mothers Tragic; Training School to Open New Department By NANNIE H. BURROUGHS While many are talking about charting new courses for Economic Recovery, we are concerned about charting a new course for child conservation. $T_0$ that end, the National Training School for Women and Girls is opening a new department for little girls between the ages of 8 and 12. This new feature is added to meet an urgent need of mothers who are compelled to leave their little children and go out to work every day. Only the Recording Angel knows how many thousands of promising little children actually go to waste every year because "thee is nobody home." The public schools can only turn the children in at nine and turn them out at three. Thousands of children are left to shift for themselves from that time on and they are shifting from bad to worse. Mothers are distressed over this condition. Many are the women who have said to us, "I work with my heart in my mouth." Only today we receive a letter from a mother in Philadelphia who says, "I have to work all day and worry about my daughter who is eleven years old." A woman cannot work and worry and at the same time give satisfaction on her job. Above all, the race cannot move forward unless children are given a fair chance to grow up decently. As badly off as the Negro race is for leaders and home-makers, we cannot afford to stand by and see little girls going to waste without doing something about it. Writing essays and delivering high-sounding speeches about social conditions will not solve the problem. We must provide a place that will take the place of the mother and the home. Our Economic Plight The economic plight of the Negro woman is tragic. During this depression she is bearing the economic burden of the race almost alone. She has the longest hours and she gets the lowest pay. Her home is either neglected because of her enforced absence or it is crowded with relatives and roomers because of financial conditions. Children are living in social and moral surroundings that make it impossible for them to have a ghost of a chance to grow up decently. We propose to give the little gibla who are sent here to be trained, and properly educated, an environment such as a real home offers, and an atmosphere that is healthy, happy, and wholesome. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1933 For this new work we will have the best teachers that can be found. Negro Protestants do not have schools for little children—boys nor girls. We burden Catholic institutions with our Protestant children, and some of us have the temerity to try to cast aspersions on that denomination for their vision and vigilance. I hold no brief for the Catholic church, but if we Protestants were doing our duty half as well, we would not lose so many young people from the churches every year. We should provide an institution of character for our own, or we should extend a rising vote of thanks to any denomination, individual, or organization that does. Exhaustive Program for Children Exhaustive Program for Children We are going to teach the child everything that it should know, from the care of its body to the value of its soul, so that it will grow in physical, mental, moral, social, and spiritual grace. All we ask is that you send us children who are sound in body and mind—not incorrigibles—and that the parents provide simple, comfortable clothing and be able to pay the very reasonable fee. Children between the ages of 8 and 12 may remain the year round. For this new department we are particularly anxious to have children with unusual talent in music. There will be no extra charge for music lessons. We believe this plan is inspired and out of this noble experiment will come a new and finer womanhood. Give us the child before it goes wrong and we will give you character and culture glorified. Remember, while you are doing this special work, we shall continue to do our academic and trade courses for girls of junior high school, high school and junior college grades in a bigger and better way. MISS MABEL BYRD GETS APPOINTMENT IN NRA RESEARCH DIVISION Capital News Service It is announced that Miss Mabel Byrd, a graduate of the department of economics of the University of Chicago, has been appointed to a position in the Division of Research and Planning of the National-Recovery Administration. Miss Byrd, it is stated, will serve in some set-up under Dr. Abraham Sachs, to gather pentang data concerning the effect of the recovery program upon Negroes. Death Rate Shows Slight Increase Slight increase in Washington's death rate for the week ending August 26, as compared with the same period of 1932, is observed in the weekly statement released by Dr. William C. Fowler, District health commissioner. In 1932, the rate was 11.7 per 1,000 persons per annum; during the week covered, this year, it is 12.2 per 1,000 persons. The total number of deaths in the week ending on August 26, was 43 colored and 73 whites. The increase is partially attributed to an increase of deaths from the following causes: hardening of the arteries, heart disease, suicide, influenza, and auto fatalities. Colored deaths from the above causes were: heart disease, 12; hardening of the arteries, 2; auto fatalities, 2. The total number of patients under the observation of the Child Welfare and Hygiene Service was given as 2,190 colored and 3,213 whites. Of the 195 births reported, 38 were colored. The birth rate for the colored group was 14.4 per 1,000, per annum; for the whites, 22.8 per 1,000, per annum. KILLS MATE (Continued from page 1) horribly mutilating it. Her murderer had then taken a stick and drove a small nail into one. Placing the muzzle of the shotgun under his own chin, White pulled the trigger with the stick, hooking the nail in the trigger. The charge tore away flesh and bone as it crashed upward through his head. When discovered, the dead man's hand was still clasped about the stick with which he snuffed out his life. Officer Bacon summoned an Emergency ambulance. Following the pronouncement of death by an accompanying physician, the beds were removed to the District Morgue. Detective Sergeants William Liverman and C. M. Strange, of the Homicide Squad, who investigated the double killing, found one person who told of hearing something like a gun's report between the hours of 9 and 10 p.m. Thursday. At the completion of the detectives' investigation, Dr. C. J. Murphy, deputy coroner, issued certificates of murder and suicide, respectively. Buried Separately Separate funeral services were held at the same hour, Wednesday, White was buried from the Barnes and Matthews Funeral Parleers and interred in the Rosemont Cemetery. Mrs. White was buried from Fraser's Funeral Home and laid to rest in the Lincoln Memorial Cemetery. Mrs. White is survived by: mother, Mrs. Christina Barrington; sister, Mrs. Christina Payne; two brothers, William and Fradrickar Barrington; two nieces, Vivian Barrington and Gladys Smith.

BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL Negro Press Not Enthusiastic over NRA Procedure to Date Negro Press Not Enthusiastic over NRA Procedure to Date Not Voicing Antagonism but Alarmed at Provisions of Codes Affecting Colored Workers and Businesses Adversely Capital News Service Widespread comment is heard here as current issues of Negro papers, throughout the country, reach the Capital carrying news stories and editorials that are anything but complimentary to the NRA program, as it affects the Negro. It appears to be the concensus of opinion, of the Negro press, that a new and serious economic situation confronts the masses of the race, which situation will grow worse unless there is a decided change in the methods of applying certain specific provisions of the National Recovery Act. Evidences of apprehension along this line are furnished by the following headlines, picked at random, from current issues of Negro newspapers, throughout the country: "NRA—No Recognition A' Tall" "New Kind of Slavery Lurks in the New Industrial Code." "South Seeks Dual Standard in New Code." "Industrial Code May Handicap Southern Workers." "Connivery of White South Deprives Negroes of NRA Benefits." "North Carolina Workers Uneasy Under NRA Displacements." "Fight Against NRA Job Discrimination Rages." "NRA Should Stand for 'Negro Recovery Also.'" Editorial comment points out that the Negro is "The Forgotten Man" in the NRA set up, and that black labor is the forgotten element in the make up of the codes of fair competition, submitted by the industrialists. NRA—"No Recognition A"Fall" In a leading editorial in the Black Dispatch of Oklahoma City, August 12, Editor Roscoe Dungee says: "The editor of the Tulsa Eagle rises to facetiously remark that NRA means for the Negro, 'No Recognition A Tall.' At least, that is the statement which the editor credits to a Negro servant girl who works out in the South end among Tulsa's white millionaires. "Seriously speaking, it appears that the National Recovery Act after making the Negro 'The Forgotten Man.' proceeds to do many things which seriously menace the economic advancement of black people, and in a great many instances, will confiscate and destroy many small business, establishments. "Most Negro domestics in the Southland work for a wage pittance around from three to five dollars per week. In addition, they work long hours. The first move of the Southerner was to see to it that 'domestic help and outside workers' did not come within the meaning of the wage raise and shorter hour provisions of the Industrial Recovery Act. . . . "Take for instance, the laundry industry in the South, where Negroes are largely employed. The white employers are demanding that the code provide that Negroes receive $5.67 for this class of labor while in the North the wage code for white laundry workers is already set at $10.80. This base injustice has been agreed to by the authorities in Washington. "Without regard to the fact that the buying power of Negro laborers has not been increased, the recovery codists turns to Negro business men and insist upon their abiding by the general code which white merchants are required to observe. Apparentl those who fashioned this new economic circle cannot realize that when they place the Negro masses in a peculiar and demoted class, they at the same time place Negro business in a strait jacket."

Chicago, New York, Los Angeles THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1933 The Amenia Conference Findings Come now the publicity committee of the recent Amenia Conference of the "half-hundred brightest minds among the younger Negroes," and gives a full statement of the "findings" as reported by a committee. The release states that thirty-one persons in all were present—and gives their names and residences. According to this list there seemed to be little justification for the previous report which indicated that the conference was composed mainly if not wholly of "recent university graduates who have shown brilliance," unless the word "recent" is to be interpreted very liberally. That, however, does not in any way detract from the importance of the participants or their findings. The findings as a whole leave the impression that the conference, found—as most previous conferences and sanhedrins have found—that something should be done, but was not quite clear what and how, or else the committee that formulated the findings was timid about stating them frankly and explicitly. For example the release states: In addition to advocating a new labor movement, it is suggested that Negroes, regardless of seeming class differences within the race, must unite more closely in the interest of the group's economic welfare. Except for the recognition of "seeming class differences within the race," the suggestion that we "must unite more closely," sounds like the same old pointless invocations which we have heard countless times in lieu of something concrete and which have got us nowhere. However, the findings were not all so pointless. We read— A new labor movement with Negroes as active participants, is suggested. Its activities must be political as well as economic . . . and the findings go on to state that the social reforms to be put through by the movement "may go to the extent of a change in the form of government itself." That sounds pretty strong, but when we note that the social reforms named are merely "old age pensions, unemployment insurance, the regulation of child and female labor, etc," one is led to wonder why such reforms, which are already in effect by legislation in many states, should involve a change in the form of government, unless the change would come about due to the intended reforms hidden in the "etc." But, the politically timid may be reassured by the statement in the findings that communism "is impossible without a fundamental transformation of the psychology and attitude of white workers on the race question and a change in the Negro's conception of himself as a worker"; and there is no hint that the conference or the new labor movement will or should undertake any such job. A Warning—Maybe The final decree of Justice O'Donoghue last week, ordering the dissolution of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, brought to an end the suits and countersuits, petitions and plans which have confused and harassed the policyholders and the public during the last two and a half years. The water is over the dam, yet we may perhaps learn some lessons from its whirlings and swirlings as it passed over. Without attempting to pass judgment on the merits of the charges and indictments which have been laid against various officers and employees of the company, it seems fair to say that, leaving aside all the real and alleged irregular, shady and illegal transactions of the officials, there is disclosed in the various reports of the actuaries and receivers enough loose and incompetent management to have wrecked the company even without the help of the depression which served to bring matters to a head. Even when it extends no further than to cover straight-life policies and to risks covering sickness and accident disabilities, life insurance is a complicated business, requiring careful, conservative, and alert management; and its so-called expectancies do not rest on any too stable a foundation of probabilities. And the many varieties of modern insurance risks which have been developed, including various classes of endowments, annuities, and protective underwritings, involve and rest upon a mass of bewildering, intricate and delicately balanced calculations that extend into the higher mathematics—considerably above the reach of any but beyond-the-college specialists. It was into this deep and deeper water that the National Benefit plunged and plunged, ignoring, avoiding and deceiving its would-be life guards. What else could be expected than what occurred? Will its course and end serve as a warning to our big business men, or even to our littler ones, whose chief endowment is "mother wit" added to arrogance based on whole or majority ownership and the jealous fear of losing "control"? Training Tables Belittled Now that the opening of the football season is nearing, we are likely to have revival of the controversy concerning the necessity of the so-called training table. It is interesting to note that Jesse Owens, the East Technical High School spinner who astonished the sporting world by his speed and endurance at Chicago meet this summer, is listed among the athletes who do not lay much stress on restricted and selected diets. In an article in the current Literary Digest—illustrated by a picture of Owens in action—we read: Jesse Owens, the sensationally successful Negro runner, even takes the stand, according to Edwin B. Dooley, of the New York Sun that "when sprinting interferes with food, cut out the sprinting." Not, of course, that the training table has been altogether abandoned, or is likely to be. Pie, pudding, ice-cream, smoking, and late hours, are still high crimes on some squads, and serious matters in many more. But the fact that many an athlete breaks once sacred rules of diet—and records to boot—is worth noting. . . . After citing evidence from two outstanding white athletes, who minimize the importance of restricted dieting, the article goes on: Owens, the Cleveland sprinter already mentioned, has never found that steak, pie and rich foods in general, interfered with his speed. And he has done the 100 in 9.4. If he doesn't eat chicken and watermelon, it is because he doesn't like them. "He eats what he likes when he wants to," says Mr. Dooley, "and apparently he is none the worse for that policy." Earl Thompson, once a stand-out in the high hurdles, was moderate and careful, but paid little attention to training rules. He would frequently, we read, smoke even on the day of a race. We find the same thing true in football. Many a winning team has paid no attention to restrictions of diet. A number of Cornell's greatest elevens illustrated this. They did not even have training tables, says Mr. Dooley, and as long as they didn't overeat, had no inhibitions of the sort placed on them. On the other hand the great Metcalfe adhere to tradition. Zionists to Favor Nazi Goods The following news story in the Daily Worker of last Saturday will come as a setback to those who argue that Jews would not cater to, or patronize their persecutors, as do American Negroes. The article in the Worker states: BERLIN, Sept.1.—A deal between Palestine Zionists and the Hitler government, by which the Jews agree to buy German exports in return for the chance to sell half their value in Palestine oranges in Germany is revealed here today. George Halperin, Zionist leader and director of the Anglo-Palestine Bank, conducted the negotiations. The Zionists agree to accept German imports worth twice as much as the Germans agree to accept from them. In another deal, Palestine authorities agree to buy German goods equivalent to the amount of cash which German Jews will be allowed to take out of Germany as they fly from Nazi persecution. The total the Nazis will allow German Jews to take out is 3,000,000 marks. I cannot think what lures you out To pace this busy street along; Bold eyes that plead and gleam and shout Watching the gently flowing throng, A discord in melodious song. What ill advantage can accrue To such poor spawn of shame as you, Lady of the Avenuc? Your pain lies through the shine, and th Are struggling for a distant goal As far from yours as pole from pole. Then why should you obscure the view That eyes of yours may never woo, Lady of the Avenue? Thus, I see you with the eyes Of those who raise the ban and bar; Your brothers stare in quick surprise; Your sisters' blush tells what you are That curses with anathema Who dares to stain the spotless hue Of those who grace the choir and pew, Lady of the Avenue. But then I look again and see The chain that links us to the earth, That runs from you to them to me And makes mortals of one birth. And then I think I see your worth Is not so much in what you do As that which makes us sinful, too, Lady of the Avenue. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 7. 1933 Dean Miller Twits Protestors Against the Selection by Pointing to the White Men Heading the N.A.A.C.P., the Urban League and Other Racial Welfare Bodies. By KELLY MILLER The Secretary of the Interior who has been designated by President Roosevelt to head up his building program involving the expenditure of over three billions of dollars has appointed Clark Howell Foreman as spokesman and referee for the Negro in relation to this great enterprise. Naturally enough the Negro press has generally expressed disappointment because a Negro was not designated as representative of and spokesman for the race. Mr. Foreman is of high Southern family connections and has shown his liberal spirit and intelligent sympathy for the Negro. No one questions the fitness or suitability of the appointment, but the whole point of the criticism hinges on the question of the Negro's serving as his own representative in all such relationships. When a delegation waited on Secretary Baker of the War Department requesting him to assign colored men to training camps, he quickly responded that he would do no such thing; that personally he would have no objection to training with colored men, but that he could not run the department in harmony with his personal views; that as Secretary of War, he was not charged with the duty of solving the race problem, but of winning the war; and that in his judgment the war could not be won in that way.

SECRETARY ICKES ACTED IN GOOD FAITH We must bear carefully in mind that the Secretary of the Interior, friendly as his record shows him to be, is now charged with the imperative duty of lifting the depression. If he has chosen what he deems the best means to that end, although it may not suit our sensibilities, yet we can understand his motive and method. Secretary Baker designated that eminent colored citizen, Emmett J. Scott, as special assistant to advise him on racial matters affecting the war. His choice was a wise one. No white man, however kindly disposed, could have served so well in that capacity. In that instance it was necessary to keep the sensibilities of the colored race in harmony with the aims and purposes of the war. This no white man could have done. But now the case is entirely different. It is necessary to induce the employers of labor to do the fair thing by Negro workmen. Candor compels us to admit that the Negro referee, however excellent in his personal capacities, would hardly have influential contact with employers, especially in the South Mr. Foreman's assignment is an ideal one, but it might be complemented by a colored appointee to function among the employees.

NEGRO SHOULD FUNCTION THROUGHOUT HIS RACIAL CIRCLE I have always been and am now an advocate of the Negro presenting his own cause and pleading his own case with his own voice I believe in Negro teachers for Negro schools Negro preachers for Negro pulpits. In a word I believe in the Negro functioning throughout his segregated circle. In most instances, I believe that such self-management will be more effective, even if not more efficient. But where the interests of the white race are equally involved, we must consider both factors of the equation. I would like to see a minister to Haiti, but at the same time I recognize that a member of a despised class might be at a great disadvantage in matching the craft of the old world in tackling the diplomatic delicacies of the Caribbean situation. Both Mr. Hoover and Mr. Roosevelt dispatched a white representative to Liberia be cause each must have supposed that a white man could better serve the far-reaching national ends on the African continent. After the broader lines have been laid down, undoubtedly a colored man will be signed to that position. The state department under James G. Blaine, dispatched a naval officer to Haiti to supplant our regular minister who was none other than Religious Douglass EDUCATIONAL AND RELIGIOUS BODIES HEADED BY WHITE MEN The same policy is pursued by our educational and religious bodies. The Rosenwale Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation and the Jeanes Fund have placed white men in charge of Negro interests. Many of the South ern states have a white supervisor of Negro education. Every religious denomination working among the colored race has a white man in general charge of that particular field. A white man heads the board of trustees of our leading Negro colleges and universities. Going a step further, white men are at the head of the Urban League and of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. A change of the color scheme of the headship would probably prove fatal to both of these organizations. White men, for reasons which need no explanation, are more closely related to the channels of public and private power and can bring greater influence to hear upon the Negro's cause where appes must needs be made to white men.

MANY WHITE SOUTHERNERS OUR SINCERE FRIENDS Objection cannot reasonably be advance against Mr. Foreman because he is a Southerner. James H. Dillard, William Alexander, J. C. Embree, are all Southernners but the Negro has no better friends nor more intelligent sympathizers—no, not in all the nation. I know that Secretary Ickes will pardon our group leaders for expressing regret or even chagrin that one of its own members might not have been chosen as race referee, but under all of the circumstances, I am sure the calm sober judgment of the race will approve the appointee and applaud the appointer.

Insurance Laws Cause Sacrifice Realty Sales By CLIFFORD C. MITCHELL The new insurance laws of the state of Illinois, as well as many other states, are causing many insurance executives some concern as to how to dispose of their surplus realty holdings, without too much of a sacrifice, for, under the new laws, insurance companies, within the next two years, are forced to dispose of all their realty holdings except what are actually needed in their business. Consequently our colored companies, especially the larger ones with many thousands of dollars tied up in real estate investments are considering methods that will best effect a disposition of their investments. And at a time when there is little or no market for the sale of real estate the problem is one calling for knowledge, judgment and good financing. The Supreme Liberty Life Insurance Company has adopted a unique method of disposing of their surplus real estate. Instead of waiting for the approach of the day the law becomes effective with the hope that prices will rise and a market develop, they have decided to dispose of their investments at the present day low market value and in such a manner that their investment account will be changed from a real estate asset, which is considered more or less frozen, to a more liquid term of accounts receivable. They have figured that it would be much better to dispose of these investments now, at their very low market value, when the purchaser will be assured of the advantage of increased prices and thus the company's funds would be in the nature of a loan that is steadily increasing in value. All selling prices have been figured on such terms as to give the purchaser fifteen years to pay for each piece of property, with as little as five per cent of the selling price down and the balance like rent, with the interest figured at only five per cent. Out of a long list of properties ranging in value from a thousand dollars or so, to many thousands of dollars, the following are typical of the inducement offered: "This is a six-room cottage, frame structure, located near the South Second Street car line. The price is $1,800; $100 down and $15 per month to cover the principal and interest at five per cent." "This is a nine flat frame building, consisting of six rooms to each flat, and is located near the State Street car line. The price is $7.238; $100 down payment and the balance at the rate of $30 per month including installment on the principal and interest at the rate of five per cent." And the properties in the higher price field are listed at prices and terms in the same proportion, thus making it easy for a reliable purchaser to use just a small amount of cash as a down payment with the subsequent terms so low that in some instances the rent will more than meet the payments. These properties for sale are scattered throughout the twelve districts in which the company operates and include both residential and semi-business properties in the states of Arkansas, Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia. And in addition to offering low prices and easy terms, the company will also allow a liberal commission to interested persons who can effect a sale for any of their long list of properties that must be sold within the next two years in order to comply with the new insurance laws but which the Supreme Liberty Life Insurance Company proposes selling immediately through its novel selling plan.

Thinks Sororities Are Worth While if the Individual Members Have Creditable Records of Achievement To the Editor: To the Editor. In reading your editorial in the Tribune of August 24, based upon the question "Are Sororities Worth While?" as treated by Jeanette Triplette Jones, I was forced to conclude that you had failed to weigh fully what the writer said. Her one statement that the worth of sororites "is to be found in the personnel of these groups" should be enough to conclusively settle the question. It isn't the name of an organization which gives jit its status, but the calibre of its members. The varied names of sororites merely differentiate the one from the other and mean next to nothing until the accomplishments of (Continued on page 11) A Cynical Appraisal of "Afric Professional Upliftery" By RIENZI B. LEMUS In full realization of the truth—that Negroes of the United States cannot be regimented as "the Negro" in matters economical or sociological. Negro professional leadership is dying hard, and those foundations and funds with some cash left are rushing their Negroes to the front. That accounts for the line-ups of African Professional Upliftery, Inc., on the Roosevelt Administration at the seat of government. And it also accounts for the designation of a Georgia white man, Clark Foreman, as official adviser to the Roosevelt administration on matters 'Afrique. Negro regimentation has always been the financial obligation of "philanthropic capitalism," and when that branch of the scheme represented by the Interracial Movement is affected, white men pull the strings and the "puppets" jump. We certainly should not forget Booker Washington's selection of a white Democrat for appointment as U. S. district judge in Alabama by the first presidential Roosevelt. The interracial movement hadn't taken the present form in Washington's day, but the substance was the same then as it is now; with the difference, however, that Negroes have changed. When Jesse Battle trod the winnpress alone and became New York's first colored cop, paving the way for more than a hundred Negro policemen, himself and two others now sergeants, the N.A.A.C.P. hadn't got quite articulate, and even though the Washington branch is a useful institution, new Negroes who never went to college, last week took matters into their own hands and forced the white manager of a U Street graub-ry to take back the Negroes whom he had ousted to make jobs for white hash-hucksters. And so the question: "Why an Intercessor, whether white or black, for Negroes in the Roosevelt Administration?" In last week's issue, under the caption of "Our White Intercessor," the Washington Tribune undertook to take to task Secretary of the Interior Ickes for designating a Georgia white man, Foreman, as official adviser to the Roosevelt administration on economic matters concerning Negroes, "especially those growing out of application of the new recovery codes." The Tribute was attempting to back up the position of protest taken by Secretary Walter White, of the N.A.A.C.P., who contended that a Negro should have been named by Secretary Ickes instead of a white man. But why? The white man is from Georgia, and it is in Georgia—seat of the headquarters of the Interracialealers—that Negroes are mostly being flagged from the beneficences of the new recovery codes. I let nothing tempt me from my place as a leader of the common herd within the herds, not even an invitation from the President of the Rosenwald Fund to the gathering under the fund's aegis at Washington last spring, followed after declination by another through a mutual friend. That's why I am up on actual reactions of Negro persons; and it is the failure of most Negroes to respond to the professional leaders' leadership which renders all of the latter so frantic about representing "the Negro" for this administration. Walter White has about as much authority for selecting a Negro for any post in this administration—even on "the Negro" grounds—as I would have to pick a valet for Paul Robeson; and the administration knows it. In going over the newspaper clips of N.A.A.C.P. releases since Secretary Ickes, a "member" of the Chicago N.A.A.C.P., began to assure Mr. White that "the Negro would get a square deal," I find no occasion on which the Secretary made the least commitment to make the N.A.A.C.P. arbiter of the administration's square deal "to the race." There is but a handful of Negroes involved in the cotton code. Mr. John P. Davis, nevertheless, made a great showing at the hearing on it—got widespread newspaper publicity. Yet "the Negro" was left out to be taken care of by the President in another code after New Year's. That, because they were Negroes, SPECIAL FEATURES Think It Over By BEATRICE M. MURPHY THIS PARENT RACKET I used to think that parents were the most wonderful, self-sacrificing individuals on earth. Now I've learned that they can also be the most selfish individuals that God ever took the trouble to make. All of my life I've heard of the sacrifices that parents—especially mothers—make; and I began to believe that it was a child's duty to give up his or her life ambition, career, marriage and everything else he held dear if mother didn't approve, or mother needed him. But when you stop to analyze the situation, doesn't a mother sacrifice because she wants to? Doesn't a man and woman marry and have children because they want to? Do not all mothers enjoy going without for their children? There is no mother, however, who does not feel a pang when she realizes that her "baby" is fighting for freedom — for a chance to live his own life. Some mothers are brave and give the children up with a smile and find that in allowing them freedom of choice, she has drawn the bond tighter between them. Others hold on to their sons and daughters like a drowning man to a rope. Selfish parents wreck as many homes as gin and wayward children. I suppose parents will ask: What do we get for our years of sacrifice? You get what you deserve—whatever that may be. You get a joy that you would never have known otherwise—the joy of parenthood. You get love and sunshine in the house and about eighteen years of opportunity to show how big and courageous you can; be years to develop that self-satisfied-feeling of having made a sacrifice and of having made a worthwhile contribution to humanity. Whatever way you look at the situation, you GET as much as you give. After all these years of sacrifice, what should you expect? Nothing. You have only done your duty and what you wanted to do. Your child owes you nothing except perhaps a certain amount of respect. If you were old and ill you would expect him to contribute to your support. That would be his duty. But he wouldn't have to give up his life to do it. You can't force people into appreciating things. You can only give and hope they will be big enough to see what it has meant. Hope for? That's different. You are hoping that he will have enough manhood in him so that he will turn to you rather than away from you—that he may realize what it has meant all these years to play fair with him. You hope for lots of things, but you expect nothing. I am not saying that youth should be selfish and inconsiderate of parents. I am trying to point out that your son or daughter has as much right to live his life as you had when you decided the way you wanted to go and went. It is purely selfish to say that it is a child's duty to give up his life and everything he holds dear. Of course parents have their rights, but so do children. The old adage might well be changed to say, "Duty sometimes covers a heap of plain, downright selfishness." we all agree. But we are not fully correct. It happened when the President was cailing and importing the South to vote wet and bust up that bloc of thirteen states which could go dry and prevent repeal of the 18th Amendment by Christmas. Injection of "the Negro" in the South's cotton codes threatened "repeal." So after repeal, Christmas, "the Negro" will get his cotton code New Year's. With new Negroes always seeking the limelight, we should see why Clark Foreman, white, with social entrees away from formal hearings, should be the choice of Secretary Ickes rather than Walter White or my friend, T. Arnold Hill, who would keep two typewriters busy getting out three-column releases to the Negro press on what he's doing "for the race." Frankly, it shocks me to read that The Tribune never suspected the purport of the Economic Conference on the Status of the Negro held there last spring under the auspices of the Rosenwald Fund. I "tumbled." That was why I did not accept the invitations to go. And I can get verification by the Secretary of Labor, to whom I wrote at the time that the result would be a drive on her to name someone chosen or selected by the fund as a sole "the Negro" representative. From the assembling of the head-heavies of the Business League in New York last winter to the date that George Haynes parked himself in the hearing room of the Department of Commerce, and through the releases of Walter White on "promises" of Secretary Ickes it was palpable to me that the units of Afric Professional Upliftery, Inc., were engaged in a life and death tussle for the post of head "U. S. Sam" at the White House. Wonder what is The Tribune's reaction to the significance of Dr. Channing H. Tobias's call by invitation upon the President at Hyde Park House? I have heard Mr. R. R. Moton say that the chapelainy of Tuskegee is Dr. Tobias's if ever and whenever he wants it. New York City. This Week By HAROLD G. EATON THE NEGRO'S DEPRESSION PHILOSOPHY Edwin C. Hill, a widely read columnist of the daily press, tells us in one of his late articles, what he and other intellectuals of his race think of the depression and its effect upon the Negro population. Mr. Hill writes that the colored people are the hardest hit by the depression because "they do the work that has fallen through the long ages to the sons of Ham—the lowly tasks." The "lowly tasks" that he points out are: janitor work, elevator operation and furnace work. These he says are the first to be discarded by the employers to cut expenses. Of Harlem's 250,000 Negro population, he contends, "No population center in America has suffered the privation that has been felt for the past three years in New York's Dark Harlem." He says further, "But one finds more cheerfulness there today than anywhere else in the city, certainly far more than along Park Avenue or Fifth." The reason for this, Mr. Hill states is the Negro's deep-seated philosophy in having a love for ease, a readiness to relax, and a habit of taking nothing seriously in life. "These are the traits which which has enabled him to face the desperate and endless days of the past three years and stand up under them with a laugh as he plunks away on his banjo and pour out his rich voice," he says. What I would like to ask Mr. Hill is: What "ease" can one enjoy on an empty stomach? Man is lost disagreeable when he is hungry and nothing will make him think of taking things more seriously than cramps caused by lack of food. Therefore, he is in a state of restlessness rather than one of relaxation. The columnist undoubtedly visited one of the gay night clubs of Harlem and there drew the conclusion that all Negroes in Harlem are loafing around living (as parasites and numbers backers do) a life of ease. I would suggest that Mr. Hill visit the back streets and witness the effect of the depression upon the struggling masses of humanity that cannot afford the pleasures of night clubs to make whoopee. He would find there the same philosophy among Negroes as among any other people in Amer- IN THE REALM OF BOOKS IN THE REALM OF BOOKS By C. LESLIE FRAZIER "Maggie L. Walker—Her Life and Deeds," by Wendell D. Pabney, is a history written in such a way as to make it more interesting than an American real life novel, and when we stop to think about the fact that the heroine is one of our own women battling against many odds we are the more enthusiastic over her endeavors. Mrs. Walker's accomplishments, under extreme physical handicap, in the field of banking, journalism, fraternal, social and racial efforts are too well known to need any elaboration in this commment, for no one can think of Richmond, Virginia, without at once thinking of Mrs. Maggie L. Walker. Perhaps no better historian could have been found to record for the race the life history of this remarkable woman than her friend, W. P. Dabney. By reading the book we learn that they were children together in the same neighborhood, and quite naturally Mr. Dabney could treat his subject in the light of actual lime-time knowledge—Clifford C. Mitchell. * * * * "A Short History of the Baptist Denomination" by Myles Mark Fisher, is a well printed and bound book with 488 pages, published by The Sunday School Publishing Board, National Baptist Convention, U.S.A., Inc. The price of the book is $1.50. An outstanding feature of the book is the space given to contemporary events by the historian, which we do not consider to be history but they make their contribution to history. Some contemporary events appear to be more significant than time proved to have been. The author has given us a very interesting book that will prove very helpful to those who wish to be better informed in Negro Baptist history. Behold, now is the day of salvation. (2 Cor. 6:2.) How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation? (Heb. 2:3.) Seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. (Matt. 6:33.) For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

There are those late vacationists who prefer to wait for cooler weather to leave town and are at the present time enjoying out-of-town pleasures. However, the majority of social leaders bid farewell to the distant rendezvous upon the passing of the first Monday in September and with bag and baggage returned home to begin plans for the winter social season, Private clubs, fraternities, sororities and the like are compet- ing with each other now for securing convenient dates for their fall and winter dances and each pastcae organization is trying to lay plans for the most notable affair of the season, ‘The social calendar promises an array of brilliant affairs for the coming season, Many prominent Washingtonians have found it convenient to visit the Century of Progress Exposition, extending their time to Labor Day; others have preferred the nearby busy New York City to spend the holiday; still others selected the ever-popular nearby beaches for the Labor Day, outing.

ENGINE COMPANY NO.4 IS WINNER OF SECOND PRIZE Downpour Prevents Thousands from Seeing Float Entered by Firefighters Engine Company No. 4 was awarded second prize Monday for having the second most beautiful float in the annual Firemen's Labor Day parade. The award carries a cash prize of $25 and a silver trophy. The first prize went to Engine Company No. 22, white. The float of No. 4 represented a Japanese flower garden. Before it reached the judges' stand it was sadly bedraggled with many others as the downpour of rain caused the colors to run and many of the paper decorations presented a sad appearance. The firemen at No. 4 have been winning first prize for several years and thousands were disappointed as they had to leave before the parade was half over as a terrific downpour sent thousands scurrying for cover as the parade came down Pennsylvania Avenue. Japanese characters on the float were as follows: Misses Jocelyn, Alicia, Teodora and Justine Lombre, Madeline, Evelyn, Constance and Elaine Arnold and Janet and Bernice Hall. Band Plays "Stc my Weather" The decorations were by Miss Lydia G. McIlwain, 1714 Second Street, Northwest. It required three weeks to complete the float. The Community Centers Band, James E. Miller, director, preceded the float. Firemen acting as escorts were: Sergeant J. Mills, A. A. King and J. A. Briscoe. Private M. R. Ross was driver with Private C. Young as assistant. As the float swung into the avenue the Community Centers Band struck up "Stormy Weather," which was taken up for the crowds lining the sidewalks. Miss Elizabeth Hooper, 23, of 406 Lanes Court, Northwest, injured her left side, last week, when she fell down a flight of stairs at her home. In last week's Tribune and article appeared which stated that Miss Louise Moorhead and Mr. Leonard Terrell were privately married in July at Annapolis. Mr. Terrell has assured the Tribune that the report is false; that no such incident has occurred anywhere at any time. The statement was made on the authority of a note sent to this paper by mail. The Tribune regrets the error. The Howard University Faculty Committee on Scholarship and Student Aid this week announced the award of fifty tuition scholarships to Howard University students for the year 1933-34 "in interest of the promotion of scholarship throughout the university and to give assistance to worthy students during the present emergency."

Elder Michaux Baptises 185 in Muddy Potomac River as 7,000 on Bank Hear Service Crowds Disappointed When Crippled Woman Is Not Made Whole To the strains of a brass band, Elder Solomon Lightfoot Michaux, head of the Church of God, 2000 block of Georgia Avenue, baptised 185 candidates in the waters of the muddy Potomac at the foot of Water Street, Sunday, while an estimated crowd of 7,000 lined the shore and kept time to the famous song of the evangelist, "Happy am I." A Tribune reporter counted 185 anxious white robed candidates as they filed out on a barge anchored off the shore some distance from the Army War College. The barge was tied up to the steamer E. Madison Hall which brought the candidates, elders and guests from a pier located on the river. Of the number baptised there were eight white persons, three of whom were small white children. Hold Parade Before the baptising the candidates were put in six big busses and paraded through the streets of the city. All were dressed in white cotton robes with towels around their heads. Elder Michaux and his assistants were dressed in black robes. To the syncopated tone of "Happy Am I" the services got under way at 3 p.m. and were broadcast over Station WJSV. The candidates climbed onto the barge from the boat where Elder Michaux preached a sermon. At the end of the service the men to be baptised climbed down a ladder attached to the barge and formed a double line through the water to a spot some 50 feet from the barge. Here microph nes were installed in a row boat and held over the elders to catch the shouts of the baptised as they Officials of Federation of P.-T. Associations Help N.R.A. Drive Officials of Federation of Auto Victim's Body P.-T. Associations Help Returned for Burial The Rev. J. D. Pair, president of the Federation of Parent-Teacher Associations of the District, who was named as a captain in the NRA drive, was asked to maintain a bureau of information and to cover the colored churches of the city. To that end he appointed two lieutenants: David E. Wells, secretary of the executive committee of the federation, and Herndon B. Jones. The former was asked to establish the information bureau and the latter to secure speakers for the churches. Lieutenant Wells secured quarters at the Y.W.C.A. and a corps of assistants, who have kept the bureau open 12 hours each day. Lieutenant Jones, chairman of the organization and extension work of the federation, has sent out more than 100 letters to pastors and speakers at his own expense. He and his speakers contacted more than fifty churches for the NRA last Sunday, Elder Michaux Purges Flock in Waters of the Potomac Washington Tribune WASHINGTON, D.C., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1933 were ducked in the muddy water Miracle Falls to Haven Miracle Fans to Happen As a grand finale to the baptising, Mrs. Martha Keller, 60-year-old paralytic, was brought out into the water from the barge where she was baptised seven times. Elder Michaux announced before he performed this rite over the crippled woman that she had requested it and believed that her affliction would be cured if she could be immersed seven times. Thousands counted each time the woman was carried under the water. At the count of seven the vast crowd held its breath waiting for the miracle which did not occur. Mrs. Keller hobbled back to the barge with the assistance of strong arms and disappeared inside the boat—still a cripple. However, the crowd gave her a lusty cheer as she was assisted aboard the barge. Denies Charging Candidates A daily paper Monday morning intimated that Elder Michaux charged the candidates $3 a head, but he denied this rumor to a Tribune reporter, Tuesday. Elder Michaux's secretary stated that there was no charge made for baptising the candidates. Microphones were installed on the barge which carried the service to the crowds on the btnks. The service was lea! as far as a mile away. Many lined the banks around the Tidal Basin where they could hear the service through the speakers. It was noticeable that many white persons were in the crowds and clapped their hands, shouted and sang with the gray-robed choir. There were some five or six white members of the choir who outsang and outshouted their colored sisters. Jew Family Baptised The three white children to be The body of Edward L. Jones, of 1603 S Street, Northwest, who met with a fatal automobile accident in Texas, August 26, was brought back to the city, Sunday. Funeral services were conducted from the Clark Funeral Parlors, at 10 a.m. Wednesday, with interment in the Lincoln Memorial Cemetery. Mourning their loss are two daughters, Edith and Parthenia Jones, and one step-daughter. Mr. Jones was a member of the Morning Star Elks' Lodge. Citizens' Association to Hold First Fall Meeting The Central Northwest Citizens' Association will hold its first fall meeting Thursday at Garnet-Patterson Junior High School, at which time officers and delegates to the Federation of Citizens' Association will be elected. George W. Beasley is president of the Central Northwest Association, and P. A. Beasman, secretary. Family of Jews Among Candidates Immersed by Radio Minister baptised with their parents were Jack, Ralph and Janet Frances Gutman, and their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Louis Gutman, Jews, 613 I Street, Northwest, Gutman is now an elder in the church. The Gutmans became members when their maid invited them to a service. They readily embraced the faith and became staunch supporters of the Church of God. Newsmen threw discretion to the winds and waded into the water up to their shoulders in order to get a closeup of the proceedings. Newsreelmen and cameramen also climbed from the barge into the water to get pictures of the baptising. Water Over Children's Heads Little children had to be carried through the water as it was over their heads. There was very little shouting among the candidates after they were baptised. In fact, there was more foot-patting and swaying of bodies by spectators on the boat where the music was than among those who were "made whole." Following the service "Happy Am I" was sung and the boat moved off to the pier where the guests and candidates were unloaded to attend a service that evening at the American League Baseball Park. Those assisting Elder Michaux were Elders Carroll Edwards and M Walker, and three deacons of the church. Three persons were baptised at one time with Elder Michaux reciting the words before the immersion. All three were dipped simultaneously. When they were brought up out of the water the white robes were a dirty brown color. Youthful Bandits Rob Hacker of $3 A description of the three youthful bandits who are said to have held up Frank E. Wilson, of 922 French Street, Northwest, taxi driver, was radioed to police scout cars, early Friday morning, shortly after Wilson reported the incident to the Fourth Precinct. Wilson stated that the trio hired his cab at Third and M Streets, Southwest. When he reached Third and N Streets, they ordered him to stop the cab and took $3 from him at the point of a pistol. The youth who held the pistol was described as being about 22 years of age, dark-skinned, wearing a brown sweater and dark trousers. The other two culprits are reported to have been about 19 years old and wore dark clothes. HURTS HEAD IN FALL Striking his head on a piece of iron in a fall, Gilbard Williams, 7, of 1635 Third Street, Northwest, was treated at Freedmen's Hospital for a bruise if the scalp, last week.

JURY FREES MAN CHARGED WITH ATTACKING GIRL Attorney Put on Stand to Answer Charge of Tampering with Witness Howard Sawyer, 700 block of R Street, Northwest, was freed by a jury in Police Court on a charge of attacking a 16-year-old girl. The alleged attack occurred on August, 9 at a house in the 2000 block of Eighth Street, Northwest. Attorney S. R. Swancy who represented Sawyer was put on the stand by Assistant U.S. Attorney Irving Goldstein who claimed Swancy had tampered with government witnesses. The girl, Margaret Keener, 1700 block of Eighth Street, claimed Sawyer invited her to go to a movie and instead took her to the house where he is said to have forced her into a room where the alleged assault took place. Girls Tells 2 Stories Later Miss Keener denied the attack in an affidavit and claimed she concocted the attack story to fool her mother who threatened to whip her for staying out late. In the affidavit Miss Keener denied Sawyer had ever made any improper advances to her. Mrs. Annie Jefferson, 1300 block of S Street, a sister of the girl, also signed an affidavit to the effect that Miss Keener was at her home at the time of the supposed assault. However, on the witness stand the girl repudiated the affidavit and told her original story of being attacked by Sawyer. The jury brought in its verdict of not guilty after three hours of deliberation.

Street, Northwest, filed an affidavit that her husband, Francis Lynn, of 1331 Eighth Street, Northwest, whom she had sued for separate support and maintenance, was in arrears $107.75 with his alimony. Mrs. Lynn also alleges that her husband is making $25 a week and tips as caretaker at a club located at Seventh and O Streets. The wife averted that her husband is taking care of another woman and that is the reason for Lynn's neglect of his wife and infant child. Ordered to Pay $25 a Month Mrs. Lynn filed her original suit on February 3. The petition stated that they were married on October 27, 1932, in Alexandria. Returning to the District, the couple lived together until October 30, 1932, when Lynn is said to have rented a room at 20 Florida Avenue, Northeast, paid for a week's lodging, then left. On March 17, Justice Cox ordered the husband to pay the wife and expectant mother the sum of $25 per month. Promised to Pay On June 28, Lynn was cited to appear and show cause why he should not be adjudged in contempt of court for being $78.75 in arrears. At the request of the husband, who is said to have made promises of payment, several continuances were granted. The hearing on the rule was scheduled for Friday, the day when Mrs. Lynn filed an affidavit stating that her husband was $107.75 behind in his payments. The wife and mother is represented by Thurman L. Dodson. THEATERS SPORTS D. C. PASTOR WINS COURT BATTLE The Rev. W. H. Jernagin Awarded $295 from Funds of the Third Baptist Church Climaxing six days of testimony and six months of litigation, the Third Baptist Church, of which the Rev. W. H. Bullock is pastor, was ordered to pay the Rev. W. H. Jernagin, pastor of the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, $295, also to pay the cost of the court, by Judge James A. Cobb, in the Municipal Court, Thursday. The case came to the attention of the court in April when the Rev. Mr. Jernagin sued Odell Parker, a contractor, of 485 Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest, for $220 due on a promissory note. The Rev. Mr. Jernagin succeeded in securing a judgment against Parker on May 26. Forms are Pre-dated Parker was engaged at the time in making repairs on the Third Baptist Church for $1,400. Immediately upon securing the judgment the minister, through his attorney, George A. Parker, secured a garnishment and attachment against any funds in possession of the Third Baptist Church which belonged to Parker. Testimony revealed that after the service of the garnishment, certain creditors of Parker were paid. The church contended it had no money belonging to Parker at the time, of garnishment. On the witness stand, Mr. Parker testified that the three reputed assignments of payment were made on July 14, while the case was being tried. He stated that he was taken to the office of W. L. Houston, attorney for the Third Baptist Church, by James H. Coleman, an officer of that church. Coleman, he said, wrote forms for the alleged assignments and dated them back to May 20-24-26. These alleged assignments were payable to the Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company, $240.12; to the J. F. Kelley Lumber Company, $29.88, and to William H. Crump, $25. Mr. Parker further declared that Mr. Coleman told him that he wanted the forms because the church was involved in litigation and that they wished to show that the assignments had been made before the case got to the court. He was also ordered to make the forms on the same type of paper that had been used for making other orders pertaining to the job, the witness stated. Mr. Parker made the forms and later delivered them to Mr. Coleman. When the alleged assignments were produced in court at the insistence of Attorney Parker, the trustees of the Third Baptist Church, including Mr. Coleman, declared they knew nothing about them. Following the testimony of Mr. Parker, Mr. Coleman was recalled to the stand and identified the assignments given to Parker as being in his own hand writing. He later admitted that they were prepared in the office of Attorney Houston. Pastor Tries Boycott While on the stand, Mr. Parker also testified that the Rev. Mr. Bullock had told him that unless he stuck with the church in the case he would see to it that he would not get other jobs. The Rev. Mr. Bullock is then said to have called up a Mrs. Catlin, beauty operator in the 900 block of U Street, and told her that Parker was a crook and told her not to give him a certain job until after the case was sattled. Judge Cobb in his decision stated, "If these be the facts, and there is no contradiction, it is clearly a case of contempt of court." In summing up, the jurist further stated, "I am of the opinion that the assignments conform neither to equitable or legal assignments and that Dr. Jernagin had a right to recover and that the assignment to Crump was not an assignment, and therefore all the money paid out was not properly paid out, and should not have been paid and that judgment should be given for Dr. Jernagin." Mr. Houston noted an exception to the finding and stated that he might file a petition for a wort of error. William H. Hastie was associated with Mr. Houston as counsel for the church.

HEARD DECLARES HIS INNOCENCE BISHOP W. H. HEARD DECLARES HIS INNOCENCE Venerable Prelate Says He Can Explain Shortage; Accuses Bank PHILADELPHIA, Pa. — Bishop William H. Heard has taken cognizance of the action of the committee which found him guilty of embezzlement and misappropriation of $18,000 of the funds of Wilberforce University, said to have been collected while he was in charge of the Third Episcopal District. EDITOR'S NOTE.—In last week's issue by a typoographical error, the alleged shortage of the bishop was stated as $1,800. The Bishop sent a special delivery letter to the clergy in the First Episcopal District urging them to "withhold their judgment until there is a trial when I will prove to the African Methodist Episcopal Church that my 53 years in its service are still unblemished." In the letter he charges the Citizens and Southern Bank and Trust Company of Philadelphia with certain irregularities, and says that the Rev. R. R. Wright, president of Wilberforce and vice-president of the bank "knows better than any one else that a good part of my alleged shortage rests securely in the vaults of his bank." He also declares that every penny of the shortage is accounted for, and a considerable sum over the shortage. In his letter he says, in part: "As you know, I was bishop of the Third Episcopal District from 1928 to 1932. During that time I was responsible for moneys collected to be used for Wilberforce University. No voice was ever raised against my accounts and no charges were brought against me. "It is only after I have completed my service there, and after my financial committees have disbanded, and after the general conference has passed on my character, now, at a time when it might be deemed that I would be least able to defend myself, these charges are brought forth. The explanation for this unusual procedure is very interesting and I will outline it to you. "The Citizens and Southern Bank and Trust Company of Philadelphia from time to time during the period of 1928 to 1932, loaned large sums of money to Wilberforce University. The late Bishop Jones and I were obliged to sign notes for this money. Shylock cried for his pound of flesh, and the Citizens and Southern Bank and Trust Company made Shylock's demands seem amateurish. "Bishop Jones and I were obliged to pay a ten per cent bonus every time we made or renewed a loan for Wilberforce University, in addition to the regular interest charges, plus costs of recording, etc. This bonus charge over a period of years was in the neighborhood of $5,000, yet I am given no credit for it. "The acting president of Wilberforce University, Rev. R. R. Wright, is a vice-president and director of this bank. He is well aware and knows better than any one else that a good part of my alleged shortage rests securely in the vaults of the Citizens and Southern Bank and Trust Company. So here we have the acting president of Wilberforce University complaining about a shortage in his school's money when a good portion of that money went to a bank of which he is vice-president and director, and his father, the president, and his brother a director, and his sister a cashier. Every minister in this district knows that he can't borrow money from this bank unless he pays a bonus. "An item of $7,882.07 has been charged against me for money raised by district conferences of presiding elders for Wilberforce University. No such sum nor was one dime raised for this purpose at presiding elders' conferences. This accusation is false and made with knowledge of its falsity. I defy my accusers to prove this accusation. "The other items of expense are smaller and are itemized so that it will be sufficient to say that they consist of bad checks, expenses of Chautauquas, expenses of presiding elders' councils, loans to poor churches, etc. "Every penny of this shortage is accounted for and in fact a considerable sum over the shortage is accounted for." WRIGHT DENIES THAT BONUS WAS. CHARGED The Philadelphia Tribune of last week said: "When seen by a Tribune representative on Monday in his office at the bank, Nineteenth and South Streets, Major Wright denied that Bishop Heard ever paid the bank one cent in the way of bonus fees for money loaned. He implied further that the bank had never charged him more than the usual rate of interest for the loans made." Willing to Sue Bank "In a letter to the Tribute, Bishop Heard, referring to the bonus payments which the bank head denies were charged or paid, states that if she is authorized by the trustees board of Wiberforce Uni- versity, he is willing to bear all the expenses of a suit against the Citizens and Southern Bank and Trust Company of Philadelphia, to recover from them exhorbitant bonus payments which he was obliged to pay for loans to Wilberforce University. "If Wilberforce is really interested in getting back this money, they will then learn where a goodly portion of my alleged shortage can be found." + "However, he adds, 'it is understandable why Wilberforce University may act with hesitancy. Is not its acting president, Reverend R. R. Wright, also a vice-president and director of this very bank?' Local Minister Visits 118-year-old Grandmother The Rev. L. C. Collins, a former student of the Shaw Junior High and Dunbar High Schools, has returned to the city from a visit to his native home, Locust Grove, Va. The Rev. Mr. Collins who is now 23 years old has been licensed from the M. Nebo Baptist Church, Sixth and P Streets, Northwest, almost two years, and is making rapid progress in the ministry. The Rev. Mr. Collins assisted in a revival at the Shoal Creek Baptist Church, where he was baptised in 1922. The church is pastored by the Rev. I. S. Mack of Atlanta, Ga. Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Collins, the parents of the Rev. Mr. Collins, have a large farm out from Locust Grove and gave their son an enjoyable time. He visited his grandmother, Mrs. Fannie Applin, who is not helpless at the age of 118 years. She was sewing when they arrived and has never worn eye glasses. Among those to entertained the Rev. Mr. Collins and R. J. Moore of Washington as their guests—were the Rev. and Mrs. J. H. Lowe, Mrs. Geneva Trimble, Mrs. Laura Solomon, Mr. and Mrs. Ethron Grier, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Rosser, Mr. and Mrs. T. S. Watkins, Mr. and Mrs. J. E Lemons, Mr. and Mrs. John Walker and a host of other friends.

A word to the wise should be sufficient. minds of my readers who are business men. I rewrite excerpts from Administrator Hugh Johnson's radio speech of August 27. "The first step is for every enployer to adopt the Blue Eagle The Roosevelt unity plan. sinply cannot go forward with an considerable number of employer standing aside and taking advantage of the patriotism of the We have to be defeated in order to succeed. Most of us spend half of our lives in fighting things that would only destroy us if we got them. A man who has never been defeated is usually a man who has been ruined. J. L. ALLEN After due deliberation, I have decided to devote the remainder of this column to the NRA and the Negro as I see it. I will first approach the subject from the viewpoint of the NRA canvassers. Jimmie (Navy Department) Lee, the Newshawk, and many other Federal employees of color, solicitors for the NRA consumer's cooperation campaign, are experiencing some difficulty when they approach some Federal employees. Some reasons for retusal to sign the pledge cards follow: Says one: "When the Government gives my husband his back pay I'll sign and not a day before." Some just don't like the NRA campaign. "I don't believe in it," one woman told me. "This thing won't do any good, and I don't see any sense in signing that card." Many made statements to this effect: "Sure I'll sign and get a Blue Eagle but I wish someone could start some silver eagles flying instead of so many blue ones." However, more than 95 per cent are signing. Yours truly, who is a lieutenant in the canvass army, has two 100 per cent blocks to his credit to date. Another development in the local situation is the fact that many people are being employed within the District as a result of the NRA set-up and the work in connection with it. The "new deal," of which the NRA is one hand, has brought almost in the twinkling of an eye a great group of government agencies in Washington. Of tremendous importance to the colored people in the National capital is the development of this new group of government agencies. It means that already in the Federal service in Washington approximately as many persons are employed as there were on June 30, 1932. The total number of Civil Service employees in Washington on July 31 was 66,991. It is probably considerably higher today, since efforts have been made to give Civil Service employees who were thrown out of work in the President's reorganization and economy drive opportunity to obtain work in the new agencies. The NRA is proving itself a fertile field of employment as it labors to bring employment to millions through the adoption of the codes of fair practice. Already it is reported the number of employees of the Recovery Administration in Washington alone has passed the one thousand mark. The business of the Federal government has been for years the big industry of the National capital. Without a return of men and women to work for the government in Washington, there seemed little chance for industrial recovery in the city. The NRA, the Public Works Administration, the Farm Credit Administration, the Home Loan Bank Board, plus the Home Owners' Loan Corporation, the Federal Relief Administration, the Tennessee Valley Authority, the Federal Transportation Board, and the Reconstruction Finance Corporation (a holder from the last administration) are all doing their part toward greater employment in the District of Columbia. So much for the District. Congressman Oscar DePriest, of Illinois, is prominent among those Middle Western people who are inquiring with serious concern about the delay in getting the Federal Public Works program under way. His constituents and also Democrats of color remember the promise of Secretary of the Interior Harald L. Ickes to give 1,000,000 men jobs by October 1. Nowhere in Illinois, Indiana, or Wisconsin is there as yet a single man thus employed. The NRA cannot be blamed for this, but the fact that all appropriations must be entered on the Treasury's books first means that it will be a month or possibly six weeks before any jobs on Federal-financed public works will be available. Of the $400,000,000, set aside by the National Industrial Recovery Act for highway construction, the share of Illinois is $17,500,000. The writer believes that the prime reason why there are so few Blue Eagles in the windows of Negro businesses is because the business men are ignorant of the correct procedure to follow. Hoping to clarify the situation in the minds of my readers who are business men I rewrite excerpts from Administrator Hugh Johnson's radio speech of August 27. "The first step is for every employer to adopt the Blue Eagle. The Roosevelt unity plan . . . simply cannot go forward with any considerable number of employers standing aside and taking advantage of the patriotism of their competitors. "Why are there any employers not under the Blue Eagle? "The big trouble is lack of information." "A second obstacle is the fear of honest, patriotic men that they cannot do what the President asks and remain in business. What they do not understand is that, by getting a certificate from his local Chamber of Commerce or Merchant's Association that he cannot comply, any man is entitled to get and display a provisional Blue Eagle while an investigation is made by the National Recovery Administration. That should be explained so that nobody in the country is in the dark about it. "Any violence—even any critical comment or unkind words in this effort is repugnant to its whole purpose and volunteer workers have no right to use such means." The Negro Press, because of the practice of firing Negroes before wages are raised to a level required by the NRA fair competition codes and the apparent helplessness or indifference on the part of the administrators, has thrown few bouquets at the set-up. The Louisiana Weekly, under date of September 2, says ediorially in part: "Many of the stores flying the Blue Eagle are not in perfect accord with the President's program. For instead of complying to the extent that the NRA becomes a success, they make the matter worse by increasing hardships for those already affected by unfavorable conditions. The Negroes who are signing consumers' pledge cards should 'beware of the Greeks bearing gifts.' Blue Eagle stores who shelve Negro labor for white are guilty of gross misconduct and invite the wrath of the Negro consumer." The Norfolk Journal and Guide's feature columnist, Gordon B. Hancock, has this to say: "Negroes more than any other group need to ponder seriously the implication of the shorter hours and increased wages of the NRA, the shifting of emphasis from the material to the spiritual." The Richmond Planet, conceded to be America's oldest weekly, having been first printed in 1882, is a bit skeptical. Editorially, it says in part, under date of September 2: "It is the same old story of the cart before the horse, this feverish rise in price levels in anticipation of the operation of the National Industrial Recovery Act . . . The NRA is an admirable bit of legal mechanics dispatched on a worthwhile mission. It is entitled to a fair trial, but it is difficult to avoid the conclusion that the act is paradoxical, because it holds to an obsolete system which is synonymous with exploitation, avarice and profiteering, and is tied to the sand bag of production for profits. Anyone who had to go to the shop, market or barber in Richmond last Saturday and pay the toll exacted will heartily concur in this conclusion." The Carolina Times, Houston Informer, and Atlanta Daily World seem to agree that there should be no separate codes for Negro employers and workers. Although this sentiment is not at all nationally unanimous, it represents consensus of opinion. I reprint a section of one of the editorials from one of the aforementioned publications, to wit: "The Negro press and most of the Negro leaders are unanimous, and rightly so, in the opinion that in the formulation of the various codes under the NRA, there should be no separate codes for Negro employers and workers. Negroes cannot consistently countenance Jim-Crowism when it works to their advantage, and complain loudly when it works to their disadvantage. They must be consistent in their opposition to the system wherever it appears, regardless of the consequences, if they are to uproot this double standard and double dealings in America. "What difference does it make if a few casualties are suffered? "It is far better to lose a few businesses and to hazard some displacement of Negro workers than to advocate and accept a rating of inferiority which has taunted and harassed the race in everything it has attempted since the day of emancipation and will continue to impede its progress so long as Jim-Crowism is compromised with or tolerated. "Let the fat and well among the group share with the lean and under-nourished, and all resolve to take it together standing up. Separate codes are Jim-Crow codes, and the American Negro will never attain the stature of a full-fledged American until Jim-Crowism in every conceivable guise is utterly destroyed." The writer feels that it is quite fitting and proper that he should stop there. BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL After 50 Years . . . What will be the condition of your family burial lot?

BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL Appraisals of Homes for Loans Are Based Upon Three Factors Manager of Home Owners' Loan Corporation for Virginia Explains Method Used in Determining Value of Property RICHMOND, Va.—The method used by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation, established by act of the last Congress, in arriving at appraised value of homes for refinancing purposes, is based on three factors, it is explained by John J. Wicker, Jr., Virginia State manager of the corporation. home in 1928 was reasonably worth $10,000, and therefore at that time when there was a fairly normal market for homes, it had a mar ket value of $10,000. Now let us assume that on account of the depression the present market value has dropped to $6,000. Further assume that the present cost of In arriving at its appraisal, Mr. Wicker explained, the corporation will consider the market value of the home at the time of appraisal. The cost of a similar lot at the time of the appraisal plus the reproduction cost of the building, less depreciation, and the value of the premises arrived at by capitalizing the monthly reasonable rental value of the premises over a period of ten years. "It is the purpose of the corporation," Mr. Wicker said, "in making appraisals, to arrive at the fair worth of the property. The appraised value, therefore, means the fair worth of the property or the present-day reasonable worth of the property. The fair worth of the property is not necessarily the technical market value." For purposes of illustration of the plan, Mr. Wicker said, "let us suppose that a typical American OUR MAIL (Continued from page 4) their members make them something of which the world may well be proud. Jeanette Triplette Jones must have been gratified to know that as a result of her article the epitaph, "This monument doth not make the famous. O Euripides, but thou hath made this monument famous." was brought to your mind. It merely clinches her statement that the personnel of an organization determines its worth. The builders of monuments make those monuments worth looking at and the members (builders) of sororites make them worth or not worth belonging to, as the case may be. However, keeping the epitaph in mind, is it not possible that to many people Euripides was famous merely because there was a monument erected to his name? Is it not possible that the sight of the monument might have inspired these people to learn about the man? Now then, although fraternal organizations do not inspire all of their members to fame (for if they did, fame wouldn't be worth having) they often prepare them for better citizenship by bringing out hidden abilities and capacities which other rise would remain ever dormant. Very often the mere affiliation with the sorority of one's choice makes a balanced individual of one who formerly suffered from an inferiority complex. Thus sororities can make of their members fit subjects for society after all means more than mere fame. Although the author of the article in question used Delta Sigma Theta women to prove her point, let us by all means agree that other sororities have members equally as celebrated as does Delta Sigma Theta. VALERIE E THELYN PARKS, Delta Sigma Theta, Howard University, 33. Washington, D.C. A Tribute to Miss Lucy E. Moten Deceased. To the Editor: On behalf of the Columbian Educational Association and as the chief servant of the body, I wish to pay a brief tribute to the memory of Dr. Lucy E. Moten who was for many years principal of the Miner Normal School. Personally, she was one of my favorite teachers. All of Washington was shocked at the news of her sudden death in New York. This shock was felt most keenly by the members of the Columbian Educational Association the majority of whom are products of her inspirational instruction. Her influence on the schools of Washington, like Tennyson's "brook," will go on forever. We can hear her now urging the young teachers to "Proceed from the Known to the Unknown," as the only true method of instruction. She was known and respected in this country and in Europe as an outstanding educator, unsurpassed in dignity, poise, refinement and culture. Her love of culture lead her to travel extensively. And wherever she went, she reflected the esprit de corps and dignity of the teaching profession. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Her absence made out hearts, the hearts of all Washington, the hearts of the public school system and the hearts of the Columbian Educational Association grow fonder. We revere her memory. M. GRANT LUCAS. Washington, D.C. Thanks—We Shall Try to Do Even Better The excellent dress of your issue of August 31, was very pleasing. The ink was a heavy black, being well distributed over the clean and plain type, making it easy to read without straining the eyes. Accept the commendation and congratulations of one of your constant readers and well-wishers. JEFFERSON H. CLARK. Washington, D.C. home in 1928 was reasonably worth $10,000, and therefore at that time, when there was a fairly normal market for homes, it had a market value of $10,000. Now let us assume that on account of the depression the present market value has dropped to $6,000. Further assume that the present cost of a similar lot, plus the reproduction cost of the house, less depreciation, gives us a value of $6,600. Further assume that this home had a rental value of $100 a month 10 years ago, but now has a rental value of only $50 per month, and that the average rental value during the past ten years has been $75 per month. By capitalizing this average rental value o. the customary basis we would value the home at $7,500. "Now we us add together the three respective values, namely, $6,000 for present market value; $6,600 for reproduction value, and $7,500 for capitalized rental value. Thus we would have an aggregate of $20,100. Dividing this aggregate by three we have a net result of $6,700. Consequently, on this basis, the 'present appraised value' of the home, as fixed by the corporation, would be $6,700." The Community Civic Centers' Band Appeals for Assistance To the Editor: The Community Civic Centers' Band takes this opportunity to inform the public that we have freely and willingly given the services of our hand whenever requested. We have played regularly at the public park concerts for thirteen years, and at the Memorial Day services at Arlington, the annual Firemen's Parade, the District jail, and the government hospitals. These concerts have been given without pay or donations. The public concert given by our band at Franklin Park, on Friday, August 25, concluded our thirteenth annual season of concerts in the public parks of this city. The hearty expression of appreciation and pleasure leads us to believe that the public wishes us to continue these park concerts. Existing conditions compel the band to appeal to their friends and well-wishers, and to the people of our city who are interested in music as an element of education and civic progress, for assistance to equip our band with musical instruments, which we greatly need; music and other necessities to bring our band up to a higher standard. Returns and poor collections from business engagements have not been sufficient to support our organization. For thirteen years we have tried to give the public high class music. We are now compelled to ask the public to help us so that we may continue our work and improve our music. Donations will be gladly received at 1407 Corcoran Street, Northwest. Please make all checks payable to Community Civic Centers' Band. Address all correspondence to C. A. Hicks, secretary, 1407 Corcoran Street, Northwest. (Signed) Community Civic Centers Band, J. E. Miller, Director. HENRY ALLEN BOYD MAKES REPORT TO BAPTIST CONVENTION Publishing Board's Gross Receipts Nearly $300,000 for Past Year CHICAGO, Ill.—Religious literature printed under denominational supervision, was circulated to the amount of more than eleven million copies in 1933, according to the report made this week to the National Baptist Convention of America, by Henry Allen Boyd, secretary, treasurer and manager of the convention's publishing house at Nashville.

The Rev. Mr. Boyd was returned by his board to the position that he has held since the death of his father. They have instructed him for the past three years in succession to make a survey and a personal study of religious needs along literature lines, of the darker nations of the world, but it was not definitely known when this tour would begin. The Rev. J. P. Robinson, of Little Rock, Ark., the chairman of the board, presented the Rev. Mr. Boyd to the convention. He is one of the few fifty-year pastors holding membership, as is the Rev. E. R. Carter, a much-travelled preacher, who has made twenty-five trips to England and three trips to the Holy Land, a member of the publishing board. The Rev. E. H. Borden, who holds titles from many foreign universities, was presented as the new editorial secretary. 1. SCIENCE HALL 2. TENNIS COURTS 3. ESTEY HALL (Dormitory) 4.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1933 Rival National Baptist Conventions Meeting in Memphis and Chicago Sunday School Publishing Board's Report to Be Highlight of Meeting CHICAGO (ANP)—The Eighth Illinois Regiment Armory will be the scene of the meeting of the National Baptist Convention (Boyd Faction), September 5-10, when that organization convenes in Chicago. Special delegations traveling in chartered trains are expected from several points, notably Oklahoma, Tennessee, Louisiana and Arkansas. Dr. S. S. Jones, pastor of Friendship Baptist Church and president of the Illinois Baptists Association, the entertaining body, announces that preparations are completed for giving the delegates a royal welcome. President J. W. Hurse of Kansas City is said to be prepared to fight again for retention of his office. Indications are that he is expected by some of the brethren to retire at this session and the hats of Dr. S. A. Pleasants of Houston, Texas, Dr. S. R. Prince of Texas, Dr. Ernest Hall of Cleveland, the Rev. E. W. White of Baltimore, as well as Dr. C. L. Prince of Denver, brother of Dr. S. R. Prince, are well said to be in the ring. Dr. S. R. Prince is expected to bring in the largest delegation of visitors. The women of the organization are to meet at Ebenezer Baptist Church with Dr. J. H. L. Smith as entertaining pastor. Mrs. M. A. B. Fuller of Texas is president of the women's auxiliary. Numerous speakers, national and local, will appear before the body. There is a noticeable absence this year of suggestions that the two Baptist groups reunite. Henry Allen Boyd of Nashville, head of the Sunday School Publishing Board, is not to have any opposition for his post. His report of the extensive activities of his department is expected to be one of the highlights of the meeting. DOCTORS' HELPERS GET INSTRUCTION AT HAMPTON HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Va.—The recent Doctors' Helpers Institute, which was held at Hampton Institute under the auspices of the Virginia Department of Health, in co-operation with the School of Nursing of Hampton Institute, of which Miss Nina D. Gage is the director, brought together a representative group of women who are interested in the promotion of prenatal work in the following counties of Virginia: Elizabeth City, Cloucester, Isle of Wight, James City, Middlesex, Nansemond, Norfolk, and Princess Anne. Mrs. Emily W. Bennett, E.N., white, supervisor of midwife education for the state department of health, was in active charge of this institute and gave a series of talks and demonstrations covering the following major topics: Prenatal Care, General Nursing Care, Preparation for Confinement, Accidents and Complications of Pregnancy, Keeping Records, Preparation for Labor, Immediate Care of the Baby.

(ANP) Churchgoers and the populace in general are prepared for the coming of the National Baptist Convention, which will be in session here September 5-10. The Rev. Lacey Kirk Williams, pastor of Olivet Baptist Church, Chicago, is president of the organization and a special train is to be run from Chicago to Memphis which will gather incoming Baptists from the East and Northwest before beginning its journey southward. No opposition is visible to the return of Dr. Williams to the post which he has held for so long a period and signs point to a convention thoroughly harmonious. Despite the depression, which at one time threatened the security of the publishing house located at Nashville, Dr. A. M. Townsend's report, as secretary of the Sunday School Publishing Board, is expected to show a good volume of business for the past year as well as present plans for the reduction of the obligations on the property. Among the civic subjects which are expected to occupy the attention of the body, will be the attitude of the convention toward the NRA. Dr. Williams has been asked to throw the support of his organization behind the Negro Industrial League program. Dr. George Haynes of New York is chairman of that organization, Miss Nannie H. Burroughs is a member of the executive committee and John P. Davis and Dr. Robert Weaver of Washington are its active field men. The Sunday School Congress of which Dr. Jernagin of Washington is president, will meet in connection with the National Baptist Convention for the first time in many years.

Ikes, of the Interior Department has written to the N.A.A.C.P. that they are now giving "careful consideration" to a special report on Negro labor at Boulder Dam and in the town of Boulder City which has just been completed. The N.A.A.C.P., in a letter some weeks ago, charged the number of Negro workers on the huge dam had dropped from forty out of a total of 4,000 on the payroll to less than five out of the present force of about 3,000, and that Negroes were not permitted to live in the government-built town of Boulder City.

TWO MEN KILLED IN MD. ACCIDENT Both Fatally Hurt as Car Crashes into Pole at Mount Airy Two men were killed, one instantly, and four other persons cut and bruised when the machine in which they were passengers crashed into a telephone pole on the Cooksville-Onley highway near Mount Airy, Md., Sunday evening. Howard Smith, 22, of Glenwood, Howard County, died instantly of a broken neck, and Rebeccah Miles, 29, Daisy, Md., expired en route to the hospital. Minor injuries were sustained by a quartet of other occupants of the car. Baltimore Smith, of Upper Howard County, driver of the machine, told police that he was forced from the highway by another machine. However, Maryland authorities failed to uncover any evidence to support the allegation and said that the wreckage of the car indicated that Smith had been traveling at an excessive rate of speed. Formal charges against Smith were expected to be lodged following a further investigation by the police. Atlanta Daily Wants Negroes to Take Lower Wage Than Whites Further reason why objections are rising all over the country to the naming of Clark Foreman, Atlanta white man, as economic advisor on Negroes in the Interior Department was cited here this week. The Atlanta Constitution, owned by Clark Howell, uncle of Clark Foreman, has come out editorially for a lower wage for Negroes under the N.R.A. and as a general practice. A representative of the N.A.A.C.P. speaking of the association's protest on Mr. Foreman, said: "This is the best possible example of why we object to Mr. Foreman. He personally is rated as a fine young man, as on fair on the race question as a southerner can be. But Mr. Foreman, no matter how fair he tries to be, cannot stand up for Negro economic justice like a Negro can. The pressure on him is too great. How can we expect an Atlantan, where the most powerful daily paper and the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce have come out for lower wage based on color only, to stand up and fight for equal wages for equal work? "That is what the Negroes want Southern Negro leaders want it as well as northern Negro leaders The masses of the South want it They held a mass meeting in Atlanta and said so in no uncertain language. We do not believe Mr Foreman can think and feel for us We don't think he can function in the pinches—and there will be plenty of pinches. Only a Negro can do this job right and by right we mean right according to Negroes judgment." AUTO HITS BOY, 6 Struck by an auto at Fourth and Pennsylvania Avenue, Russel Trice, 6, of 1718 Eighth Street, received a slight cut over the right eye. Thursday. The machine which hit the boy is reported to have been driven by Thomas Bragg, of the 1400 block of Fifth Street. Chicago or Bust This hike was started up U.S. Highway No. 23 which is really a farmer's convenience. I passed about twenty hitch-hikers before eight-thirty who greeted me, "Hello, fellow, where are you going? Hope you good luck." The farmers and filling station men also hailed me, "Hello, Mister, where are you going?" but few stopped to give my weary feet a rest. visited Ohio State University and Ohio Wesleyan University Observatory and was treated with great courtesy A Flat Tire My feet and legs grew very tired. I could hail no ride so I began to pray that someone going my way would have a flat-tire and it happened. A farmer about 500 yards ahead of me had a puncture and I rushed up to offer my service and got a 23-mile ride as my reward. Many more hours walking and two short rides brought me into Upper Sandusky at eight o'clock in the evening. There were only four colored people in this town, a mother with two children, and a single man, living on opposite sides of the town, but I could find neither. I asked an officer if there was any place where I might stop overnight and he opened the county jail. "There are the lights, there is a table and in there is a bed. You may make yourself comfortable here." Then he proceeded to lock the door. "Just a moment, Sir, you are not going to lock the door, are you?" "Yes." "Well, please let me stand outside a while longer, maybe I can get a ride out as it is not dark yet." He let me out and I lost no time in leaving town. Two fellows who had passed me several times that evening stopped and said in a sympathetic tone, "Looks like you are having a hard time. Hop in and we will take you to the next town." I hesitated because I felt that they had something up their sleeves, or were up to some trick, but I got in. They took me near the town, then cut across the railroad tracks and took me about five miles around the town, and let me out near the highway, saying that the town was just over the hill. Just over the hill I found a large graveyard. It was getting dark. I passed this place in great haste because I didn't trust my imagination. It Happened Again I stopped at three farm houses where there were people on the porches. "Good evening, Mister, what are yer looking for?" I asked them to please let me remain in a hay stack or the barn over night, but the only reply I got was, "Sorry fer yer feller, but we aint in no habit of letting folk stay out there, and there aint no other place around. Maybe the farmer up the way might have a place fer yer." It was 9:45 and quite dark. I looked at the fields on either side of the road hoping to see a clear spot where I might have rested. I soon saw a few glimmering lights ahead and lost no time getting to them. It was a filling station and a small store. There were three men there. I showed them my identifications and pleaded my case. The older of the three asked me, "Have you a cigarette?" "No Sixt." "Do you smoke or do you want a smoke?" "No Sir, I don't smoke." "Then you can sleep in my barn." My heart leaped for joy. He gave me a horse blanket and directed me to a pile of hay in the barn. I did not sleep at all. I heard every rat that moved in the hay: I heard the horses snort; and when the roosters began to crow, I was relieved because I knew that it was the break of dawn. The farmer soon came out. I rolled out of the horse blanket and helped him feed the hogs and chickens and to do the early morning farm work in general, during which time his wife prepared breakfast. Yes, it happened again. A bell rang and he said: "Come on in to breakfast." The table was set for three. I was given a seat at the head and there we ate together. The color of my skin didn't matter. They continued to say: "Eat a plenty, it may be night before you get another feed." I say it happened again because four years ago on my hitch-hike from New Orleans, La., to Howard University, I was caught in a similar position and a farmer and his wife living about 20 miles northeast of Anderson, S.C., sat me down to dine with them and paid no attention to the color of my skin. The second experience recalled the first, so I cried with joy as I moved up the deserted highway. Blistered Foot The soils of my shoes were wearing thin, the day grew hot, my feet ached with pain, I moved on toward my goal and no one stopped to give me a ride. Noon found me in a small town called Fostoria. My feet were so tired that I took 49 cents of my last 65 cents change to buy a pair of keds. I was tired of walking on pebbles that came through the bottom of the worn shoes. I hiked outside the town, put on the keds, and continued the march. At 1:15 a wealthy looking man picked me up and rode me to Perry'sburg, about 11 miles from Toledo, Ohio. All evening I plodded up the highway. Just before I hit the Chicago Pike I got a ride on a car in which there rode with the driver three white girls who were also hitch-hiking to Chicago. They talked very friendly and suggested that we continue together. We caught two other rides together, but at the end of the third ride as it was getting late they were speaking of a camping spot. I bade them "good evening" and started hiking on. They asked me to stay, but I had no desire to be featured in another Scottsboro case. This time I felt the highway softest. Eight twenty-five found me yet nine miles out of a town. No one stopped to give me a lift. I prayed that the moon would continue to shine, I seemed to have gotten a new lease on strength and trotted to town. One Colored Man In this town, Fayette, Ohio, there was but one colored man who was a boot blacker, and he had gone out of town for the night. It was about 10:30, so I lay down on a bench in front of a bus station. Soon an officer came over and welcomed me to the dressing room of a deserted opera house. There I found a round table, several chairs, an oil stove, and two pallets made of cardboard. I spent another sleepless night there. I was brought some bread, coffee, and eggs to prepare my own breakfast on the oil stove, and this I gladly did. Troubles Over After breakfast I saw a freight van standing in the street loaded to the top. I pleaded with the driver to let me ride. He said he couldn't at first, but then he said that if I could hang on somewhere that would be out of his sight, I could. The insurance of the var forbit riders. I rode it into South Bend, Indiana. Here I spent an hour or more going through the Studebaker plant watching the car in the making. Then I climbed back into the van when it was empty and was let out at 37th and State Streets in Chicago at 10:25 p.m. Wednesday, June 28. My saddest experience was that the Wabash Avenue Y.M.C.A. refused me a shower even after I presented letters from Howard University, from Major C. C. Johnson of the Twelfth Street Y.M.C.A. in Washington, and membership cards extending over a period of five years. I was first told to wait about half an hour, then after waiting the half hour, I was told that I arrived on time, but it was then too late. So I went home without the shower.

SUNDAY—Doo Dad Dcresy's alert Georgetown Athletics pulled their first trick from their basket of surprises when they stumped the fast traveling Hillsdale A.C. and stopped them cold, in a Tribune Round-Robin Tournament game, at the Moument Grounds, last Sabbath day. The score was 12-5, and the Georgetown crew was just that much better on the occasion. The defeat, coming at a time when they were enjoying the undisputed leadership of the tourney standing, took quite a lot of the starch out of the fast stiffening Hillsdale outfit. Prior to the clash with Georgetown, the Hillsdales had lost to only one other team in the District or nearby Maryland. The LeDroi' Tigers, with whom the 'Dales have equally shared honors for the season, had defeated them. Bus Frazier, ace of the 'Dale staff during the 1832 campaign now with the west-enders, took the mound against his old mates. The game he pitched was if a most creditable variety, and aided by capable fielding and timely batting, the rangy right-hander had little difficulty, annexing the decision. He gave up only 9 hits, all of which he kept scattered. Testimony to this can be found in the fact that of the total, 4 were issued out to Black, the Hillsdale catch. Eight strike-outs were his lot for the afternoon. ```markdown ``` All Frazier's teammates, with the exception of Bell, third-baseman shared in the offensive efforts of Dorsey's crew. Three pitchers, Jakie Levi, his brother, Marion and Sam Lacy, were victims of the west-end attack.

BROAD ST. PHILADELPHIA, PA. I Have Initiators—But No Competitors The Aztecs Lose SUNDAY—The classiest baseball of the Tribune Round-Robin Baseball Tournament was provided in the meeting of the Aztec A.C. nine and the Anacostia Athletics in the second game of the Sabbath proceedings, on the Monument Grounds, the past week-end. A pitchers' battle from start to finish it was, with the lanky Ossie Stewart, strike-out king of the Anacostians, outpitching the port-sided Price, but losing the verdict 4-2 because of the more alert play of his opponent's supporters. Stewart fanned 16 of the Aztec batters. There is no more nor less to the story than that with the possible exception of mentor due Dick Clark, scintillating second-baseman of the winner.. Only 6 hits were granted by the towering righthander and all of these were scattered over the nine inning route. But the inside offensive baseball of the Aztecs and their ability to take advantage of opportunities afforded by Anacostia miscues denied him the victor he deserved. Clark, 18-year-old find of the southwest aggregation, played one of the flashiest brands of baseball the tournament has witnessed thus far. There were occasions when the youthful Aztec infielder went to his right to bring down ambitious grounders, and there were times when he went to his left to duplicate the feat. There was going back and coming in, there was backing-up and covering, and he took care of it all in major league fashion. Outside of Stewart, Clark was easily the end-man of the show. Price pitched steadily, and accorded creditable support, held his own as a winning pitcher.

BOY FINISHES SECOND IN NAT'L A.A.U.SWIM Maurice Jackson Closes Fast After Poor Start; Negroes in for First Time TROY, N.Y.—Making the last turn in sixth place, Maurice Jackson, swimming ace and captain of the Francis Swimming Team, of Washington, tore down the home-stretch and came within inches of taking first place in the National Junior 100-meter free style championship, at a meet held in the Prospect Pool, here, last Saturday afternoon. Mochan (white), of this city, was the winner with Jackson second. It was the first time in the history of the water sport and in the existence of the Amateur Athletic Union, that colored swimmers have participated in a National A.A.U. championship. Jackson's feat, therefore became especially noteworthy. Two other Negroes, Lloyd Drew and Ernest Marshall, teammates of Jackson on the Francis team and members of the District of Columbia A.A.U., were also entered. They finished fourth and sixth, respectively. It is barely possible that with a better start the colored capital city an might have captured the title. He finished much stronger than any of the five other finalists. Much of the credit due the entry from Francis must be given to John F. Harris, manager of the Francis Pools; Charles R. Drew, the former manager of the Francis Pools, who made it possible for the Francis Club to become members of the District of Columbia A.A.U.; Charles Houston, vice-dean of the Howard University law school; and Captain Frank W. Hoover, general manager of the Welfare and Recreational Association; Attorney James Guy Tyson, and Wilder Montgomery, who drove the boys to the meet. This about writes the swan song for the summer activities at the Francis Swimming Pools since they will close Monday after a most successful summer season. John Howard New Manager of Temple Bowling Alleys John Howard, a recent graduate of Howard University, will manage the Masonic Temple Bowling Alleys this season, according to an announcement by the management of the alleys. All managers of league teams are requested to communicate with Howard at the Temple this week. Teams are being formed for the fall and winter season. Sam's Scripts The Round-Robin Tournament being staged by this department seems to be the talk of the town, so you, dear readers, will forgive me if I am guilty of too frequently mentioning it in this column this week. After all you know, the darned thing is a "brain child" of this writer's, hence the success of it might well justify a display of over-exuberance on his part. In that connection, let me say here, that the individuals who are in any way connected with the affair cannot be praised too highly for the part they have played in making it a huge success. The conduct of the players, the work of the ampire and official scorer and the behavior of the spectators have all played major parts in making a stupendous task seem like just an ordinary undertaking. Three more red hot games scheduled for this week-end. Saturday, Hillsdales and Aztecs; Sunday, Aztecs and Georgetown, and Anacostia and Hillsdale. Nuf sed. *** Our colored "big shot" baseball magnates and players could learn quite a lesson watching some of the games in The Tribune Tournament. This writer would ask that they pick ANY game on the card to see, so that they might learn how these boys—lacking even a paid audience to say nothing of a salary from turnstile receipts as an incentive—play baseball under a NEGRO umpire without gnashing their teeth, pulling hair, kicking dirt and all that other grand stand nonsense, every time he renders a decision. Then, too, working for these boys the umpire gets his money at the end of the game, whether he's BLACK or WHITE. --- Bus Frazier, on the mound for the Georgetown Athletics, Sunday, against his old Hillsdale teammates, had quite a laugh. Besides whiffing eight of the chesty LeDroit Parkers, the west-end ace had the 'Dale sluggers hog-tied. Each delivery looked like some new juitsu trick. * * * * Could you have told by daily newspaper write-ups that little Theima Savoy, who won the Labor Day bicycle sweepstakes for girls, is colored? We dare say, you could not. Incidentally, an older brother of Thelmra's, Welvyn, lost his life on a bicycle. Eight years ago, the elder Savoy child was struck down by a Washington-Baltimore and Annapolis electric train at the crossing at Forty-fourth Street and Dean Avenue, Northeast, and instantly killed. Will somebody please help me figure how I'm going to get out to Chicago to keep from wasting this dollar-ten ticket to the East-West All-Star game, scheduled Saturday. **** They call these fellows who go nearly nutty over the game of golf "bugs." It strikes me that when they let the game—as offered to Negroes in this city—drive them into that category, they're no longer just "bugs," they're full grown, stoop-shouldered, spineless, water-brained ROACHES (all caps). **** TIPS TO YOUNG ATHLETES Don't imitate; follow a style that is naturally your own. Weave in to it the most adaptable points of the other fellow.

HILLSDALES BEAT AZTECS,8-7,IN 12 INNINGS Hughes's Pinch Pitching and Haywood's Hit Win Contest SATURDAY. — Twelve innings were necessary to decide the third game of The Tribune Round-Robin in Baseball Tournament for the independent championship of the city, played last week-end at the Monument Grounds, before a large crowd. The contest, which brought together the co-favorites of the tourney line-up, saw the Hillsdale A.C. nose out the Aztec nine, 8-7. Baseball from the lowest stage of mediocrity to the highest type of brilliancy found its way into the even dozen frames of battle. Errors, fielding gems, fluke hits and extra base bingles shared and shared alike in the afternoon's proceedings. After a poor start in which both teams were guilty of numerous flaws, the game resolved itself into a beautiful pitcher's duel. Two relief men, Hughes, of Hillsdale, and Garland, porters of the Southwest aggregation, fought it out tooth-and-nail during the waning innings with the verdict going to the right-hander. It can be readily said that the victory of the 'Dales was accomplished through the stellar relief hurling of the former Dunbar High School and Government Printing Office flinger. Hughes went to the rescue of Curley Williams in the fifth inning and held the opposition at bay until his teammate, Johnny Haywood, propelled the winning tally across the plate with two out in the twelfth. Haywood's pinch single, which sent Geechie Williams over after the latter had doubled down the third base line and gone to third on an error, might have received the hog end of the credit had it not been for the trusty right arm of the 'Dale relief pitcher. Royals Win Two; Defeat Colesville Tigers, 4-2; 3-0 The Washington Royals who took both ends of the scheduled double-header with the Colesville Tigers, on the latter's diamond, Monday, winning the first 4-2 and coming back to grab the seven innings nightcap, 3-0. Craig and Robinson shared the pitching burden for the winners, the former getting the first decision and the latter holding forth in the shutout affair. Both men were in rare form. Craig giving 8 hits which he kept scattered, and Robinson granting only two. They struck out 12 and 10, respectively.

BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL All-Star Teams Picked for Gala East-West Diamond Tilt Fans Close Four Weeks of Voting; Both Outfit Represent Cream of Talent in Colored Baseball; They Meet in Chicago Sunday Herewith is-presented the results of the four weeks of voting for players to take part in the East-West Diamond Classic, mammoth undertaking of the Pittsburgh Courier and Chicago Defender newspapers, slated to be played at Comiskey Park, Chicago, Ill., Sunday. The balloting was carried on among baseball fans and sports readers throughout the country and proved to be quite popular. The baseball prestige of the East will be defended by the most brilliant representatives of five major clubs in the East-West diamond classic at Comiskey Park in Chicago this Sunday. Winning their berths in an interesting poll of fans which literally combed the nation, the galaxy of star players selected will be welded into a mighty team by John Henry Lloyd Players of the Pittsburgh Crawfords, the Philadelphia Stars, the Homestead Grays, the New York Black Yankees and the Baltimore Black Sox were conceded by fans to be the men to represent the East. Oscar Charleston of the Crawords, Dick Lundy of the Philadelphia 'Stars and Mackey also of Philadelphia—al stellar performers of national renown—led the mighty vote parade which accorded them the first base, shortstop and catching positions, respectively. The esteem in which George Scales, manager of the New York Yankees, was held, was clearly shown by the fans' votes. Seales was given the most diversified vote of any man, receiving 28,347 ballots for the second-base job, 23,549 votes for the third-base post, and 2,259 tallies for an outfield position. The volume of markers received for the second-base birth earned for him a utility infield berth. The final week of the voting marked a drastic shift in the status of the pitchers for the East team. Streeter of the Crawfords and Britt of the Grays continued to hold their own, with Satchlea Paige, Crawford speedball merchant, showing a decided gain. Paige nosed out Hunter, also of the Crawfords, for the third place pitcher's position, with Bill Holland of the New York Black Yanks and Porter Charleston of Philadelphia also making strong bids for fourth and fifth places. 1933 AMERICAN RACING ASSO OVERSEAS MARVIN SALES 394 Here is another chance to get well on a series of digits that will pop out straight.

Power at the bat, speed on the base-paths and color in the field mark the selection of the fans who have participated in the mammpoth poll, which closed Saturday, for popular favorites to represent the West in the brilliant East-West diamond classic with historic Comiskey-Park as its setting Sunday afternoon. With four clubs represented, and with as brilliant array of diamond stars as ever spiked shoes into the turf of a baseball field selected in the nation-wide poll, fans from the land of the Western sun feel that their representatives will prove to be foemen worthy of their steel. Chicago, mighty team of the West, with five selections, leads the list, while Kansas City has four regulars in the running. Nashville garnered two places in the final count, and Cleveland shows a regular outfielder and a utility infielder. Pitching honors went to Willie Foster, greatest southpaw the West has ever produced, with Chet Brewer, lanky Kay See ace rating second honors. Cornelius of Chicago, the kid who was the "jinx" of Crawfords' title hopes, ranks third. Bailey, Nashville's great pitcher, also earned a place. The infield, with the exception of first base, which saw Giles nose out Mule Suttles by less than 500 votes, ran true to form, with Newt Allen getting the call at second. Wells hitting out easily at short, and Radcliffe far ahead of the field at the hot corner. In the outfield, Stearns had little opposition, being followed by Rogers Bankhead, who slipped in ahead of Davis, Redus, and Rogan. Fans, who also figured on re-"Honus Wagner" of the West, as first utility, and named Suttles and Rogan, who is now in the twilight of a brilliant career, as his running mates.

QUINCY ADAMS Director of Physical Education, Armstrong High School, Washington, D.C. FIRST INSTALLMENT Mr. Adams is brother to Cato Adams whose articles, "Trials and Anxieties of a Baseball Coach," appeared in previous issues of The Washington Triathlon, and in Pro Am Athletics in 1915, and from Harvard College in 1925. He began his teaching career at Francis Junior High School in 1927. In 1928, he was promoted to his present position, succeeding gil late issue Newton Miller, son of Prosser"Kelly Miller, of Howard University. "Are you ready, Howard?" "Are you ready, Lincoln?" The referee blows his whistle. It is a supreme moment. The pent-up feelings of the past year are suddenly released and one is brought face to face with the realization that within the coming two hours the pendulum of the fates will swing either to victory or defeat. Oh, the glory of victory! The heroes it produces, the congratulations it calls forth! The supreme happiness and intense satisfaction entained more than repay all the preparation and the strain of a season's work; and besides, the world loves a winner. Four hundred years ago the soldiers of Cortez found the Aztecs of Mexico and the Maya Indians of Yucatan playing football. Other early explorers saw some form of football being played by native tribes in such widely scattered lands as Argentine and India, in the Faroe, Phillipine and Hebrides Islands among the Maoris of New Zealand and the Parana River savages, and the Eskimos of the frozen North. This sport can be traced back to periods of remote antiquity. It is even claimed that the prehistoric Celts of Ireland played football games as a part of their religious rites in worshiping the sun. But the first authentic records concerning football date back to the fifth century B.C. It appears that such a game styled Epikyros, was underway and underfoot two ROUND ROBIN TEAM STANDING Team W.

Quite frequently reports of games and their box-scores are left out of the Tribune. The reasons are many and varied. Chief among them are the faulty methods used by scorers in preparing the reports. Some managers or their representatives make out a box-score of their own which they copy from other papers. There are several different types of box-scores, and unless the one which is copied is identical to that used by us, the record has to be omitted, although the game is usually summarized in a short article. The Tribune wants to publish your news, but it must insist on uniformity. Bear with us and make an effort to assist us in every way possible in this respect. Another common fault is the illegibility of the writing. Not every one of us can write what is known as a "beautiful hand" but most of us can be understood if a little care is exercised.

Even before that the Attic Greeks were daily using arnica on shins made sore by enthusiastic participation in a football game they called Pheninda. Why, 'tis told that one youth became so clever that the state commanded the greatest sculptor of the land to sculp a marble replica of this peerless half-back. This statue was then set up in the principal plaza of Athens. The name of this "triple-threat" expert was Antonica Carista—which differs but little from the way a certain all-American player of today spells his surname, Humph!—talk about football over-emphasis—no present day players get a statue—some not even a diploma. By the time the Romans had conquered Greece in 146 B.C., the Greeks had put into their football the main feature of Rugby—running with the ball. This is proved by the fact that the game was now called "harpaston" from the Greek verb, "to seize"; the implication is clear that the players seized the ball and were in turn seized by the tacklers. Harpaston was played on a large rectangular field by teams of 27 on a side. The game started by a long forward pass from midfield instead of the kick-off that our teams use. That there was plenty of off-side play and holding may be judged from the fact that six judges were used. Barons Outplayed but Win Over Oriole Nine Although held to four hits, the Washington Barons gained the verdict over the Washington Orioles in a Sabbath Day contest, at Sixth and L Streets, Southeast, this week end past. Tyler, of the Barons, led both teams at bat, accounting for three of his team's total off the offerings of Jenkins, Oriole slabman. Seven hits were amassed by the losers, one a home run by Ford, catcher COMING GAMES Saturday, Sept. 9 Hillsdale vs. Aztecs. (3 p.m.) Sunday, Sept. 10 Georgetown vs. Aztecs (1 p.m. sharp).

Georgetown Eleven Plans Big 1933 Season The Georgetown A.C. football team management has a surprise in store for players and fans alike. It has announced the acquisition of the Green Valley Park as the site for staging its home games during the coming campaign. By leasing this spot the managers and coaches of the west-end organization contend, a step nearer to giving Washington what it desires in the form of first class gridiron entertainment has been taken. The team practices every day at the Francis Junior High Stadium, Twenty-fifth and N Streets, Northwest. Old and new candidates are urged to fall in line as soon as possible because of the strenuous schedule in view. Teams desiring games should write R. Beason, 1413 Twenty-eighth Street, Northwest.

Theatrically Speaking With ANDY ANDERSON HELLO, WASHINGTON! From the hospitable shores and borders of the mid-Western states of Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois, your little Andy sends his greetings. This little tour on the theatrical wheel is not going to be confined entirely to theatricals, for there is infinitely much more out here to be written about, and believe me, there is plenty! At the Fair From within the confines of the great World's Fair I send you my first rambling remarks. You really ought to see this fair. It is stupendous, gigantic, marvelous, breath-taking, and, well, I could go on using endless adjectives, but what's the use? It's great!" Out here at the Fair we find, as usual some evidence of our good colored brethren, for on the midway we have "Plantation Follies," a carnival type of stage show, with Hardtack Jackson (you've heard of him). Then in addition to that we have an entire African village, including the savages who infest and inhabit them, doing their various stuffs for the edification of the throngs that teem through the grounds. Then there is another evidence of the good old colored brother in the novel presentation of the original "Pop-eye," a young colored man who hails from Atlanta, Ga., and who goes about thrusting out his very large eye, far beyond the confines for which nature intended it, and apparently seems to think nothing of it. He projects his eyeball a full inch and a half beyond his normal eye. The Fair holds everything within (and some things without) the range of human imagination, and any attempt to tell you about it in a column would be foolish. So away with it. I might publicly thank Claude A. Barnett, my A.N.P. mentor, for that official's press pass to the Fair, which carried me (without expense) into everything out there, including that thrilling sky-ride. Chicago But back to Chicago. Visiting the Regal Theatre, as the guest of Manager Harry Ascher, I found the thrilling songbird of the stage, Adelaide Hall, appearing at that house, and how little Adelaide did "go to town" with "Lazy Bones." Their screen offering was the breeziest thing Lee Tracy ever did. "The Nuisance." Whenever this flicker comes to our town, go to see it. It's immense. For variety around Chicago we suggest the Grand Terrace, located on the Street of Streets, South Parkway, and incidentally let me tell you that this is the finest street in America. No Negro could ever live on a finer boulevard than this magnificent stretch of road which goes endlessly, it seems, into indefinite Southside space. It is on this street that we find those excellent city tennis courts, the real estate business of Congressman Oscar Dreisert, the Regal Theatre, the Savoy Ballroom, and many other noted spots. The Regal, on Saturday night, was the gathering place of many celebrities who volunteered their services in a benefit show for sweet charity, and the Chicago Urban League. Among them were Cab Calloway and his orchestra, Adelaide Hall, Amos n' Andy, radio stars; one of Paul Ash's musicians, Billy Higgins and Joe Byrd, and many others. And may I say a word of thanks to Manager Jackson of the good old Vincentes Hotel, my stopping STRAND 2 Blocks from Suburban Gardens DEANWOOD, D.C.

The service was super-excellent, and I got everything I wanted just like I wanted it. To any Chicago-bound folks I recommend the Vincennes.

Once ye En route to Indianapolis we passed one of the most beautiful spots in the Hoosier State, Culver, Ind., where one of the most beautiful of North American lakes forms a setting like a jewel amid a background of majestic green woods, with canoes and other boats decking the lake surface like emblems of precious stones and jewelry. And let me tell you, there is something about the sight of those peaceful Indiana farmers and contented looking sheep and cattle which nestle on the foliaged hills, which really makes one long for the simple life, out in the quiet spaces of nature. (But I seem to be running away from my point.) Back to Indianapolis. Indianapolis has two or three theatres, but it is more famous as a birthplace of notables. Here is where Noble Sissl was born, and they still tell you how Noble returned home for the first time after gaining renown, in a massive luxurious car, with his liveried chauffeur, and rode in state down Indiana Avenue, as a gaping populace stared in amazement and wonder. Here is where Col. Joseph Ward was born, to later make his name as the head of Uncle Sam's Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee. Here is where Madame C. J. Walker first birthed her great beauty preparation idea, and put it to work. But the old town ain't what it used to be, if you get me. The best theatre is the Walker, located on the ground floor of the Madame Walker Building on Indiana Avenue, which incidentally is "the parade street." of the city. Downtown last Thursday night, Cab Calloway was feature, and crowds stood in the streets around the dance hall trying to catch the strains of the Calloway music.

However, the white people out here are very kind and friendly to you. And so are the local citizens. I have been most pleasantly received by several local folks, including Attorney F. B. Ransome, head of the Madame Walker interests; Attorney Henry L. Richardson, member of the state legislature; Guy U. Blaine, local Elk notable; and many others not forgetting the very congenial Magnus P. Stewart, editor of the Indianapolis Recorder, a bustling colored weekly of no little influence. I'll tell you more about these things later, but meanwhile I hope that the Western Front of D.C. is holding up; hope that the Howard amateur nights, the Three Keys, the Lincoln Theatre, etc., are all going great guns. BROADWAY OFFERS PICTURE ON DOMESTIC HAPPINESS Are domestic happiness and professional success compatible? Does a man continue to love his wife when her salary pays the bills? In "Ann Carver's Profession," a Columbia picture coming to the Broadway Theatre for Sunday and Monday, September 10-11, a young husband is so overshadowed by his brilliant and famous wife, that his friends scorn him and call him, behind his back, "Mr. Ann Carver." Gene Raymond is the unhappy man. Fay Wray the noted wife. Is it possible that their marriage can be happy? Or is domestic tragedy inevitable? Is a woman's place merely in the home? Edward Buzzell, the director, believes this story is one of the most significant yet written for the screen in that it deals with problems faced by all professional women.

JOHN LARKIN is expected to swing back into busy days at the studios again with the settlement of the studio strike which has had everything tied up.

Among these are "Sporting Blood," "Alexander Hamilton," "Stranger in Town," "Black Beauty," and "Gabriel Over the White House." Collier's Article on 'Darky' Sharecroppers Draws Fire NEW YORK—An article about cotton in Collier's magazine for August 26, by Owen P. White, in which the word "darky" is used twelve times to describe the sharecroppers in the South, has drawn a protest from the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The N.A.A.C.P. letter dealt mostly with the failure of Mr. White to tell the whole truth about the condition of the sharecroppers. The writer painted the Sith as "Utopia for the darky," since the govern- ER T. THEATRE BEGINNING SEPTEMBER 10 NDED IT— BACK AGAIN! BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL ment is paying cotton farmers to plow under cotton. He stated also that the agreements between the owners and the tenants were drawn to protect the owners in the "tisky business" of cotton farming and that the plantation owners "would protect" Negro tenants and see that they got everything coming to them under the agreements. The N.A.A.C.P. letter called sharecropping worse than coole labor and declared the owners had never protected their tenants and probably would not start to do so in 1933 The author of the article asserts that Negroes raise ninety per cent of the cotton in Mississippi and fifty per cent of all that is raised in the South, but despite this, he did not talk to a single Negro farmer, securing all his information about how "happy" how "shiftless," and how "pleasure-seeking" the Negroes were, from white plantation owners who entertained him on their verandahs.

William L. Chenery, editor of Collier's has written the N.A.A.C.P. that the magazine does not desire to insult any race and usually refers to Negroes as colored people, but Mr. White's article was in the language of the people with whom he talked. The editor said also that he knew sharecropping conditions were not ideal, but that the article was intended to show only the effect of the government's plow-under campaign.

Pappa Hoskins's face was red, and ran with sweat. "She can't do it, Sam, I tell you!" he cried. "She can't run out on me like this. Her contract—" Sam's voice grew hard. "When was the last time you looked at that contract, Pop?" he asked. Pappa Hoskins floundered. He said into the phone, "Wait a minute." He dug down into a drawer of his desk and pulled out a sheaf of legal-looking documents. Sorting them out, he picked up the one on which Nita's name was inscribed, opened it, and glanced through the contents. All the wind seemed to have gone out of him when he picked up the receiver again. He was object and in a state of mental misery. His voice was soft and apologetic, and his manner considerably tempered. "Well," said Sam, "how about it? I was right, wasn't I? Nita won't be running out on you if she quits tomorrow." Pappa Hoskins gulped a feeble admission of his error. "But what the devil am I going to do?" he said. "I had no idea Nita's contract was about to run out. I never thought she wouldn't renew with me if it did run out. Now I'm really in a mess. I've got nobody to take her place. I've got no name to put up in the lights. I've got nobody to draw the crowds." Sam Freeman chuckled. "You'd make a pretty hot blues singer yourself, Pop," he drawled, "at the rate you're going now. Snap out of it, old boy! The world hasn't come to an end, just because Nita's found herself a Marquis." "But what am I gonna do, Sam? There ain't another blues singer in the country that could pack em in like Nita." "You just sit tight, Pop. I'll be up your way about noon and I'll bring you something good. There's a little kid I know—" "Her name," he explained an hour or so later, "is Starling Grant. Look her over." Pappa Hoskins surveyed the girl before him with a keenly critical eye. He saw a slim, tall, fair-skinned child of perhaps twenty years. Her hair was raven-black, her eyes sad and dark, her lashes like curved black needles. He got up from his desk chair and walked around her, cigar in hand, making his appraisal. In form and figure she seemed to suit his fastidious taste. "But," he demanded, "can she sing?" Sam Freeman fished his mind for superlatives. "Her voice is grand!" he said. "It's beautiful. It rings true. It has depth. It has feeling. It has that captivating little huskiness that makes the men go wild." "Let's hear her," he commanded. "We'll go into the next room, where there's a piano." They crowded into the cluttered studio which opened off the lavish office, and Sam Freeman settled down before an ancient and dust-bound instrument. He struck a "Lazy River" and "St. Louis Blues." She sang them with depth and meaning and an undercurrent of soulful, sadness in her voice, sang them as no one had ever heard them sung before. Pappa Hoskins's beam turned into a smile of satisfaction. He lit a fresh cigar, and filled the room with rich blue smoke. Starling went on singing. She sang "Lone-some Lover" and she sang "Stormy Weather," but right there Pappa Hoskins held up his hand. "Sam," he said, "you win. I'll believe every word you say after this. The girl's a wonder." "I knew it!" Sam declared, "Starling, honey, you're made! Pappa Hoskins is gonna sign you up, right here and now. He's going to give you a contract for one month. He's going to give you the same salary he gave Nita Alden. And when the month is up, he's either going to give you a hefty raise—or fire you. Am I right about that, Pop, or am I right?" Pappa Hoskins gulped. "Sam," he had to admit, "It looks as though you're right." CHAPTER II. Someone knocked on the dressing-room door. "Who is it?" Starling called. "It's Pop, Star. I've got someone here who wants to see you." "Wait just a minute, then." Hastily Starling straightened up the little cubby-hole, a room, then threw a wrap about her over the thin costume which she wore in the club's floor show. "Now you may come in, she said. Pappa Hoskins pushed the door open and stepped in, his abundant with dwarfing the furniture in the tiny room. Behind him was a tall, youthful, dark-skinned young man, suave, well-dressed, and handsome. He took off his hat as he entered the room. "This," Pappa Hoskins said by way of introduction, "is Rob Berry—you know, the Mad Baron of Blab. He wants to talk to you for one of his Intimate Interviews. Do you mind?" Starling shook her head and smiled. "I don't mind at all," she said, "and it'll be great fun." "Then I'll just leave you two alone. Be sure you're not late for the show at eleven." "Don't worry, Pop. I'm never late." Starling eased the door to a close behind him, then smiled at Rob. As suddenly as her smile had come it vanished, and she turned mockingly business-like. "Just what do you want to know, Mr. Berry?" Rob looked at her, startled, for a moment, then sat down, pulled out a notebook and pencil, and assumed an equally professional manner. "You've read the series of Intimate Interviews I've been running recently in my column, haven't you?" he asked. "Yes, of course. I always read your column." Then you know just what I want. Anything about yourself will do—where you were born and why, how you grew up, your hobbies, your love affairs, your height, weight, measurements—the sort of stuff that people are interested in." Starling considered inquiringly: "Well," she began in a tone that was tinged with the mock-heroic, "I was just a little country girl who came to the Big City. Not so many years ago I used to make mud-pies and play house and go down to the pasture every evening to bring up the cows for milking. I used to ride horses bareback, tend to chickens, plant vegetables and flowers, steal grapes, and shiny up the sides of trees to shake the apples down. Oh, I was quite a scamp! "Then my folks decided that I should go away to school, and they sent me here. I went to Columbia two years, and that's where I had my first serious love affair. I met a chap named Kob Berry...." Rob looked up with a quiet grin, but pretending not to notice him, she went on with her story: "Rob liked me a little, I think, but he had so many other girls that I didn't stand much of a chance. He was terribly kind to me, though. After graduation he introduced me to Sam Freeman, and Sam not only taught me how to use my voice, but got me my first big chance—right here." "That's interesting, Miss—Miss Grant..." Starling agreed. "It does," she admitted, "after all those nights out under a moon—" "And there's no reason at all why I should ask you these silly questions, Star. I could write a book about you without a single one. I feel I know you just that well." He folded up the notebook and settled back into his chair, gazing at her. "You're looking better every day," he said. "How are things going with you here?" She smiled. "Everything's perfect so far," she said. "I had a contract for a month. The time is up tonight, but I'm sure Pop will keep me on. Sam Freeman's handling all my business; he's probably made the arrangements already." "That's great, honey. I'm glad to see you getting along so well." He offered her a cigarette, then lit one for himself. Someone rapped on the door. "First call, Miss Grant. You're wanted on the stage." Starling jumped up. "I've got to fix my make-up, Rob," she said. "You'll excuse me, won't you?" "Of course. But how about later on tonight? Could I meet you—take you home, perhaps?" "If you want to, Rob." "Then I'll hop down to the office and get this story written. I'll be back in time to catch you coming off the stage." "All right. I'll be waiting." As Starling finished her last number that night amidst a thunder of applause, someone pushed a note into her hands. It was from Sam Freeman. It requested that she come to Pappa Hoskins's office. "Come up at once," it said, "Important." Starling went. She was sure that Pappa Hoskins had a new contract read; for her signature, Sam Freeman would have arranged it all by now. But as she stepped into the lavish office-room, she sensed that something had gone wrong. The room was blue with cigar smoke, and in the midst of it Sam and Pappa Hoskins were arguing. Starling could only hear brief snatches of what they said, but they aroused grave apprehensions in her mind. "I can't use two blues singers," Pappa Hoskins was saying. "That's certain." "Then why not just keep Starling? She's been pulling them in for you all this month. She's worked up a following all her own." There was a moment of silence, then Pappa Hoskins's voice again. "I like Star all right," he said, "but I still think Nita's the better bet. She's gotten a lot of publicity by marrying that bogus Marquis and then divorcing him, and the people will come to see her just for that." Starling drew a quick breath. Nita divorced! There had been nothing in the papers about it. Why, it was only a month ago that she had gotten married. Pappa Hoskins looked up and saw her at that instant. "Is—is Nita—divorced?" she asked timidly. Sam stepped forward to explain. "She isn't yet," he said, "but will be tomorrow, by one of those Mexican courts that have no residence requirements. That Marquis she married—he had no more title and no more money than I have. We're trying to keep the whole thing quiet and break it to all the papers in the morning. It'll be great publicity for all of us." "Oh! Then she'll be coming back here—to work?" "Pop wants her to." Pappa Hoskins arose to defend himself. "I haven't anything against you, Star," he said. "You've done great work for me this last month or so. But Nita will draw the crowds if she comes back here. They'll flock in from everywhere, just to see her—the girl who married a Marquis and divorced him a month later. Can't you understand?" Starling nodded unhappily. "Yes," she said. "I guess—I understand——" She turned slowly and left the smoke-filled room. Outside she ran into Rob, who had been waiting to take her home. "What's the matter, honey?" he asked, startled. "You're crying!" Starling wiped her eyes and told him briefly what had happened. "Oh Rob," she cried, "what shall I do?" Rob looked down at her a moment in compassion, but then he caught himself up quickly. His arms loosened; he snapped his fingers. "That's a real story!" he cried. "It'll scoon the town! Wait here a minute—I'll be back. I gotta telephone." Starling watched him as he vanished into the night. The same strange feeling that had held her in its grip when she first came to New York engulfed her now. Once again she was all alone, in such a big city, and without a single real friend...

At the close of the meeting there will be a brief review by the officers of the association in regard to what has been done toward securing a high school for colored children. Henry C. Brooks, president, will preside. PARKER-GRAY SCHOOL The public schools of the city have re-opened with the largest enrollment in the history of the schools.. Text-books will be issued to those pupils who hold receipts for books turned in to the school board last spring upon the presentation of these receipts to their teachers in the schools on the 7th of September. Pupils who have no such receipts will have to furnish reasonable evidence that they turned in text-books at that time to the board and if this is done they will be issued receipts and textbooks. Those pupils who do not hold receipts and cannot furnish such evidence will purchase their books at the school, paying the regular retail price for them. All pupils applying for books and presenting a receipt must at the same time present the rental price for the books, which is $1.50 for elementary grades and $2.00 for the high school. No pupil will be issued rental books until the rental price is paid in full. There will be no credit extended in connection with rental of textbooks whatever. Any pupil who does not have receipts and has books which they would like to turn in may do so and receive receipts for them. Parents whose children receive rental books will be responsible for the care and return of such books in accordance with an agreement which will be sent out to them from the school when the books are issued. These agreements are to be signed by the parents and returned promptly to the school. Failure to return such agreement properly signed will forfeit the right to participate in the rental scheme any further. This is the first time in the history of the schools this plan has been in operation.

SIXTEEN YOUNG MOTHER KILLS MATE WHO SLASHED HER Mrs. Geneva Lee Claims She Has no Knowledge of Stabbing Husband With her right arm in a sling, Mrs. Geneva Lee, 24, of 1513 Fourth Street, Northwest, mother of three children, sat in the witness chair at the District Morgue, Wednesday afternoon, and dispassionately told how she had been slashed with a butcher knife by her husband, Morris Lee, 26, for whose death she was held for the action of the grand jury. Lee died at Freedmen's Hospital from a knife thrust in the back which punctured the right lung, 10 minutes before noon, Sunday. The couple had cut each other in an altercation at their home, Saturday night. Although composed on the stand, Mrs. Lee completely broke down during the 15 minutes the coroner's jury used to decide her fate. She was comforted by her mother and two sisters as she sobbed in the office of the morgue. Everything Hazy The young mother disclaimed any knowledge of having stabbed her husband, stating that everything that happened after he slashed her on the arm and leg as she lay on the floor was "somewhat hazy." According to Mrs. Lee's testimony, the couple had been separated for about a month, but Lee had moved his trunks back to the Fourth Street address on the day before the tragedy. "He offered me some money," declared the witness. "I told him to keep the money and get another room as I did not need it. I had been doing some mending and went to the sewing machine to continue it. He asked me again to take the money, and I told him that I did not want it. "He grabbed the butcher knife," she continued, "and started toward me saying 'What do you mean, you don't want me no more?' He started cutting on me and I fell back screaming. Everything happened so quickly that I do not hardly remember what took place after that." Mrs. Lee was questioned by a juror whether or not she remembered stabbing her husband. Igncrant of Stabbing Her reply was, "I only know what they told me. I don't remember. I did not know that I had stabbed him until they told me so the next day at the hospital." Mrs. Lee was preceded to the stand by her mother, Mrs. Sarah Brown, of the same address, who told the coroner's jury that she is the mother of nine living children. Mrs. Brown stated in part: "Around 11 o'clock, I went to the second floor of my house to rest. While resting I hear Geneva screaming for me to come there. I jumped off the bed and ran up stairs without putting on my shoes. When I got into their room, I was horrified and could not move. I stood as one in a trance. He (Lee) raised off of Geneva who was on the floor and glared at me. Assaults Mother-in-law "As he started to run out of the room, he grabbed a glass and threw it at my head. Geneva started out of the room and I followed her down the steps from their room on the third floor, but I did not see her strike at him with the knife." According to testimony by officers, Mrs. Lee was said to have picked up the butcher knife her husband dropped as he ran out of the room and stabbed him as he rushed down the stairs. Mrs. Brown also gave a dramatic recital of how she attended her daughter who was bleeding profusely from her wounds, one on the arm which severed an artery, and another on the right leg. The mother had been advised by Dr. A. M. MacDonald, acting coroner, that she did not have to testify unless she desired. But Mrs. Brown told the coroner that she wished to make a statement. Miss Faye Brown, a sister of the accused woman, told of being attracted by her mother's creams, attracted by her mother's screams, steps, but he did not say anything, she testified. Miss Ruby Barber, a second cousin of Mrs. Lee, who lives on the first floor of the house, stated that she met Lee coming down the steps as she rushed out on hearing Mrs. Brown's screams. "He ran into me and knocked me down," she stated. "I asked him what was the matter. He said, "I have just killed her, and ran on out into the street." Screams Attract Officers Officers R. L. Manning and Charles C. Corwin, of the Second Precinct, happened to be cruising in the neighborhood when they were attracted by the screams and the large crowd which had begun to gather in front of the house.

Lee, the wounded man turned out to be, was taken to the hospital in a passing car, and practically "passed out" on the way. Officer Manning testified. Mrs. Lee was taken to the same hospital by two men unknown to the officers, but was later transferred to Gallinger. Drs. Maurice M. Gordon and T. C. Simmons, of the Freedmen's medical staff, testified that Lee was in a critical and semi-conscious condition when he arrived and was unable to speak. Detective Sergeant Walter S. Beck, of the Homicide Squad, who investigated the incident, told a story which corroborated that told by the accused, the mother, and the two policemen.
