SLASHER CAUGHT, ATTACKED 6 WOMEN
Baltimore Nurse One OfGroup Assaulted and Beaten Near Gardens
Expose of Picture Taking in Public Schools Creates Furor
Man Nabbed by Police After "Plant" Leads Him into Trap Set by Officers
Pretty Nurse Has Throat Cult and Pocketbook Stolen in Fight
Faced by six young women in Police Court Tuesday morning, Lewis Davis, 1318 Eighth Street, Northwest, was charged with attacking all of them and was ordered held for the action of the grand jury without bond by Judge McMahon.
One of the women Edore M. Brown, 1720 Druid Hill Avenue, a pretty young Baltimore nurse, told a harrowing story of being beaten, her throat slashed and a poetbook taken from her by Davis near Suburban Gardens.
All Identify Man
The others who identified Davis as their assailant were Juanita Vincent, 27, 730 Lorrie Place, Northeast; Maggie Cook, 35, 5002 Lee Street, Northeast; Margaret White, 19, 809 Forty-ninth Street, Northeast, and Helen Stanfield, 18, 407 Fifty-eighth Street, Northeast. According to Patrolman Charles Berry, attached to No. 11 Precinct and who works out of police headquarters, complaints had been flooding headquarters over a period of several weeks in which women had reported being attacked by a man near the summer resort.
Attacker Caught by Ruse
Officers Barry and R. McKee noticed that all of the attacks occurred on the same days of the week, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. Last Tuesday a "plant" installed at the place and police laid in wait. Lewis is said have enticed a young woman out of the Gardens and was attempting to force her to submit to him when police arrived on the scene and arrested him.
Neighborhood Terrorized
All of the victims told the same story and described how the man who appeared to be demented forced them to do his biddings. Miss Brown, the Baltimore nurse, suffered most from the assault. She was badly bruised and cut during the struggle with the man. She came here from the Monumental City to appear against him. For several weeks the man has been terrorizing women in the vicinity of the place and police had been scouring the neighborhood in an effort to catch him.
TO OPEN BOYS' CAMP
A summer camp will be opened for boys on the campus of the Downingtown, Pa. Industrial School July 7. Two teachers will have charge of the camp which will be for boys between the ages of 10 and 16.
Expose of Picture Public School
Tribune Merely Wants to L and Who Receive Transaction w
A furor was created in educational circles following the publication of a story in the Washington Tribune in which it was stated that graduates of the high schools, junior high schools and vocational schools were asked to pay sums ranging from three to ten cents for pictures they did not receive. The Tribune article made no reference to the photographer or photographers who made the pictures or for what purpose they were used. Parents and graduates reported that nearly every graduating class was asked to contribute for the pictures and when they wanted one of the pictures an additional cost had to be paid.
Against Board Policy
The Tribune also pointed out that it was against the policy of the board of education to collect money from school children for commercial purposes at schools. It will be remembered what steps the Columbian Educational Association had to take in order to get permission for school children to contribute one penny a child to go to the upkeep of the Frederick Douglass Home at Anacostia. Precedent had been set in this

SMITH IS FREED OF PERJURY
A demurrer filed by Attorneys Henry Lincoln Johnson and Benjamin L. Gaskins against the indictment charging Mortimer F. Smith, former officer of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, with filing a perjured statement of the condition of the company with the insurance commissioner was sustained Tuesday by Justice Joseph W. Cox following argument by Attorneys Johnson and Gaskins and the filing of briefs on behalf of Smith.

Rutherfords Charged
The same indictment also charged Samuel W. Rutherford, and his son R. H. Rutherford, ex-officers of the company.
Smith's attorneys argued that if the facts set forth were true their client should have been indicted separately for subordination of perjury and not in the same indictment with the Rutherfords.
They also claimed that the indictment set forth more conclusion and not the specific facts upon which the charge was based.
The result of the ruling by Justice Cox frees Smith entirely of this charge as the statue has run against this offense.
Mr. Kirkland has left the city for two months and could not be reached to comment on what if any further action he will take.
There is still pending another indictment against Smith based on the financing of the Masonic Temple in which he is charged with conspiracy along with John T. Eisher, former president of the National Benefit, and Daniel Gary, his associate in the brokerage business.
MAID CAUGHT IN ELEVATOR,ASKS $5,000DAMAGES
Stating that she was seriously injured when an automatic elevator in an apartment house closed on her, Mrs. Lillian Baker, 413 K Street, Northwest, filed suit last week against the Weaver Brothers, white for $5,000.
Mrs. Baker who is a maid for a family at Sedgwick Gardens, 3726 Connecticut Avenue, claimed she attempted to enter the elevator on August 4, 1933, when the door suddenly closed, causing injuries which resulted in contusions of the hand, face and chest and fracturing of her collarbone.
She was forced to remain in a hospital for 13 weeks. Mrs. Baker is represented by the law firm of Dobbins and Branson.
SUES RAILROAD FOR $10,000
A suit against the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad is scheduled to get under way in the District Supreme Court this week when George M. Staley, 1229 Minnesota Avenue, will seek to collect $10,000 damages from the railroad for false arrest. Staley who is represented by Attorney J. Franklin Wilson, claims he was arrested by a B. and O. detective in 1932 while he was crossing the tracks near Kelenworth Avenue and charged with stealing coal. The case against him was dismissed when it was tried in Police Court. . . .
Three Hurt When Court . Ceiling Crashes on Them
While waiting on the first floor of Police Court, last Thursday, three persons were injured when a section of the plaster ceiling fell on their heads.
Those injured were Geneva Diggs, 21, 1217 New Jersey Avenue, Northwest, who suffered severe cuts on the forehead; Bessie Tolson, 28, 53 DeFrees Street, Northwest, who sustained a lacerated scalp; and C. A. Artis, 30, 553 Twenty-third Place, Northwest, who received lacerations of the head.
The three were treated on the spot by Emergency Hospital staff physicians and later, removed to their homes. The accident occurred while the group were waiting for court to convene.
case. Principals nor other persons are permitted to collect money from children without the consent of the board. Parents protested a year or so ago against the high cost of graduation and this was reduced.
Members Disagree
Garnet C. Wilkerson stated that he is investigating the picture taking while Dr. J. Hayden Johnson colored member of the board, said that the matter was "merely routine" and in the hands of the principals, but another board member flayed the policy and said it was against the rule of the board for teachers to collect money from students for commercial purposes. Dr. Johnson also stated that senior classes were permitted to pay for pictures, but other board members stated that classes are under supervision of the board until they graduate and teachers nor principals help the right to collect money for any purpose without special permission.
The pictures were made before graduation and principals and teachers asked the children to contribute to the "fund"
The Tribune wants to know who gave the order to collect the "fund" and who got the money?

ST. LOUIS, Mo. (ANP)—Martha Lee Turner, 8-year-old girl was accidently shot in the back and slightly wounded by her aunt: Mrs. Pauline Body, 1009 Bissell Avenue, on the Eastside shortly before midnight last Tuesday, when the aunt mistook the child for a burglary.

WOMAN HELD IN SLAYING OF MAN
Nabbed by Police as She Was About to Make Her Getaway
Apprehended by police as she was about to make her escape through a woodshed in the rear of her house at 708 Twenty-third Street, Northwest, Mrs. Beatrice Wise, of that address, was ordered held in connection with the fatal shooting, Saturday, of Robert Ford, at a coroner's inquest Monday.
Mrs. Wise, according to Private John C. Auffenburg, attached to the Third Precinct, was on her way out of a rear shed as he arrived at the house following a radio summons. The officer told Dr. A. Magruder McDonald, coroner, that the woman stopped at his call.
Man Accuses Woman
Carried back into the house where Ford lay on the floor with a gunshot wound in his lower abdomen. Mrs. Wise was compelled to listen while the victim blamed her for the shooting. She denied this asserting that Ford was drunk. Police, however, held her pending the outcome of Ford's injuries. He died three hours later at Emergency Hospital.
At headquarters the woman told severa] conflicting stories before finally admitting that she shot Ford during an altercation. One of these stories was to the effect that the man had been slain by one of three men who came to the house shortly after her dinner hour. Later, Mrs. Wise told Detective Sergeant James C. Beck that she shot Ford in self-defence. The sergeant intimated that little credence was given this version in view of the numerous conflicting stories told by the accused.
Had Frequent Arguments
Neighbors told of numerous other clashes between Ford, known to some of them as "Robert Scott" and Mrs. Wise. The pair lived together at the Twenty-third Street house, they held, and engaged in frequent arguments. The Saturday shooting, according to Sam Skieff, 710 Twenty-third Street, was the climax of an argument that had begun in the early morning and continued throughout the day. Skieff did not appear at the inquest, police excusing him when it became known that his physicians did not approve of his leaving his home.
JAILS NEWSPAPER MAN FOR ATTACK
Luther Porter, 39, an advertising salesman for a local out-of-town newspaper, was arrested and locked up at No. 2 Precinct. Wednesday evening on a charge of assaulting Israel Ferguson, 13 R Street, Northwest. Porter was put in a cell when he was unable to raise $300 bond.

Ferguson who is a contractor, was placing some windows in the building and it is alleged that Porter objected to the way in which they were being placed. The injured man was treated by Dr. J. C Dowling.

Elwood L. Gibson Crushed to Death Under Wheels of Capital Transit Car
BODY IS MANGLED BEYOND RECOGNITION
Remains of Victim Lay Unidentified in District Morgue for Two Days
A verdict of accidental death was returned by a coroner's jury at an inquest into the death of Elwood L. Gibson, 1119 Forty-eighth Street, Northwest, Wednesday. Gibson, leaving a wife and 9 children, died as the result of injuries received when he was struck and knocked down by a Capital Transit Company street railway car. Gibson's body was mangled beneath the wheels of a trolley operated by Motorman Willis S. Booch, white, 32, 700 Sixteenth Street, Northeast, near Forty-fourth Street and Deane Avenue, Northeast, Sunday night. He was pronounced dead upon the arrival of physicians in the Casualty Hospital ambulance.
Testimony at the inquest revealed that Gibson fell into the path of the westbound car as it reached a point on Deane Avenue midway between Forty-fifth and Fortysixth Streets. Application of the brakes and the throwing of the vehicle into reverse was unavailing, the wheels having passed over his body and the car having travelled an approximate distance of 30 feet after the impack.
Seen by Witness
A long line of witnesses offered corroborative testimony to the effect that the trolley was not traveling at more than a moderate rate of speed, and that the operator made an heroic effort to brake the vehicle. Among these was Dr. Trolley B. Spriggs, 1028 Seventh Street, Northeast.
Carried to the D.C. Morgue, the body of Gibson lay for two days before police were able to establish his identity. This was achieved, the Tribune was told by a comparison of his finger prints. Inquiry at 1818 Oregon Avenue, where he at first was believed to live, resulted in the information that no one at the address knew him. His Northeast address was furnished by Attorney Otho W. Brunson, who represented Attorney John H. Wilson, counsel for the family at the inquest.
Much difficulty was encountered in the attempt to establish the man's identity. The mangled condition of his body was a distinct handicap to Dr. C. J. Murphy, deputy coroner, as well as to police. Dr. Murphy performed the autopsy and disclosed that the condition of the man's body was such as to prevent accuracy even to the extent of determining the victim's approximate age.
Stellar Local Athlete Becomes June Groom

Vote 97 to 3 to Refuse to Help in Buying Masonic Temple
Amid a stormy session which lasted well into the night the Order of the Eastern Star voted to refuse to associate with the grand lodge in the proposed purchase of the Masonic Temple.
The grand lodge and the Eastern Star, the latter a women's organization, met Wednesday night at the Scottish Rite Temple to discuss the matter.
Out of a total of 100 votes cast only three were in favor of repurchasing the temple.
Censor All News
Reporters were barred from the meeting and the officials approached after the session was as closed-mouthed as a clam. A statement was prepared for the Tribune, but this was withdrawn later. The first news of the proposed break between the grand lodge and the Eastern Star was published exclusively last week in The Tribune. Despite the censor and muzzle of officials news leaked out that an effort was made by Lewis W. Roy, grand master, to learn the sources from which The Tribune got the story. Several officials were blamed, but none mentioned had been seen or had talked with The Tribune. Grand Master Roy refused to see a Tribune reporter last week following a three-day attempt to reach him.
Figures Presented
Despite the fact that the women have refused to affiliate with the men in the purchase of the temple, Rey announced that the deal would go through without them. Those close up in Masonic ranks point out that the move would be foolish as he man could not possibly finance such a gigantic undertaking without the aid of the women.
The women are willing to help in the financing of a smaller building, but they point out that the sum of about a quarter million which it will require to buy the temple is out of the question. Figures were presented at the meeting to show that the order is not financially able to go through with the deal as it will require $3,500 a month to put it over when the largest amount collected was $1,800.
Refused to Talk
Mrs. Jennie B. Lee, grand matron of the Eastern Star, promised to issue a statement to The Tribune following Wednesday's meeting, but after the statement was prepared she decided not to give any information to the press. Other officers had "nothing to say" when approached.

George Rycraw is Guest Speaker on WOL Program
George H. Ryercraw, president, Inter-Departmental Lodge, No. 20, American Federation of Government Employees, was guest speaker on the "Government Family" program last Thursday afternoon, over Station WOL.
Mr. Ryercraw was introduced by the national president of the American Federation of Government Employees, E. Claude Babcock, and spoke on the subject, "Some Abuses Under the Merit System."
This is the first time in the history of Federal Employee organizations that colored employees have been privileged to air their views by the way of the radio. This liberalized policy is attributed to the national president, Mr. Babcock, who has made it plain that the American Federation of Government Employees exists for all Federal employees, regardless of race, creed or color.
The full text of Mr. Ryewra's talk appears in the Federal News, a feature on the editorial page of this issue.

PETERSBURG, Va.Communications received here recently concerning the activities of four graduates of Virginia State College who were employed by the Russian government in 1931, indicate that the appointees are making remarkable progress in their adopted homeland, contributing much to the economic and agricultural development of the U.S.S.R. and completely orientating themselves into Russian life. B. L. Hopkins, a graduate in the class of 1924, George W. Tynes, of the class of 1927, Welten Curry and J. J. Roane, both of the class of 1931, have earned for themselves positions of high responsibility and importance in the economic and agricultural divisions of the Russian government, according to the communications.
The work which these men are doing in the field of agriculture is largely experimental in nature.
In Agricultural
The first position held by B. L. Hopkins was one which required the making of tests in connection with the use of general makes of foreign equipment in winter plowing. After serving in this capacity for a short period of time, he was appointed assistant chief agronomist of the U.S.S.R., early in 1938. In this important position, Mr. Hopkins had general supervision over all tests on soil preparation and cultivation, designed to determine the most efficient types of machines and implements for the growing of cotton in the foreign land.
Experiments With Potato
In 1933 Mr. Hopkins was called from experimental work in mechanical operations to supervise experimentation with the sweet potato. He is now serving in this capacity, having direct charge of a number of large greenhouses used for experimental purposes. He has spent most of his time at Tosh Kent in Central Asia. J. J. Roane and George W. Tynes were first assigned to the physiological laboratory at the plant selection station, where they conducted experiments on the crossing of various types of cotton, grapes, and tomatoes.
Attends School
Later Roane was appointed to a supervisory position in a large cannery, located in the Northern Cau
C. L.J.—I have a son that slips out of the house in the morning and stays until midnight. What can I do with him?
Ans: Your son is out of your control and the best thing for you to do with him is to put him in a MILITARY SCHOOL. You gave him enough rope to hang himself before you attempted to control him and he refuses to take orders from anyone now. Try to make him interested in church work.
G. H.—Who took the money from me, last Friday morning? This money was not mine.
Ans: It appears to me that this money was taken off your PIANO by a peddler who came to your door and saw it. He immediately left without making himself known.
C. W. B.—Would it be advisable to cling to what I have started or what is best for me?
Ans.: It would be better for you to do so but I am inclined to believe you do not have the necessary money to continue. I suggest that you get a job during some of your off periods of the day for every penny of cash will be helpful to you.
R. F.—I have been worried to death about losing my man. Has he really quit me?
Ans.: He will be back as soon as he comes off that drunk he pitched when someone told him that you were talking to another MAN. All he needed was an excuse and he was glad of the chance to get to pout with you for a few days.
H. M. H.—I do not know where
I can locate any of my father's
people but please tell me if you
know the whereabouts of my father's
brother.
Ans: For many years your
father's brother, R. H., has been
living in a small town in Kansas.
He is the only survivor in your
father's family other than yourself.
He will get in touch with you be-
fore his death.
A. D. W.—How can I get my
machine and why does this party
hold it?
Ans.: You will have to go to
causes; and Tynes was sent to the Middle Valga District, not far from Moscow, for further experimental work. Welton Curry has done experimental work with cotton and other agricultural products. He is now in school at Moscow, sent here by the Russian government for further study in preparation for promotion to a higher position.
Marries Russian Girl
Marries Russian Girl
These young men report that they are rapidly becoming Russian in every sense of the term. The English language, they say, has almost faded from their memories. One of them, Welton Curry, has married a Russian.
It is interesting to note that these men, who formerly dwelt in prejudiced America, visit the most noted resorts in Russia. In one instance, Hopkins occupied the former summer home of the Shab of Bukwoo.
All of them received their training in agriculture at Virginia State College.
First Government Class in Social Work Starts
ATLANTA, Ga. (ANP)—The United States Government's first project to provide the country with trained Negro social and relief workers at Federal expense got under way here last week when the initial classes of a special summer session of the Atlanta School of Social Work opened.
Employed relief workers from seven southern states were in attendance to hear addresses by Dr. Will W. Alexander, president of Dillard University, New Orleans, La. and director of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation; Miss Gay B. Shepperson, director of Relief Administration for Georgia and Dr. Thomas H. Slater prominent local physician and a member of the Board of Trustees of the Atlanta School of Social Work.
This project, a part of Forrester B. Washington's national program for the integration of the Negro into the national relief program met the hearty accord of Harry Hopkins, national administrator and Miss Josephine Brown, assistant administrator in charge of training, and is one that will have a far reaching effect.
it yourself otherwise this party will not let anyone have it. The reason this person is holding your machine is because he wants to see you and knows this is his only resort.
H. L. D.—Is there a man who likes being in my company sometimes?
Ans.: The young man who lives on FOURTH STREET is very fond of being around you. Why don't you give him a bit of encouragement for he is anxious to show you how interesting he can make life for you.
B. L.—Will I get a job here or should I go to Philadelphia where my boy friend is? I am ashamed to stay here.
Ans.: You will secure a job and stay in your city for a short time. Save your money and get your baby and self some decent clothing then go to Phiadelphia and try to make the child's father support you. When he sees the child he will change his mind. Pay no attention to the slams the girls around your community say about you.
R. M.—Will I get anything from the accident?
Unless the party who caused the accident accumulates something pretty soon you won't get anything. This person does not have a cent and there is no need to sue him for money.
N. F. L.—Will my husband come back? He was sent away last week.
Ans: Your husband's MIND was temporarily unbalanced and that is why he was sent away. It is best that he go to the asylum and stay a few months for he might become dangerous if he stayed at home. His condition will improve very soon.
D.T.—Do you think it is a wise plan for me to leave where I am and get me a job?
Ans: Absolutely. You should not stay under that roof any longer than it is necessary. It will be quite hard for you to leave your GUARDIAN'S home but it is best that you do so since her husband is not the kind of man for any 18-year-old girl to live around.

Use of Ev Payne Declared Illegal By E. B. Henderson, Arbiter
Armstrong Catcher and Utility Player Said to be Over Required Age Limit; Tech Also Likely to Lose S. A. H. S. A. C. Diamond Title
Loss of both South Atlantic and City High School baseball championships by the Armstrong Technical High School was indicated in a communication from E. B. Henderson, head of the Department of Physical Education, Divisions 10-13, to principals of the three local senior high schools, just prior to the closing of school last week. The Orange and Blue institution was declared the loser of a controversy over the eligibility of one of the Generals' players.
The Roadside Hotel, South Fifth

The Orange and Blue institutio
troversy over the eligibility of one
Mr. Henderson, selected by the principals as the arbiter in the case of Everett Payne, Armstrong catcher and utility player, forwarded his decision following a review of the evidence which cited Payne as being over the required age limit for interscholastic athletic competition. Principal G, David Houston, of Armstrong Technical High School, told the Tribute, Saturday, that he would not appeal Mr. Henderson's decision.
Dunbar, Cardozo Co-Champs Robert N, Mattingly and Walter L. Smith, principals of Cardozo and Dunbar High Schools, respectively, would not comment following a receipt of the letters from the department head. Cardozo and Dunbar become co-champions in baseball by reason of Mr. Henderson's judgment.
The use of Payne, said to be over the high school age limi; by officials of the two schools competing against Armstrong, resulted in the forfeiture by the Generals of all the games in which the alleged ineligible player participated. Armstrong therefore was declared loser of all its baseball contests, instead of one. Cardozo beat Armstrong for the only loss suffered by the Orange and Blue on the field. With the nullification of all the Tech victories, however, went the title claims of the P Street school.
Track Meets Unaffected Payne was also used in several track meets in which Armstrong participated. The results of these meets, none of which Armstrong actually won, will be changed to the extent of declaring all the points won by Armstrong trackmen invalid.
Dunbar and Cardozo defeated each other once, during the season just closed. The forfeitures gives Dunbar and Cardozo a season's record of three wins and one loss, to tie for first place in the city series.
Just what disposition will be made of the case when the South Atlantic Conference meets in December remains to be seen. It is believed very likely, though, that the scholastic body will follow the lead of the local arbiter inasmuch as the same rules as to eligibility apply.
For a time during the dispute, Armstrong officials held out that use of Payne was legal. Affidavits in support of a later birth date than the one in the hands of the local high school games committee, were respected by Orange and Blue authorities.
These affidavits were ignored when Mr. Henderson reviewed the rules governing interscholastic play. Two methods of proving the eligibility (by age) of an athlete are provided in these rules. The first is by a properly certified birth certificate; the second by acceptance of the highest age of school record in the absence of such a certificate. Payne's birth-date had been certified to as 1913 by Tech authorities on two occasions.
ORIENTAL TIGERS BOW TWICE TO D.C. CUBS
"Prides of Point" Suffer Pair of Losses to Steady Young Pitchers
The up-and-coming D.C. Cubs threw a surprise bombshell into the camp of the veteran Oriental Tiger baseball club, last Sunday afternoon, when they snatched both ends of a double-header from the "Prides of the Point," in impressive fashion. The youngsters took an opening verdict by a score of 7-3 and then returned to run roughshod over the Scriver crew, 15-3 in the nightcap.
Playing on their new home grounds at New York Avenue and Fenton Street, Northeast, the Cubs lambasted the offerings of three Tiger hurlers to garner the twin win. A total of 37 hits were accounted for during the afternoon's pastime. Fourteen of these took care of the opening contest, and 23 were combed from the combined efforts of Hawkins and Adams in the finale.
In addition to a powerful attack, the young Northeast outfit played errerollers ball behind the steady pitching of Bob Carter and Jem-

St. Cyprian Bows Before Dark-Hosed Aggregation by 6-5 Margin
The Washington Black Sox turned back an ambitious St. Cyprian AC. nine in a single game at Glorietta Park, Malcolm, Md., last Sunday afternoon. The Church lads were eased out in a 6-5 verdict. Sinky Robinson toed the mound for the dark-hosed outfit, and though touched for 9 safeties, the rangy Sox right-hander so scattered them as to keep them from being harmful. Meanwhile his mates, led by Keystone Davis, were gathering 14 bingles off the offerings of Ford, Saint pitcher, for a total of 6 runs. Crawley and Brady were next in line for the Sox attack. They gathered a pair of safeties apiece while the rest of the Sox batters connected at least once.

MANAGERS AGREE TO CANCEL JULY EIGHTH GAMES
MANAGERS AGREE TO CANCEL JULY EIGHTH GAMES
Several Approve Plan of Layoff in Favor of Hillsdale-Sox Setto
Managers of the Willow Tree A.C. Washington Pirates and Colesville Tigers announced Friday that they would cancel what games their schedules called for for July 8, in view of the proposed game between the Hillsdale A.C. and the Winston-Salem Black Sox of North Carolina. These officials expressed a willingness to cooperate with the management of the 'Dales to the extent of removing themselves as competitors on that day when the Prides of LeDroit Park will be seeking to gather a respectable following at Griffith's Stadium. Andrew Allen, Frank Sayles, Wesley Thomas and David Eisby, representing the LeDroit Tigers, Anacostia Athletics, Washington Black Sox and Georgetown Athletics, respectively, indicated that they would recommend cessation of activities when they met their various clubs.
The suggestion was put to the various representatives by Sam Lacy, sports editor of the Washington Tribune, at whose office the meeting was held. The body was appealed to in the hope of developing a spirit of cooperation among the numerous local clubs. It was felt that all the clubs should do whatever is within their power to aid a club undertaking a step toward development of local baseball talent.
ORIOLES TROUNCED BY RAJAHS
The Rajah DePriest baseball team was victorious in both ends of its doubleheader with the young Oriole A.C., on the former's diamond, Sixty-first and Clay Streets, Northeast, last Sunday afternoon. The first game went by a score of 11-7 and the second $ t_0 $ the tune of 11-1.
The bats of the home team started banging the offerings of two Oriole pitchers in the early innings of the first affair, and Addison, Rajah hurler, was given such a comfortable lead that he was hardly compelled to extend himself throughout.
The nightcap saw Norman (Slim) Barnes in rare form. The big subway flinger disposed of 21 Orioles by strikeout, and it was not until the seventh inning that a Bird batter was able to reach first base. Brown and Ross hit safely to mar what had all the earmarks of being a perfect game up to that late stage.
J. Barnes's home run smash in the second inning started the Rajahs on another hitting spree which netted them a total of 11 runs, as many as were garnered in the opener.

They came from behind to snatch a 513 verdict in 10 innings before Bus Frazier, Georgetown ace, restricted them to 2 hits and no runs in the 7-0 nightcap.

The Pirates, anxious to settle a score of last year, began dickering for a clash with the 1933 Round Robin baseball champions shortly after the titlists opened their present campaign.
Bus Frazier in 2- As Aztecs-Geo Ace of 1933 City Champion Inning Shift of Second Game Appearance Come From The Royal Aztecs, fresh from the North Carolina, took on Ralph Donson's Park, Colesville, Md., last Su before local baseball fans. They caddict in 10 innings before Bus Frazier to 2 hits and no runs in the 7-0 min
The first game was a see-saw affair in which the ultimate winners were at first in front and then behind, only to scare a run over in the ninth inning to tie the score and eventually nose out a 2-run margin in the single overtime frame. The Royal Aztecs counted once in each the first and fourth. Georgetown, however, annuled this advantage by scoring a marker in the seventh and a brace of them in the eighth.
Eddie Wooden and Dave Whitlock contributed home-runs that were futile in the first fricole.
Only 27 batters faced Frazier in the 8-inning final game. The 3 men who got on base did so by reason of a pair of hits and an error by Virgil Coates. The star Georgetown moundsman accounted for 13 strikeouts, and otherwise showed throughout that he was master of the situation.
Jimmie Price and Harry Jackson were the hurriers of the Southwest aggregation. Price, who went like a house-afire in the south, took a severe pasting in his 5 and 2-3 innings shift in the finale. Jackson, on the other hand, went to the hill to get credit for the win in the first, and came back in the second contest and sent 10 champion batters back to the bench by the air route.

Shufflin Ossie Stewart faced the "Prides of LeDroit Park" in the first setto, and if given better support defensively might have gained the verdict. Joe Wheeler, his opponent, however, pitched steadily to get the better of the duel. Wheeler gave up only 4 hits, 2 of which started the fourth inning. These proved unavailing when the veteran 'Dale spit-baller forced the next two batters to fly out and the third to whiff. Ossie Bush's single with the bases full in the fourth netted the Hillsdales their first tailies of the afternoon.
Jimmie Hughes started on the mound for the LeDroit Parkers against the 1933 Montgomery County champions, but his ineffectiveness became apparent early in the game and he made way for Smoke Levi who gave up 3 hits in the 7 innings he toiled. Dick Temple's 2 hits led the batting efforts of the nightcap.
The fielding of young Proctor, Anacostia shortstop, was one of the features of the initial contest. The youthful flash went to both sides well and wound up each ef-

Slaughter-Steele Bout Declared "No Go" by Ref
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.—The scheduled 10-round bout between Sammie Slaughter, Terre Haute, Indiana fighter, and Freddie Steele (white), of Takoma, Washington, was halted in the first round and declared "no contest" by Referee Toby Irwin, here Friday night.
The arbiter took the action when it became obvious that the colored fighter was stalling. Slaughter was "floored" 10 times, according to reports, by punches that were without force, and several of which missed completely. Whether or not the Negro will be suspended could not be determined up to a late

Fredericksburg and Marlboro Teams Among Opponents of Locals
John Carter's Washington Black Sox aggregation is facing a tough assignment for the coming week, four different teams listed for clashes with the local outfit on separate days.
Today (Thursday) the Sox are in Fredericksburg, Va., for a clash with a team of that city. On Saturday, the dark-hosed clan under the leadership of George Ford, will take on the much improved LeDroit Tiger nine, on the latter's diamond at Twenty-sixth Street and Bennings Road, Northeast.
On Sunday, the Sox are slated to return to their Malcolm, Md., home grounds for a one-day stand with the Marlboro Giants.
Then on July Fourth the Black Sox will pop fire-crackers with the Oriental Tigers at the Dunbar Stadium. This will be the first meeting between these two teams for the present season. Both are anxious to annex the verdicts by reason of the fact that several former players are opposing their respective former teammates in the contests. The first game of the holiday twin-bill is set for 1:30 o'clock.

A sound golf game and vast tournament experience were the weapons used by Dr. Albert R. Harris in annexing the annual Invitational Tournament, sponsored by the Royal Golf Club, the finals of which were played over the Lincoln Memorial Golf Links, last Sunday afternoon.
STAGE ALL SET FOR JULY 8TH CLASH
Novel Features Listed as Added Attractions for Diamond Tilt
A water-melon eating contest, a pie-eating contest and a chicken race will be added features of the proposed baseball attraction slated for the American League Baseball Park July 8. These features will precede the scheduled clash between the Winston-Salem Black Sox and the Hillsdale A. C. of this city.
The North Carolinians have just completed a tour of the middle west in which they compiled a record of 24 wins and 4 losses. Their schedule calls for an extended home stay just prior to their Washington engagement and an ensuing jaund up the Atlantic Coast.
The Hillsdales were selected by promoters of the affair as one of the most outstanding teams playing semi-pro baseball hereabouts.

James (Jimmy) Williams, District champion and one of the favorites to capture the Invitational, had to be content with the first flight consolation prize, which he won after a thrilling duel with Herbert Bethea, one of the most improved players in the game. Bethea succumbed by a score of 1-up in 20 holes.
Murphy Leach defeated James Ray, 4 and 3, to capture the finals in the second flight.
This year's tournament was one of the most successful staged by the Royal Club, and competition was spirited throughout. Prizes included trophies and a set of matched clubs, presented at the conclusion of the play.

Tires Leading Factor
in Motoring Security
| The laws of an incressing num-
‘ber of states and cities are recog-
nizing the fact that cheap and un-
safe tires are the leading cause of
accidents, other than those caused
by careless acts of drivers. This
bears out the experience of racing
drivers, who in the early days call
ed a racing event a “race of tires.”
For the past. 15 years, Fire-
stone has been vitally interested in
providing the utmost safety in
tires, for their tires have been on
the winning cars at Indianapolis
ach year during that period.
Firestone engineers recognized the
fact that the higher speeds of
modern cars would bring not only
public opinion, but legal action,
to bear on the importance of safe
ites: for sl] motorists.

DR. JOHNSON IS WARMLY GREETED BY BAPTISTS
Howard President Hailed by Thousands at Washington Auditorium
By J. A. G. LuValle
Before a large colorful audience of more than 3,500 people, Friday night, at the Washington Auditorium, President Mordecai W. Johnson, of Howard University, delivered the feature address of the Baptist B.Y.P.U. and Sunday School Congress held here last week.
The address was inspirational, portraying the spiritual power of the Negro and giving possibilities of the contribution the Negro can make to changing civilization.
He said that our present civilization is transitory and can not stand.
He stated that it is high time for the Negro to get down to real thinking, and planning the future program of the race. "A great people grow from their spiritual working out of their economic place in civilization," he said.
Dr. Johnson said that we do not want any special Negro civilization but that the Negro must work with the present civilization and improve it.
Speaking of the Negro's optimistic and happy nature, the speaker said that the Negro had 260 years of slavery and came out of it happy, with a spirit that cannot be crushed. He stated that the happiness of the human heart does not depen upon obtaining and possessing property. And the leader who shows his love for obtaining property fails to impress the people with his sincerity.
Slams Citys Churches
He contrasted the deep religious spirit and great fervor of the Negro in the smaller town; and rural districts and said that with his suffering, sorrow and poverty, the rural Negro enters God's presence with a deeper reverence than the city Negro. In the cities we go to churches where we see nothing, hear nothing and feel nothing. Applause greeted that statement.
He spoke of the beauty and inspiration of Negro music and cited the effect of Negro music upon the Europeans. He spoke of the effect that James Reese Europe produced when his band marched through the streets of Paris, playing real jazz music. "Our music gives us abandon, joy and great incites," said the speaker. "And a great people must respect its incites and use its intellect to reflect upon life's possibilities. The Negro has a definite contribution for our changing civilization and in contributing his deep religious incite, his spiritual power for happiness and his musical talent he brings the word to the realization that it is not necessary to fight devastating wars for property rights because property does not make for happiness." In closing he said, "Whatever things I have said that are pure, whatever things that are good, think on these things that we may join our forces for a better and happier civilization."
Given Oration
The large crowd gave Dr. Johnson and his administration at Howard University spontaneous approval by long applause when he mentioned the attitude of an out of town weekly newspaper toward his administration. He spoke of that paper three times and each time he received spontaneous applause of approval. Mrs. L. Peters, missionary to Africa, preceded Dr. Johnson and
son of Des Monies, Iowa, delivered the closing sermon at night. This session was conceded the best attended and best in accomplishments for many years. The president is carrying out a five-year program, from which results are being observed.
Hailed as Greatest Leader

DR. MORDECAI JOHNSON, president of Howard University, was greeted by a great ovation following his address at the Washington Auditorium last Friday evening before a crowd of 3500.

Baptists Win Philadelphia Printing Ink Company Suit
PHILADELPHIA, (ANP)—Abrupt conclusion was written into the case of the White Manufacturing corporation against the Foreign Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention of 701 South 19th Street, in which the corporation sought $900 damages for commodities sold the Convention back in 1929 when a jury in the Municipal court last Friday returned an opinion in favor of the Baptists.
The White concern was suing to recover in the case of a quantity of ink, valued at $1,147.50 which was sold by written contract to one of the Baptist Convention employees at its branch office in Tennessee on March 30, 1929.
It was said the contract was made with I. Tyre of the Convention's printing department. It was averred that $652.50 worth of the ink had been shipped to the defendants shortly after the contract had been made when the company received notice that the balance would not be accepted. The court held an employee was not authorized to draw a contract.

By the Rev. W
S. S. Lesson XIII
Golden Text—Of His Kingdom
here there shall be no end. Luke
1:33.
Introduction
The first creation of the heavens
and earth consisted of two phases,
or parts
1. The spirit, or invisible phase constituting the heavens of which Jehovah God, a Spirit being is the King and ruler, the angelic hosts the subjects and inhabiters there of.
2. The earthly, visible phase consisting of the earth, humanity, animals, birds, fish, trees and all visible objects over whom man was given dominion to be king and ruler.
This visible kingdom, as well as life was lost by man because of his disobedience to his Father. The power and rulership were usurped by the evil one (Satan) who had been the ruler of the kingdoms up to the present time.
The Logos, who was with God in the creation and aided in the creating (St. John 1:1) was changed from the spirit condition and became a human being. He was named Jesus, given to Him by God through the Angel; He came for the purpose of being the De-liverer, the Redeemer, the Recreator and Restorer of the world and all mankind back to its former estate before the fall into sin and death.
In the January, February and March quarter, Matthew is given as a description of the manner in which God by the Spirit has changed His Spirit Son from the first estate to a human Son, like unto Adam (Heb. 2:9-15) that He by suffered and death would become the new Creator, Redeemer and Restorer of all) things that had been lost in Adam (Heb. 2:15-18) Lesson 1—Birth and Infancy of

Entering into Gallice He began to preach and to teach, going about doing good, healing the sick, etc.
Lesson 4.—Standard of the Kingdom
(Matt. 5:1-48)
Taught His disciples the new constitution, the laws of which would govern the New Kingdom (church) which He would create by the Holy Spirit.
Lesson 5—God's Kingdom First
(Matt. 6:1,24)
Taught to seek Jesus and to be justified by God through Him and all these things would be given them. (Rom. 3:1-6)
Lesson 6—Timely Warnings (Matt. 7:1-29)
How to enter into life and death. The materials to use in building for the future—on sand or rock.
Lesson 7—Jesus' Power to Help
(Matt. 8:1-9:34)
Willing to aid in all time of trouble and having mercy where needed.
Lesson 8—The Twelve Sent Forth
(Matt. 9:35-11:4)
Sending His disciples to the lost sheep of Israel; giving them power over all evil, and telling the Kingdom of Heaven (the Head of the Church) is at hand.
Lesson 9—Testimony Concerning Himself
(Matt. 11:2-12:50)
The only way that Jesus testified that He was the Messiah was by his works, and that information He sent to John who was in prison.

Lesson 11—Jesus Tells What Is Faith
(Matt. 13:53-16:12
By the healing of this woman's daughter by her asking that it should be done, because of her great faith in Him He answered it.
Lesson 12—This revigw restates the previous lessons and winds up with the text from Isa. 9:6, why this child was born and son given. And the coming Kingdom would be on His shoulder, and He would rule and reign, be called Wonderful, a Counsellor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father (lifegiver) and the Prince of Peace. All this information given by Matthew was for the purpose of letting us know what Jesus went through in order to be the New Creator, Redeemer and Restorer of the earthly part of the Kingdom that was lost in Adam.
REVIEW
The lessons in the last quarter were a description of the birth and life of Christ preparing Himself to be crucified and be resurrected to become the world's Redeemer, Recreator, Restorer and Lifegiver, the hea of the New Creation.
This quarter starts with the information by Jesus what is the church, upon whom built, and the foundation.
Lesson 1.—Confessing and following of Christ (Matt. 16:13-17:27.
Confessing of Christ, repenting, 27-I)
Holy Spirit.
Lesson 1.—The Risen Christ.
St. John 20:1-16. When Christ comes into your life then you seek for the good things that come from above.
Lesson 2.—The Child of the Church.
Matt. 18:1-14; 19:13-15. Those who come in must be like little children in disposition and spirit. Lesson 3.—The Law of Forgiveness.
Matt. 18:15-35. This is one of the laws of the Church that Jesus commands to be executed.
Lesson 4.—Giving all for the Church.
Matt. 19:1-30. Sacrificing all even our lives to become one of the body members of Christ (the Church).
Lesson 5.—Standard of Greatness in the Church.
Matt 20:1-34. Becoming humble, meek, and acting as a servant in order that you may become great in the Kingdom.
Lesson 6.—Jesus Acclaimed King.
Matt. 21:1-46. The church is to acclaim Him as their Head and King.
Lesson 7.—Christianity and Patriotism.
Matt. 22:37-39. A good Christian makes a good citizen; he obeys the laws of the Lord as well as the laws of the country.
Lesson 8.—The Future of the Church.
Matt. 24:1-25:30. To rule and reign with Christ in His Kingdom a thousand years judging the Kingdom of the world.
Lesson 9.—The Last Judgment.
Matt. 25:31-46. This signifies that the living and dead must all appear before the Judge in His 1,000 year reign.
Lesson 10.—Jesus is the Shadow of the Cross.
Matt. 26:1-75. In the Valley and Shadow (sin) of death (the cross) not fearing any of the evil that is to come.
Lesson 11.—Jesus on the Cross
Matt. 27:1-16 As Jesus acted in
His death struggles thinking not
of His own condition but of His
friends and enemies. So should be
the Christians' attitude in their
walk while diving in this world.
This description is the manner
in which the church will be pre-
pared to enter into the Spiritual
phase of the New Creation
(Christ's Kingdom) when He resurrects them from the dead when
He came (1 Cor. 15:30-58).

MODERN 18-HOLE
GOLF COURSE FOR
D.C. NEGROES
A delegation of colored golfers
obtained an audience with Captain
Guy Finnan, superintendent of
Public Buildings and Grounds, in
his office at the Navy Department
Building, early this week, and pre-
sented a formal request for ade-
quate golfing facilities on behalf of
local golf players.
The committee, composed of Dr.
Albert R. Harris, dentist, Dr.
George W. Adams, physician;
James N. Saunders, Dunbar teach-
er, and John A. Lankford, archi-
tect, represented the Royal Golf
Club of this city. Dean Dwight
0. W. Holmes, of Howard Univer-
sity, was also supposed to accom-
pany the group, but was unable to
do so because of business at the
university.
Captain Finnan, after hearing
the plea of the delegation, inform-
ed them that he already had under
advisement+ plans for an 18-hole
course in Anacostia Park. The
plans, he stated, call for an up-to-
date club house with shower pro-
visions.
The buildings and grounds head
declared that in all probability
work would be be-un under the di-
rection of the Public Works Ad-
ministration in the very near fu-

Dr. Thompkins Speaks
at Metropolitan Church
The eleven o'clock service at
Metropolitan A.M.E. Church on
Sunday was devoted to an anni
versary program of the Bethel
Literary and Historical Society,
and Dr. William J. Thompkins re-
cently appointed from Kansas
City, Mo., to be recorder of deeds
for the District of Columbia, was
the speaker,
Dr. Thompkins discussed _ the
ministry of serviee from the foun-
dation of the world, showing the
ministry if service of Moses when
the Children of Israel were in ad-
Yersity; the ministry of service of
Christ when humans were afflicted
ing mind, body, or estate, and to-
day, the service of President
Franklin Delano Roosevelt to an
entire nation jn adversity .
As a result of President Roose-
velt’s humanitarian. interest, Dr.
Thompkins said. the forthcoming
elections would be settled. not on
party lines but on his” considera-
tion—“Did the candidate support
President Roosevelt?” ”
‘The church was filled to_capac-
ity many delegates to the Baptist
Sunday School Convention from
all parts of the United States be-
ing present, and the speaker's dec-
Jaration that President: Roosevelt
and his policies would be the issue
on which candidates of alj parties
Would rise or fall, was received
with enthusiastic demonstration.
Locally, Tr. Thompkins said
the colored community should man-
ifest more interest in their city
rule, deploring the poor health rec-
ord ‘of the colored population—in-
dicaifte of official incompetence
or neglect isi the Health Depart-
ment—and the mistaken laissez
faire attitude of the citizens in the
matter of thé qualifications and
attitudes of those proposed for ap-
pointive positions of official re-
sponsibility.
He suggested the same zealous
interest in the fitness of white
appointees and candidates “as is
somewhat overdone in the matter
of colored nominees and candi-
dates,
IN YOUTH LIES
HOPE OF WORLD,
SAYS EDUCATOR
Asserting that youth and a reli-
gion of love are the hope of the
world, Dr, William Stuart Nelson,
president of Shaw University of
Raleigh, N. C., Sunday afternoon,
appealed to delegates of the Nation-
al Sunday School and B; X. P. U.
Congress to develop a sense of mis-
sion of vocation, .
Speaking on the. subject, “The
hope of the world—Religion and
Our Youth,” at the Vermont Ayve-
fat Baptist Church, the: Carolina
educator said “You are the hope of
the world, if you believe you are.
‘The Jews believed they were an ap-
pointed people with a great mission
and proved this to be true. Make
love, even the love af Jesus Christ,
your ideal and be loyal to. that i-
deal; and take as your mission the
bringing of the world to this same
loyalty.” >
Continuing Dr. Nelson declared
“the. world is. placing larger de-
pendence on the youth, as eviden-
ced by their employment in im-
portant places in the government,
by the dependence which other
governments such as Gormany and
Russia are placing upon them for
‘the support, of their, national
deal, and by t%eir leadership in
the field of education as seen in the
youthfulness of lately appointos
colleze presidents.” '

thusiasm and optimism,” Dr. Nel-
son explained. He further declared
that the hope of the world, how-
ever, rests not only upon the place
of youth in the ‘scene of things
but upon the ideals of youth,
‘Those who place the hope of the
world in religion must meet three
attitudes in the world today, the
former Howard professor declared,
naming the following, first, skep-
ticism toward religious practices;
second, irreverence toward the
same vractices; and third, a strong
allegiance in saciety with the un-
ethical. Dr, Nelson then pointed
out remedies. for these attitudes
declaring that “to disparge reli-
gion because of any of the imper-
fections in the human elements
which it employs is to be guilty of
a ‘premature adjustment of think-
een
Concluding, Dr. Nelson asserted
that religion must prove its value
toward. the unethical practices of
our time by its attitudes toward
war and pernicious commercialism.
He expressed hope in this direction
as recent development indicates
that religious forces are determin-
ed to take a proper stand om these
matters. :
Dr. Nelson left the city late Mon-
day for Raleigh to attend the fune-
ral of Dr. N. F. Roberts, viee-presi-
dent of Shaw University, who died
Sunday morning. Dr, Roberts had
been a teacher at the university
for 50 years, He once served as

FEDERAL FARM SERVICE FAILS TO AID NEGRO
Survey By Newspaper Man Shows Hardships of Colored on Increase
CHICAGO (ANP) — Observations which have been made by Arthur Evans, staff correspondent for the Chicago Tribune, uphold the belief that broad programs in relation to agriculture and industry inaugurated by the federal government under the Agricultural Adjustment Act and the National Recovery Act have not merely failed to improve the condition of the Negro farmer and industrial workers, but, in many instances, has increased the hardships of this element of the southern population.
Mr. Evans is completing a tour of the South which began in Missouri and has taken him into many towns in most of the states of the South. His dispatches have been reed with keen interest by Negroes for two reasons: first, because those who know Mr. Evans have regard for him as an honest reporter, and, second, because Negro subscribers to The Tribune, acquainted with is indifferent toward the vital economic and social questions affecting the Negro as such, have been struck by the paper's evident desire to employ any issue, even that of the Negro, as ammunition in its attack against the present policies of the administration at Washington
Because, therefore, of The Tribune's ambition to "show up" the so-called Brain Trust, the woes of the Negro receive the significant advertising which is possible through. The Tribune and its press service which is a situation that some persons liken to that of Communists and the Negro in the Negro in the United States. Nevertheless, Mr. Evans's dispatches have supported the charges hitherto made that Negro farmers and industrial workers are being cheated of any benefits to be derived from the Washington plans.
VIRGIN ISLANDS SEEKS REMOVAL OF GOV. PEARSON
VIRGIN ISLANDS SEEKS REMOVAL OF GOV. PEARSON
In a letter referred to the Senate Insular Affairs Committee, removal of Paul M. Pearson as Governor of the Virgin Islands was demanded by the Suffragist League of the islands this week. Ella Griff, acting president of the league who signed the protest letter, charged the Governor with "mal administration, inefficiency and misleading qualities." She assailed him for the hiring of a well-to-do business man as an NRA inspector of public safety, for allegedly inefficient hospitals and for alleged failure to eradicate malaria.
"Poor people," the letter read, "who are taken to the hospital because they have no proper care at home, are sent out of the hospital before they are strong enough to walk because there is not enough money allotted the hospital for the maintenance of these patients. We even had typhoid fever the last six months which believe is due to the unsanitary conditions in which the gutters are kept. This small island has never been in such plight before until this present administration came here."
Tuberculosis Camp for Children to Open July 1
The appeal for contributions of money urgently needed to enable the District Tuberculosis Association to provide proper care for the greatly increased number of tuberculosis children in its summer camp at Fourteenth and Upshur Streets, Northwest, and by other means, which has been made through the press and radio broadcast has already brought substantial response according to a statement from Mrs. Ernest R. Grant, executive of the association. The gifts so far received for this special Health Camp deficit amount to $15,000.
The necessity for providing the extra number of cot-beds for the little camp patients to use in their daily sun and air rest periods has been met by a special grant of funds from the Emergency Relief Administration through the District Welfare authorities. The camp with complete equipment will open on July 1 under Miss Olive Ward, trained superintendent and a staff of camp councilers and helpers.

President Sends Message of Hope to NAACP Meeting
OKLAHOMA CITY.—President Franklin D. Roosevelt sent greetings to the 25th annual meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in session here this week.
"No one can glance even casually at the progress which Negroes have achieved in the past 60 years, particularly in the past 15 years since the end of the World War, without finding hope and inspiration for the future," the President's message read.
DUBOIS HINTS AT STARTING NEW ORGANIZATION
Crisis Editor Issues Call for Younger Group to Attend Meeting
NEW YORK (ANP)—The stale-mate brought about between the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and Dr. W. E. B. DuBois as a result of his published resignation from the association and the failure of the association's board to take action upon the matter, has increased speculation as to the probable future plans of the Crisis editor. Dr. DuBois made no secret of the fact that he was not satisfied with the results of the Amenia, N.Y. conference held last year.
One-tenth Came
Three hundred young men and women were considered to take part in that conference, but because of limited accommodations, only one-tenth of that number was invited.
In February of this year, Dr. Du-Bois contacted through letter many of the others and acquainted them with his attitude in respect to the Amenia conference, which was later humorously dubbed "the anemic conference."
In his letter Dr. DuBois allowed some insight into his views in his description of "A Negro Youth Movement." He wrote:
Hints at New Movement
"I want to help inaugurate a movement of the younger set of thinkers in the United States looking toward the eventual emancipation of the Negro race in America and in the world. I want the cooperation, not simply of those who are young in years, but also of those who are young in thought and adaptability, despite their years; and on the other hand, I do not want persons who are young, unless their thought is also young and modern and progressive.
"My idea is that the existing organizations among us are either reactionary, or unadapted to postwar conditions; or else they are so radical that they will not reason or look facts in the face."
Not Given Up
After the above statement of his position, Dr. DuBois made the suggestion that the persons to whom he write join with him in a conference in New York City in July of this year.
Recently, it has been learned, this conference has been postponed, but not given up.
Inasmuch as the Amenia conference was popularly thought to reflect the position of the N.A.A.C.P. and Dr. DuBeis was not satisfied by its scope and deliberations, conjecture is rife as to whether he proposes to form a new organization with the help of the persons he has written to and the direction in relation to the N.A.A.C.P. which its work might take.
Sixth Member of "Green Pastures" Show is Dead
NEW YORK (ANP)—J. A. Curtis, white, stage manager for "The Green Pastures," died Sunday night at his home in Maplewood, N.J., after an illness of five months. He was forced to give up his work when the show was playing in Springfield, Mo., in January. Mr. Curtis is the second of the white members of the organization to die since 1930 when the show opened. The other one was Howard Smith, company manager, who died two years ago. Four of the colored members of the cast have died: Wesley Hill, Sam Davis, Salem Tutt Whitney, and Jesse Shipp.

Hats Off to Dr. Thompkins
Already the beneficial influence of Dr. William J. Thompkins, recorder of deeds, has been felt in the community. Despite the fact that his position is a political appointment, Dr. Thompkins has taken a keen interest in Washington and its welfare.
He has entered into the community life with zeal and although he has been here but a short time he has aroused Washington to its duty to the health of the citizens as has never been done before by a man in a similar position.
The establishment of baby stations in various parts of the city as advocated by Dr. Thompkins will in a large measure reduce the infant mortality. Few of the underprivileged mothers ever visit a clinic, but if the clinic is brought to them, as advocated by Dr. Thompkins, these mothers and babies may be reached and benefited by the advice and help of experienced nurses and physicians.
He has shown interest in the placing of colored nurses at Gallinger Hospital.

4. Character in Our Schools
At fifty dollars per day, some sheltered experts are here in Washington to teach a few selected, sheltered experts (sic) how to create character in a few selected children, at a total cost to the taxpayers of $35,000.
True, character is an asset to be valued by any nation and any people. It is the "adamantine crowd," outlasting all honors and rising in value above every human attribute. But what it is and how it may be produced outside of the social setting of actual life experience in real life, no one knows.
In the first instance, men and women who are without the practical experience of other men and women who suffer from what we comfortably fixed beings call "lack of character," need to have is some unsheltered, unprotected striving to live. Let the proponents of "character in others" face a little danger and privation, go hungry for a few days, be lost, or shipwrecked at or in some large city where they are unknown, be without money, be robbed, go to jail innocently, and spend a few months as common laborers, or face dangers and illness to their loved ones without funds, and note their character status.
Not until one is thrown into the muddy stream of the really forgotten men and women of American industry, or is segregated, and feels what it is like to struggle alone and unconsidered is he really educated and prepared to inculcate the spiritual background of a life that is worthy because true to itself and its Maker.
But the Washington public will enthuse for a while over the experiment, because it has enough momentum to cause money to be spent to put it into action. Meantime, we are what we are, and that is character.
At fifty dollars per day, some sheltered experts are here in Washington to teach a few selected, sheltered experts (sic) how to create character in a few selected children, at a total cost to the taxpayers of $25,000.
True, character is an asset to be valued by any nation and any people. It is the "adamantine crowd," outlasting all honors and rising in value above every human attribute. But what it is and how it may be produced outside of the social setting of actual life experience in real life, no one knows.
In the first instance, men and women who are without the practical experience of other men and women who suffer from what we comfortably fixed beings call "lack of character," need to have is some unsheltered, unprotected striving to live. Let the proponents of "character in others" face a little danger and privation, go hungry for a few days, be lost or shipwrecked at or in some large city where they are unknown, be without money, be robbed, go to jail innocently, and spend a few months as common laborers, or face dangers and illness to their loved ones without funds, and note their character status.

Why Not Practice It?
The Rev. Dr. J. C. Austin, pastor of a large Chicago church, spoke to a crowd of several thousand of his race, recently. The minister advocated truck farming by Negroes as a means of solving the economic problems of the race.
After his eloquent address the Rev. Mr. Austin left to have a degree conferred on him at Wilberforce University and on Saturday he will sail for Europe, Africa and Asia for the study of economic conditions.
We wonder why some of the ministers will not take a tip from the Book they read and talk about so much, and actually live the life as advocated by Christ—or at least practice what they preach.
Scottsboro—1934
(By Ruth Fitch Boyd for the ANP)
Nine living men! Protest because their death
Dark symbols of man's darkest avenue;
But prisons are as real, God knows, as lice,
And courthouses with other things are packed
Than abstract justice. A trial's a sweating fact
To men whose life blood freezes when the ice
Clicks in a jony's January eyes.
Narrowed by hate, and walled and crossed by lies.
Nine living men! Protest because ther death Will let oppression draw a deeper breath With his asthmatic lungs, its brutal toe Tramping the pyramids we built by inches
No such hills. Deery a system that wars and
knocked
Call this one dire example—I know—I know—
Let nine men fire and if these nine should die
Who hold the rope, my friends, but you and I?
Some people are so cheap that they cannot
produce anything that's marketable.
A week's continued rain may spoil our sun-
shine, but not our temper.
Some folks have laugh heartily unless it's
a joke.

Burleigh Calls Attention to Three Significant Musical Events in New York.
To the Editor:
Within the past few weeks, three significant musical events have occurred in New York City which, in my opinion, demand more than passing mention.
Within the past few weeks, three significant musical events have occurred in New York City which, in my opinion, demand more than passing mention.
These three outstanding achievements were:
1. The concert of the New York Chorus directed by Miss Mimie Brown under the plan of the Harlem Adult Education Association.
These three outstanding achievements were:
1. The concert of the New York Chorus directed by Miss Minnie Brown under the plan of the Harlem Adult Education Association.
2. The recital given by Mrs. Charlotte Wallace Murray; and
3. The winning of a Fellowship in the American Guild of Organists by Miss Carlette C. Thomas.
The result obtained by Miss Brown from her chorus of native voices was a splendid evidence of her ability to train and direct a group of people who sing naturally and unprofessionally. Their rendition of the "Gitcha Gumee" chorus from Coleridge-Taylor's "Hiawatha" was an example of choral singing that compared favorably with the best that New York affords.
Mrs. Murray was heard by a large, enthusiastic audience at her recital for the Y.W.C.A. Camp at Fern Rock. This accomplished artist has not given a New York recital for a long time. This is a pity, since a singer so bountifully equipped in voice, temperament and intelligence and having a vocal technic much above that of the usual concert artists, ought to be well known by all music lovers. Her program showed the results of careful preparation, ignoring as it did conventional group forms and language sequences.
The American Guild of Organists was formed in 1896 with a view to raise the standard of efficiency of organists by examinations in organ playing, in the theory of music and in general musical knowledge; and to grant certificates of Fellowship and Association to members of the Guild who pass such examinations. It encourages the composition and study of sacred music; helps to secure competent organists for the service of the church and provides opportunities for intercourse among members and the discussion of professional topics.
To pass the examination for a Fellowship demands musical scholarship of the very highest degree and it is a matter of great racial pride that Miss Thomas has successfully passed this exacting test admitting her to that select company of organists who have the right to wear an Oxford crimson hood over their gowns and to affix to their names the letters F.A.G.O.

Says 372nd and Other Regiments in World War Were Cited for the Croix de Guerre.
To the Editor:
I am writing to call your attention to an implied error of fact in your descriptive matter running with your pictures—"The Unknown Soldier Speaks" in your issue of May 31.
You state "...the French War Department which cited a complete Negro regiment for the Croix de Guerre, an honor conferred in the most exceptional cases. The regiment honored was the 369th Infantry of the 93rd Division, the old Fifteenth Infantry of the National Guard of New York. ...."
I this connection I want to advise you in the interest of historical accuracy that there were a number of regiments so honored. The rule is that a citation in Orders of the Army Commander once, entitled the colors of the regiment to be decorated with the Croix de Guerre. This was done in the case of the regiment mentioned. However, I point out that the same thing was true of the 370 Infantry (old 8th Ill. Infantry), the 371st, and 372nd Infantries, all of which regiments including the New York regiment, were brigaded with the French Army. The 1st battalion of the 372nd Infantry was the former 1st Separate Battalion, Infantry, National Guard of this city, the first unit of National Guard troops anywhere to be called for War Service by President Wilson. This unit went into service March 26th, 1917.

Glad Tribune Exposed Scheme of Picture Takers in Local Schools.
To the Editor:
I am glad your paper took up the matter of schools collecting money from graduates for pictures. With the high cost of buying class pins, dresses and other expenses connected with graduation, parents were put to their wits end trying to meet the various costs of our children. My daughter was asked to contribute to a class picture. She was told by the principal that all of the class members were expected to donate this money. I wonder who got this money if the school officials did not know about it. May the Tribune continue to enlighten the citizens on the various schemes in our public schools.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. THURSDAY. JUNE 28. 1934
What of that Forty-Ninth State?
Like the African Empire of Marcus Garvey and the Pan-African Congress of Dr. DuBois, it may fail for want of practical and adequate leans and competent leadership, but the underlying idea will live on and on until some way, some time, it will find the long hoped for fulfilment.
The pilgrim spirit surges in the soul of every self-conscious group, from the days of Abraham, the Father of the Faithful, to the time of Joseph Smith, the inspirator of the Latter Day Saints. Such groups are urged on by the whispering of the inner voice. "Get thee out from among them unto a land which I will show thee." Oppressed peoples always seek a promised land, the quest of which has contributed chiefly to the progress of civilization.
In seeking to escape from the ills of his present lot, the simple souled Negro folk, being deficient in the energy and enterprise to plan and plant a new country, longed for a far away homeland in the sky. But ever and anon some daring, restless spirit has sought to lead his people to a country where they would be arbiter of their own fortune, free from the oppressive weight of the white overlordship which hangs like a pall over his spirit. The sundry vague and vain attempts of the back to Africa movement show plainly that the people who are responsive to such appeal seek a country where there is nothing above their racial aspirations except the blue sky. Marcus Garvey and W. E. B. DuBois were alike obsessed by this ideal. The impossible African Empire of Garvey and the Pan-African Congress of DuBois pointed in the same direction and to the same goal. The same ideal lies dominant in the breast of every Negro who has a thinking mind and who dares to dream.

WE DREAM OF AN EMPIRE
Complete self-expression is the dominant urge of every self-respecting and energetic racial group. Self-determination was not merely the idle mechanism of the mind of Woodrow Wilson but awakens a dominant cord in the mind of the heavily laden and overborne racial groups the world over. This spirit is plainly evinced on the part of Negroes whenever any marked measure of success attends any distinctive Negro enterprise. Whenever a handful of adventuresome Negroes attempt to develop a town or even a village, the whole grace swells with pride over the achievement. The whole race only a few years ago was delighted to make a little journey to Tuskegee, because one Negro had shown what was possible for Negro genius by way of developing its own vine and fig tree.
Mound Bayou, Miss., and Boley,'Okla. aroused high hopes and expectations of all whose eyes longed to see a Negro city. A monument might be built to McCabe who forty years ago had a dream of making Oklahoma a Negro state. Even such small enterprises as a successful watering resort swells the heart with pride. Idle Wild, Michigan, and Highland Beach, Md, have become the summer capitals of Negro social aspirations and pretensions. All these things show how earnestly we all long for political, economic and social structure built upon our own foundation. Liberia and Hayt, in their day of better promise, quickened the hopes and imagination of every Negro in the world. Today Abbsinia is the focus of the race's political hope.

WANTS TO EXPRESS
HIS RACIAL SOUL
Sensing the impossibility of the unlikelihood of being able to secure equality of opportunity and privilege under the Nordic regime, the Negro prays and hopes for a land somewhere where he may express his racial soul to his heart's content.
It is this blind, half conscious feeling that lies back of this purpose to establish the Fortynn-ninth State. While I am not impressed with the feasibility of the movement in its present form, I am tremendously impressed with the genuineness and sincerity of the young men in whose minds such a far reaching idea finds lodgement. Like the African Empire of Marcus Garvey and the Pan-African Congress of Dr. DuBois, it may fail for want of practical and adequate leans and competent leadership, but the underlying idea will live on and on until some way, some time, it will find the long hoped for fulfilment.
It might not be in the form of a Fortynn-ninth State or of a city built with hands. It may take the form of a more spiritual and cultural imperium in imperio. Differentiation rather than integration may prove the key-note to the solution of the race problem. It may not be by spatial separation but by specialty of racial contributions to the equation of civilization and culture, that the races may look for and find their destined end or ways. In the meantime all honor to the little group of Chicago valiants who dare feel that they can blaze the way for the establishment of a Negro state just as the Letter Day Saints built up a religious commonwealth in the heart of the Rocky Mountains two generations ago.

GOOD LUCK TO
THOSE WHO DARE!
The Negro race, like all other races, is divided into the hesitant and the timid, and the heroic and the adventurous spirits. The prudent and the overcautious will raise the cry of the lion of segregation which stands in the way. But it is a safe wager that should the adventure be attempted and should meet with any likely degree of success, the whole race would welcome the enterprise as a God-sent boom to its flagging spirit.
The Jew is still hoping for a Jewish State which shall fulfil the racial aspiration of the chosen of Abraham. If the idea of a self-sufficing community will continue to haunt Negro thought, in the fullness of time, there will doubtless rise up a leadership with the required energy, enterprise, initiative, and race enthusiasm to establish and maintain a Negro community, whether political or spiritual and culture, that shall challenge the imagination of the Negro peoples and the admiration of mankind.

Federal News Notes
by LAURENCE J. W. HAYES
I (with Feltham) love the man that is modestly valiant; that stirs not until he needs must, and then to purpose. An continued patience I commend not.
William L. (Bureau of Fisheries) Jackson, a young man who in my humble opinion is the personification of modest valiance, will conduct this column during my absence.
The regular editor of this column will return to Washington on July 23.
George H. Rycraw, chief messenger of the Coast and Geodetic Survey division in the Department of Commerce, who—too—is the type of man mentioned in my topic sentence is not only a past commander of one of the local posts of the American Legion and president of Lodge No 20 of the American Federation of Government Employees but is also chairman of the general organization contact committee of the New Negro Alliance, delivered an address last week over the local radio stations as a guest speaker of Claude Babcock, the national president of the American Federation of Government Employees.
The address was to my mind $s_0$ exceptionally good that I am reproducing it en toto this week.
The address with all pertinent information follows:
"The acid test of the Civil Service merit system is the degree of fair treatment accorded employees farthest down; likewise the real test of an organization composed of federal employees is the manner in which that organization interests itself in behalf of employees farthest down and in seeing that they are given every right to all positions under the classified service they may prove themselves qualified to fill.
"Hundreds of colored employees have qualified in Civil Service examinations for positions in the professional, sub-professional, clerical administrative and fiscal services, but notwithstanding more than ninety-five per cent of them are now employed in one service, the custodial, because of the failure of administrative officials to rigidly observe the rules of the merit system. After all the government payroll is supported by tax payers of all the various racial groups, and as such no one racial group should be discriminated against or regarded as a special problem. The Negro has long since proved by his loyalty as a citizen his eligibility for precisely the same treatment that is accorded other racial groups and he will contend for nothing less."
"Mrs. Roosevelt, in addressing the recent conference on Negro Education declared: I think the day of selfishness is over, the day to work together has come regardless of race, creed or color. No one group can go ahead alone; we go ahead together or we go down together.' I think this is a splendid challenge to our 'Government family,' for after all they are the ones in their several departments who can check the discriminations I have just referred to, and do their utmost in seeing that they are eradicated. It doesn't require a great deal of effort to serve those at the top, but it does however, require sacrifice to leave the beaten path to serve the employees farthest down who are qualified for elevation. Of all the various forms of discrimination, undoubtedly that which is based on race is the most reprehensible.
"In the operation of the so-called Economy Law, the Negro worker was hardest hit because he was already receiving less than a living wage. Section 213 commonly known as the marital provision, was rigidly enforced where smaller salaried employees and colored people were concerned, while it is an open secret that husbands and wives in the upper brackets and the so-called key positions have been retained. There is no justice in such distorted interpretation."
"The observations which I have just made do not spring from pessimism or discouragement as to the future of the Negro in Civil Service; on the contrary, I believe the future is brighter for him. I am confident the American Federation of Government Employees will meet the issue squarely, and do its utmost towards eradicating all forms of racial proscriptions which nullify and make mockery of our merit system, and I believe Federal employees are willing to make their contribution towards the new day, which Mr. Tugwell, Assistant Secretary of Agriculture, visioned in an address at Oberlin College in which he declared: 'We are trying to turn over to you a social and economic organization in which you will each have your fair chance, in which the brutalities of human life may be softened and civilized to a degree which will permit people to live more humanely and will give creative intelligence its necessary place in our system of social management.'"

Hi-De-Ho-Everyone! This is your favorite columnists' greeting you from the Washington Tribune office in time for some advice from Winchell. Well, here goes—Everyone is one wondering if Oswald Wines and Desiree Hall will make it throughout the summer. Margaret Dickerson left fifty-one cards home and only brought the ace of spades with her to the water-Front. John Johnson intends to become a big boxer but he is too weak. Ask Elizabeth Stewart of Morris Road. Chester (Chick) Thomas has given Bea Smith the slip. Joe Reed was seen escorting Nellie to the movies. Where was Mary Davis
They kiss anywhere! George Brown and Miss Myrtle Hatton. Why does Joe B. visit the Anacostia tennis courts so often? It seems as though Irving Dudley has learned the technical points in hitting a ball. For further reference visit the Anacostia courts. Bob wants to know why Wesley Smith can't stay off N Street? Over in Anacostia—Margaret (Vicky-Hawkins and Georgette Garrison seem to argue quite frequently over a certain gentleman (Thomas Stone). What a-man? Ruth Body doesn't like publicity so much. Fish Lee selldom leaves home at night. Is he bashful? Gwendolyn Frye has a new boy friend. "Steamboat."
Why is it that Ruth Lucas is known as the sweetheart of Third and Eye? Ask "Moose." Sherlock White and Johnny Marshall. Guess who won a contest recently! B. Jefferson received two votes more than Plummer's monkey. We would like to know why Bus W. ran home after "breaking loose" Wednesday night? Why is it Aloyisus C. does not visit J. Allen of Eye Street anymore? Fannie Mae Hynson explain your friend's action Saturday night (Bus W.) You know what we mean! A piece of advice to one of our loyal readers (Annie Smith). Take our advice and hold on to "Pick" Ford because school is closed and most all of your girl friends will swarm about him. (P. S.—For any advice send us a line).
What caused the split between Robert Barneg and Florence Ford? It couldn't have been Raymond J. the cab driver? Earl Bailey must have a free taxicab for girls. We notice that he always "brings 'em back alive." Why did Theodore Hall push a baby carriage down Third Street the other night? The "Hawkeye" (Wayman)Noble) covers the Plaza, Meridian Park and the Reservoir. So watch your steps all yourse gals and boys! Let's look in on the Suburban Gardens. George Jackson, happy, diminutive gentleman finds time to explore the nooks and not
enough time to visit Linden Street. Ella Mae Fuller visits the park quite frequently. Bob Jacktall and handsome (at least Hortense Robinson) thinks so.
Why does Edward Culpeper love to hang around Seventh and Tea Streets? Is he trying to take weak-knees place? Watch for the appearance of Way Noble's Cuban Boys soon to be in Washington. For further info see Joe Pickett, 603 Gardent Street, Northwest. Well I will be seeing you. Until next week. Adios!

MELVIN CHISUM SAYS FORE
MAN HAS FAILED THE RACE
(Associated Negro Press)
According to Melvin Chisum, investigator in an expose, Dr. Clarke Foreman, economic advisor on Negro affairs in the Department of the Interior, has betrayed his trust and has done nothing to help the colored race which he was supposed to do. Mr. Chisum says he turned over to Dr. Foreman a series of projects which he said would have meant thousands of dollars to colored workers, contractors, administrators, etc., but after almost a year in office, none of these have been recommended.

BEAUTY HINTS
By NINA TEMPLE
THE DOUBLE CHIN
A double chin destroys the beauty of any face no matter how otherwise charming it may be. A quick and sure cure is to tie the face up every night with a rubber strap after massaging the chin with the white of one egg mixed with a little vinegar.
LUMBAGO
In man's experience the most distressing disease is Lumbago. The Constant Stabbing Pains and Stiffness in the Lower Spine restrict his movements. Destroy his Strength, Energy, Vitality and MANHOOD, and bring on premature old age. The disease is known to resist all forms of treatments, except Osteopathy. Osteopathic Manipulation has proven itself an Infallible Remedy for Lumbago—irrespective of its cause.

An Apology and an Explanation
The members of Beta Chapter of Phi Delta Kappa sincerely regret the inconvenience to which their guests were subjected on Friday evening, June 15 at Suburban Gardens.
The contract which was signed by Mr. James Vance called for the rental of the pavilion until one thirty o'clock. At 11:15 however, to the surprise of both the sorors and their guests, notice was given that the park would close at the regular hour, eleven-thirty.
Mr. Vance, who knew that it was the responsibility of his organization to obtain the police permit always required in order to extend the closing hour of the park neglected to make the request in time.
Captain Marks of the Eleventh Precinct, when interviewed, stated that Mr. Vance has known for one year the proper procedure in the application for such permits.
Despite the disappointment in not being able to remain at the park the Sorority wishes to thank those friends who finished the evening at the Colonnade and thereby turned what tended to be a most unsatisfactory situation into a pleasant evening.

With the mercury, soaring these days, the capital city folks are seeking the cool breezes either in some suburban place or on the seashore. The nearby beaches had overflow crowds last Sunday, as the people tried to escape the intense heat at least for the day.
Chalcedony Inn, the beautiful, cool suburban club is furnishing an ideal place for social gatherings. Each week we find either a club or a group of people entertaining there. Last week the affair given by Mrs. Frances Lattimore and Miss Fannie Howard was quite nice. Large numbers of Baltimoreans and Washingtonians as well as Philadelphiaans were present—and did they have fun—"nuff sed."
Saturday afternoon and a portion of the evening the choir of St. Luke's P.E. Church held their annual picnic at Chalcedony Inn. A most enjoyable time was spent on the spacious lawn and grounds surrounding the place.

The club officers are Mabel Cook, president; Mary Scott, vice-president; Gertrude Harrison, secretary, and Beulah Ranrey, treasurer.
June weddings have been very popular. With the Marshall-Ryan and the Tignor-Duncan unions of last Saturday and the Carson-Williams union of this Saturday—many pocketbooks have been depleted. However, we all wish the newlyweds much success and many happy returns of the day.

Approximately 450 members of the upper cresst of Washington society were on hand to offer their wishes to the newly-wed Miss Julia Adrienne. Marshall, popular local school teacher and instructor in dance, and Frank Patrick Ryan, of New York City, at the residence of the former, 2710 P Street, Northwest, Saturday evening.
Reverend Walter H. Brooks, pastor of the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church, officiated at the ceremonies. The wedding took place only a few months before the thirty-ninth anniversary of the bride's mother to the late Dr. Charles Marshall, by the same clergyman. The marriage of Miss Marshall to Mr. Ryan culminated a very brief romance. The pair met during a visit of the bride to New York during her Easter school recess. A rapid-fire courtship ensued and was climaxed by a speedy nuptial. Miss Lillian Washington, a close friend of the bride, was bride's maid. Richard Ryan, brother of the groom, acted as best man.
Although there were nearly 500 acquaintances to pass in the receiving line, at the wedding reception, there were less than a hundred in attendance at the ceremonies proper. Eighty-six intimate friends viewed the actual wedding of the pair.
Relatives of Mrs. Ryan told the Tribune that the couple will return to the city in the fall, following their honeymoon in Corona, N.-Y. They will make their residence in Washington, the groom having already made application to be transferred from the postal service of the metropolis to this city.

The Younger Set
By MORRIS MURRAY and JAMES R. WOOD
You should have been on the picnic given by The Best Yets, last Saturday. The party left Thelma King's home in private autos, and arrived at the beach safe and sound. Imagine that. The car in which yours truly was in, caught on fire. Rodney Savoy barely escaped being branded. We had to stop in Annapolis where the fire was put out with 'the aid of some passersby. The ole smoke wagon had everyone singing "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes."*** Yvonne Mitchell happened to be the only skoit in the car when the calamity came. Pauline Murray had to endure the day without the assistance of Talmadge Brown.
Why did she not ask him to go earlier? The boys grabbed the girls' lunches and scrammed to the beach where a lovely repast was served. One little fellow's vocabulary was so strong that it shocked a certain goil's modesty (or has she any).*** The trip back was swell. Who said, "Are you telling im"? There were only about six stops for car trouble. A. L. was trying to portray a scene from "It Happened One Night," but failed to stop motorists.*** Charles Branch, alias Peck's bad boy, made a wild dash for the girls' dressing room at Sparrow's Beach, and was Grace Sears embarrassed? He also favored the candy stand by taking a piece of candy at the expense of the stand.*** Rhoda Savoy went to Eliza's party with one boy and walked home with another. She was seen in the rear seat of an automobile laying her racket with Horace Randolph and Halley Tayler.*** Freddie Davidson got slightly high, and had to be carried to Rosale Reid's house to be put back on his feet again.*** Halley Tayler was caught by Gradma as he was about to enter the ice box at a party, last week.*** Earle Hyman went car riding with his ole lady at the beach and had to walk back. Next time B. Blackburn should carry her roller skates.*** Muriel Cargill has gone to Baltimore to visit her father for the summer.
Who is that very cute girl on First Street? Why, it's Marie Dickson, son. Watch out kid, you are being considered, Ketch on ?** The Pontiacs, headed by their secret six, kicked four of its members out of the club recently. The unfortunate lads are Manuel Brown, Buster Brown, Raymond Lewis and Albert Raymond. Harvey Earley was also exiled, but after winning the drill the secret six decided that it wouldn't be a bad idea to let him linger on .** It seems as though Jean Taylor is getting recognition at last. A theatre manager from Alexandria, Va., made a trip down to the old community house (Dunbar) to see about putting Jean and the girls in a show. I learned that he is trying to get Placide and Thelma also. Well here's luck.*** Harriett Pelham and Elizar Amos could tell us what kind of swimming togs were you wearing when taking that private swim at the senior picnic? We have on good authority that youse were swimming with your favorite Tarzans, and at the same time giving the poor fish a treat: Naughty; Naughty;*** What popular girl is trying to make a pick up out of her former boy friend? *** Yours truly would like for all youse gals and boys to drop in on Ruth Alexander on Q Street and pay a visit. It's mighty tough to be kept in these hot days.
One Held, Two Sought for Criminal Assault

FORCED TO SLEEP IN STATION WHEN OUSTED FROM BUS
Claiming that he was put off of a Nevin bus at St. Louis after he had bought a ticket to Memphis, Tenn., Clarence Austin, 5580 Eastern Avenue, Northeast, fitted suit against the Nevin Atlantic Lines, 1201 New York Avenue, for $5,000 last week.
In his petition filed in the District Supreme Court through the law firm of Dobbins and Branson, Austin stated that on October 18, 1933, he purchased a ticket here in Washington to Memphis and return at $35. He was to attend the funeral of a relative in that city. When the bus reached St. Louis, Mo., Austin says he was put off and told by an agent of the company that the Nevin Lines did not extend beyond that point and that he would have to buy a ticket on another line in order to complete his trip
Austin says he was without funds and was forced to spend the night in a station. After a wait of a day and a half he received enough money to continue his trip. As a result of sleeping out he claims he contracted a severe cold and rheumatism which has affected his legs.

INSULT LAID TO PEOPLE'S AGENT BY WOMAN DENIED
Mrs. Katherine Rush Says White Insurance Inspector Cursed Her
Assert that an instructor of the People's Life Insurance Company became enraged and told her that he "was not going to pay her a damned cent," Mrs. Katherine Rush, 1017 Sixth Street, Northeast, filed a protest with O. R. Hoover, superintendent of the District branch of the company, early this week.
The inspector, Arthur W. Allnutt, white, denied using the language but admitted that he told her she could not expect, to be paid on a sick claim. Both he and Mrs. Rush agreed that she was out of bed when he came to the house.
Cites Clause
In an interview with Hoover the Tribune was told that the company exercised its right to refuse to honor claims when the policyholder was not confined to bed on the occasion of the inspector's visit. He declared that such a clause was included in the contract with Mrs. Rush and with all clients of the company. Mrs. Rush stated that she was aware of this provision, and that she told the company agent when he approached her that she had gotten out of bed, Sunday. Her condition was improved to such an extent as to permit her to get up, she stated. Mrs. Rush insisted, however, that the week on which she sought payment was closed Saturday.
Claim is Paid
Hoover, in his conversation with a Tribune representative, declared that he had investigated the complaint, and although Allnutt denied that he had insulted the woman, the superintendent ordered payment of Mrs. Rush's claim.

Two efforts to commit suicide by taking poison were thwarted by friends of Mary Allen, 24, 1224 Fourth Street, Northwest, Monday. Despondent and disgusted, the woman first attempted to end her life by drinking iodine, but had the bottle knocked from her hand by Bertha Bryant, of the same address.
A few minutes later she tried again by grabbing a bottle of carbolic acid which she attempted to drink. This time Naomi Meyer, of the Fourth Street address, came to the rescue by taking the bottle from her. She was taken to Emergency Hospital after the second attempt and treated for poison. Her condition was undetermined.

DISCRIMINATION IN POSTOFFICE HIT BY SPEAKERS
Fifty New Members Taken in at Meeting of Mu-So-Lit Club
A program commemorating the nineteenth anniversary of the District of Columbia Branch of the National Alliance of Postal Employees was held at the Mu-So-Lit Club Saturday evening at which speakers of prominence and national officers of the organization took part.
Gilbert Hyatt, white, legislative representative of the Federation of Post Office Clerks, delivered the principal speech in which he reviewed the activities of the organization he represented, and its accomplishments during the session of Congress that ended last week. Mr. Hyatt spoke in place of Representative Clyde Kelley of Pennsylvania, who sent last minute news saying that he could not attend the meeting for reason of an engagement he could not prevent.
O'Mahoney Praised
Mr. Hyatt spoke at length and explained what had been done in bringing to the attention of members of both Houses of Congress the need for a more equitable distribution of work among substitute and permanent postal employers, adding that the devastating effect of the Economy Act had been somewhat "ameliorated by the revision of the Act and the passage of the Independent Offices bill." He praised Senator O'Mahoney, of Wyoming and Representative Mead of New York, chairman of the Post Office Committee, for their "tireless and conscientious efforts on behalf of the postal employees of the country," adding that without their support it would have been indeed a dark day for the Federal employees of the country, and especially for those in the Post Office Department.
Hits Discrimination
In the course of his speech, Mr. Hyatt exhorted the large audience of postal employees and civic leaders to be ever watchful for discrimination and inequalities. He said that the exploitation of any group because of color or degree was fundamentally wrong "and against the democratic principle upon which the country is founded."
Jerry O. Gilliam, president of the Alliance, who came from Norfolk to attend the celebration, said that "our group is undergoing a painless extraction from the government service and is also being denied an equal opportunity to share in meritorious promotion. The Alliance is therefore making an urgent appeal to all the members of the Negro group in the postal service to join in this great movement. There is no other course left open to us if we are to keep the gates of the service open and in keeping with the ideals of our country to give equal opportunity to all men and women regardless of race, color or creed." Fifty new members were taken

to enlist the support and cooperation
of the four hundred colored
employees in the postal service in
this city.
Other speakers on the program
were Dr. William J. Thompkins,
recorder of deeds, Thomas H. R.
Clarke, prominent realtor, and F.

Washington Tribune.
Clarke pointed out that Negro
representation in the government
departments had been reduced
from 2,000 to less than 200 in the
past few years.
Bomar Present
Present at the affair were also Thomas P. Bomar, district president, which comprises Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, and the District of Columbia; while Emory Bryant, retired postal employee, formerly assistant chief clerk attached to the Second Postmaster General's office, was chairman of activities.
Capt. C. C. H. Davis, president of the branch, acted as master of ceremonies.
Woman Shot Three Times By CommonL-Law Mate

EDUCATORS PLAN EXPERIMENT IN CHARACTER
Four Schools in Colored Divisions to Adopt Plan in Fall
Greater individualization in instruction will be one of the important improvements sought in classroom instruction in the character education experiment which is being planned for the public schools of Washington next September. In the colored schools the experiment will be held at Armstrong Technical High, Randall Junior High, Margaret Murray Washington Vocational and the Morgan Elementary School. Classes are being held at Franklin Administration Building daily by leading educators from different sections of the country for the benefit of school officers. Garnet C. Wilkinson, superintendent of schools, is a regular attendant at the classes which will last three weeks.
Miss Bertie Backus, white, assistant superintendent of schools is in charge of character education. More complete knowledge regarding individual children will be sought as a basis of adapting the instruction more completely to the varying needs of boys and girls. In addition, observation of behavior traits of boys and girls will be made and the results of those observations recorded in order that desirable social traits of children may be established and anti-social traits eliminated.
Dr. Wood. Speaker
The ways and means of securing increased individualization of instruction under present school conditions, as well as the methods of recording more complete information regarding individual children were the subjects of discussion at the institute, Tuesday afternoon June 26, led by Dr. Ben D. Wood of Columbia University. The various problems involved in individualization of instruction were discussed in relation to elementary schools, vocational schools, junior high schools, and senior high schools. Dr. Wood showed lantern slides of various cumulative record cards to illustrate the means of recording not only the progress of pupils in subject matter, but likewise their progress in the improvement of behavior traits.
Attempted Police Escape Ends in Two-Story Fall

Hall, corresponding secretary, who gave vivid comment on the civic activities of Dr. Thompkins in Kansas City. Mo. Dr. Thompkins urged his hearers to promote a greater civic consciousness and to use a more vigilant method in order to get action on the many things to which the citizens are entitled. He deplored the condition of this city's bad health record and said that the alarming rate of tuberculosis among Negroes here is due to the fact that Negro physicians and nurses are not employed in the Health Department.
He urged the Federation to take vigilant steps to see that adequate representation be given Negroes not only in the Health Department but in all departments of the local government. He recommended the establishment of a vigilant committee in the federation. Offering another resolution to the rapidly increasing mortality rate in the District of Columbia, he suggested that the federation work toward the establishment of Well Baby Stations in all sections of the city.
A resolution presented by Howard D. Woodson in which the federation is to sponsor a membership drive among the member associations was passed. Mrs. C. Simpson was appointed chairman of the special committee and one member from each civic association is to be selected for this committee.
To Probe Negro Bar
The committee on public works was instructed to make an investigation of alleged discrimination in EWA against Negro truck owners. It was reported that there are 400 white drivers and truck owners and 54 colored. Recently when it was necessary to reduce the number of drivers, all of the colored drivers and truck owners were discharged and a large number of the whites were retained.
Urges Negro Physicians
The Federation adopted a resolution in which was a request that Negro physicians and nurses be employed at Gallinger Hospital and Tuberculosis Hospital and that branches of Emergency Hospital and Clinic be established in the far northeastern and Anacostia sections of the District of Columbia.
The following committee was appointed to press the matter: George Beason, chairman; Dr. F. O. Williston, B. T. Montgomery, Walter L. Robertson, S. W. Scott and Charles Williams.
New Fire Equipment

Johnson, Southwest Civic Association, read a resolution in which was requested endorsement by the federation of the program of his association in their efforts to get new equipment for No. 4 and No. 13 fire engine companies. Dr. Johnson-said that on July 1, 1934, $23,000 will be available for new fire equipment and on account of the age of the equipment in the above companies it is desired that the equipment be sent to this section.
