THE FASHION SHOW DUKE ELLINGTON and IVA ANDERSON are just friends, nothing else. Dame rumor had it that they were engaged. Miss Anderson who is a torch singer with Duke's band, denied that she was to become the next bride of the jazz master. In the meantime Mrs. Edna Ellington, wife of the orchestra leader, came forward with a statement that "there has never been any hint of divorce on the part of Ellington and myself." VISITOR OF SICK FRIEND BECOMES HOSPITAL PATIENT While visiting a friend confined at Freedmen's Hospital, Miss Viola Moore, 30, of 1465 Columbia Road, Northwest, slipped and fell on a flight of steps, Sunday evening. In the emergency ward she was found to have a sprained left ankle, which was bound in adhesive tape.

Grooming Local Man Meanwhile Mr. Bryant is still undetermined as to who shall feel the axe, or take the dismissal, himself or his wife, but one of the two will have to leave the government ranks. It is understood that a probable extension will be granted Mr. Bryant until after 30 days, during which time he can decide what his course will be. At the same time local influential postal workers are grooming a Washington man to fill the post, in the event that Mr. Bryant's retirement will not mean the end of the job, and they are preparing to swing their influence behind this man, and also that of the National Alliance of Postal Employees. The name of the man chosen is being withheld from publication, at the present time, but he is understood to be a member of the Alliance, and one who is well qualified to fill the place. PLAN IS TO CLOSE PLANT IN WINTER Miss Burroughs to Tour Country with Players to Raise Funds By NANNIE H. BURROUGHS During the depression the National Training School for Women and Girls will be open during the spring, summer, and fall months and the students in the junior high school, high school and junior college will spend the three winter months in their homes. This will cut the cost of operating fifty per cent. A The Children's Department, which is a new venture, will operate the year Miss Burroug... round (even during the depression), beginning April 15, 1934. This decision was reached during the week of September 18. The announcement is a surprise to some, regret and disappointment to some others, food for thought for many, satisfying and stimulating to those of great faith and courage enough to find a way or make one in a crisis. We have held long conferences with trustees and friends. We are attempting a most revolutionary thing in education, but those who think the plan through will see the necessity and wisdom and practicality of it. Here are the facts: The mounting prices of fuel and food make it impossible for us to operate unless we increase our tuition and board. Our fuel bill last year was over $2,000. Under rising prices it will be more this year. Our income from individuals, churches, and organizations has been cut seventy-five per cent. Contributions are too small and irregular to be on during the winter. People are interested but they simply haven't the money to give. We have applications and requests from more than 300 students but over two-thirds of these are begging for help. They are asking for everything from full scholarships to one-half of their expenses. We do not have a scholarship fund or work to offer them—in fact, girls can do very little to earn their expenses. Many of our former students could not secure employment this summer. $20,000 Budget Needed Our budget requires an income of at least $20,000 from all sources. After a most careful check-up, we see about one-half of the (Continued on page 2) Although suit was filed for a divorce last week against his wife by Charlie Johnson, 1827 Oregon Avenue, Northwest, it has been learned this wee: by The Tribune that the action by Mr. Johnson was no doubt premature and alleged charges against Mrs. Lulu Clark Johnson, his wife, will be withdrawn. Much apprehension is being felt here in connection with the position of the office of assistant chief clerk-at-large of the Railway Mail Service, at present held by Emory A. Bryant, Jr., of this city. It is feared that the Postoffice Department may decide to abolish the office entirely, thus depriving the Negro race of its last and only official position in the supervisory branch of the Postoffice Department. Wife is Teacher Even if the department is not abolished, there is much trepidation because of the fact that Mr. Bryant will come within the scope of the "married persons clause" of the economy law, and will be forced to leave the service because his wife is also employed in the government service. Mrs. Bryant is a teacher at the Miner Teachers' College. When questioned by the local correspondent, W. L. Donalson, deputy second assistant postmaster general, speaking in the absence of Second Assistant Howes, said that "at present nothing definite has been contemplated for that office."

Dr. Emmer to Address Conventio Howard Secretary is Guest of Honor at Elaborate Banquet CHICAGO—Colored legionaires literally by the hundreds, either in their blue uniforms trimmed with gold or their jaunty service caps atop their civilian outfits, were definitely in evidence this week as the American Legion opened its fifteenth convention. The importance of the session itself, the additional attraction of the "A Century of Progress" and the fact that the convention was being held in Chicago, all served as drawing cards, so that the largest Negro attendance ever noted at a legion convention is reported Post is Host The George L. Giles Post, Chicago's premier legion outfit, was host to the Negro legionaires, whether they came as members of colored posts, as delegates from mixed posts, or merely as visitors, and right royal hosts they proved to be.

Schuldt, after arguments on a motion to dismiss were heard in Police Court, Tuesday morning of this week. Ferguson and Ward are the two youths who were taken into custody by police of the Second Precinct while in the act of picketing the Ninth and S Streets branch of the Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company. Signs advocating "Buy where you can work; no Negroes employed here," were borne by the pair. Police held that these signs were excessive in size and of an advertising nature, thereby requiring a permit to license their use. Counsel for the youths, B. V. Lawnett, W. H. Hastie and E. P. Lovett, coattended that the language of the regulations under which the arrests were made did not sufficiently cover the case to justify prosecution by the government. Mr. Lovett conducted the defense argument and attacked the legality of the arrest with a fervent vigor. In addition to taking advantage of a loophole in the code's definition of the word "sign" and ridiculing the idea that the placard displayed by the defendants advertised anything, Mr. Lovett presented evidence to show that the intent behind the adoption of these (Continued on page 3) ett Scott Fiss America on Race PETER H.

Explosion Victims to Leave Hospital Soon Miss Catherine Bogle, 35, of 4705 Dix Street, Northeast, and Wilbur Coates, 25, chauffeur of W. Ernest Jarvis, who were burned several weeks ago when a gasoline stove exploded on Mr. Jarvis's yacht, at Churchton, Md., are expected to be able to leave Freedmen's Hospital in a few days. Both have been confined to the institution since the accident, after having saved themselves more serious burns by jumping over the side of the boat into the water. Miss Bogle had burns of the face, neck, legs, hands, and left shoulder. Coates was burned about the face, neck, and hands. first Negro an Legion Question Scores Mobs; Asks Complete Protection of Life, Liberty platform of an American Legion convention lin behalf of colored veterans Bright and early Monday morning the Bugle Drum and Bugle Corps called for Colonel Ward and Dr. Scott and gave them military escort over to the stadium where President Roosevelt was speaking to the assembled legionaires. After a brief parade down South Parkway with the two guests in an auto in the center, while the corps with flags flying and trumpets blowing led the way, the entire group was bundled into a bus and went to the stadium. Perhaps one of the greatest distinctions which has yet come to a Negro veteran was accorded Colonel Ward when at one of the regular sessions Commander Johnson introduced him from the platform as the commander of Hospital No. 91. The assembled hosts gave the colonel a warm welcome. Scott Speaks At the banquet at the Eighth (Continued on Page 3) PROSECUTION DELAYED BY DIPLOMATS International Rule Prevents Arrest of Alleged Attempted Rapist The office of General Herbert B. Croshy, Commissioner of the District of Columbia, advised The Tribune shortly before noon today (Thursday) that information in the case against Robert Sterwa (white attache of the Spanish Embassy), charged with assault by Ollie Rice, attractive olive-complexioned colored servant girl, had just been forwarded to the Department of State for action by that jurisdiction. Diplomatic immunity from arrest has delayed prosecution of an employee of the Spanish Embassy on the complaint of a pretty 22-year-old colored girl, Ollie Rice, of 1774 U Street, Northwest, who charges Robert Sterwa (a reputed Frenchman) with assault and attempted rape. Sterwa is a cook in the employ of the Spanish government. According to the information received by The Tribune, the apprehension of the white man on the accusations of Miss Rice, has thus far been thwarted because of an international understanding which prohibits the prosecution of attaches or employees of foreign governments by a host nation. Sterwa is therefore still at liberty while the allegations are being forwarded to the government in Spain. The girl, a servant at 2306 Massachusetts Avenue, Northwest, the residence of Cesareau Bernaldo de Quiros, an artist, told The Tribune that the attempted attack was perpetrated at that house, last Wednesday night. Sterwa, she states, came there seeking some silverware which belonged to the Embassy and which had been loaned to her employer for use at a dinner party the previous night. Employer Disbelieves Girl Finding her alone in the house, Miss Rice avers, the white cook made advances and when rebuffed resorted to violence in an effort to seduce her. The pair fought at length, Miss Rice says, and she was severely beaten about the body. When interviewed by a Tribune reporter, Miss Rice was obviously suffering intense pain, which she (Continued on Page 2) STUDENTS HEAR BASEBALL GAME Radios Broadcast World Series in School to Combat Truancy The faculty of the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School voted to humanize the school for the opening game of the world series, not only to place a premium upon faithful attendance by co-operative students but to combat trenchancy among those who may wish to go elsewhere to listen in. Five radios were placed about the building and all students desiring to hear the opening game were permitted to do so. Further to equip students to enjoy leisure wholesomely, Mr. B. F. Sewell explained to his section of all girls certain phases of the game which would enable them better to enjoy the broadcast. Mr. O. J. Burke explained to his section a method of keeping baseball scores. Records Show National Benefit Has Salvage Value of Million Company Has $217,552 in Cash in 9 States in Addition to Balfour Apartments Here Listed at $400,000 as Well as Mortgages and Other Assets Washington Press Club Selects Its Officers The Washington Press Club composed of newspaper men of the District of Columbia, organized for the purpose of improving their journalism and advancing their standard of ethics, became a reality, Saturday night, with the adoption of a constitution and the election of officers. This done, those present proceeded to elect their officers. Those given office, willingly or unwillingly, were Trezvant W. Anderson, moving, spirit behind the organization, president; West A. Hamilton, vice president; E. W. Baker, secretary; James B. Murphy, treasurer. The latter was swept into the job as money tender despite his night, although he has been present at the two previous meetings. UNDERTAKER SUES FOR $50,000 Refused Passage, Charges Company With Color Discrimination Charging that he had been discriminated against solely because of his color when refused a seat in an airplane from Atlantic City to Washington after having paid $9.82 for the transportation, John T. Rhines, of 302 I Street, Southwest, undertaker, filed suit for $50,000 Monday against the Eastern Air Transport, Inc., 808 Fifteenth Street, Northwest. The declaration, which was in five counts, was filed through Attorney Jesse W. Lewis, Edward A. Beaubian and Felford V. Lawson, jr. In the first count, Mr. Rhine sets out that he presented himself at the Atlantic City depot to board a plane August 21, 1932, but was "unlawfully and wrongfully" allowed to enter the plane. For the humility, inconvenience and delay to which he was subjected, Mr. Records Show N Has Salvage Company Has $217,552 in to Balfour Apartments as Well as Mortgag Contrary to public notions, it has been found here, upon examination of the records of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, and the actual reports of the receivers themselves, that the defunct insurance firm has a potential salvage value of almost a million dollars, according to John T. Risher, former president of the company, in a statement to the Associated Negro Press last week. Mr. Risher pointed out to the A.N.P. that the reports of the receivers, Clark and Bryan, both white, expressly stated that the firm owned in actual cash, currency, amounting to $217,528, which was located in nine states where the company has done business. These states, together with the sum of cash money actually on hand in the company's name are: Alabama, $3,510.34; Arkansas, $14,206.38; Georgia, $90,644.60; Maryland, $15,770.39; Ohio, $39,780.42; South Carolina, $28,448.82; Tennessee, $15,049.39; Texas, $29,94.44; and Virginia, $843.02.

W. Robert, Jr., white, assistant secretary of the Treasury, by the Interdenominational Alliance following a special meeting of that group on Tuesday morning when a special committee was appointed to confer with council in regards to the "nigger speech" made by Robert last Monday over Station WMAL. A committee consisting of the following members of the Alliance were appointed to discuss with Attorney Charles Houston, vice dean of the Howard Law School and member of the District Board of Education; and Perry W. Howard the necessary legal steps to be taken in the matter; Dr. R. W. Brooks, the Revs. A. F. Emes, W. F. Whitfield, Hampton T. Medford, J. L. S. Holloman, G. T. Long and Bishop E. D. W. Jones. Letter Unsatisfactory The decision to seek legal redress from Robert came about after a protest letter written to the assistant secretary failed to bring a satisfactory answer. Robert made his notorious "nigger speech" at a banquet given in honor of the Washington Baseball team at the Commodore Hotel September 25. During his remarks Robert used the word "nigger" in referring to colored persons and told several lewd and offensive stories to the radio audience. In a letter to the Alliance Robert said that he did not know his speech was on the air and failed to give a satisfactorily answer to the letter written him by the Alliance. Plan Slander Suit Although he denied that he knew the program was being broadcast, listeners-in distinctly heard the master of ceremonies at the banquet invite the speaker to the microphone before the talk began.

Owns Balfour Apartments In addition to these assets, John T. Rishner sets forth the fact that the property owned by the company, with primary reference to the Balfour Apartments, located here, and occupied by white tenants, together with mortgages and other accumulations, totals over $600,000. This property is worth $400,000, according to realtors, and the National Benefit Life Insurance Company owes about $70,000 on it, (Continued on Page 3) Cardozo Student is Colonel of Ninth Brigade Cadets You're coming to AMOCO-GAS The ORIGINAL SPECIAL MOTOR FUEL AMERICAN OIL CO.

The Sinfonietta has appeared with conspicuous success in many of New England's cities and towns, and its concerts have received praise from both critics and public. The group gave a finished concert, which delighted a large audience in Orden Hall. This concert was the first in the Musical Art Series for the school year. Next month the Wiener Sangerknaben, the famous boy choir which has been the musical sensation of both Europe and America, will appear on the campus. They will be followed in succeeding months by Madam Lillian Evant, soprano; Josef Hofmann, world famous pianist, and Dr. Clarence Cameron White, violinist, who is director of the Hampton Institute School of Music and of the Musical Art Series. Two other concerts are still being arranged and it is expected that the attractions will be announced within the coming month. The Musical Art Series, which was organized under the direction of Dr. Nathaniel Dett, former director of the school of music, aims to give to students and staff an opportunity to hear the best in the field of music and has been successful in bringing to Hampton the leaders in this field of art. MARRIES BALTIMOREAN Miss Leanna West, 21, of this city, was recently granted a license in Baltimore to marry William West, 34, of that city. Flag Association Wars on Crime, But Not Lynching The United States Flag Association is calling a national anti-crime conference here October 12-14, and has picked out every known crise to fight—except lynching and mob violence. The flag association lists murders, kidnappings, burglaries, arson, dope, racketeering, and vice but says not a mumbling word about lynching. Walter White, secretary of the N.A.A.C.P., who has been invited to attend the confab, is suggesting the great American pastime might be fought along with other crimes. Roosevelt Asked to End Control of Haitian Finances Termination of American financial control in Haiti perpetuated "to collect a debt due to private bankers" and administrative action similar to that taken in Cuba to effect a scaling down of the loan by these bankers were urged on President Roosevelt September 30 in a memorial signed by liberals and liberal organizations. The memorial commended the provisions of the Executive Agreement signed August 7 which promised the withdrawal of marines from Haiti but recommended that further negotiations be undertaken for the settlement of financial problems by an official treaty. Supporting this policy were the American Civil Liberties Union; by Harry Ward, chairman, and Roger N. Baldwin, director; the Fellowship of Reconciliation, by J. B. Matthews, secretary; the League for Industrial Democracy, by Mary Fox, secretary; the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, by Walter White, secretary; the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, by Dorothy Detzer, secretary; and the National, Urban League, by Eugene Knickle Jones, secretary, and L. Hollingsworth Wood, president; Rabbi Edward L. Israel, Baltimore; Habert Herring, New York; Rabbie Sidney E. Goldstein, New York, and Charles A. Thompson, New York. Swallowing the contents of a 3-ounce bottle of lysol in a fit of despondency, Miss Dorothy Washington, 25, of 615 First Street, Southwest, died a short while later at Providence Hospital, Sunday night. Miss Washington had purchased the lysol last prior to drinking it at Charles Hallstork's drug store, Second and H Streets, Southwest, apparently for sanitary purposes. Returning home, she poured the deadly potion down her throat. When her condition was observed by a member of the house, a passing taxi driven by Thomas Norman, of 2715 P Street, Northwest, was engaged and the stricken young woman conveyed to the hospital. Treatment was begun at 10 p.m., by Dr. Edmonson, who later pronounced her dead at 10:55 p.m. A certificate of suicide was issued by Dr. A. M. MacDonald, acting coroner. Mystery Shrouds Leap of Waitress from Taxi Police were pondering early this week over just what did happen to Mrs. Armelia Fleet, 29, of 761 Gresham Place, Northwest, a waitress in an establishment at Twelfth and U Streets, between the hours of 2:30 and 3 a.m., Sunday. Mrs. Fleet applied to Freedmen's Hospital about 3 a.m., and was treated by Dr. Kline Price for a laceration of the scalp which required two stitches and a left eye inlined to be black. The waitress told staff physicians and members of the Second Precinct that she had jumped from a taxicab, but could not identify the driver, did not know his number nor his name, nor why she jumped. In fact, Mrs. Fleet could not, at least did not, give any information as to how she was injured. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. THURSDAY. OCTOBER 5. 1933 DOCTORS FAIL TO AGREE ON CAUSE OF MAN'S DEATH Hospital Says Alchy, While D.C. Chemist, Finds No Liquor in Stomach One man was held for the action of the grand jury and another exonerated by a soroner's jury Friday morning in connection with the death of Milton Marshall Thompson, alias William Thomas, 56, white, of no fixed address, who was found in an unconscious condition September 25 in a vacant lot on First Street between N and O Streets, Southeast. Arthur Warden, 50, 1271 First Street, was held for the grand jury while William H. Day, 44, 115 M Street, was ordered release. Said Man Was Drunk Said Man Was Drunk Although two physicians from Gallinger Hospital testified that Thompson was suffering from acuta alcoholism and the odor of liquor was strong on his breath when brought to the hospital, Dr. A. McGruder McDonald, acting coroner, stated that contents of the man's stomach and a blood analysis by the District chemist failed to reveal any trace of whiskey. Several witnesses testified that Warden and his wife had been fighting earlier in the day and Mrs. Warden had been severely beaten with a handle of a broom. She is in Gallinger Hospital in a serious condition. The white man had been drinking with others in the neighborhood and was drunk, it was said. It was stated that Warden had warned Thompson to stay away from the former's home. It was also stated that Thompson called police when Warden was beating his wife. Two Were Fighting Warden and Thompson became engaged in a fight in the street and residents tried to part them. After the combatants were separated Thompson ran with Warden in pursuit. This was the last seen of them until Thompson was found lying in a ditch o. the lot by officers who had o. called by Mrs. Minnie Reed, 1300 block of First Street, Southeast, who heard groans coming from the lot. An autopsy disclosed that Thompson died of a ruptured liver and internal injuries. Day was exonerated after testifying in his own behalf that he had nothing to do with the fight. Police held Day after an alleged dying statement by Thompson connected the man with the fight. Alabama Governor Offers Lynch Reward MONTGOMERY, Ala. (ANP)—The governor of Alabama, B. M. Miller, is moved. Tuesday, inked by the mob murder of Dennis Gross at Tuscaloosa, the third lynching there in a month, Governor Miller offered a reward of $400 for the arrest, and conviction of the slayers of Cross. Seven men went to his house, posed as officers, and took him away. He was later found shot to death. “This offense on its reported face is so heinous,” Governor Miller said, “that without call from an official of the county, this reward of $400 is offered for the arrest and conviction of the offenders, hoping it will encourage and stimulate not only the officials, but the citizens to double their energy and efforts to end such crime by speedy arrest, trial and conviction of the guilty parties.” Gross had been arrested for an alleged attempted attack on a white woman, but the very fact that he was released under $300 bond, indicated the filmsiness of the evidence against him. Ohio Hospital Fails to Treat Negro Patient CINCINNATI, Ohio-An employee who worked at the General Hospital one year and six months had her eyes go bad on her. When she told a medical doctor, he told her to work up until July 15 if she could. She continued to work until July 15 and received her pay. Later she was taken in for a patient for treatment of her eyes, and was told that her eye ailment was a cataract. She was there 19 days, and according to the Daily Worker, they did not give her treatment, "and it looked like they never cared if she went blind or not." The correspondent added, "This case was taken up by the Unemployed Council. This shows you how one Negro is taken care of in the General Hospital in the city of Cincinnati." Fourteen-months- old. Juanita Alford was given first aid by the Fire Rescue Squad and taken to Emergency Hospital for treatment. Sunday, for burns about the body received when hot grease being used in cooking boiled over and spattered over her at her home in the 1100 block of Third Street, Southwest. Kentucky Bank Depositors Form Mutual Company to Hold Savings Mutual Standard Bank Assets to Be Bought, Including Claims Against Stockholders; Funds to Be Distributed Later LOUISVILLE, Ky.-Last week the articles of incorporation of the Mutual Standard Securities Company, were filed with an authorized capital of $450,000. This corporation is said to be organized for the purpose of acquiring the deposit liabilities as well as the other liabilities of the Mutual Standard Bank by exchanging its capital stock, par for par, for the deposit liabilities as well as other liabilities of the Mutual Standard Bank. PLAN TO CLOSE TRAINING SCHOOL (Continued from page 1) amount in sight. As we faced these distressing facts and sat at our desk piled high with S.O.S. appeals from girls in every section of the country—fine promising girls who want to be schooled in modern subjects and at the same time get a Christian education—we felt a real challenge of the kind of faith that sends one back into the conflict to win out on report to God the reason why. A voice as clear as seven peals of thunder seemed to say, "Go to it." The classic lines of Kipling rang in my soul: "A voice as clear as conscience rant interminable changes On one everlasting whisper, day and night, repeated— so— Something out there, something hidden-Go and ing for you—Go!" We got up singing "I'm Going Through." With God's help and the co-operation of friends we are going through. To Open in Spring Good sense tells us it is far better to open in the spring and run on than it would be to open in the fall and be forced for lack of funds to shut down in mid-winter. Lincoln Heights is beautiful in the springtime. The spring term begins April 15. The summer term will be most unusual in that we will open a beautiful camp near the school and will divide the time between early morning study—mid-dav rest and evening under clear skies and delightful surroundings. The fall months are glorious here. Teachers Free in Spring We will have our same strong faculty and in addition thereto we will have the services of some of the finest teachers in America who will be free to help us carry on our enlarged and enriched program during the summer. In God's beautiful outdoors, in the midst of a healthy, wholesome and inspiring atmosphere we are going to "carry on" for God and for a finer womanhood. Glorious days are ahead for all girls who want to specialize in business, home making, interior decorating, social service, Christian leadership, public speaking, music, physical education, practical arts, English, science and history. To Resell School Now, in the meantime (this winter) what are we going to do ter what are we going to do. 1. Organize and train a cast to be known as "The National Training School Pageant Players;" tour the country and re-sell the Training School and its ideals as a challenge to all who are interested in Negro girls. 2. Inaugurate and push a nationwide campaign for new friends, funds, foodstuff, and coupons. Such a campaign properly pushed will bring in enough money to pay the pressing mortgage in the Trades Hall. 3. Publish the Worker. Finish our long delayed book. Push our programs for the revitalization of missionary societies and the Woman's Convention. Stimulate new life and spirit in Negro womanhood. Faith sends us into the conflict. Faces Crisis As president of the National Training School, I have sacrificed, slaved, suffered in silence—willy-but—a crisis like this calls into play all the faith, courage, hope, and will that we gave. We accept the new challenge to find a way out and give the institution into which hundred of friends have invested money, faith, and love. We shall make them happy. The rest of life lies in its ventures. We dare to try. Will you go with us? proceed to liquidate the assets through a board of directors elected by its stockholders, and from time to time distribute to the stockholders of this corporation the proceeds of the liquidation until the assets of the Mutual Standard Bank have been finally liquidated. Trying t Prevent Sale It is said that unless the plan set forth above is adopted, then the only thing left for the Banking Commissioners to do is to proceed to procure an order of court for the sale of the assets of the Mutual Standard Bank at the highest and best obtainable bid, then pay the expense of liquidation, and distribute such funds as might be received. It would be difficult to find any individual or corporation that would buy these assets and pay any sum for them that would not a dividend for the depositors. Hence, the only way out appears to be the foregoing form of liquidation over a period of years by a board of directors selected by the depositors. In other words, should the depositors of the Mutual Standard Bank exchange their claims against the bank for stock of this corporation, it will be merely exchanging their deposit liabilities for a refunding certificate, as it is the purpose of the corporation to refund to its stockholders the proceeds of liquidation as speedily as the assets of the Mutual Standard Bank, when acquired, can be collected. John M. Drew to Run for Darby Council PHILADELPHIA. — John M. Drew, for years one of Darby's most outstanding citizens, was nominated on the Democratic ballot for councilman, during the primary elections, here recently. Drew lives in the township's First Ward, which has a fifty per cent Negro vote. Although he was not supported by the majority of the Negroes in the section who cast their votes for white men, Drew seems to have a fair chance of giving the township its first representative in the council during the last thirty years. The Democratic nominee was one of the township's most ardent supporters of President Roosevelt during the last national election. A tabulation of the votes showed that of the 163 Democrats registered and voting, Drew polled seventy-four. Running with Drew for the post of school commissioner was Fred Thaite, who received sixty-four of the total Democratic balloting. Darby now has a chance to place a successful business man and fighter for group interests in a responsible position and one who could do much good. The combined vote of Negro Republicans and Democrats at the general election will place him in that position. Virginia Daily Backs Negroes on Grand Juries RICHMOND, Va. — Decaring that Judge Lowell, in his famous decision in the George Crawford case, "pointed to a sore spot in the Virginia system of justice," the Richmond Times-Dispatch, editorially praises Justice Frederick W. Coleman, who fined a white citizen $10 for refusing to sit on a grand jury with a Negro. Speaking of the Crawford case, which attracted national attention when carried through Massachusetts courts by N.A.A.C.P. attorneys, and is now before the U.S. supreme court, the Times-Dispatch says: "The danger of a system which does not recognize Negroes in its delinerations has been sharply emphasized in the case of George Crawford. . . . Judge Lowell's decision was based on the fact that Negroes are not called for jury service in Loudon county and therefore the case against Crawford may have been prejudiced. . . . Judge Coleman is right. There is no better time than the present to cure a sore spot which has brought to Virginia much unfavorable publicity." Says Pocket Rifler Socked Him in Jaw Ruby Dent, 35, of 1658 Navy Place, Southeast, related to officers of the Fourth Precinct this week that when he lay down to sleep near his home, Sunday, he awoke to find Joe Dorsey, 30, of 727 Navy Place, going through his pockets. Not only that, complained Dent, but Dorsey smashed him in the face to make his sleep a little more extended. Dent went to Providence after the reputed assault, and was treated for a fracture of the lower jaw and several loose teeth. Dent claimed Dorsey took a one-dollar bill from his pocket. The latter was arrested and held by officers of the Fourth Precinct. JIMMY WALKER DUKE ELLINGTON'S GUEST IN LONDON Former New York Mayor and Noted Movie Stars Praised Artist CHICAGO—Rumors that were circulated about us being segregated while in Europe were all false. Why, we stopped in one of the most exclusive hotels in London. Such people visited us as Jimmy Walker, former mayor of New York, leading movie stars, at that time, delegates to the Peace Conference, that was held in London," answered Duke Ellington on the question put to him by this reporter for the Associated Negro Press and The Tribune. Ellington and his outfit, fresh from their European tour, were engaged at the Windy City's largest motion picture house, the Chicago theatre, last week. Not Feeling So Well We dropped in on the Duke right after the first show, in his dressing room. He wasn't "feeling so well," he told us, but felt like the true trouper that "the show must go on." The pleasing personality of this band master and composer is an inspiration to one who meets him. His conversation reveals his education and culture, and that the success he has attained internationally, hasn't "gone to his head." After playing to record attendance at the Chicago theatre, the band played a dance engagement at the Savoy ballroom. This was their last northern appearance until February. This week they open a theatre schedule in Dallas, Texas. From there they will follow the trail blazed by Cab Calloway last spring. He also added that he was not only treated royally in England, but throughout Europe. The members were respected and honored as artists rather than as a race. This disposition toward them assured a pleasant tour. About His Compositions When asked if he could account for the disposition of some people to prefer his renditions of his own compositions rather than the interpretations of others, Mr. Ellington, explained some of the purposes behind the writing of his compositions. He believes that they appeal to and represent the emotions of the Negro, and such spirit in composition cannot be taught in conservatories. It just has to be felt. "The average American white man calls and classes these interpretations as jazz, but my conclusions are that they are Negro feelings put into rhythm and tune," he stated earnestly. Some of the questions asked him were: "What do you think of George Gershwin's compositions?" "I think they are your fine." May Write Jazz Symphony "Do you think that white composers write better symphonies than colored musicians?" "No." "Have you ever thought of producing a jazz symphony of some length?" "Yes, I have started one representing the history of the Negro, but as yet it is impossible." "What difference did you find in the response of your white audiences abroad and those in America?" "I find that the artistic appreciation of Europeans is much higher than that of Americans. Their response to folk songs and compositions is exceptionally intelligent." English Like Jazz "Do foreign countries other than English speaking, appreciate jazz?" "Yes, the Dutch colonies and Holland seem to know more about the appreciation of jazz than Americans." "Did you have any labor troubles while in England. "No, I was very fortunate." "Daily papers described white women as falling over themselves to get engagements with members of your band. Tell us about it." "The stage entrances were rather congested with them, but on the whole they were taken in the attitude of artists. Personally, I don't approve of colored and white courtship." "Is it true that the Mills Brothers and the Mills Blue Rhythm Band are planning to tour Europe in the near future?" "I don't know about the Mills Brothers, but the band is." "Will you be at the Cotton Club this winter?" "No, we will tour the southland during the winter and will arrive in Harlem the latter part of February."

PROVIDENCE STAFF CONSISTS OF OVER TWENTY MEN PROVIDENCE STAFF CONSISTS OF OVER TWENTY MEN CHICAGO (ANP)—The long awaited announcement of the staff of the New Provident Hospital, was made last Monday by the University of Chicago, with which the hospital is affiliated. Professional circles here were tremendously interested because, since the new institution is the ranking Negro hospital in the United States and members of the staff must pass the strict scrutiny of the University of Chicago authorities, a position on the official roster is regarded as a coveted prize. Of the approximately two hundred and thirty colored physicians in the city, one hundred and twelve were named on the staff. Fourteen white consultants, among them some of the best trained men in the city were also selected. The tenure of the staff positions is for one year, insuring on the part of the members, constant efforts to maintain the high standards which their selection stamps them as having attained. Driving 22 Years, Denied Operator's Renewal Permit; So What? Here's one for the books. With more than a score of years of experience at operating an automobile behind him, F. Morris Murray, prominent local business man in general manager of the Washington Tribune newspaper, was rejected when he applied for a renewal on his expired permit, late last week, and told to "go home and learn the traffic regulations." One of those "life's darkest moment" experiences found its way into the already full career of Mr. Murray, when he was admonished on his appearance at the Traffic Bureau, last Friday. He had found himself to be driving on an expired permit when he looked up his license following a difficulty involving a relative, Thursday night. Immediately he decided to free himself of the danger of being arrested on a dead permit charges. When he applied at the bureau, he was told that since he had been without a legitimate license since early in June, it would be necessary for him to undergo an examination on the regulations. Hit rapists to the questions fired at him by the examiner brought numerous laughs from both the official and the applicant, and Mr. Murray was subsequently advised that he would have to learn the code before he could be licensed. This he did overnight. Saturday morning Mr. Murray made a second application and this time the man who has at some time or other driven everything from a side-crank double-decker to a free-wheeling chariot, was passed and licensed. Acquitted in Slaying Man with Stick During Fight LEONARDTOWN, Md.-Stephen Watts, 42, charged with man-slaughter in connection with the death of Richard Barnes, 39, ex-service man of Ridge, Md., was found not guilty in the St. Mary's County Circuit Court here Friday. Watts is alleged to have struck Barnes with a stick during a fight. ACTION BEGUN IN EFFORT TO MOVE JUDGE LOWELL Congress Takes First Step to Impeach Jurist Accused of Extradition Leniency Two members of the House of Representatives Judiciary Committee, early this week, started action in the proposed congressional impeachment proceedings against Federal Judge James A. Lowell, of Massachusetts, charged with extreme leniency for its denial of extradition to Virginia of George Crawford, accused of a double murder, last winter. Judge Lowell's refusal to sanction extradition if Crawford, wanted in Virginia for trial in the slaying of two white women, was reversed by the U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals. He based his refusal on the ground that Virginia did not call colored persons for junty duty and hence Crawford, if returned there, would not l. given a fair trial. Extradition would be "against my Yankee sense of fair play." Judge Lowell said. In reversing the Lowell decision the Circuit Court said: "It was not intended by Congress that the Federal courts shouln, by writ of habeas corpus obstruct the orderly administration of the criminal laws of a state through its own tribunals." The Lowell decision aroused a storm of protest in Congress. On April 26 the House adopted by a vote of 209 to 150 a resolution calling for a Judiciary Committee investigation of impeachment charges against Judge Lowell. Representative Gordon Browning (D.), of Tennessee and Randolph Perkins (R.), of New Jersey, visited the Federal Building here today. They said they would call no "witnesses," but would ask several persons to submit to "interviews." Judge Lowell will be among these, they said. There are a few dates left at the Casimo.

The Cheesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company (Bell System) METROPOLITAN 9900 Irate Hairdressers Object to Separate NRA Code BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL COLORED WOMEN DEMAND SAME WAGE SCALE COLORED WOMEN DEMAND SAME WAGE SCALE Representatives Give Different Interpretations of Desires of Associates CHICAGO (ANP)—Protestting what they felt were the efforts of the National Beauty Culturs League to obtain a separate NRA code under which colored beauty shop owners and operators would work, members of the National Beauty Shop Owners' Association, also a colored organization, held a mass meeting at Berean Baptist Church here Sunday, which was attended by several hundred beauticians and formulated a plea to be presented to General Hugh Johnson of the National Recovery Administration, in which the demand was made that the same code be put into vogue for all beauty culturs regardless of color. Fear that colored hairdressers were to be made the victims of a separate code were aroused when C. V. Godefrey, executive director for the National Hairdressers' and Cosmetologists' Association, a white body, revealed in letters and in a meeting of that organization held here at the Chicago Beach Hotel last Tuesday, that the National Beauty Culturists' League has asked the officers of the white association to present a separate code on behalf of colored workers. Mrs. G. S. Morgan Young, of Memphis, past president of the National Beauty Culturists' League, attended the meeting of the National Hairdressers' and Cosmetologists' Association here, although not a delegate, and is declared by the only other colored women present. Mrs. Ruth Jackson and Mrs. Elna Finney, officers of the Chicago and Illinois Beauty Shop Owners' Association to have made a speech depreciating the ability of colored beauty workers to either command the prices of the whites or to meet the requirements in wages and hours which the white shops had set up in their code. Seeks Aid of National Body "I am not a member of your organization," Mrs. Young said after asking to speak to the white beauticians, "but I want to interpret to you the sentiment of all the Negro beauty culturists throughout the country. "We do not wish to sit in your closed meetings, but in your meetings behind closed doors, remember us. Our shops cannot pay as high wages nor get as high prices as you do. We want to arrange for a code which will apply only to colored workers. I bring you greetings from thousands of colored hair-dressers and ask you to hear our ples." Mrs. Jackson arose immediately behind Mrs. Young and in an impromptu address said that she was present on the invitation of the secretary of the white organization, but that she felt Mrs. Young misinterpreted the spirit of the Negro hairdressers. "We do not want any segregation based on race," Mrs. Jackson said. She added: "We do not ask for a separate code. We wish to uphold the standards of the profession, and our organization is opposed to asking the United States government to put into effect a separate code for colored workers in beauty culture or any other avenue of employment." Mr. Godefroy explained in letters exhibited by Mrs. Jackson that when he, President Beaurois and Secretary Emme went before Administrator Power of the NRA at Washington, he presented a letter from the National Beauty Culturists Association, which had asked him to represent them and which asked for a separate code. He said that Mr. Power was much interested and asked many questions regarding the hairdressing industry among Negroes, which Mr. Godefroy answered at some length What White Workers Ask Beauty culturers are working at present under a general agreement, but the formal code has not yet been signed. Whether a separate code will be issued for colored workers has not been determined, but the National Beauty Shop Owners, in their meeting Sunday, prepared a protest to be sent to General Hugh Johnson, Mr. Power, and Clark Foreman, advisor on economic affairs for Negroes under the NFA, demanding the same identical code for all workers in the industry. The trade practices which the white operators have asked to be incorporated into their code are: That no beauty shop owner may rent or lease space to operators or apprentices, but shall pay them a salary; no shop will employ any one operator more than eight hours in one day or forty-eight hours in one week, excluding Saturday and pre-holidays; no shops shall open Sundays or holidays; the operator shall not solicit resident beauty service except in emergency and when doing so shall present a card of identification showing her place of employment. There shall be no ticket service, premium rebating for free work. All service must be sold on quality. All emergency residence service shall pay double fee. Operators are to be given forty-five minutes for lunch. Shop owners will not solicit operators from another shop. Shop owners paying on a commission basis will not pay less than thirty per cent nor more than fifty per cent. In his letter Mr. Godefroy deprecated the existence of more than one colored national organization. H- felt that all beauty operators should belong to one national organization. South protests Paying of Equal Wages Mr. Godefroj pointed out at the National Cosmeologists' gathering that when the codes had been received from all the state organizations, twelve southern states were in accord with the national code agreed to by the other states with the exception that they did not wish to pay their colored maids the same wages which they paid their white operators. President Beauvois took the floor and said that regardless of race, color or creed, all maids would be paid the same wage and that was 75 per cent of the operator's minimum. Mrs. Ruth Jackson, who is national organizer of the National Beauty Shop Owners' Association, said: "I think it is perfectly ridiculous fo. colored beauty shop owners to endeavor to segregate themselves from the benefits which NRA may bring to them and to set up a separate code with inferior standards and wages. Too, I think that the hundreds of girls who work exclusively upon whites would find themselves discriminated against and forced to accept the lower wage scale. This would not only reduce their income but would engender the enmity of the white workers whom they are competing with. "There are no colored people who belong to the white national organization, but there is no reason why they shouldn't. The only reason Negroes do not belong is because the local bodies of colored hairdressers have not paid the fees of the national. Our organization was asked to join. We did not do so because we had a national of our own and because we did not wish to pay the additional fees. However, when it comes to a matter of code making, we wished the white national to know that we stood foursquare with them." Officers of the National Beauty Shop Owners' Association are: Eva White, Chicago, president; L. L. Moody, Detroit, vice president; Mrs. E. F. Shannon, secretary; Mrs. Ruth Jackson, organizer. Officers of the National Beauty Culturists' League 19: Mrs. Rosemond Stewart, Newark, N.J. president; Mrs. Mattie Cain, Memphis, Tenn., secretary, and Mrs. Beulah Ford, Albany, N.Y., organizer. UNDERTAKER SUES (Continued from page 1) Rhines, asks $10,000. In the second count, the petitioner declares there were ample accommodations for the general public which were unengaged, but despite this fact he was not allowed to enter any of the unoccupied seats. The sum of $10,000 is also sought on this count. Claims Segregation Claims Segregation The third allegation is that the only reason Mr. Rhine was refused passage is because that he is a Negro. It is set forth that discrimination because of color is not for a reason applicable to other citizens and is unlawful and wrong. For the special discrimination, Mr. Rhines seeks $10,000 compensatory damages, and an additional $10,000 for punitive damages. In the fourth count Mr. Rhines detailed how he secured his reservation from the Postal Telegraph Company in Atlantic City, who are agents for the defendant company. He secured the reservation on the day prior to the proposed flight, August 23, paying $9.82 for it. For the "wanton" refusal of the company to allow him to enter the aeroplane after he presented the reservation ticket and the subsequent inconvenience and discomfort, Mr. Rhines seeks $10,000 on this count. A total of $50,000 damages sought. RECORDS SHOW (Continued from page 1) fore it can have a clear title. Mr. Risher says that the company's books show that it owns real estate, clear and unencumbered amounting to approximately $432,271.11, which, as Mr. Risher puts it, is "a very conservative estimate, as to the real worth of the properties." Mortgages Total $336,654 The company further holds mortgages, which are secured by clear property, in reliable ownership, amounting in value to exactly $338,654.13. These mortgages, Mr. Risher states, are on property owned by persons well able to take care of their obligations, and represent no dangerous risk to the company. Thus the real value of the company's assets total $768,925.24, which when added to the total of $217,552.80 in cash money, gives it a complete worth of $986,478.04, which can be turned into cash through liquidation. ADDRESS BY ROBERTS (Continued from page 1) Members of the Alliance were of the opinion that Robert could be sued for slander and possible libel. In the event that both of these legal actions failed, the Alliance will ask President Roosevelt and Secretary William Wooden for the man's immediate removal from office. The committee of the Alliance which is to confer with the council will meet Thursday at 4 p.m. at which time possible legal action will be threshed out. It was also brought to the attention of the Alliance that Henry Ford, automobile manufacturer, was brought into court and prosecuted by members of the Jewish race for alleged slander against that group of citizens some time ago. Tries to Explain In explaining his offensive speech Robert explained in his letter to the Alliance that he was friendly to the Negroes as he had demonstrated his friendliness to a certain group here in Washington. The Alliance pointed out that this alleged friendly attitude had no connection with the present case and did not constitute a proper explanation. Roberts enclosed a letter he had written some time ago to J. A. Lankford in regards to securing contracts for Negro architects on government projects. In this letter Robert pointed that work was let by the government on a basis of ability and not color. Members of the Alliance were incensed at the stand taken by Robert in his letter-and plan to tell him so. They point out that not only was the Negro race insulted by the obscene jokes, but many white persons felt that stories of the character told by a man in a high government office was entirely out of place for one in his position. Robert's Letter Robert's letter to the Rev. R. W. Brooks, president of the Alliance, follows; acknowledge receipt of your letter of the 26th which has been very carefully noted. I want you to be assured that you and your associates are mistaken in the interpretation of any remarks that I made, or my personal attitude, as might be expected. I feel quite sure that if any of you knew me personally and my past background, which shows high regard for your people, you would be surprised that I have said something that might have been said could not, in any way, be meant as a reflection. It was unfortunate that, by a misunderstanding, the program of the stag day training was changed. My understanding was to the contrary, or else I certainly would have expressed myself differently. This situation distresses me as it certainly seems to have created the wrong impression of me. I am attaching hereto a copy of a letter written recently, the contents of which will explain how I am entering into my personal attitude. Thanking you for calling this matt to my attention and trusting that you and your associates will understand my feelings in this situation. L. W. ROBERT, JR. L. W. ROBERT, JR. Assistant Secretary of the Treasury; PROSECUTION DELAYED (Continued from page 1) insisted was the result of the battle with Sterwa. Senor de Quiros, an Argentinian, employer of the girl, is an artist of international fame. He has a series of paintings in the current issue of the National Geographic Magazine. He told The Tribune, through an interpreter, because of an inability to speak English, that he had little faith in the story of the girl, but that it was a matter of Spanish Ambassador Cardenas to settle. To Be Investigated The artist is to leave the Massachusetts Avenue house, on October 16, according to Robert Onley, colored caretaker of the premises. The place belongs to Mrs. Alice P. Barney, who resides in Europe, and who leases the local property. Captain Edward J. Kelly, commanding officer of the Third Police Precinct, who was notified by Miss Rice following the alleged attack, referred the Tribune to Inspector L. I. H. Edwards, who in turn referred investigators to the office of the District Commissioners. It is the duty of these officials to investigate the case, and if such action is justified, to forward a complaint to the State Department. This latter office will then take the matter up with the Spanish government. Dr. Rhett Stewart (white) of 1638 Connecticut Avenue, Northwest, told The Tribune, Wednesday, that he had treated the girl, but refused to make any further statement. TO SET UP JIM CROW FORESTRY CAMP LITTLE ROCK Ark.—One Negro Civilian Conservation Corps Camp will be located in Arkansas, C.C.C. officials announced Monday night upon receipt of word from the department at Washington. This camp, to which approximately 200 Negroes will be assigned, probably will be near Camden. Registration will start as soon as the order is confirmed. Up until now, many white farmers have been employing Negroes at starvation wages and sending their sons off to the camps to earn a dollar a day. BOY. 8.

The youth was so restless that physicians at Freedmen's Hospital could not sew up the wound. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1933 NEGRO ALLIANCE (Continued from page 1) regulations did not aim at picketing and boycotting. The purpose of the legislators, Mr. Lovett held out, "was obviously to control promiscuous commercial advertising." Hints Interracial Problem Only once did the crowded courtroom hear an utterance to the effect that the affair was the outgrowth of an interracial problem. This was the occasion when Assistant Corporation Counsel Theodore Welliver, representing the prosecution, responded to an assertion by Attorney Hastie in effect that the defendants were members of a group which had been "wronged." The assertion was incorporated in a citation offered by the N. N. A. lawyers as a sequel, which sequel was disposed of in the manner in which they sought to have the charge against their clients treated. "I was reluctant," Mr. Wellervil said, "to make this a race issue, but since counsel has seen fit to intimate that somebody has been 'wronged', I find it necessary, pursuant to my duties, to explain the situation. These signs (here he read from the signs) tend to promote racial ill-feeling. Counsel has insisted that they are not of an advertising nature because they do not offer anything to be sold. But this is propaganda, and propaganda is advertisement. Tells of War Methods "During the World War," the corporation counsel continued, "certain nations placed propaganda in the forms of thousands of circulars in airplanes and had them carried over hostile territory and dropped to the earth below. These circulars described conditions which existed or which they believed existed—whether they actually existed or not I do not know. That is what has happened here. These people are attempting to picture a condition which exists and which they interpret as a wronggoing. "These people had not been, are not, and as far as I know never will be employed by the Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company. And in seeking redress for the 'wrong' which they believe has been perpetrated on them they patrol the street with these unsightly signs. Says Signs Unsightly "And they are unsightly," he went on, "as unsightly as a sign advertising the sale of automobiles, or the sale of pajamas, or the sale of toilet paper." Arguments closed with the presentation of numerous legal citations by both the defense and the prosecution, some of which the court admitted he was not familiar with. It was at this time that Judge Schultz decided to take the motion under advisement for a final disposition on October 10. Meanwhile the Alliance has temporarily ceased its picket duties at the Ninth and S Streets branch. Letters urging that Negro consumers buy elsewhere, however, are still distributed in the neighborhood of the store. A canvas of the community by The Tribune discloses that housewives are in sympathy with the move of the youthful aggressors, and that their continued co-operation would be assured members of the Alliance. Three Stores Picketed Despite the fact that two youths were arrested, members of the Alliance continued their campaign against the A. and P. store at Ninth and S Streets, Northwest, and two other stores were added last Saturday when one in the 600 block of T Street and another in the 2700 block of Eleventh Street were "picked." Instead of signs the Alliance members handed out typewritten sheets of paper to prospective customers as they approached the stores. At the regular meeting of the association Saturday at the Twelfth Street Y.M.C.A. speakers lauded the work of the Alliance and reports were submitted showing that speakers had contacted every church in the city and the plans of the group put before the church members.

Members of the Alliance claim that newspapers carried an untrue report last week when papers claimed that two clerks had been hired by the A. and P. stores. Alliance members point out that the youths employed are on part time and are not full fledge! clerks. It was also said that neither of the boys make changes in waiting on customers. Plunges Three Stories; Sprains His Left Ankle Physicians are still pondering over what kind of material Douglass Postello, 45, of 1417 Fifth Street, Northwest, is made. The reason is: Postello was cleaning windows on the third floor of his residence, Saturday. Losing his balance, the window-cleaner plunged the whole distance to the ground, but luckily landed on soft earth. When conveyed to Freedmen's Hospital, the only thing that Dr. Kline Price could find at the time was a sprain or the left ankle.

The little girl also received a bruise of the right hip. DR. EMMETT SCOTT (Continued from page 1) Regiment Armory Tuesday night, with the notables of the city present and Congressman DePriest as toastmaster, Dr. Emmett J. Scott delivered the principal address and pleaded for an "Americanism which would eliminate all barriers of inequality and injustice." After tracing the glorious history of the Negro soldier, from Hannibal down through L'Ouverture, Crispus Attucks, the black sailors with Admiral Perry, during the Civil and Spanish-American Wars, to the great World War, Dr. Scott said. "The history of that war is but a duplicate of others in which the black man did his full duty in defending the honor of his country's flag. Scores Mob Law "While we are not here to glorify the exploits of the World War, neither are we here to register bitter complaints because of the shattered dreams, illusions and delusions of the post-war period. . . All of these must be forgotten in the problems of today "I have always contended that a country worth fighting for is a country worth living for. At the same time I have contended that a man who is brave enough to carry a gun in defense of his country's honor should be honored with all of the rights and privileges of citizenship—complete protection of life and liberty, freedom from the menace of cowardly mobs, all of the political and civil rights that others enjoy; the elimination of unfair discriminations of all kinds, and at this time of all times, a square deal in every industrial code under the NRA."

You instantly know what grade of coal you are getting when you see the blue tint. It guarantees a hard coal, evenly and long burning, scientifically prepared to eliminate impurities. Unbranded coal may vary in quality. Each piece of coal trademarked with the blue tint MUST reach a high quality mark—that's why your expenditure is protected by 'blue coal' that costs no more!

Are things, equal to the same thing, equal to each other? "No," says Georgia. Fathom this one: In Atlanta, Ga., a jury in the court of Judge John D. Humphries decreed that Floyd South, convicted slayer of Bennie Gadlin, a merchant, during a robbery, must die in the electric chair November 17. South's trial was held Monday and the jury verdict, sealed, returned early Tuesday morning. That afternoon, in the same court, a jury in 15 minutes acquitted Mrs. Bertha Virginia Smith, white, of guilt in connection with the fatal stabbing of Mrs. Clara Wallace, her maid. Mrs. Smith admitted on the stand that she cut Mrs. Wallace's head off. She claimed that Mrs. Wallace advanced on her with a knife, that she took it away, got mad and did not know what she was doing. Frailty—Thy Name Is Woman. The Rev. J. L. Reeves who lives in Topeka, Kansas, but pastors an A.M.E. church at Osage City, Kansas, nearby, had an unfortunate experience which brought him into police court last week. It seems that the good pastor had been keeping company with a young woman, Miss Marie Jones. It is said that the two had made a number of trips together. Recently, however, their relations had been severed. Miss Jones came to Topeka to talk it over with the pastor, but when she went to his home at 727 E. 10th Street, and knocked on the door, she found another woman within. In a spirit of revenge Miss Jones proceeded to break in the windows. Policemen were summoned, Miss Jones was taken into custody, but when Justice Steinrauf heard the case, the pastor's position was changed from that of complainant to defendant. Efforts are being made to settle the matter out of court. Who was it who said, "All dust is frail, all flesh is weak"? In Black and White In order that the administration policy in respect to the hiring of labor may be thoroughly understood, Harold L. Ickes, Washington, D.C., secretary of the interior and administrator of public works, has recently sent a letter to all state engineers, responsible for the public works in their states calling their attention to the law. Mr. Ickes wrote: "It is important to bear in mind that the Public Works Administration is for the benefit of all the people of the country. The estab- liited policy in the construction of public buildings and public works under its control is that in the employment of mechani and labor, preference be given to local labor to the extent that it is available and competent, and that there be no discrimination exercised against any person because of color or religious affiliation. "This policy is in accord with section 206. 4) of the National Industrial Recovery Act. "You are directed to bring the above-stated policy to the attention of all contractors and subcontractors and their representatives whose work comes under your superintendence, coupled with the request that they co-operate with the Administration in carrying such policy into effect. Will you notify the Administration promptly of any departure from or disregard of this policy by any such contractor, subcontractor or representative thereof?" Shortly before Mr. Ickes's letter was written, Deputy Administrator Waite told the representatives of five southern states that the minimum wages must be paid to BLACK and WHITE laborers alike. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Tillotson College Girls Have Figures to Show Here's what the new girls are like in Austin, Texas. The average Tillotson freshman is 18.6 years old, the youngest being 16 and the oldest 24. She weighs 118 pounds, is 5 feet, 2.2 inches high, in good health, and of chocolate brown, fairly smooth complexion. Four per cent of the parents are doctors and lawyers, 2 per cent are in business, 2 per cent are mechanics, and less than 4 per cent are unemployed. Eighth and six-tenths per cent of the freshmen have engaged in teaching music. Besides the Bible, 75 per cent of these students are familiar with Shakespeare's dramas, Hamlet and Macbeth. These are the most widely known English classics among them. Fifty per cent of the class voted Silas Marner the most widely known classic prose fiction. Of popular truck, 25 per cent were most familiar with "Bad Girl" and 20 per cent with "The Sheik." Ninety per cent of the class thought the word "chagrin" means a shade of green. The most widely known Biblical passages were the Twenty-third Psalm, John 3:16 and the Lord's Prayer. The average Tillotson freshman is THREE Baptist, 80 per cent being of that denomination. One-half of one per cent is Catholic. One-nait of one per cent is Methodist Episcopal, but 75 per cent of them want their preaching without undue emotion. They want a smooth delivery of facts and meaning, and not too much shouting. What They Expect of Men The class votes solidly in favor of marriage. At the same time more than 90 per cent want a career. The ideal man is this class is not merely good looking. He combines pleasing appearance and ability to deliver—to earn a living for his wife. Eight and six-tenth per cent have already picked him out. Thirty-eight per cent expect to teach. Seventy per cent have engaged in extra-curricular activities in high school. Emerging from the Little End The Negro farmer has gladly fallen in line with the Federal government's program for a reduction in certain farm acreage. True enough, it is fun to be fooled, but it is not always more fun to know the ultimate facts. Consider the instance here of a Negro farmer in Marianna, Ark., upon whom force was used to reduce his cotton acreage. Because county agents said he refused to plow under two acres of cotton which he had contracted to destroy. Bright Lockhart was forced to stand by while white farm hands volunteered and destroyed his cotton. Negro farmers have volunteered to co-operate in the Federal government program, but they have found themselves cheated many times when time for payment came. The Negro destroys his cotton, but in some way the money lodges with the white farmer. Bottle of Cod Liver Oil Saves Man from Jail John Brown, 352 Dixon Court, Southwest, appeared in Police Court Monday with his wife and a bottle of cod liver oil and won leniency on an intoxication charge. Brown told the court he was sorry and was about to sit down when his wife came to his aid, and declared he had been drinking cod liver oil. She heid the bottle before the court. "And besides," she said, "he has three children and a new job." Judge Gus A. Schuldt ordered a suspended sentence.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1933 A Fair "New Deal" In his address before the American Legion in session in Chicago on Monday the President of the United States announced a policy of the present administration and government, which, to say the least, was frank and fair. President Roosevelt stated in unmistakable terms that the Federal government will not be burdened with the exorbitant amount necessary to pay all veterans of the recent World War without regard to disability, and in effect, now being carried out, was to all fair-minded tax paying citizens the right and just principle, for, as the President emphatically stated, "Citizens who served in defense of their country devoid of any physical or mental disability are not entitled to become wards upon their fellow citizens as well as themselves because of having exercised a civic and national duty." It is common knowledge that there are numbers of World War service men who are, in addition to drawing Federal compensation, (in the nature of a pension), are employed by the same government at a salary commensurate with their services. This burden upon the people of America, the burden of pension and salary to men who are able to work, maintain their homes and families, is, according to the President's pronouncement, to be stopped. We feel that this attitude on the part of our President is deserving of the confidence, respect, consideration, and co-operation of all fair-minded citizens in this country. Negro Educational Recovery Washington needs a code for Negro Education. So many of our fellowmen mistake it more passing—through—school for actual education, that it is quite pertinent to consider real education and its relationship to the Negro in Washington. More than twenty-five thousand Negroes entered the public schools here on September 19. Others entered Howard University at a later date. Of this number many will graduate from high school, college and professional schools. These graduates, brimming with enthusiasm, will venture fearlessly into the world. They will find failure and disappointment. Why? Most graduates think—and claim—that they are educated. Excepting those who come from the professional schools, we do not feel that the majority are really educated at all. Education is the process by which one gains experience in particular fields. Such experience enables the recipient to act more efficiently thereafter in the particular fields for which he has been prepared. The modern community requires specialization, hence intensive education in a definite field is the order of the day. There is no short cut to perfection. Years and years of training—sometimes for both mind and body—are necessary for the proper education in one's specialty. The result of education is the specialist upon whom the community may depend for reliable service, whether he be the doctor, lawyer, plumber, baker, printer, carpenter, or any of the like. Are the majority of our graduates thus prepared? Again, excepting the professions possibly, we cannot find this to be true. And still our schools are doing about as much as could be expected of them from the present set-up. Graduates receive adequate general education; and such education is sufficient for the ordinary non-technical positions which are quite numerous in this city. Government services alone, affords thousands of such jobs. Negroes, however, stand helplessly by while these jobs are being filled by other nationalities who have about the same equipment of general education. Most Negroes so prepared have little to choose outside of domestic service and unemployment. What then, is the answer to this problem of Negro education? The answer is that the Negro must be provided with a more specialized form of education both in school and out. ) Vocational surveys to determine the fields that offer greatest opportunities to Negroes should be conducted. Our schools should offer intensive courses in such fields; and such courses should be in charge of teachers who know—and feel sincerely—the economic plight of the Negro graduate. On the other hand, the parents of Negro children should be willing to do something themselves toward insuring the future success of their own children. They should be more concerned with support of Negro business. They should patronize the Negro number, tinner, printer, storekeeper, and many others who may teach many Negroes in their employ. Negro business must carry on until your children can fill in the thinning ranks of those veterans who are now struggling against the terrific odds of racial prejudice and economic oppression. It is through this group of Negro employers—and your children in days to come—that a line of masters will be perpetuated—to live and to do, and to teach bettter the crafts and trades to future generations of Negroes who must be educated outside of schools. Washington needs an Educational Recovery program for Negroes. The code for such a program is all important. It should read something like this: "I promise to help prepare the Negro youth for his place in his chosen field. I will do also, all that I can to insure his future success, by patronizing Negro business whenever possible—otherwise I shall be careful to select the firm that is most fair in the employment of Negroes." Such a code would go a long way toward brightening the dark horizon for the forgotten Negro graduate.

Editor, the Tribune: Perhaps the New Negro Alliance represents the spirit of the new Negro—but the habits of the old Negro to start meetings C.P.T. is strong upon them. Just what is it that causes us to be so tardy for meetings. Many of our meetings that are attended by domestics can offer some excuse for being cows' tails—but what excuse can these New Negroes give? I hope this little reminder will awaken them and let the opening time be the opening time. N.N.A. MEMBER. Think this Over if You are in Favor of the Return of Booze. Editor, the Tribune: If you or many of your readers are glad that the 18th Amendment is about to throw the ghost, have you considered just what a hardship it will cause in the South? I commute by bus from Virginia to Washington every day, and the following are some of the things that post-repeal has brought about: 1. White drunks sit in the rear of busses and what with their vomiting, decent Negroes hate to have to be forced to accept those conditions. 2. More uncouth and drunken Negroes ride in the buses and their conduct is a detriment to our whole group. 3. Drunken whites or Negroes are tinder boxes of race prejudice, and it won't be long before something serious will happen. Before prohibition this transportation was made by electric cars—and the personal contact was not as close as it is in buses. Prohibition repeal may be a blessing to some—but to others it's not so good. ANNA P. POWELL, Arlington, Va. Veteran Seeks Former Buddies in Arms; Member of Rainbow Division.

OCTOBER 5. 1933 Kelly Miller Says The Economic Plight of the Negro Demands Relentless Opposition All possible protest should be made against our economic discrimination—but we need not expect too much. By KELLY MILLER For the first time in our history we are approaching the iron law of competition between white and black labor. ot work enough for all, the strong will serve themselves first. Up to now there has been work enough for all willing hands, white and black. The resources of a new continent had to be developed and its opportunities exploited. America had to draw on Europe for an adequate labor supply. Immigration doors swung wide open. But with the rapid advance in machinery the labor demand diminished. Immigration doors were closed. strong will serve themselves first. Up to now there has been work enough for all willing hands, white and black. The resources of a new continent had to be developed and its opportunities exploited. America had to draw on Europe for an adequate labor supply. Immigration doors swung wide open. But with the rapid advance in machinery the labor demand diminished. Immigration doors were closed. Labor began to organize so as to protect itself from inside and outside competition. The Negro was not welcome or wanted in these organizations whose chief motives were to limit competition. The American Federation of Labor tolerates the black man with a cold andicy tolerance. It is shot through with that primeval jealousy which forbids the despised race to partake of the tree of opportunity "lest there be not enough for you and us."

The American Federation of Labor tolerates the black man with a cold and icy tolerance. It is shot through with that primeval jealousy which forbids the despised race to partake of the tree of opportunity "lest there be not enough for you and us." At first the Negro was pushed down to the bottom of the labor ladder and confined to manual and menial types of tasks which the white man did not chose to do. But as necessity became more pressing the white workmen began to push downward and to crowd the black man out of fields customarily assigned to him. The barber waiter, the cook and the coachman gradually gave way to white encroachment.

MODERN APPLIANCES AFFECT DOMESTIC AND MANUAL, LABOR The perfection of machinery drove the colored woman out of the laundry business. The rise of apartment houses, household appliances and ready cooked foods are driving them out of the kitchen. Being thus dislodged from their former stronghold the Negro finds few new avenues to take the place of those which he has lost. The large scale industries make only limited allowance for him either at the bottom or on the outer edge. The sudden impasse between man and the machine brings the Negro's sad plight into full light. His list of unemployment is out of all proportion to the general average. He is rapidly recruiting the ranks of enforced idleness. These plain facts of observation are apparent to all who have the courage to face the situation. The time has come to face the facts and tell the truth. It no longer boots us any good to boast of our wonderful achievements or to condemn white men for their meanness. The white race admits its meanness and injustice without argument, if forced to do so, just as they do to the Japanese in California. "Shall we tell the Truth About Ourselves?" was a topic for discussion on the agenda of the late, lamented Armenia Conference. We must either face the facts or we will be faced up to them.

NRA CODES' WAGES CAUSE NKA CODES' WAGES CAUSE WHITES TO REPLACE NEGROES Now comes the NRA with its codes for the relief of the unemployed and the return of prosperity. All loyal Americans, and true, are praying for the success of the Blue Eagle. But after all the NRA has done all that it is calculated to do; what then will be the lot of the Negro? Up to date there is little or no indication that he is receiving any substantial benefit from the codes. Instead of diminishing his number of unemployed they are actually increasing it. The minimum wage under the codes is deemed too high for the black man in some quarters and is taken as an excuse for supplanting him with white workmen. Thus the iron heel of competition crushes out the weaker competitor by one pretext or another. All possible protest, petition and remonstrance should be made against such discrimination on account of race, but we need not be foolishly optimistic. After the Blue Eagle has folded his wings, the Negro's industrial and economic lot will be substantially as now. I do not believe that any hope lies in the manifesto of the late Amenia Conference that we may hope for proffer of fraternity from the white laboring man. Capitalism, mindful of its own best welfare, will accord the Negro as much opportunity as the white laborer will permit it to do.

WASHINGTON HAD THE RIGHT PHILOSOPHY There is still some remaining germs of hope in appeal to the sense of justice and fair play of the American people. Religion, though much the worse for wear, has not yet, like the spearmint on the bed post, lost all of its flavor of benefience. I can see one ray of hope the enricheling gloom, and that is the old Booker Washington gospel of having the race root itself in the soil. If there be little hope in the domestic service from which we are being driven or in trade and manufacturing pursuits where the arrogance of white labor more and more tends to reduce the Negro to a minimum, the only remaining large scale occupation where race prejudice is least effective is on the farm. Hard and uninviting as the rural prospect is, it furnishes the best outlook. The race slogan should be, if not Back to the Land," at least "Stay on the Land."

As I See It As I See It By GARLAND MACKEY ABILITY, NOT POLITICS Ability rather than politics pull should determine the appointment of an expert in the Commerce Department. Various members of the so-called Negro advisory committee have suggested practically every sort of person for the job including doctors and insurance men. It is unfortunate such a position is connected with patronage. The job calls for an expert and a highly technical and trained mind is required for this peculiar work. James A. Jackson, the best qualified man along this particular line had to give way when the party that brought him into the position was defeated. We suggest to the Secretary of Commerce, that the post should be filled through the Civil Service and taken out of politics as a man in such a responsible position should be well qualified and not the butt of political parties. Dr. Ambrose Caliver, in the Interior Department, is an example of what we are trying to secure in the Commerce Department. Dr. Caliver can continue to render invaluable service to the country and his race without the spectre of a change of administration coming to force him from his post. None of the candidates suggested by the advisory committee appear qualified for the position. EYES ON THE ALLIANCE Washington is watching the New Negro Alliance. This group of young men have started an old thing in a new way. They have also taken a leaf from the Communists' notebook. They are not afraid of being arrested. Advocates of communism have demonstrated that much good can be accomplished through a policeman. Being arrested for a cause not only creates sympathy, but places one in the light of a martyr. Hundreds have been won to the Alliance since the arrest of two members last week. Not only has the A and P Stores employed two youths in their stores, but other chain stores are watching the outcome with an eye to give jobs to Negroes in stores that are largely patronized by members of the group. The first goal of the Alliance has been reached. Although it has been said that the two clerks are not on full time and do not change money, it is noticeable that they are behind the counters and doing work other than menial. This is a step forward and a significant victory. ROBERT AND RADIO Vice-President F. M. Russell of the National Broadcasting Company here attempted to apologize for the remarks made by Assistant Secretary of the Treasury L. W. Robert, Jr., last week when a delegation called on the radio official to protest against the remarks made by Robert over Station WMAL last Monday night. Mr. Russell was most cordial in receiving the protest committee and hinted that he was expecting a more militant group. It appears that white people here had been bombarding the studio with protest calls against the lewd stories told by Robert. In fact, it was gathered that more whites had been protesting than colored. Like most Southernns, Robert attempted to placate the people here by telling them that he was o.k. by Negroes and if they don't believe it, ask his cook or butler, and in his case he sent a letter which he had written to a group of architects telling them he was all right and had nothing against their organization because they were colored. In the Realm of Books By C. LESLIE FPAZIER "Along This Way," the autobiography of James Weldon Johnson, was published Monday, October 2, by the Viking Press, 18 Eats 48th Street, New York. In the book, Mr. Johnson traces in detail his early life in Florida, his education at Atlanta University, his literary work, his song lyric writing, his consular service in Venezuela, his work for fourteen years as secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and his experience as a member of the American delegation to the Institute of Pacific Relations in Kyoto, Japan in 1929.

Woodson, Director of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, Inc., announces that his book, "The Negro Professional Man and the Community" dealing particularly with the social and economic conditions bearing on Negro physicians and lawyers, is complete and Prisons and Prisoners BY CLIFFORD C. MITCHELL CRIME AND PRISONERS CRIME AND PRISONERS In these days when our headlines are blazoned with so much crime and brutal atrocities it seems paradoxical that so much attention should be focused on rehabilitating prisoners. But it is the same old story of misdirected human energy. The populace pays so little attention to the real cause of crime and then wonders why their charitable and benevolent, and in some instances most progressive, methods of penology do not solve the crime situation. There really should be no mystery to this whatever. I once talked to a man who had spent some time in an asylum and he told me that one of the tests they used to determine the sanity of a patient was to give him a broom and put him in a room, where a running faucet was flooding the room with water and then instructing the patient to sweep the room dry. If the patient commenced and kept on sweeping the water out but leaving the faucet running, he certainly was a logical candidate for treatment; but if the patient first shut off the running water and then started to clean the room he was no aspirant for permanent lodging in that particular asylum. Yet, that is the way our crime situation and prisoners are being handled. We take the human derelicts after they have been swept over the dam and try to resuscitate them, but while we are working on them there are a dozen others just entering the floodgates. Frankly, the whole economic system is wrong, and despite all flashes of remarkable recovery plans we are getting nowhere fast. It has been said that criminals are born, but in this age and time criminals are made. The system of greed that is the motivating power of almost every activity in America is the breeder of our crime conditions. Prisons and prisoners are just a by-product of such a system and do not in any sense represent actual crime conditions. When custom is so interpreted that those who enjoy the material things of life are those who have "possession" of material wealth and not those who have earned or merited material wealth, then it is no wonder that crime flourishes. The question, boiled down, usually is, "Have you get anything?" Not, "How did you get it?" And those who have "got it" are usually not those who are clustering our prisons, yet they are the real breeders of crime, for everything they have achieved has been the result of greed, and while they were achieving greed were leaving its imprint on all those with whom they came in contact and being brainy and wise, they have steered clear of the pitfalls that the lesser human who is neith脑ny or wise has found himself enmeshed in his picayune attempt to satisfy his greed. Just think of such a pititable condition of affairs when people can work, honestly, efficiently and loyally for the best years of their life, for an individual, firm, or even some of the governmental units, er brainy or wise has found himself enmeshed in his picayune attempt to satisfy his greed. lives, for an individual, firm, or even some of the governmental units, and then as old age nears them they are ruthlessly cast out because of their age, a change in politics, or a change in ownership or policy of the firm, etc. Why should an offspring emulate the father's footsteps when such a striking example of ingratitude and greed is before him. No wonder youth is so all-fired full of "Get it!" without regard to how they get it, for they have seen their own parent struggle all his life only in the end to the denied even the chance of honest livelihood. Such a condition is not very complimentary to our economic structure, yet it is an everyday occurrence and one of the greatest and most prolific breeders of crime. No system that will not reward merit, honesty, loyalty and faithfulness will ever cause a decrease in our crime situation regardless of how the prisoners are subsequently treated. ready for the market. This book, whose facts and information the author and his staff have been compiling since 1928, seeks to define and differentiate the various stimuli between the professional man and the community and those between the community and the professional man. In it is pointed out that the professional man's community is not merely his neighbors as is generally conceded, but those whose social and intellectual suheres coincide with his own mode of thinking and living. These are the persons who constitute the real environment of the individual, and determine his functions beyond the effort of making a living. P.M.C.

SPECIAL FEATURES This week this column is devoted to a serious study of the existing situation in national events concerning and definitely involving the welfare of the Negro race. Here in Washington during these times are being decided issues which will play a tremendous part in the shaping of the future of the American Negro. The United States, definitely pledged to create a new office in its Department of Commerce which will devote its attention to the aiding of Negro business, is working hard in trying to line up a man to take charge of this office. A committee of Negroes has been chosen to look over the situation, report it, and to recommend to the Secretary of Commerce a man to fill this position. This committee has already turned in its report as to conditions among the race, and the officials have praised the report as being one which is far broader than any which they thought they would receive. Thus this committee has done an exceptionally good job in this respect. Nevertheless, Commerce officials advise that the committee has not recommended a man, but it is definitely understood that there are several men under consideration who are being studied, as to their qualifications, and training for this sort of work. It is also known that there will be no large and elaborate office. This is due to the decreased budget upon which the huge Department of Commerce is operating this year, and it will be necessary to keep within the bounds of reason in establishing a new bureau for this work. Eugene Kinckle Jones has great support in his efforts to get the office. T. Arnold Hill is a candidate. Dr. James L. Johnson is a candidate. James A. Jackson is in the running. But indications point to the possible naming of genial Harry H. Pace, Chicago insurance magnate as the man who will give the office the best results. It is a question of doubt as to just when the man will be named. But it is my conclusion, after conference with the "higher-ups," Secretary Roper, Dr. W. L. Thorpe, Chief of the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce; Charles E. Baldwin, head of the Guide of Advisory Committees which are planning for the development of national progress, that the field has now narrowed down to Jones and Harry Pace. Of course, I have written articles for the A.N.P. which list others as possibilities, but later information gathered since those writings have brought out the fact that the field is now cut down to the above-named men. Chances of Dr. Mary Waring in this race are practically nil. No matter what is done, the Negro race must realize that this project is not one which has for its purpose the creating of new jobs for Negroes, but for the establishment of an office which will deal with problems affecting Negro business, in such a way as to be able to offer practical aid, in improving conditions. It is no political setup and it should not be regarded as such. In the end, no matter who is named to the office Negroes throughout the United States must realize that present situations are so acute as to preclude the advisability of raising a howl on account of any person, but that they must get together, put their shoulders to the wheel, and work in harmony and co-operation with the Administration, to make the work of the office a success. It may be that there will be only a chief, and two or three people in it, but it must be remembered that that will be more than we have had in the past, and we should try to do as much with even so small a unit as that, to improve our conditions, and look forward to further expansions, as soon as the improved national situation will permit. This is not propaganda, but sane and sound advice, based upon the practical phases of our present national condition. We must work with the administration, in the interest of the advancement of business among our people, and for the common good of the people of the commonwealth of which we are a part. Of course, we won't have ALL that we expect or want, but that should be no cause for placing stumbling blocks in the way of the progress of what we do get. The Negro in the United States must realize that it is practically impossible for him to ever get all that he wants, and especially now while existing conditions are such as they are. Here is REAL information for you: It is understood, from reliable authorities, that the officials of the NRA are attempting to frame, or work out, some provision for inclusion in the NRA codes which will contain these words: "No employer shall discharge any employee to avoid pay increase to laborers, on account of color." This speaks for itself, and you know what that means to the southern Negro. Another plan under consideration in NRA headquarters is that involving a "differential wage scale" for Negro labor in the South. Sponsors of this plan ad- This Week By HAROLD G. EATON This Week By HAROLD G. EATON TWO KINDS OF JUSTICE? England, like America, believes in the divine right of the Nordica to administer justice (or rather what they think is justice) to the darker nations. But when the table is turned and the blacks hand down decisions involving the liberty of white men—well to England, that's a horse of another color, so to speak. Chief Tshekedi, young British-educated African ruler of the Bamangwota tribe in Bechuana land, Africa, was dethroned and arrested by the British government last week, because he made the "awful mistake" of trying and sentencing one Phineas Machintosh, a vill and lowly white, to a good flogging. The chief's charge against Machintosh was for "living like a native with a native woman." But even in Africa men are blessed with loving and ever-understanding mothers who will go through fire for their sons. Chief Tshekedi had that kind of a mother. She appealed to King George of England to release her son. The king granted her wish. He released her son and reinstated him as chief of the Bamangwota tribe—but only after Tshekedi had admitted that he had done wrong in bringing a white man to trial and promised not to ever do it again. This is the plight of the Negro even in his fatherland—Africa. ****** Such instances typify the opinion of the arrogant white man in regard to his respect for the authorized Negro and that Negroes' right to render decisions other than with his own group. In most of the Southern cities where men of color happened to serve on the police forces, it is not permissible for a Negro officer to arrest whites. He has authority to arrest only members of his race. ****** In the courts we are often made an exception to the general trend of justice when the case involves Negro vs. Negro. Negro murderers many times escape the usual punishment of death with a short prison term when his victim is a Negro. "Let him go with a short prison term and he will kill another n— when he gets out," is the usual verdict of the all-white jury. But when a Negro kills a white man—well you know the answer. Such is justice—if there be such a thing among men. vocate its acceptance rather than have southern white employers fire their colored help to avoid giving them the higher rate of pay. I have just returned from a trip into North Carolina and Virginia, and have talked with many Negro workers, who also prefer this differential to the other extreme of being fired. However, a differential is extremely distasteful, and the NRA heads should take the step needed to show the American Negro that their intention to increase purchasing power by increasing wages will extend to all. This national crisis is too acute to permit any further endurance of that narrow race prejudice which has kept the southern Negro in the shackles of the underdog. It is time that white southerners see themselves in their true light, and give the Negro an opportunity to get somewhere. Perkins by Friday or Saturday of this week you may learn that the codes have been brought around to provide for the exclusion of discrimination against Negroes. The NRA heads are struggling earnestly with this problem which they admit is a serious one! and they are also aware of the tremendous disadvantage to which the southern Negro is put under the codes as they now stand. Talking with Donald F. Richberg, legal counsel for NRA, and his executive assistant, Mr. Keeling, has shown that such provisions may probably meet the legal requirements necessary to properly satisfy the Constitution of the United States, and it is thought that within in a few days some definite statement can be made as to just what will happen. But, if the NRA and President Roosevelt will go to the bat and put such provisions into the codes, they will be doing something for the American Negro which will make them heroes to fourteen million Negro people. This and That There may be enough polish on the men's shoes, but there is too much on their trousers seats. "How much should a girl spend on clothes?" All she can get out of father, is a popular answer. Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth and the life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. (John 14:6.)

The company has 240,000 shares of stock, each valued at $100. The tax alone on the incorporating was $9,600. The largest taken in previously by the office was approximately $400 realized about ten years ago. The fee for the recording of the instrument was the small sum of $2.15, as there are only 1,200 words in perfecting this gigantic corporation. A certified copy of the instrument taken from the record by the corporation netted the government another $2.40. Collection is the Largest Since Establishment of Office The office of the recorder has been running in the red for the past two months, but this enormous fee brings it out of the red for the quarter, July, August, and September. Three incorporators, the minimum allowed by law, who signed the document, were: W. F. Ham, J. H. Hanna, and S. R. Bowen.

OCTOBER 5. 1933 Mrs. Emma Scott's Kin Fight Control of Estate by Non-related Couple Contest Will Presented for Probate Court Asked to Reconvey Residence Deeded to Isaiah Brooks Is the document purporting to be the "last will and testament" of the late Mrs. Emma W. Scott, who died on June 8, after having lived more than four score years, a fake procured by fraud and coercion? This is a question three heirs of the deceased have asked the District Supreme Court to decide for them. In a petition filed, recently, they claimed that a "certain paper writing," dated on May 23, now awaiting probate, is not the last will and testament of Mrs. Scott. Another will, which ante-dates the one around which the litigation is centering, is reported to be in existence. The document around which the battle rages was produced for probate by Isaiah Brooks Moore, who lives with his wife, Mrs. Mary Moore, at 1205 Girard Street, Northwest, premises value at $15,-000, conveyed to them by Mrs. Scott shortly before her death. They are no relation to the deceased. Coercion is Charged In addition to the allegation that the will is a fake, the heirs aver that Mrs. Scott, at the time of its execution, was not of sound mind and memory, or in any respect capable of making a will. They alleged further that the papers purported to be the last will and testament were obtained and executed through coercion upon Mrs. Scott by Mr. and Mrs. Moore. It is contended that her action was not freely and voluntarily given. The heirs ask the court to refuse to probate the document and have a hearing as to its merit before a jury. They also request that a collector be appointed to take charge of the estate, to serve under bond, until further hearing of the matter. The petitioners are represented by Augustus W. Gray, William L. Houston, and Benjamin L. Gaskins. In a more recent petition the heirs are represented by the same counsel in an attempt to have the court reconvey the $15,000 property occupied by the Brooks's to the estate. Brooks Makes Denial In his answer to the heirs filed last week, Mr. Brooks asserts that the document date on May 8 is the last will and testament of Mrs. Scott, and that it was executed in the manner required by law. He denies that the elderly woman was of unsound mind, or that the will was made under any influence, or obtained through fraud. Mr. Brooks is represented by Arthur Lambert and George L. Hart, Jr., both white. Provisions of "Will" The paper dated on May 23, a few days after Mrs. Scott signed over the Girard Street premises to Mr. Brooks, bequeathed to him and his wife all household effects, jewelry, and other personal property. The accusing heirs are: Gloria Shad, niece, Capitol Heights, Pleasant, Md.; Carrie West, niece, Capitol Heights, Pleasant, Md.; and Richard Johnson, Nayor, Md. Mattie M. Johnston, a niece, of 2009 Thirteenth Street, Northwest, was willed $200. Nellie M. Turner, a niece, of 588 Presstman Street, Baltimore, was bequeathed a lot in Anacostia. The Nineteenth Street Baptist Church was to receive $100 "out of memory to her husband," the late John R. Scott. A cousin of the husband, Frank Scott, was left $100; Isaac Scott was willed $200. Gloria Shadd, one of the petitioners, was bequeathed only $5, while Carrie West, another petitioner, was cut to $1. The residue of the estate was to be distributed equally among the following relatives: Nellie Turner, Mamie Tapscott, Warrenton, Va.; Arthur Ford, Bernice Johnson, Fannie Sylvester, and Emma Scott Gilbert, a god-child. Got $40,000 in Sale Mrs. Scott was preceded in death by her husband several years ago. He was well known throughout the city and in court circles, having been a messenger for one of the District Supreme Court justices for a long period of time. The Scotts owned, at one time, the Lake View Park, a pleasure resort on the Conduit Road. Mrs. Scott sold the park after the death of her husband, and is reported to have received $40,000 cash for the premises. She is also reputed to have bought the Girard Street property with a portion of this money, paying cash. Mr. Moore was employed at Freedmen's Hospital as steward more than 15 years ago. He left there during the war and later worked at some down-town employment. Poets, artists, etc., used to be crowned with laurel wreathes, but personally we should prefer to be crowned with one of the nice fall hats sold in the stores. Burns which he received while trying to extinguish the flames on a burning truck September 26, proved fatal to Shirley Brock, 33, of 613 N Street, Northwest, a truck driver, at Freedmen's Hospital Saturday at 7 a.m. Brock received the burns when a lighted match was carelessly tossed too near gasoline which a fellow worker was using to clean the truck. As the liquid blazed up, Brock attempted to put it out, He suffered second and third degree burns of the chest, abdomen, legs, arms and back. He also swallowed some of the flames. The accident occurred at a coal yard in the 600 block of Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest SOUTHERNERS ARE ATTACKING PAST OF JUDGE LOWELL SOUTHERNERS ARE ATTACKING PAST OF JUDGE LOWELL Jurist Who Refused to Send Crawford to Virginia Holds South's Hatred BOSTON, Mass. (ANP)—Square jawed Federal Judge James A. Lowell may have no fears of Southern members of Congress, but when they get through with him, they don't intend for him to look the same. These Southern gentlemen have gone snooping around into Judge Lowell's past and the gleeful announcement was made this week that they had made another "find" to include in the evidence to be placed against him before the judiciary committee of the House of Representatives which is charged with investigating his judicial conduct to determin whether he should be impeached. It will be recalled that resentment against Judge Lowell first flared up in connection with the attempts of Virginia to extradite George Crawford, wanted for the murder of two white women. Judge Lowell ordered Crawford's release on writs of habeas corpus, petitioned by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. He took the position that the indictment of Crawford was illegal because Negroes are excluded from juries in Virginia and the United States Supreme Court has previously reversed convictions obtained in courts where such exclusion is practiced. "Why hold the man and waste time and money when it is certain that any conviction obtained will be reversed by the Supreme Court?" Judge Lowell asked. Judge Lowell's ruling was later reversed by the Court of Appeals. The new case against him involves his conduct in some of the famous Jamaica (Jake) ginger cases, in which there were violations of the pure food laws. Two men who were brought before Lowell were tried and convicted of sending the extract into Kansas, where many people drank it and suffered from it. It is now alleged that the sentences imposed by Lowell did not suit the gravity of the crime.

Hides Pocketbook Under Mattress; Can't Find It Mrs. Louise Gray, 756 Hobart Place, Northwest, was very much perturbed when she entered her bedroom/Saturday and missed her purse containing $10. She reported the alleged theft to No. 10 Pracinct police. Officers came on the run and on investigation it was found that Mrs. Gray had hidden her pocket-book under the mattress where it was located. RETIRES AFTER 41 YEARS OF SERVICE Miss Katie Martin Honored by Fellow Employees Miss Katie Martin, an employee of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing was retired September 18 after 41 years of service in the government. Miss Martin who lives in the 300 block of New York Avenue, is at present in Chicago where she is visiting friends and attending the Country of Progress. She was given a large bouquet of flowers and many individual presents by her former associates. An original poem was read by Mrs. Iola Neal Seall, of the plater section of the bureau. The poem follows: Forty-one years of faithful service, You've served this government through, Faithful to the call of duty, Efficient, prompt and true. You worked eight years on the You worked eight years on the hand press hand press, Stamp perforation too You were sent to the U.S. Treasury, Expert counting you did do.

SCHOOL BOARD SEEKS TO CURB SKATING PERILS Police Aid Sought; Five Appointments Approved; One Teacher Quits The increasing number of fatalities and accidents among school children skating in the streets, due to the automobile menace, was brought to the attention of the School Board, Wednesday, by Mrs. Mary McNeil, member, in an effort to lessen the hazards. Declaring that the fad was quite healthful and recording herself as not wishing to curtail the enjoyment of the children, Mrs. McNeil suggested that the District Commissioners be requested to have certain streets roped off at certain hours. Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent, explained that the roping off of streets around schools during recess time had tended to cause traffic congestion and that there was a tendency against blocking streets. Upon his suggestion, the board instructed the superintendent to confer with Major Ernest Brown, superintendent of police, and the officials of the traffic bureau in order to see what could be done to curb the danger. The names of three persons who had passed a qualifying examination in certain subjects, submitted by Assistant Superintendent Howard Long, chief examiner, were approved by the board. They were: Mrs. I. C. Malvan, shorthand, type-writing and clerical practice; N. W. Cuney, printing in the vocational school, and P. J. Williams, teacher of biology in the senior high school.

Juano Hernandez, who portrays this character, did not come up to expectations on’ the Howard Theatre stage last week because of lack of volume in his voice, but his acting was good. Mr. Hernandez, in commenting to an A.N.P. man upon the success of the radig performances, gave the bulk of the credit for the success to his case, which included Richard Huey, Richard Bennett, Maurice Ellis, Georgia Burke, and the peer of Negro actresses, Miss Rose Mc- Clendon, He said that the cast was originally intended to work in a show which would star Miss Me- Lendon, but ‘that the producers were unable to find a script which would suit, so they hit upon the idea of using Roark Bradford's “John Henry” sketches, and took the book rights, and placed him in the ace-role, tees Richard B.

Mr. Harrison stated that his plans for the future are to act in “The Green Pastures” before the people of the South, where he taught: for many years. ‘As master of ceremonies, Mr. Harrison was quite at ease and talked freely.

So good was he that he was immediately drafted into. the current stage production featuring “John Henry,” Baron Lee, and the Hardy Brothers’ or- chestra.,and given a feature spot ‘on the bill, with a juicy contract.

He also called attention to several major directions in which, recently, Howard has advanced toward higher levels of competence. As reason for special congratulation, Dr. Johnson called attention to the favorable attitude of the present Federal administration toward Howard University and the encouragement which has constantly been given the trustees in carrying forward their plans for development of the school.

S SERVICE Wallach Place, N.W. tur 3-5-5-4 Kin of Democratic Boss Gets Recorder of Deeds Post BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL THIRD RELATIVE OF COSTELLO IN COAGE'S OFFICE White Man Gets Deputy Recorder of Deeds appointment When Democratic National Committeeman John F. Costello named 27-year-old Rinald Grady, white, to the office of Deputy Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia, under Jefferson S. Coage, recorder of deeds, it made the third member of Costello's family to go into Mr. Coage's office. The other two office-holders are Mrs. Killeen, first deputy recorder; Grady, second deputy recorder, who replaces Richard S. Thompkins, recently resigned; and a Mrs. Costello, who is chief comparer. The two white women are sisters-in-laws to Mr. Costello. Rumors are afloat here now that Costello is intending to put a white woman of the District, also a relative, in as recorder to succeed Mr. Coage in 1934. These reports are not substantiated, however. It is also claimed that Dr. James L. Johnson, of Columbus, Ohio, is after the job, in spite of the fact that he is also mentioned now as a candidate for the new job to be opened in the Commerce Department. Relatives on Job Incidentally, while reports are flying thick and fast, there is one which keeps seeping through and which avers that the Republican Recorder of Deeds is "playing ball" with Costello. Once, it is said, Costello "had no use for Coage," but on the opening of the economy period Coage appointed Mr. Costello's sister-in-law to the post of first deputy recorder, while firing several of his employees who had from seven to fifteen years of service in the office, to make room for what have been termed "favorite appointees." No matter what the rumors say, Costello's sister-in-law is still holding her $3,700 per year job, and Republican Coage is still holding his $5,600 political plum. ```markdown ``` I sburger Makes Good in Washington, D.C. From the Progress-Index. (Petersburg, Va.) Sunday, October 1 News has reached the city that Garland Mackey, a native Petersburger, has mounted a round higher in journalism, in service for the Washington Tribune. Mr. Mackey is a product of Peabody High School, this city, and also St. Paul Normal and Industrial Institute, Lawrencville. Some few years ago he plied at the art of journalism, in a local Negro weekly, the Weekly Review, which was edited by his brother, Arthur Mackey. More recently he was the sports editor of the Afro-American, a leading Negro weekly of Baltimore Md. He also filled the same position with the Baltimore Herald, another Negro Wee'le. The type of his writing was so impressive on the readers in the sports world that his service was sought by the Washington Tribune of Washington D.C. The noted writer served credibly for five years in the capacity of the sports writer and at times at other feature displays of the newspaper, as the city editor, until he was promoted last week to the office of managing editor of the Washington Tribune. His many friends in his home town are proud of his achievements in the world of journalism, and at the same time hope for him much success in his field of labor. Membership Campaign Being Waged by Local Odd Fellows Membership Campaign Being Waged by Local Odd Fellows The Green Mountain Lodge Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, is in the midst of a membership campaign.

MARRIES VIRGINIAN John Forcey, 33, of 2017 Sherman Avenue, Northwest, was granted a license, last week, to marry Ms. Ann Epps, of Richmond, Va. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. R.M. Williams, master of the Ashley M.E. Church STARDUST By EDWARD LAWSON When Nita Alden, night club entertainer, marries a "Marquis" and quits her job, Starling Grant steps into her place and becomes an overnight sensation. When Nita finds that her husband is a fake she joins the club and selflessly a new job in a night club operated by a young man named Jimmie Marks. She falls wholly in love with Berry Rob, a Harlem columnist who styles himself "The Mad Baron of Blub," and he admits he cares for her, but only "just a little." One night she goes driving with Mimmie, and Rob, out with Nita, firals she kissing in a promontory parking space high above the Hudson, to do with her. Starling quits her night club job and signs a contract with J. Philip Harlan, president of Federal Studios, to make a feature moving picture. She finds that Rob has been assigned to work with Earl Earle, a young song writer whom she at once begins to like. Earl writes a song for her picture, titled "My Heart-Breaking Man," and Phil Harlan predicts that it will prove a sensation. Somewhere, high above the deserted streets of Harlem a clock struck midnight. Starling, in evening dress and wrap, stepped out of Earl Grange's car. In a moment Earl was by her side. She held him just a moment at the curb. "Before you," she sailed, with a sweep of her arm, "stands the Blue Bird Inn, better known as Pappa Hoskins's place. Once upon a time my name was in the lights you see above your head." Earl looked up at the flickering letters. "Nita Alden," he spelled out. "Know her?" starling asked. "Seems as though I've heard of her. Isn't she a blues singer? Didn't she marry into royalty, or something?" Starling nodded. "And divorced her husband four weeks later?" "That's right." "Now I know. I read about it in the papers." He took her arm. "Shall we go in?" "Let's." They found a table and sat down. Earl ordered something to eat, then for a while they danced. At half-past twelve the floor show started. At one o'clock Nita Alden sang. "Is that," Earl asked, "the great Nita Alden?" His voice held keen disappointment. "I wouldn't say that. Her voice was once considered beautiful." "Then evidently she hasn't taken care of it. Notice how little applause she's getting." "Maybe she isn't feeling well tonight." Earl shook his head. "That isn't it." he said. "I know a good voice when I hear one. . ." Starling tugged at his arm. "Look who's coming," she said. Pappa Hoskins, hustling about the scantily filled room, greeting his friends and customers, seemed overjoyed to find Starling among them. "What are you doin' these days, girlie?" he asked. "Wouldn't you like to come back and work for me? I'd pay you almost anything you asked." Starling shook her head slowly. "I'm sorry, Pop." she said, "but I'm doing a movie right now—at the Federal Studios. Maybe when that's finished—" She caught herself up short as Nita Alden came out from the stage wings, seated herself atop a property piano, and began a new song. The three of them listened, expectantly yet critically, while she sang. But this song proved no better than the last, and the applause was even more meagre. There was no doubt about it; Nita Alden was slipping. Pappa Hoskins was apologetic. "She hasn't been herself for the last month or so," he said. "Ever since she divorced that bogus marquis of her's-" Suddenly he snapped his fingers. "I've got an idea," he cried. "Starling, won't you let me introduce you to this crowd? Won't you sing just one song for them? I'll save the night for me." Starling looked at Earl. "Would you mind?" he asked. you mind? she asked. He smiled. "Not at all, Star. We could try out the new one, 'My Heart-Breaking man.' "All right." Starling turned to Pappa Hoskins. "Pop," she said, "this is Earl Grange, the song-writer. He's just finished a new blue number for my picture. Would you like to have us do that together?" "Perfect!" Pappa Hoskins rubbed his hands together. "Come along. I'll let these folks know who you are. . ." Applause shook the house as the last blue notes of the song died out. It thundered unceasingly until Starling had responded with an encore, and then another. Still the patrons were reluctant to let her go. Pappa Hoskins found it necessary to spiral her away back-stage in order that the second floor show might go on. "Star," he said, "this place will never be the same again until I get you back. I thought Nita was what the people wanted, but I was wrong. Nita's getting old; her voice isn't what it used to be—" "Is that so?" Pappa Hoskins whirled to face an irate hundred pounds of dark young womanhood. A strange fire seemed to burn in Nita's eyes, and her face was tense with hatred. Pappa Hoskins tried to hold her off, but she brushed him away, her WHAT HAS HAPPENED CHAPTER VII Starling nodded. "And divorced h weeks later?" "That's right." Starling nodded lean brown fingers clawing out for Starling's face. For a moment the two girls grappled furiously. Finally someone succeeded in pulling them apart. It was Earl. Distressed, he looked down at Starling's tear-stained face, her torn evening gown. "I'm sorry that our evening had to end like this," he said. "I guess I'd better take you home." "It wasn't your fault, Earl," she assured him. "It just couldn't be helped." She slipped her arm into his for support. Profuse in his apologies, Pappa Hoskins accompanied them to the street. "Come to see me at any time, Star," he said, "and I'll have a job for you at any price you name. Please don't hold against me what happened tonight." CHAPTER VIII "Let's go out together this evening, Star." Rob Berry begged. There's something I want to tell you. "Earl's coming into town tonight. I have a date with him." "Tomorrow, then?" "All right. Make it after eight o'clock. I don't get through at the studios until six." "Say eight-thirty, then?" "Tell me feet." "That's perfect." For once, Rob was punctual on a date. Promptly at eight-thirty the following night, he rang the doorbell of Starling's apartment. "I'll be ready in a minute," she called. "Don't rush." Half an hour later, parked far uptown along Riverside Drive, Rob took her in his arms. She tried hard, but could not bring herself to resist. "I haven't been very kind to you, have I, Star?" he said. She was surprised. "What do you mean?" "I mean, I haven't been treating you very decent these last few weeks. I've been running around with other girls, and—" "But what was wrong about that, Rob?" she broke in. "There was never anything more than friendship between the two of us." Roo hooded. "I thought that, too," he said, "for a long, long time. I thought that you were just like any other girl—that I could have you when I wanted you and forget about you when I didn't. But it never seemed to work, Star. You were so different from the rest. I discovered that I needed you—more than anything. I discovered that you were the only girl I really cared about." "Oh, Rob—" "I discovered that I loved you, Star." He drew her closer to him and kissed her. Her body was pliant and unyielding. Her hand went about his shoulder. He held her away and smiled at her. "You love me, too, don't you. Star?" "You know it, Rob. You know I always have." "I want you to marry me, honey. I want to give up all this running around. I want to settle down." She looked at him in wonder. "Do you really mean it?" "Of course, darling. I want you to marry n.e." "Oh, Rob—" "Just name the date, Star." Happily, she considered. "We'd better wait until I've finished my picture," she said. "As soon as that's over, we'll begin to make our plans...." **** Production work on Federal Studios' feature film was nearing completion when J. Philip Harlan called Starling into his office. Assuming his most business-like tone of voice, he informed her of the necessity for a conference with her—at once "I want to talk to you about your new starring contract," he said. "We'll have to work fast, because everything must be settled tonight. Tomorrow I have to go before the executive committee and tell them what I've done, and I want to have a good report. Go down to your dressing room, change your clothes, and come back as soon as you can. I'll call a restaurant and have supper for two sent over. We can eat and talk at the same time." "But, Mr. Harlan — please — I have an engagement for this evening." J. Philip Harlan flared. "Isn't a starring contract of any more importance to you than a mere engagement?" Humbly, she nodded. Humbly, she nodded, "All right," she said. "I'll be back in half an hour." Hurrying down to her dressing room, she quickly changed into her street clothes, then stepped into a telephone booth. Dialing the num- ber of the paper on which Rob worked when he was not writing scenarios, she waited fifteen min- utes while a switchboard operator searched the building for him. But her wait was in vain. "He isn't here," the operator told her finally. Starling thought quickly. "Will you give him a message?" she asked. "Certainly." "Then tell him that Miss Grant called. Tell him that I am at the studio, tied up in a conference with Mr. Harlan. Ask him to come by for me about nine o'clock tonight." "Is that all?" "Yes—and thank you." THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1933 The clock on the wall of J. Philip Harlan's lavish o ce struck nine times. Starling sat up with a start. Phil Harlan smudged out a cigarette and added it to a mounting pile of half-smoked butts in an ash-tray on his desk. Starling stood up with a suddenness that startled him. "Do you realize," she said, "that we've been here more than two hours, and haven't said a word about that contract yet?" Phil Harlan smiled blandly. "I'd much rather talk about you," he said. "About me?" "Certainly. I'm very much interested in you." "Interested!" She laughed at the word. "I mean it, Star," he insisted. "I like you. Why do you think I kept you here tonight, anyway? I don't give a rap about your contract; Sam Freeman will see that that's fixed up in time—at your own price. But I do care about you—" Someone knocked on the door. Starling turned to open it, but stopped, petrified, as she remembered her telephoned message to Rob. What if he should find her here—alone with Harlan? Phil hastily adjusted his tie. "Come in," he said. The door opened, and Rob stepped in. He halted on the threshold and looked in evident distaste about the room. He could not help but see the dirty dishes that cluttered Phil's desk, or the pile of cigarette stubs. . . . He nodded a curt greeting to Phil. "Maybe," he said half-apologetically, "I shouldn't have butt in like this." "It was perfectly all right," Phil assured him suavely. "Miss Grant and I had just about finished our little conference." Rob turned to Starling. "Are you ready to go home?" "Yes, Rob, in just a minute. Good night, Mr. Harlan." "Good night." In Rob's car they rode for a long time in silence. Rob seemed totally disgruntled, sullen. "Did you get your contract fixed up?" he asked finally. Starling shook her head. "We never got around to it . . . " then, with awful suddenness, she realized what she had said. Don't miss the fifth installment of this fast-moving serial story. You'll find it on this page next week. BEAUTY HINTS By NINA TEMPLE SALTY MILK BEAUTIFIER Never throw away sweet milk that is left in your glass at meal time. Just add a little salt to it and use it as a face wash, for it is a wonderful beautifier. A woman whose face is as soft as velvet and whose pores are as fine as a baby's told me that she discovered this secret just by accident and that since that time she has remade her complexion to the complete wonder of her friends. WALKING FROM THE HIP The Hindoo maidens who carry pitchers on their heads are noted for their graceful stride. They learn to walk from the hip in order to keep the pitcher balanced. If you would attain this easy carriage, practice with a glass of water on your head. You will find that the waist is still but for a graceful swaying like a supple willow.

Colored Children Win Prizes at World's Fair CHICAGO.—(ANP)—Five little colored girls participated in the doll parade staged at A Century of Progress here last Saturday and Sunday. There were 3,000 entries of little girls who trudled their decorated baby carriages along before the 10,000 spectators who braved the chilly weather to watch them. The colored children made a remarkable showing, four out of the five winning prizes, for the beauty of their doll carriages and their own attractive appearance. The four winners each of whom won $5.00 were Florence Regis Faulkner, 1017 N. Franklin Street, Betty Jane Thomas, 8710 South Parkway, Alfreda Jackson, 1044 N. Franklin Street, and Precilla Hollerman, 4685 Wabash Avenue. Only time we can get the boys interested in the garden is when their football is kicked in there. Chols Seys Chois Seys The dance last Thursday night held by the Black and White Circle Club at Murray Casino was well attended. The winners of the several prizes awarded were Miss Mildred Johnson, Miss Gladys Gass, Mr. Edward Perry, Mr. Joseph Queen, Mr. William Venney, Mr. Laurence Green, Mr. James Bell, Mr. Joseph Brown, and Mr. Robert Gray. And did Bill Baldwin play? And how? See you Thursday nite. * * * * Dear Mr. Chols, please tell me in your column what is a bass horn? Signed Stupid. Dear Stupid, there are two kinds of bass horns. One is called a tuber, and the other is called anything you are big enough to call it; and you will find it at Third and R Streets on skates. Hot stuff. And Dear Brother Harry Renfro and his storm and strife were out skating—which is just like taking a sandwich to a banquet. But it cost a great deal more 'cause it cost him five. But, Son, they can- not do that. * * * * Dear Mr. Chols, does skating help a person to reduce? Signed, Fats. Dear Fats, skating does help to reduce because my storm and strife goes skating every evening and when I come home to dinner I have to walk about a mile to find her and I am reducing nicely. * * * * Dear Mr. Chols, please tell me why the ex-prize fighter hangs a- round the cloak room so much? Signed, John Wood. Dear John, maybe he see's red. * * * * Dear Mr. Chols, what happened to the Gray Goose? Don't know, Son, but you might send a letter to Pansy and find out. And believe it or not—Thomas Hamilton am right back where he started from. Walking down Florida Avenue, met Rudolph Branson and that old broad smile of his, and believe me, folks, the boys of the American Legion—the James Reese Europe Post, are on their way to Chicago. Here's good luck to the boys. And now to get down by the Casino way. There we find dear Brother Edwin Leak sound asleep. Come around next week, Son, we are going to give away some blankets. And then when you stop to think love IS a wonderful thing 'cause it makes you sigh and it makes you cry and it makes you hug and kiss right on the dance floor where everybody can see you. Hold what you got, Flora, don't let go Hotsy. Then there was Elmer Peyton and his headache. Whether she was number one or number two I don't know, but, bonehead, you will have to make them wear numbers. How am I to tell them. Just suppose I had kept out the wrong one? Dear Friend, I cannot say anything 'about Tommy Myles 'cause he am my friend. But watch your step, Son. And Fess Williams and his band will be at the Casino Friday night. I'll be seeing you. And then I met Andrew Hogan and his dog on U Street and I whistled and both of them turned around; but you cannot fool Chols, I knew Andrew by his uniform. Saw Dan Gary and his Lincoln with the Alonzo Collins and the Duke. You ask is it true. Just ask the Duke Elgin. And now maybe some of the folks on Third will answer these questions: Were you ever a child? Did you ever like to skate? Have you live dollars to pay for skating? Have you any children? Do you know that skating is a healthy exercise? Dear friend, if you know these things and you want to be fair why call the police and tell them that the skaters are disorderly. Will the mail carrier on Third Street near R kindly answer these questions? And now Hester of the Blue Birds says, "Just you hear them and if you don't hire them—then Glory." And, folks, he knows. Nufu. Public School News Cardozo High School Seventy-six pupils constitute the Greater Cardozo High School Orchestra which had its beginning last year. Of this number fifteen are new pupils. The orchestra is directed by Felix Weir and Arthur Smith. French, orchestral music, and printing and duplicating have been added this semester to the courses offered at Cardozo. Miss Annie E. Duncan and Miss Belmira Nunes are now teaching French; Felix Weir, conductor of the Cardozo Orchestra, will engage in teaching orchestral music; Maurice C. Clifford is the instructor in printing and duplicating. Through the efforts of the members of the Home Visitation Service of Cardozo many pupils have come back to school this semester. Each member of the service group is assigned a special "beat" to cover in his neighborhood. Miss Leanna F. Johnson is the sponsor of this organization. Mrs. B. C. Reason, teacher of biology in Cardozo High School, has received an odd collection of new models and charts for students to observe during laboratory hours. The models show the construction of the honey bee, leaf, and flowers, pistil and stamen. The charts give the complete development of hydra, lepidoptera, orthoptera, and insects both beneficial and harmful to agriculture. There also are live specimens such as the lepidoptera and orthoptera. The journalism class, which is being taught by Mrs. M. H. Skinner, has begun its work for the season. Each member of the class is a reporter who has been assigned to one or more beats so as to gather news from all the various sources in Cardozo. Mrs. L. L. J. Lovett, instructor in English and public speaking, is convalescing. The first general assembly of the school year, the purpose of which was to welcome the new students, greet the old students, and to give the new students instructions about their school and their duties, was held Monday, September 18. R. N. Mattingly, principal, presided. The girls entering Cardozo for the first time were welcomed in a special assembly for them by Miss Jennie E. Mustapha, assistant principal. The Cardozo High School Cafeteria had a successful opening recently, under the new management of Mrs. Harriette B. Epps, who, as a student, was formerly associated with the Armstrong High School Cafeteria. Her assistants are Mrs. Ruth Delyons, Miss Marguerite Thompson, and Mrs. Ellene E. Brown. Section 11A 4, under the guidance of Mrs. M. H. Skinner, organized this week with the following class officers: John Euell, president; Fannie Jernagin, vice-president; Mattie Venson, secretary; Grant Morton, boys' athletic representative; Hortense Robinson, girls' athletic representative; Bernice Ross and Margaret Thompson, representatives to the girls' cabinet. Randall Junior High School As an inspiration to the pupils, two assembly programs have been rendered at the school this year. Under the direction of Mrs. D. G. Ballard and Mr. L. E. Smith, Section 8A-2 presented in recital Mr. R. Todd Duncan, of the Howard University School of Music. Mr. Duncan was accompanied by Mr. Wm. Allen, also of Howard, and rendered the following selections, prefacing each with explanatory remarks which hadded to the pupils' appreciation: (1) Duna by McGill, (2) Danza Danza by Sacchi (3) Sylvia by Speaks, and (4) Song of the Flea by Moussorgsky. At the request of the student body an instrumental selection was also rendered by Mr. Alien. A welcome assembly to the 7A pupils given by students of the upper grades, under the direction of Mrs. F. L. Toms, consisted of an outline of the scope of the activities program, an explanation of the physical outlay of the building, and an introduction to the teachers. Earl Prioleau acted as master of ceremonies, and a response on behalf of the 7A's was made by Haskel Humes. Two new teachers have been added to the faculty this year: Miss N. L. Butcher, who takes the place of Mrs. A. V. W. M Beth, deceased, and Mrs. I. C. Malvan, who is teaching clerical practice and carrying a part-time program at the Margaret Washington Vocational School. Miss V. C. Maxwell, who was absent at the opening of school because of illness, has not as yet been able to return. The faculty and pupils have been very much interested in her recovery and have attempted to express their sympathy in ways that they thought would be pleasing to her. The enrollment at the present time is 761, but it is estimated that the total enrollment before the end of October will be approximately 800. Survey tests have been given to all pupils in the seventh, eighth and ninth grades in arithmetic and reading as the initial tests of the testing program of the school year. Clubs were organized for the first semester as follows: Amusemzer. M. O. M. Walker; Mammoth! Mammoth!

At the first faculty meeting the organization of the year was discussed, and the new teacher, Miss Butcher, introduced. The meeting was followed by a luncheon. The first educational meeting was held October 3, at which time the topic "How to Use the Guidance Courses Most Effectively," was discussed. The discussion was led by Mrs. O. M. Walker, Mrs. L. N. Fitzhugh, and Miss M. A. Milton. At the close of this discussion Dr. H. H. Long addressed the faculty on "The Diagnostic Circle." His address was very interesting and illuminating. Armstrong High School At the Wednesday assembly for boys, Mr. G. David Houston, the principal, talked on problems relating to the school. All senior girls met in the cafeteria Wednesday morning and organized the Big Sisters Club sponsored by Mrs. Orra Spivey, the assistant principal. The following officers were elected: Juanita Robinson, president; Dorothy Fountain, vice-president; Gloria Washington, secretary; and Susie Perkins, treasurer. The film of Harold Lloyd in "Movie Crazy," was presented on Friday afternoon for the benefit of the Big Sisters Club. Miner Teachers' College By RUEUS P TURNER Many fascinating extra-curricular activities were describtd to students at Miner Teachers' College at the Wednesday assembly. William Wormley, a member of the junior class, urged students to ally themselves with the numerous clubs of the school; and Thelma Johnson described each club in detail. Musical entertainment was furnished by Jessie Holloman at the piano and by Richard Carter; Selmon Lewis, a freshman, gave dramatic readings from Dunbar; and Coach Martin presided at the assembly. Freshmen were formally welcomed at last week's assembly by President Eugene A. Clark, who outlined in brief the policies of the institution and directed special attention to the unselfish service of Murtilla Miner. The unusual opportunity afforded by the newly improved library at the college was stressed by the President. Oliver Sims played Gruenfield's Romance in F-sharp major. The enrollment at MTC has now reached 532, topping last year's figure by thirty. A large number of last June's graduates have returned. Barry Farms Citizens Association to Meet The Barry Farms Citizens' Association will resume its annual fall session on Tuesday, October 10 at Hoffman's on Stanton Road, Southeast. The meeting will begin at 8:15 p.m. MARRIES CAROLINIAN Claude Young, 29, of 1122 Columba Road, Northwest, was granted a license to marry Miss Martha Smith, 27, of Statesville, N.C., last week. ELEVEN LOW WAGE CODE (Continued from page 9) ply for permission to do so at the lower wage rates. Old People and Negroes The letter stated the code would apply to "white people who are old, young or infirm in any way, and would also apply to the colored race." So far, none of the codes adopted by the NRA has this licensing section. In a letter to General Johnson, NRA chief, the N.A.A.C.P. commands the reported efforts of the administration to enforce the minimum wage for all, regardless of race, creed or color, and calls attention to the proposed code from Selma, Ala. The association also again urges the appointment of a colored member of the Labor Advisory Board and Consumers' Advisory Board as the best method of securing fair treatment for colored workers. The complete letter from the Selma Manufacturing Company to the Rev. Mr. Hughes, containing the code follows: "Dear Sir: "In accordance with your request, I would say that it is proposed to send a committee to Washington composed of three white men and three colored men to request a specially licensed code reading as follows: Here It Is A minimum rate for a 40-hour week is hereby established for men at $9.50 per week, South; $10.50 per week, North; women: $8.00 per week, South; $9.00 per week, North. Boys and girls over sixteen, not over nineteen, $6.00 per week, South; $7.00 per week, North. All industries employing which desire to employ this specially licensed class under above conditions shall apply to for permission to do so, which body shall license each employer whose claim to operate under the above rates is justified. This code shall be an integral part of each industrial or blanket code and shall not in any way annul the provisions of any industrial or blanket code. "This code would be applicable to white people who are old, young or infirm in any way, and would also apply to the colored race. "Any person desiring to use this code would apply for permission to do so and agree to maintain the wages specified; also the weekly hour rate. No one could operate under this code except by special permission and for giving proper reasons for doing so. "Race's Proner Opportunity" "The adoption of a licensed code of this character will enable people desiring to employ the colored race to do so at a price which will give them a fair chance of securing employment, and I am convinced this is the only plan that will accomplish the result desired and permit the employment of the colored race on an equality with the white race. "It is my opinion that this matter is the most important matter you and your people have ever been called upon to consider, and I trust you will realize that the suggestion to put in this code is for only one reason, and that is to see that the colored race receives its proper opportunity of securing employment. "The committee is expected to leave for Washington immediately, and I earnestly request that you approve this plan so that the committee in going to Washington may feel that they have the entire support of the leaders of the colored race in Selma. "Yours very truly, SELMA MFG. CO., JFAJ. " Miner College Graduates to Attempt Organization There will be a meeting of the 1933 graduates of Miner Teachers' College on Saturday, at twelve o'clock noon, in the college auditorium for the purpose of organizing an Alumni Association. All members of the class are urged to be present. TWELVE HILLSDALES DROP PAIR TO CLOSE 1933 SEASON Fredericksburg Frogs Win Twice Over Washington Nine; Games Close FREDERICKSBURG, Va. — The Washington Hillsdales closed their 1933 baseball season by dropping two close games to the Fredericksburg Frogs, here last Sunday afternoon. The locals took the opening game by a count of 5-4, and then returned to capture the nightcap, 3-2. Both contests were decided in the final frames. It was purely the determination of a superior fighting machine that decided the issue in the pair of contests fought before a large turnout of Virginians at Powell's Stadium. In the first game, the Frogs went into their half of the last inning with the score tied, and in the second encounter, the home boys trailed by one run as they went into the closing stanza. In both instances the winning runs were placed on base and a timely hit pushed them across. Two were out in the last inning of the finale when Gil Bland fumbled a dinky roller off the bat of Scott, local right-fielder. Two successive hits, a double and single, which followed in the order named, turned an imminent visiting victory into defeat. Jimmie Hughes, who hurled the first game for the Hillsdale clan, did a creditable job and deserved a better fate. Three runs scored in the opening inning without the aid of a hit to the outfield, however, made the task too difficult for his mates and him.

Fritz Pollard Predicts Success for Bison-Lion Game ATLANTIC CITY, N.J.—Fritz Pollard, All-American halfback at Brown University almost a decade ago and a dominant figure in national professional football for several years since turning the tassel on his cap, is still just as keen about the game that has brought him national fame. Fritz pan down to the shore Sunday for a few minutes what with his old friends, Sugar Chase, Morris Cain and Dick Lockett, and took the opportunity to look over the huge Atlantic City Auditorium where the Howard-Lincoln game will be played on Thanksgiving night. He was amazed at the outlay and when asked his opinion as to the reaction of the spectators at such a game—a night, indoors—thought that it could be nothing but favorable, as the setting was the most perfect he had observed anywhere and was especially impressed with the fact that regardless of weather conditions it should be a fine game.

REMEMBER that the oldest in the business have plenty of imitators—but no competitors. NEWS OF THE SPORT WORLD HENDERSON HEADS EASTERN BOARD OFFICIALS Physical Education Executive Elected When Kiger Savoy Refuses to Run At the annual meeting of the Eastern Board of O cials held here last week, President A. Kiger Savoy, who has been at the head of that organization, declined to allow his name to be placed for consideration for continuance in office for re-election, although an unanimous preference for him had been expressed by the entire membership of the board, who offered to relieve him of some of the burden of the office. Realizing that he would no longer serve as president the members elected Edwin B. Henderson, director of physical education in public schools, Divisions 10-13, to the vacancy created by Mr. Savoy's declination. The secretary-treasurer, Benjamin (Bennie) Washington, was re-elected. Probationary members: Joseph L. Drew, Vantile C. Harris, Perry L. Jacobs, and Jermit M. Trigg were elected to active members. The name of Harold D. Martin, who has recently moved to the city as director of physical education at Miner Teachers' College, was placed on the membership list. At the meeting to be held in the home of John H. Burr, on Thursday night, October 5, at 8 o'clock p.m., a quiz conducted by him and Mr. Washington will be the initial meeting of ten scheduled for intensive study of the rules by these Eastern Board Officials who are serving every Saturday during the football season. Edgar Westmoreland, who conducted the interpretations meeting in September at Bluefield, W.Va., will review the proceedings at that session. ALL-STARS BEATEN BY BLACK SOX GREEN VALLEY PARK, Va.— Although they fought back with tenacious vigor, the Washington All-Stars, composed of the leading sandlot performers in the District of Columbia and Maryland and nearby Virginia, found themselves no match for the superior play of the crack Baltimore Black Sox, professional outfit in the game at the Green Valley Baseball Park, here, last Saturday afternoon. A large crowd saw the local boys go down to a 9-6 defeat. Jess Hubbard led the entire Monumental City crew, first stringers and all, to the Arlington site with the determination of standing off what they supposed would be a real challenge. Big Tom Richardson, ace of the Baltimoreans' mound corpse, faced the Washingtonians as action was begun. His turn on the hill ended with the score 9-2 in favor of the visitors. The offerings of Laymion Yokely and Country Jones, however, were nicked with surprising consistency by the local talent. Of the six pitchers used by the All-Stars—the work being divided after it was found that the huge Black Sox lead would be too difficult to overcome—Stewart, Bland and Berry appeared to be the most effective, although Bear Bailey showed well in his two-thirds of an inning. Tuskegee Looking Forward to Prosperous Season TUSKEEGE INSTITUTE, Ala. Tuskegee Institute athletic officials predict a large gain in attendance at the football games that the Tigers are scheduled to play this fall. The Tuskegee-Wilberforce game which will be played at Soldier Field, Chicago, Saturday afternoon, October 21, is expected to draw between thirty-five and forty thousand spectators. Tuskegee's opening game with LeMoyne College of Memphis will be played in the Alumni Bowl. Preparations are being made to care for the attendance expected at this game. Livingstone College Votes to Discontinue Football Livingstone College Votes to Discontinue Football SALISBURY, N. C. At a recent meeting of the executive committee of Livingstone College, it was decided definitely that Livingstone would not sponsor inter-collegiate football this fall. The college will, however sponsor inter-collegiate basketball, tennis, and baseball. In the place of varsity football, intra-mural football is being encouraged and a campus league has been formed. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. THURSDAY. OCTOBER 5. 1933 Looking 'em Over by SAM LACY With the Tribune Your writer is taking the liberty, this week, to turn over this column to Dan Parker, sports editor of the New York Mirror, who offers a splendid tribute to a Negro baseball enthusiast and writer in his last Sunday's issue of that paper. If there ever was a square-shooter among white writers of the American Press, Parker easily holds that distinction. The column carried herewith is only one of many opportunities or "breaks" he gives Negroes in his column. Here goes: "Down in the U. S. Veterans' Hospital at Oteen, N.C., is a colored lad named Dave Hawkins, who must be the world's greatest optimist. There is no particular reason for Dave to feel optimistic about anything. He's flat on his back with T. B., contracted during the war in France. He's broke. He's a writer with a facile pen, but has no outlet for his literary brain children. Yet he sends me the most amusing letters, indicating that, though the clouds may be dark overhead for Dave, the sun is shining in his cerebro-cerebellum. From his sick bed, Dave, during the past summer, has helped to promote colored baseball games in two major league parks. He practically organized and carried cut single-handed "Cleveland's One Big Day" for colored baseball players. More recently, he contributed to the success of a similar venture at Comiskey Field in Chicago. Now that I've put you hep to Dave, lend an ear to the wicked idem he slings: "Out at Comiskey Field in Chicago recently the Colored All-Star ball teams played and displayed a brand of baseball that will make them many new and regular customers. "A few more games like that and a few more men like Mr. Comiskey will mean a better day to the colored lads, which in turn will mean another boom in the white spats and pork chop industries, to say nothing of general rehabilitation and economic recovery to 7th Avenue and 135th Street, Harlem, Ltd. "Already several large turnouts to sun-tan games this season have inspired major league park owners to consent to more frequent colored professional ball games in their plants next season when their own teams will be travelling. Out in Cleveland, where the colored teams have been using the Indians' old ball park, announcing a good colored game has been like pulling out a hamburger in a dog house. "Several of the boys whom I nominated for the colored all-star game made the tape in a breeze. game made the tape in a breeze. "Mr. Dick Lundy, who was my ticket for the shortfield position, was out there all arms like two octupuses. "The hero of the day, whom I didn't pick, was the very elephantine Mr. Mule Suttles, truely the Dinosaurus of the Diamond. Besides playing a gang of first base for the Western boys, he aided their cause when he soaped one on the antiseptic side for a clean homer that washed the sacks, breaking a tie and winning the game, thereby making much 'mood indigo' for the boys from the East. I did not pick Mr. Suttles because I had heard all summer he had been suffering from a vaccination on his left arm. After his great feat, though, they say he left the ball park with two of the best-looking brownskins dames in Chicago's Harlem on each arm. Now Mr. Mule Suttles is fascinated on both arms.

SERIES TO GIANTS AS LeDROITS ARE DEFEATED. 4-2 Final of 3-Game Clash Taken by Marylanders; Robinson Fans 14 POMPHREY, Md.-The Huntsville Giants closed a most successful diamond campaign by taking the final and deciding issue of a three-game series with the Droit Tigers on their home grounds, here last Sunday. The score was 4-2. Sinky Robinson, star right-hander of the Huntsville outfit, was in superform, striking out 14 of the Tiger batters. The eight safeties which were combed from his offerings were kept well scattered. Robinson's creditable mound performance was materially aided by the faultless support accorded him by his mates. Big Eg Jeffries, LeDroit ace, no the other hand, was the victim merely because he was facing Robinson and Huntsville when both were right. The lanky Jungaleer right-hander allowed one less hit than his slab opponent, but was unfortunate enough to have two errors committed behind him The Giants closed the season of 40 games with a record of 34 wins and six defeats. Of these Robinson won 19 and lost three, Bob Carter won eight and lost two, and Bill Smart won five and lost one.

West Kentucky's plucky eleven was the victim of a sustained attack which netted the local Collegians a 94-0 victory. Head Coach Graves started his second string material and their efforts were good for one touchdown in the opening quarter. Beginning the second period, however, the Force mentor pushed in his first team, and at the close of their term the count had been run up to 82-0. The final quarter saw the reserves return to action. Jack Hart's 25 points led the scorers. With Bluefield, Kentucky State, Tuskegee and Langston on successive Saturdays, the Bulldogs are facing one of the stiffest schedules in colored American collegiate football circles. However, the fighting spirit which prevails in the Wilberforce camp bids fair to carry the Green and Gold high in the final rankings of national teams. WILBERFORCE WEST KENTUCKY J. Henderson . . .

Two well-balanced teams were placed on the field by the Crimson and Black mentor, and smoothness characterized the play of both. The visitors put up a game fight but the overwhelming odds which they faced were too much for them. The Poets counted in each of the four quarters. Two touchdowns were accompanied in the final period when the locals unleashed an attack that was not to be denied. On only two of the five occasions following touchdowns did the Dunbar team's attempt to add the extra point fail. The invaders scored in the third period. DUNBAR NAT. TR. SCHOOL Brooks L.E.

Maryland Odd Sox Capture First of Championship Series VISTA, Md.—The Lanham All-Stars (white) dropped the first of a three-game series for the championship of Prince George's County, Md., Sunday, when the Maryland Odd Sox, colored representatives of Laurel, took their measure to the tune of 2-1. The game was a humdinger from start to finish with the Odd Sox counting their two runs in the second frame. The losers tallied in the eighth.

The Pigs captured the opening game of the series last Sunday by a score of 2-0. Starting time is set for 2 o'clock sharp. A crowd of more than 1,500 persons looked on as the Sunday engagement was played with Lefty George Smith, veteran Negro port-sider, pitching nobly. It was not until the final inning that the white players were able to count off the deliveries of the stellar southpaw. Two hits and clever base-running accounted for those scores. Doug Smith, promoter of the affair, is anticipating a crowd equally as large as, if not surpassing that which witnessed the first game. Preparations are being made to handle twice as many, in EAGLES OUTPLAY BUT LOSE TO HAMPTON EAGLES OUTPLAY BUT LOSE TO HAMPTON North Carolinians Best Virginia Rivals, Only to Be Nosed Out DURHAM, N.C.—Although outclassed and outplayed in every department of the game, the Hamptonians managed to eke out a victory over the North Carolina Eagles on the college park field yesterday afternoon by the score of 7 to 10. The game was closely fought throughout and hundreds of spectators cheered enthusiastically as their favorites trampled up and down the field. The outstanding work of Quarterback Malone, of the Eagles, kept the Pirates on defense practically the entire game, and it was late in the second period before the Pirates finally forced their way to a scoring position from where Carter managed to tally. He accounted for the touchdown by means of his battering plunge through the center of the line after Richmond and Edwards, his teammates, carried the ball to the one-yard line Richmond placed-kicked for the extra point. Taking to the air early in the second half the Eagles twice hurled their way to the Pirates' one-yard line. The first threat came when the famed pony express backfield, led by the passing and running of Malone, smartest field general in Negro football, placed the ball on the Hampton one-yard line. The chance to score was lost by bumbles. Hampton kicked out. After a short period of mid-field play, Malone again opened u with his bullet-like passing. A pass was completed from Malone to Holmes, who raced to the one-yard strip, before being hurled out by a Pirate tackler. But Hampton held for downs.

Hunt, former Hampton warrior, with his first lieutenant, Colier C. Lewis, who also hails from Booker T.'s alma-mater, seems these days to have the smile that won't come off. In his three seasons as head coach of the Downingtown football squad, he has never started out with such promising material as he finds in the husky bunch of hopefuls who reported to him last Monday. Of the undefeated 1932 eleven, he has lost only Pillard, All-star end, and Dutch Frisby, a brilliant quarterback. "Big" White, who struck fear in the hearts of every M3A team he faced, will be lugging the leather to touchdowns again. Lanky Taylor and Pollard are out for the end-assignments, "All-America" Johnson, Nichols, and Tompkins at tackle; Rowley and Chance at guard: "Mouse" Flagg at center; Rav Ford, Jackson, Parrish, and Washington in the backfield are all experienced players.

Morris Brown Eleven to Open Stiff Schedule Sat. By J. C. CHUM ATLANTA—Morris Brown University, with one of its greatest teams will open the 1933 football season here when they take on the strong South Carolina State football eleven, at Ponce de Leon Park, Saturday, October 7. Never in the history of the A.M.E. Institution has a schedule carried such a strong opponent for an opening game, but officials at Morris Brown decided this best to test the Wolverines prowess to see just what could be done with the "suicide schedule" they will have to face this year. Reports from the Carolina camps indicate that Coach Trooks will be exceptionally strong this year and that his team will be composed of 11 letter men with strong and capable reserve strength. COP STRIKES PRISONER; TREATED FOR FRACTURE Ralph Creel, 28, of 1440 Rhode Island Avenue, white patrolman of the Second Precinct, was treated for a possible fracture of the right middle finger, early Sunday morning, after he is reported to nave struck a prisoner with his fist.

In this connection it might be noted that the annual Wilberforce-Tuskegee intersectional battle will be played this year as in previous years, and that the shift of the annual Howard-Lincoln battle to a more desirable site—with more modern facilities—indicate a determination to go through with attractive campaigns regardless of a nation-wide financial crisis. SOUTH ATLANTIC H.S.C.NEWS SOUTH ATLANTIC H.S.C.NEWS Results of Last Week's Games Armstrong, 6; Bates, 0. Dunbar, 33; National Training, 6. (Non-conference). Games Friday Bates at Dunbar, Washington, D.C. Armstrong at Howard, Wilmington, Del. Manassas Industrial Institute at Douglas, Baltimore. By P. L. JACOBS Publicity Agent The headliners of Friday's games are the Dunbar-Bates and Armstrong-Howard battles. This will be the first conference game of the year for Dunbar and Howard, and the second for Armstrong and Bates. Two other teams engage in non-conference combats, Cardozo meets Bowie State Normal at Washington, Wednesday of this week, and on Friday, Manassas Industrial Institute of Virginia will meet Douglass in Baltimore. Manassas is a new opponent for Douglass. Just how strong the visitors from Virginia will be is something Coach Gibson has little information on, and it may take a pretty strong game of ball from the Ducks to win. Dunbar-Bates Game is Big Early Test Dunbar and Bates will take their success or failure in the 1933 South Atlantic race on the outcome of their Friday's game on Walker Memorial Stadium. Last year, Bates defeated Dunbar. Dunbar is known to have a powerful team in the making and has far more reason to expect a championship than was the case at the same date last fall. The Bates hopes run high for a successful season, and the game should be a mighty battle with apparently little choice between the two. Two of the most highly touted halfbacks of recent years will get their baptism of conference fire in this game. W. Johnson, of Bates, and D. Harrod, of Dunbar.

Writer Sees Brilliant Prospects For 1933 Bison Eleven Writer Sees Brilliant Prospects For 1933 Bison Eleven Jolly Forsythe Points to Return of Ware as Reason for Encouragement; Blue and White Squad Rich With Talent By WILLIAM FORSYTHE, Jr. Gridiron prospects for this year's Howard University football team are considerably brighter since the return of their star backfield ace of last year and the addition of new freshman blood of star material. Ware, last year's ace ballrunner and passer, returned to the Bison fold Thursday and brought with him another Pittsburgh lad, Ed Patterson, who bids fair to be one of the best tackles in college circles. And along with the host of freshmen including Batch, the passing, punting and running sensation of Elizabeth, Pa.; Berry Williams, the D.C. lad who is also making good; the handful of regulars left from last year should be well fortified both on the line and in the backfield. The veterans include Captain Tarzan Johnson, Tom Walker, MacCruder, Jarrett, Cole, Palmer, Chandler, MacArthur, Osley and Artie Jackson. Jackson appears as the likely choice for the post leavant by the graduation of WHITE CITIZENS BAN MIXED NEIGHBORHOODS Fine of $19 a Day Charged if Ordinance is Not Strictly Observed OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla.—Negroes who work for white people will be permitted to live in servant quarters on the property of their employers, under the new segregation ordinance passed unanimously by the Oklahoma City council last Saturday. The ordinance, however, bans the rental of houses on the back end of white people's property, to Negroes, solely for commercial purposes. While the ordinance does not attempt to deny the right of Negroes to purchase property it denies Negroes the right to occupy property in any block where the majority of the residents are white. The ordinance will not effect Negroes or whites already residing in the banned zones. The ordinance, which immediately becomes effective, through a motion made by W. E. Henderson, alleges that "there have b en angry disturbances and disagreements and ill-feelings and controversies and threats against the lives and property of the City of Oklahoma City." Fines in the amount of $19 violation of the ordinance are fixed in the act, and the unlawful occupancy of property each day is designated as a separate offence. The introduction to the text of the ordinance follows: "An ordinance providing for separate location of residences and places of business for the white and Negro races respectively; providing that the terms and condition thereof shall not be retroactive; providing for the separate use of city parks; providing for what is meant by white person or persons and Negro person or persons; providing an exception as to servants or employees and providing an emergency.

Howard's ends have been weak for the past two years and it appears that this season will prove no exception.

Tuskegee Ready to Pry Off Football Lid Friday TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala. —If one can judge by the strenuous workouts so fa. this week the Tuskegee football squad will be all set for the opener here against LeMoyne College Friday afternoon, despite some very heartbreaking losses during the week through injuries. Fred Williams, star end, is out with an ankle injury as is also Lawton Johnson, who was giving William Mobley a hard fight for the quarterback position. Despite the very warm weather the last few days the squad has gone through as intensive workouts as any experienced this season. In their efforts to put the strongest eleven possible on the field at the opening whistle, the coaches are at a loss to make any choice so far in several positions, particularly in the backfield. Lions Finish Prep Drills With Stiff Scrimmage LINCOLN UNIVERSITY, Pa.—On Wednesday, the Lincoln Lions were put through a stiff scrimmage by Coach Martin and his assistants, "Tad" Lancaster and Bryant. Despite the heat that hovered over Randall Field, the men fought with grim determination to make an impressive showing. The fans can look forward to a real battle when the "Lions" invade Richmond, for the encounter with Union, in the opening game of their schedule.

Although suffering from what physicians thought might be a skull fracture, William Martiance, 35, of Texarkana, Texas, walked from beneath the railroad bridge across the Potomac to Emergency Hospital. He had been beaten by six men and robbed of $15 in one dollar bills. While walking in Casey's Court, John Parker, 28, a resident of the Southwest section, was set upon by three youths and robbed of $18 in bills. Parker walked to the Providence Hospital where he was treated for a stab wound of the right shoulder, inflicted by one of the culprits. THIRTEEN ORANGE AND BLUE ELEVEN COUNTS IN SEASON DEBUT Armstrong Tech Captures Opening Battle by Score of 6-0; Game Tight ANNAPOLIS. Md. — Playing straight football, the Armstrong-Technical High School eleven took the measure of the greatly improved Wiley-Bates School team in the opening game of the South Atlantic High School Athletic Conference, here last Friday afternoon. The score was 6-0. A second-quarter forward pass to Shepherd. Armstrong right end, accounted for the lone score of the game. The remainder of the affair was colorless with both teams depending solely on superior driving power. Play was extremely close throughout. Two complete teams were used by Head Coach Edgar P. Westmoreland of the Techites. SAN-LOT FOOTBALLERS ORGANIZE AT Y.M.C.A.

No. 5 FOURTEEN Theatrically Speaking! With ANDY ANDERSON Your Man Anderson comes forward this week with a few of those bright thoughts and observations which emanate from the keen mind of one Miss Bertie Upshur, chorus girl and philosopher. Your Man talked with Miss Upshur about some things in the relationship of the stage and the professional people, with those individuals who comprise the box-office customers, and herein are some of the conclusions reached. The professional is not at all the "different" sort of human being that the folks out front might imagine, but an altogether human person, with a desire for companionship and a feeling to be congenial with the folks out front. But it seems that there exists a gulf between them and those same folks out front, which is peculiar in its startling emphaticness. And why? Well, Miss Upshur observes that perhaps there have been some of those less-well-intentioned professionals whose rather untoward conduct has caused the folks out HOT LIPS... HOT SONGS...

OCT. 6 SPECIAL ADDED LAUREL & HARDY In "BUSY BODIES" LINCOLN A LICHTMAN T NEXT front to regard the rest of the professionals with a rather cynical attitude, and to try to avoid that personal contact which extends so far as to encourage them to show intimacy with the stage folks. Of course, there are certain stage people whose standings command the interest and attention of outsiders, and these people do not feel the bridge which seems to separate the average stage performer from the non-professional. For instance, we cite Duke Ellington and Cab Calloway. They are exceptional, and command respect even to the extent of intimacy, and outsiders are all eager to be known as an intimate of these people. Professionals, Miss Upshar observes, seem to stick to each other, and outsiders do likewise. It would appear that there are two distinct groups of Negro individuals where stage and non-pros are concerned. But these people of the footlights, being thrown together so much in their work, represent a much finer and talented group than the average theatre-goer seems to realize, and when the time comes that they will gather their just share of credit from their out-front friends, then will exist a sort of Utopia for Negro artists of the stage and their patrons. Why are show folks not invited into the homes of the out-fronters? Why don't the out-fronters mingle with the show folks? And "why" for a number of other things. These are questions which when answered will form a very satisfactory insight into the problems of the relationship of the stage performers and the box-office customers, Miss Upshur opines, and Your Man Anderson agrees with her. And folks, have YOU ever really thought about it? If not, do so, and let us hear about it. * * * * The coming picture "Emperor (Continued on page 15) COMING SOON TO LINCOLN THEATRE If you are one of Eugene O'Neill's followers, you will not prove it to the fullest extent until you have seen "Emperor Jones."

That's the lamentation of "bad girl" Claudette Colbert, now starring in her latest vehicle for Pavamount, "Torch Singer," which will open at the Lincoln Theatre Friday, October 6, for a one week's engagement. In the picture, adapted from the well known Liberty Magazine story "Mike" by Grace Perkins, Claudette sings a number of new songs, written especially for her by Ralph Rainger who authored America's first modern torch song, "Moanin Low" for the "First Little Show."

WASHINGTON OWNED & OPERATED TWO SENTENCED TO DIE FOR RAPE ARE PAROLED Governor Says White Girl Had Bad Reputation in Freeing Men RALEIGH, N.C.—Two Forsythe County Negroes, who were sentenced to the electric chair in 1930, were paroled from State's Prison by Governor Ehringhaus, Monday, on the grounds that "circumstances connected with the case indicated they had been punished enough." Percy Hayeslippe and Robert Harris were convicted at the May term, 1930, of Forsythe County of rape and sentenced to death by electrocution. At the time of their conviction Lieut. Lawrence A. Oxley, at the request of the Governor made an investigation of the case with the view of recommending executive clemency. Acting upon the recommendation of Lieut. Oxley, Governor O. Max Gardner in committing the sentence of these prisoners under date of November 12, 1930, stated: "Since the trial and conviction of these two prisoners, new evidence has come to light which proved beyond a reasonable doubt that the prosecutrix in this case was a girl of exceedingly bad reputation, and grave doubt has been expressed by all of those familiar with the case as to the guilt of these defendants." The parole of Harris and Hayes-lippe marks the sixth case where a Negro has been sentenced to death in North Carolina, and Lieut. Oxley has been instrumental in having the sentence of death commuted to life imprisonment, and later secured the release from State's Prison on Parole.

VERNON GREEN LEAVES WIFE'S S STREET HOME Disturbance Precedes Departure; Dentst Receives Slight Injury Reports to the effect that Dr. Vernon S. Green, prominent local dentist, had moved his offices from 1816 S Street, Northwest, the home of his wife, Mrs. Eva Fitzhugh Green, to the Lewis Building, Eleventh and U Streets, Northwest, were verified by The Tribune early this week. Dr. Green has also resumed residence at the Green family home at 1628 Corcoran Street, Northwest. According to rumor the transfer of Dr. Green's practice from the S Street home, the purchase of which is claimed to be in the name of his wife, followed a disturbance which occurred there, late last week, and to which police of the Third Precinct were summoned by alarmed neighbors. Separation from his wife and minor child allegedly took place at the same time. Although Dr. Green was treated for a minor injury by Dr. J. E. Trigg, a physician, the latter would make no comment when asked about the nature of his professional relationship to the dentist. It is also said that Dr. Green consulted Attorney Perry W. Howard shortly after leaving the S Street residence and office, but the lawyer also refused to make a statement to news reporters. Mrs. Green, wife of the dentist, is the "tea room girl" of the news limelight of February of 1930.

D. Letts, in the District Supreme Court, Friday. Chapman had been granted an interlocutory decree on June 23, 1933. The original petition in the case was filed for the husband by Nathan A. Dobbins, on July 5, 1932. Mrs. Chapman was charged with improper conduct with an unnamed person on May 5, 6 and 10, at 2370 Champlain Street, and at other times. When no attorney appeared in behalf of Mrs. Chapman, the court appointed J. Franklin Wilson to represent her, August 16, 1932. In June, of that year, Mr. Wilson in an affidavit to the court declared that he had been unable to contact the wife either personally or by mail.
