Burroughs, Founder and Head of School for Women and Girls SEEK NEGRO EMPLOYMENT AGENT HERE Citizens' Committee Acts To Halt Prejudice At Woodyard Agency Charging that colored mechanics and skilled workmen are flagrantly discriminated against at the District Reemployment Agency, located in the D. C. Woodyard at the corner of Sixth and Constitution Avenue, Northwest, members of the Joint Citizens' Committee, a group made up of prominent local civic officials, asked this week that a colored assistant administrator be appointed to see that Negro workers are given a square deal in employment here. The reemployment office is now in charge of G. A. Eckstein, white. It is charged that Eckstein has been guilty on numerous occasions of discriminatory measures designed to prevent skilled Negro mechanics from obtaining the work due them under the present relief and public works setups. Find 16 Cases This discrimination, members of the committee say, has taken many forms. Skilled Negro mechanics have been recorded as laborers, and carpenters, plasterers, woodworkers, etc., have been forced to accept work for which they were not trained. In some cases dark-complexioned colored men were arbitrarily put down as laborers, while light-complexioned men were given their correct status as skilled mechanics. Sixteen specific cases of such discrimination have been investigated by the committee and found to be true. Protested to Clark The names of these sixteen men, together with details of their cases, were filed with Howard F. Clark, E.W.A. administrator and assistant engineer commissioner in charge of relief work, Saturday morning, at which time the recommendation was made that a colored assistant be appointed to supervise the employment of Negroes through Eckstein's office. The office, it is said, handles several hundred men a day, and a large proportion of these are colored. MACON SOCIAL WORKER SLAYS SWEETHEART MACON, Ga. (ANP)—Charles A. Proctor, case worker in the county relief headquarters, shot and killed Miss Betty White, another case worker, last Monday morning, as she sat at her desk. He then killed himself. Proctor's act is believed to have been caused by his failure to win the love of the young woman. He walked directly to her desk, asked her to look up at him, and when she did so, fired two bullets into her head. Funerals were held for both victims of the tragedy Monday. Proctor was a graduate of Morehouse College, class of 1931, received his master's degree from Atlanta University, and had taught school in Mississippi before coming here. Miss White was graduated from Fort Valley Institute. It is understood her parents did not favor a match for her with Proctor and that she had accepted an engagement with another man, Sunday. Dr. Mordecai Job National Training Howard President Pays Nannie H. Burroughs, School for Wor Dr. Mordecai Johnson, president of Howard University, was the principal speaker Sunday at mass meeting Sunday at Florida Avenue Baptist Church which launched a drive for $6,000 for the National Training School for Women and Girls at Lincoln Heights, Md., of which Miss Nannie H. Burroughs is founder and president. Following the meeting, Mrs. L. N. Fitzhugh who presided, announced that $574 has been raised by a committee of women of which she is chairman. It was also announced that James Johnson, 517 T. Street, had contributed $100 toward the found. Dr. Johnson whose subject was "The Negro Who Dared," paid a glowing tribute to Miss Burroughs. "If Miss Burroughs had set out to chose a white board of directors she might have been pointed out as one of the race's most distinguished educators," the speaker SCOTT NAMED D.C. JUDGE THE FLOWER GARDEN MRS. FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT, wife of the President, shows the true Christian spirit when this group of small children called at the White House, Tuesday, to present the First Lady with a basket of flowers in celebration of May Day. The group presented the flowers on behalf of the Child Health Society. The little colored child is Mercer Cook, son of Mr. and Mrs. Mercer Cook, 1101 Fairmont Street, Northwest.

The petition outlined five major projects for Northeast Washington, two for the Southwest section of the city, and one for the Southeast. It also listed needed improvements on school properties throughout the city.

"She dared to build an institution for the people we are and dared to depend for her support from her own people." Dr. Johnson also pointed out to the audience that there is still room for the Negro "who dares to believe that the world is not completed, and dares to believe he has a part to play in building it and dares to risk his life in his belief." Dr. Johnson was presented by the Rev. A. F. Elmes, pastor of People's Congregational Church. Another Meeting in "Hay Music was furnished by the Freedmen's Nurses Glee Club and the Synthis Male Chorus under the direction of Levington E. Smith. Bishon William H. Matthews, of the A.M.E. Zion Church, launched the drive. The invocation was by the Rev. William A. Taylor, pastor of the church. Another meeting in the interest of the school will be held the latter part of May, Mrs. Fithugh said.

PWA Funds roving Neg Reporter Closes Bolden Pays Su Slayer of Wife and Mother- Jail; Condemned Man R Only a Cup of Co By SAMUEL H. LACY For a full two minutes the low drone of the dynamos was audible as they sent their messenger of destruction from the ante-room of the death chamber. For full two minutes I sat, outwardly unemotional, but inwardly numb. Ernest Bolden was being executed. I had been sent to see it, but—I closed my eyes. I couldn't bear to watch. A few seconds before Bolden had been alive, seeing, talking—no singing—hearing, feeling, walking. He had paced off the distance from the steps leading down into the death chambers to the chair with little effort. He walked briskly, unassisted to his death. He had no alternative. There was no one to help him. No one wanted to help him. For twenty minutes before this last march had begun the wires leading into and out of the District jail had been kept open in case some clemency should seek to stay the hand of the executioner. 6But no one wanted to help him. He was alone—alone in a cold, heartless world. As much alone as the solitary tear which dampened his cheek as the hood was removed from his face after society had claimed his life. The tear, resting on the chilled pulseless cheek, appeared ironical. As I looked down on the still limp form of this unfortunate human my mind wandered. I thought about his early childhood in Roslyn, just across a small span of water from Washington. I saw him as he romped about playing games, being scolded for getting dirty, and then tended up for school and church. I saw him as he matured and watched him marry. I witnessed his being sucked in by ill-advising friends, and later saw him entangled by domestic difficulties. 1. pictured him as he sought to (Continued on page 2) WASHINGTON, D.C., THURSDAY, MAY 3, 1934 One Southerner Votes for DePriest Cafeteria Resolution Teacher Arrested on Drunken Driving Charge Frederick Douglass, a teacher in Armstrong High School, was arrested early Saturday morning and charged with driving while under the influence of liquor. Douglass who gave his age as 48 and his address as 934 T Street, was arrested by Officer L. I. Botts, of No. 12 Precinct. He was released under a bond of $500. One Southerner DePriest Cafe No name among the 237 registered in support of House Resolution No. 236, popularly known as the DePriest Resolution, last Wednesday, shone quite so brightly as that of Congressman Will Taylor, of Tennessee. Except for the vote of Mr. Taylor every Southern Congressman voted in effect that the Negro is an inferior citizen and not entitled to the same rights and privileges other citizens pay and fight for. Except for the vote of Mr. Taylor, all the other votes in support of the theory that the federal government has no right to discriminate against any class of citizens came from Northern and Western states. Debate on the DePriest resolution was sidetracked, although many Congressmen had sought to go on record for and against the bill. Prominent among those who sought inclusion of their remarks in favor of the bill in The Record were Congressman Ford of California, who has introduced the Costigan-Wagner anti-lynching bill in Local Attorney Named To Succeed J. A. Cobb On Municipal Bench --- [Name] ARMOND W. SCOTT More of it New York PWA Foreman Refuses to Hire Negroes for Skilled Work NEW YORK (CNA)—Instigated by the foreman, the blacksmiths of the P.W.A. work at 56th Street and 12th Avenue, put down their tools and refused to work when Edward Mercer, a Negro blacksmith, reported for work. Although Mercer had had many years of experience as a blacksmith and had qualified for many years as a blacksmith's helper, the foreman told Mercer that he could not work in the shop without a union card, although he knew that Negro helpers are not admitted to the union. Three white men who reported for work at the same time, who did not have union cards, were put to work immediately. There has been a systematic effort on the part of the city and Public Works Administration here to prevent Negroes from holding the better paid skilled jobs. Votes for eteria Resolution the House, and Congressman Cavagan and Lanzetta, of New York. Most prominent among those who wished to speak in opposition was Rep. Cochrane of Missouri. Immediately after the DePriest resolution had passed, a Florida representative introduced a bill to abolish the House restaurant which has been the cause of all the furor because of barring Negroes. The Floridaian claimed that he introduced the bill because lots of people claimed Congressmen received their meals free anyway and because he did not wish to cat with Negroes. Rep. O'Connor, of New York, sought before the vote on the bill to prove that the DePriest petition was without affect, pointing out technicalities that deprived it of force. But it is significant that the powerful rules committee failed to act until Mr. DePriest had obtained sufficient signatures to his petition for the ostensible purpose of discharging the committee from consideration of his resolution. Has Practiced Law Here for 30 Years; 3 Other Candidates Sought Post MEMBER OF SUPREME COURT FOR 27 YEARS Among Few Negroes to Come Out for Democratic Party in Face of Opposition Armond W. Scott, well known local attorney, has been recommended to President Roosevelt by Attorney General Cummings as judge of the Municipal Court to succeed Judge James A. Cobb, it was learned by the Tribune today. He has practiced law here for 30 years. Judge Cobb's term expired a month ago. President Roosevelt is understood to have decided to appoint Mr. Scott as this is usually routine when the recommendation is made by the Attorney General. There were three other candidates for the judgeship including Emory B. Smith, former head of the bureau of publicity, Howard University; R. R. Horner, and William Houston. When told of his appointment by a Tribune reporter, Mr. Scott refused to make a statement, but merely said "there will be a new deal for the underdog." He is the second of seven sons of Benjamin and Athalia Scott, was born in Wilmington, North Carolina. His father was one of the leading business men of that city, having been the proprietor of (Continued on page 2) ASKS REVIEW OF LUNCHEONETTE LIQUOR LICENSE Attorney for Hurwita Hits Board for Denying Permit Abuse of its discretionary powers was charged to the Liquor Control Board by F. Joseph Donahue, representing the Temple Luncheonette and Drug Store, which has been denied a license to sell liquor. In a letter to the District Commissioners, Donahue asked that they review the case. "I hesitate to invoke the powers of any court to compel any board to do any act upon the ground that its failure to act is a patent abuse of a discretionary power, and for that reason I appeal to the Board of Commissioners in the belief that they might review the action of the board and urge it to grant the license," he continued. Donahue pointed out that his client, Louis M. Hurwitz, proprietor of the drug store at Tenth and U Streets, had been engaged in the District for 22 years and has never been in any difficulty with the law, while other applicants, within a radius of four blocks, who have long police records, were granted licenses. The application was opposed by the Board of Education, officials of the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School, the Community Center Department and a number of civic associations, while a long list of patrons of the place, including physicians and lawyers urged its insurance.

Medford Tells Kaufman That Failure to Hir Clerks of Race that Supports Store is Cause for Closing 10-Year Account JDGE GROCERS TO FORM CHAIN STORE GROUP Co-operative Buying Plan Will Enable Competition With Chains Twenty-one grocery stores in the District of Columbia have combined to form a chain store of their own. it was a announced this week by J. C. Cunningham, well-known local groceryman. Mr. Cunningham is president of the newly-formed organization, which will be known as Peoples' Grocery Stores, Inc. Stores to be included in the chain are now undergoing complete overhauling and restocking, under a combined buying and selling organization which, it is said, will enable them to meet and compete with chain store prices. These stores, covering every section of Washington, are operated, for the most part, by men of long experience in the grocery business. Supplementary clerical forces to be used in them, it is planned, will not only be trained and experienced but courteous as well. According to a statement issued this week by Mr. Cunningham, this is only the beginning of a movement to have in the District of Columbia hundreds of stores owned by members of the race, and employing Negro youth.

Wreckers engaged in tearing (Continued on page 2) Minister Refuse Store that Won Rev. H. T. Medford Tells K Clerks of Race that Su for Closing 10 In a letter to the Harry Kaufman department store, 1316 Seventh Street, Northwest, last week, the Rev. H. T. Medford, general correspondent secretary of the Department of Forgeign Missions of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, informed the store management that he did not care to make further purchases at that store as long as Negro clerks were refused jobs "where it appears that anywhere from 70 to 80 per cent of its patronage comes from members of the race." The store was picketed last December by the New Negro Alliance for failure to hire Negro clerks. Kaufman secured an injunction which prohibited the picking. The store is located near the O Street Market and is largely supported by colored persons. Dr. Medford's Letter follows: "I have not been to make any Washington Central Union May Follow Lead of Government Group Representatives of the Keystone Automobiles Club were roundly rebuked for their policy of excluding Negroes from membership, by George H. Bycrow, president, Inter-Departmental Lodge No. 20, American Federation of Government Employees, last Friday night at a meeting of the Listrict of Columbia Federation held at the Hamilton Hotel. Stephen Lewis, the Keystone representative, consumed approximately twenty minutes explaining the various features of his club, excluding with an appeal for endorsement of his organization and for membership. At the conclusion of his appeal, Mr. Ryeraw brought to the attention of Mr. Lewis an article which appeared in THE WASHINGTON TIBUER several weeks ago, stating that the Keystone Automobile Club did not accept colored people as members of the club and asked him if this were true; he stated that it was, and that he personally was very sorry, but that the garages, service stations, etc., with whom they contracted did not want colored patronage. Disgraceful Blunder Mr. Ryeraw asked him to name one garage in the Washington area that refused to serve colored motorists; this he was unable to do and shifted by stating that he understood that the colored people had their own automobile club that was performing similar service. Mr. Ryeraw asked him to give the name of such colored club; this he was unabel to do. Mr. Rycurw told the Keystone representative that his automobile club had committed a most disgraceful blunder, in coming before the Federation of Government Employees composed of all racial groups, seeking their indoracment. He also told him that the L. C. Federation would not dare indorse an automobile club such as his with an avowed anti-Negro policy. At the conclusion of the tilt between Mr. Rycurw and the Keystone representative, the Federation declined to indorse the club. Miss Eleanor Nelson (white) president of the Reinstatement League, and a member of the Washington Central Labor Union, assured Mr. Reyraw that she would move to reconsider the Central Labor Union's action of previously indorsing the Keystone Automobile Club at its next meeting, she explained that the ban against colored membership was cleverly concealed and the members of the Central Labor Union were unaware of this provision when they voted their approval. SANITARY STORE STILL UNDER BAN The picketing of the Sanitary Store in the 2400 block of Nichols Avenue, Anacostia, was still under way today, according to officers of the New Negro Alliance. The store was ordered picketed last April 16, when the management refused of hire Negro clerks, although it was pointed out to him that over 90 per cent of the patronage at the store is by Negroes. The management, in the meantime, employed some ten colored clerks in stores in other Negro sections of Washington. The headquarters of the Alliance announced today that the picketing of the store will continue indefinitely. s to Support n't Hire Negroes aufman That Failure to Hire supports Store is Cause Year Account purchases from your store since December 1933. I recall the re ported attitude that your store as sumed towards the matter of em ploying colored people as clerks at the time the New Negro Alliance in this city waited on you in that regard some time in December. "As a member of the race and leader of my people I can not but feel it is grossly unfair to them not to be given opportunity to work in a business establishment where it appears that anywhere from seventy-five to eighty per cent of its patronage comes from members of the race. I have been a patron of your store for the past ten years and feel that I have been the means of a number of my people also being patrons. I regret however to say in closing this account that with the continuation of your policy towards my people I cannot further with you." ~ gimply Phone POT. 1667: : For Results . % “ NEW YORK.—It was announced hhere this week that young people entering the nation-wide N.A.A.C.P.

CLARK FOREMAN, WHITE “Yet do I marvel at this curious thing:-To make a poet black and bid him sing!” says Countee Cullen. To me the most curious thing and the thing most to be marveled at is the idea of a white Southerner de- siring to be black and aspiring to Negro leadership. . ; Clarky Howell Foreman (he seems to have now dropped the middie name) is a white gentleman of Georgia, the spiritually disinherited nephew of Clark Howell, editor and owner of the Atlanta Constitution. He holds the position of “Advisor on the Economic ae ee of the Ne- gto” in the Interior Department, ‘A Bashful Boy ‘ Clark’ Foreman’ is paid by the government for his services in this connection $1.00 per year. He draws another salary, considerably larger, from the Rosenwald Fund. He has a three-room suite of offices in the Interior building. He has directly under him two young colored womien as office as- sistants and Dr. Robert Weaver, colored, ax “Associate Advisor.” He has allowed his office to be used by four men who are doing the pre- liminary work:on-a proposed survey of the economic ‘condition of the white-colored Negro. Three of these men’ até golored ‘and ore is-an Seon oe Be weiss : --- Foreman, himself, is a young man, probably just ‘out 6f his thirties. He is bashfulvand sensitive in his anomalous. povition. He seems sin- cere and earnest in his desire to make good as a colored man. He re- minds meof a bashful boy intent on leading his tin soldiers to battle and on imagining himself one of them and the leader of thee. 3 Informer to Secretary cd Clark. Foreman was abroad making a survey of tural -conditions when a group of white and colored citizens decided that-there should be in the government a man to: look after the interests of the Negro, and that this man should be white. Clark Foreman was selected as the white man best fitted for the position and he was sent for. On August 21, he was appointed\by Secretary: Ickes “Advisor on the Eco- nomic Status iof Negroes.” Dr. Foreman’s duties “include keeping: the Secretary, advised of the manner and extent fo which Negroes are sharing in the results of the operation of the National Recovery-Act.”” He tells me tha® hts duties also includs, unofficially, checking up on discrimination and un- fairness in any department of the government. Appointment Was Protested * The appointment of Clark Foreman was not entirely satlsfactory to the race. The N.A.A.C.P. sent a protest to the Department of In- terior and newspapers throughout the countty protested vigorously against the placing of a white man in a position of advising on Negro affairs. Their, feeling was that the time has come in the history of the race when it is nexer necessary to go outside the race to find men suffi- ciently educated, sufficiently efficient and sufficiently patriotic to advise on Negro affairs, A Buffer Between Two Races Personally, Foreman is a fine fellow, although some persons may get the impression thet his interest in Negro affairs is professional. But whites who would be “Negro” leaders run into insurmountable ob- stacles, just as the natural born Negro leaders do. And Dr. Foreman is but one man, a buffer divided between Negroes and whites, who are astonished by his attitude. An illustration of the nature of some of the difficulties encountered by him occurred some months ago when Foreman followed the advice of a number of Negro organizations which asked him to intercede for the appointment of colored reserve officers in the Civil Conservation Corns units mansed by Negroes. Foreman approached Col. Duncan U. Majors, United States Army, in direct charge of mobilization and discipline a. the camps. Col, Majors was incredulous when the Atlantan first made his request, then became impatient, Thought He Knew His South “Don’t be bringing any such idea to me,” the colonel snorted. “That would be throwing a monkey wrench into the machinery we already ‘have functioning smoothly in the ‘South... The South, would never stand for Negro officers.” “Oh, I think the South would accept Negroes in command without any question if you appointed them as a purely routine matter,” re- plied Foreman. “You don’t know anything about the South evidently,” insisted the irate colonel. “Well, I'm a Southerner of the fourth generation and think I know tie region and the people rather well,” countered Foreman, “Umph, you must be a pretty :” Southerner.” “Where are you from, Colonel?” “Vm from New York,” responded the doughty defender of South- ern prejudice as he strummed off. A Team Worker But before he went into Secretary Icke’s office, Mr. Foreman was attacking racial Goliaths with his slingshot, Some years ago, the N.A.A.C.P. held its annual convention in this city. It was thought that it should hold its banquet at one of the more prominent hotels. Foreman, himself, without solicitation, went to every first class hotel in Washington trying to effect such an ment. But even with the evidence of his sincerity and willingness to-do, if Mr. Foreman were our only leader herein the capital, there might be cause for alarm. After ail, he is white. He may be intellectually fair tnd bis heart may be right Bat he, alone, could not fill the bill for Negroes. Perhaps no one. could do so. It is fortunate that he associates himself with those other leaders who also ate endeavoring seein io lake advenrscere! Srery panianuiert ote inerion oe seel ce advant every ity.

TWELVE CHARLES HOUSTON TO ADDRESS Y.W. CONVENTION PHILADELPHIA, Pa. (By Feree) Vincent Smoot for ANP)—The 18th annual convention of the National Young Women's Christian Association opened here on Wednesday, May 2, after many months of preparation for what is believed will be a greatest convention in the history of the association. More than 2,000 delegates from all parts of the country are expected to be in attendance. Sessions will be held three times a day ending May 8. The most distinguished speakers who will address the convention will be Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt and Miss C. M. VanAsch van Wyk, president of the World's Council of the Young Women's Christian Association, who will be the special guests of the all-convention luncheon on Friday, May 4. Their speeches will be broadcast over a nation-wide hookup of the National Broadcasting Company and the Columbia Broadcasting System from 1:30 to 2 p.m., Eastern Daylight Savings Time. The Younger Set B. MORRIS MURRAY and JAMES R. WOOD The Bourbons Social Club is making plans for giving the Younger Set its social event of the season. Just what this entertainment is going to be is a big secret. The members of this club request that all interested in a Younger Set social register will write in their approval or disapproval in care of this column. Some have suggested that the first names for the register be taken from those present at the affair, which the Bourbons are planning to make entirely exclusively invitational. So our Louise Foster receives a beautiful bouquet of flowers? Now we wonder who is playing the gallant "knight"? Talking about a mess! Lookit this. D. Grey, G. Murray, M. Pearson, and R. Moore. What will they do next? Let's hope it won't be anything radical. The Dunbar Observer states that we have joined the track team. It's true. But you know, we wouldn't have the guy're going to chase get away from us for anything in the world. That's why we're in training. Well, well, what have we here? Must be Marie (Mootsie) Payne and her big moment coming down the street. Holy smoke! It's Halley Taylor! If only Ernest Wilson were here. Yowsh. Halley Taylor, that ole lieutenant colonel of the 24th regiment. Looks like we have a bit of a backslide, oh wot? The ranks of the army of the 'armband seekers" are swelling every day. We've even heard that they are going to organize. Among the recruits we see the popular A Women in Business "Can you get me a job?" is the question asked almost daily at the information desk of the Phyllis Wheatley Y.W.C.A. Often it is a young girl just out of school (or of that age) with no special training to qualify her for any particular kind of work. With the hope of inspiring our young girls to prepare for something more than "a job" attention is called to some women who are in business. Mrs. Minnie Smoot thought she would like to be a teacher and she graduated from Miner Normal School and taught several years in the city schools, but there came an opportunity to go in the business of undertaking. Twenty years ago, she as one of the women pioneers, began the business. At the end of the first year, which she gave as a trial to see if she would like `` she went to New York and graduated from the Renouard School for Embalmers. In the class there were only two Negroes—a man and herself—and two women. Mrs. Smoot stood "No. 1" in the class. She is not only in the undertaking business, but is one of the very few women who do embalming. Some years ago there were not many of our group in this line of business, but now in the city of Washington there are few, if any, colored people who employ white undertakers. Through beneficial societies and churches the group has been educated to support its own undertakers and they have de- J. T. That reminds me that George Murray will be the center of fire if he doesn't find shelter in a trench. Dunbar students are really coming out. India Wallace and Bobby Scurlock, Mae Arrington and Jesse Reed were seen enjoying themselves at the Mu-so-lit panama party at the Collonnade. We only heard but Ruth Scott says that she and Roger Thurston are married. How's that for a combination? John Tignor and Margaret Travis are getting right ducky — you know, the Howard Theatre and so on. Chick Chisolm has been around the ole homestead (Dunbar) quite often lately. Something tells me that there's method to his madness. While passing along the sidewalk in front of the Walker Stadium somebody remarked, "This reminds me of the Last Roundup." Sounds bad for the congregation of students assembled on the field, don't you think? We received a letter which gave the Older Set a dirty dig. A certain young lady seems to think that quite a few of those who masquerade under the Older Set are darn good candidates for the Younger Set. Let's give Placide Washington a big hand. At the Delta's big doings on the Hill the other night, last Saturday to be exact, Placide, accompanied by Thelma King gave everybody a treat.

The name of the church is Community Church. Although strongly opposed by many who desired to accept another invitation, when the vote by ballot was taken, the result was favorable to the going over to this new but wonderful field. The membership of the church is rapidly growing. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. THURSDAY. MAY 3, 1934 CHILDREN'S PAGE Health and Beauty Hints By MRS. WARREN, of THE ROSE ELMER BEAUTY SHOP A facial is one of the most delightful experiences a woman can have. For an hour at least she is made to feel that the world revolves around her. Lying comfortably in a softly cushioned chair, she receives the ministrations of one of Beauty's handmaidens, and as the expert fingers smooth away lines and coax color into her face, she begins to feel fresh and uplifted. After an hour of such attention, during which her skin is soothed with creams, stimulated with liquids, warmed with massage, chilled with icy applications, she goes away rested and young-looking with a new transparency in her skin and a new confidence in herself. Try this oatmeal facial. It is gently stimulating, marvelous for cleansing and soothing, and leaves the skin with flower-like radiance. Wash your face thoroughly, rinse in cold water and to the damp skin apply the pack. Fill a gauze square with oatmeal, wet well and wash the face gently, especially the nostrils and chin. Or pour a tablespoon of oatmeal in the palm, wet with hot water, and apply to the skin. Remove with cold water. Too lavish use of mascara detracts from eye mystery and coarsens the expression of the face. Lightly and properly used, it darkens light lashes. If your lips droop, draw in a smile. With your lipstick turn the corners of the upper lip slightly upward, and your mouth will take on a pleasant look. THE STINNETTE BEAUTY SHOPPES Mrs. Bertha D.

BE KIND TO YOUR TEETH; THEY ARE FAITHFUL SERVANTS All sickness is caused by microbes, or germs. Because we cannot see these germs with the naked eye, we must not think they do not exist, for there are many things we cannot see that we know exist.

We must not forget that many of these germs which cause disease are very strong and poisonous. You get into the mouth from air. The parents meet once a month to discuss the problems of the child, and of our race. Dear Editor: What about a contest with the boys against the girls? You always spring something good on us, why not have a contest of an essay where the boys and girls compete against each other? Even when a boy wins the main prize he could give it to the girl who had the best essay for the girls. Girls are never no trouble. John Summers (13) Keen your pledge, do not use the word "nigger." caused entirely by neglect of the mouth and teeth. Pus pockets surround each tooth. This pus-pocket condition is caused by deposits about the teeth, also by decayed teeth. The teeth finally become loose. These pockets of pus are merely-acumulations of germs of different kinds. More or less of this pus is swallowed all the time, mixed with the food, and as we have said before, causes many kinds of disease. The germs lodge in the weakest parts of the body, and there they cause trouble. To cure the sickness of the body, the mouth must first be thoroughly cleaned by scaling the teeth and filling all cavities. This will stop any further germs coming from the mouth and going into the system. Of course at the time the mouth is thoroughly clean, all missing teeth should be supplied in the most scientific manner, so as to give the greatest possible masticating surface.

We must not forget that many of these germs which cause disease are very strong and poisonous. They get into the mouth from air, water, and food. When the mouth is unclean because of bad teeth, food deposits upon the teeth, or decayed places in the teeth, these germs multiply very rapidly, because the mouth in this condition is a perfect incubator, or egg hatcher. The germs are swallowed with the food or drink. They then go out into different parts of the body and cause swellings about the neck and jaws and other places. These germs cause sheumatism, neuralgia, sciatica, gastric and intestinal irritations, ulcerations n porious organs, diabetes, kidney diseases, derangement of the heart and lungs and blood vessels. Pyorrhea is a very bad disease of the mouth, quite prevalent among most classes of people. It is ANNOUNCING The New Location of the BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL After the mouth is thoroughly cleaned, it should be kept clean by brushing the teeth with a suitable toothbrush after every meal. Every one should visit the dentist three or four times a year and have his teeth scaled of any deposits that may be upon or around them. In a proper toothbrush, the rows of bristles should be rather far apart, so as to allow the brush to be more thoroughly cleaned. A brush of this kind will clean the teeth much better than the ordinary kind will, as the bristles in rows wide apart can more easily get between the teeth. To clean the teeth thoroughly, the brush should be used with a rotating or twisting motion, as well as a back and forward motion. Next to godliness is cleanliness. One of the first steps in cleanliness is undoubtedly cleanliness of the mouth and teeth daily. LOUIS IS LOOKING AHEAD TO VACATION TIME Dear Editor: Excuse the slang—but it can't be long now.

He does not know any tricks. He can open the kitchen door to get in or out. He knows when it is time to go out at night. Just before mother and father get ready to close up the house at night, Roy Roy is at the door to wag his good-night. He is very kind and full of fun. He is strong enough to push me down. I wish that other children would write and tell of their pets. I wouldn't take anything in the world for Roy Roy. Joseph McK.

Is One of Series Displayed Annually by University Health Service During this week, a health exhibit featuring cancer prevention and control is being presented in the East Corrective Gymnasium, Howard University Gymnasium Building, by the University Health Service, Dr. E. H. Allen, director. Material will be supplied by the American Society for the Control of Cancer, New York City, and collaborating agencies, including the American Child Health Association and the American Public Health. The exhibit is one of a series of health exhibits presented annually by the University Health Service of Howard as an educational project in the university community. Prominent in this scheme is the plan of concentration on one subject in each demonstration. The project this year is also in collaboration with the National Negro Health Movement, and has particular significance because the twentieth anniversary of the movement is being observed. A major interest this year is a trophy won by the University Health Service of Howard University for three consecutive years of collaboration with the National Negro Health Movement. Literature, varied samples, and miscellaneous features, as usual, will be a part of the display. The public is invited to attend. The exhibit will be open from 9 a.m., to 6 p.m., each day. Colored Men To Get Store Manager Jobs In First National Stores BOSTON (By Jesse O. Thomas for ANP).—After more than two years of conferences and interviews with the management of the First National Stores, Inc., on the part of George W. Goodman, executive secretary of the Boston Urban League, arrangements have finally been consummated whereby Negro managers are to be employed by this corporation. They will be taken on at first as apprentices. During this period they will be paid a stipend of $8.00 a week. After they are fully qualified, they will be given full charges of the store and a salary of $31,000 a week. According to the general manager of the stores in New England Mr. James Duane, the press manager of the stores where the Negroes will take charge, will be transferred into other districts. When ten Negro managers have been placed and proving satisfactory, a district supervisor will be appointed at a salary of $45 per week. The Urban League has already selected three prospective managers who are now in training. One of the most significant things about this achievement with the First National Stores is that the heads of other chain stores are watching with a great deal of interest. Secretary Goodman intends to keep working on the other chain stores groups until they too let down the bars and give employment where it is deserved. Says Mohammedanism Rivals Christianity in West Africa The Civic National Forum was addressed by the Rev. S. S. Sevier evangelist of the Congregational Church and a native of Liberia, at the Twelfth Street Christian Church, Sunday, at 3:30 p.m. The speaker said that. Mohammedanism is a formidable rival of Christianity in Africa, especially on the West Coast. The speaker further stated that Mohammedanism has one decided advantage over Christianity in being consistent in teaching the brotherhood of man and opposing slavery. The address concluded with the assurance that Liberia would not fail to pieces, notwithstanding misleading propaganda, and that Africa would survive throughout the ages. The Rev. B. J. Pogue, pastor of Central M.E. Church, spoke briefly on the principles of Christianity Miss Lulu M. Franklin recited. Lester Brown rendered a violin solo and Joseph W. Cox played the musical saw.

FIFTEEN "Hi-De-He, Everybody!" This is your favorite program over the "air" through the International News outlet, Station WTO (Washington Tribune Office) bringing you the latest news in a humorous way. Well, here goes: Track teams of the various high schools are being groomed for the track events this year. Good material has been selected for all of the teams. Coaches and managers of the track teams are striving to make their teams the best. Norman Fickling, fast track star, and Everett Payne, letterman of the various sports, are the best runners on the Tech track team. Nat Reyberg is the manager. Did you know that: illiteracy among the colored people of the United States is now less than half what it was in 1920; the District of Columbia may have as its chief occupation lawmaking, but on the side it runs a very successful farming business. Within the limits of the District there are 106 farms, covering a total of 3,071 acres. For any one who may have fears of the United States being overpopulated here are a few figures which should prove comforting: If ten houses were built on each acre of ground in Kansas, thus giving some 400 square yards of garden to each house, the whole population of the United States could be housed comfortably in that one state, and we would have the rest of the country for a playground.

Spikers broke even on their East- ern volley ball trip last week. The local smashers defeated a revamped 135th Street Y team in the lat- ter’s gymnasium last Friday night by three games to two. The Twelfth Streeters captured the first contest by a 15 to 12 count. In this game the smashing of the three at- tack. men, Jeffries, Johnson and Tibbs, was commendable. The New Yorkers eame to life in the next two contests to win 15 to 11 and 15 to 1. At this stage of the mateh the capital city team staged a rally to win the fourth game by a 15 to 9 score, A determined Washington outfit faced the New Yorkers in the deciding tilt. New York, hav- ing the serve, registered three points before a beautiful set-up by Dr. Stud Greene resulting in a lightning like smash by Jeffries checking the New York attack. With the count, three to one, the ‘Twelfth Streeters staged an attack that carried them to a 13 to 2 score before being halted. The en- tire Washitigton outiit played bang- up volley ball. ‘The accurate smashing of Atty. James Tyson in this game went a long way to establish the Twelfth Street Y supremacy. In Philadelphia, the local squad faced Tarzan Cooper, of Renais. sance fame. The ‘'welfth Streeters captured one contest of the four game match. Philadelphia captured the first three games, 15 to 12, 1 to 16, and 16 to 14. All three were hotly. contested with Philadelphis exhibiting @ finishing touch that braught vielory in each ease.

The youths, bearing the colors of the Topeka Vocational School, Topeka, Kanssa, walked off with the scholastic mile relay in record-breaking time and then came back to capture the scholastic sprint relay in impressive fashion.

Several other colored runners took part in the games, but of the group only Crooms, a representa- tive of the Kansas Teachers Col- lege, at Emporia, was able to finish “in the money.” Crooms finished behind Hall and third to Metcalfe in the century dash. Swisher, of Pittsburgh; Phillips, of Omaha; and Holder, of Kansas Teachers! College, failed to place. The Lincoln High School, of Kan- sas City, Oklahoma, also entered relay teams in the half-mile and mile events, but did not survive the preliminary tests.

Asso. 19 32 .372 Liberty Loan... 12 36 .250 Well. At last the long standing ambition of Freedmen's Hospital bowlers has been realized. They thumped the Cosmopolitans twice in their match last week. The defeat of the champs was due largely to the stellar rolling of Dr. Jesse Keene, who has become an ardent wooer of the head pin, and Dr. Philip (Eddie Cicotte) Johnson. Between them they accounted for 655 fallen attacks. The former rolled the highest game and set he has been able to corral this season, 125 and 354, respectively. Dr. Johnson mauled out a neat 321, his highest set to date. Of course Dr. George Adams did his stuff as usual. He and Dr. Harold Fisher, his opponent in the anchor position, had a match all their own. Dr. Adams managed to nose him out by two pins in each of the first two games, and by seven in the final. The Cosmopolitans rolled one of the highest sets that they have chalked up for sometime. With nine strikes and 25 spares, their score should have been higher. Freedmen's with two strikes less and five spares more topped by one pin the high set record of 1,582 hung up by the champs enry in the season. The chief masters for the Cosmopolitans were Drs. Harry Honesty and Harold Fishin. This pair accounted for 630 pins. L. Harper seems to have regained his old time form. The two games in which he participated he averaged 110-1. From where I am sitting it looks like the Cosmopolitans are going to be at the head of the pack when the wire is reached. With only nine games remaining to be played they can coast along and remain at the top with only five wins even if their nearest rivals win all nine. The Ambassadors took three The Ambassadors took three The six-game schedule, with each school meeting each other school twice, promises to be a nip-and-tuck battle from the very beginning. The Dunbar High School aggregation, the last to be seen in action in the city championships, is a formidable unit, and is prepared to give both the Generals and the Clerks a battle for the coveted title. Announcement was made, early this week, that Clark Griffith, president of the Washington American League Baseball Club, was offering a trophy to the winning team again this year. The Orange and Blue nine will meet a decidedly stronger outfit than bore the colors of the Cardozo institution last year. Coach Jack Young can boast of good pitching aided by a powerful attack and a fairly good defense. Westmoreland, on the other hand, is relying on his veterans, Clark Crisley and Payne, offensively, and on Cooke, Hayes and Brown, defensively. Moss, Olympi and Briscoe are promising newcomers to the General squad. Although the Poets have suffered several minor setbacks in their pre-season drills, Coach P. L. Jacobs is satisfied that he has found the combination that can be expected to click effectively. He has served notice that trouble will be brewing when his team takes the field in its first game of the series next Wednesday. LOCAL BOY LEADS 'FORCE TO WIN WILBERFORCE, Ohio—Led by Percy (Runt) White, a product of the District of Columbia, the Wilberforce University baseball team romped to an overwhelming 26-4 victory over the Rio Grande (white) college team here last Saturday. The gme was the opening clash of the 1934 Force season. White connected for 6 hits in 6 tripped to the plate, his efforts netting a triple, double and four singles. The Washington lad garnered two hits in the first inning when the Ohioans batted around for a total of 8 runs. Seven more runs were added in the fifth inning, seven more in the seventh and four in the ninth completed the rout. Rodgers, Andrew and Peterson son shared the mound burden for the Big Green. Every player in the winning line-up cached in on at least one time at bat. The substitutes played the last two frames. from a skeleton team representing the Franklin Business Association. These wins give them standing room on the second rung with Freedmen's. A. G. O. took their match with Liberty Loan, who elected to forfeit. Freedmen's Hosp. 1st 2nd 3rd Total Dr. J.

PIRATES SHARE TWO SANDY SPRING CLASHES District Lads Annex Nightcap After Dropping Opener to Marylanders The Sandy Spring Stars scored one run in each the eighth and ninth innings to win the first game of their double bill with the Washington Pirates in the seascon opener on the former's grounds, last Sunday afternoon. They snatched the matinee tilt by a score of 2-1, but dropped the six-inning nightcap, 6-5. Adams and Hill collaborated to hold the Pirate hitters to four scattered bingles in the opening clash. Johnson, Buccaneer rightfielder, accounted for two of these. The Stars combed the offerings of Craig for seven safeties although the Pirate pitcher fanned 12 between times. Fifteen hits off three Sandy Spring pitches offset four visiting miscues and carried the Pirates to t victory in the finale. Two runs were secured in the second and three more were added in the fifth. Marshall and Tucker garnered three hits apiece in the offensive orgy of the District lads.

DUBOIS DISPLAYS CURIOSITY ABOUT CRAWFORD TRIAL DUBOIS DISPLAYS CURIOSITY ABOUT CRAWFORD TRIAL NEW YORK (ANP) — Though busy fighting off the attacks of the so-called anti-segregationists, Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor-in-chief of the Crisis, has found time in the current issue of the magazine to raise the question of what happened in the defense of George Crawford, convicted in Virginia of the murder of Mrs. Agnes Boeing Ilsley, white, and sentenced to life imprisonment. Crawford's defense was undertaken by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and Dean Charles Houston, of Howard University, was chief counsel. Dr. DuBois says that he has been unable to get a saitssfactory statement of the facts of the case.

Wants Explanation "Here is a situation that calls for frank and detailed explanation," asserts the Crisis editor, "The Crisis asked the defense attorney to write up a statement of the case before the trail. But he was too busy. Since the trial, it has been suggested that we publish the remarks which he made at that trial. We have seen no reason to do that. But we do ask that he or somebody else tell the Crisis and the public frankly just exactly what happened, because it seems to us that in so grave a case as this, either we should never have taken the case in the first place, or we should have fought it to the last ditch."

Miss Hood's application for admission to the course was accepted as are all others, on a two months' approval basis. If at the end of the two months the applicant does not qualify, one-half of the tuition is refunded and the student requested to withdraw. The recrood that Miss Hood has made is significant because she is the first Negro student admitted to this institution to take such a course. She has undoubtedly made the way easier for any of our group who may fellow. This historical institution is more than one hundred years old and the library school is twenty-five years old. This course has prepared Miss Hood to handle the records of any Class A hospital according to the requirement of the American College of Surgeons. There are but three such schools in the United States. The others are located in Rochester New York and San Francisco, Calif. GEORGIA PRISON HEADS ACCUSED ATLANT... Ga.

Three bishops and many other prominent leaders in the church work were present at the hearing. On the Air By Charles I. Brown CHICAGO. — Those who have heard that delightful hour of Negro music broadcast by Willard Robinson, first on a nation-wide hook-up and latterly over WOR, must have marvelled as I did; that a white man could have produced such exquisite harmonies built upon Negro themes. Both the spiritual motifs as well as those built upon African themes or those of syncopated origin had that indefinable something which stamped them as being truly racial. While giving Mr. Robinson credit, I had assumed that the truly classical development which the music reproduced showed, was the result of his Nordic touch. It is with profound appreciation, therefore, that I learned that a colored man was the arranger and producer of the music used during the Willard Robinson hour. He is Wm. Grant Still, of California. Recently awarded a Guggenheim fellowship he is to return to California for serious composition effort covering the next year. Mr. Still is a devotee of mysticism. He delves into ancient East Indian lore as a hobby and is said to be an arden believer in reincarnation. ... Alda Ward, singing star of several editions of the Cotton Club Revue, and "Fats" Waller, versatile radio personality, joined the "Harlem Serenade," cast on the WABC-Columbia network, last Tuesday.

She extolled the sepia singer's artistry on stage and screen in unstinted terms, and Miss Moten responded by singing "Carioca" even better than I had yet heard her do it. Later "Baby Marie," her mother, father and a party visited Miss Moten at the Academy of Music where they presented her with a beautiful bouquet across the footlights. Negro Health Week got an excellent play over local radio stations the country over. In most of the large cities time was given for local representatives to tell of the work being done by the National Negro Health Movement. In Chicago, Dr. M. O. Bousfield, president of the National Negro Medical Association, was the speaker. Dr. Numa P. G. Adams is chairman of the Negro Health Movement. GREEK WORKERS ATTACKED BY ITALIAN GUARDS FOR VOTING CONTRARY TO ORDERS Athens.—Greek workers Mving on the the island of Rhodes felt the keen edge of the fiscus sword last week when they attempted to assert their legal voting rights. At least ten persons were killed, many wounded, and several hundred taken prisoners when rioting broke out in Salaco, over the efforts of the Italian Carabinieri to force the voters to elect the government's candidate for mayor. Non-Italian citizens having been disarmed several years ago, they were compelled to use sticks and stones in combatting the attacks of the carabinieri. P. M. TURDAY UOR STORE 10 H Street, N.E. Roy W.

Tibbs, 601 Howard Place, director of the School of Music, Howard University, narrowly escaped serious injury Saturday night at 11 o'clock when his automobile was struck and almost completely demolished by a taxicab said to have been driven by Roy K. Childress, white, 24, 644 Park Road, Northwest. According to police, Prof. Tibbs was going south on Georgia Avenue in the same direction as the cab when he attempted to make a left turn. The machine was struck on the left side and knocked on the sidewalk. Prof. Tibbs was stunned from the impact and was given first aid at the home of a resident in the block. He sustained a bruise on the head and was shaken up. He did not require hospital treatment. The side of the car was crushed in and damage was estimated at about $100. The cab driver was not seriously hurt. The sound of the crash brought a large crowd and police from the Second Precinct. No arrest was made as it was decided that the case would be settled out of court. WOMAN INJURED AS WALL FALLS WOMAN INJURED AS WALL FALLS (Continued from page 1 ) down the building, employed by the Emergency Works Administration, had demolished three walls of the ancient brick dwelling, located in the 2800 block of Georgia Avenue, leaving the north wall standing to a height of one story. Shortly after these men had completed their day's work, Mrs. Callan visited the structure in search of firewood. At the same time a group of neighborhood boys began to play inside the structure, tearing away plaster and bricks from the walls. This so weakened the wall that it finally crashed down upon the woman, burying her in plaster and scrap-wood to the waist. She was assisted from her predicament by her son, Alexander, 10, who removed the debris which covered her, helped her to her feet, and assisted her in walking across the vacant lot between Georgia Avenue and Ninth Street to her home. Rushed at once to Freedmen's Hospital in the patrol of No. 2 precinct, she was given emergency treatment for bruises and shock by Dr. M. M. Christian, of the emergency staff of that institution, and later sent home. During his 43 years of service as court reporter, D. C.

The committee, in its petition, states that intermittent floods of this creek halt street cars, wash out bridges, block roads, flood houses, and cause damage running into thousands of dollars each year. More than once, it is pointed out, it has been necessary to call out the fire department to rescue citizens from their flooded homes. The estimated cost of a sewer to control the course of the stream is $750,000. The cost of improving the parkway in this section, now being planned by the Park and Planning Commission, is $317,000. Other flood relief projects in this area will increase the total cost by $200,000. The second item contained in the petition calls for the development of Section G of Anacostia Park, as outlined in the plans of the Park and Planning Commission. This project will call for the construction of a golf course, stadium, and other features of a complete recreational center. Recommended by Commissions The item, it is said, was recommended by the D.C. Commissioners and the Park Commission to Secretary of the Interior Ickes for a P.W.A. grant in 1933. The estimated cost is $25,000. The third request is for an emergency branch hospital and clinic, to be centrally located in the far Northeast, and beyond the Anacostia River. The nearest hospital for this area is Callinger, which is about four miles distance. The new hospital will cost $100,000, according to estimates. Item No. 4 calls for the erection of a branch of the public library in far Northwest Washington, east of the Anacostia River and north of Bennings Road and Central Avenue. The present population of this area is said to be about 25,000, and at the present rate of growth the population will be doubled within the next fifteen years. There are 1,870 children in the three elementary schools in this area, the committee points out, as well as several hundred others who attend high schools in the city. Land for this proposed library will cost $20,000, according to estimates, and the building itself will cost $120,000. The final major request for the Northeast section is for a recreational center to be located at Fiftieth and Hayes Streets, site of the present privately owned Suburban Gardens. This center, it is said, will serve an area of at least four square miles, the center of which is two miles distant from Anacostia Park. Projects requested for Southwest Washington include a branch of the public library, to be built at an estimated cost of $100,000, and a recreational center to be obtained as part of the Slum Clearance program. For Southeast, several playgrounds are requested, these also to be obtained through the Slum Clearance Program.

Cobb On Bench BROTHERS LOSE SCHOOL CONTRACT Armstrong Graduates Fail to Post $10,000 Bond to Build Structure Despite the fact that their bid was the lowest and they were awarded the contract, the Morrison Brothers, contractors, of 1130 Girard Street, will not be given opportunity to build an eight-room brick school at Fairmont Heights. Md. because the firm was unable to post a bond of $10,000. The brothers, both graduates of Armstrong High School, were awarded the contract to erect the structure following the announcement of Superintendent Nichols Orem of Prince Georges County. The bid was $31,733 and was $266 under the P.W.A. allotment of $22,000. The building will have a capacity of nearly 500 students and will replace an old four-room frame building which has been in use almost twenty years. However, the brothers, R. A. and W. P. Morrison, have announced that they will bid on several dispensaries which are to be erected in the county and they have made arrangements to have bonds of any amount taken care of. building with assembly hall and gymnasium in place of the present building, which is now being used by white students. This will necessitate the purchase of additional land on S Street and the replacement of slum dwellings in interior courts in this square by school playgrounds. The estimated cost of the land necessary for the project is $100,000, and the estimated cost of the building is $420,000. 2. The addition of a modern automobile shop and gymnasium to Armstrong Hgh School at a cost of $70,000, with a connecting corridor to be erected at a cost of $45,000. 3. An addition to the Young Platoon School, said to be very badly needed because of present overcrowded conditions. The addition can be built for an estimated $120,000. 4. The construction of a senior high school for the Northeastern section of the District, to be built at Twenty-fourth Street and Bennings Road on land now in public ownership. The limit of the total cost of this building will be $1,500,000, and the estimated cost is slightly lower than the contract price for the Roosevelt Senior High School, which was $1,210,000. It is said that there are at least eight hundred high school pupils in the Northeast section of the city who would use this school in preference to Dunbar or Armstrong, both of which are located in the Northwest. Plans and specifications for the new building would cost $30,000, it is estimated, and the total cost of schools, buildings, and grounds should not run more than $1,000,000. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE.

Mr. Scott finished from the public and high schools of Wilmington, and then went to Biddle University, Charlotte, North Carolina, where he graduated at the age of 21, second honor man, with the degree of bachelor of arts. Completed Law Course As a young man he decided to become a lawyer, and while still in Biddle University, privately read law. The next year, after he graduated from Biddle, he went to Shaw University, and took up the study of law, finishing the three year course in two years. Before receiving his diploma in law, he took the bar examination before the judges of the Supreme Court of North Carolina, passed, and was admitted to practice law in the State. On graduating from Shaw University, he was given the degree of LLB.

He practiced law in his home town, Wilmington, for a few months, and then came to Washington, D.C., was admitted to the bar here, and has been practicing in this city ever since. He has not only practiced successfully before all of the courts of the District of Columbia, but has been a member of the Supreme Court of the United States for 27 years. Noted Cases Argued Some of the cases successfully argued by Mr. Scott before the Court of Appeals are: Fields vs. the District of Columbia, involving the vagrancy law of the District, in which he succeeded in having the decision of the lower court reversed, and which revolutionized the laws regarding vagrancy in the District of Columbia; the case of Henry Nelson vs. United States, in WILEY COLLEGE TO CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY MARSHALL, Tex.

BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL Available Evidence Shows Negro Labor Just as Efficient as White Although exhaustive studies on the subject of the comparative inefficiency of white labor and black labor are not available, such data as are obtainable in no way support the theory that black labor is less efficient than white, Dr. Robert C. Weaver told the Associated Negro Press this week. Dr. Weaver is an economist and an associate of Dr. Clark Foreman as advisor on the economic status of the Negro in the department of the interior. "Since Negro workers do not enjoy equal working conditions in American industry, there is no direct evidence to refute or prove this assertion of relative inefficiency," stated Dr. Weaver. "However, there are some pertinent data, not held to be scientific indices, such as investigations of employers' attitudes and a special study made in one industry." Dr. Weaver submits figures obtained by the Detroit Bureau of Government Research concerning employer attitude, covering 120 firms. Of this group 11 employers, employing 5,102 Negro workers, stated in 1926 that these workers were more efficient than whites; 68, employing 12,631 believed the efficiency was the same; 24, employing 2,729, stated Negroes were less efficient, and 17 gave no answers. Pennsylvania Survey The Department of Public Welfare in Pennsylvania conducted a similar survey. In that state, 14 of 56 employers, having 1,780 Negroes in their employ, felt that Negroes were more efficient; 32, with 6,400 hired, said they were just as efficient; and 10, with 1,120 employees, stated they were less efficient. The Chicago Commission on Race Relations investigated employer opinion on the efficiency of Negroes in 1920 and found 71 employers who considered the Negro equally efficient and 22 who thought him less so. More striking than any of the Reporter Sees Execution (Continued from page 1) rid himself of his troubles by separation from the home ties. I looked on as he, walking about the streets of Georgetown, fought his battles over and over in his mind. finally reaching the decision that ultimately brought him this untimely end—this walk of the "last mile." **Marches to Tune of Hymn** The strains of the hymn, "Higher Ground," came to me as the first indication that this march had begun. The voice was masculine, strong, unwavering. I turned and beheld at the head of the steps a young man of medium height, clothed in white duck pants, white shirt opened at the neck and no tie. For one brief moment he stood there, but only for a moment. His gaze, as he surveyed the room, seemed to fall directly on me. The eyes, much to my surprise, were not fixed. Instead they moved about as he took his first step down toward us. "Lord, lift me up and let me stand," went the words of the hymn, "My feet on Heaven's stable land," the voice was charged with virility. "A higher place than I have found," his gait was steady as he reached our position, "Lord, plant my feet on higher ground." The procession had stopped in front of the chair. Bolden stepped in, unassisted. There was nothing awkward about that step. He did not seem to say. "What is this thing that is to snap out my life? This mechanism that will burn my spine and tear out my senses and still my heart while straps hold me fast?" He held no fear. He sat' down and said no more. The words of the hymn were his last earthly utterances. He went out unfaired, unquestioning, unaccompanied. "Let not your heart be troubled," began the Reverend James L. Pinn, spiritual advisor of the doomed man. The hymn was the last Bolden said. The prayer was the last Bolden heard—unless the faint click of the lever hitting the socket in the ante-room reached his ears. Or unless the dying strains of "Swing Low Sweet Chairoi," from across the upstairs rotunda could be heard by him. The droning of the motors ceased. I opened my eyes. Bolden was the latest to pay the penalty as mated out by society for the crime of killing. It matters not that capital punishment, sought as a means to prevent murders, has failed. It makes no difference that Bolden's electrocution will not serve to stop future slayings. It took our civilization seventeen years to learn that punishment for drinking alcoholic beverages would not put a stop to that usage. The consideration of human lives spent in sacrifice is far less important. Had Killed Two Bolden killed his wife, Elie Bolden, and his mother-in-law, Mrs. Jennie Plummer, in July, 1932, in a house in the 1200 block of Thirty-seventh Street. It took nearly two years for our Christian government to determine a way to avenge those killings. Umindful of the fate which awaited him on the morrow. Bolden Holds No Fear foregoing perhaps is a survey of the tobacco industry in North Carolina, made in 1930. The firms considered employed practically all the Negroes working in the tobacco industry, many whites being employed, but not at the same types of work. Of the seven employers questioned, one, employing 1,200 workers, said Negroes were more efficient; three, employing 13,677 workers, believed they were just as efficient; none replied that they were less efficient, and three gave no answer. Thus it would appear from these statements that the bulk of many employers feel the Negro worker is just as efficient and that there are more who feel he is more efficient than there are who think he is less so. In the Meat Industry Mr. Weaver also submitted a summary of a study made in the meat packing industry in Chicago, published in 1932. The study was made by Alma Herbst to determine the relative number of blacks and whites who earned premiums under the Bedoux Premium Wage Payment Plan. She found that the percentage of Negro men earning the larger premiums was much larger than that of the white men. The economist stated: "Fifteen and one-tenth per cent of the white women eligible for premiums, as contrasted to 6.5 per cent of the Negro women of the same group, failed to receive these extra payments." "The percentages receiving premiums up to five dollars was about the same as between races. "However, 16.3 per cent of the colored women, as contrasted to 8.8 of the white women receiving premiums, enjoyed extra earnings of five dollars a week." Dr. Weaver believes that the foregoing analysis indicate that the Negro's efficiency varies in proportion to the favorableness of his working conditions. had slept well the night before. Just prior to retiring, the doomed man had been visited by a brother, Joseph, and a sister, Mrs. Edith Carroll. A breakfast of hot cake, sausage, toast and coffee was offered him upon awakening. He refused everythi- but the coffee. He left no messages, indicating to the end that he wanted as little notoriety as possible under the circumstances. Six newspaper reporters filed out of the door of the fall. We had been assigned to the business of "covering" the story. Balden's trip down that "last mile" was just goo copy for reporters who write for papers which are winted for people to read. INSURANCE CO. HAS 74,000 POLICYHOLDERS In making public the figures of its operations for 1933, the statement of Supreme Liberty Life Insurance Company with headquarters in Chicago, issued this week disclosed advances made along many lines during a year of financial chaos, according to President Harry H. Pace. During 1933 the company had a record breaking year during the year 68,437 new policies for a total of $13,584,592 of insurance. It issued 3,322 new ordinary policies for a total of $2,509,875 of insurance. Despite heavy lapsation, due to unemployment, it closed the year with an acute increase of 18,469 policies over last year, having 74,919 policyholders with outstanding insurance amounting to $23,011,341 in force on its books, an increase of over $1,500,000 for the year. Cash assets increased over $20,000 during the the year, the company closing the year with the largest cash balance in its history, having total cash on hand and in banks of $76,878.24. A small portion of this cash is in closed banks, but the Company has already charged off as non-admitted assets an amount sufficient to more than cover any actual loss for this loss from this source. At the end of the year the company had met every current obligation that was due. The company is now collecting over $7,500 weekly in its industrial department along. It has twenty-seven branch offices in eleven states with a U Street agency here.

The Pirates clearly unclassified their rivals in the foot races, but the ability of the Trojans in the field events proved to be the margin of the decisive victory. EXERCISES FOR MAY DAY HELD BY SCHOOLS Senior High Schools Hold Program Tuesday; Head Explains Purpose A large crowd of parents, friends and teachers was on hand to witness the annual May Day exercises of the local high schools, held in the Walker Stadium, Tuesday. Dances, games, competitive sports and drills featured the program as follows: The purpose of the exercises as explained by Edwin B. Henderson, head of the department of physical education for the District of Columbia public schools, Divisions 10 to 13, is as follows: Annual May Day activities are being held to: 1. Demonstrate some of the games, dances, and events used in the daily school program to help boys and girls grow strong, keep healthy, and happy. 2. Exhibit some of the types of games and sports that if learned and liked during school days may and should be used after school today, and possibly in the life of tomorrow. 3. Show the types of activities in which the boy and girl may and should develop social traits and attitudes suitable to social cooperation. These traits may be observed in play. Some are: sportsmanship, fair-play, balanced regard for winning and losing, courtesy, courage, and restraint under stress of competition. The New Deal means more leisure, more of the spiritual life greater concern for health, and more need for social cooperation.

CHUNN Spring breezes, bare-legged sprinters, loose-jointed gluttonies for punishment—the distance runners—spring-limbed hurdlers and a flock of plain, everyday lads who simply like to run are flipping about the premises of leading Southern college and high schools in preparation for the Eighth Annual Tuskegee Relay Carnival to be held at Tuskegee Institute, May 11-12. No single event can rival in Southern athletics the brilliance and thrilling performance of the Tuskegee Relays. Every year, it has grown in momentum until it stands today, the greatest of them all. Hundreds of athletes from far and wide, thousands of spectators trek to the Alabama institution annually to witness its results. The Tuskegee officials, who attend to the housing of the guests and the elaborate entertainment make the day a memorial one in the lives of those who attend. "Y" Marathon Entry List Grows From the number of entries coming at this early date the Fifth Annual Twelfth Street "Y" Marathon will have a record field to start the event May 26. The New York "Y" and the Philadelphia Christian Street "Y" are sending representatives. The local association team is priming With regret we announce that Morris Brown College, one of the outstanding participants, will not send a representative track team to the meet. Morehouse College, Clark University, Washington High School, and David T. Howard Junior High will as usual send strong teams to the relays. Coach Forbs, Morehouse mentor, has been rounding his squad into condition since the latter part of March. "Georgia Boy", Widemon, Ulysses Robinson, Lightning Curry and McCurrine will carry Morehouse and should make a strong team.

Shag Courtney, the Indiana wonder, scored 28 of his team's points by walking away with five first places and one second. Borican, running three races, broke the C.I.A.A. record in the half mile by finishing in two minutes flat, a few yards ahead of the flashy Cooper, of Hampton. In the mile and two-mile runs he ran into stiff competition and lost them both to Lipscomb, of Hampton, who eclipsed the conference record for the mile in 4:28 and ran the two miles in 10:19. The dashes were run comparatively fast for the early season. Sullivan, of Hampton, streaked down the track in 10:03 in the hundred and finished close on the heels of Booker, of Hampton, in the 220, Dummore, Hampton freshman, showed promise by running away with the open 440 and running a brilliant anchor leg on the mile relay. The relay was perhaps the most interesting race of the meet. Booker and Boone finished the first leg on even terms Greenwood lost a few yards to Byrd, of Hampton; Madden gained on Sullivan, and Dummore and Carroll started off on the anchor leg together. The Philadelphia freshman soon took the lead and came in victoriously about eight yards ahead of his rival.

Machines have made it necessary to secure happiness in a regime of leisure greater than since the Stone Age. Some say the day of "Rugged Individualism" in economic life is over. But rugged individuals trained to live happily and to cooperate for social good are yet desirable. Today you will see some of the ways in which young Americans may spend their leisure profitably to themselves, and to the communities in which they live.

(ANP)—Although Tom Carraway has escaped execution seven times and the Supreme Court set May 21 for his hanging last Monday, his counsel, former Lieutenant Gov. Bidwell Adams, is unwilling to give up the fight. He proposes to file a suggestion of error in the case. He says: "In view of the fact that the trial judge had expressed the belief that Carraway should be granted a new trial and that two of the Supreme Court judges dissented from the majority opinion handed down Monday, the only fair thing any lawyer could do in following the line of duty would be to file a suggestion of error."

PEARLIE’S PRATTLE All About Lovely Ladies and | Big, Bold, Wonderful Men How these magic May days are bringing out the lowers! And if 1 were some fairy godmother and could forget altogether about the “beastly old budget” I'd buy a lot of beautiful bouquets (violets, ca- nations, gardenias and even some ‘orgeous orchids) and send them to Miss Harriet Mitchell, of 908 Howard Road, Southeast, just be- cause she is such a delightful lit- tle body. Talk about the Person- ality Improvement Courses that are being offered in certain schools, well Harriet seems to have an A.B. and an A.M. too, and she has never been inside of a’ personality schoo!. You see her first and say right away, “It’s her smile that intrigues you.” Bpt, no, a second glimpse reminds you that her charm lies in her eyes. And when she turns square about to grect you, it is then thet you find out just how captivating the flutter of long lash- €3 can be, and how piquant an ex- pression can be imparted to laugh- ing eyes by tricky little quirks of pretty eyebrows. With the whole Mitchell’ family it seems to be a matter of “the eyes have it and so ordered” anyway. (No, I didn’t mean the “ayes”.) ‘There's Har- riet's. mother, slim, smiling Mrs. Pauline Mitchell; there are her brothers, Harold and Graham; and still emphasizing eyes, there's ‘Har- riet’s aunt, vivacious Mrs. Ethel Graham Green, wife of Dr. Jesse Green.

Chase Addresses Group at Brentwood Meeting A boys' club was organized recently at Brentwood, Md., under the supervision of Mrs. Moss, community worker in that section. Miss V. E. Chase, initial sponsor of the boys' club movement in the schools of Washington, addressed the assembly on "Directing Leisure Time in the New Era." Points stressed included: Value of closer companionship between father and son. Necessity for the exchange of confidence between father and son. Wholesome recreation activities. Other prominent speakers were the mayor, two ministers, and the scout master, who announced his set-up of a scout unit. Twenty boys were inducted into the Brentwood Club for which great interest was manifested by the citizens present. Baptist C.E. Society Honors Mrs. Mary Brown The Senior Christian Endeavor Society of Third Baptist Church paid homage to Mrs. Mary F. Brown, retiring president of the society, with a testimonial banquet held in the Sunday School auditorium of the church last week. Mrs. Brown, who had served as president of the society for five years, was not elected again this year only because she "did not choose to run." During her tenure of office she led the Society from obscurity to leadership among the twenty-one churches that make up the Golden Rule Christian Endeavor Union of the District of Columbia. In brief remarks extolling the work of Mrs. Brown, the Rev. George O. Bullock, pastor of the church, said, "I know the road which this great leader has travelled as head of this organization has not been an easy one, nor has she received the co-operation that she desired at all times. But fortunately she was a woman inspired—she had a vision, and trusting in Jesus Christ for strength, she drove on." James Brown, president of the Golden Rule C.E. Union, also paid a stirring tribute to the leadership of Mrs. Brown. Other speakers were Deacon B. C. Dodson, Mrs. R. J. Gray, Miss Elie Gray, Mrs. Rachel Ferguson, Mrs. Mary Manning, James Moss, Miss Sarah White, and Mrs. Bessie R. Taylor, present president of the Senior Christian Endeavor, Society of the church. Presentations to Mrs. Brown in behalf of the society were made by Miss France. Bullock, Miss Wilhelmina Bullock, and Clarence Reed.

Church where the Rev. Mr. Brown was vector for twenty nine years, accompanied him and furnished the music under the direction of their leader, Mr. Louis Brown. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. THURSDAY. MAY 3. 1934 FOOD HINTS FOR SHOPPERS Butter Low Priced; Now You Can Use it Freely By GERTRUDE C. FRAZIER Butter prices are the lowest they have been since 1900, according to a market specialist of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. During the past month butter has been selling between 50 and 55 cents for two pounds. Not so good for the dairyman, but that's the state of things, and there is no reason why the thrifty homemaker should not take advantage of present prices. Give the family plenty of the foods that you put butter on—vegetables that turn a spoonful of butter into a tempting hot golden sauce; hot bread—corn muffins, spoon bread, popovers, biscuits, and lots of butter. And don't forget sandwiches, spread generously with butter. It serves a two-fold purpose in addition to its rich food value. It adds flavor, and is also a liquid-proof coating for the bread, if you wish to put in a moist or minced filling. Incidentally, sandwich fillings will utilize a great many of the aggravating saucerfuls of leftovers that are too small to reheat. Just put the end of the ham or the leftover celery through the meat grinder, mix the butter, and some chopped lettuce, and spread. Open-faced sandwiches are also attractive. The English often serve very thin buttered bread with afternoon tea, and in this country we use raisin bread and nut bread in much the same way. You need not feel extravagant about making fairly rich cookies quite often just now. Like the delicious vanilla wafers for which a recipe is given below, drop cookies, brownies, sand tarts, rocks, and some of the many kinds of cup cakes are convenient to serve with summer beverages like ice tea or lemonade. Make good old-fashioned pound cake occasionally, and you can make some mocha or orange butter icing for your layer cakes for a change. Sauces containing a large amount of butter may be indulged in at present—Hollandiaise sauce with any green vegetable or fish—hard sauce with summer fruit puddings.

The small individual molds make the salad plates especially attractive, but a ring or other fancy single mold might be used if the salad is served from a platter. While the blend of flavors selected is exceptionally good, other vegetables could be added or substituted, and the gelatin mixture could be made of meat stock stiffened with plain gelatin.

SANITARY and PIGGLY WIGGLY FOOD STORES Where Quality Counts Fish Are Valuable as Low Cost Food Like other animal foods, fish are rich in protein. It is rich also in minerals, especially in phosphorus. Saltwater fish and shellfish are rich in iodine, which is another substance required by the human body. In regions where the soil, and consequently the drinking water, and vegetables grown in that soil, are poor in iodine, the iodine content of saltwater fish is important. According to nutritionists of the U. S. Bureau of Fisheries, some kinds of fish, notably cod, salmon, haddock, and sea herring, have been found to be good sources of vitamins A. and D. It is well to use the oil in a can of salmon for sauce or in salad dressing, if possible, to obtain the full vitamin value. Because of its high food value, and comparatively little waste, it pays to watch the market for bargains in fish. Fresh fish bargains are likely to be a matter of locality and season. For example, the shad come on the Atlantic coastal rivers in the spring. Atlantic salmon are caught in New England rivers in early spring. At the same time the boats and nets are out for lake trout in the Great Lakes, for mackerel along the Middle Atlantic Coast, and for Pacific salmon on the West Coast. Other fish are most plentiful in the fall or winter. Some of the best bargains in fishery products, however, are all-year fish from both fresh and salt water that are shipped, fresh, or fresh-frozen, to different parts of the country. Fresh haddock, mackerel, halibut, salmon, fresh cod and various other fishes from the Atlantic and Pacific are frozen and shipped to many distant markets, as well as lake herring and blue and yellow pike from the lakes. Frozen fish, it should be remembered, are fresh fish. Canned sardines, canned pink salmon, kippered herring, salt cod, cod flakes, canned herring roe, and other canned and cured fish are all good and nutritious, and usually low in price.
