NUMBERS RACKETEER SHOT BY PARAMOUR Bedroom Slaying of Father Described by Eleven-Year-Old Son Lad Tells Coroner's Jury How "Daddy" Met Death By Mother's Rival CHARLES BEATTY SHOT BY HIS PARAMOUR Youngster Wins Sympathy of Inquest Assemblage; Girl Had Tried Suicide A neatly dressed, intelligent little youngster, whose curly hair waved in response to breezes from the lone electric fan in the room, was compelled to tell how his father had fallen across him, lying half-asleep in his bed, dead at the hands of his mother's rival, at the District Morgue, Monday. Forced to describe the scene which greeted his eyes as he opened them in the darkness of the hours just before dawn, little Alfred Beatty, just turned eleven, held back tears from his eyes and the lump from his throat. Prying eyes of a coroner's jury, newspaper men and a handful of spectators, all of whom he looked upon as people who sought to uncover the secrets of his father's life, he faced with unwavering calm. Showed No Emotion He showed no outward trace of emotion. He acted much as if he played a part. Had this been fictional instead of actual he might easily have stolen the "show." But little Alfred's father, Charles Beatty, had been killed, shot to death, earlier that morning, by Mrs. Carlotta (Bobbie) Harris, his peroxide blonde girl friend. And the child was here to tell his story to the coroner's jury holding an inquest. He did that. He told what he saw as he lay in his bed at the home, 1833 Fourteenth Street, Northwest. Saw Father Shot In a clear, balanced voice, young Alfred pictured being awakened by voices raised in argument shortly after 5 o'clock, Monday mornings. His eyes, taking in the situation, saw "Bobbie," as he called her, with upraised revolver pointed at his father, the latter standing near a door he held open. He saw the woman's finger tighten on the trigger-hold, heard the ensuing discharge which sent a bullet tearing at the heart of his "daddy" and then felt the weight of his parent as he pitched forward across his feet. Powerless, he lay there as his COMING EVENTS Thursday (Today) 8 P.M.—Meeting of Howard General Alumni Association. Andrew Rankin Chapel.

Again the pistol was raised, this time in the direction of his mother, he said, but with his pleading the girl stayed the finger that might have left him parentless. Says She Was Threatened Throughout the ordeal the lad possessed the poise of masculine maturity. Only when his sobbing mother was led, to the witness stand did he so much as bury his face in his hands, and then only for the fraction of a minute he took to brush an unruly strand of hair from his brow. The mother corroborated the story told by her son. In her statement to police, Mrs. Harris, a waitress at the Progressive Democrat Club, 612 T Street, Northwest, said she shot Beatty after he told her he wanted nothing more to do with her and ordered her from his house. She asserted that he had threatened her with a stick prior to the shooting. Heard Argument Frank Williams, an official at the club, told of having heard an argument in the T Street house earlier in the morning just before the place was closed to business. His testimony was to the effect that the girl was incensed at not having been assured by Beatty that he would leave his wife to live with her. He also declared that the girl had attempted suicide in February for the same reason. Following the shooting, Mrs. Harris went out into Fourteenth Street and boarded the running-board of an automobile and, with the pistol on the driver, ordered him to drive out U Street. At Eleventh and U Streets, she met Officer J. S. McWirt, in a Second Precinct Scout car, and gave herself up to him. The driver of the machine went his way, unknown. Miss Harris Held Beatty as well known in the underworld and was said to have been one of the biggest operators of the numbers game in Washington. Mrs. Harris was ordered held for the action of the grand jury. (Continued on page two) PARKS' OHIO DIVORCE BALKED An order commanding Thomas W. Parks, wellknown attorney and real estate man, of 207 Florida Avenue, Northwest to appear before the District Supreme Court on June 14, and show cause why he should not be enjoined from continuing a divorce suit in Cleveland, Ohio, against his wife, Mrs. Ethel M. Parks, of 1718 Second Street, Northwest, was signed by Justice Daniel O'Donoghue, Tues. day. Mrs. Parks filed suit for a limited divorce in the local courts, last week with a request that Mr. Parks be prevented from prosecuting a suit in Cleveland. The court order was the result. Mr. Parks is reported to have been in Cleveland, last week, to appear in the proceedings he instituted there. Upon representations from John H. Wilson, attorney for Mrs. Parks, the Cleveland judge indefinitely postponed the suit of Mr. Parks. In the meantime, Mr. Parks is paying $100 a month toward the support of his wife and their two children. Mrs. Parks states that her husband realizes approximately $6,000 a year from his real estate and law businesses. She also declared in her petition that Mr. Parks signed an agreement on November 25, 1932, to pay $100 a month towards the support of herself and children. Mrs. Parks claims that he is in default of about $200. The wife's petition also asserts that Mr. Parks has instituted divorce proceedings in the Court of Common Pleas, in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, alleging that he is a resident there. Mrs. Parks contends that her husband is a resident of the District and that he should be enjoined from continuing his case there. In addition, she asks the court to award her the usual alimony pending the final disposition of the case, permanent alimony, and counsel fees. The declaration was filed through Attorney John H. Wilson. Washington Tribune JUDGESHIP STILL IN BALANCE White Representative Upholds Negro's Right To Eat in House Cafe Says Teacher Struck Girl With Chair During Va. State Strike Vol. XIV, No. 6 JUDG Hidden White Rep Upholds Ne To Eat in Congressman Woolfenden Labels Color Bar As un-Constitutional CHARGES CHAIRMAN EXCEEDED AUTHORITY DePriest Set to Quizz Warren on Order to Debar BULLETIN The sub-committee of the House of Representatives investigating the exclusion of Negroes from the House restaurant completed its hearings in an executive session, Wednesday, and a report on the floor of the House is expected momentarily. The investigators had held a previous executive session on the matter, Monday, following an unequivocal denouncement of the practice by Congressman James Woolfenden, Republican, of Pennsylvania Barring of any citizen from the public restaurant of the House of Representatives was termed a direct violation of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution by Congressman James Woolfenden, R., Pa., before the special committee investigating the refusal of service to colored persons in the House restaurant, Monday morning. Mr. Woolfenden declared that no power had been given to Representative Lindsay Warren D, S.C., chairman of the committee of accounts in charge of the restaurant to bar anyone. The Pennsylvania Congressman averred that any exclusion of persons from the restaurant by Mr. Warren was done Says Teach Chair D Strike Leaders Give Their Side of Affair at Petersburg College PETERSBURG, Va. (Special to The Tribune)—Four of the former students of Virginia State College who were suspended by President John M. Gandy for their participation in the recent strike consented to give The Tribune an exclusive statement of their side of the controversy today. After 22 students and one faculty member, Prof. Lewis K. McMillan, were suspended, the strike ended and the rest of the students went back to their classes last week. The statement signed by Horace C. Johnson, acting chairman of the Student Committee; Robert M. Parrish, Paul M. Young, and Robert H. Smith follows: Social Problem not Main Cause "There are always two sides to every question, but the administration of Virginia State College for Negroes has failed to recognize this fact. It has been noticed that only one side of this question has been published. "The social problem was not the sole foundation of this strike. On May 22 the student body voted that since President Gandy and the executive body had refused to recognize a petition submitted by the student welfare committee that a letter asking for a definite on his own authority. Following the statement of the single witness, the group went into executive session to compile its report for the general body. Congressman Oscar De Priest, who offered the resolution calling for an investigation of the discriminatory act following an insult to Morris Lewis, his secretary, and son, was present. Congressman Warren, who has previously sought to defend his right to deny services to colored people, was absent. Mr. DePriest, it is understood, intended to question Mr. Warren directly about his authority in establishing a discriminatory rule. In his statements before the body, Mr. Woolfenden stated, "At no time since I have been a member of Congress or on the accounts committee has there been any authority for discrimination on account of race or color. I have known of no such case prior to January 23, 1934, when Mr. Lewis was refused service," Mr. Woolfenden continued. In answer to a question put by a member of the committee, the Pennsylvania Congressman said, "The barring of anybody from the public restaurant of the House of Representatives in unconstitutional, and is especially so when service is denied to colored people." Mr. Lewis, in a previous meeting, read a statement giving the full account of the manner in which he and his son were refused service in January of this year. Mr. Lewis offered to present witnesses before the committee who would testify relative to the exclusion of colored persons. Admission by by members that there had been a practice of discrimination precluded the necessity of having them appear. Represents All In a statement to The Tribune (Continued from page 2) PETER H.

Pinkett, secretary, this week. The drive was for $3,000. This amount is expected to be over-subscribed as money is coming in from day to day from persons who took out memberships and are late in sending in their contributions, said Mr. Pinkett. A check for $1,206 was recently sent to the national office in New York from the local branch. Mr. Robert P. McGuire is president of the brancer.

The students did not attend classes at all that day but picketed them because their platform had been ignored. The president did not carry out his ultimatum as all of the students remained at the college. The administration asked that the student committee meet the executive committee at 2 p.m. that day. The meeting took place at 2:10 p.m. in the president's office. Charge Filibuster At this meeting the student committee presented their platform and grievances. The members of the executive body with the exception of Professor Rawley did nothing but filibuster and digress from the points at issue; thereby failing to work toward a definite decision, in regard to the platform and grievances. In the midst of this meeting the telephone rang. After President Gandy had answered the phone it appeared as though the (Continued on page 4) GRIFFITH AGAIN NAMED RULER OF COLUMBIA LODGE Allen A. C.

Scott, who has been recommended for the post by U. S. Attorney General Cummings, told The Tribune that he believed the rumor to be groundless in view of previous announcements in behalf of Horner by the same daily paper. Mr. Scott's name was submitted to the White House several weeks ago, but returned to the Attorney General's office following certain objections. He is still a strong contender in the race. Houston is Mentioned The third name mentioned in connection with the judgeship is Attorney William L. Houston. He denied knowledge of any developments as stated in the news report. Mr. Houston stated, "I don't know anything about it. I hope, however, when an appointment is made it will be of a man who has met and possesses the qualifications required by the code, a man who can reflect credit upon the bench and the bar." 7 Reports in a daily paper that R. R. Horner, attorney and former member of the board of education, would be named as successor to Judge James A. Cobb on the Municipal bench this week, were unconfirmed up to a late hour today (Thursday). An assistant to Stephen T. Early, secretary to President Roosevelt, informed a representative of The Tribune just before press time that no recommendation for the post had been sent to the Senate for confirmation. Just when this would be done could not be ascertained, neither could it be learned whether the recommendation was imminent. However, it was stated that Mr. Roosevelt might make his selection "at any time." When the report was called to the attention of Mr. Horner, he declared, "Newspaper comments are not always reliable. I am not in a position to say anything about the matter at the present time." Houston is Mentioned Although Judge Cobb has numerous endorsements for reappoint (Continued on page 2) D. C. ALLEYS DOOMED BY JULY 1 Plan to Provide Low Cost Housing to Care for Alley Dwellers With the signature of President Roosevelt this week, the Capper bill for Government acquisition and demolition of every alley dwelling here will become a law, effective July 1. On that date the Public Works Administration will make available $500,000 of the national slum clearance fund for the project. The bill awaiting the President's signature forbids occupancy of any building in an alley after July 1, 1984. No application will have to be filed for this money. Officials of the National Park and Planning Commission, which has been working on the alley problem for a number of years and will be designated by the President to eliminate the slum hovels, revealed that the $500,000 of the national fund was earmarked several months ago for use here. Work Begins July 1 The Commission, which probably will have the cooperation of the Board of Public Welfare, Building Inspector, Health Department and Police Department, already has its program for hovel elimination prepared and will be ready to begin the work on July 1.

Sweet, of Colorado, now educational director of the N.R.A., will deliver the address at Howard University's sixty-fifth commencement exercises, Friday afternoon, in the university stadium, at 5 o'clock. Governor Sweet has spoken widely throughout the country during the past year on the program and significance of the National Industrial Recovery Act. He is a most enthusiastic admirer of President Roosevelt and believes that under the President's leadership the country will achieve a new and rejuvenated prosperity when it has had time to thoroughly test the economic principles which are the basis of the President's program. Born in Chicago Governor Sweet was born in Chicago, and moved West with his family in 1871 before Colo-ado was admitted to the Union. He is therefore the son of a pioneer of that state. He was educated at Swarthmore College, Pennsylvania, and graduated with the class of 1890. He is a member of the Phi Beta Kappa Society. Interested in Social Problems Governor Sweet ran for United States Senator on the Democrat ticket in 1926 and was defeated by the late Senator Waterman.

(Matt. 27:1-66) Golden Text—Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, des- pising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.—(Heb. 12:2.) Introduction The way of Salvation, or deliverance of mankind from perishing, as promised by God was through the suffering and death on the (cross) of Jesus. Let us look at His attitude in this great hour of suffering, it says He endured—that is He remained under its pain and shame, with patience, despising its consequences, forgetting all of its degradation for the joy that was set before Him of being the world's recreator, deliverer, and restorer. 1. Jesus Placed on the Cross. (Verses 33-36) We see that Jesus did not put Himself on the cross; in Heb. 10:5; but a body Thou hast prepared Me, and in the same book St. Paul says we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor; that He through the grace of God should taste death for every man. Again, St. Paul says of Jesus: Lo! in the volume of the book its written of Me I come to do Thy will O! God. They gave Him vinegar and gall to drink but He refused it knowing that this mixture would deaden pain. Also parted His garments among them, a type of Christ's justification that will be given to every man who asks for it. 2. Tragic Scenes Around the Cross (Verges 37-44) What a glorious prophecy was fulfilled around the cross that day, all of its doings were intended to reveal by signs the future spiritual work that would be accomplished by Jesus and the Holy Spirit during the Gospel age. (Ephe, 1:3-6) PLAN ENDOWMENT TO MEMORY OF LATE DR. BARRIER Friends and associates of the late Dr. Frederic P. Barrier are undertaking to establish a dental endowment at Howard University in honor of his memory. Dr. Barrier is remembered for a life of whole-hearted and self-sacrificing service in dentistry at his alma mater. The endowment is to be a fund to aid worthy students in the pursuit of dental education, and will serve to meet a long standing need in this phase of education at Howard. The Robert T. Freeman Dental Society, Inc., is initiating the movement. Following formal sanction and acceptance by the university, friends and alumni generally will be invited and urged to share in the undertaking.

Simmons and Josephine Simmons, of Louisville, Kentucky, and the beloved wife of Dr. Q. Bernard King, and the devoted mother of Josephine E. King, passed into the Great Beyond end Monday, May 28. after a lingering illness. Although she was born in Louisville she spent the greater part of her life as a resident of this city, where she received her education. She was well trained in music and was also before her marriage a most efficient milliner. Her charm of manner, her thoughtfulness of others, her many kind acts won for her a large circle of friends who remained loyal to her to the end. Never was there a more liberal person, with time and talent, for she gave freely of both to the choirs of St. Mary's and the Presbyterian Church. She was also a The giving of the vinegar and gall to kill pain was a type of the many things of the world that would be offered to humanity in order to appease their unhappiness, and give peace and consolation of mind. The parting of His garments. That by faith justification, or righteousness is offered to every man who ask for it. We notice that these were Gentiles that parted the rainments, and cast lots, giving us to understand that out from the Gentile nations would be chosen a church to take His name. (Act 15:13-15.) 3. Jesus Dies on the Cross in The sentence for disobedience (Sin) was death, that which God placed on Adam, and that punishment fell on the whole human race. Jesus took this disobedience and sentence upon Himself. It was necessary therefore that He should suffer all the elements such as sickness, pain, sorrow, disappointment, etc. that brings on death; that's why the Scripture says. He bore all of our sickness and pains in His body on the cross. Many were the insulting remarks made by those who stood around the cross. All these things were done by the emissaries of Satan to try His obedience to His Father. Had He failed, woe would have been our condition. Notice the two thieves, one asked Him to remember him when He came into His Kingdom. This kingdom was the future Paradise that would be established on earth when Jesus comes again in his second advent. When all the death will be resurrected and the living will be given their trial for everlasting life. (II. Tim. 4:1) Jesus obeyed His Father, gave up His human life that the world might be delivered from death, and be restored to life again. Jesus said: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. (St. John 10:10.)

Detroit Principal in Mixed High School Bans Discrimination DETROIT, Mich. (ANP)—E. M.

"Every student in the high school should be welcome to attend any affair bearing the school's name." Mr. Conkling told the class leaders. "We do not ask the white people to pay taxes and then exempt the colored people; nor do we tax the colored and exempt the white. All pay taxes alike and should receive the same considerations.

SHAW Three Shaw boys, James Blackshear, of Mrs. Heathcock's section; Robert Lee and Quinard Highlight, of Mrs. Maloney's section, won the educational trip to Indianapolis, Indiana. This trip was offered as an award by the Washington Daily News to the successful contestants in a carrier contest conducted by that paper. The winners left the city on May 28 and returned on May 31. On Tuesday, May 29, the pupils of Mrs. Pack's music classes, assisted by Sections 8B2 and 8B7 presented a play, "The Boy Who Hated Music." The following pupils participated: Augustus Brown, May Taylor, Craig Wesley, Sterling Thomas, John Devine. Section 8B7 contributed a number to the program and Section 8B2 several numbers. Nearly a truck load of flowers were brought to school by Shaw pupils for Memorial Day. These flowers were sent to the Arlington Cemetery and distributed among graves of soldiers. Miss A. S. Payne, a member of the faculty, sponsored this activity. A sound picture was presented by the teacher of electricity, W. E. Webb, and his pupils of the major class in electricity in the school auditorium on Monday. CARDOZO Congressman Oscar DePriest was the guest speaker at Cardozo High School on Monday, in the second annual drill assembly sponsored by the public speaking class, in charge of Mrs. L. L. J.

This is your favorite program over the news station WTO (Washington Tribune Office) bringing you the latest news in a hu.norous way. Have you ever noticed two young men dressed in brown suits at the different dances? If you have, these young men are none other than Joe Winchell (Joseph Overton) and the "Snooper" (Joe Beal). During the summer, watch for them at the Suburban Gardens, Francis Pool, Mott Pool, around U Street and other popular hangouts. In case the many readers of this column wish a favor, kindly address same to the "Live and Learn" editor, Washington Tribune Office, 920 U Street, Northwest, Washington, D.C. Also we cover dances, send us an invite. Well done. On Friday, the blue-clad cadets under the superior direction of its well trained officers, will compete for honors at the Griffith Stadium. For the first time this year, Cardozo appears as the "Dark Horse." Guns and sabers are being polished and suits weel groomed. Tomorrow, at 9 a.m., to the strains of the cadet band Company E of the 24th Regiment, Dunbar, under the captaincy of Justin Plummer will march on the field. At half hour intervals, other companies will march on the parade grounds. Music for this occasion will be furnished by the Ninth Brigade Band under the direction of Cadet Captain Aruna Tildon. Last year's winning company expects to place this year. Let's wish them luck! Now we will look in on Tech's art department. During the last two periods of the day, about 25 earnest students are busily engaged in painting flowers and land-capes. Under the superior direction of jolly B. C. Dodson, several students entered the Chinese Art Contest, and emerged winners. Miss Lillian Nickons and Miss Sarah Jones are among the best art students in the class. In front of the class room there reposes a large mirror. Just as the sixth period ends, several fair co-eds pose before it while applying their last minute make-up. Even an outsider visits to make-up. What a shop? We would like to know why William Miller is so interested in flowers? (No, not pansies). Is it true that Frank Holland is interested in Miss Willie Mae Williams? Joe Hager visited room 210 on Thursday. Wonder if it was florence? Picnics were in trim on the Thirtieth of May, Shelle Mitchell took old jibe joint Mazo Burrill of Virginia, who is a student at Cardozo. She is taking a post-graduate course. Austin Pearson is Thelma - Myles's flame now. Lois's boy friend, Leon Marshall and Miss Thomasine Bryant went on a picnic, also. My! My! A new romance is blooming, Charline Holmes and Sherman Harris are the prospect. He called: to take her out on Decoration Day in his special made 1934 Auburn, but she was not at home. The Gossip Fife featuring Adelaide Letcher, Ruth Myles, Effie Tolliver, Florence Bryant, and Lillian Nickens, broadcasted from amen's corner in Room 210 on Friday. Julius J. Cardozo must have scared Maurice Butler of Tech when he told him not to jibe his girl friend. I notice Maurice has his eyes on Mabel Mangum (you should have seen them holding hands in the art class). Now is that art! Notice Kenneth Ballard has left his old flames, Ruth Myles and Doris B. for a new spark, F. B. We see that M. M is interested in one of Tech's athletes, Joe Hall. Why did E. M. receive a letter from a girl discussing her boy friends, J. C. and B. Bernard B? I see Bernard Bell is interested in a girl up on the hill and not the you g lady on V Street. Why is Esther M. so interested in Jack C. and Bernard B.? It can't be love! Where does Pauline Simms get the idea John Young wants her? Why did Ella Mae E. get angry and go home when C. Procter left her to ask his cousin something? (Was it her modesty?) James W. and Neil R. are playing two in one (not shoe polish). It seems as though Nancy W. and Vivian C. are the latest while Juanita B. and Dorothy B. are still hanging on. We would like to know if M. J. cares anything for B. P. We notice a certain cadet captain, A. R. visits her locker quite often. Miss Marietta Scott strolls around Tech with an air of case. Ever hear of the gun rack lovers! A former graduate of Tech (Charles S. of Foggy bottom-leans on one while jibing a certain young coed. Nice, work, Charlie! Follow the crowds to the Masone Temple after the drill. An "Honor Dance" given in honor of the winning cadet company by those charming little hostesses, "The Little Women" will close the activities of the cadets. Red hot music in a cool atmosphere will give comfort to your weary bones. To make the day a success come out and swing-a-long with the bunch. "The Snooper" will be there of course and at the drill also. But Winchell will wear his uniform. Next week, a drill special will be featured in this column. To get the lowdown on what is happening consult this column. Well Adios. See you next week.

Hueston is commissioner of education, during the past year has supported eight students at Howard University, making allotments of $250 each, and one student toward whose education $100 has been contributed. Since the Elks' Scholarship Committee has been in operation, $10.544.24 has been contributed for support of seventeen students at Howard. Some of them have been supported during the four years of their college training. Some years ago, the Elks' organization, upon the recommendation of J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler, recommended the establishment of a scholarship committee, the purpose being to support students in various colleges and universities of the country. There are few colleges and universities for the education of colored youth which have not had upon their rolls students being supported by this organization since the recommendation was approved by the Elks' organization. The students in attendance at Howard University during the school year 1933-34 have been Lemuel S. Brown, Washington; James L. Kendricks, Sylvester, Ga.; Elvin M. Lee, Washington; Mildred Rowland, Atlanta, Ga.; Ahnastasia Scott, Chicago; Frederick Weaver, Washington; Lerov Weeks, Atlantic City; Eloise Wiggins, Hartselle, Ala.; and George R. Reed, Washington. Dr. W. Montague Cobb Attends N.Y. Meeting Dr. W. Montague Cobb, assistant professor of anatomy in the School of Medicine of Howard University, has recently returned from New York City where he attended the annual meeting of the American Association of Physical Anthropologists and the American Society of Mamologists. Before the former association Dr. Cobb presented a paper on "Wolf Snout" in Monov.clar Twins: a Case Report," illustrated with lantern slides. Dr. Cobb was recently initiated into the Western Reserve University Chapter of the Sigma Xi Fraternity, national honorary scientific organization. Armstrong Tech Student Plans to Form Orchestra Charles Raymond Williams son of James and Mary Williams, of 1757 Thirteenth Street, Northwest, and a senior at Armstrong Technical High School, is making preparations to form an orchestra this summer. Young Williams is at present a student pianist in the Boys' Club. Recently he received honorable mention in an essay contest of a local daily. His other activities include lieutenancy in the cadet corps and news editor of the Armstrong Torch, the school paper. ELEVEN SCOUTS TO STAGE FIELD DAY HERE DURING CONGRESS Exercises in Walker Stadium Feature of B.Y.P.U. Session June 22 The advanced guard of the National Sunday School and B.Y.P.U. Congress which meets in this city June 20-24, will arrive within a week or so, when John L. Webl. of Hot Springs, Ark. head of the Boy Scouts of the national convention, reaches the Capital to "look things over" and complete arrangements for encampment of boys from over the nation. According to present plans, scouts and cadets will engage in a big field day exercise and demonstration in Walker Stadium, immediately after the parade, June 22. Enthusiasm Runs High The enthusiastic way in which local folk have responded has, in a large measure, greatly complicated affairs of those working out the program of entertainment. Leaders are gratified to note that for nearly every activity, numbers have volunteered far in excess of requirements. This is true especially of the chorus. Soundin' a call for 500 voices for the concert to be held at the Washington Auditorium for this event would hold — choirs registered from the various churches to furnish perhaps a thousand singers. The process of reducing, therefore, has been a rather delicate task. Meeting in the Dunbar High School Auditorium last Thursday night for a rehearsal, the size of the chorus had more the appearance of an assembly of students. Many Homes Listed Chairman E. L. Harrison, of the committee on homes, reports such progress in the listing of homes that he is now able to "ease up a little." Plans for the parade, as outlined by Chairman William B. Marsh, are nearing completion. Registration of entries closed last Saturday, with the exception of out-of-town units. In cooperation with Col. W. A. Hamilton, Cautain Newman and Major Atkwood, technical experts, he is busily working out details of organization, and formation. Aside from the thousands of local people and nearly a score of floats, delegations from the states will combine to give one of the most spectacular events of its kind ever witnessed on The Avenue. To Print Souvenir Program The most elaborate souvenir program ever issued at any session of the Congress, containing things of interest regarding the National Capital and showing a number of leading Washington churches, is being printed by direction of the general committee on arrangements. Students Present Play Students of the C.W.A. School at Giddings presented the "Slabtown Convention," recently. The proceeds of the play which amount to $15 will be used to send a girl student to the Y.W.C.A. camp.

The teams will engage in a twin- bill, the first game scheduled to begin at prompt 1 o'clock. The play will take place on the Tigers’ diamond at ‘Twenty-sixth Street and Bennings Road, Northeast. The Tigers have been going through a rebuilding process fol- lowing the loss of several of their veteran stars, With the departure of Cleo Smith, Roy Powell, Ev Jeff- ries and Keystone Davis to join the Washington Black Sox, the signing of Mace Jefferson with the Harris- burg Giants ,and the transfer of Joe Wheeler and Ocie Lenoir to the Hillsdales, Manager Smith has ex- perienced much difficulty in decid- ing on just the combinaton to best fill the various gaps, ‘The return of the veteran Willie Collins, who for the past eight years has been playng profession- al ball in Pennsylvania, and the im- provement of Hank Williams as a converted infielder has served, how- ever to offset the handicap suffered by the wholesale docartures of the Tiger stars, Together with these additions, the Jungaleers have been materially strengthened by the ac- quisition of Diamond Phillips and Pine Armstrong, formerly of Pleas- ant Plains and the Washington Pi- rates, and the signing of Ed Lewis, one time Virginia White Sox star. The "Dales, now possessing a wealth of diamond material, expect to take both ends of the double at- traction.

Grounds, last Sunday afternoon, The west- enders fought courageously to over- haul the Trees but not until it was too late. Jumping into a three-run lead in the opening frame, the Georgetown lads apparently felt the game was inthe bag. Their play became list- less and they were unable to count again until the Southwesterners had chalked up seven rims to as- sume a four-run advantage. One run was tallied in each the fifth and the seventh, but the Trees re- taliated with another pair in their half of the eighth, ‘The Dorseymen obtained 15 hits off the offerings of Banks, Tree hurler, but the latter negotiated seven ' strike-outs between times. His defense was charged with three errors behind him, but none of them were sufficiently costly to net the Georgetowners the game.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JUNE 7, 1934 Looking ’em Over With the Tribune ‘The story of Charles F. West is a most interesting one. It is one that will make your pulses quicken and your heart flutter, and you will reach the end of it in a broad grin. It will find you patting your- self on the back that you are a Negro—that, you belong to the same race as that which claims parentage to the fellow who has just been named to coach the Howard University football team next year. West is not at all like many coaches I could name, who have never played a game of varsity sports in their lives. He is not a book-made theorist, “Pruner,” as he was known to his school-day associates, takes over a sport of which he has becn a part ever since he was able to say “da da.” In fact it is reported that the new Bison mentor once fell out of his cradle onto « loose pigskin as it skidded across the kitchen floor at his mamma’s and papa’s modest Washington, Pa., home. ‘At the age of eleven, the lad, who later was to become nationally famous as a gridiron star and pentathlon champion went home erying one evening because he wasn't able to gain more than 30 yards in any of his runs for the Colored Crackerjacks against the Washington Tigers. ‘But no solace was to be found there, ‘The only sympathy extended for his gridiron failings was a scolding for the absent button of his shirt (I mean waist) and the black eye that was not present when he left home earlier in the afternoon. E He made a name for himself at the Washington High School, where he starred at football and track from the time he landed in the little city institution until that memorable day when he was granted the sheet which, when unrolled, certified that he had completed the course of study prerequisite to entering college, Behnd him he left a niche that was never to be forgotten by followers of Pennsylvania scholastic football. Every darned sheet in the state, daily, weekly and monthly, had named the “Pruner” as the all-scholastic right-halfback in his last two years at Washington. Enrolling at Washington and Jefferson, West reported for football with the large number of rookies who went out for the 1920 President leven. In the first game on the W. and J. schedule, a white halfback became injured and was forced to leave the game as the first half drew to its close, “Pruner,” favored by the absence of a freshman rule (em- Ployed by some colleges to bar first year athletes from varsity sports) ‘went into the game at the beginning of the second half. om that day to his graduation in 1924, West was never moved from the Presi- dent line-up to make way for'a superior back. His experiences include numerous long runs in important games, The 95-yard jog against Syracuse in 1922, and his 40-yard trek in the last two minutes of the 1928 Carnegie Tech game are probably his most prized achievements. In this latter contest Washington and Jefferson stood on the verge of defeat at the hands of a rival over which they had been decided favorite. The score was 7-0 as West, who had been taken out of the game for a rest, returned. He snatched the ball out of the air, ran the distance to the coveted goal line, and then kicked the goal for the extra point. The Sunday morning dailies carried streamers which read something like this: “Carnegie Tech, 7; West 1”; “West and Carnegie Tech in Tie”; “Tech Ties West.” Probably the most outstanding experience in the career of the colored Washington and Jefferson football star was the incident in 1923 when Washington and Lee refused to go through with a football game scheduled against the Presidents on the grounds that the use of ‘West would be contrary to Southern traditions, Washington and Jefferson officials took the stand that “West js a deserving athlete, a true sport and as clean at heart as any caucasian,” and as a consequence the Virginia college team was compelled to return to their campus unplayed and unpaid. The Virginians in reporting the “seething mob which threatened them, insulted and sssaulted them in a manner that appeared they were thirsty for blood,” declared that “West, the innocent eause of the disturbance, was the only real sportsmanly character in Washington, Pennsylvania, on the night of the cancelled game.” Among his other athletic achievements was the “Pruner’s” winning of the pentathlon event in the University of Pennsylvania Relays of 1923 and 1924, The fact that he is the only Negro to play at the position of quarterback in a Tournament of Roses football game is also listed in the West history, Hampered by fraternty intereferences and a meddlesome adminis- tration Charlie West was unable to do much with the Howard team when he was head coach at the institution six years ago. He was dis- posed of after one year, without a fair trial. Now that I’ve gone through all this business about West and what he has and has noz done, let mie now say a word about the man himself. 1 first met Charlie West when he was a sophomore in medical school at Howard. 1 was in a game of basketball in the Y.M.C.A. gymnasium ‘one Saturday afternoon. The place was deserted except for the ragged, dirty kids playing the game and the one solitary spectator who stood on the far side of the gym at about the middle of the court. It was hot and smelly, and for that reason nobody chose to hang around. We pa Had trouble tinding someone to referee the game—no one liked e odor, I stopped on a “held ball” near this audience of one, position to jump for the ball. “Hi, Sam Lacy,” he said.’ I.

Breckenbury HAMPTON INST., Va.—As an expression of their admiration of a real star, the Hampton Pirates have chosen Edward T. Lipscombe as their track captain for next year. He is a sophomore. The new captain was born 21 years ago in the mountainous Asheville, N.C. As a grammar school boy he spent most of his time shooting marbles. If he liked running, it was not for the school; it was more from the truant officer. He went to Stephens Lee High School in his home town, but was not a member of the track team. In fact, he didn't really know he could run. Not untij his freshman year at Hampton did "Lanky" show that he could move faster than the average person. One night when a score of student were running from their dormitory to get their shares of the famous Hampton-baked beans, they were passed by what they thought was a hurricane. They later found that it was none other than Lipscime. Colored Pennsy Boxing Commissioner Praised PHILADELPHIA, Pa. (ANP)—Jerry Cohen, white in his column, "It's in the Bag," a feature in "Briefs," local weekly news magazine, has the following to say about Robert Nelson, only Negro Boxing Commissioner in the United States: "Philadelphians who follow the sporting events in this town that are lorded over by the Boxing Commission little realize what a jewel they have in the person of Robert Nelson, the local commissioner. "Promoters, athletes and fans receive the finest treatment at his hands. And the result of this is a better understanding of the body of men who have fallen into disreputed and ridicule so often by the way the body conducted itself prior to his tenure in office." Ten Receive Track Letters at Hampton Institute HAMPTON, Va.—Besides the new captain, Edward Lipscombe, nine men at Hampton were awarded their letters in track for this season. They are: Allen E. Weatherford, of Charlottesville, Va., McNewton Sullivan, of Simpsonville, S.C.; James H. Penn, of Winston-Salem, N.C.; LeRoy Paige of Pheobus, Va.; Charles A. Hill, of Fort Valley, Ga.; Albert J.

ARLINGTON, Va.—Coming from behind a six-run alien advantage, the Arlington Elks negotiated just enough runs in their half of the ninth inning to emerge the victors in their clash with the LeParadis A.C., of Alexandria, last Sunday afternoon. The score was 9-8. The Alexandrians went out ahead in the opening frame, pushing a tally across, and then returning in their half of the second to count four more. One more marker was added i. the third inning before the Elks were able to manipulate a single counter. But with the arrival of Johnnie Madison, Elk ace, on the mound, the story was changed. The locals put three runs over in their half of the fourth, four were added in the sixth, and the two deciding markers were netted in the final stanza.

Although the Shaw University representation at major track events was small, through the efforts of Jack Graves and Thomas Crumby, it did succeed in bringing back to North Carolina colleges four points from the Hampont meet and two from the C.I.A.A. meet at Howard.

MEAGRE REPAST FEATURES FETE TO CONGRESSMAN Leaders Praise DePriest for His Service to the Race A meagre fare, in view of the $2.50 per plate charge, was served at the testimonial banquet given in honor of Representative and Mrs. Oscar DePriest by the College Alumni Club, Saturday night, in the Masonic Temple, at which more than 300 persons were present. The menu, served by Shipley's, colored caterers of Baltimore, featured broiled duck as the entre and strawberry water-ice as dessert. No wines or liquors were included. Among those present were representatives from various educational institutions, administrators, and the principal business men and women of the community. Esther Popel Shaw, president of the College Alumnae Club, on behalf of the National Association of College Women, of which the club is an affiliate, as toastmistress, spoke of Mr. DePriest's activities for racial betterment. The political and social leadership of Congressman DePriest was discussed by William L. Houston, who characterized him as a "Big Brother." M. Albert Blanchet, Haitian Minister, compared the DePriest leadership with that of Frederick Douglass in the Reconstruction era. Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of schools, paid tribute to DePriest's devotion to the cause of the Negro. The effectiveness of the work of the Illinois Representative in organization and development of racial solidarity under the banner of the N.A.A.C.P., was stressed by Walter A. White, secretary of the organization. Dean Lucy Slowe, of Howard University, advised that his example of manhood be emulated. Other speakers included Miss Juanita C. Howard and Miss Muriel Milton, in charge of incidental ceremonies. Etta Moten, motion picture star, contributed several musical selections. The five-foot petrified snake, found in a coal mine, near Scranton, Pa., is believed to have been preserved since the carboniferous age. THE GRADUATE DAWN BOY STAR OF AMATEUR NITE Alexandria Youth Stops Show at Capitol Theatre Henry (Henritta) Roberts, well known dawn boy of Alexandria, took all honors in a show at the Capitol theatre last week. With one hour to go before show time, Heneritta wasn't to be found so the manager had to hunt for him. "After a wild goose chase Heneritta was finally located at his work place where he is hired as kitchen helper. Leaving the kitchen Henerita made a dash for the theatre and arrived just in time to go on. His first number was "I Want You, I Need You." This seemed to hit the spot with the curious audience that turned out to witness one of the members of the twilighters perform. With the house filled to capacity he returned with "Stardust." The rest of the performance was hooted and jeered. Some of the unfortunate talent was from one of the popular night clubs here. The audience stopped the show with a cry of "We want Henerita." The ushers tried to calm the noise but failed to do so. Henerita was so pleased with his success that he ran out from his dressing room and demanded the orchestra leader to play "The Carioca." Henerita gave the Alex-andrians some new lessons in snake hips and the shim-sham. During one period of the performance he offered a few feminine dances Roberts is well known in Washington as one of the most popular down boys within this vicinity. He is a native of Alexandria and lives on North Alfred Street. Warrenton, Va. Charles Leonard Madison who graduated from the George P.

It was not very well attended, but like everything new on U Street, the folks were a bit slow in coming, but at about nine things got started with a crowd of about one hundred and fifty, and the crowd increased to about two hundred, and it was an outstanding show. Everyone was very well satisfied. The main bout was won by Kid Norfolk. The Lincoln Athletic Club will stage these bouts every Saturday night at the Casino. Come out next Saturday night and see some nice clean fighting. M. M. Harris was the official announced and Dr. Stud Green was one of the judges, and the dear boy was a good one, too.

Went past the Colonnace Sunday night and saw Robert Barnes doing his fighting number, and he said it was a draw, but Chols knows better, because somebody stole his $60 watch that he paid five dollars for. And so, folks, Mrs. Edgar Bell cooked her first meal Sunday, and it was cooked like mother used to cook. I know, 'cause William Smith told me how much he ate and how he envies Hotsy. But really what I would like to know is how long will it be before Marjorie and Lester have their first meal? Please invite me, folks Went to Suburban Gardens, Saturday night to hear Hester and his Ten Little Pigs, and I heard them, and they were red hot. You see, folks, the crowd was a little small and the ten little pigs did not see any money in sight, so they were red hot. There was another big shot at the fight, but the dear boy got confused and did not know where the main entrance was, so he used the back door. So if Mr. Norman Walker will see me next Saturday afternoon I will gladly show him where it is. Saw Alonzo Collins down at the smokeshop, and he asked Earl how much was an ice cream sundae, and Earl told him it was fifteen cents, so Alonzo told him to give him five cents worth of ice cream and five cents worth of syrup.

SHOPPING Wherein the Tribune By SA ::-Howard-:- Review SHOPPING the SHOWS Wherein the Tribune Goes to the Theatre By SAM LACY There was too much brass in the Danny Small orchestra and too many feathers in the hands of Noma to make the patrons of the Howard want to get close to the stage, during the current week. But despite all this Manager Shep Allen saw capacity crowds come and go as the week's double attraction "Roccling in Rhythm", and "Twenty-million Sweethearts", on the screen, closed out the seven-day run. Nothing about the orchestra gave us reasons to do the old "writing home" act. We folks who attend the Howard have been somewhat spoiled by the host of first-raters we've had tossed up for praise or razz. And so must follow as the day the night thou canst not bear false witness for the rolling stone. But Noma (without the fans would have been better) was exceptionally good. Her soft, slow body movements, veiled by a couple of feathery fans, was well received by an audience which has received her well several times before, but which doesn't seem to tire. Her "Devil Dance" was an addition to her stage efforts. Florence Hill did well with her vocal scores. She was especially entertaining for the women folk. One lamentation on requitted love was concluded with the passage, "I'm so glad I found out in time, it doesn't pay a woman to love one man too much."

Sammy Gardner's jokes literally slap the censor in the face, but his parades for "Darkness on the Delta," "Did You Ever See a Dream Walking?" and "Talk of the Town" are originally good. "Twenty Million Sweethearts," with the Mills Brothers and in which Dick Powell plays the leading role, is greatly enhanced by Ginger Rogers and Pat O'Brien. In fact, the loquacious Mr. O'Brien does about as much as the hero toward making the picture. The story hinges about the efforts of a young singer to make good on the radio and if you have any desire to see the inside workings of the studios, this picture is your golden opportunity. "Twenty Million Sweethearts" is a pleasing story. The music has been surpassed many times, but still it is far from boring. Beginning Saturday, the Howard presents on the stage one of the finest and most entertaining shows of the season, New York's "Original Cotton Club Revue." It's a Harlem merry-go-round, a jamboree with Mills' Blue Rhythm Band, led by its dapper, smiling leader, Lucky Millinder, whose engaging personality will "send you. The sensational pianist, Edgar Hayes, will also do his number. Others in this cast of 60 are the "Four Flash Devils," Harriett Calloway, and Josie Oliver, the female snakehakes dancer.

Despite the fact there -:- Raphael -:- Joan Blondell surpasses all her previous characterizations in the role of "Vicki" in the picture, "Smarty," which completes a week's run at Manager Ed Harris's Raphael Theatre, tomorrow night. Your contemporary found "Smarty" one of the best potions for the "blues" (although he didn't have any) that he has witnessed in many days. I can't help saying here that I got two of the biggest thrills of my show-shopping experiences when Ralph Bellamy soaked Constance Cummings last week at the Booker T., and when Warren William let loose on Joan Blondell, here, this week. Miss Blondell plays the part of a wife who has a secret longing to be treated rough and immediately tires of men she can twist around her finger. It is not until her first husband has lost her that he realizes that what his wife needs is a thorough thrashing, and in the hilarious but violent climax he wins back her love by giving her a beating which thoroughly satisfies her cave woman's instincts. Never has the wise cracking Joan Blondell given such a lively and sparkling performance as she does as the flirtatious wife who goods her husbands into such a fury that they lose all control of their tempers and wind up by giving her the chastisement she deserves. The role is made to order for Miss Blondell, who excel' in fast talking, smart cracking repartee RAPHAEL 9th & O Sts. N. W. Dec. 1376 E. F.

A musical show and mystery story combined EARL CARROLL'S MURDER AT THE VANITIES —WITH— DUKE ELLINGTON And His Orchestra AND THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRLS IN THE WORLD and rough and tumble, catch as catch can action. Claire Dodd, the stately blonde, acts as an excellent foil to Miss Blondell as the habitual divorcee who takes her love affairs as casually as the purchase of a new hat. Preview "Merry Wives of Reno," the Warner Bros. picture which gives a humorous slant on the doings in the world's famous divorce colony, is the feature attraction that starts at the Raphael Theatre, Saturday. Margaret Lindsay, Glenda Farrell and Ruth Donnelly are the three merry wives who romp to Reno, Miss Lindsay and Miss Donnelly to seek divorces and Miss Farrell to find a new world of men to flirt with. Donald Woods, Guy Kibbee and Hugh Aierbert are the three husbands involved, the former two framing their wives into a compromising situation with the latter, Woods with the idea of effecting a reconciliation with his bride and Kibbee of reducing his wife's demands for alimony. The mix-ups which are involved in these marital scandals are said to be hilarious enough to turn a judge's hair grey and set a court room to roaring with laughter. In addition to its humorous side, the story carries a delightful romance, the two featured leads, Miss Lindsay and Woods playing their parts straight, one as the suspicious bride and the other as a wrongly accused husband who has been tangled in a net of compromising circumstances by the furtious Miss Farrell. Guy Kibbee, that funny old fat fellow, is in it, as has been said before. So you know we'll have some fun. He is the philandering husband whose wife rules him with a rolling pin, is more comical than ever while Ruth Donnelly, as his nagging wife, gives a splendid performance. Review Lionel Barrymore's portrayal of the father of a family, the members of which are all confronted with their own individual problems, is one of the outstanding features of "This Side of Heaven," just closing the week at the Booker T. By no means the best picture the write has seen based on this theme the ill theatre's offering is neither the worst. It proves to be pretty fair entertainment for theatre-goers who have not been worn out by the plot which forms the basis for the story. The mother of the family (yes Barrymore's wife, ya blake) aspires to become a novelist, which only adds to the many discomforts through which the father is carried during the play. The children have their puppy romances, incidentally objectionable to the ole man—as usual. And to toon the whole darned thing off, the elder Barrymore is faced with business difficulties which involve money shortages. Preview Take a kindly philosopher and place him at the head of his home, make of him a defiant champion of his race's cause, and moulded him into a smiling, courageous genius as he manipulates the stock market—and you have George Arliss, the master of masters, in "The House of Rothschild." Board a street car or get in your fliver and head to Fifteenth and U Streets. Alight and walk cast on U Street about 75 or 80 paces and you'll be at the Booker T Theatre, where Montrabbel Montgomery holds forth. Return his smiling greetings and go in and sit down. If you happen to reach there at the time when the five Jewish boys are in the middle of their struggle to rise to a position where they are no longer forced to watch the oppression of their race or if you are fortunate enough to get there at just about the time when the first stone is benign cas into a window in the Ghetto, it makes no dif- ference, you are in for a great picture. Hailed as the finest picture ever screened with Arliss as the lead character, "The House of Rothschild" stands for something to those of us who saw "Disraeli," and a number of others. While Mr. Arliss is not the whole picture, he is the greater part of it, for through him, as Nathan, the eldest Rothschild, the story exerts its major appeal. Supporting him are Robert Young, Boris Karloff, C. Aubrey Smith, Alan Mowbray, Holmes Herbert, Ivan Simpson, Arthur Byron, Loretta Young, Florence Arliss and Helen Westley. -:-Lincoln-:- Review Etta Moten, the pleasing young miss who has made such a hit on the stage, on the screen and on the air, should long remember Washington. Your writer says this primarily as a matter of news, but principally as a hint to the colored star of "Gold Diggers," and "Flying Down to Rio." He knows Washington. Miss Moten doesn't. If she did she most certainly would have reached up and around and given herself a right lusty pat on the back. For those readers who haven't quite gathered what I'm driving at, I will say this much, the Lincoln attraction played to capacity houses throughout the week, closing tonight. You see, Washington just doesn't care a whoop for too many appearances of anybody in the same season, and that goes to reverybody from Mickey Mouse to King Kong. That Miss Moten could return to the haunt of her triumph of little more than a couple of months ago, and go over big, is something that should be highly appreciated of a city that has long been recognized as the test of artists, shows and their merit. Appearing in person along with the screen productions in which she starred, Miss Moten offered several vocal scores. Among them were "Carioca," "My Forgotten Man," "Lil Black Boy," and "Don't Let Your Love Go Wrong." All were enthusiastically received. Preview Although there is nothing in the score which quite measures up to his own "Mood Indigo" or "Sophisticated Lady," Duke Ellington and his internationally famous band handles the music given him by Messrs. Arthur Johnston and Sam Coslow for "Murder at the Vanities" with the unique style of which he is master, at the Lincoln week. BROADWAY THEATRE 1515 Seventh Street. N.W. 1515 7th St., N.W.

Despite the fact there is something grotesque about the merging of tragedy and the gay goings-on of a musical comedy in which the girls are about as naked as "Noma," there surely must be something entertaining about it that a full season's run at New York's Amsterdam Theatre is listed among its conquests. In no other picture yet brought to U Street has a colored musical ensemble been given the freedom of play and prominence that is the inimitable Duke's in this picture. Jack Oakie and Vie McLaglen have their parts in the play, but aside from the Negro jazz artists, the cast is made up of an almost entirely new personnel. New names like Kitty Carlisle, Gertrude Michael, Dorothy Stickney, Toby Wing and Carl Brisson are brought to public attention by Carroll, discoverer of stars. :-Republic:- Preview An all-colored cast in the melodrama with "Harlem After Midnight," will be shown at the Republic Theatre on Sunday, Monday, JEWELL THEATRE 214 Four-and-a-Half St., S.W Metropolitan 9475 ARTHUR RANDALL, Manager SUNDAY-MONDAY JUNE 10-11 I'VE GOT YOUR NUMBER Joan Blondell, Pat O'Brien TUESDAY JUNE 12 ALL OF ME Geo.

Death to a 5-year-old child followed a wild ride through streets of the Southwest section. Little Margaret Mildred Diggins, 150 Francis Street, Southwest was the child whose life was snuffed out beneath the wheels of the truck operated by William Washington, 18, an escaped inmate of the National Training School for Boys. Washington was accompanied by George Taylor, 11, 66 N Street, Southeast, a junior high school student, and De Witt Haynie, 19, 1305 First Street, Southeast. Had Been Swimming Washington according to police, had stolen a light motor truck belonging to the Smith Brothers, trucking farmers, of Galesville, Md. The theft, police held, took place after he and his two companions had finished swimming off "the point," at the foot of O Street, Southwest, Friday evening. The boys rode about Southwest streets, at some times, according to the youths' own statement, making a speed of 40 miles per hour. After several trips through Francis Street, the last and fatal one was made shortly after 8 o'clock. The little Diggins girl, playing in front of her home, went into the street at just the moment the truck is said to have come storming down the thoroughfare. She was struck by the car's front fender and knocked onto the curbing several feet away from the mishap. Witnesses testified the car did not stop. The child was rushed to Providence Hospital where she was pronounced dead by Dr. Edward McLaurin upon arrival. Washington was ordered held for the action of the grand jury o a charge of manslaughter. His two friends who were absorbed of connection with the child's death, were arrested and held on charges of joy riding.

MAN STUMBLES TO DEATH INTO PATH OF 2 CARS Two Women, Relatives, Freed of Blame for Fatality Death through an accident was the finale written by a coroner's jury, last week following its investigation of the tragic end of James Rogers, 33, of 1417 Third Street, Northwest, who was fatally injured shortly after midnight, Sunday, when knocked down by one machine and run over by another. The driver of the machine which first struck Rogers was operated by the comely Mrs. Edna Smoot, 35, of 302 I Street, Northwest, while the other was driven by her graceful niece, Miss Mamie E. deBruhl, 22, of 255 Massachusetts Avenue, Northwest. The verdict of the jury released them from custody, having been under bail since the accident. Stumbles to. Death. The accident occurred on New Jersey Avenue between N and O Streets. According to the testimony presented the jurors, in crossing the enclosed grassy triangle near the scene Rogers stumbled as he hopped over a chain. He failed to gain his balance, it was stated, and Rogers stunbed into the path of the machine driven by Mrs. Smoot. The auto operated by her niece was directly in the rear of the first car and ran over the stricken man also. Sergeant C. A. Lettis, of the Second Precinct, testified that he was returning to the station house from the scene of a crime when they chanced to pass the accident directly after it occurred. The wounded man was placed in the patrol and hurried to Freedmen's Hospital. Dr. M. M. Christian, of Freedmen's staff, pronounced Rogers dead upon arrival. The autopsy by Dr. C. J. Murphy showed that the dead man had numerous fractured ribs on both sides, a laceration in the scalp through which the brain tissue protruded. The broken ribs were found to have penetrated both lungs and the heart. Testimony that Rogers had stumbled into the path of the autos were given by Dorothy Curtis, a step-daughter, and Pearl Lloyd, of 1529 Fourth Street, Northwest, who were standing in front of a gasoline station near the scene. Both stated that Rogers tripped over the chain and crossed the walk into the street without being able to regain his balance. Warned of their constitutional rights by Dr. A. M. MacDonald, jurors, both women insisted on panking statements before the jury. Dabbing frequently, at her moist eyes, Mrs. Smoot said she did not see the man and at first thought that she had struck a dog. However, Mrs. Smoot averred the machine was immediately stopped and she rushed back to find out what had been struck. **Brakes Found Good** Miss deBruhl declared that she felt the shock as the auto ran over Roger's body, but thought that she had struck a depression in the street. When she noticed that her aunt had stopped, Miss deBruhl said she also stopped to investigate the trouble. The patrol appeared just at this time and halted at the scene. A subsequent examination of the brakes of the two machines found them to be in better condition than is required by law, the testimony developed. Detective Sergeant William J. Liverman investigated the fatality for the homicide squad.

HOUSE WAITERS ENGAGE IN BOUT Pummeling each other during a fracas at the House Restaurant, Friday, two waiters broke three glasses, a finger bowl, a bottle of meat sauce, and a bottle of chili. The fight which enlivened the lull between the breakfast and lunch hours, was between Walter Roberts, head waiter, and R. Lawson, an assistant. It began when Roberts told Lawson he would not be needed for the day. The latter insisted on immediate payment of what was due him at the rate of $10 a week. The battle ensued. Capitol police separated the combatants after they had done about $1.50 damage. Neither was arrested. 74 Births, 69 Deaths Reported Among Colored Thirteen of the 69 deaths among the colored population of the District during the week ending on May 26 were attributed to organic heart disease, according to the weekly statistical statement just issued by Dr. William C. Fowler, District health officer. Tuberculosis was the disease causing the second highest number of deaths, 10; nephritis was fatal to 6; apoplexy 5; pneumonia and malignant growths, 3 each. There were 74 births reported during the same period. Deaths among the white population totaled 105; births, 136. Thirty-four children of the Church of Incarnation, Deanwood, recently made their first communion. They were attended by four colored sisters of Baltimore. Father Bumbleton is pastor of the church. Kentucky Senate Over Ant Friends of Measure Seek Ag Allow Vote to Be Taken Wagner Confer with There is still some hope for a vote on the Costigan-Wagner anti-lynching bill at this session. If negotiations now in progress are successful, debate will be limited and a vote taken prior to adjournment. Senators Costigan and Wagner conferred with President Roosevelt but no word on the anti-lynching measure was given out although it is known they discussed it thoroughly with the Chief Executive. They were accompanied to the White House by Walter White, N.A.A.C.P. secretary, but Mr. White did not share in their conference with the President. It is expected that a conference will be held among key senators which will seek an agreement to limit debate on the bill to two hours and allow a vote to be taken. Senator Joseph Robinson of Arkansas, leader of the senate, is the key man in these negotiations. If he can be persuaded, all well and good; if not, then there is little chance of any action on the bill. Two Youths Held for $50 Damage to House Caught with lead pipes in their possession said to have been stolen from a house in the 800 block of E Street, Southwest, Joseph Hall, 19, and Edward Holland, 19, both of 649 N Street, Northwest, were held at the Fourth Precinct, last week. James Brown of 615 Fourth Street, Southwest, owner of the house, estimated that approximately $50 damage had been done to the plumbing fixtures of the house. FIGHT LOOMS AT NASHVILLE WHEN MEDICS CONVENE Older Officers Slated to be Ousted by Younger Group (By C. A. Lamon for ANP) PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—Rumor has it when the doctors, dentists and pharmacists meet in Nashville, Tenn., August 13-18, there will be not only one of the greatest meetings the National Medical Association has ever held, but that much constructive legislation looking toward strengthening the body and making it more representative of the local and state societies will occur. Inner circles in the National Medical Association have it that several of the general officers are to be ousted from office by the rebellious young medics, who are determined to have a more representative, influential association. Among those slated to be defeated in case they come up for re-election are C. A. Lanon, M.D., general secretary; J. A. Kenney, M.D., editor of the Journal; J. R. Levy, M. D., treasurer; G. W. Bowle, chairman of the executive board and var. executive board members who in the past controlled and influenced the N.M.A. policies. The younger rebellious medics are determined that another Negro Veteran's Hospital for ex-Negro disabled soldiers be established since Congress has already appropriated the money and the only questions to be settled are where a location can be found that is acceptable and the quieting or silencing of organized lay forces who want to deprive the Negro group of another such hospital, on the basis that such a move represents segregation. Downie Athlete Employed By Multi-Millionaire DOWINGTOWN, Pa.—Archie B. Rowley, of Norrstown, who has just completed a course in Automechanics at Downingtown Industrial School will not receive his certificate from the hands of Hon. J. C. Asbury, secretary of the board of trustees, at the school's commencement exercises on June 7. Instead it will be mailed to him at Montreal, Canada. He left school on May 28 to drive a car to the summer home of Walter Hershey, retired millionaire of Bryn Mawr, Pa. who has employed him as his chauffeur and butler. Young Rowley played guard on the varsity football team for four seasons despite the fact that he weighed only 140 pounds. CHARGED AS RECKLESS Edward S. Coleman, 50, of 1627 Seventh Street, Northwest, was charged with necklace driving at the Third Precinct, one day last week, after his auto had collided with another driven by Miss Gertrude Jenkins, white, secretary to Justice Harlen F. Stone. The accident occurred at the south end of the Million Dollar bridge. Coleman was treated for cuts and bruises at Emergency Hospital. "Over His Dead Body" Among the remarks going the rounds is one said to have been made by Senator Hubert D. Stephens of Mississippi to the effect that the anti-lynching bill would be passed only "over my dead body." Senator Walter George of Georgia is also known as an open foe of the bill, but he is not as violent as Senator Stephens. Senator Robinson, senate leader, is cool, but not openly hostile. Friends of the bill still insist that if it is brought up it will pass. It is because the foes of the bill know this that they are determined to keep it from even coming to a vote. Meanwhile it is still most necessary, Secretary White declared, for all organizations and individuals who want this bill passed, to keep writing or telegraphing President Roosevelt urging him to have the bill brought up for a vote at this session. Victim of Gang Row Treated at Gallinger Set upon and beaten by several men, John Johnson, 37, of 993 Cullinane Court, Southwest, was treated at Gallinger Hospital, last week, for injuries of the head. John Clark, of the 400 block of Cullinane Court, was arrested by Officers Creel and Murray, of the Fourth Precinct, and detained pending Johnson's outcome.

For sale at all news stands, 6 cents per copy. Advertising rates furnished on request THURSDAY, JUNE 7, 1934 Graft Among Policemen A witness recently volunteered the information before a Judiciary Subcommittee of the House District Committee that the high cost of police protection was driving many numbers bankers to bankruptcy. A few weeks ago a policeman was tried for accepting a $10 bribe. The officer was freed on the latter charge when testimony was produced that the "bribe" was a gift for cigars. Of course it is quite all right for policemen to accept money for cigars and little gifts of $5 bills for candy and nicknacks, when one is arrested. The poor numbers operator was not given much consideration by the members of the committee investigating gambling in the District so he evidently had to go on his way and try to do business with whoever demanded the greater part of his earnings. Officials were inclined to wink at the testimony of the numbers business man and nothing has been done to investigate the deplorable racket here. Instead of suppressing crime and other many forms of vice, police devote their time to harassing motorists who happen to park in one of the many so-called restricted zones or car owners who happen to have one headlight burning. It is certainly high time for policemen to devote more time to stopping crime instead of worrying motorists for trivial traffic violations and collecting graft from gambling houses and numbers bankers. Go South, Young Man Dr. Mordecai Johnson in his baccalaureate sermon last Sunday advised graduates to go south where the majority of Negroes live and there administer to the needs of members of their race. He also pointed out conditions in many of the larger cities where hundreds of professional men are almost on the verge of starvation due to the over-supply. Here in Washington are hundreds of men and women holding various degrees, who are unable to practice their professions. The various government bureaus are cluttered with doctors, lawyers and teachers, while in many southern states there are whole counties without a single physician or dentist. Some of the graduates will need the advice of Dr. Johnson while others will remain in the city and add to the already accute problem here of too many professional men and women who hold jobs that non-professional people should have. Needed, a Solomon Dr. Clark Foreman, white, special advisor on Negro affairs in the Department of Interior is put in a rather embarrassing position in the recent controversy which is raging about his ears in regards to the policy of homesteads in his home state, Georgia. The unusual part of the whole affair is that a white fellow citizen of Georgia and friend of Dr. Foreman advocates non-segregated homesteads for the state. On the other hand a colored president of a state-owned college comes out for segregated sites. Most of the colored citizens in this section of the country and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People take the stand that segregation should not be tolerated while most white southerners present the opposite view. The whole matter, it seems, Is left to Dr. Foreman as his recommendation will no doubt decide the policy to be followed in other homestead projects. Those against segregation point out that the government should never set the example in jim crow projects as such a move would mean that the country puts approval on separation of the races. On the other hand the colored college president says he has lived in Georgia all of his life and knows from personal experience that the races will not get along together. It is pointed out that southern white men like Negroes as individuals, but have no use for them as a race, while northernmen despise them as individuals, and sing the praise of the group at a whole. However segregation is segregation regardless of the benefits derived from an arrangement. On the Kelly Miller Says The Federal Government Does Not Sanction Race Discrimination If the N.R.A. should sanction differentiated codes for the two races under the N.R.A., it would be the only instance of record where the Federal Government has openly written race discrimination in law. The Fourteenth Amendment forbids any state from denying any citizen equal protection of the law. The spirit and purpose of this provision would effectively prevent any semblance of race discrimination by the states and by logical inference, would forbid the Federal Government from doing that which it forbids the states to do. Few states have the affronty to legalize race discrimination, although all of the Southern states have set up legal distinction on account of race. Separate schools, separate cars, the marriage racial bar, all operate on the basis of race distinction, but presumably, they avoid race discrimination, at least on the face of the law. "Separate, but equal accommodations" is the plan on which they profess to operate. But actual experience shows that in every instance, distinction connoted discrimination. Where this discrimination is obvious, the Negro has at least a Chinaman's chance before the courts. The Supreme Court has decided that a state may operate separate cars for the races; but no state can, with legal impunity, deny Pullman Car accommodation to Negroes as long as whites are afforded such accommodation. NEGROES CAN DEMAND EQUAL FACILITIES A city which establishes a high school for the whites can be compelled by law to establish a high school for Negroes. If a state supports a medical or a law school for whites, the Negroes, if they know their rights and have the courage to maintain them, may compel that state to furnish like professional training for Negroes also. Missouri and West Virginia strive to meet his legal requirement for providing for such training for colored candidates in professional schools in more liberal states. Recently the N.A.A.C.P. has initiated legal action looking towards some such provision for the professional training of colored youth in North Carolina. Large possibilities await the intelligent and possible insistence on part of the Negro to abolish or at least to minimize race discrimination even where it has no hope of affecting race distinction. The Federal Government, from the beginning, has been wary of writing race distinction or race discrimination either in constitutional or statutory law. The Constitution artistically side steps the issue of cunningly devised phraseology. Discrimination in representative capacity is made, not on the basis of race but against "other persons," albeit the red man is flatly discriminated against on the score of Indians not taxed. GOVEKNMENT HAS SEGREGATED INSTITUTIONS Although the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments aimed and hoped to abolish all race distinction and race discrimination, yet the evil practice has steadily and stealthily made its way into federal law, either by positive enactment or avowed sanction. The Supreme Court had decided, Chief Justice Taft delivering the decision, that the right of the states to operate separate schools and cars for the two races is not to be questioned. The Federal Government established colored troops during the Civil War. White and colored schools are maintained in the District of Columbia. This is perhaps, the classic instance where the Federal Government sets up and operates on the basis of race discrimination. The federal support of Howard University points in the same direction. While the Supreme Court did not avowedly sanction, yet it effectively winked at racial segregative covenants in the case brought before it from the District of Columbia. The final outcome of the racial issue in case of the House Restaurant, so valiantly fought to its present issue by Congressman DePriest, is awaited with keen and serious anxiety. RACE DISTINCTION VS. DISCRIMINATION Although committed 'in sundry and various ways of race distinction, the Federal Government is nowhere committed to race discrimination. If separate schools are to be provided for the two races in the District of Columbia, the Government insists that the provisions for the two must be equal. On more than one occasion I have gone before committees of Congress in this behalf and have always found a sympathetic, and never a rebuff from any direction. Race statesmanship should see to it that even race distinction should be kept to the absolute minimum in federal law if it cannot be kept out altogether, and that race discrimination should never be allowed to enter. The Negro suffers previously from various forms of discrimination at the hands of the Federal Government, but by sinister practice rather than by positive law. The Negro applicant can hardly enter the Civil Service, but not on account of legal exclusion, but rather through sinister devices and tricky contrivances. The Negro may legally enter West Point and Annapolis, though few may travel through the thorny road. If the N.R.A. should sanction differentiated codes for the two races under the N.R.A., it would be the only instance of record where the Federal Government has openly written race discrimination in law. It is ever a sage and farseeing philosophy which insists in keeping the door of hope open though few there be who enter in threat. other hand Dr. Foreman will need a Solomon to solve his problem and we hope he will find some sort of an arrangement that will benefit all and displease none.

I consider The Tribune the best paper published. Reader Says That Colored Vote Can Decide an Election in a Dozen States. To the Editor: Among the great unanswerable questions of the season and one that is giving the leaders of the major political parties much concern is "how will the colored voter cast his vote in the coming elections?" "How old is Ann?" or "How high is up" would be easy in comparison because of the effect of this question upon the life of the parties concerned. This importance is enhanced by the knowledge that the colored voters, if properly managed, could decide an election in at least a dozen doubtful states. Since their enfranchisement, the colored voters have been considered members of the Republican party, conceded as such by the Democrats, and accepted as such without much ado by the Republicans. But to the utter surprise of both parties, a survey has shown that over 1,500,000 of these votes went to the Democrats in the last general election. These came to the Democrats without invitation and quite naturally the Democrats desire to retain them, but without public announcement. The Republicans, realizing too late that their loss was due to negligence and overconfidence, besides their many other worries are racking their brains for a plan to lure them back into the fold without wounding their own political pride. And so, the battle, as yet behind the scene, goes merrily on with the colored votes as the prize. The Democrats have recently made several well-timed appointments that will boost their stock in the coveted prize, and the Republicans, terribly handicapped, being the "outs," are, at present quietly working under cover but are expected soon to come into the opening with something to "bring the bacon home." It can be truthfully said, however, to the credit of the present day colored voter, that the basis of his party affiliation is neither sentiment, emotion nor inheritance, but rather sound reasoning on issues and men as they affect the race group as a whole. The party, therefore, setting forth the best offer for a new emancipation of the race can expect the unstinted support of the race group in future campaigns. Reports are beginning to come in, that in many communities, the Negro voters have divorced themselves from both of the major parties, organizing as independents, and holding out for the best offer, not of money, but of manhood rights and opportunities in American life. From our ringside seat, here in the nation's capital, the writer, watching the trend of events in this battle of the era, the results of which will mean so much in our life politic, will from time to time release observation to the Negro press. H. J. FORD. 1700 Fifteenth St., N.W. What Other Papers Say "PATIENCE IN PERPETUITY" (From the Norfolk Journal and Guide.) Many people continue to urge the underprivileged to be "patient," on the theory perhaps, that "the meek shall inherit the earth," or that passivity is the best policy for minorities. They mean that they should keep turning the other cheek, and that in some future day, which now seems to be as elusively around the corner as real prosperity, the long-suffering victims will get what is justly theirs. Whenever a Negro expresses impatience with this philosophy of patience, he is frowned upon in some quarters as a bad influence, if he is not called an outright radical, which despite changing conditions is still a term of opproprium. Well, let a Southern white man of courage, accomplishment, and prestige speak: "Although I urge you to continue to be patient during this profound social revolution, I do not believe in nor advocate patience in perpetuity. Indeed, it may be that you have been too patient, for the very connotation of the word suggests that one person suffers unjustly at the hands of another person." The man speaking is Dr. Douglass S. Freeman, editor of the Richmond News-Leader and a recent appointee to the faculty of the school of journalism at Columbia University. He made those remarks after delivering one of the frankest appraisals ever made of the New Deal's effect on the Negro, the harmful effect being an outgrowth in his opinion of the South's refusal to allow the Negro to participate in the general raising of the levels of pay and consequently of the improved standards of living. His address was made at the commencement exercises of Piedmont Sanatorium Nurse Training School. We agree with Dr. Freeman that patience is submission to unjust treatment; for who would have to be patient with just treatment? And we, too, have long felt that "patience in perpetuity" is a philosophy of nonsense.

Negro leaders in fraternal organizations in general and in Federal employee organizations in particular, all seem to lack the second qualification listed above. That is my reaction to date. Our organization leaders seem unable to rise above personal differences. The result is that persons in the organization whose personal ambitions rise above that of the well being of the organization continually keep smouldering fires burning.

Colored Federal Employees who are "labor minded" and who realize the value of membership in some Federal employee organization number hardly more than 250 (in Washington) and the men who are qualified as leaders for this group number not more than five. Yet there are five recognized locals and lodges affiliated with the two larger parent groups the A.F.G.E. and the N.F.F.E.

I can picture the radical politician, who wishes to become a historical figure and long live in the hearts of his countrymen, secretly nursing a desire for a power that would induce patriots to desert the rank and file of the conservatives, overthrow the present form of government and set up a government to his own liking—the Utopia of his dreams. But he soon realizes the absurdity of even tolerating such a desire. He immediately comes to his senses and finds that he possesses no magic wand and that he is just one man among many with no special favors of the gods resting upon his shoulders. The preacher taxes his vocal chords for all he is worth, day after day, in an attempt to change a sinful world into a holy one. He finds that all men do not welcome the words of truth. Some do not take God seriously. They will not heed His Word. They choose to curse Him and call the preacher a fool for believing what they term as "hooey." The minister secretly wishes that it were possible for him to make all men believe what he preaches about the Saviour. If it were in his power, I think, he would make THE EDITOR APOLIGIZES * * * * Alexander Hamilton, first secretary of the United States Treasury, though born at Nevis, in the West Indies, spent his youth and young manhood in St. Croix, Virgin Islands, where his desk and stool are still in use in the dingy store in which he formulated the dreams that were to come true in the United States.

Also San, a town of 2,000 populaton in Japan, actually lies in a volcanic crater with fire-blackened walls rising 800 feet. all men love one another. But, like the radical politician, he sees it as a hopeless case. Now, the next "wisher" for magic power to fix things his way is the columnist (I say this with apologies to all the columnists that read this). Although the community thinks very little about this third fixer, he has the heavens as well as the whole world at heart. He, like the knight of old, goes to battle with his typewriter to (1) uphold the morals of the people; (2) to give whatever information he can on various subjects to his readers; (3) to defend the rights of citizens; (4) to promote harmony in the community; and (5) to safeguard the health of the At this moment I would like to have the power to carry out number five to perfection. Not long ago we were all amazed by the report that Washington ranked fourth in the white plague disease. A map was published with the report. This map pointed out that the disease was found more among the Negroes of Washington than the whites. Why was this? Several reasons, but unsanitary conditions headed the list. For some years this paper has pointed out, in its editorial columns the dire need of a comfort station at Tenth and U Streets. With such a necessary station in operation, the alleys of U Street could then give forth a much cleaner smell than they now do. The health of the citizens are at stake. It is the duty of our civic organizations to see that the public gets that station If it were in my power to make this building become a reality, I would quickly and gladly do so, but I am like the politician and the preacher—I realize that I am only a citizen in the community, with no gift from the gods. I can but suggest the need. Federal Notes ENCE J. W. HAYES with extraordinary determination. Organizations in general and in Federal air, all seem to lack the second qualification to date.

SPECIAL FEATURES On the Air The first artists of color to reach the airways via the World's Fair at Chicago have set a rapid tempo for others to follow. Almost unheralded, the quartet from the Florida Agricultural and Mechanical College of Tallahassee, Florida, came to sing as a part of the Florida State exhibit. Invited to sing over KYW, the brand of harmony which these youngsters produced, the freshness of their voices and the delightful program they rendered, impressed the listeners of that station so that commendation flowed in ance ment at the Mayfair will turn all right for the management.

Bill "Bojangles" Robinson the Academy in New York and Calloway heading a bill suppor The result is that they were immediately signed for three broadcasts per week from the administration building radio station at the Fair grounds. The director of the Florida exhibit renamed the group the Florida Harmony Four, which I regret to note, deprives the school of the publicity which it rightly deserves. In the quartet are Albert Crossby, tenor, James Walker, baritone, Nathaniel Jackson, tenor, and Roland Rogers, bass. Prof. Rudolph Von Charton of the faculty of Florida A. and M., is in charge of the group. They expect to remain the entire period of the Fair. Mills Brothers are the rage of London, England, reports across the waves points out. Masters of their style of singing, the quartet is making a twice nightly appearance at the Mayfair for late dinner and after theatre supper guests and doubling at the Palladium theatre where they also do a twice nightly show. The boys appear in cream colored Eton jackets and black trousers. Critics on the other side of the pond say they make a most excellent impression and give every indication that their month's engage- Says Teacher Struck Girl (Continued from page 1 ) call concerned eight citizens of Petersburg who were to act as an arbitration committee. This committee consisted of Rev. E. E. Miller, Dr. J. B. Darden, Rev. Thomas M. Crowder Dr. O. R. Johnson, Dr. W. M. Logan, Rev. S. A. Brown, Wm. H. Johnson and A. B. Mackey. "After some discussion while all three committees were present and no satisfactory decision was reached, the executive committee withdrew and left the arbitration committee to try and settle this matter. Reached Agreement "After much filibustering by Rev. S. A. Brown and Wm. H. Johnson the rest of the committee drew the meeting to a close with the following result: If the strike was called off the arbitration committee would see that justice was done regarding platform and grievances of the student body. The arbitration committee with the sanction of the executive. committee signed the following pledge: (1). There shall be absolute immunity guaranteed to the student leaders of the strike. (2). That no student during the strike be charged with absences from classes, nor be refused admittance next year or any ensuing year, on account of this strike. (3) That no seniors who are qualified to date be refused graduation. This was signed by all members of the Arbitration Committee and by President John M. Gandy at 7:30 the next morning. Gandy Broke Pledge "The strike was called off until 12:30 p.m. Saturday so that the executive and arbitration committees could act on the student platform and grievances; at which time decision was to be rendered. In the meantime President Gandy broke this pledge by ordering the parents of Carter Johnson to take him home and advised the father of Robert Johnson to take him home. Peeved by the break of promise the student body voted that the strike be resumed. It was, and classes were discontinued at 9 o'clock Friday morning. "The Arbritation Committee again met the Student Committee at about 1:00 o'clock and the decisions of the Executive Committee in regard to the platform was given. Most of the decisions were favorable but the Executive Council refused to grant immunity to students and student leaders. Fully aware of the weakness of the decision of the Executive Council and of the fact that no student was guaranteed protection, it was resolved that the strike continue. Cops Break Up Meeting "The Student Body had another meeting at 2:00 p.m. Friday, May 25. In this meeting at 3:10 p.m. the following letter was received from the Executive Council: The Executive Council advises me to inform you that you must submit your final statement regarding its reaction to your platform, which is --- e Air ment at the Mayfair will turn out all right for the management.

"About this time Professor Rawley came in to try to make a compromise with the students and to end the strike. Rapid progress was being made when the meeting was broken up by cops who seized a student, namely, Edgar Van Blake, who was not a leader, the student body followed them to the president's office. Here both leaders, non-leaders and non-participants were pointed out by the following faculty members: Mr. Settle, of Idaho; Mr. Frank M. Snowden Jr., of Boston, Mass.; Mr. James D. Barnes, of Oberlin, Ohio. Furthermore, members of the faculty stood on the porch, outside of the president's office and laughed at the way the girls were being handled by the officers. No Violence "Among the so-called violence committed by the Student Body were: (1). The careful removal of a window screen, in Colson Hall and replacing of it after the class had been dismissed. (2). The removal of the hands of a member of the faculty from a student himself, by a mere shrig of his shoulders. "On the other hand there were violence committed by members of the administration namely: (1). The drawing of a gun by one, Mr. Charles Wartman, Sr. a member of the faculty and his accessory, Mr. Campbell, an employee of the institution. The gun was held on three students without justification. (2). The striking of an innocent girl by a Mr. L. C. Pinn also an employee of the institution. The weapon used here was a stool. (3). The calling in of the State and County police by the administration to subdue violence when there was no violence. Satisfied With Stand "May we, state that the administration demanded and sanctioned the rough handling of student girls by policemen. The fact that the administration sanctioned this move accounts for the voluntary departure of many students and the determination of many remaining students to make plans to enter other schools, that the remaining students have returned to classes is attributed to the fact, that many were financially unable to leave. "As can be plainly seen by the analysis of the above facts; we feel that we are quite justified in our stand in this movement." Japanese Society Requests Information on N.A.A.C.P.

Windsor, of Payville, Louisiana, received special commendation from President Woodrow Wilson. The letter reads: "My Dear Rev. Windsor: I am writing to say with what interest and admiration I have learned of the fact that twelve of your sons are in the service of our country and the thirteenth impatiently waiting to follow them. This is a splendid record, and I congratulate you from the bottom of my heart. The colored troops have proved themselves fine soldiers. Correctly and sincerely yours, WOODROW WILSON." The image shows two boats on a calm river, with a forested shoreline in the background. The boats appear to be small, possibly rowing vessels, and are positioned side by side. The water is relatively still, suggesting a calm river environment. HEN, on the sixth of April, 1917, the United States declared itself at war with the Central Powers of Europe, a call went out at once for new recruits to bring the army up to fighting strength. Six units of black regulars were already at war strength, the Ninth and Tenth Cavaliers, the 24th and 25th Infantry, the Eighth Illinois and the 15th New York—and in addition guard regiments representing New York, Chicago, Washington, Baltimore, and the state of Ohio—were prepared to go to battle at a moment's notice. The response was instantaneous. Everywhere the Negro dropped the mattock, left the plowshare, passionately saluted Old Glory, and answered "Hete I am!" Negro men and boys swarmed from every corner to enlist. It was the first real opportunity they had to prove their loyalty since the days of the Civil War, North, South, East and West—every town contributed its quota. The honesty of the black man's purpose in thus sacrificing his own personal gain to the welfare of his country was discredited. The Anglo-Saxon could not conceive any more than could the German why a man downrodden as the Negro should rush to arms, save as a baser means of eking out a livelihood better than that in his civilian state. The Anglo-Saxon little dreamed that the Negro approach, ed war not only to uphold his cherished tradition, but also with definite ideas of honor, recognition, and equality as its outcome. As the pride in our Negro soldier grew in this country, a very violent dislike for him spread all along the German front. In more than one place the color line and the front line of battle merged into one—to the rage and dismay of the Hun. The Teuton prejudice against color might have been all the more intense if Germany could have known what the American boys were doing in every department of war work. The Germans felt the force of Negro valor as exemplified by Henry Johnson with his holo knife, and Needham Roberts with his stack of bombs; but there was more behind the scenes. Of the Negro stevedores, George Freeman, the Negro contractor who took 1,500 of them to France, said: "They were the finest workers you ever saw. One Negro can do four times as much work as any other man and have fun doing it. The French stevedores stood by and looked on with amazement at my hustling gangs. The way they handled those 100-pound crates made the Frenchmen's eyes bulge." In the shipbuilding yards the whirlwind methods of the black men caused a sensation both in this country and in England. On the Western Front 700 volunteer Negro women worked side by side with whites in huts and canteens of the Y.M.C.A. All over the counting $12,000,000 Negro Americans loyalty backed the government with their hard-earned money. Out of their wages and savings they paid $20,000,000 for the four issues of Liberty Loan Bonds. They gave $1,500,000 to the first Red Cross drive and $2,500,000 to the second, besides investing $10,000,000 in thrift stamps. All this taken in connection with the fact that 200,000 black men and boys actually saw service overseas, makes it safe to say that the American Negro kept the faith with Uncle Sam.

U. GRADS OF CONGREGATING IN LARGER CITIES 2,500 Hear Dr. Johnson Deliver Baccalaureate Sermon Sunday Taking his text from 35-40 verses of the tenth chapter of the Gospel of Mark, Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, president of Howard University, inaugurated the university's sixty-fifth commencement exercises Sunday, when he preached the baccalaureatae sermon. Declaring that university training serves to prepare one for a great life's work, Dr. Johnson urged the graduates of the university to sharply draw a line as between "greatness" and "great place." 2.500 Attend Service Some 2,500 persons gathered in the spacious university stadium at 5 o'clock in the afternoon with graduates of the nine schools and colleges of the university to celebrate the impressive services. The Rev. Howard Thurman, associate professor of systematic theology, School of Religion, offered the invocation; the university choir sang Randegger's anthem, "Praise Ye the Lord," and Dr. William L. Darby, secretary of the Washington Federation of Churches, conducted the Scripture reading and offered prayer. Greatness Grows From Service Dr. Johnson commended the aspiration after the essential greatness of life. He said, however, "one must distinguish between a great life and a great place in life. Greatness is a quality of life that grows from great service. The essentially great life may come to not contemporary place, or it may not do so. Such a life may be lived in humble place and circumstance, but whether or not it comes to great place, the essentially great life has sufficient compensation, including the joy of accomplishment, the experience of growing competence, the inspiration of increasingly clear vision, and the evocation of great service in other lives." Needs of the South Directly addressing the members of the graduating classes, Dr. Johnson called attention to the large numbers of colored professionally educated physicians, dentists, pharmacists and teachers who are congregated in the larger cities of the country while some of the Southern states, for example, with a colored population of more than a million, have a negligible number of such trained men and women who could render the greatest service to their fellows by locating in those sections away from congested centers. While reminding them they will find themselves members of a minority group, and professionally often lonely, and without the stimulous of the best minds of the community, "the opportunity yet remains for the greatest service among these thousands and thousands of colored people who stand mostly in need of their services," he said. Miss Burgee Soloist The exercises were concluded with a solo, "A City Called Heaven." by Miss Louise Burge. The aurpliced choir, the graduates in caps and gowns and the participants in the services retired during the playing of the recessional.

The presentation was made by the secretary of the commission. Since his appointment to the staff of the commission 11 years ago, Contee has acted as messenger to the commissioners. For the past few years he has been assigned to the office of the chairman. The pleasing manner in which he has rendered his service has made him well liked.

DePRIEST DENIES RECEIVING INSULL POLITICAL MONEY DePRIEST DENIES RECEIVING INSULL POLITICAL MONEY Despite the fact that a Federal Trade Commission examiner testified Monday that the Chicago law firm of Schuyler and Weinfield paid a "lot of money" received from the Insull utility interests to Congressman Oscar DePriest back in 1916 to line up the "black vote" in Chicago elections, Morris Lewis, secretary to the congressman and who helped him manage his campaigns, stated this week to The Tribune that Mr. DePriest spent large sums of money in elections, but he had no knowledge of the source of the funds. "We received money from the law firm," said Mr. Lewis, "but we did not know where Schuyler and Weinfield got the money." A. M. McDermott, the examiner, introduced part of the transcript of an Internal Revenue Bureau hearing of February, 1920, regarding income tax affairs of the law firm as part of the Trade Commission's utility inquiry into Insull's political and propaganda tactics. "Senator Richard J. Barr was candidate for attorney general. He called me his local manager. We gave him a lot of money in connection with it. I should say he got between $3,000 and $10,000, part of which was from ourselves and part of it from others. "In addition to that, we gave Oscar DePriest a lot of money in connection with campaigns. He would line up the Negro vote in connection with some special candidate that we happened to be interested in. Some of DePriest's fights have cost as much as $10,000 or $15,000. Weinfeld testified that most of the political money came from Commonwealth Edison Co., an Insull firm. Weinfeld asserted that he and his partner had made a minute examination of their firm's accounts and they had found no case of spending utilities money since 1922. Chantland brought out that there was no law in Illinois at the time forbidding corporations to spend money in political campaigns. James S. Epups, 27, of 207 Morgan Street. Northwest, was held for the action of the grand jury last week, by a coroner's jury in investigating the death of James Sheaffer, 88, of Conduit Rond, white, who was fatally injured by Epups's car while crossing Thirty-sixth and Prospect Streets. POOR SHOWING OF CADETS BRINGS SECOND REVIEW POOR SHOWING OF CADETS BRINGS SECOND REVIEW Failure to present a satisfactory showing at a review last week a second "special" review of the Ninth Brigade, High School Cadets, was held Tuesday afternoon in the Walker Stadium. According to reviewing officers and inspectors this second review was a decided improvement over the first. Colonel Harry N. Cootes, Third Corp Area, was the reviewing officer last week. He stated that the cadets made a poor showing. Following this statement a second review was ordered held. Unofficial Observer Colonel Cootes was "unofficial observer" of this second showing. He was in civilian clothes and sat in the stards. In the reviewing line were Colonel Spencer Dickerson Eighth Illinois; Colonel West A. Hamilton, Colonel Benjamin O. Davis, and Charles H. Houston, representing the board of education. Inspectors were Howard H. Long, representing the school system; Valter Savoy, principal of Garnet-Patterson Junior High School; and Captain Eugene Davidson. Cadets Cake Walk Criticism was leveled at the officers in charge of the cadets for the manner in which students are trained to march. It is noticeable that practically all of the cadets march with a short mincing step which resembles the cake walk, an old fashioned dance. This is especially evident when they are marching in parades in which other cadets take part. At each step the colored cadet throws his foot forward with a quick jerk. This is done in rapid fire order and closely resembles a cross between jazz and the cake walk. Military men point out that this is not in keeping with military training and looks more like a dance chorus of some sort on parade. When marching on dusty grounds this cake walk step kicks up dirt and clouds of dust particles. To Begin at 9 A.M. The forty-second annual competitive drill of the Ninth Brigade, High School Cadets, will be held at the American League baseball park on Friday, beginning at 9 o'clock a.m. The Ninth Brigade is made up of cadets from the Armstrong, Cardozo and Dunbar High Schools. The companies are competing for the diamond medal donated by the high school teachers of divisions 10-13, and awarded annually to the captain of the winning company. To Present Award Dr. J. Hayden Johnson, member of the board of education, will make the presentation to the winning company. General Milton A. Reckord, commanding general, Third Corps Area, United States Army, will review the brigade. Colonel Benjamin O. Davis, U.S.A., will be the executive officer for the competition. Judges Named The judges will be Captain Ira Aldridge, New York National Guard; Captain Montgomery Gregory, New Jersey National Guard; and Captain William Creigler, Maryland National Guard. Lieutenant Sylvester Blackwell, of the D.C.N.G. will serve as alternate judge. The review and award of prizes will take place at 5:20. In case of rain, the drill will be held on Saturday.

OUR READERS ARE ASKED TO PATRONIZE THE ADVERTISERS IN YOUR PAPER HOWARD WOMEN'S DORMITORY HEAD PASSES AWAY HOWARD WOMEN'S DORMITORY HEAD PASSES AWAY Miss Elaine W. Tancil, Director, Residence Building, Dies at Sister's Home Miss Elaine W. Tancil, director of one of the women's residence halls at Howard University, died on Tuesday morning, at the residence of her sister, Mrs. Elizabeth Tancil Minor. Miss Tancil had been forced on account of ill health to relinquish her duties at the university several weeks ago, but her friends had hoped that after a period of rest she would be able to return to the university. Miss Tancil came to Howard after ten years of successful teaching experience in West Virginia State College to assist Dean Lucy D. Slowe in organizing the educational activities of the new women's dormitories which were opened in September, 1931. Having prepared herself especially for this work by 'taking a master's degree in personnel administration at Columbia University, she had an unusually successful career at Howard University. The program of activities which she promoted and developed was a distinct contribution to the broad education of the women for life situations. Miss Tancil was appreciated highly by both students and faculty at Howard University. In referring to her passin' Dean Slowe said: "Howard University students have suffered a great loss in the passing of Miss Tancil. Her gentle nature, her strong character, her fine intellect and her superior preparation for personnel work—all combined to make her a valuable guide and friend to students. She devoted herself so unstintingly to the women of the university that her place will be hard to fill." Miss Tancil's funeral was conducted from the home of her sister 3307 Sherman Avenue, Northwest by Dr. Walter H. Brooks, pastor of the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church, on Thursday, at 2 o'clock p.m. Interment was at Harmony Cemetery.

Whatever relatives the woman has, if any, are being sought that her body, now at the District Morgue, may be removed. Described as approximately 40 years of age, dark brown-skinned, 5 feet 3 inches in height, and weighing 155 pounds, the woman was discovered lying on the street clad in a pair of man's tan shoes, long blue coat and a dark dress. Her left thumb is amputated at the joint, and as a further mark of identification, all her upper front teeth are missing with the exception of two gold teeth situated in the top and near the center of her mouth. The bottom teeth are all present. Taken to Casualty Hospital, the unknown woman was pronounced dead. Coroner A. Magruder McDonald declared death was due to natural causes. COURT HINDERS TRICK SALE OF BAPT. CHURCH Trustees Misled Into Signing a Deed of Trust Public auction of the newly-erected brick edifice of the Delaware Avenue Baptist, Church Delaware Avenue between L and M Streets, Southwest, was prevented by an injunction issued in the District Supreme Court after arguments by Attorney John H. Wilson, representing trustees, tended to show that the proposed transaction was based upon fraud. Following the granting of the injunction, the defendants, white contractors, entered into a stipulation that they would not attempt to sell the church. The request for the injunction was filed in behalf of John Lee, George Lomax, and Junius Paige, trustees of the church. It named as defendants J. A. Kay, Samuel Schwartz, E. S. Fitzgerald, and Thomas J. Owen. According to the arguments presented, Kay, with the knowledge of the other contractors presented certain papers to the trustees and asked them to sign, explaining that it was a routine matter in connection with the completion of their job on the church. The trustees, it is said, did not read the papers and were given nothing in consideration for their signatures. When the trustees are said to have refused to sign a trust for $6,500 and their property was on sale, they learned that they had been mislead and signed a deed of trust.

THEATERS SPORTS NINE OYS only 69 more vacancies FREE TRIBUNE NEWS PRINCIPAL SAYS HE WILL GUARD AGAINST ANIMUS Teacher Victor in Tilt With Superior in Rating Case Principal R. N. Mattingly, of Cardozo High School, apologized to the board of education for his ratings of Dr. John E. Washington, teacher, according to a communication received by the board, Wednesday, from Mr. Mattingly. Dr. Washington, who is a teacher of drawing, appealed to the board several weeks ago and charged that he had been given ratings over a period of years much lower than what he was entitled to. The board of complaints and appeals, after reviewing the case, reprimanded Mr. Mattingly and in a report stated that the principal and Mrs. Mary Hampton, director of art, had shown animus in rating Dr. Washington. May Be Demoted Just what action the board will take in regards to Mr. Mattingly's action is not known. However, it is said on good authority that he stands to be demoted or even dismissed from the service. In a letter to Secretary Harry O. Hines, secretary of the board, Mr. Mattingly stated that he would "guard against anything that might be interpreted as animus or lack of sympathy or tact." A portion of his letter to Mr. Hine follows: My dear Mr. Hine: I have studied carefully the committee's statement of facts brought out at the appeal hearing and its recommendations, and I promise to make my best endeavor to be guided by the wishes of the board of education both as stated therein and as may be reasonably implied therefrom, in my future administration of the Cardozo High School. A higher rating of Dr. J. E. Washington at the end of this school year and one in conformity with the findings of the committee regarding his previous ratings will be recommended in my report on ratings June 4, 1934. As far back as October 11, 1930, at a hearing before Mr. G C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintenden of schools, on Dr. Washington's appeal of his first low rating for June, 1980, I called attention to the existence of a distinct difference in philosophy of art instruction between Dr. Washington and Mrs. Hampton, his director. I now take the committee's recognition of this difference in philosophy as one of the facts brought out in the recent appeal hearing, to imply that I should give greater weight than formerly to Dr. Washington-
