FIRST SELF-HELP PROJECT STARTS HERE Sculptor Reb whose marriage at the home of her parents last Wednesday was one of the outstanding social events of the week. Mrs. Shields was formerly Miss Esther Marie Jones, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Earl Taylor, 1221 T Street, Northwest. Mother Faces Gunfire In Attempt to Shield Son From Murderer 21-Year-Old Youth Shot to Death During Argument With Sister's "Boy Friend" WOMAN'S SHOULDER IS SINGED BY POWDER Mrs. Joanna Thornton Makes Man Miss With Two Shots Before Mark is Found The age old tale of a mother's battle to save her son was repeated for the benefit of a coroner's jury probing the shooting to death of William Thornton, 21 years old, of 29 DeFrees Street, Northwest, by his sister's "boy friend," Bennie Waller, 1224 Kirby Street, Northwest. The story was told Wednesday, two weeks after young Thornton had been fatally wounded during an altercation in front of his home. The lad, shot shortly after midnight on July Fourth, died approximately 24 hours later in Freedmen's Hospital. It was the oft-repeated story of the female animal striving to shield her young one from the threatened attack of an enemy. Mrs. Joanna Thornton, mother of the slain youth, tearfully described how she had stepped between her son and his assailant when the latter returned to the scene of an earlier fist fight armed with a revolver. She told how she had tried to ward off the approach of young Waller, and how the belligerent boy had fired around her body twice before a bullet finally found its mark in the abdomen of the victim. She told of being burned by the powder as one of the discha-ces made close to her shoulder. Thornton's death followed a shooting which had resulted from an earlier argument between Walder and him. The two had engaged in a fist fight a few minutes before Mrs. Thornton intervened for the first time and stopped them. Waller left the scene, went away and returned with a revolver. Miss Marie Thornton, 17-year-old sister of the slain lad, declared that the shooting had not been precluded by any further words between her brother and Waller. Waller is said to have been a frequent visitor at the house, being described as "going with" another sister, Catherine, 19. After the shooting, Waller left the scene. He has not been seen nor heard from since. Police are conducting a search for him, holding constant belief that an early arrest is imminent. Petition Seeks Improvement of Health Conditions in Race Recorder of Deeds Heads Battle Against Unsatisfactory Health Situation Here; Would Set Up Preventive, Remedial and Administrative Guidance BISHOP BROOKS FUNERAL TO BE HELD MONDAY ST. LOUIS MO— Bishop W. Sampson Brooks, A. M.E. Presiding Bishop of Confer- ences in Texas, died in St. Louis, Mo., at noon last Sunday. Funeral services will be held in three sections. The first portion was held last Tuesday in San An- tonio, Tex. The second will be held on Thursday at St. Louis, Mo. The third portion will be held at Bethe- l A.M.E. Church in Baltimore, Md., on Sunday at 2 p.m. Remains will be interred at New Bedford, Mass., next Monday. Bishop Brooks served as Bishop in West African four years prior to his assignment in Texas. Petition Seeks Health Condition Recorder of Deeds Heads B Health Situation Here; W Remedial and Adm Three aspects of the health problem among Negroes of this city were encouched in a petition drawn up at a meeting of the Federation of Civic Associations, held at the Phyllis Wheatley Young Women's Chrisman Association, Ninth Street and Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest, Monday night. These were preventive medical care, premedical care and public health administration. Spurred on by a dramatic appeal of Dr. William J. Tompkins, recorder of deeds, and formerly assistant health commissioner of Kansas City, Mo., a large gathering of citizens adopted the petition and selected a committee of nine to present the draft to the Commissioners of the District of Columbia tomorrow (Friday) morning. Charges Neglect Dr. Tompkins asserted the Negro health problem was serious because it had been neglected and it was his belief that the local Health Department had never adopted a preventive program, or properly informed Congress of the needs of the colored population Washington Tribune MOTHER FACES SLAYER'S FIRE 10 Negroes Selected for "Secret Police Force" Here VOL. XIV, No. 12 MOTH 10 Negro MAN CUT TO DEATH IN OUARREL Knife Wound Proves Fatal to Alleged Jester; Slayer Held Resentment over being teased about a year-old fight resulted in the fatal stabbing of James Simmons, 637 Florida Avenue, Northwest, during a francas at 1818 Wiltberger Street, Northwest, last Saturday. His assailant, and the one who objected to the railery, was ordered held for he action of the grand jury by a coroner's jury following an inquest at the District Morgue, Wednesday. Floyd (Tillie) Partillo confessed slayer of Simmons, took the stand in his own behalf and claimed his act was in self defense. Simmons, witnesses testified, was stabbed in the midst of an argument which began when he recognized Partillo as one of the principals in a melee on lower New Jersey Avenue in 1933. The latter, it was disclosed, suffered a beating at the hands of several men who set upon him at the time. Mrs. Estelle Busy, at whose home the fight occurred, testified that she had compelled Simmons to leave the house when it became apparent from their argument that the two men were going to fight. She stated that only two blows, one by the victim and the other by Partillo, were struck. She further declared that she saw no knife in the hand of either of the two men. Two other witnesses, Mitchell Bennett, 725 Third Street, Northwest, and Cornelius Dorssey, 1110 Fourth Street, Northwest also declared that the stabbing occurred after Mrs. Busey had ordered Simmons to leave the house. Neither, however, claimed to have seen a knife. Howard McCulloch, a barber living 1611 New Jersey Avenue, told the jury that he met Simmons walking on Florida Avenue near Bohrer Street, Northwest, and seeing the blood-dripping from his clothes placed him in an automobile and carried him to Freedmen's Hospital where he later died. Improvement of stations in Race Battle Against Unsatisfactory Would Set Up Preventive, instructive Guidance The establishment of six well-baby stations is requested in the petition as one of the preventive measures. These would be located in Anacostia, Deanwood, First and L Streets and Twenty-fourth and G Streets, in the Northwest; Third and I Streets in the Southwest, and at Navy Place between Sixth and Seventh Streets in the Southeast. Would Fight Death Rate Tuberculosis clinics, also, were requested, to be established to afford a beginning for an intensive campaign in reduction of the colored death rate. In view of indications of a survey, that only 805 hospital beds exist in 12 hospitals here, for colored patients, including Freedmen's and tuberculosis hospitals, a colored tuberculosis hospital, with 300 beds, manned by colored personnel throughout, including an assistant superintendent, was requested. An additional wing for colored patients at Gallinger Hospital was asked, to be under the direction of a colored assistant superintendent. (Continued on page 3) A. SUMMER PLAYGR'D LUCAS DENIES HE DIRECTORS NAMED FAVORS JIM CROW NEW YORK—Signal honors have been awarded to two Washington musicians during the past week, R. Todd Duncan, baritone, and William D. Allen, pianist. Mr. Duncan was chosen to sing the baritone role of Alfo in Cavalleria Rusticana, the Italian opera selected to open up the series scheduled by the Aeolian Negro Opera Company under the direction of Peter Creatore. His rich and distinctive voice enchanced by his innate dramatic feeling brought unanimous praise, and commendation from the New York critics. In quoting from a few of the New York critics, the New York Journal reported that "Todd Duncan as Alfo made the big hit of the opera. He sang and characterized the part with much gusto." Quoting the New York Daily News, "Todd Duncan made the usually insignificant role of Alto the outstanding role of the opera. Here is fresh operatic material giv. SUMMER PLAYGR'D DIRECTORS NAMED Thomas J. Anderson and Miss Olive Rose were named as supervisors of summer activities for District Playgrounds, early this week.

Many Washingtonians drove up to attend this performance which took place in the Mecca Temple Auditorium. According to all reports, both operas, "Cavaleria Rusticana" and "Emperor Jones" was most creditably and artistically done. Others appearing in the cast and familiar to Washington audiences were Abbie Mitchell and Charlotte Wallace Murray. After an audition before the world famous pianist, composer and teacher, Leopold Godowsky, William Allen was accepted by Mr. Godowsky as a private student. Mr. Allen will continue his lessons with Mr. Godowsky this month and resume his study in the fall. Both Mr. Duncan and Mr. Allen are well known to the city music lovers. Both are instructors in the Howard University School of Music and concertize under the direction of the Carl Jefferson Concert Management of this city. LUCAS DENIES HE FAVORS JIM CROW Dr. M. Grant Lucas, president of the Columbian Educational Association and principal of the Wormley School here, denied that he favored segregation in a recent speech made before the National Educational Association. "Our fondest hope," Mr. Lucas told the assembled teachers and school administrators, "lies in the preservation of the autonomy of our schools. Our schools have problems which are distinctly ours. We have always felt and always shall feel that these problems can best be handled by teachers of our own flesh and blood." Mr. Lucas told The Tribune this week that what he meant was that colored persons were best fitted to cope with distinctive problems of their race the same as a Negro parent was best suited to raise Negro children. It is significant that many who took exception to Mr. Lucas's remarks are among those who are clamoring for special "Negro jobs" in the local New Deal administration rather than to be included in the general setup of the various government projects. --- Miss Burroughs Heads First District Self-Help Cooperative Project 10 COLORED MEMBERS OF HIDDEN 100 Dr. William H.

King of the F.E.R.A. concerning the Self-Help projects, met Monday evening, July 16, at the National Training School for Women and Girls and formed what is to be known as the Northeast Self-Help Cooperative. This organization, the first of its kind in the District of Columbia, has initiated many projects for the unemployed of this section. A laundry which was given to the organization by Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, head of the National Training School for Women and Girls, will be renovated through funds provided by the F.E.R.A. for the purpose of housing the following projects: the emergency relief center, the sewing center, canning center, a laundry, a dry cleaning plant, garment manufacturing and mattress making, shoe repairing, upholstering, a barber shop, a commissary and any other activities essential to the cooperative. Great interest and enthusiasm is being manifested in these new projects by all the Northeast citizens and already the canning project is in operation in the domestic science room of the National Training School and the sewing center will begin its operation on July 29. At this meeting the constitutional committee made its report and the constitution which will govern this body was voted upon and accepted. Miss Burroughs President The following persons were elected as officers of the Cooperative: Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, president; H. D.

Porter Freed Advertising Man's Case is Nolle Prossed by District Attorney Two cases of assault and one a threat against Luther Porter, advertising solicitor for an out-of-town weekly paper, was nolle pressed in Police Court Wednesday morning. Porter was arrested several weeks ago when he was charged by Israel Ferguson. 13 R Street, Northwest, with assaulting him. After being released under bond of $300 Porter is alleged to have again assaulted Ferguson and a third charge of threats was placed against the man when he is said to have threatened Ferguson after being released a second time. Porter was under a bond totaling $900 when he faced the judge Wednesday. After three scheduled trials his attorney, Thomas Beckett, succeeded in having the case nolle probed. Porter failed to appear at the last scheduled hearing when his attorney said his client was too ill to come to court. Wilson's Remains to the Winds" Release of Ashes from Aero-Home; Unusual Act is in of Deceased Physician ing his ashes were taken in an aeroplane by Malcolm Ashe one of the few scattered Negro aviators in the country, and flown into the air. Ashe, who conducts classes in flying in Rockville, Md., let the dust fall as he reached a position directly above the late residence of Dr. Wilson 1515 Tenh Street, Northwest. Although extremely reticent when approached for information about the unusual incident, Mrs. Wilson told the Tribune that what had been done was in honor of a request of her deceased husband, Dr. Wilson she declared had often said he wanted to be cremated and wished to have his ashes "blown to the winds." And only his soul survives. Citizens "Observers" Selected to Cut Down on Traffic Violations Some eight or ten colored persons were selected Tuesday by Maj. Ernest Brown, superintendent of police, to serve on the "Hidden Hundred," a group of citizens who will take notes on traffic violators and report such violations to police. Major Brown told The Tribune Wednesday that the names of the colored members of the "Hidden Hundred" were submitted to him by George W. Beasley, president of the Federation of Civic Associations. A total of 100 have been selected to serve as "traffic observers." Each of the 100 selected was given a number and his identity securely hidden. When a member of the secret organization sees a traffic violator a report will be made to police and the guilty person will receive a form letter tolling him of the time and place of the violation. If the same person commits another offense he will again receive a warning. A certain number of warnings will result in an arrest, but the "observers" are not given powers to make arrests. Even police officers do not know who are members of the "Hidden Hundred." Only Major Brown has this information. Cards are issued to members of the secret force, but they will hardly be used unless they care to show them to their friends. Even Mr. Bensely does not know who the colored persons are as he submitted a number of names and Major Brown selected those who were appointed members. The plan was started in order to cut down on the large number of traffic accidents here. The system is said to have worked well in Pittsburgh, the first city to try it. YOUTH ARRESTED FOR LURING GIRL TO APARTMENT George Honesty, 19-year-old youth, of the 1900 block of U Street, who was arrested recently and charged with luring a small girl into a vacant apartment where he made an attempted assault on her, was released this week into the custody of his attorney, Benjamin L. Gaskins, after being given a suspended sentence. The boy was later sent to Virginia by his parents where he is to receive medical attention. According to police, the girl who is a member of a well known and prominent Washington family, was lured into the apartment by the youth several weeks ago. The matter was later reported to police who arrested the boy. Honesty was sent to Gallinger Hospital for mental observation, and doctors of that institution reported the boy had the mentality of an 8-year-old child and was suffering with a social disease. He was later placed on probation after an attempt was made to have him sent to the District Reform School. Attorney Thomas Beckert was associated with Mr. Gaskins in the defense. 3,000 DELEGATES FOUNDER OF TO ATTEND A.M.E.

STRIKE RUMOR AT SCHOOL DENIED BY WASHINGTON (Continued from page 9) states. Atlanta Equal to Other Schools "It was the desire of Mr. Harry Hopkins, National Administrator of the FERA, that the beneficiaries of these fellowships be sent to approved member schools in the American Association of Schools of Social Work in order that they should receive credit for work done that would not only eventually obtain for them a diploma, but would also make them eligible for membership in the American Association of Social Workers. The Atlanta School of Social Work, like the New York School-of Social Work and the Chicago School of Social Service Administration is a member of he Schools Association. It is the plan of the state administration, to allow these students to alternate between work and study until the full two-year curriculum of the schools is completed and the students qualify for a diploma. In situtes of social work have been set up at some liberal colleges for the benefit of ERA workers, but students matriculating there will not receive credit toward a diploma from an approved school of social work. Matter of Economy If there had been an approved white school of social work in Georgia, all of Georgia's white quota would have been sent to Georgia. Because of the location in Atlanta of the Atlanta School of Social Work, the only Negro member of the American Association of Schools of Social Work, most of the Negro students from the southern states were sent to this school. State relief administrators took advantage of the proximity of the school and its more reasonable tuition and sent a larger number than they could have financed if they had sent them to cnither New York or Chicago. "It was the plan of the Washington Administration to begin these schools in the fall, but state administrators felt keenly the need of workers receiving immediate training that the first sessions were set up almost over night. In face it was not until after summer sessions had started that some state administrators knew that they would be allowed to send workers away to study. Some students necessarily were given only a short notice of attending the school. Since their arrival, however, they have received communications from their respective state administrators which have cleared up all points in their minds. Funds Are Limited "There is some differential in the amount allowed by different states which is due to the fact that the appropriation for this first session in most cases had to be taken from the appropriation already allowed the administrators for general relief expenses. "At the end of the six weeks' class room period on July 27, the sessions will conclude with a six weeks' period of supervised field work training. In order to care for the large number of students and in order to give each student the highest type of personal supervision during this period of practical field work training, the regular faculty of the Atlanta School of Social Work will be augmented by several experienced field work supervisors, loaned by some of the highest grade social agencies in the country. "The three months fall and winter sessions of the ERA schedl will begin in September. Already many of the student workers who, according to agreement should return at the end of three months' summer session are petitioning their state administrators to allow them to continue on through the fall and winter sessions." Rev. Ephraim Speaks The Rev. William S. Ephriam was guest speaker at the Vermont Avanue Baptist Church of which he is a member Sunday night. He spoke on "Christ a Christian's Consolation."

The contest, chof< full of exciting moments from start to finish, saw the end brought about by Lindsay's leaping one-handed stab of a screaming line drive off the bat of “Toots” Brown, slugging right-felder of the local aggregation, with the tying and winning runs'on the bases, Previous Game Recalled * ‘That ninth inning, which has been talked about from that day to this, found Willie Hope, recent- ly acquired local _firstbaseman, punching a two-base hit to left field in his pinchhit effort for Spike Bland, "Dale pitcher.

Little doubt is held that the crowd of 4,000 which viewed the contest on July 8, would be exceed. ed by at least ‘another thozsanc when the two outfits open hostili- ties this coming Sabbath. Last Sunday's game between th Heurich Brewers (white) and th Harrisburg Giants also is believer to have materially aided the effor' of local promoters to build up base ball among Negroes in Washing ton. That encounter, won by th Brewers, was marked by sterling play and, like the Sunday before was free of disagreements an¢ sluggishness, two characteristics of colored baseball in the past.

Scores were 15-6 and 10-9, the latter a 7-inning afair by agreement, ‘The 1933 city champions started on their 15-hit attack that won the opening fracas early in the day. A literal bombardment of the offer- ings of Arnett, Tree pitcher netted them 3 runs in the first frame, 4 more in the second and another’ in the third, sufficient tallies to elinch the victory. Virgil Coates and Bus Frazier shared the mound burden and between them held the South- west lads to 9 bingles, all of which were kept scattered until the eighth stanza when 3 runs were pushed eroes by the Trees in a feeble ral "athe second affair was _decidely a more severe test for the west- enders. The Southwest outfit counted a quartet of tallies, these being equalled by the eventual win- ners in their half of the frame. Not to be thus easily thwarted the Trees returned in their second to tally 3 more. Georgetown counted 2 in their half of the inning. Wil- low Tree retaliated with another pair in their third to end the los- ers’ scoring. Georgetown went on to get a brace of runners across in each the fourth and fifth to win the game.

CHOCOLATE FACES MEDICAL TESTS NEW YORK.—Luis Guiterrez, manager of Kid Chocolate, made it known late last week that the Cuban boxing sensation who went down in dismal failure before Pete Hayes at Ebbet's Ficld. last Wed- nesday night, will be carried through rigorous tests and specie! experiments in an effo-t to regain his lost ring supremacy. Everything save the fighting heart which kept him going when Hayes had administered the most severe pasting Chocolate has. re- ceived in all his fighting years, will undergo the microsconic eyes of examination. Chocolate still has everything but his punch. This is freakish because usually the kick remains with a fighter until the end. The legs go first, then stamina, speed and coordination. Medical attention will be begun after Wednesday night's fight in Chicago with Leo Rodzk, former Golden Glove champion. After the fight, Chocolate will be shipped to Hot Springs, Ark. There he will take the waters and rest for a month. After that will come a couple of months of gymnasium work in which the Keed will con- centrate on punching. Then he will start fighting comparatively easy opponents, and gradually work back into the big time. Guiterrer’s Statement Guiterrez is credited with the statement, “Everything that money and science can do will be done to bring him back to peak form. If these measures fail, Chocolate is through for good—even though he still is a younzster.” Kid Chocolate, former feather- weight champion whe earned over $300,000 with his fets during 11 years of campaigning—-more than any other figniing man under the CHOCOLATE BEATEN BY UNHERALDED FEATHERWELGHT NEW YORK.—Just barely a hulk of his former fighting self, Kid Chocolate, the Cuban’ Bon Bon, went down in pitiable defeat be- fore Petey Hayes, an obscure featherweight, before 8,000 be ple at Ebbet’s Field, here t week. Managing through sheer grit to remain on his feet and lift his hands saggingly in defense, the one time “great” of the little fellows came nearer to the end of his trail than at any time during his boxing career. Chocolate, retired featherweight champion, the spectacular Cuban “keed” who fought them all from Tony Canzoneri, Jackie Kid Berg, Al Singer and Bat Battalino down, had little or nothing to offer in the way of resistance. He took but two rounds, the first and the sixth, and was a caricature all the way of the glistening ebony chunk who startled the faithful with his brilliance when he broke in here unannounced five years ago. piayes tore all the fight out of im with body punches in the sec- ond, floored him with lefts and rights to the jaw twice for counts of two in the third, and from then on battered him until his arms were tired. Chocolate fell once from sheer weariness. Chocolate’s eyes were cut and closing at the end. He barely could stagger. All he had left was the courage he always has dis- played. He was far from the form he displayed in rising from literal ob- livion to the place of the greatest Negro warrior the prize ring has seen in the past decade. ONE HIT GRANTED BY SLIM BARNES IN RAIAH WIN Held to a lone hit by the veteran Norman (Slim) Barnes, the youth- ful Myrtle Qgioles went down in shutout defeat before the 13-hit at- tack of the Rajah-DePriest base- ball team on the latter’s diamond, Sixtieth and Clay Streets, North- cast, last Sunday.

Negro Athletes Help to Break Down Prejudice Last week there appeared in this paper an editorial under the caption of "Negro Athletes and Race Prejudice" which with additional facts should prove to be inspirational to the boys who read this paper. The editorial began with these words: "In the fight between the black American and the white American interracial good will and a better understanding, there stands the Negro athlete in the various white colleges and universities scattered over this country who is proving a telling factor in this age old struggle. "Beginning with Eddie Tolan, from the University of Michigan, winning the double victory in the 100 and 200 meter dashes at the Olympic games in Los Angeles in August, 1932; the last three years have been propitious for the young Negro in athletics in the various white schools. "This year we have had quite a crop of outstanding young men, who by their ability have attracted world attention. With the Olympics coming in 1936 in Berlin, the prowess and records of these young men are watched with no little interest. They are making good both in athletics and in scholarship." The following could be added: Metcalfe Leads Take Ralph Metcalfe, who ran second to Tolan in the Olympics at Los Angeles and has just completed his college course at Marquette in Milwaukee, Wis., is the world famous Negro runner today. His tour of Europe last summer where he ran and won 23 races against the best dash men in Europe, places him at the head of the list. He will go to Japan th. month for several meets there. He has won the national championship in the 100 and 220 yard dashes for the past three years, which is an outstanding record. Then we have Ward of Michigan who has proven to be Michigan's one man track team. He will finish next year and like Metcalfe will be in line for the Olympics in 1936. LuValle of the University of California in Los Angeles, is a national figure who is being watched because of his quarter mile record and his excellent scholarship. He has another year in school. Young Jesse Owens of Ohio State will be much in evidence next as he will be a sophomore and will be out there in many of the track meets. He is expected to take Metcalfe's place in the 100 and 220 dashes. And he is very good at the broad jump. Two Johnsons There is Johnson of Illinois and Johnson of California, and a dozen others who will be in the limelight for the next two years and it looks like the Negro athlete will dominate the 100 and 220 yard dashes the 440 yard, the high and broad in the high and low hurdles. With this prominence and hhampionship material in the young Negro, he commands favorable attention and even hero worship. All of which strike a blow which is being felt over the country. Take the Penn relays, the Drake relays, the I.C.4A meet, the N.C.A. A, and N.A.U. meets where southern white boys hompete with Negro boys and lose to them, certain-good on the field and track, butly leaves a very favorable impression and naturally commands 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 Here is another blank cross-word puzzle layout.

Our boys are not only making good on the field and track, but they are proving their worth in the class room, which also commands favorable respect. Being a leader on the field and in the class room makes an indelible impression on one's schoolmates, and the whites rubbing elbows with our athletes cannot be told that there is nothing to the young Negro. Princeton Invites LuValle An outstanding event this year was the invitation from Princeton University, where Negrees are not admitted to the school, to young LuValle, of California, to run in the special invitational meet on June 16. This is a straw which shows which way the wind is blowing and it will be interesting to watch this drift for the next few years. There is no doubt but that interracial relations are being helped by the ability and accomplishments of our Negro athletes in the white schools. No if you are included along the lines of sports isn't the above facts enough to inspire you to go in for athletics, train hard, and make a name for yourself and race? Young LuValle used to be a Tribune carrier and a contributor to the Kiddies' Corner of this paper while he was attending Dunbar. His father was at one time editor of this paper.

CHILDREN ON DEFENSE HIGHWAY 216-Acre Tract Near Glendale to Care For Little Sufferers Why not give adequate care to all the tuberculous children? That's the question now being asked by the D.C. Tuberculosis Association, encouraged by the substantial contributions thus far made by citizens of Washington for the maintenance of the health camp at Fourteenth and Upshur Streets, Northwest, where 150 boys and girls, colored and white, suffering from tuberculosis infection are getting such care and living conditions as will best insure their recovery. Officers of this association now vision a larger camp provision for all such children on a portion of the 216-acre tract of land owned by the District government near Glendale on the Defense Highway where the new sanitarium for tuberculous children is already located and ready for operation. This larger objective is outlined in the statement made by Mrs. Ernest R. Grant, the executive secretary of the association with the approval of Dr. William Charles White, its president, as follows: "Our association deeply appreciates the response thus far given to its appeal on behalf of the hundreds of little children in our city whose lives are threatened by tuberculosis in its early stage but who can be cured with the right environment and proper care. What has been done assures our camp this year for a portion of the tuberculous children. That is just a good beginning. If all who are able to give some financial support to this project will now contribute what they can, I am sure that we can do our full duty by all these little sufferers in the future. To this purpose we now stand committed namely to create for our great capital city a lifesaving station comparable to the famous "Miracle House," which has been operated so successfully for the children of Maryland at Claiborne on the Chesapeake Bay. Contributions toward this larger and more permanent camp for tuberculous children of Washington will be listed with those previously received, which with the $14,500 given by Mrs. Eleanor Patterson, editor of the Washington Herald now amount to $14,963." Contributions may be sent to the association at 1022 Eleventh Street, Northwest. The pastor of the Church of the Holy Zebra said, "We have had a successful year. Twenty-seven new members, six infants and nine adults. have been baptized, seven marriage ceremonies have been performed and I officiated at forty funerals."

Many young men and women have been aided in their college careers and most of them have made enviable rec- ords in the various colleges through- ‘out the country. Agide from this fi- nancial help to our youth, the oratorical contests held throughout the country have instilled in these young people the spirit of honest rivalry and self-con- fidence. The Order of Elks is to be congratu- Jated for this forward-looking construc- tive movement carried on by them. It would be well if other of our fraternal orders emulated this commendable ex- ample. Much of the success of this depart- ‘ment is due to the untiring work, honest dealing, and self-saerifice of Judge Hueston, who, in season and out, thinks of and works for these young men and women of ouw Race ———_.—_-- 4 Self-help Projects “ The self-help projects that are claim- Ing the attention of the administration ‘at the present as a means of helping to solve the unemployed problem did not originate with Elwood Street, local re- lief administrator, as believed by many persons, but was the idea of Forrester B. Washington, director of Negro Work in the Federal Relief Administration. ‘The plan as originated by Mr. Wash- Ington was his idea to set up a model felf-help project here in the District among Negroes. At first it was suggested that the project should be started in some of the states, but Mr. Washington opposed this as he was of the opinion that he would be in position to give a District project his personal supervision. After outlining the plan to relief ad- “ministrators here, they took it under advisement and later suggested that the self-help projects should be extend- ed to whites as well as colored. This Mr. Washington agreed to with the stipulation that there would be no dis- crimination as to color in any of the self-help corporations and further that eolored persons be appointed on the central or governing boards of the local corporation, The first of these projects among col- ored will be a sewing class which will be set up in a public school building. Later it is planned that other indus- tries be promoted with the aid of the sgovernment. Already a project is un- der way in Georgetown which will have & membership of both races. : Educational Chaos - The educational system of the coun- ry is all chaos.No two educators agree. me advocate specialization while jothers are opposed to it.

It seems to me that its significance may be far-reaching. Bishop Monroe H, Dayis, of the A.M.E. Church, ewns a farm of some six hundred acres on the outskirts of Marion, S. C., where he was born, and grew up to early manhood. As his former teacher, Bishop Davis invited me to take a little visit with him to his broad acres where his forebears worked as slaves and where he worked as a boy. I accepted the in- vitation with alaerity and delight as the sit- uation was suggestive of my own South Caro- Tina background and experience, First, a word as to my host. Bishop Davis, like myself, grew up out of the soil. By his own energy and determination, he pushed his way through college and Theological School, consecrated his life to God, church and race, and by work and worth won his way to the highest ecclesiastical distinction, He is among the younger, if not actually the youngest, of the Bench of Bishops. of the A.M.E.-Church, is intelligent and upright as becomes a Bishop, full of energy and zeal for his church which he cherishes as the apple of his eye, He is modest and unassuming and yet has a firm, unyielding grip on the tangled issues of his denomination and the religious world in general. One misses in him the hauteur of many eeclesiastie poten- tates, which, in football parlance, might be called the forward pass. It is to the younger ‘men of the A.M.E. Church, of whom Bishop Davis is a noble example, to which this denom- ination must look for the redemption of Israel, for Israel stands sorely in need of redemption. WE ARRIVE AT THE BISHOP’S FARMS So much for the farmer—now back to the farm. From Washington to Marion js four hundred and fifty-two miles, The journey was accomplished in a high powered car with- in eleven hours. I was naturally in an agri- cultural frame of mind and noted the farm prospects and possibilities throughout the long ride. Needless to say that I indulged in ser- ious and leng far reaching reflection as to the agricultural future of the race within the reg- ion traversed. Candor compels me to say that the outlook did not appear roseate. 1 saw very few farms along the roadside on which I felt I could make a living if the land and equipment should be presented to me as a free gift. No wonder then that a wide survey of the country convinces President Roosevelt that something must be done, and done at once for the relief of the farmer. Much of the land is sub-marginal and is adapted only to pasturage and timber growing. It is a pathetic spectacle thei libes fruitlessiy upgp these red hillsides to see families, white and colored, wearing out and worn out acres, ‘THE BEST COTTON 18 GROWN BY THE BISHOP i T can candidly say that Bishop Davis's farn had the best cotton and as good corn and as promising tobacco as any observed betweer Washington and Marion. If any of my read ers ever retrace this journey and are agricul- turally minded I invite their observation an¢ study to confirm or refute my judgment. Bish op Davis's farm, or better to say farms, for his estate is not continuous, but like Caesar's Gaul, is divided into three parts. The farm is low lying, fertile, well watered and wooded More than two hundred acres are under tillage His farm houses are well built and well kep! and might pass for first-rate suburban cot- tages. His farms are well stocked — with horses, mules, cows, hogs, chickens and tur- keys. I actually saw one goat. He operate: nine plows and his retinue comprises fifty-four persons, men, women and children. Bisho} Davis does not resort to the tenant system, the woes of which are well known, but furnish: es his tenants with a house, with one acre o: ground for their own use. Fire wood is fret and provision practically so. ‘The factory ays- tem is closely followed, the workmen are hired at a fair scale-of wages and are furnished wor! the year round as far as agricultural exigen. cies will. permit. One is reminded of the ok Feulal system with a benevolent overlord and complaisant tenants. The situation is greatly simply by the fact that many of his client are his own relatives whom he left behind when he quit the farm for college. There is an A.M.E. church on his place, with nearly three hundred members, Although not “with in his Episcopal District, he is at least the lord or at least the landlord of one congregation, A CONTENTED SETTLEMENT _ There were no signs of want or depression. Satisfaction and loyalty were everywhere ap. parent, I was interested to see with what ease the Bishop grasped every detail of the farm situation, and with what grace, deftness and good sense he gave ordersto be carrie out until his next visit. There was mutual understanding and complaisance. I ean readily understand his popularity as a Bishop if he deals with his clergy in the same way. I queried sevexal fo tne tenants as to how they spent their leisure time. The older ones seem to take delight in work, endless unceas. ing work.

Mifecence Sessions, To the Editor: Being & constant reader of The Tribune and enjoying it as I do, I am eager that it should carry some mention of the meeting of the Na- tional Gonference of Laymen which was held THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JULY 19, 1° New Program For | President of E The N.A.A.C.P. eee go By DRUSILLA DUNJEE HOUSTON nual conference could not but be impressed that fateful years lie ahead that will be rick in fruit, There was an absence of old heads: absence in a way of MASTER leadership but in personnel the association is rich in possi- bilities. The most noteworthy features of these younger men just coming to maturity is their zeal, their loyalty to the present lead- ership and the absence of lust for office-holding These seem to be men who see the great work that the association has done and can do, The older men who once stood at the helm per- haps do not realize the greatness of their ac- complishment but these young men sense it. Twenty-five years ago there was needed a solid front and alignment that was necessary to the day and its condition. The white man was asleep to the rights and conditions of Ne- groes, ‘The National Association throuh The Crisis and allied leaders began hammering upon the conscience of the American white mau. Today {¢ is we who must wake up and realize that that wo-k was thoroughly done. The Aryan is awake and the better clement fully ¢on- scious of our wrongs.. The World War too put the Aryan in fear and today the bette: white man is waiting for construetive pro- grams from those who aroused him. Will we be as equal to this as were the old N.A.A.GP. pioneers? 4 The great difficulty that lies in the way of race advance is ignorance as to the vital nged of this association; the ignorance of the white main as fo the real nature and capabilily of the Negro and the fact that leadership and out ‘teachers largely do not know the history of ‘their race. This makes jt impossible for such leadership to. properly “forecast the future. Many of them are afraid to teach Negro his- tory, fearing for their jobs, If this is true how are we ever to get the truth of a great past to the Negro child? White literature in every way disputes it; and has established an inferiority complex in older Ne- groes.' There must be a department establish- ed in The Crisis devoted to Negro History, in such interesting and academic form that it can be used in Negro class rooms and in study groups established as Junior N.A.A.C.P. de- partments, where prizes can be offered for study. ; Already our branches are using young peo- ple in oratorical contests and we must develop exhibits of Negro skill in arts and programs to which whites shall’ be invited that will re- veal the dramatic, musical, poetical and other artistic genius of the race. We have stored in the closets and trunks of our homes wonder- ful neediework treasures that ought to be haul- ed out and sent to district Negro exhibitions and to county fairs, ‘The best of such regional work in art should ‘be sent to our central office and there preserv- ed for national exhibits. We have signally fall- @d at this World's Fair to place the Negro upon the map artistically, If you pass up and down the avenues of the Century of Progress Exposition you will find that the Japanese and Chinese have spared no expense and vains to Place there in the glare of world publicity ex- hibits showing that in some branches of art they surpass the white race. We must no longer ignore this vital method by which to gain in world respect. ‘The goal set is to make The Crisis and the association more democratic, More emphasis must be placed upon the service of true work- ers in the ranks, ‘The grags roots must real- ine the service of Major Spingarn and his per. sonal effort to incite leadership to real en- deavor, ‘They should know of the unique service of Miss Ovington, upon whom the white direc- tors so much depend; They must be made to know the heroism of Walter White who, puts his life constantly in the breech for the ad- vancement of the N.A.A.C.P.; the untiring ser- vice of William Pickens, his oratorical power to maul truth into dense prejudiced minds; and finally the story of regional leaders who are bringing things to pass. at Bordentown Training School, Bordentown, New Jersey on Sunday, July 15, Seyeral outstanding features made this Year's session a most interesting one. Among them was the principal address delivered at 11:80 a.m, by Dr. Leslie Pinkney -Hill, presi- dent of the sColored State Teachers’ Colles, Cheyney, Pennsylvania, who spoke on the pres. ent and future of the American youth (not the exact title of speech but the essence contained therein). Mr. Hill empathically told his hear- ers, about one-fifth of whom was young men and young women ranging from 18 to 25 years old, that if the young people of today wish to attain social and economic success in life and thereby maintain in years to come a true and unfailing democracy, they must adhere, at least in part, to the high basic ideas and aleals of morals which have been established by the “old heads” of America. The speaker also stressed that it must not be forgotten that there is a supreme God in whom our trust, hope and faith must be placed for support. The youth of the audience was urged to pay more attention to the spirtual angle of life, Another high point of the Sunday session Was the testimonial dinner served at 1 o'clock in honor of the veteran Y.M.C.A, secretary, Mr. Robert P. Hamlin, who entered into retire. ment on that day. Many prominent associa. tion officials both colored and white were pres- ent and tendered, brief but elegant and. sin- cere tributes to the much honored and respect- ed gentleman and his wife. This occasion marked the end of thirty years of successful Y.M.C.A. service. Mr. J. W. Bowers, of the Oakland Avenue Y.MGC.A,, Mr: Hardy, of the Newark Court Street Branch and Mr. Bullock, the Montclair Branch were members of a committee on ar- rangements which made presentations includ. ing a fishing outfit, a “made-to-order,, hat and a sheaf of personal testimonies neatly compil- ed to the out-going officers, I had the very great pleasure of meeting Major Campbell C. Johnson, executive secre. tary of the Twelfth Street Branch Y.M.C.A. in Washington, D.C. Another source of de. light was to meet and talk at length with Mr. Ellis B. Weatherless, a former Washing- tonian and now connected with the Brooklyn 3Y". Mr. Weatherless is a brother of Miss Ruth E. Weatherless, Principal of the Dunbar Vacation High School in D.C. At its final hour the various commitices of the Conference assembled for reports went on record as endorsing the effort of the N.A.A” CP to have resubmitted to the 1935 cccsion of ‘the United States Congress the Wagner. Costigan anti-lynching bill for enactment jato law. The retiring Mr. Hamlin advised ‘the committee on findings that there were some 16 or more states represented aye at this Conference which was regarded as the niost Successful of its kind yet. 4, I, Alexander Byrd, Gerdozo Business High. '31. President of: Bar Defends Conduct of Crawford Case BY Thurman L, Dodson ations like the N.A.A.C.P. President of ee aekiarton nar| Crawford's ae aartived In an Associated Negro Press release signed by one Marcus Moon, which appeared in The Tri- bune last week, the facts were so. badly distorted, garbled and eolored, that I felt as president lof the Washington Bar Associa- tion, I should in a fey printed remarks take issue, as a lawyer, not only with women who drew the indictment, but also with the puerile and ‘ill-conceived regur gitation of this vicious libe] and slander upon the reputation and professional cenduct of a group of courageous and honest lawyers. Let it be understood that this is intended as no encomium of the gentlemen who conducted the de- fense in the Crawford case—for indeed their conduct of the case and the result which they ob- tained, and the influence which their conducting of the case has spread upon the legal profession stand as mute but indisputable evidence of the success of their crusade. But lest the unwary might be swayed by the vicious attacks, criticisms and veiled in- nuendoes, this reply is written. Tn order that the proper per- spective might be secured, let's look at the record, and not con- cern ourselves only with deduc- tions and gratuitous conclusions, whieh have no basis in fact, but spring from the minds of those who constantly seek to under- estimate that which another has done. Believed Crayford Innocent It must be remembered that at the time of the discovery of the murder in Virginia, it was general- ly believed that Crawford was not guilty or that he had any com- plicity in the crime. So when Crawford was later apprerended in Massachusetts — after an in- vestigation, the proffer of an alibi by Crawford — the N. A. A. C. P. decided to aid Crawford. ° This decision on the part of the as- sociation undoubtedly met the wholehearted approval of the pub- lic. No one then desired to see Crawford sacrificed, a victim of southern prejudice’ and Negro phobia. The learned author of the news release, however, refers to the successful handling of the case in Massachusetts before Judge Lowell. This statement is ludi- crous. While all persons of color naturally applauded the boldness and straightforwardness of Judge Lowell, yet it is no secret that most legally trained persons were of the opinion that Judge Lowell was wrong. But be that as it may — the reversal of Judge Lowell by the Circuit Court of Appeals removes all doubts, es- pecially when considered in the light of the refusal of the Supreme Court to review this ruling, as to the success of the Massachu- setts angle. This, of course, is intended as no reflection on ‘the Massachusetts counsel, but the fact is, had the Massachusetts angle been successful as claimed there would have been no Virginia angle, at least on that indictment. The preliminaries were over — Crawford had been ordered re- moved to Virginia, The N. A. A- C. P. had become involved in’ the case. The actual work of pre- pavation for ‘trial was then in order. Funds had been solicited; the case had become front page news. The eyes of the public were focused upon this case, A most rigorous investigation was made of every aspect of. the case, in- cluding the alibi, It became ap- parent to counsel before they had travelled very far in their investi- gation, that Crawford's ‘perfect’ alibi was shattered. Crawford Offered no Defense ‘The discovery of this fatal weak- ness in Crawford’s defense, to- gether with the damaging watch which had been stolen from one of the dead women and sold by Crawford, and the note found in Mrs, Isley’s car undeniably in Crawford’s handwriting, together with the information which Craw- ford gave Houston relative to his clothes in Washington which were left by him soon after the murder, were the crucial points in the case. The N. A. A.C. P. had become committed to Crawford’s welfare. To have walked out then would have been the most reprehensible thing imaginable, would have been ‘tantamount to an admission of | guilt on behalf of the organization | ehich had ‘undertaken to succor Crawford, and an open invitation ‘for a mob to greet Crawford on (his return. As for counsel, for them to have walked out — without an explanation - they would have been inveighed against and casti- | gated, and rightly so — for they j would have ‘been | charged with cowardice and desertion of a |client in extremis as it were, A ‘true explanation would have vio- lated the most sacred relationship ations like the N.A.A.C.P. Crawford's Life Involved As greatly desired as it was t get from the Supreme Court of the United States, if necessary, 3 judicial determination of the Vir. ginia judiciary as it affects Ne- groes, yet it must not be forgotter that after all it was Crawford's ease, his life was at stake, and in the last analysis it was Crawford who was to say whether he should be sacrificed on the altar of legal struggle for guaranty of constitu- tional rights. Crawford elected not to be that sacrificial victim. Neither the association nor his counsel could make him. It is easy enough for most of us — in our cloistered positions — to say that the case should have been carried up, but put each one who so says in Crawford's shoes and it’s a ten to one shot that the Crawford case would have ended the same way. Dean Houston and his associates’ conduct in the Crawford case is in no sense a failure, all of the in- timations, insinuations and innuen- does in Mr, Moon’s article to the contrary notwithstanding. Crawford's case represents a change in view of the great N. A.- A. C. P. in its relation toward colored attorneys. More than the glorification of the participants, the colored lawyer was catapulted into first page prominence, ‘The gentlemen’s conduct of that case served as an ocular demonstration that the day is now here when a black man’s right can be just as zealously guarded by a black lawyer as a white, and that even in the south, I’ rather suspect that many of the critics of the work of those young crusaders who had the courage, tenacity and temerity to go into that hostile community and defend a man charged with the most heinous of- fense imaginable for a Negro — the murder of two white women — did not relish such an ocular de- monstration and destruction of an old myth. Darrow’s defense of Loeb an Leopold, scions of two wealthy families,’ and whose vic- tim was a white boy, and the result of the case won for the noted lawyer world acclaim. Let's Show Graditude In the name of fair play then, why should we not render unto our own at least gratitude? For here was a group of young mili- tant and courageous Negro law- yers who dared gy into a hotbed of prejudice, where community feeling was high and resentful, and defend a Negro charged with the murder of two white women, land then in the face of most damaging evidence, yo: through legal strategy and generalship, win what the legal professional world unhesitatingly calls a sweep- ing victory. It is high time for the rank and file of Negroes to express in no uncertain terms its condemna- tion of character and reputation assassins who without themselves contributing anything to the com- Federal se) News Notes HAYES (Conducted by Wr. 1.

There was a time when the tace was made to feel proud of the recognition given some chosen in- dividual, believing that such indi- viduals ‘represented the hope and ‘aspirations of the people, and fur- ther believing that such was all ‘that was needed to keep the race and its needs on an even keel. But that time hae Sepp passed. Some- how they believed, that is, the po- litical parties did, that the Negro was a very emotional being whose emotions had to be appeased in preference to his intelligence. And somehow they worked on the the- ory that all they needed to do was to give some Negre “leader” a high sounding job and that the race could then take care if itself. Even in this enlightened day we hear the old. school of politicans, and sometimes rational human be- ings, bewailing the loss of those or that other “elegant” job held by Negroes in the past a3 if on that particular job depended the whole future of the colored race. The truth is that none of these posi- tions were of any benefit to the ‘race, excepting, of course, the mo- mentary feeling of satisfaction that it gave some in seeing one of their own rubbing political elbows with the mighty.. But the fact is that they were no more than rub- ber-stamp jobs given out as boun- ties for the “meritorious” service of selling short the brethren into the camp of some political party or another. Danger in Job Giving And today we are beginning to hear the same old rumblings. We are beginning to hear of the won- derful jobs given Negroes in this or that department of our govern- ment. This, of course is permissi- ble, providing that we flo n°t again fall in the same old rut, and that ble, providing that we do not turn out to be the same as those in the past. There is always that dan- ger. ‘What political parties and their minions should extol, if they have any respect for the mentality of the voter, is not the job or the man on the job, but what the job itself means to the people wide mon weal, occupy the cynic’s seat, and the critic's role, and with a venomous pen and with aid of a well organized whispering cam- paign, attempt to utterly diseridit and destroy a group of young men who dared do what a generation or so ago would have ‘been termed professional suicide. The public will see through this, The crities, like Haman, will be hanged on the very scaffold — that of the wrath of public indignation which they themselves have built. Dooay is rue TOMORROW YOU Woraito, : "| ABOUT YESTERD ay” present moment, it should be what the job means to the Negro get- ting his bearings and.becoming ad- justed and integrated in the new social and economic order, But in dsference to what already has been done, it must be under- stoid that the jobs held by Negroes in the government today, with one or two possible and necessary ex- ceptions, are by no means the ster- eotyped “Negro jobs” of the past. They are no swivel-chair jobs, and by no stretch of the imagination can they be generally considered berths for political worthies. They are in fact jobs that call “or intelli- gent and constructive action each and every day of their existence, and great results are expected from their establishment. ‘The Negro’s Need for Help Considered All of which goes to prove that political parties and administra- tions are cogniant of the need for something to be done not only for the Negro but for all classes of people who in the past have borne the brunt of sacrificial partisan- ship. And as regards the colored people, the present Democratic ad- ministration has shown its willing- ness for something worth while to be done for the colored citizens. And because on more than one oc- casion men high in the councils of the g°vernment have spoken loudly about what should be done to help the race, there is no mistaking the fact that the administration is conscientiously zealous of the wel- fare and future happiness of the race. For this reason the Negro does not need to fear or speculate as to how the government stands. The government's heart is in the right place. But the Negro should be deeply concerned as to how the man the government has chosen to represent him is functioning through this great crisis. For on whatever these men do while in of- fice will largely depend the future status of the Negro on the soil of America. And because of this, the people should demand he utmost that is in these men. As has been said, the Democratic party and the administration is with the people. Not Leaders—but Helpers of the Race President Roosevelt and several members of his cabinet have spik- en jn broad terms on what the gov- ernment expects from those chosen to officially aid the country out of the existing emergency, Like their white counterparts, these colored men were brought to Wesah- ington not to lead the People but to help them. And as members of the race they should be able to present the adminsitration convine- ingly and courageously with every fact that would tend to remedy the lot of their people. If perchance these men should meet with borers-from-within, wh° hold their personal ‘interest over and above the interests of the peo- ple, they are supposed to serve, the» should bring them before the bar of public opinion for the prop- er adjudication of their trespass. For after the show is over the peo- ple do not want to hear them say that “I tried to do this for yeu but my hands were tied.” That would be an excuse never expected to hold water if human intelligence today js what it is supposed to be. For in the first place the govern- ment did not bring them here to block anything that would try to do. It would have been easier for the administration not to have brought them here at all, than to have them in the inside of things expecting nothing of them. Results Expeted— Not Excuses All this is said for the simple reason that we have reached a point in the New Deal program wherein we should be hearing less of the men in it and more of what they are doing to help their people. In due time the people will want to know how the Negro is faring under the various agencies estab- lished to help him and the rest of the people of the nation.

The club and their guests were whisked away by bus to Carr's View Beach. Dancing, cards, and swimming were the main features of the day. They arrived at the beach at about 11:30 o'clock and cocktails were served—not for two, but for all. Marie Tasby, as a swimmer is reported as doing fine. Three strokes have been mastered successfully. Effie James is one of the pioneers of the pools in Washington and beaches in Maryland. She has learned to do one stroke and sink. This little lady is just as happy on sand as in the water. You can't drown on the bank, Effie. Although Elizabeth Bizzell's playmate did not care to swim, she, Elizabeth found the water just the same.

You will learn to swim by and by. The human fish has won many medals, she has also won a cookie, as she is Marguerite Cook. Thelma Stewart and Beatrice Davis added a bit of lovely plumpness to the beach.

"Each community has its own resources and its own problems," he stated, "but the corporation will be fair and square in dealing with the people of every community. "The success of the corporation's projects in any community will depend largely upon the goodwill and thorough cooperation of the people in the community." To Open Sewing Room Members of the self-help groups will come from the 20,000 families on local relief rolls, but may include others who wish to join. No one on relief will be compelled to do so. One of the first steps taken by the corporation included plans for the establishment of a sewing room employing colored seamstresses in the main. The Federal Emergency Relief Administration will be asked to contribute $50,000 to this project. To Be Paid in Scrip The seamstresses first will fashion clothes for themselves and their families, and then they will make garments to be purchased by relief agencies, which will pay for them in cash. The workers will be paid in scrip, redeemable at the corporation's store. If the sewing room is successful, additional funds will be asked of the FERA to establish other cooperative business enterprises including self-help farm projects in nearby Maryland and Virginia. Dr. Long on Board Dr. Howard H. Long, assistant school superintendent, has been appointed to the board of directors of the corporation. Owen Woodruff, assistant secretary of the District Bureau of Self-help, will outline a self-help program for youth at a meeting of social workers, and young men and young women, at the Phyllis Wheatley Y.W.C.A., Rhode Island Avenue and Ninth Street, Northwest, on July 20, at 8 p.m. REMOVING FINGER STAINS Unsightly stains on the fingers can be removed by tomato juice as well as with lemon.

Young Davis was formally inducted into the editorship and paid his respects to George Schuyler, Dr. DuBois, and Kelly Miller, by the use of such terms as "literary prostitutes," and "Uncle Toms." He also denounced the Negro press, N.A.A.C.P., and Urban League. He charged that the Costigan-Wagner anti-lynching bill "merely legalized lynching" and that "the Negro press supported the bill hoping to grab political graft-money."

It was given as a part of the Radio Education convention of Russia. The program followed a complex path to the Russian listener. From the studios where it originated in Radio City and the Blue network of the National Broadcasting Company which covers the United States, it went by land wire to the short wave transmitter at River Head, Long Island, on the Jersey coast, then across the ocean by short wave to the receiver at Rugby, England. From that point it traveled again by land wire to Russia.

Having finished. Dunbar — High School, Miss Elliott completed re- quirements: for her bachelr's de- gree in Romance Languages from the College of Liberal Arts of Howard University: in 1933, In striking contrast to this study is the practical training in cafeteria, tea room and home management received at the O Screet Vocationa School.

Thus equipped Miss Elliott ac- quired a background of experience ‘of clerical and social service work. Finding the latter more pleasant she is still engaged in that field. During’ these formative stages Miss Elliott has. shared her new impressions and experiences with ‘the “folks back home” through ar- ticles written for: the Weekly News of British West.

Luther Boyd, 51-year old Baptist preacher, was shot down in cold blood ‘here early last Sunday morning in an_alley adjacent to his home, i149 S. Clarion Street. It was believed that the migister had been slain by a young Italian because the preacher resented advances on the part of the white: youth toward a colored girl near his home, It is related by police that the preacher was on his way home when he saw the Italian talking toa girl in passionate undertores, and as the Rey.

Soap Box Oratory If a visitor were to wend his way to Harlem this summer season he would be considerably impressed by the considerable amount of street or “soap-box” oratory that seems to be a part of Harlem’s much discussed night-life, Each evening at about 9 o'clock some one on. two of Harlem's more or less distinguished ‘‘soap-box” orators mounts a ladder, generously deco- vated with American flags, and be- labors a vast street audience with topics and subjects of the day, Re- ligion, politics, Garveyism, segre- gation, and the ever popular race question are a few of the momen- toux=and burning issues that are threshed out from evening to eve- ning. One of the main reasons that this form of oratory has se- cured such a firm grasp on Har- lemites may be occasioned by the fact that a practical form of de- mocracy is characteristic of these street meetings. Any member of the audience is privileged to dis- agree or refute any statement or statements made by. the main speaker—and that's when the fun ysually begins!

WOMAN PUSHED FROM TAXICAB DURING FIGHT WOMAN PUSHED FROM TAXICAB DURING FIGHT Man Who Shoved Compan ion From Car Fined in Police Court An altercation in a slow-moving taxicab terminated Friday night when Thelma Palmer, 23, of 1339 Third Street, Northwest was pushed from the machine by two men. As the woman fell to the ground the rear wheel of the car ran over her leg. She was treated at Freedmen's Hospital for bruises to the right leg. According to the police, the woman and two men, Esley Simon, 28, 71 L Street, Northwest and Charles L. Franberger, 27, 1246 New Jersey Avenue, Northwest, were fighting in a cab driven by Milford Evans, 24, 1620 Fifth Street, Northwest, at Third and D Streets. When the fight reached its peak the men pushed the woman from the car. The men were arrested at the Second Precinct on a charge of assault. Hailed into police court Saturday they were convicted and fined $15. Commissioners Award Logan School Contract The District Commissioners advised the board of education last week that an order has been issued awarding the contract for an addition to the Logan School has been given to John W. Hunt Company, of Washington. The cost of the addition will be $96,225 and is to be completed within 240 calendar days. The commissioners also stated that the temporary shops at the old Phelps Vocational School, 1900 block of Vermont Avenue, will be moved and the grounds placed in condition for play purposes.

He operates a "penny" restaurant at 1727 Seventh Street, Northwest, where many items are sold at one penny each. The restaurant does a tremendous business, having served in one month as many as 25,000 persons. Bread and butter costs a penny, a cup of coffee or a piece of pie may be had for one cent. Some items cost more but a satisfying, wholesome and varied meal may be purchased for from ten to fifteen cents. Originally the restaurant which is known as "Happy News Restaurant" was operated by Bernard McFadden of New York, famous exponent of physical culture and publisher of Liberty and other publications. Mr. McFadden who is a philanthropist, established this restaurant in the colored section and another for whites at a different location something over a year ago. The restaurants were to be nonprofit sharing but were expected to provide for their own expenses. The white restaurant succeeded in achieving this objective but the colored restaurant ran behind. Rev. Michaux and his flock took it over on a six months' trial period, Mr. McFadden loaning the equipment valued at $3,000 intact. Members of the Church of God cook and serve the food. Some idea of the scope of the venture may be gained by the fact that they buy 100 pounds of baking powder a month and buy it from a Negro salesman. The six months' probationary period ended last month. The restaurant still runs a deficit which is borne by the congregation. Mr. McFadden was so pleased with the results, however, that he made an outright gift of the $3,000 equipment to Elder Michaux and the Church of God.

FORD The District Commissioners were told last week that this ancient fire truck belongs to No. 4 Engine Company's equipment, knocks like a piledriver when it runs. It should purr like a contented kitten. Dr. George L. Johnson, chairman of the public service committee of the association, said that the poor old engine is 17 years old and is the laughing stock of the community. Firemen of No. 4 are embarrassed every time they attempt to pull a hill with the truck. They have to turn around and back up the hill in reverse. When the truck finally puffs up to a fire all of the other engines are on the job and the delapidated No. 4 truck is made the butt of funsters. This does not help the rule of the firemen, said Dr. Johnson. ALPHA PHI ALPHA SCHOLARSHIPS ARE ANNOUNCED James B.

Knights of King David in Recent Receivership GREENSBORO, N. C. (ANP) Announcement was made last week that the Royal Knights of King David had been placed in receivership. It was the last of the Negro endowment orders to take the count from the depression. The Knights of Pythias the Odd Fellows, the Masons and other smaller orders have already succumbed to the stringency of the times. Some criticism is made of the leadership of these groups because there have been no failures in similar groups among the whites. This criticism is directed in part at the college men who have been the leaders. It is pointed out that the ruins of the Elks in this city and nearby towns and of the Masons are being dig up by men who have never been to college.

STRIKE RUMOR AT SCHOOL DENIED BY WASHINGTON Social Work Head Says One Student Was Dissatisfied and Held Meetings Forrester B. Washington, director of the Atlanta School of Social Work and director of Negro Work in the Federal Emergency Relief Administration, denied this week that there was dissatisfaction at the Atlanta School among students as stated last week in an Associated Negro Press release. Mr. Washington returned from Atlanta last Friday and denied rumors of a strike at the school. The ANP release stated that pressure was brought to bear forcing all students to attend the school at Atlanta and in some cases plans were made and persons selected to attend the New York School of Social Work and the University of Chicago, but this plan was suddenly changed without notice. Mr. Washington, director of the school, has expressed himself as being immensely impressed with the intelligence, earnestness and cultural background of the group. He states that not only have the majority their bachelor of arts degrees but there are some who can boast of master of arts degrees. "Technical social work training superimposed upon such a background," stated Mr. Washington, "will enable the students to make very rapid progress in the ERA field." Mr. Washington admitted that one student had been holding meetings and was dissatisfied, but after an explanation the student was convinced that he was in error. A statement covering the situation was given as follows by Mr. Washington: "With registration for the first session closed and class work two-thirds over, the 62 students from 8 southern states now registered in the training school for Negro ERA case workers at the Atlanta School of Social Work seem to be quite enthusiastic over the opportunity afforded them. The students are studying on fellowships awarded them by the Relief Administrators of he various states from which they come. "These fellowships, the first of their kind, are solely a private contract between the students who are employed ERA workers on leave of absence, and their state relief administrators. The Atlanta School of Social Work was asked by the latter to submit to them a statement of the actual expenses which the students would incur through the school. This it did. The final amount allowed each student over and above this, was determined by the various state administrators. There was no standard sum by which all states were governed. Some states allowed actual expenses of tuition, travel and board and lodging. Some added $10 to $20 to the above budget, and some simply continued the salary of the workers during the period of study. But neither the Atlanta School of Social Work nor Mr. Washington in his capacity of Director of Negro Work with the FERA had control or previous knowledge of the various arrangements made by the (Continued on page 10) Detectives Halt Attempt Burglary in Chain Store Milton B. Cureton, 17, convicted last year for robbing chain stores, was surprised in the act of doing another job last week when Detectives L. M. Wilson and Charles E. Mansfield slipped in on him and a companion after a radio alarm flashed a burglary in a store at 313 K Street, Northwest. Cureton and his pal, Purcell Green 18, of the 200 block of Q Street, Northwest, did not have time to take anything before the officers nabbed them. They were booked on investigation. Records show that Cureton was placed on probation in District Supreme Court in October, 1933, after conviction on a charge of robbery. Felony Sentence Follows Guilty Plea of Jail Breaker James H. Harley long known as one of the most glusive individuals listed in the record books of the local police, was the first to feel the weight of having committed a felony by escaping from jail. Harley, who escaped twice from District institutions pleaded guilty before Justice Daniel W. O'Donoghue in the District Supreme Court, Monday. He was sentenced to serve from one to two years in addition to the remainder of the sentence he sought to evade. Following Harley's second escape from Washington police, he was indicted under the new law which makes it a felony to break from jail. He will be compelled to serve the balance of his old sentence, which was from two to five years, in addition to the later penalty. Thief Takes Electric Fans From Church If Sunday happens to be a hot day worshipers who visit the Metropolitan Baptist Church 1200 block of R Street, Northwest, will suffer for the need of cool air. This will be all because some mean thief entered the church Friday and stole three electric fans valued at $45. He is said to have used a duplicate key in gaining entrance to the church.

Judge Loans Speeder Dollar to Pay Fine Possession of an honest face, Friday, proved to be the thing which kept James Allen out of jail. Allen was arrested for speeding by Policeman William Lutes in Potomac Park. He was fined $5 by Judge Gus A. Schultz in police court the next day. Reaching in his pocket to get the money, Allen found that he had only four one dollar bills. “Your honor,” he asked, “will you continue this case until I can get another dollar?” “You look like an honest fellow,” the judge commented, “but I'm afraid we must keep the records straight and I cannot grant your request.” Downhearted, Allen started toward the cell block. “Wait a minute,” Judge Schultz said, “here’s a dollar. I'll loan it to you. Pay your fine and give it back tomorrow.” Allen promised to repay.
