THE FOUR MEN
When President Roosevelt met President Vincent, of Haiti, the two drank to each other's health, as the photograph shows. The two are seen at the Union Club.

EX-MASONIC CALLS NO.4 HEADWAIVES EQUIPMENT HEARING PATHETIC
Attorneys for Frank D. McKinney, past grand master of the Most Worshipful Acacia Grand Lodge of Masons, F.A.A.M., charged with embezzling $916.84 of the order's funds, waived a hearing when the case was called in Police Court Friday morning.

WELLS ENTERS NOT GUILTY PLEA
Well Known Police Character and Companion Released Under Bond
Harry (Weak Knees) Wells, well known in police circles and at one time reputed numbers baron, pleaded not guilty when arraigned in the District Supreme Court Friday on a charge of distributing counterfeit money.
Wells was released under a bond of $2,500 while a companion, Samuel Stevenson, who was also arrested with him, was placed under a bond of $1,500.
The pair was arrested by Federal agents last month on suspicion of distributing $5 and $10 spurious bank notes. They were arrested on Bladensburg Road where the money was said to have been passed.
Government agents expressed the opinion that Wells and Stevenson are "passers" for a ring of white counterfeiters.
Charles E. Schrom, chief engineer of the District Fire Department was urged in a letter this week by Dr. George L. Johnson, chairman of the public service committee of the Southwest Civic Association, to assign the two new hose wagons and new pumping engine which the Fire Department will purchase, to the Southwest section. Dr. Johnson pointed out that the Southwest Civic Association fought shoulder to soulder with Fire Department officials in urging Congress to authorize the apparatus, and stated that the records show that the chief engineer and the superintendent of machinery of the Fire Department and the Southwest Civic Association were the only forces which testified before both houses of Congress for the equipment.
$23,500 Available
The sum of $23,500 was made available on July 1 for the purchase of the equipment.
A vigorous demand by the civic body last month that the new apparatus be assigned to No. 4 and No. 13 engine companies, after President Roosevelt had authorized the equipment, brought a noncommittal response from Commissioner Melvin C. Hazen, who has jurisdiction over the Fire Department. Hazen said he would take
MUNICIPAL JUDGE STILL UNCERTAIN
Friends of Scott Said to be Waging Quiet Fight for Appointment
Judge James A. Cobb continues to hear cases in the Municipal Court while Democrats here are wondering who will succeed him on the bench.
Several names have been mentioned as likely successors, but so far the President has failed to name the man. Armond W. Scott was the first name recommended to the President by the Attorney General, but his selection brought forth such a howl of protest from the local bar association that Mr. Roosevelt sent the name back.
Since then the name of R. R. Horner has been frequently heard in connection with the post. Others who also are said to be aspirants are Emory B. Smith and Williams Houston. In the meantime Judge Cobb received the backing of the white bar groups for reappointment.
It is understood that Scott's candidacy is being quietly waged by several prominent Democrats and it is said he still has a chance to be appointed.

Sheriff "Recognizes" No One in Crowd That Murderd Youth
BASTROP, La.—The body of a 26-year-old youth was cut down from an oak tree in the public square, Tuesday.
Sheriff J. F. Carpenter said he recognized no member of the mob which stormed parish prison Monday night. District Attorney F. W. Hawthorne, who told the mob he sympathized with its attitude, would not say what action he planned.
The man, Andrew McCloud, was suspected of an attempt to attack a white girl Saturday. The mob began forming at nightfall and within a few hours numbered 3,000. It tore down a telephone pole and used it to batter locks from four doors.
Throat Cut
Limp from a beating and blood gushing from a knife wound in his neck. McCloud was dragged out with a noose already around his neck. He was lifted to the top of an auto, the free end of the rope tied to a limb, and the car driven from under him.
McCloud was arrested Sunday, some hours after a white girl reported an attempted attack 25 miles away Saturday night. She and her escort were returning to Bastrop from a dance when their car ran into a ditch. She started afoot to a filling station. A man stepped out of the night and started to drag her into a woods. Before he could get her off the road a car approached, frightening him away. McCloud was said by authorities to have confessed.

JOHN P. DAVIS
the House of Representatives in the State Capitol here Monday.
Before three hundred hostile white cotton gin owners, appalled at the spectacle of a Negro in their midst, John P. Davis, executive secretary of the Joint Committee on National Recovery, battled for the rights of Negro workers in Oklahoma cotton gins who would be affected by the cotton ginning marketing agreement. The public hearing to consider the marketing agreement was a state hearing conducted by the Agricultural Adjustment Administration.
Following out the contention which he had made at the general hearing in Washington last May, Davis vigorously protested the attempt of the Oklahoma Cotton Ginners Association to secure the benefits of a government marketing agreement while it sought to evade responsibility for a code of fair compensation under the NRA which would give some aid to labor conditions of the thousands of Negro workers in Oklahoma cot- (Continued on page 2)

Dean Houston Answers His Critics in Famous Crawford Murder Case
Says Crawford Did Not Get Into the Mess to Raise Constitutional Issues
MAN UNWILLING TO GAMBLE WITH LIFE
Says Client Did Not Want to Appeal. It was His Case and Life
Dean Charles Houston, of the Howard Law School and chief counsel in the now famous Crawford case, in the following article answers Miss Helen Boardman and Miss Martha Guening, both white, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People investigators, who recently criticised Mr. Houston for the manner in which he conducted the case.
The two white women wrote an article in The Nation last month stating that Houston "backed down" in the case. In the same magazine for this month Attorney Houston defends his action. The article is by Attorney Houston and Attorney Leon A. Ransom and follows:
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People always insists that cases tentatively proposed to it satisfy two tests before it will handle them: (1) Does the case involve principles on the individual because he is a Negro? (2) Does the case involve principles on policies affecting Negroes generally? It entered the George Crawford case on this basis. It drew to Crawford's arrest in Boston on January 12, 1933, certain rumors had gained currency in Virginia that Crawford was not the real murderer of Mrs. Agnes Boeing Isley and Mrs. Mina Buckner in Middleburg on January 18, 1932, but that she was the real murderer of a white man. When the press reported that Crawford had been arrested in Boston and was held for return to Virginia, the national office of the N.A.A.C. repaired the office of the Boston president of the Boston branch of the association, to investigate.
The report from Boston on January 20 was that Crawford denied all guilt, that he had a complete alibi; that he had come to Boston from Virginia about September 6, 1931, and had not been out of the city since that time. He was accused of the murders; that the Virginia authorities were on their way to take Crawford back and that Mr. Wilson was going to reasult. Rendition hearings were begun before S. D. Bacalupo, Assistant Attorney General, who was charged with Crawford being represented by Mr. Wilson and J. Weston Allen, former Attorney-General of Massachusetts. The national office sent Helen Boardman, who had made several noteworthy investigative reports, to the primary assignment was to get the temper of Loudoun County, in which Middleburg was located, and determine the risk of a lynching if Crawford was returned. Misa Boardman incidentally picked up certain information casting doubt on Crawford's guilt. The report this back to the national office.
Basing its action on the Boston alibi, which was supported by witnesses, Miss Boardman's report, and the further story that he was a burglar in Virginia injustice—having been sentenced in Richmond about 1925, so the story went, to nine years in the penitentiary for receiving some carrion, and he was sentenced to fine in good faith released its public proclaiming Crawford's innocence of the Middleburg murders and calling on its friends to support its fight to prevent Crawford's return to Virginia. The Governor of Massachusetts to return Crawford to Virginia, the writ of habeas corpus issued by Judge Lowell, and the subsequent proceedings in the federal courts are well known and need to be examined. The United States Supreme Court refused to hear the case, all the energies of the association and counsel were directed to ward keeping Crawford in Massachusetts. The actions could be started in Virginia, and before counsel had free access to Crawford to check with him the various facts discovered. By that time the case had achieved its goal, and the association had become committed to it beyond any possibility of withdrawal.
When counsel began to investigate the case in Virginia and check their investigations against Crawford's stole and the Bosson's beep, he began to appear. No criticism whatever is made or intended of the conduct of the case in Boston. Messas. Wilson and Allen made a decided, able bid for Crawford with the assistance of a lawyer, which continued on page 31.

SCOTTSBORO BOYS GRANTED STAY BY ALABAMA COURT Case Cannot be Taken Up Until October 1 in Regular Session
MONTGOMERY, Ala.—A stay of execution was granted to Heywood Patterson and Clarence Norris, two of the nine boys under sentence of death in the infamous Scottboro case. The stay was granted Saturday by the Alabama Supreme Court on receipt of an application for rehearing for the condemned men.
The court in confirming the sentences on June 28 had fixed August 31 as the date of execution, but on receipt of the application for rehearings the sentences were stayed, as the court is in recess.
To Be Heard October 1
Unless a special session of the court is called, the matter cannot be taken up until October 1, when the tribunal reconvenes in regular session. With the application for a rehearing was a statement that the case would be appealed to the United States Supreme Court in event the Alabama high tribunal again confirmed the sentences.
Time Point Raised
In the Patterson case in which the court sustained a motion of attorney General Thomas E. Knight, Jr., to strike out the bill of exceptions, holding that the time limit had expired before the appeal was filed, the attorney for the men raised the point that the time should have been calculated from December 6, 1933, the date of sentence, instead of December 1, the date of conviction.
Both boys were convicted in December of last year in Morgan County Circuit Court of charges of attacking Victoria Price, white, a board a Southern Railway freight train in Jackson County on March 25, 1931. It was Patterson's third conviction, and Norris's second on the charge.
Ruby Bates, white, who testified at the first hearing that she was attacked by the boys, denied it at a later trial.

Dr. Mordecai Johnson president of Howard University, Mrs. Mary Church Terrrell and J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler of the Elks, are among many of the prominent persons who were identified with Beale Street, Memphis, Tenn, in one way or another in early youth, according to the new novel, Beale Street, by George W. W. Lee.
Dr. Johnson was at one time a waiter in one of the street's restaurants.
The author, Mr. Lee, who has been a resident of the famous thoroughfare for years, served as lieutenant in the war and has been active in American Legion circles. It is his first book.
The book is non-fiction and deals with the famous characters of the street who have become nationally known in music and other fields.
URGES CHURCH TO COMBINE FORCES WITH N.A.A.C.P.
URGES CHURCH TO COMBINE FORCES WITH N.A.A.C.P.
Speaker Outlines Program at 25th Annual Meeting of Association
OKLAHOMA CITY—Declaring that "the N.A.A.C.P. and the Negro Church both are led on by visions so similar and objectives so identical that it is a marvel to me that no one has seriously studied and boldly proclaimed the mutual aid that each can lend the other, due to their interpenetrations," the Rev. J. Raymond Henderson, pastor of Wheat Street Baptist Church of Atlanta, stirred the large audience at the Friday night session of the 25th annual conference of the association where he presented the 20th Spinning medal to Dean W. T. B. Williams, of Tuskegee Institute.
Calling for "a frankness of understanding which shall bring these two forces together with power so irresistible as to greatly accelerate our progress as an oppressed minority group in a hostile and prejudiced society," Rev. Mr. Henderson urged the association "to lay the foundation to its future support by interpreting its own objectives as truly religious and thus claim the support which religion imparts to its ideals. By so doing, the association will unconsciously render a great service to the Negro church, and will rescue its religion from priestliness. "The chief trouble with all re-
J. T.—Where must I go for better treatment and more contentment?
Ans.: The State of OKLAHOMA would appeal to you more than any state in the union. You will meet up with a different type of people who will make your whole life seem new and interesting again.
T. G.—Was anyone the cause of my daughter's death?
Ans.: No one was responsible for her death. She was drowned and no one PUSHED her into the water. She was not a good swimmer and could not help the misfortune.
L. M. S.—Why has my life been so full of sorrow? I have always tried to do the right thing. Are there any happy days for me?
Ans: Plenty of happy days and good times ahead for you. I see your HUSBAND and your SON steadily employed this summer. This will make a change in your life for you will be able to have the things you want.
W. R. R.—The girl that I love does she love me or the boy that I think she is in love with?
Ans: No she loves you. You had better not tell her that you love her until you are ready to see the preacher for she is waiting for the opportunity to MARRY you. You and she should be happy together.
M. V. S.—Will my husband stop his drinking or what will happen to him?
Ans.: He is determined to drink every drop that he can get his hands on and he is not going to stop until he makes himself SICK over it. After a few uncomfortable sick days he will soon learn that it is best to let it alone un-
THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. THURSDAY. JULY 12. 1934
The life of W. C. Handy, author of "Beale Street Blues" and "St. Louis Blues" is graphically told. Beale Street is not simply or even primarily, a book about blues or even about Negro music. Just as the Negro population of Beale Street epitomizes, to some extent, the urban Negro, so its story, the story of one of the most famous streets in the world, is the story of the urban Negro's progress. As Roll, Jordan, Roll tells the story of the Southern plantation Negro, so Beale Street pictures the life of the Negro who, casting himself free from the protection and domination of the white man, has gone to the city and built a unique and independent racial life there. Beale Street will undoubtedly take its place as the season's most important revelation of American Negro life just as Roll, Jordan) Roll filled that place, ast fall.
ligion, and particularly that of the Negro, is that it is too emotional... It concerns itself with intellectual difficulties in order to escape moral and ethical realities. Its idealism keeps its head in the clouds while its soul remains insensitive to life's inhumanities. The N.A.A.C.P. in my judgement, is the best escape for the Negro church from this meaningless and anemic type of religion. We must make the church see that through the N.A.A.C.P. its world may become flesh, its abstracts may become concrete, its ideals real."
Suggest Program
The speaker then suggested a four-point program for the N.A.A.C.P. First: An open bid for the support of the Negro church; second: Urging Negro churches to send their ministers as delegates to N.A.A.C.P. annual conferences; third: organize a department of church memberships and bring every Negro church into it, and fourth: organize a college branch of the N.A.A.C.P. upon the campus of every Negro school in the United States.
"The Negro church," the speaker declared is "the most potent factor in the life history of the Negro group in America." He recognized however, "its waning power with the spread of intellectualism among our group" which needed the rejuvenating force of the N.A.A.C.P. program.
Policeman Beats Robbery Suspect in Making Arrest

less he drinks in moderation.
L. C. W.—Will you please advise if I will be able to take care of the payment on my home?
Ans.: You will be able to raise the money to meet the interest on the note due on your home before the first of SEPTEMBER. I see you working for a part of this money.
R. L.—Does my boy friend mean me well and is what he tells me the truth?
Ans.: He means you well but you know as well as he does that he is NOT telling the truth about you and he going together a few years ago. This is just a line that he pulls on all of the little girls he runs around with and he makes the majority of them believe it.
H. B. B.—When will my husband come home?
Ans.: Not for a few years. Do not encourage the officials in the institution to let him visit you for it will only make him worse. His mind is not altogether as alert as it should be as yet.
G. L. J.—In what line would I make best at as I really want to make some good money?
Ans.: You can make as much TEACHING MUSIC as you can make as a BEAUTICIAN. If it is money that you want, then take up beauty culture work but if it is the most congenial work, then stick to your music.
M. A. G.—Does my man friend love me or is he just fooling me?
Ans.: He is not trying to pull a fast deal over you. His FATHER is sick and he can't make calls at your home as he would wish to, but this will not last for long. Have patience for a little while longer and he will show you just how he feels about you.

N.A.A.C.P. Asks Congress to Probe NRA Treatment of Race
Resolutions of 25th Annual Conference Score AAA Farm Program, Hit Lynching and Segregation, Support Unemployment Insurance
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla.—Resolutions condemning the administration of New Deal policies as they affect Negroes, charging officials with meeting the appeals of colored people with indifference, and demanding a congressional in investigation into the treatment of Negroes under the N.R.A. were adopted here at the twenty-fifth annual conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Turning more than ever in its history to consideration of the economic plight of the colored people, the association in its resolutions, scores the administration of the federal farm program and asks the AAA to improve the lot of sharecroppers and casual farm labor.
A.F. of L. Scored
No discrimination in the employment of skilled and unskilled workers on building construction and other projects financed wholly or in part with federal funds, is demanded. Negroes are urged to join labor unions and seek to improve their lot as workers by collective bargaining while at the same time the leadership of the American Federation of Labor and the railroad brotherhoods are condemned for "continuing to weaken the labor movement by indifference to the exclusion or segregation of Negro workers from its local and international unions." Lynching was once more denounced and a federal anti-lynching law asked of the next congress, with the assertion that in the last congress a "small block of wilful obstructionists in the senate from

Opposed to Segregation
The resolutions endorsed unemployment insurance, old age pensions and the child labor amendment, called upon the U. S. department of labor to investigate the wages, hours and working conditions of domestic employees; affirmed continued opposition to all forms of segregation; condemned further prosecution of the Scottbora cases; urged Negro citizens "everywhere to qualify, register and vote; and to combat every effort to prevent Negroes from voting by means of so called "white primaries" or in any other fashion."

Lindsay, whose rubber-man an-
ties around the initial sack had
drawn the continuous applause of
the crowd of 4000 fans troughout
the contest, leaped high in air to
snare Brown's hard-hit drive which
hhad two bases labeled all over it
and end the hostilities for the day.
As the firstbaseman made the
eatch, throngs of fans, which
doubtless included many natives of
the Tar Heel State, rushed onto the
field extending the glad hand to
Lindsay and his teammate, Slick
Coleman, whose hurling had turned
back the "Dales in several tight
pinches,
The Hillsdales opened that long-
_to-be-remembered ninth with all
the aspects of a victorious rally
only to see Lindsay’s great catch
rob them of the deal. Willie Hope
pinched-batted for Spike Bland,
"Dale hurler, and whacked a double
to left and then the speedy Faunt-
roy made it a perfect day at bat
by collecting his fifth hit in the
form of a Texas Leaguer to cen-
ter. Hope, however, was forced to
linger at third on the play. Runt
White, who had previously put the
locals on even terms with the Sox,
flied out to short right and Johnny
Haywood struck out bringing the
powerful-swinging Brown to the
plate. Thus, the stage was set for
Lindsay's spectacular play and the
"Dales “glorious defeat.”
The visitors tallied the winning
run in the lucky seventh when
Harston tripled to right center and
trotted home on Lindsay's long fly
to Brown in rightfield. The remain-
ing quartet of runs were chalked
up in the fourth frame. Dave Camp-
bell opened the session with a
three-bagger to right and scored on
Lindsay's single. Marcum flied out
to center and Clark forced Lindsay
at second but Soup Turner juggled
the pill and all runners were safe.
‘The, firstsacker tallied a moment
later as Ernie Johnson threw wild-
ly to first after making a great
stop of Montgomery's grounder.
Another miscue, this time by Hay-
‘wood, let Clark score, ‘Thomas hit
a double to the leftfield foul line
to score Montgomery with the last
tally.
The "Dales who had initiated the
seoring with a run in the third off
the slants of Slick Coleman, the
North Carolinians’ ace moundsman,
deadlocked matters in their half of
the fourth. In the third, Fauntroy
was safe as Outfielder Clark lost
his high fly in the sun after Bland
had gotten a base on balls. Hay-

With the Tribune
It is not altogether the ‘of this contemporary to condone th
crucifixion of an unpopular tries by yanking out the nails and driving
them in again, but it is with x great deal of interest that your write
reads the column, “Sport Shots,” edited by his good friend W. Roll:
Wilson, in the July 7 issue of the Pittsburgh Courier. .
The article, anent the loss of a baseball game by the New Yor!
Black Yankees to the Philadelphia Stars, seta forth the action of oné
player as the factor which caused the loss of a 8-hit game and othe:
wise spoiled a splendid contest. =
‘Our interest is more or less centered around “Show Boat” Thomas
the New York first baseman, to whom Mr. Wilson attributes the defeat
A little jess than two years ago Thomas, cited by the Tribune as one of
the greatest ficlding first baseman on either this or the other side of
“the line,” was deciared just as poor in the matter of sportsmanship as
he was wealthy in the matter of ability. It was this failing that coat
his teammate, Bill Holland, the verdict in the game referred to by the
“Philadelphia scribe” (pardon me, Rollo).
‘The item in “Sport Shots” reads as follows:
“The Yanks and the Philly Stars played a great baseball
game one night last week, The Stars won out 1 to 0. Bill Hol-
land, still one af baseball’s greatest pitchers, gave the Bolden-
men three hits while his mates were gathering four off Slim
Jones, Sensational fielding backed up the work of the mound
toilers. But one incident, the effort of a player to “pass the
buck” to umpire Locke, spoiled the game.
“Chaney White had doubled with one down and Jud Wil-
Son was purposely passed. Paul Casey came to bat and drove
a grounder between first and second which Show Boat Thomas
fielded and threw to second to force Wilson. Yancey immedi-
ately returned the throw to first base to double up Casey, if
possible. In the meantime, of course, White had rounded third
base and was still stepping some.
“Locke waved Casey safe and Thomas, forgetting Whit
started to jump up and down and protest the decision. Ye
from his teammates attracted his attention and he threw thé
ball to Clark but White had crossed with the only run of the
game. Immediately the first baseman and the rest of the Yanks
surrounded the umpire to shove him around and add vocal pro-
tests to his verdict.
“Fans rushed on the field and only the arrival of police at
the trouble spot ended the disturbance. Then, after Thomas

fans booed him and he grabbed a handful of dirt and threw in
the ee ‘That started more excitement which needed police
to quell.
“With two down in the ninth it was Thomas’s turn to bat.
He strode to the plate and the fans rushed to the screen back
of the catcher to boo and curse him. Manager Scales then
wisely sent John Beckwith in to bat for him,
“Regardless of the justice of Locke's decision—and after
the game some of the Yanks admitted that Casey was safe—
Thomas put himself in a bad light and certainly did baseball
no good. People in the neighborhood of Passon Field filed pro-
tests against night games there and it has been a difficult task
for Harry Passon to keep his field going at night and this inci-
dent well may cause a cessation of games there, And if it
does, nobody will be blame but “Show Boat” Thomas.”
Which I believe bears out the contention in that Tribune arti
a couple years back that Thomas could be a sensation on the sign
if equipped with blinders and ear-muffs to adulterate that “gallery

BALTIMORE, Md—Benny Ashford’s three doubles featuted the
Winning of an Independence Day doubleheader from the Silver Mens
AG. of this city, by the Georgetown Athleties, of Washington at Dena
Hill Park, here last Wednesdgy. , The slugging right-flelder of the wee

CUBS AVENGE ONE
DEFEAT BY THREE
WINS IN WEEK
Drop Initial July Fourth
Three games were won and one
lost by the scrappy D. C. Cubs
baseball team during the week of
July Fourth, when the youthful
Northeast aggregation dropped the
opening Independence Day contest
to the Myrtle A. C., and then re-
furned to evan the score with that
club and go on to snatch @ double-
decision from the Deanwood A. C.,
Sunday.
‘The Cubs’ loss was by a score of
2-1, the Myrtles coming from be-
hind in their last two innings to
turn what, appeared since the first
inning to be a 1-0 Cub victory into
defeat. Jenkins and Hepborn en-
gaged in a pitching duel in this
affair.
Evidently peeved at the way the
tide was turned against them in
the initial encounter. the Cub bat-
ters returned to collect a total of
16 hits good for 17 runs in the 5
inning nightcap. Five runs in the
first and 4 in each of the 3 frames
thereafter settled the issue early.
Eight runs in their: third inning
practically clinched the opening
game of the Sabbath double-header
with the Deanwood clan, The win-
ners pounded the offerings of Lacy
for a total of 22 hits and after the
second frame, the verdict was
never in doubt.
Two runs pushed over just before
darkness halted the proceedings
and gave the Cubs their triumph in
the final ame of the Sunday twit
ill.

Jefferson and Verdell, New State Mentors, Prepare for Gala Program
"The year of Jubilee" for the Tenth Annual Southeastern Open Tennis Tournament, to be held at Virginia State College, July 30 to August 4 inclusive, takes on more definite form daily. Chief among the recent developments in regard to the meet is the fact that Harry R. Jefferson and Tom Verdell, recently appointed head football coach and assistant, respectively, at the college, will play important roles in the actual operation of the tournament.
"Big Jeff" will report for service on July 1 to begin formulating plans for his fall football campaign, and to take up his duties as Dean of Men. In the latter capacity he will have the responsibility of making living conditions comfortable and pleasant for many who will come to the Southeastern. The genial Jefferson will do this with perfection, as every one who is acquainted with him knows. In addition he will take part in the management and the handling of the tournament play, in which capacity he will also make a wonderful contribution. Verdell is already on the college campus. In the absence of J. D. Barnes, who is studying at Michigan University this summer, he is serving in the capacity of acting director of physical education. As such Verdell will be in harness to make this year's meet the greatest on record.

THE BEST LOW PRICED TIRE ON THE MARKET
Beyond Comparison in Quality, Construction, Appearance and Price With Any First Quality Tire Made
THE way to create a TIRE SENSATION is to give the people what they want, and Firestone has done this with the new Firestone Century Progress Tire.
As millions of people visited the Firestone Factory at the World's Fair last year, we asked this question—"What do you value most in a tire?" They answered—"Give us Blowout Protection, Non-Skid Safety, and Long Wear, at a moderate price." This was a big order, but Firestone has a habit of giving car owners what they want when they want it.
We knew there was only one way to build Quality and Value into a tire at a moderate price, and that was by volume production. Having a dealer organization, numbering over thirty thousand, we knew that if each of our dealers sold one tire a day, it would mean a daily production of 30,000 tires. We accepted the demand for "Blowout Protection, Non-Skid Safety, and Long Wear, at a moderate price." We built the greatest tire ever made to sell at these low prices. Car owners are profiting because we found out what they wanted and found the way to give it to them.
The new Firestone Century Progress Tire is as modern as its name! Broad, husky shoulders, massive flat tread, deep-cut non-skid and Gum-Dipped cords. A TIRE THAT IS EQUAL OR SUPERIOR to any first quality tire built, regardless of name, brand, by whom manufactured, or at what price offered for sale.

FIRST ALLRUBBER SEPARATOR ADDS BATTERY POWER
The first battery separator made exclusively of rubber is now in production in the Firestone Battery Factories at Akron, Ohio and Los Angeles, California. It is considered as great an advancement in batteries as the balloon tires were in the tire industry, for it is not effected by heat, cold, or acid, and yet so porous it increased power flow. It is used in the Firestone Extra Power Battery.
The Allrubber Separators are made up of millions of tiny balls of rubber joined together in such a way as to give extreme porosity, allowing quick flow of power. They have much longer life under adverse conditions—in fact they last the life of the battery.
Separators of rubber have long been the goal of the battery industry. A number of separators have been brought out combining rubber with fiber, wood and rubber, etc., and though some obtained long life, they were considerably less porous and thus gave less starting power, especially in cold weather.

FOR PICNIC RESERVATIONS
"The Big Shakedown" and "Happy Feet." Those are the names of the offerings which comprise the Howard bill for the coming week. And from all indications it should be a red hot card.
The first is the screen production and it brings a brand new romantic team into the limelight. Charles Farrell, the handsome boy lover of "Seventh Heaven" and a score of others, and Bette Davis, the charming little actress who is at present monopolizing feminine leads in late productions.
So great was Miss Davis's work in "The Big Shakedown" that she was signed almost as soon as the picture was completed for "Of Human Bondage," and immediately thereafter for "Fog Over Frisco."
"The Big Shakedown" purposes to be an expose of the extent to which big shot racketeers will go to regain millions they find themselves losing as a result of the work of law-makers. The effect of repeal on the underworld forms the background of the story. The stage show, "Happy Feet" is to be made up of a host of stars of the footlights. Manager Shep Allen told the "Shopping the Shows" correspondent that he had not completed the line-up, but the Howard patrons could feel assured of some crackerjack entertainment from a cast of some 45 or 50 well known actors and actresses.
Review
Except for the novelty of having the Hardy Brothers Orchestra render a new number and the presence of Ristina Banks's stellar chorus ensemble the Howard's show of the current week would be resting entirely on the laurels of the picture "The Life of Vergie Winters"
One hardly needs to admit that the orchestra which once not only
dominated the local field but lots of other fields as well, has seen a marked decline in its popularity by reason of its repetition of old numbers. The rendition of "Imagination" strikes a well-sounding note in the hearts of the music-loving parons. Incidentally the score is from the pen of one of the band.
The chorines under the direction of our own Miss Banks do their chores with the usual nep and precision. Their interpretation of "Mood Indigo" develops into one of the best chorus numbers seen on T Street in a long time.
As for the rest, "Rubberlegs" Williams, who for some reason or other has cultivated a singing complex, Hannah Sylvester, singer, Ford, Bowie, and Daly a tap dance trio, and the comic team of John Mason and Dusty Fletcher, your writer tired of them very easily, Williams's offering seems to be a cross between torch voice and crooner, and though unique is hardly engaging.
But despite the stage bill the Howard show is well worth the price of admission. Ann Harding and John Boles both crown their screen carers with what are probably their best productions. Any attempt on the part of this writer to bring the story to this page would be far-fetched, so fine and yet so powerful is the drama involved in it.

months in the making and finished in the most acceptable manner, was directed by Dorothy Arzner, Hollywood's only female director. The production is commendable as a reflector for her qualities as such. Miss Sten is sensational in her role as the street-girl who rises from the gutter so to speak to become the toast of Paris music halls. The setting is the French capital in the seventies. The star's rendition "That's Love" will stamp her as a favorite regardless of the type of note she strikes as an ac-

-:-Lincoln-:-
Uptown Washington has waited a long time for "Sadie McKee," Joan Crawford's latest starring vehicle. The new Metro-Goldwyn film, with the fast climbing Franchot Tone opposite Miss Crawford, arrives at the Lincoln, tomorrow (Friday) for a week's stay.
Followers of the doings of Hollywood and Hollywood folks will find the two principals of the rumored romance, confirmed and denied in alternate periods, playing together for the third time since Joan's separation from the illustrious Doug Fairbanks, Jr.
"Sadie McKee" brings to the screen this private life romance said to have been budding within a short space of time after that well known gift.
The blonde Gene Raymond is cast as "Tommy," a crooner who wins Crawford's heart with his uke and his voice. Raymond, always a favorite among local theatre-goers, earned the assignment after eclipsing 100 others who sought and were sought for the part.
Others in the supporting cast are Edward Arnold, Jean Dixon, Leo G. Carroll and Esther Ralston, the latter said to be more beautiful than ever. "Once in A Lifetime," and "June Moon" are two musical scores in which Miss Dixon makes quite a hit.

Mills Brothers Treatment Before British Ambassador
NEW YORK—In a strong letter to Sir Ronald Lindsay, British Ambassador to the United States, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has vigorously protested against the recent refusal of .15 London hotels to accommodate the Four Mills Brothers, noted American radio, screen and stage stars solely because of their color.
"There was no question of their ability to pay for their accommodations," the letter tasserts, "since their guarantee in England was $6,000 a week. There was no question of their character or behavior. It seems inescapable that they were offered the insults solely because of their color."
She—How kind you are to your wife, sending her away for a rest. He—Yes, indeed, and I need one.

impractical factors, but he did add
that if the sources of évonomic con-
flict were removed. from Americar
life and opportunities more equal
in their scape were provided he
thinks a more practical approach
might be made.
In addition to this he emphasized
the dire need of a serious -educa-
tional program which “would begin
with children in white schools and
extend to larger and older audi-
ences” in an effort to undermine
old notions about the inherent in-
feriority of racial groups.
Cites Environment
“Some recent investigations have
shown such tremendous improve-
ment in Negro children in propor-
tion as their environment has been
increased that it appears that most
of what is called inferiority in Ne-
gro children would disappear en-
tirely if their environment were
made equal to that of whites,” Dr.
Klineberg said. Supporting this he
added that science has as yet pro-
duced “no basis for the suggestion
that Negroes are more primitive
than their white neighbors.”
‘That the Institute, which is spon-
sored by the Committee on Race
Relations of the Philadelphia So-
ciety of Friends, will attempt to
“work no miracles” was pointed out
by Dr. Charles S. Johnson, Fisk
University Research head, who is
director of the Institute.

Have you ever visited the new
Banneker Poo! up on the hill? I¢
not, you are missing the greatest
stteection in this city. Pay a visit
to. the pool and enjoy an evening
of delight. Now for some other
interesting news, Who was the
young lady Alonzo was jibing at
the water-front, Tuesday night?
We wonder where Geraldine W.
could have been? Who was the
two young gentlemen that were
seen escorting Rose Wood and
Frances Smith home Sunday night?
Did you know that a“pew romance
is brewing? We notice that two
Oakwood students are very friend-
ly toward each other these days.
They are Hlyda Booker and Cor-
nelius Harris. It's just a college
romance folks! Why did Willie
Mae journey to New York just to
see her boy friend recently? Too
bad J.Y., the crooner didn't know.
We wonder if Irving Dudley i
really going to get married in Jan-
wary. Notice he still visits on
Third Street. James Williams, one
of Armstrong’s loudest baritones,
plans to become an orator. Let's
give him a big hand Mattie!

Robinson will ever help “Kate
Smith” lift the moon over the
mountain? It seems as though
Misses Bertha Hutchinson and Bea-
trice Hawkins had a hard time try-
ing to get rid of Troy and Cooper
Monday night.
Alice Jones, of Anacostia, had
several crooners to entertain her
last week. Of course, our report
ers were present. Pauline Simms,
of Southeast, couldn't get along
with a former lieutenant 80 now
she goes with someone who isn’t
bashful.
Johnny Marshall you had better
keep your eyes on Ruth 1. or Pick
will carry her away. Josephine
Williams has her strings tied tight-
iY to Paul Russell since she heard
that Bobbie Grant was after him.
Are you going to the Elks’ Rest in
Arlington, Virginia on the eighteen-
th of this month? Everyone is de-
siring to be present. Dancing and
other amusements are in store for
everyone. Who's giving it? Why

young ladies love to sing and dance.

The Big Brown Bear
Most of the clumsy, friendly
bears we see at the x00 are brow!
or black bears. ‘The last wild bea
in England was killed in the days
of William the Conqueror, bu
bears are fairly common. in th
deep woods of North Amerien
especially in Yellowatone and’other
national parks where they are pro:
tected by law.
These bears are easily tamed and
can be taught to dance and per-
form simple tricks. Children like
to watch them drink tonic and eat
ice eream cones,
During the summer the bear ac-
cumulates layers of fat upon hie
body. At the approach of winter,
he crawls into a cave and sleeps
until Spring.
While he sleeps, his body ab-
sorbs the fat little by little. ‘This
is nature's way of keeping the bear
alive during the cold winter when
he would be unable to find food.
In the Spring when he crawls out
of his den, he is thin and poor but
soon begins to plump up again,
Baby bears weigh only a few
ounces at birth. They grow to the
enormous bulk of three or four
hundred pounds. ‘These baby bears
are usually horn in February while
the mother bear is hibernating in
the cave,
‘They are usually twins, about
eight inches long with hair like
velvet. It is thirty days or more
hefore they get their eyes open.
For forty days and forty nights the
mother nourishes them from the
fat of her own body, By Spring

', The frolicking and dancing of
hundreds of excursionists who cele-

sts of the Washington Pilot
Picosure Club on 2 moonlight beat
ride came to an abrupt halt while
guests watched the rescue of a
‘woman who plunged into the wa-
ters of the Potomac River follow-
ing a quarrel with her husband.
‘The woman, Mrs, Corrine Yeung,

Point as the Steamer E. Madison
Hall was making its way to the
home dock after the trip down to
River View, Md, As the pleasure
steamer steamed past the point a
ery of “Lady Overboard!” brought
@ silence to the jazzy tunes of the

milling guests, The steamer came
to a halt and its whistle blew for
‘aid from harbor police.
Luckily two officers aboard the

INFANT DEATHS IN
D.C. 100 HIGH SAYS
THOMPKINS
Reduction of infant mortality
and tuberculosis resulting in neg-
leet of children of pre-scho® age,
was the objective agreed upon by
representatives of four local civic
organizations at a meeting of the
Federation of Civic Associations,
held at the Phyllis Wheatley Y.W.-
C.A., Wednesday night. A large
number were present at the urge
of George W. Beasley, president of
the federation,
Dr. William J. Thompkins, re-
corder of deeds of the District of
Columbia, a former hospital super
intendent and health official in Kan-
eas City, and present commission-
er of Elks, was the principal speak-
er. In his talk Dr. Thompkins
drew a comparison between condi-
tions in Washington and conditions
in cities where preventive mea-
sures are in use. The failure of
the Health Department to adopt
appropriate preventive measures
was pointed out by him as one of
the principal factors in the situa-
tion as it exists in the Capital.
A statement recently credited to
Dr. W. C. Fowler to the effect that
the high mortality rate in the Dis-
treit was due largely to the dense
colored population of the city, was
attacked by Dr. Thompkins. The
latter held out that installation of
@ chain of “well-baby” stations in
Washington would solve the prob-
lem.
This, he averred, could be done
at a cost of less than $100,000,
His plan is calculated to reduce
the annual number of deaths of
colored children of pre-school axe
from 500 to not more than 200.
His program received indorse-
ment of representatives of group:
present, which included the Young
‘Women’s Christian Association, thi
Federation of Civie Organizations
the College of Women's League an
the Lend-a-Hand Club. The alffili
‘ated bodies favored reorganizatior

TELLS JURY COPS ALMOST KNOCKED EYE FROM SOCKET
Despite Story of Brutality, Man is Found Guilty of Assaulting Police
Despite the fact that he claimed that one eye was almost knocked from its socket, and he was badly bruised and beaten, Russell Jackson, 640 I Street, Southeast, testified before a jury in Police Court Monday morning that two white policemen attached to No. 3 Precinct, arrested him and lodged a charge of "assaulting an officer" against him.
The man told a story of police brutality that made even hardened court attaches lawyers and reporters wince. He said he had been drinking but wasn't drunk enough not to know what he was doing. He said two white policemen, Ernest Filmore and Cornelius Lowrie, approached him and placed him under arrest.
They then proceeded to beat him with their fists and batons. He said he begged for mercy, but they continued to hit him about the head and body. He was bleed ing from a number of lacerations of the head and body when he was taken to the precinct station and later to Emergency Hospital where he was treated for multiple cuts and bruises.
Attorney Harry A. Dyson who represented Jackson stated that on reaching the precinct he found his client lying in a pool of blood. The officers explained that they had to "subdue" their prisoner in making the arrest.
Following the trial a jury of white men found Jackson guilty of assaulting the officers.
STRIKE RUMOR AT ATLANTA SCHOOL OF SOCIAL WORK
(Continued from page 1) sent to the Atlanta School of Social Work to learn special technique in handling relief problems.
Details Vague
Full details of how the plan is being administered are not available. The students have been gathered from Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee, Virginia, Argansas and Louisiana. Most of them are members of social work staffs in their various communities. Many of them are receiving their regular salaries while attending school. Others are merely receiving a one-hundred dollar scholarship which covers board, room and tuition. The latter students are up in arms and say that opportunity to learn the details of the program was not given them.
Other Schools Named
The charge is made that except for pressure being brought, students would have been permitted to take their work at either the New York School of Social Work or the University of Chicago. In some instances plans had been made and persons selected to go to the above mentioned schools and the amount of from three to three hundred and fifty dollars allocated for each student. At this point the whole thing took a sudden and strange turn. Word came from somewhere that all students had to go to the Atlanta School of Social Work. Students were told to get ready to leave for Atlanta on the next train. No time for questioning this abrupt change was given. Some of them did not know how long the course would last or how much the scholarship offered financially, until they reached the school.
Students Called "Dumb"
Students went to members of the faculty of the school for information, but without avail. The director is in Washington. One of the members of the faculty (a white woman) when approached by the students told them that they were "dumb and silly." They should be glad to get any consideration. She further threatened to use her influence to see that those students who persisted in demanding explanation, would lose their jobs when they returned home. Many of these young people are college graduates; some have master's degrees. As a result of the attitude of this particular teacher feeling has been running high and rumors of a strike has gained currency.
If you are not satisfied with your lot, build on it.

ANNUAL OUTING OF BAR ASSOCIATION SET FOR SATURDAY
Plans Completed for All-day Affair at Chalcedony Inn; Visitors Expected
Preparations for the annual outing of the Washington Bar Association are in their advanced stages according to announcement of Thurman L. Dodson, president, and Secretary William A. Lee, Jr., early this week. The affair is slated for the Chalcedony Inn, formerly the Midcity Country Club, and is to take place Saturday. The Inn is located just this side of Laurel on the Baltimore-Washington boulevard.
Entertainment features listed for the outing are croquet, card playing, dancing and finally a baseball game between teams composed of veteran and sundry practitioners. The club management has advised Mr. Dodson that the facilities of the club will be at the disposal of the association members and their guests.
Present plans have local members of the association assembling at the corner of Tenth and U Streets Northwest, in front of the Masonic Temple Building, at 10 o'clock.
Members of the Monumental City Bar Association and the Virginia Bar Association have also been invited to accompany the local caravan. It is understood that several of these have made known their intentions of participating, letters having been received from some by Attorney George G. Jefferson, chairman of the outing committee

No Negro Farmers
Davis also pointed out that there were no representatives of Negro farmers of the state and intimated that this was occasioned by the fact that the hearing was held in a place not usually frequented by Negroes. Several weeks ago he was successful in getting places of these state hearings changed from Jim Crow, hotels to public places where Negroes could appear unmolested.
Sensation Created
A veritable sensation was created when Davis charged the cotton ginners with attempting to bluff the government by threatening not to accept a marketing agreement or a code of fair compensation. The cotton ginners wholly unprepared for the appearance of a Negro who spoke with fire and courage in their very teeth, stood agast until he had finished his appearance. There followed a clamor for the floor, and in the course of the heated and loud argument the word "nigger" flew thick and fast. Unruffled by the hostile atmosphere Davis gave his opponents back as good as they sent and forced a number of valuable admissions into the record.
Leave on Motor Trip
Attending the hearing also were Walter White, executive secretary of the N.A.A.C.P.; Charles H. Houston of Howard University; Juanita Jackson of Baltimore, Md., and many Negro citizens of this city. The hearing came following the close of the 25th annual conference of the N.A.A.C.P., where the above named had spoken. Following the hearing, White, Houston and Davis left by motor for a tour of Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama to investigate the government farm program under the NRA.

LYNCHINGSDECLINE NOTED IN REPORT FROM TUSKEGEE
TUSKEGEE, Ala. — A slight decrease in the number of lynchings for the past six months of 1934, was noted in a release from the Department of Records and late this week. Six persons were victimized by mob violence from January to the close of June. This number is two less than the total number of lynchings in the corresponding period last year, the Tuskegee statistics show. In 1932 there were five lynchings. All of the persons lynched were Negroes. The offenses charged were: wounding man in altercation, 1; rape 1; attempted rape, 2; associating with white woman, 1; striking man, 1. The States in which lynchings occurred and the number in each State are as follows: Florida, 1; Kentucky, 1; Mississippi, 2; Tennessee, 1; and Texas, 1.
Marriage Makes
Personality
Speaking before members of the National Education Association in convention here last week, Dr. William A. White, nationally known psychiatrist, asserted that married women are superior to single ones, "Single women," he said, "are more likely to have more distorted personalities than married ones because problems such as their love life have not been settled."

PHYSICIAN HELD IS CHARGED WITH DEATH OF GIRL
St. LOUIS Mo. — Dr. Jefferson S. Jaques, 48, was arrested at the order of Assistant Circuit Attorney McLaughan Friday morning at his office, 2131a Market Street. His arrest followed a coroner's verdict of homicide in the death of Thelma Lyons, 18-year-old girl, the fatality being attributed to an illegal operation. The physician was later released on a $5,000 bond.
Youth Involves Doctor
Phillip Washington 22-year-old car washer living at 3207 Delmar Boulevard, who had been keeping company with the girl for about a year, admitted being responsible for the girl's condition and implicated the doctor in her fatal illness. According to his testimony at the inquest, the girl applied at Dr. Jaques' office for treatment some time between May 20-24. The physician told him that he could cure her without any danger, he said and told him he would handle the case for $15.
Youth Pays Doctor
Miss Lyons became so ill June 9th that she was confined to her bed at home. Washington stated that he went to the doctor's office and asked him to go to the girl's home. He said that he had paid him $5 and $3.50 on the medical bill but became excited when the girl got worse and mustered up $6 more.
The girl's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Langston L. Lyons, stated that they did not become greatly concerned over the girl's condition at first as she had told them it was nothing serious and the doctor informed them he was treating her for inflammation of the stomach and chills.

DR. JAMES WILDER VETERAN DOCTOR EXPIRES AT HOME
Was Howard Medical Grad and Acive in Civic Affairs of City
Dr. James R. Wilder, for over 40 years a practicing physician in Washington, died at his late residence, 218 I Street, Northwest, early Saturday morning after an illness which had kept him inactive for several years. He was six-eight years old.
Funeral services for the veteran doctor were held Tuesday afternoon from his home with the Rev. Themes Brown, pastor of St. Lukes Church of which he was a member, officiating. Interment was at Lincoln Memorial Cemetery.
Dr. Wilder was the son of C. M. Wilder, postmaster of Columbia, S.C., during the Reconstruction Days. He served as money order clerk in his father's office. He came to Howard University to study and was graduated from the medical school in 1887. He entered immediately into the practice of his profession and was among the oldest practitioners in this city.
Several years ago he retired from active practice and devoted his energies to civic affairs. He was a co-worker with the late Dr. Kober in the organization of the Anti-Tuberculosis Society of the District of Columbia and served as its president for a number of years. He was active in civic and political movements especially as they concerned the welfare of the colored people. As a progressive he stood as a candidate for the National Republican Convention in 1912. Having traveled extensively throughout Europe and South America as well as the United States, Dr. Wilder was well known. Besides his widow, Mrs. Sallie C. Wilder, Dr. Wilder is survived by two children, Dr. C. M, Wilder and Susan W. Thompson.

Internal Trouble
The Masons have had internal difficulties in recent weeks due to the fact that the order of the Eastern Star, women's auxiliary, has refused to join with the men in the repurchase of the Masonic Temple, Tenth and U Streets, Northwest.
The grand lodge is now headed by Lewis W. Roy. Grand Master Roy and a few of the men are seeking to buy the temple which was lost to the order during the National Benefit Life Insurance Company receivership. The men are of the opinion that this can be done with the aid of the women, but the latter organization has turned thumbs down on the proposition stating that they will help finance a smaller building, but the temple is too big an undertaking.
Women Refuse Aid
It was also said that Roy threatened to suspend the Eastern Star but the women pointed out that his powers did not enable him to take this action. At a stormy meeting on June 27 the women flatly refused to have anything more to do with the temple. Mrs. Jennie B. Lee is grand matron of the Order of the Eastern Star.

NO.4 APPARATUS LAUNCHING STOCK
NO.4 APPARATUS LAUNCHING STOCK
(Continued from page 1) the matter un with the chief engineer of the Fire Department for his consideration when making assignments of apparatus.
"Engine Knocks"
The letter pictured the Southwest hose wagons as "snail-like" in speed, and described No. 4 as being pathetic when it "chugs" up to a large fire after seven or eight other engine companies are already on the job. Other engines when pumping water have a soft purring sound like the purring of a kitten, while No. 4's engine "wheezes" and "knocks" almost like a pile-driver. The letter to Schrom read in part: "There is a general feeling among citizens that the Southwest section has been much persecuted for many years when it comes to adequate fire protection.
Had to Wait for Train
"There is probably no city in the country which has a fire-house so unwisely located as is the No. 4 firehouse on Virginia Avenue.
"As far back as the early '90's citizens of the Southwest section made efforts to have its location changed. The railroad tracks were then on the level, and No. 4 could not pass until the railroad watchman cleared the tracks of trains. This was in the days of the old fire horse.
"The elevated railroad viaduct, 40 feet from the front doors of the firehouse, with acute angle turns under the viaduct at Sixth Street and Four-and-a-half Street, now forms an insuperable barrier to speedy response to fire alarms with motorized equipment.
"Added to this 65-year-old handicap, fire department officials removed from the area south of Pennsylvania Avenue, two engine companies—No. 2 in 1910 and No. 16 in 1923.
"No apparent effort has been made to strengthen the two remaining engine companies, No. 4 and No. 13—and in particular No. 4, which is only five blocks south of Pennsylvania Avenue and bears the brunt of the work in this area.
Responsibility Increased
"The responsibility of these companies has greatly increased in recent years. In addition to over 50 Federal and District Government buildings to which they respond and protect, the Federal Government has invested millions of dollars in a building program on the south side of Pennsylvania Avenue.
No. 4 is Laughing Stock
"The three aged pumping engines which fire officials have assigned to No. 4 since 1921 have made it the laughing stock of the Fire Department and the public.
"Its present 16-year-old engine is the oldest in active service and is the engine which the Superintendent of Machinery testified before both houses of Congress would be 17 years old in 1935.
No. 4 is Pathetic
"It is pathetic to see No. 4 'chugging' up to a second alarm fire after seven or eight other engine companies are already on the job. Other engines when pumping water have a soft purring sound like the purring of a kitten. The No. 4 engine 'wheezes' and 'knocks' almost like a pile-driver.
No. 4 Has Been Humiliated
"It must be most humiliating to a 'cracker-jack' fire unit to labor under such embarrassing circumstances."

DEAN HOUSTON SCORES CRITICS
DEAN HOUSTON SCORES CRITICS
(Continued from page 1 ) were available. They simply did not have the information which the authors of this article later obtained in Virginia. Like many others, the report turned in by Miss Boardman; but it happens that in the time available to her Miss Boardman was unable to talk to the persons who possessed direct information in Virginia. She did not get the Crawford or the Virginia Negroes, or with the Washington police who were called in by the Loudoun County authorities to investigate the case. She was asked to second offender Crawford as taking a nine-year sentence for receiving stolen cigarettes in order to save a sister from prosecution, the court records in Richmond disclosed that Crawford second offender Crawford given three and a half years it for receiving stolen goods. He escaped in May, 1922, and the November following had been caught and sentenced in Richmond to five years for the possession of diamond rings from his employer. There was no evidence for the previous escape, and two more years for his being a second offender. He had been discharged in 1938 under a compulsory sentence for saving the life of a prison guard B. A. Coleman, of Lynchburg, Virginia.
The Boston alibi had placed Crawford in Boston continuously from about September 5, 1931, straight through January 15, 1932. But it began to develop from friendly correspondence returned to Virginia before Christmas, 1931, and had been in and around Virginia from that time up until the time of the murders. It has been suggested that these witnesses did not appear to be under any dues, and in at least one instance the colored boy who talked with counsel had previously refused to divulge his information to Counsel have been criticized because they spent most of their time trying to discover what evidence the prosecution had against Crawford and because they left the investigation of the Boston alibi to the last. But the evidence that was presented and presented at the rendition hearing in January and February, 1932. Any would have been ground for suspicion. Crawford and counsel with him just the *me* as if he had wrapped it in a package and carried in his hand. On the other hand, counsel had to investigate the evidence of the prosecution order to develop their theory of the defense.
As a matter of fact, at the end of November, 1983, two weeks before the trial, Mr. Rainbow and James G. Tyson of the defense, who were the lawyers for Lovett, also of the Washington bar, assisted in the defense, went to Boston to check up on the alibi and on Crawford's alleged confession to the maidenhead understanding which can hardly be laid at their door, they failed to see two alibi witnesses who had given important testimony at the roidition hearing. Though the maidenhead testimony that Crawford was in Boston on January 13, 1982. But against the accuracy of their memories there are three object facts which tend to show that object facts
1. On Christmas eve, 1891, the Isley cottage in Middleburg was entered and a gold watch stolen. In January, 1892, shortly before the murders, Crawford turned up in the house and took the watch his watch to Coleman for the price of a bus ticket to Richmond. Coleman produced the watch at the trial, but upon the defence objection that the watch referred to the court ruled the watch out of evidence and he did not permit the prosecution to identify it.
2. About 4 a.m. on the night of the murders 2 Negroes abandoned a Ford car on the Virginia side of the Potomac River to the police station. Mrs. Isley's car. It was taken to the Washington police headquarters, and when it was searched, a note indisputably written by George Crawford was found on the floor. Further evidence tended to establish that the note was written two days before the murder. Criticism been made that the Washington police did not find the note on the first search of the car, and that counsel did not bring this out on cross-examination. But what difference was made in the case, note written under the circumstances which counsel knew it had been written under. Counsel saved the force of their cross-examination for the crucial things which could really affect the decision of the court. The unconstitutional exclusion of Negroes from the grand and petit juries: the testimony of the pathologist, who claimed he had found Negro skin under Mrs. Isley's nails; the confessions which was the mess of connecting Crawford with the crime itself.
3. Crawford's clothes were discovered in Washington, D.C., where he had abandoned them when he filed from Washington after the war. He was later found where Crawford said he had stayed, obtained the clothes, and still have them in his possession. He presented nineteen witnesses who were to see Crawford in Virginia, December 24, 1931, and January 4, 1932. The majority of these were contact with him, such as in the same house. Counsel had interviewed six of the most important of these witnesses in advance of the trial; and either from these six or from conversation with them, he would state what the others would testify to. There were only two witnesses in the entire case whose testimony was a surprise and these two were successfully impeached.
Upon the facts as developed from their own investigations and conferences with Crawford, counsel decided not to offer the Boston alibl, but to rest their strategy on a rejection to prove its case beyond a reasonable expectation of advantage of a every reversible error made by the court. In counsel's opinion the court made four errors, any one of which would have served to justify an appeal: (1) the court erred in ruling that qualified Negasian as a defendant exclusively excluded from the grand jury; (2) from the petit jury: (4) in admitting Crawford's "confession"; and (4) in not striking out all the evidence of the prosecution on the ground of variance from the court's decision; (5) returned a verdict of guilty with imprisonment for life; the court entered sentence; and counsel failed to appeal. Why?
In the first place Crawford did not want to be a judge, and his life. He did not get into the mess of raising the constitutional issues; and if he was unwilling to gamble with his life to win the election, he was guilty of criminalization in Virginia, quite frankly that was his business. When the question was asked whether he wanted to take the chance on the outcome of another trial if he had been wrongly convicted, he staged that counsel could use their own judgement so long as he did not have to take a chance on the electric chair. As a result, he was not guilty of this article took their orders from him.

SEVENTH AND H STS. N. W.
There were indications at the time of the Crawford sentence that the practice of excluding Negro from juries in Virginia was breaking the law, and that he had begun to appear in divers counties throughout the State. In Fredericksburg in the preceding summer, Judge Coleman had fined a white farmer for contempt in refusing to serve on a grand jury. In another case, it is true that Crawford had been indicted, tried, and convicted by white juries from which counsel is convinced Negroes had been unconstitutionally excluded, but these juries were not indicted. Crawford received juries in fact, if not in law. Anyone who instigates that Crawford was framed in Virginia does not know the facts. Moreover, Judge McLennon, who had tried the Crawford case, although he refused to set the white juries aside, had actually made a finding that the three Negroes in Loudeau County qualified for
jury service, and had expressed the hope that in the future the matter would be settled to the satisfaction of all concerned, to real question whether from the standpoint of the court's jurisdiction getting Negroes on juries in all the counties of Virginia it was better to force the case in the Crawford case or to leave it to the court. In the case to the tate that the N.A.A.C.P. raised the jury issue only in the interests of substantial injustice, and did not raise it as a shield to protect guilty Negroes from the court. Within sixty days after the Crawford case, in Judge McLemore's home county, 15 Negroes had been included on a panel of 17 jurors, the first Negroes to be involved in the case, being spread in other counties. Most significant, there has been no public rementation. The leaders of public opinion say this is due in no small measure to the trial and outcome of the Crawford case.
Again, the N.A.A.C.P. had to consider the question of local community relationships. As an outside organization the N.A.A.C.P. had to calculate carefully how satisfied it was in turning the county upside down to local Negroes, leaving them in their weakness to catch the full force of community resentment. Sometimes in major social movements it may be necessary to sacrifice the interests of the whole, but the decision should be made after great deliberation. When the Crawford case opened, the community was tense and hostile. The Negro population was so apprehensive that adoptions could not be obtained. Counsel had could not be obtained. Counsel had to commute back and forth from Washington to Leesbury every day of the trial. Yet when the case closed, the atmosphere had completely changed, and both whites and Negroes county better than ever before. These facts cannot be ignored, especially when it is known that over almost unanimous protest counsel had refused to ask a change of venue and had insisted that the trial be held.
ders had been committed, under the principle that the real test whether Virginia could give Crawford a fair trial was its ability to give him such a trial in the case of a murder and where feeling was most inflamed. It has been stated that Virginia rushed Crawford to a plea of guilt to the Buckner case after a feature article had appeared in the newspaper. Crawford had denied his guilt and claimed a frame-up. The truth is that the arrangements for the plea had been made before the article appeared. When Crawford was confronted with the article, he denied it and said he would not take the responsibility of pleading him guilty. He was advised that he did not have to plead guilty and could have a trial if he wanted it; but of his own decision he declined a trial and entered his plea.

Subduing Prisoners
Subduing prisoners seems to be a fa-
Vorite pastime among many of the
white policemen of the District here ot
late. A cop can beat a man or woman
almost to death and merely state that
he had to “subdue” the prisoner, in
making the arrest and that is the end
of it as far as the policeman is con-
werned.
The “subdued* man or woman not
only has a sore head and body, but quite
often a doctor's bill and a stiff fine for
“resisting arrest” or “assaulting an of-
ficer.”
Last week a white cop “subdued”
two women and shot one of the women’s
@og while the animal was muzzled and
on a leash. This week a man “sub-
dued” had his eye almost knocked out
and his head and body beaten while
“assaulting an officer.”
‘here are some decent policemen on
the fome, but there are many more

ed pexsons ‘gursg them for no xea-

Convention Season
“ Once again we have come upon the
eonvention season. There are those
qwho are opposed to conventions and
spending of large sums for entertain-
jment and parades,
One school advocates that Negroes
should use this money for more benefi-
cial purposes.» They claim thousands
of dollara are wasted annually by these
meetings, sessions and whatnots. In-
variably this group is composed of well-
to-do Negroes who can afford tv take
vacations at stated intervals during the
year and you will find them regular pa-
trons of summer resorts and beaches.
On the other hand convention follow-
ers are of the poorer class and only get
the opportunity to get away at conven-
‘tion time when special low rates are of-
fered by trains or they go free as dele-
gates,
Of course when the total sum of a
eonvention is added it appears as a
Jarge amount, but individuals spend
mighty little for a few days of pleasure
after 12 months of toil.,Why begrudge
them this little, if they can come back
with renewed energy and refreshed af-
ter having met their friends in a com-
‘mon reunion and ready to carry on for

Kelly Miller Says
Mary White Overton’s
Desire Can Never
Be Fulfilled
All praise and honor 2
for the patriotism of her suggestion.
When the whites join the N.A.A.C.P.
their motive is purely altiuistic and
only secondarily selfish. When the
Negro joins, Ris motive is maily sel-
fish and altruistic only in a secondary
sense.
Miss Mary White Overton is of the salt of
the earth. She embodies and brings to the
present day a full measure of the by-gone gen-
eration when enthusiasm for humanity over.
ran tacial boyndaries. She exemplifies the
faith that is within her and the doctrine which
she preaches. At the recent session of the Na-
tional Association for the Advancement of
Colored People she lamented the gradual with-
drawal of white participants in the work of
this great organization and urged a broader
poliey which would appeal to recruits from
both races.
‘Abrahem Lincoln in a philosophic . rather
than in a philanthropic mood declared that he
did not believe that the two races could live to-
gether on terms of equality, unless the one
Were assigned the inferior and the other the
superior position. a
However much we feel disposed to quarrel
with the emancipator for his judgement, yet
candor compels us to admit that our experi-
ence of the intervening seventy years has in
no whit invalidated the accuracy of his fore-
cast. The white race asserts its superiority;
‘the Negro is per force compelled to receive,
even if he does not accept, this assumption.
‘The best of the whites may consent to work
with Negroes for the good of the latter, as be-
fits the benefactor and the beneficiary. The
‘very name of the N.A,A.C.P, indicates this re-
lationship. ‘The well disposed whites are will-
ing to work with Negroes for the “advance-
ment of colored people.” Our entire philan-
thropic fabrie was founded and operated om
this basis. The service was largely recruited
by whites before a requisite number of colored
competetitors were qualified. At one time
we had white pastors of colored churches and
white teachers in colored schools. But as soon
as the Negro astingent began to increase, the
with gradually withdrew. As the one in-
creases the other declines. No where do they
work together on competitive basis. When
the half-gods come, the gods go. The exper-
ience of the N.A.A.C.P. is but repeating the
same old story, notwithstanding the pious lam-
entations of our true and tried friend, Misa
Ovington. When the movement was new and
enthusiasm for the new adventure ran high,
chivalrous whites fought valiantly with their
colored co-workers, but as the Negro adherents
became more numerous and assertive, the
whites silently and gradually withdrew, leaving
the organization chiefly in the hands of the
benefited group.
Cooperation does not imply that all of the
workers should perform the same task. Divi-
sion of labor is the most effective mode of ¢o-
operation. After calf and dispassionate re-
flection, Iam convinced that the most effective
and practical form of racial cooperation in the
present mood and temper of the Nordic mind,
Which we do not seem to be able to change or
modify, is for the best of white men and wo-
men to be assigned positions of overhead super-
vision, leaving the field work which calls for
intimate contact to colored co-workers. The
history of the N.A.A.C.P. verifies and justifies
this judgment. From the first, the whites
have been assigned the chief places in the man-
agement. In my judgment a reversal of this
policy ould spell disaster for the organization,
At one time the N.A.A.C.P. sought to assign
white men to the field work but this policy la-
mentably failed. Negroes only can best ac-
complish intimate field work among their own
People,
Our churches by bitter experience are leara-
ing the wisdom of thls policy. The great re-
Higious denominations which fall wholly under
Negro overhead control show deplorable weak-
ness in the higher brackets of ecclesiastical
guidance and directions. Our schools and col-
Jeges are passing through the period of exper-
imentaticn. As Negro teachers increase, the
white teachers withdraw. In most eases they
have practically disappeared. The governing
boards are and should oe poseminareis white
men of the highest g and distinction.
There should always be colored men on trustee
boards tor colored schools, But they should
never, in the present American mood or mind,
constitute the majority, or even equality of
membership. The two races will not function
in comparable numbers and coordinate fune-
tions in any equation. The pronounced majority
should be either white or black. Our trustee
boards need a majority of colored members as
consultants to keep the management in har-
mony with the just feeling and aspiration of
the benefited race. Purely Ngro organizations
‘in education, religion, politics or business, need
white consultation and advice to keep them-
selves in alignment with the up-to-date meth-
ods and standards of the time.
All praise and honor to Miss Overton for
the patriotism of her suggestion. When the
whites join the N.A.A.C.P. their motive is
Iy altruistic and only secondarily selfish. When
the Negro joins his motive is mainly selfish
and altruistic only in a secondary sense. When-
ever any Negro is lynched every Negro is po-
tentially lynched. Let us hope that Mise Over-
ton’s suggestion will bear fruit and that high-
minded whites will, rally to the standard of
‘the NAACP. But if our tried and trusted
friends expects to see any considerable white
membership within the rank and file of the or-
ganization I fear she is reckoning without her

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JULY 12, 1
Texas Celebrates || Differences Be
Failure of Bill . Pointed out b
By WILLIAM PICKENS (aes See eee es oe
A day or so after Congress adjourned with-
passing an Anti-Lynching law, Texans
celebrated the event by lynching a young Ne-
gro. (I am writing at Houston; Texas.) The
towns of Kirbyville, Orange, and Newton.
whose names figure in its news, lie east of
Houston toward Beaumont.
‘As nearly as I can gather from sources of
information so far, and you can easily read
the truth “between ‘the lines” in the most pre-
judiced.newspaper reports, the facts are some-
what like this: ,
‘A young white woman, of a vagrant and
wayward disposition and known to men, went
to a colored laborer’s house and went to bed
with the colored man, but there is no proof of
that. At any rate somebody “tipped off” tha
sheriff and he went there and found the girl
in bed, resting peacefully and contentedly and
evidently acting on her own free will.
When a southern white man finds a white
woman in such a situation be invariably pays
& tribute to white womanhood by concluding
she has been having intercourse with the col
ored man.
‘This young woman is about 20 years old at
least. “The newspapers try to put her age
low, of course, so as to win sympathy for the
savagery of the lynching, but they are not
consistent about it: some admit that she was
over 18, and others assert that she was “a
white girl of 17” to get it below the official
Tage of consent.”
| ‘This girl had been out with a white man the
evening before the sheriff found her in the
Negro’s cabin. The white man had got her
drunk and abandoned her by the roadside.
Who knows but that she only sought shelter in
the colored Inborer’s home? And in all evi-
dence, what ever happened, she willingly par-
ticipated in it.
‘The mob has sealed that Negro’s lips with
death, so that he cannot now tell his story.
Mobs like to keep the Negro from talking, in
such cases. But we notice that the sheriff
not only locked up and arrested the colored
man, but that he also put into jail the white
woman whom he found peacefully and willing-
ly abiding in the Negro’s house,
Evidently that sheriff considered the woman
‘guilty, in spite of all his talk (after the lynch-
ing;) about'the girl's being in a seeming daze,
‘as if she had been drugged, and so forth-and
#0 son.
This Negro laborer had no drugs—and where
on earth would a white man put a white we-
man in jail instead of sending her home or to
the hospital, when he ound her in a Negro’s
house “obviously attacked” (as he said) and
in bad condition? That is too thin a lie—
besides nobody so far has let the girl do any
talking at all for herself.
A court and not a mob was the proper
agency to inquire into this case and to deal
With it.
Some recent experiences of my own can
throw some light on what happens. Colored
men. everywhere, especially in the south, ean
recall similar incidents,
‘When the editor of the Black Dispatch and
I were recently touring the state of Oklahoma
in his Buick which had a comfortable rumble
seat, we traveled 2,500 miles in all parts of
the state. Seldom did we go a hundred miles
by day or early evening without having some
white man, usually a couple of white women,
who were tramping or hiking, to try to “thumb
a ride” or to induce us to pick them up, It be-
came an expected nuisance, but what we al-
ways did, of course, was to step on the gas,
and to observe the thumbing operations only
out of the corner of the eyes.
‘On one occasion we observed a trick: as we
sped by the woman who was waving and call-
ing, we saw a man, evidently her companion,
iyiag’ in the gutter’ and the grass just a few
feet behind her, waiting to see if she would be
able to stop us. Perhaps he only put the wo-
man forward as the best bait to catch a ride,
But who knows?
On another occasion when I was travelling
alone in Oklahoma, a white girl, saying she
was 18 years old and was leaving home be-
cause of the “cruelty” of her stepfather, ask-
ed me if I would not get her a place to stay
‘among colored people in Muskogee whither our
bus was bound. I was “just passing through”
and “unacquainted in Muskogee.”
/, This situation causes experienced colored
Americans, especially in the south, to refuse
weet oaks ander, normal circumstances, be
‘the promptings of humanity: one well-known
colored citizen of Galveston, Texas, told me
that once far out on the road he saw one white
woman lying down, ill or hurt or simulating
.Allness or injury, while the other one tried to
‘wave him to stop.
‘He stepped on the gas, and has never known
whether he passed up a chance to serve hu-
manity or dodged the danger of being robbed
‘or blackmailed. :

Differences Between Parties
Pointed out by Manuel Roque
(Political Analyst and Writer)
Speaking of the two major politi-
cal parties in the country, some-
thing about which we are going to
hear no end of discussion with
the next few months and probably
years, there are many reasons why
the Negro should support either
of the two as a plain American
citizen and nothing else.
The issues between these tne
parties—Demoeratic and Republi-
can—have heen issues which have
not affected the Negro as a race,
but which indeed have affected him
as an individual citizen and in like
manner individuals of other groups
within the jurisdiction of our goy-
ernment. For the differences be-
tween these two parties are funda-
mental. They are merely policies
which as a whole affect everyone
regardless of creed, color, or posi-
tion.
‘Truthfully, the differences be-
tween the Democratic and Republi-
ean party are fundamental. But
even then it is not difficult to fin
the line of clevege and determine
the reasons why a good Democrat
and a good Republican can both be
good Americans. Both work as
they think best in the interest of
the country as a whole, and this is
because the line of demareation be-
tween the policies of the two par-
ties seem so slender as to provoke
some degree of interest in the mind
‘of the people without affecting the
sense of loyalty and ism
that moves their heart.
The Beginning of
the Two Parties
But there is a great difference
between these two parties. As
truth of this statement one had
but to study the proceedings of the
Continental Congress; the Consti-
tutional Conventions; and the pro-
ceedings of the first eight congress-
es under the accepted Constitution.
‘The two major parties, originally
called Federalist and’ Republican,
presented two divergent views on
the fundamentals of free govern-
ment. The two outstanding lead-
ers representing these views were
Hamilton and Jefferson,
‘Their difference were fundament-
al. Those who agreed with Jeffer-
son became affiliated with the then
Republican Party, which is known
today as the party of Jefferson, or
the Democratic Party. Those who
agreed with Hamilton, the Federal-
ists, are today in theory the Repub-
licans. In other words, the Repub-
lican party of today is the succes-
sor of the Federalist Party, which
believed that the objective of free
government cannot be achieved by
giving the people the greatest. mea-
sure of personal liberty consistent
swith ‘public security.” And some
how the Republicans of today, still
following Hamilton’s theory,’ still
believe in this feudalistic idea,
Jefferson's party—the Democrat-
ie party of today—believes in a
government subjected to actual’
control by all the people. On. the
other hand, the Hamiltonians—the
Republicans—believe that the peo-
ple are not capable of wisely gov-
erning themselves, and that gov-
ernment should beso organized am
to deprive the people of effective
control of the policies of govers
ment.
President Roosevelt today is the
greatest exponent of the Jefferson-
ian theory that the people should
take an active part in governmen\,
We have seen this theory in action
during the past year by seeing men
of all classes and conditions help-
ing the government in the solution
of the many and perplexing prob-
lems heaped on the nation and the
people by the Hamiltonian idea of
@ government by a privileged few.
‘Tariff Has Been
Bone of Contention
For it can be safely said that
the Republican party of today does
not essentially differ in any wise
from the Federalist party of a hun-
dred and some odd years ago. Their
philosophy js still that of giving
special advantages in the form of
monopolices to manufacturing and
other industries, believing that
Erorperity thus erented will perco-
late down to the masses and thus
inerease the purchasing power of
the people,
In contrast, the Democratic view-
point is that’ of executing an eco-
nomic policy that would afford all
classes equal opportunity, distribu-

ting all the benefits as well as bur-

ple. They also believe that so long
as the prosperity of producers and
wage earners depends upon the at-
titude of capital and industry so
long will the American people face
8 discontented and distressed situa-
tion.
For many years the bone of con-
tention between these two ‘major
parties has been the tariff. The Re-
publican party on more than one
occasion: has declared itself in fay-
oF of a tari rate suficiently high
to equalize the cost of, production
in this country and other countries.
But here the two parties differ
categorically on the application of
the same policy, for the Republi-
can view-point would be determin-
ed by the view-point of the manu-
facturers and industrialists that
from a long period of years have
been the beneficiaries.of Republi-
can tariff legislation. Whereas the
Democratic party has declared for
a tariff that would permit effec-
tive competition and insure agains»
the cut-throat competition and
monopoly that precipitated the eco-
nomic debacle witnessed during the
last few years,
National and Racial
Issues Face Us
But here the discussion will end
as to why the Negro should a
port any political party on
basis of a plain American citizen,
All this naturally affects him as
such, but other things affect him
more directly. And those things
that affect him may truthfully be
said not to be Sf his own making.
As a plain citizen all national is-
sues are his issues, but as 2 mem-
ber of a minority group he has bis
‘own issues to face,
It is becoming more and more
self-evident that the colored man
has to support the political party
that offers the greatest opportuni-
ty for the general advancement of
the race in any and all matters per-
taining to the advancement of the
American nation as a whole. He
will therefore continue to support
the party that gives him the great-
est guarantee of self help and ad-
vancement. It is somehow difficult
to believe that only a few years
past the Negro was the political
football of a party, while today he
is an accepted entity in the admin-
istration of government if not in
the political life of the nation. But
on his onward march to still great
‘@r recognition there should be no
let _up. i
This is the greatest opportunity
the Negro race ever had to prove
its worth, loyalty and patriotism to
the national government. And the
opportunity has come from above
and not from below. For from the
beginning the Administration took
the initiative and loudly proclaimed
just what benefits were in store
for the colored race in general.
Republicans are Adept
at Subterfuges
‘Unlike the Republican party that
hid under a cloak of gubterfuges
and went as far as to fnsult Negro
‘womanhood jn its nillyswilly cater-
ing to special interests, the Demo-
cratic party has conclusively shown
that so far it is willing to do, the
right thing for the colored people
of the country. It is giving action
where others ® gave excuses, It has
actually raised the political and
econmic level of the Negro, and if
present attitude are any criterion
there is much to be hoped for in
the future,
But so far as the Negro and
other unprivileged classes are con-
cerned, this is a period of transition
almost identical to the post-Civil
War enforcement of constitutional
guarantees. Almost _ everything
will stand or fall on the courage,
‘conviction and loyalty of the people
‘ita is fighting to safeguard, and
this applies more to the ‘"-r0
than to any other group. For the
Negro has no organization or ef-
fective mouthpiece with which to
carry the message to Garcia. It has
some able representatives in the
halls of government in whom the
authorities rely to see the reflec-
tion of the hopes and aspiration of
the people. Everything will stand
or fall on what they see in these
men through their words and deeds.

At any rate, what the FACA

their declaration:

One of the most interesting places to stay while on vacation (that is, if you can only so arrange) is "inside your income." One of the best places to stay out of (or rather so it would seem) is the hospital. In the case of Miss Camille Nickerson of Howard University School of Music, however, the hospital experience really wasn't so bad. On the contrary, except perhaps for the very day when she "said goodbye" to a hateful appendix, her stay at Carson's Hospital was apparently pleasant. One happy feature about it (from her friends' viewpoint at least) was the fact that for two whole weeks the lovely Camille had one fixed address. You see so popular is this particular convalescent she is really rather hard to find, especially during vacation time. But the hospital held her fast a while, and now her many friends are marking on their calendars "July 1, 2, 3, 4, 10, etc., found Miss Nickerson in."

Of all the charming June brides surely there is none more bewitching than the wife of the Rev.

Sometime ago Mr. and Mrs. Otto Scruggs of Adams Street were in the midst of preparations for a visit to the Century of Progress Exposition with a couple of friends. In the meantime the popular Otto was made Chairman of a mammoth amusement venture (Boat Picnic to River View). The Asbury M. E. Church Men's Club (Elvin R. Sheppard, president) is sponsoring it. And now I'd be willing to risk my last low "buffalo" on the guess that Mr. and Mrs. Scruggs will see Chicago. But it won't be as per schedule. It will be sometime after August 4th. For that's the day young Mr. Scruggs must "engineer" an excursion. And with the whole Club ably backing him and his charming little Mrs. there to aid him. The Boat Picnic to River View is bound to be a gr - a -nd affair.
It's really a shame the way Dame Fashion plays tricks on Milady. Take the matter of milinery, for instance. No sooner had Miss Ever-so-Smart (and Mrs. too) decided at just what angle and over which pretty eye to place her cartwheel; no sooner had she begun a sweet little ditty blessing her mirror for the lovely image envisioned there; no sooner had she sworn that because the cartwheel had really transformed her into a charmer, she'd live the rest of her days and maybe die right by it; no sooner had she said and done all these things, when along came Madame Fashion and shouted out quite loudly "Make way for the new Beret". And now what will Milady do? Will she dare to stand her ground? Will she forget the frequent ditates of the fickle Lady Vogue and keep on bravely clinging to her little cartwheel? She won't. She's already hunting a hat shop to buy herself a beret!

Man Held After Vain Effort to Balk Seizure Of Car by U.S. Marshals
Wild Ride Through Streets Result of Man's Determination to Keep Auto MACHINE TAKEN TO SATISFY JUDGMENT
Deputy Bradshaw is Injured as He is Forced to Smash Window Pane with Fist
Thwarted in his attempt to dislodge two deputy United States marshals from the running board of his automobile and thus avoid seizure of the vehicle, Eddie Yarborough, 37, 1520 Ninth Street Northwest, was compelled to face charges of assault and reckless driving in Police Court, Monday morning. Bonds of $300 each were fixed for his release.
Yarborough, according to police, sought to escape in the car when the two officers, W. Tecumseh Bradshaw, and H. S. Coates, the latter white, made an effort to take it in attachment on a judgment Running the windows up, Yarborough locked himself in and tried to drive away.
As the deputy marshals leaped to the running board of the man's car, the latter speeded up. And as they clung desperately to the sides of the speeding automobile the driver swerved from one side of the street to the other.
At the corner of Tenth and N Streets, Bradshaw smashed the window on the side he occupied, reached in and pulled the keys from the ignition switch. As the vehicle rolled to a stop, Yarborough was taken into custody and held for the arrival of police from the Second Precinct. Miner cuts on the hand were sustained by Mr. Bradshaw.
When arraigned, Yarborough entered pleas of not-guilty and demanded jury trials, Judge Gus A. Schuld, before whom the traffic case was scheduled, set July 19 for the hearing. Judge Isaac R. Hitt docked the assault case for July 31.
Lawyer's Plea Unavailing as Client Gets 360 Days
A brilliant plea, launched by a defense attorney failed to move Judge Isaac R. Hitt, sitting in United States Branch of Police Court, Monday morning, and as a consequence, William Perry, 706 Ninth Street, Southwest, was moved into the cell-block until he could move a $15 fine into the hands of the court auditor. Perry, accused of assaulting Albert Lott, recently arrived from Newark, N.J., declared that he struck Lott when the latter reached into his pocket for a knife following a dispute over a dice game at the Ninth Street address, Friday. His defense was based on the contention that he had sought to compel Lott and several other youths to dispense with the gambling and leave his house.
Lott and a friend denied this, and asserted that Perry was "running" a game and that he attacked the former without provocation. They both declared that Perry did not order them out of the house until after the fracas. The defense lawyer set forth his client's right to "protect his castle no matter how humble," and held that Perry's act was purely in self-defense, but Judge Hitt and Assistant United States Attorney David A. Hart would have none of it.

Brick Tossing Results in Smashing of 12 Windows; One Convicted
The story of a Fourth of July free-for-all which resulted in the destruction of .12 windows and slight injuries to several of the participants was brought into United States Branch of police court, Judge Isaac R. Hitt, presiding, Monday morning.
When the story was complete, all the versions drawn into one and a common conclusion reached, it was felt that Mrs. Jessie Graves, 69, Fenton Street, Northwest was guilty of the charges of assault and destroying private property, and yet was somewhat justified in her actions.
It seems that Mrs. Graves went next door after her errant husband, and when she did the proprietress or what-have-wa of the next door house took objections to the visit. She and her friends, according to the defendant, jumped her and began tossing bricks here, there and everywhere.
Not to be outdone the startled tossing a few herself, mixing a few bottles in among the masonary. Freddie Graves, the husband, somehow or other managed to stay out of the mix-up although he was the central figure.
At any rate Mrs. Sapp, 71, Fenton treet, saw an even dozen window-panes shattered, and became peeved to the extent that she demanded the arrest of Mrs. Graves. The latter was granted a personal bond imposition on the destroying property change, and was fined $10 for the assault.
Detective Pittman Shoots Robbery Suspect in Leg
Detective Daniel D. Pittman, assigned to the Second Precinct, Saturday shot Eddie Johnson, 16-year-old robbery suspect, in the left ankle as the youth attempted to elude him in an alley near Sixteenth and R Streets, Northwest. The boy was treated at Freedmen's Hospital.
According to the detective's report, he and Detective F B. Ashe were called to 1440 R Street, Northwest, to investigate an attempted robbery. When the two officers arrived on the scene, Harvey V. Avery, resident of the address, pointed out two men as the robbery suspects. Both detectives gave chase. Ashe caught one of the men, the other fled down an alley with Detective Pittman in pursuit. Pittman said he fired one shot in the air in an attempt to scare the boy but instead Johnson turned and went toward his rear pocket. He then fired a second shot the bullet hitting the boy in the ankle. Johnson lives at 219-a Morgan Street, Northwest.
Struck Her But He Doesn't Know Why He Did It
Pleading guilty to an unexplainable assault on Mrs. Nellie Fergy (white), John Brown, no fixed address, was sentenced to 6 months in jail by Police Court Judge Isaac R. Hitt, Monday morning. Brown told the court that he struck the woman and knocked her down on the street Saturday, but merely shook his head when the court questioned him as to what prompted the act.
Noisy Guards
Neighborhood Aroused at 2 A.M. by Employees of Banneker. Pool
A group of wrathful citizens in the 2500 block of Georgia Avenue were aroused early Monday morning by the loud shouting of guards and employees of the new Banneker Swimming Pool who alarmed the neighborhood with yelling and swearing while cleaning the pool. Police of No. 2 Precinct were called in before the guards were quieted. The loud yelling of the men started about 2 a.m. and lasted until nearly 4 a.m. It was also reported that several of the men were cleaning the pool while in the nude. Glascoe Mack, former Howard University football captain and in charge of the night crew, denied that any of his men were naked. The bright flood lights made the pool visible for blocks and the sweepers could be clearly seen as they plied brooms and mons.
Captain Koover, chief of the welfare bureau, stated to the Tribune that the pool is cleaned at night so as to keep it open each day. It the big concrete pool, which would require a full day to clean would necessitate closing it for a day to bathers, he said. However, he promised that with cooler weather it would] be possible to close it one day in each week in order to permit cleaning. His office immediately launched an investigation into the unusual noise. Brooms and mops are used for cleaning purposes, he said and not mouths.
STRICKEN WHILE VISITING, MAN DIES IN STREET
Sudden Death Comes As He Walks to Parked Car for Fresh Air
Suddenly seized with an attack of illness, Sunday, Robert H. Dulaney, 43, of 807 T Street, Northwest, walked from the house at 144 Seaton Place, Northwest, where he was visiting, to his parked car a few yards from the premises, slumped to the sidewalk and died before medical aid could reach him. It was his intention to get fresh air by sitting in the machine. Friends of the man, Edna Fisher and Mary White, of the Seaton Place address, rushed to the side of the fallen man and summoned Emergency Hospital ambulance but their efforts proved futile.

EX-ATHLETE SUED FOR MAINTENANCE BY YOUNG WIFE
Charles (Alden) Brown Cited for Nonsupport of Mate and Minor Child
Charles A. Brown, messenger in the Interior Department and onetime active in local athletic circles, was sued for separate support and maintenance by his wife, Mrs. Clarice Tyler Brown, in a petition filed in District Supreme Court, last Friday morning. Mrs. Brown's bill requests provisions for herself and minor child from her husband.
Attorney Augustus W. Gray, counsel for the plaintiff, cites the ownership of an automobile by Brown as provocation for Mrs. Brown's act. The complainant asserts that although the defendant has contributed only $55 to the car itself and two-and-a-half-yearly since February of 1993, he has been able to purchase and retain a car for his own pleasures purposes.
Charges Cruelty
The petition further states that the couple were married December 15, 1930; that they lived together as man and wife until June 5, 1932 when alleged cruelty on the part of the husband forced Mrs. Brown to leave their home at 1319 S Street, Northwest, and return to live with her mother and stepfather at 1345 S Street, Northwest. The wife states that Brown receives a salary of $1,600 per year as a government messenger and that except for the small amount cited above, none of the money has been expended in the interest of her child and her. She also claims that numerous efforts on her part to obtain employment have proved futile. Brown is 24 years old, his wife 23.

Stork Wages Gallant Battle Against Heat
Those of us who look upon the stork as a pretty swell guy had to appreciate the battle the long-billed rascal put up in his effort to make the world a less lonely place to live in, during the past week. As hot as it was he carried on, staggering under the weight of responsibility and the punishment of Old Sol.
From Monday to Monday he had as tough a time of it as he has had since he was a little storkling, or whatever baby stodks are. He began the week Tuesday by bringing in a load of eight newcomers, one by one, and two of a kind. These latter went to Mama and Papa Julius and Lottie Rush.
