(Continued on page 2) Two Twilight Laws 6-Months Susp Police Start Drive to Break Fourteenth Street A and Money Fa Two twilight ladies were given very stiff sentences which were suspended when they appeared be- fore Judge Robert Mattingly in police court Friday morning. Both were arrested by Detective G. C. Carver and charged with so- liciting along Fourteenth Street, near R and S Streets in the early morning hours. Despite the fact that Miss Doris Blair, 1447 R Street, Northwest, produced a bank book showing a balance of over $200 in savings, she was found guilty of the begging charge. To further prove that she was not "that kind of a girl," John W. Dykes, proprietor of the Chalcedony Inn, swanky night club on the Washington-Ballimore Boulevard, testified that Miss Blair worked him for which he paid her $1 a week. However, the court produced a record to show that the girl has arrested five times before for the same charge. Officer Carver said that he had warned her to stay off the streets several times and on the night she was arrested she was being followed by a drunken white French Woman, 1432 T --- INNOCENT VICTIM SUES FOR $15,000 Man Injured In Lunchroom Fight Asks Court for Damages For being the innocent victim of a fight in a lunchroom on Seventh Street, Northwest, Walter Banner, 911 N Street, sued the Owl Sandwich Shop and Kenneth Davis, 1237 Seventh Street, for $15,000 last week.

Jobs ail to Save Girls Street, who faced the same charge was meted out the same punish- ment, $500 fine or six months in jail The court took for granted that Miss Wynn was white and expressed surprise when officers stated that she lived with a colored man. "I am not married your honor and when I do I will marry a colored man because I am colored myself," she stated. Like Miss Blair she was picked up by police near Fourteenth Street in the early morning hours. J. J Harris, a tailor, testified that the girl worked for him for which he paid her $18 per week. "She is an excellent seamstress," Harris said. "Six months or $500," said the judge.

Washington Tribune TRIGGER MAN IS FREED IN SHOOTING TRIGGER MAN IS FREED IN SHOOTING Racketeer's Injured Guard Said to Have Shot in Defense of Life A verdict of justifiable homicide, returned by a coroner's jury following an inquest in to the death, Saturday night, of Harry Sladko, alias Henry Irving, (white), resulted in the exoneration of William Redford, 55.292 Sherman Avenue, Northwest, charged with the shooting which claimed the life of Sladko. The inquest was held at the District Morgue, Tuesday, Dr. A. Magruder McDonald, District coroner, presiding. The five white men and one colored comprising the coroner's jury concluded that Redford, a confessed body-guard for Walter J. Harper, white numbers "runner" had shot down Sladko "in defense of his own life." Attempted "Stick-up" Testimony presented at the inquiry revealed that Harper, living in the 3500 block of Warder Street, was enroute to the home of Frank Norris, 3800 New Hampshire Avenue, an alleged numbers banker, with the day's receipts of more than $300. Accompanied by Redford and another body-guard, Lawrence W. Goodwillion 26, 1510 acceded by one of several white men and told to "hand it over."

Redford replied with fire from his own revolver. Redford was shot in the left cheek, Sladko in the abdomen. Friends Leave Victim Accomplices of the wounded white man placed him in the machine used in the hold-up and rushed him to Homeopathic Hospital where he was left on the sidewalk outside. Redford was treated at Freedmen's Hospital where he was carried by Gomillion. The bandit group escaped with the bag of money. According to Harper it is his nightly duty to convey the money received in the day's business from 1709 U Street, Northwest, from where they had been on their way Saturday night to their "poss" at the New Hampshire address. Sladko is said, by police, to have been a New Jersey gunman, recently implicated in a mail robbery. No H. U.

LOVE CHILD IS BASIS FOR DIVORCE Andrew W. Jenkins Seeks Absolute Divorce from Alleged Unfaithful Mate A birth certificate filed with the District of Columbia Health Department should prove the undoing of Mrs. Mildred Jenkins and Henry Pendavis, co-defendants, should an attempt be made to contest the divorce action instituted by Andrew W. Jenkins, 306 L Street, Southeast. The certificate records the birth of a child to Mrs. Jenkins, from whom Jenkins seeks divorce, and Mr. Pendavis, who is named as co-respondent. The bill, filed Thursday by Attorney Augustus W. Gray, states that Mrs. Jenkins left her husband to go live with Pendavis after a quarrel between them on April 11, 1933, and that since that time she had never returned to their home. It further avers that she and Pendavis lived together at 712% Thirteenth Street, Northeast, before moving to their present address 525 Fifteenth Street, Northeast. That the pair had been guilty of adultery, out of which narcotage to a child girl had developed, was borne out by Health Department records and vital statistics carried in the Tribune of March 1, 1934. The child was born to Mrs. Jenkins at Gallinger Hospital on February 16, 1934. At the time of birth, it is alleged, Mrs. Jenkins gave the parentage as "Henry and Mildred Pendavis." In his petition Mr. Jenkins asserts that he and Mrs. Jenkins were married on October 17, 1932, and that they had lived together as man and wife from that time to April 11, the time of the quarrel. He declares that when he returned home from work that evening he found his spouse had masked her things and left the house.

Tuskegeeans Charge Hughes Lied on Moton CHICAGO, (ANP) — Delegates to the national convention of the Tuskekee General Alumni Association in session here this week, asserted informally that Langston Hughes had written a plain falsehood concerning Dr. Robert R. Moton, president of Tuskegee Institute, in an article in the August Crisis. The point raised was Hughes' charge that Dr. Moton had favored a wage differential in the south, allowing lower wages for Negroes doing the same work than for whites. The Tuskegeeans were puzzled to know where Mr. Hughes may have been when Dr. Moton's objection to any such differential were widely published last year in the white and colored newspapers.

NACHMAN "You'll Always Do Better Here" Corner 8th and E Sts. N.W. Washington's Popular Furniture Store BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL THE WASH Augus BU HUB FURNITURE CO. NATIONAL FURNITURE By WILLIAM G. BLACK Advertising Manager of The Washington Tribune The modern trend of furniture is to the ultra-modern—exposed steel structure with sharp lines dominating over curves, especially in chairs. Even the old rocker is being replaced by the new flexible steel chairs which have no legs, but only curved steel frames extending from the front and curving backward until the rear is parallel with the back of the chair (there being nothing under the seat of the chair except the two front flexible steel supports) yet you get the same effect of a rocking chair in this simplified arrangement. These chairs are now popular for porch and beach use. The foregoing is a simple argument against the idea that modern furniture is uncomfortable. On the contrary, it is very comfortable without being too elaborate. It is interesting to note that the United States is 12 per cent to 18 per cent saturated with electrical refrigerators, whereas Washington is more than 30 per cent saturated. The above fact assures one that Washington is one of the nation's largest "quality" markets. Washingtonians are essentially quality conscious, whereas, say Baltimore and New Orleans are "price" towns.

Kid Chocolate, the Cuban Bonchampion of the world who, fight crine, Friday night, dragged his 1 ebony humanity into the ring at O Andre Sarilla around for six rounds, Panamaic after 1 minute and 57 round. Blow-by-blow description of the Chocolate-Sarilla fight will be found on page 14. Nearly 5,000 idolizing fight fans cheered, cheered and cheered as the "Keei" delivered the knockout punch a short right jab to the jaw, that sent the Panama southpaw to the canvas for the count. For six rounds Chocolate, his flashy and remarkable speed, his masterful ring generalship still bearing a semblance of the former champion—but his once terrific punch somewhat lacking in its power, battered the awkward Panama puncher's face into an ebon mass of distorted matter. With Sarilla thus ready for the "kill" Chocolate had little trouble laying him low in the fatal seventh. As early as the first round, Chocolate had the Panamic groggy. After all, the formal preliminaries were over, the two fighters came out slowly each apparently content to feel out the other's style. Shortly, however, the Cuban weaved in with a series of swinging blows and uppercuts that had Andre quite bewildered and once sent him to his knees. Sarilla Lands Two Sarilla was able to land two blows which carried little effect in the second, but Chocolate easily won the round, making the Panamaic look mediocre by eluding his southpaw punches, and then, forcing him into the ropes pounding him with continuous body blows. Chocolate landed a left hook to the body that sent Andre to the floor in the third but the Panama opponent was up like a Japanese jumping jack. The Cuban still punched the Panamaic in the fouth but Carilla, "a tough man," bounced around in futile flurry, several times attempting to land one good blow that he hoped might reel the former champion, but soon found that Chocolate's bevy of lefts and rights had so sapped the power from his punch that it was left as punchless as a Sunday school picnic punch. With Sarilla thus making a determined though awkward attack, Chocolate blocked ducked and eluded his punches with ease. Sarilla's Eve Closed Chocolate took several blows to the head in the fifth but always came up swinging and drove the Panama puncher to the ropes pummelling him with a furry of fists. In the sixth, the crowd began yelling for the "kill" and Chocolate, now fighting more cautiously and dodging Sarilla's punches with catlike sensitiveness, launched a two-first attack that drove the Panama portside into the ropes and closed his right eye. Sarilla was fighting back gamey, but was destined to topple under the ferociousness of the Cuban Bon Bon's attack. Groggy and badly beaten, Sarilla weathered the storm of the round only by the sounding of the bell. His right eye completely closed, Andre came out in the seventh still unwilling to give up. Chocolate bore in battering him into the ropes with first a right, and then a left, and finally a short right jab to the jaw, a blow which perhaps, would not have seriously bothered a fresh fighter, but Sarilla, worn and torn from the previous six rounds fell to the canvas in a heap, adding another chapter to the colorful ring career of the Cuban flash. Chocolate weighed 132; Sarilla, 130. Kid Sullivan, white, referred the bout. The Preliminaries Good Young Canada Lee, 118, stablemate of Chocolate's floored Bobby Perry of Atlantic City, 124, three times to gain an eight-round decision in a gory semi-final. Lee had Perry's face covered with blood and his left eye cut by the end of the fisticuffing. Jimmy Freeman, 149, Richmond, Va., won a second-round technical k. o. from Randy Beasley, 143, Philadelphia, and Young Kid Buffalo, was the victor in a fourth-round technical knockout from Speedy Dixon, local favorite, in two furious preliminaries that were scheduled to go six rounds. Joe Stewart, 133, Washington, gained a split decision from Elijah Lewis, Richmond, in a four-round opener. The boxing card, sponsored by the Lincoln Athletic Club, of which John W. Carter is secretary; Dr. William A. Goodie, president; and W. Ernest Jarvis, vice-president, dew the second largest gate in Washington since fighting was legalized here last spring. An official count of 4,326 fans paid more than $5,064.25 to see the show. Chocolate's share of the proceeds was reported to be more than $900. 4,088 Paid $7,600 to See Chocolate-Sarilla Bout A total of 4,088 paid admission to see the Chocolate-Sarilla fight Friday at Griffith Stadium.

The tournament, under the auspices of the Twelfth Street Y.M.C.A. and the Walker Tennis Club, is attracting some of the outstanding players of the east and south. Ted Thompson, outstanding luminary, is a local favorite to win the title. Although unable to attend the nationals, Ted is in tip top shape and is flashing the form displayed by him a number of years back.

WEEK ENDING AUGUST 25. 1934 HILLSDALES LOSE 9-6 DECISION TO ORIENTALS Wheeler and Lacy Pounded in Jungaleer Win; Norris Stars Playing steadily behind a 15-hit offensive and the stellar mound work of Robinson, the Oriental Tigers nine scored a surprise victory over the Hillsdale A.C. baseball team, 9-6, at the Monument Lot, Sunday afternoon. A large crowd was on hand to witness the affair, despite the fact that it was not to have been played there. Wet grounds necessitated the transfer of the game from the Oriental diamond at Second and T Streets, Southwest. The Southwest aggregation went into an early lead, touching the offerings of Joe Wheeler for 5 hits and 4 runs in the first innings. The Hillsdale spitball artist weathered the storm until the fifth when he was relieved by Sam Lacy. Five Hillsdale errors played an important part in the Orinetal scoring. Of these miscues, Willie Hope, first baseman, was the offender on two occasions. Weak hitting in the early stages of the game proved detrimental to the 'Dale cause. Tramp Norris, Jungaleer catcher, was the principal figure in the defeat of the Prides of LeDroit. Beside throwing four ambitious Hillsdales out attempting to make second, the Oriental receiver counted 3 hits, one a double and another a triple, in 5 trips to the platter. # ORIENTALS AB H B F E Faunty.f 5 3 2 1 Hicke.c. 3 1 0 1 0 Drake.3b. 3 1 0 0 Dudley.2b. 4 1 1 0 Norris.c. 5 3 2 0 Brookr.f. 5 1 2 0 H.Jack'n.1b.3 0 1 0 Williams.f. 5 1 0 0 Williams.c. 3 2 2 0 Smith. 5 1 0 0 A.Jack'n.1f. 1 1 0 Robinson.p.5 2 0 0 # HILLSDALES AB H B F E Faunty.f 5 3 2 1 Hicke.c. 3 1 0 1 0 Drake.3b. 3 1 0 0 Dudley.2b. 4 1 1 0 Norris.c. 5 3 2 0 Brookr.f. 5 1 2 0 H.Jack'n.1b.3 0 1 0 Williams.f. 5 1 0 0 Williams.c. 3 2 2 0 Smith. 5 1 0 0 A.Jack'n.1f. 1 1 0 Robinson.p.5 2 0 0 # Totals .. 36 15 9 1 Totals .. 32 9 6 5 Orientals .. 4 0 1 2 0 2 0 9 Hilldales .. 0 0 0 0 0 1 2 6 2 Two-base hits ..

The Southwest lads, coached by Walter (Squat) Brooks, former Dunbar High School track star, were outstanding in the field events, its representatives winning four of the jumps. Howard Playground was second with 34 points while Banneker Recreation Center beat out Lincoln for third honors by one point. Banneker scored 26, and Lincoln, 25. HOWARD GIRLS CROWNED CHAMPS Victorious in the annual swimming meet held at their pool, female swimmers of Howard Playground, Wednesday, established themselves as water champions on the District.

Fifteen of the twenty playgrounds figured in the point scoring. Preceding the games, the athletes, who numbered nearly 800, marched around the field in a colorful parade fashioned after the celebrated Olympic games. A feature of the day's program was the 100-meter dash in the unlimited unrestricted class which brought together three of the city's outstanding sprint stars. Berry Williams, Howard cinderpather, nosed out his teammate, Leroy Scurry, C.I.A.A. century champion, to win the event in 10 1-5 seconds. Off to a slow start, Williams gained ground steadily passing the tracksters at the 90-meter mark. Norman Fickling, Armstrong High School ace dashman, was a close third. Timmy Smith, erstwhile half-mile champion of the District playgrounds, repeated his victory of last year by winning the event with 25 yards to spare. In the co-featured one-mile run, Ike Woodard, Bluefield College athlete, romped home ahead of the field of four with a 30-yard advantage. Other outstanding performances included Henry Robinson's winning of the century dash in the unlimited restricted class in 10 2-5 seconds, Benjamin Frazier's leap of 20 feet, 9 1-4 inches in the unlimited broad jump, and little Reds Colston's victory in the 85-pound class 60-meter dash.

The natators scored 41 points to win the meet while Banneker was close on their heels with 34 points and Francis right behind with 31. Walker Stadium tallied 11 while Stevens Playground got 6 for fourth and fifth, respectively. Miss Maude Parker, supervisor of Girls on District Playgrounds, was prevented from presenting the awards for the winners because of a storm which broke out at the end of the program. A feature of the meet was the two balloon races in which the contestant was required to swim 25 yards and then blow up a balloon until it burst. Rose Seldon captured one of the featured races but was disqualified because of participation in another class. Georgetown Stopped by LeDroit Tigers The LeDroit Tigers, continuing their spectacular play under the leadership of Sherman Baylor, took the measure of the champion Georgetown Athletics in both ends of a double-header at Twenty-sixth Street and Bennings Road, Northeast, last Sunday afternoon.

Cub nine, last Sunday afternoon by scores of 10-8 and 7-4. A home run by Al Ball, star first-baseman of the Anacostians, with the score 8-6 against his team in the eighth, put the eventual winners in the lead which they never relinquished through the remainder of the opening clash. Mason and Duckett were on the bases at the time. Bill Reed started for the Southeast aggregation, but was forced to retire in favor of Shufflin' Ossie Stewart before the contest was completed. Stewart gave up 2 hits and struck out 5 during the 4 innings he toiled. Garland, on the mound for the Cubs, hurled creditable ball and would have gained a better fate with steadier support on the part of his mates. Garland fanned 7 Anacostias.

The Aztecs have already been met by the West-enders, an even break being gotten in the double-header earlier in the season. The Anacostia outfit will be striving to unseat the Dorsey clan from their claim to the city championship. Although the DroitTigers stopped the Georgetowners twice last Sunday, it is generally conceded that the west-enders have the team to beat for the 1934 title.

Last week marked the half way mark for the completion of playground athletic programs. Swimming meets with Howard as the winner in both classes of competition led the other playgrounds for the week. The Howard swimming team was a well balanced unit, a very necessary feature to win any playground meet. Their 70-pound class swimmers turned the tide against the Walker Stadium team as well as the Francis and Banneker teams. The finals of the Horse shoe tourney will be held this Friday at the Walker Stadium with Logan. Howard and Shaw fighting it out for top honors Lincoln Playground will have its dedication sometime in September according to Miss Helen Capers, director of the ground. An elaborate program is planned in conjunction with the National Recreation Convention to be held here in the District early this fall. Barry Farms Barry Farms girl's track team hopes to repeat its wins of a couple of years ago when it took the track championship from all other grounds. Much of the work of winning will be upon the shoulders of the following girls, Anita Green, Dorothy Slaughter, Abbylonia Yates, Margurite Hawkins, Eunice Proctor, Irene Wright, May Ridley and Edna Minor. Mrs. Florence Matthews and Miss Vesta McKenny are working very diligently to help the girls get into condition for the meet which will be held this afternoon in the Walker Stadium. Monroe Playground The Monroe Swimmers were in there fighting last Friday at the swimming meet but failed to score through lack of experience. That will mean for next year a stronger team at that playground. Elijah Williams and Miss Olive Rose are due much credit for having a team entered regardless of points scored. The loss of J. McKelvin of Monroe will be felt very keenly due to an unexpected call to come to the south for two months. Logan Playground The lone representative of Logan Playground, T. Queen, scored three points in taking second place behind C. Watson, of Stevens in the 25-yard breast stroke 100-pound class. Logan will play in the horse shoes finals this Friday afternoon when Howard with Shaw will battle for the city hours in horse shoes at Walker Stadium. Water Sports and Places Much interest has been focused on the coming Allied Democratic Clubs, Inc., swimming meet and beauty contest to be held Monday, September 3 at the Suburban Gardens Pool. Events will include races for boys, girls, men and women with awards to winners in first, second and third places. A beauty contest has been carded for the day's program with first and second prizes to the winners. The Allied Democratic Clubs have made this their first big athletic event of the year and hope to interest many before the season is out by having athletic events of all kinds and at all times. The meet will be under the direction of Clarence Pendleton, director of Walker Stadium. Many leading swimmers of the District of Columbia will participate in this meet. Among the stars will be the present challenger for back stroke honors, Wayman Carroll. Adolphus Essex, captain of the Walker Stadium team will enter his men in the events in the hopes of taking the meet. Charles Pinderhughes, present holder of the interscolastic breast stroke record, will be a strong contender for honors in that event. Daniel Ellis, promising young swimmer, will be entered in the juvenile event. Water Polo The Walker Stadium water polo team will engage the fast Banneker Center team Friday at 6 p.m., in the Banneker Center Pool. The Walker Stadium team is making its debut and hopes to keep a good record for the winter season when outside teams will be engaged for competition here and away. A.A.U Meets There will be much ado until the late Saturday afternoon September 1 when both king and queen champions of the District of Columbia Champions will have been crowned. Many swimmers from away have signified their intention of entering the meet. With the local crop pretty well into condition many records should find themselves pretty deep in dust when Sunday rolls around. Plan for Meet Two playground teams will enter the big competition for the first time in many years. The Walker Stadium team which placed second has from the start signified its intention to enter the meet this fall. The Howard Playground champions hope to enter a strong team in the meet with the intention of taking a few of the coveted prizes offered this year. Clarence Browne Appointed Clarence Browne Appointed Clarence Browne has recently been appointed to the recreational staff of the Southwest Community House and director of recreational activities.

BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL LEMUS DEFENDS ARTICLE, HITS BACK AT DAVIS Wants to Know Where Local Man Gets Money to Finance Trips Rienzi B. Lemus who is said to be the author of an article which appeared several weeks ago in several newspapers alleging that John P. Davis, executive of the Joint Committee on National Recovery, is using his office to embarass the present administration, publishes another attack on the Washington man this week. In an article in The Tribune last week, Davis branded the Lemus statement as untrue and blamed Lawrence Oxley, chief of the Negro Division, Department of Labor, as the source from which Lemus got the information for the article. Lemus in an Associated Press release this week states: "John P. Davis of Washington, Harvard Law School, is secretary of what apparently is the 'National Committee on Joint Recovery' (recovery of the parent units of the National Committee). In a signed statement to the weekly press 'Fessor Davis denounces Lawrence Oxley, Chief Negro Division U. S. Department of Labor, in the place, using an article published by me in the Washington Tribune as the foil. "Mr. Davis, however, was convalescent from effects of a major operation at the time of his release, and that perhaps accounts for a couple of misstatements in "On the Reasoning" and for accusing Davis of being in the pay of the Republican National Committee. I didn't. Recognize to the weekly's file will disclose that my story was my inferences of the utterances. Dr. Peek denies my inferences. I therefore stand corrected.

He came over to the table, greeted them, finally addressed me saying, 'this is Mr. Lemus.' extending his hand, which grasped. On my observation that he knew me he said, 'We have met.' I was asked Mr. Oxley was present and heard the conversation. In printing the story that Mr. Davis was requested to be in the employ of the Republic National巾业, he called a campaign 'bottle' out of NRA involved to 'the Negro' I had no malicious intent and am yet unable to see anything either unethical or unfair about Davis serving on a 7,000-mile trip and getting finance on a 7,000-mile trip and he did, for as much as the trip 'had to be made for the race, and the National Committee on Joint Recovery obviously could pay his passage seven miles from Washington to Alexandria, Va. Moreover, the young 'fessor' has not yet told who paid for that trip. "As for Mr. Oxley: He and I are friends of long standing. Not only in his files of Labor are returns from the Secretary of Labor are returns from the short, in which I logically but bitterly opposed Oxley's coming to Washington. He wrote him that indemnities of all North Carolina labor were because they were simply advancing their man against 'Senator Copeland's Negro.' (All 'Sams.')

Frances Perkins that the best service Oxley could render the race would be by remaining in North Carolina, and that he would parison with my other friend Karl Philips, whom he succeeded, has been demonstrated as correct.

TWO PAYNE SCHOOL WILL HAVE NEW HEATING PLANT Systems at Three Other Schools to be Repaired at Cost of $15,590 Payne Elementary School, Fifteenth and C Streets, Southeast, is one of the three District schools where the installation of a new heating plant is taking place prior to the opening of schools next month, according to Jere J. Crane, first assistant sueprintendent, this week. The antiquated hot-air heating system is being replaced with a modern steam-heating system at the school. The plants in three other school buildings are being extensively repaired. The Miner Teachers' College will get new boilers costing $6,879. The Shaw Junior High School heating plant is now altered at a cost of $4,351. The M Street heating plant for the Douglas-Simmons Elementary School and the Terrell Junior High School is being repaired at a cost of $4,360. The jobs are expected to be completed by September 15 two days before the opening of schools. One of the major repair jobs of the summer has been the equipping of the Phelps Vocational School with the new type sight-conservation furniture. This furniture, designed by Crane primarily for use in the special sight-conservation classes at the Douglas-Simmons School building, has been successful in the relief of children with impaired eyesight and adopted as standard equipment. The Phelps Vocational School, a new structure, is the first school in the country, to be completely equipped with this sight-aid furniture. Tells Odd Fellows to Get Out of Insurance Field That the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows should "get out and stay out" of the insurance business was the recommendation made to delegates assembled here last week by Grand Master Edward H. Morris, of Chicago. "You made a mistake when you permitted yourselves and order to be caught in the dust cloud of compulsory endowment and carried along to the river of depression," the grand master said. "You made a try, but you undertook to do what God himself never undertook—you tried to make men save themselves who didn't want to be saved. Voluntary endowment is all right; compulsory endowment is all wrong. If a man wants to save himself, help him; if he doesn't want endowment, let him alone. It's high time that this order got out and stayed out of business of compulsory insurance."

POLICE ARREST 4 AT NUDIST PARTY POLICE ARREST 4 AT NUDIST PARTY (Continued from page 1) According to testimony of Officers Eagan, Argo and Blick, the girls accepted marked money to do a dance in a private room. When the dance started the police mads known their identity and arrested the quartet. Left Off Fans Posing as private citizens looking for a good time the officers went to the house early in the day and inquired for a man. They were told that the man wanted would be on hand at a party that night. Returning the officers first gave one of the girls a marked $1 bill to change into nickles and insert in a mechanical musical instrument. This marked dollar was later found on Mrs. Morgan. Later the officers asked two of the girls to do a Sally Rand without the fans. They were given two $1 bills to do this dance. All went into a private room where the affair was to be staged, but hardly had it gotten under way before the cops took the play away from the girls and the next act was staged at a police precinct station. Were Former Actresses The girls, former actresses, denied they did the dance in the nude, but insisted that they wore flimsy affairs over tights. They also claimed they had on shoes and stockings. The three girls were represented by Attorney Henry A. Brown, while Attorney Denny Hughes, white, appeared for Mrs. Morgan. Lawyers intimated after the verdict that they would file a motion for a new trial.

Perry Howard Forms Inter- Racial Foundation in South Mississippi Republican Denies That He Played with Democrats of South, and Has Letter Published to Vindicate Himself JACKSON, Miss, (ANP)—In his recent book, "Beale Street, Where the Blues Began," George W.

It has been reported that Mr. Howard's been reported that Mr. Howard's influence was being used iniquitously as between two Democrats in the Seventh district, but the national committeeman, in effect advises them to go along minding their own business, as he is his, and to please don't mention his name. Writes Letter of Protest Says Mr. Howard in part, writing from Washington: ing from Washington. "In a recent issue of your paper, there appeared an article from the pen of Congressman Ellzey which charged that I, together with some others, have attempted to influence the Democratic primary campaign that is being waged in the Seventh congressional district. "This does me a very grave injustice. "Please say to the good people of Mississippi that I do not know either Mr. Ellzey or Mr. Cloon; that I have never seen either to know them; that I have not even commented in private conversation on the said campaign; that I had nothing to do with Mr. Cloon's appointment as postmaster; that I did not make recommendations under the Hoover administration; that I know nothing whatsoever about the controversy between these two gentlemen and I am strictly minding my own business. "All Mississippiians know that I am a Republican; that I have never at any time meddled in Democratic affairs; that I have never had any controversy with any Democrats at home and I thought that I was at peace with all as much as I am with the Baptist church, and I think it a grave injustice to drag my name into any political contro- BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL Still a Republican "We Republicans will not begin to beat our drums until 1936. "Mississippians and Mississippi, my home, have been good and are good to me and I shall be dragged into nothing that will disturb that kindly feeling and I shall even carry to my grave a bosom of gratitude for the kindness, loyalty and protection that my state and the people thereof have shown to me and mine." Mr. Howard also tells of his perfecting of a norganization known as "The Foundation for Inter-racial Good Will," and remarks that he is never so happy as when he is doing or saying something that makes for peace and good will among the races. Editor Defends Howard "Perry Howard, leader of the Daily News, was evidently touched by Mr. Howard's suave and polite letter, for he commented editorially: "Perry Howard, leader of the Negro Republicans in Mississippi, now practicing law in Washington, says he isn't meddling in the Mississippi primary; that he is not for or against anybody in the pending contests. That is absolutely true. "In the first place, Howard has too much sense to do anything of that sort. Second, his influence would not change any votes, for it is to be a white Democratic primary. Let's leave Howard out of it. He is still the Republican national committieeman for Mississippi but has no part in Democratic affairs." Lynchings Axceed One-a- Week Since June, Roosevelt Told NEW YORK,—President/ Roosevelt was told on Tuesday that "Lynching in the United States since June first have been at the rate of more than one a week." The telegram to the President was sent by Roy Wilkins for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People following the lynching at Michigan City, Mississippi, of Robert Jones and Smith Houey, and again urged Mr. Roosevelt to insist at the opening of the new Congress upon the passage of a federal anti-lynching law. Man Found Hiding in North east Alley After Shooting at 8th and M Apprehended while hiding in an automobile in the rear of 2216 Rhode Island Avenue, Northeast, late last Monday night, John G. Wylie, 1331 Ninth Street, Northwest, was hailed after a coroner's jury, Tuesday morning and ordered held in connection with the fatal shooting, Sunday night, of Mattie McLelland, his alleged common-law wife. Wylie was arrested by Officer O. K. Stanton, white, of the Twelfth Precinct, who went in search for him in response to calls from the neighborhood that a man was seen loitering in a suspicious manner around the rear yards of the community. His arrest of Wylie brought to an end a police lookout for the man, which had been kept up since he shot Mrs. McLelland fatally on the street at the corner of Eighth and M Streets, Northwest. The shooting, according to testimony introduced at the coroner's inquest followed an argument between the man and woman. Police held that it was unprovoked although they were advised that there were no eye-witnesses to the affair. Wylie told officers at headquarters who placed him on the grill just prior to the coroner's inquiry, that he had the gun on him because he had just redeemed it from a "pawn" to a friend at 1143 Eighth Street, Northwest, where they had been visiting and had left just before the argument. The friend, however, denied that he had ever seen the gun. Another story as to the ownership of the revolver was investigated by headquarters detectives and this too was found to be false.

With the 435 congressional districts opening up the first of September, many may be tempted to reach for higher things through political endeavor, whicl action may result in serious trouble. Classified employees, while at work. or on leave, are forbidden to serve on committees, act as officials of political clubs, assist in prepar- fest offensive activity at the polls. However, political appointees are allowed “to take such part in political campaigns as is taken by any private citizen,” except as forbidder. by depatmental regulations. In the instruction to federal appointees appears an article as fol- lows: ; “Competitive employees while retaining the right to vote and to press orivately their opinions on political subjects, are forbidden to take an ac #2 part in political management or in political campaigns. This ‘also applies to temporary employees, employees on leave of absence with or without pay, substitutes, and laborers. Political activity in city, country, state, or national elections, whether primary or regular, or in behalf of any party candidate, or any measure to be voted upon is prohibited.” "Tis true that the country is more political-minde:| now than ever before, but it is best that Federal employees restrict their po- litieal activities to debates in barber shops and lunch rooms where politi- cal chatter goes in one ear of the debaters and out of the other. leaving no impression. ee ee The printing of bonds for the Home Owners Loan Corporation and the Farm Moriage Corporation will result in many finding employment.

Jackson LOS ANGELES—Twenty thou- sand select music lovers, motion picture celebrities and race-loving patrons walked out on the Negro Symphony presented last week in Hollywood as a ‘joint creation of David Brookman and Clarence Muse. Titled, “Harlem Hoa’in” the piece proved to be a light steal rpm every musical score from the Star Spangled Banner to Ra- vel’s “Bolero” with intervals of Gershwin and copious bronx cheers thrown in to thoroughly “moder- nize” the conglomeration of cur- ious instrumentations and. casional belly grunts that made up the musical oddity. Three hundred colored singers were paraded on the stage, robed in white. Right here, I panse to wonder why Negro singers al- ways have to he robed in white to warble their simple _ melodies. George Garner is said to have trained the choir and it is a fact ‘that the group has done com- pmendable work on other occasions. But, “Harlem Hoa'n's” s0-clled Bantu dialect and Broockman's melodic antics proved too muck for them and most of them frank- iy gave it up.

The reports to this time show that the deposits more ‘than double the withdrawals. Many Jarge deposits were made by the repre- Rentative people and organizations of our city. This is indeed gratifying as well as 4 mark of gratitude to the un- tiring efforts of W. H. C. Brown and his associates. The security of the bank in the future Bhoukd not be questioned. The bank is a member of the Federal Deposits In- surance Corporation, which corpora- tion a deposits up to $5,000. The strial Bank’s membership is 3s follows: “This ix ty certify that the Industrial -Barfé of Wasbington, located in Wesh- - Into, fa the Distrtd og Columbia, is } member of the Fund end the deposits in ) ia afte ark are Sunred by thik: Corpors } whit Fuly 1, I9M2"°*The mexknum of } giteh epostts of eacti depositor im this ¥ damik i 95,000." + 4W& are confident ttiat the people of Washington will support this the onky ‘bank of its kind conducted by our peo- pte ?n fhe United States, There were several things that stood im bast Friday’s pugilistic fight at Eris Stadium. The thing that de- ded the greatest attention was the fact that only one colored official was ‘used by the local boxing commission. He was referee Truatt, who was the third man in the ring during the pre- Jaminaries. The commission refused to select a ‘Negro referee to officiate in the main bout between Chocolate and Sarilla de- spite the fact there are three men here ‘as well qualified as Kid Sullivan, white, who was named on the day of the fight. Where were no colored deputies al- ‘though the fight was promoted entirely by colored persons and was the biggest ever staged here. Arthur Green and Al Jones, as well as Truatt, are well qualified referees having successfully passed the exami- nation—the same test that Sullivan did. Since colored men are not permitted to referee white bouts due to segregation foreed on them by whites, it stands to reason that Negroes should be permit- ted to officiate at their own shows. Another thing, Negro promoters of big events can’t count on their “good white friends from downtown” for sup- “port. The crowd at the stadium was over jseven-eigths colored despite the fact there was considerable talk of the ““lange crowd of whites” that was ex- “pected to attend. Negro ringside seat holders were three times the number of “whites, the boxes were predominantly occupied by colored and of course the - lower priced seats were practically all . taken by Negroes. The old saying that ‘Langston Hughes on“Cowards” ‘And “Churches” is Condemned we take issue with his judgment. I believe in “free speech”; that is why I am speaking ffeely. Ont of His Element In the first piace: is not Langs- ton Hughes somewhat out of his element when he criticizes churches and moral codes? He has no posi- tive relation to either religion or morals to fit him for a sympathe- tie understanding of them, It is a8 if an atheist should preseribe for @ Catholic mass, or as if a person or moral “neutral gender” should assume to formulate moral rules for a co-educational institution. Frankly, neither Langston Hugh- e's ideals nor his associates have trained him for a judgeship over religion and morals... , _ ‘There is some truth in Hughes's article. There is some truth in “The Kiensman” and in “The Birth of Nation”, but their total effect is 4 falsehood and a great libel,— which is also the trouble with Hughes's amticle, He secke to excuse himself 3 me Set he is aiming to only the had things: iat could even “poetic license” justify one in ac- septing hospitality in the beautiful homes o? his hard-pressed and struggling friends and then coming away to brondcast only « discrip- ton of _ condition of the be dinner sink, the dark gurmers vellars. the smell of the pig-styes ‘aud the contents of tre toilets? ‘That would indicate one’s mental affinities, A half truth may be the worst cs cia Kel | Blere are cownrti FOUR }4%.

Bring ‘on the worthy attraction and the fans ‘will be there. The white sports writers here, long 2 joke among their fellow journalists of big cities, certainly did their best to put the classy little Cuban fighter on the toboggan. Even after the brilliant showing he made in his comeback, the prejudiced whites on the local papers are trying their best to send him to an early pugitistic grave. All pictured him as a fast dying fighter on his last legs. Most of these writers never saw a prize fight—much less Chocolate— and never had the opportunity to judge the game as experts in other cities where prize fighting has been legalized for years. The Lincoln Athletic Club is to be congratulated for the high-class show of ‘last week. Negroes appreciate ath- letic events of this calibre and the pro- moters may rest assured that the pub- ic will rally to attractions of a high order and the “good white friends” from downtown—who mostly came on passes—need not be counted on when promoters do their part. Kelly Miller Says ~~ PURE NEW DEAL - ‘There is anly one program of action betore the nation as it faces the approaching cam- paign, and that is the New Deel. ‘When President Roosevelt was inaugurated, She Republican proposal for dealing with the spression had been overwhelmingly rejected ‘the electorate, beyond hope of resurrection. Democratic ‘platform was illy suited to le with the emergency. The country was mnted with a condition, and not by a theo- ry. The nation was in the trough of the depres- sion. The banks were closed, factories had been shut down, labor was unemployed, the people were on the verge of starvation. ‘In the language of President Roosevelt, the situation called for “action” and “Action now.” With a courage unparalleled in our history, the President devised, ax if out of hand, a pro- gram of action to meet the emergency. Its provisions were in harmony with the broader scope and purpose of the New Deal. ‘The na- tion adopted Mr. Roosevelt’s proposal and fell in behind him with a unanimity never before witnessed in peace times. The program was frankly experimental. Constructive and corrective criticism was in- vited. Al! hastily improvised measures to meet an emergency will needs be wasteful. Dur- ing the World War, the nation spent billions of dollars which turned out to be pure waste. But short human foresight could do no better. And so it, of necessity, must be with many of the features of Mr. Roosevelt's emergency pro- gram, REPUBLICANS TEMPORARILY KEEP IN STEP ‘The Republican party, overwhelmingly de- feated in the last election, fell in with the Roosevelt program with as good grace as it could until time of the '36 election approached. Then it launched into merciless critizism, not with the intent and purpose of perfecting the New Deal, but of destroying it! The Grand Old Party does not want the New Deal to succeed for fear it (The G.O.P.) would be put permanently out of commission. It would eliminate the New Deal, not by com- parison or substitution, but by destruction. ‘The Republican Party in the heyday of its power and glory, was undoubtedly the greatest and most efficient political organization in the history of American polities. Its two great motivating principles were founded upon hu- man rights and the protective tariff. By its own apostacy, it hag discarded the former Party purged ‘the nation of the foul stain of while the economic advancement of the world at large has outmoded the latter—while moti. vated by these great principles, the Grand Old slavery,‘ reunited the States, humanized the Constitution, developed the resources of the continent and put the nation on the road tc prosperity which made it the richest country on the face of the earth.

For example, he criticizes Tuske- gee Institute for doing something about which the institute hed no choice whatever: for allowing the police of Alabama to take from the school’s hospital a wounded Ne- gro who was arrested for partici- pation in a riot. It was neither the institute’s business nor privi- lege nor power to settle the ques- tion in that instant as to whether this Negro was going to get justice from the state. The school is trying to influence Alabama to obey its own laws in respect to colored people, and therefore the institution would have stultified itself by disobeying the law and becoming an accessory after the fact of any crime. Be- sides, the state would have taker the prisoner, whatever Tuskegee Institute did about it. H I had been an officer of the state I would have taken the prisoner and all of those who op- posed me jn taking him.

LOST ITS CUNNING - But, alas, how has the mighty fallen. The Grand Old Party has lost its strength and cun- ning. It now pathetically faces the electorate without political principles, practical program or sagacious policy, Deprived of the secret of its pristine glory and grandeur, one is re- ‘minded of Samson with his hair cut. The sharpened blade has nothing to cut but con- tents itself with whittling off shavings from Roosevelt's New Deal. ‘We have been accustomed to look to the Re- publican Party for great constructive mea- sures for the welfare of the nation. It used to be said that the Republican Party proposes, God dispozes; while the Democratic Party op- poses. The great Republican leaders used to chide their opponents with the taunt that they could criticise but could not construct, can con- demn but could not create. But the roles seem to have been reversed. The creative, construc- tive genius of the Grand Old Party seems to have shifted to its Democratic rival. Whatever residue the party may still claim to possess is now but a frozen asset. LEADERSHIP IS ALWAYS WITH THE WINNER Of course, the party in power has always the advantage of leadership and initiative, Correc- tive criticism is the prerogative of the minority party. But no one ever supposed that the Party of Lincoln, Grant and Theodore Roose- velt would ever so decline in resourcefulness that it would be content to face an electorate without any positive principles of its own, but would slothfully content itself with picking out party faults in the constructive program of its ment, eis nct too late to hope that the G.0.P. will yet assume its political courage and construc- tive sagacity, ‘The American people need the stimulus of two platforms of rival parties of comparative and competitive merit. If the New Deal is not adequate to meet the demands of the times, let che rival party bring forth its own Deal and vindicate its superior claims. But as the mat- ver now stands partiotic Amercians must stand with Roosevelt and the New Deal, in default of another ‘kind of deal which promises better ings, Our Readers’ Opinions ave SeEgens the iribune He Need tae Next Time and the Facts Will Be Printed To the Editor: ‘The attention of the Tuesday Evening Club has been called to an article in an out-of-town paper of August 11, in reference to the house, 515 M Street, Northwest. The Tuesday Even- ing Club took title to this property six years ago, July, 1928, The club has met its notes promptly ‘and has put in a new heating plant ‘and other improvements amounting to over $1,000, ail of which has been paid. ‘The article to which I refer would give the lerroneous impression that only the first pay- ment has been made on this property. So splendidly have we met our obligations, on this property, that when it became necessary to Tenew our first trust there were three (3) real estate firms ready to take over our mortgage. The statement made by Col. West A. Hamil- ton, in the Washington Sentinel, of July 28, will give your readers a clearer idea of the work of the Tuesday Evening Club than the statement of Major Campbell C. Johnson in the out-of-town paper, The statement follows: “This new association, The Northwest, Set- tlement Board, is building on the foundation laid by Dr. Taliaferro and a devoted group of women, who for many years have worked hard and quietly to procure means to set up a work of the kind proposed, “Under the name of the Tuesday Evening Club of Social Workers, Inc., these women by indefatigable efforts in ‘giving entertainments, ete. raised the necessary cash to take title to and acquire a substantial equity in the property at Sixth and M Streets. “During the past year, due to a realization on the part of others in the community, that a start at placing some type of uplift work in this particular area should be made in this effort, the active interest and support of the ‘members of the Interracial Committee of the Council of Social Agencies was aroused and maintained. During the past several months a quiet campaign to raise a minimum budget of $4,000 for an experimental year’s work has been carried on with such success that now, with the announcement of the directorate, comes word that the Northwest Settlement House Will begin to function on or about September The officers of the Tuesday Evening Club are: Dr. Clara 8, Taliaferro, president: Mrs. I.

That is one incurable fault of the communists: they are thorough- ly unsportsmanlike, in that they expect every other organization to assist at grinding their axes and in pulling their chestnuts out of the fire. ‘ Protests Ought Not Be Empty With the same deep lack of un- derstanding, Hughes also classifies the southern Negro teachers and sosers as “cowards” because they did not stage # lot of loud and showy protests on the Scotts- ‘boro Cases. That is the arrogance ‘of poetic ignorance: the only sané motive for any protest meeting, or for any other meeting, js that there can be a reasonable expecta- tion, or at least a hope, that it will do more good than harm. ‘The people immediately concern- ed must always be the judges as to whether any given protest meet- ing or method will do more good than harm, and the Negroes of any given southern community are much better judges of that than any visitor like Langston Hughes could be. ‘The southern Negro often seeks other, ae effective ways of reaching end which he desires, Many of these educators have been working in behalf of those nine oe ever since they have been in jail. They cannot publish what they do, for they are not living in Harlem or California, and most of them just have too much sense to tell Langston Hughes and the communists about what they do, Whatever may be ultimately achieved in behalf of those boys will be largely due to the unad- vertised work of white and black men of the south, ‘When in 1931 those cases were '{regh and the atmosphere was full oe ee ee >] mingham in Negro colleges 0 -| Alabama, When I said: “Two whit ‘| prostitutes must not be allowed t [swear away the lives of thes |bovs!” I could, see the people 0 the church or the school in which | spoke quake in their seats at sucl language. Did I think they wer: cowards? Not ot all: I knew the} were far braver than I was, fo they had to remain and to live it that place while I, like Langstor Hughes, was going to take the nex! train out to Harlem or for Chicago It was not nearly as brave of me tc say what I said, as it was for ‘them to sit and listen to it, They knew me: and therefore they had exercised more courage in prepar- ing meetings for me to address than I had to exercise in address- ing those meetings. They are courageous almost to the point of foolhardiness, when they welcome to their platforms ‘those outsiders who come among them with their supercilious airs and their profound ignorance of local conditions. Some Can Protest and Run It would have been easy for Langston Hughes ‘to hold a pro- test meeting on some college cam- pus and then leave on the next train, He seems to think the local colored people to be cowards be- cause they do not always protest publicly, immediately, ostentatious- ly and on the spot, against every wrong thing they ‘encounter. But even a fly-by-night knight like Langston Hughes when on a trip through the south, does not do a foolish thing like that. When Langston saw a railroad station in the south, he did not ‘walk directly up to the ticket win- dow marked “for whites” and de- mand to buy his ticket at the win- dow, If he had done so, he would not upon refusal have called a “protest” meeting on the spot. If he traveled on any southern train, he did not go into the car for whites and insisted upon staying or being taken out by force. When he saw a soda fountain, where colored people were not served, he did not demand service, summon a policeman, go to the mat and raise a riot at once. He did none of these things,— not because he is not brave, but because he is not always a fool. Certain protests under certain con- ditions may be much worse than useless,—may even be useful to the enemy. Even a protest must be considered as to time, place and opportunity, Theard and saw Booker T. Wash- ington make a protest. In Birming- ham, Ala., when visiting one of the largest banks, he saw on an elevator: “For ' Negroes and Freight”. He did not storm into the president's office and “demand” its immediate removal. But that night I introduced him to an au- dience of the most intelligent black and white people of the city and the state in local theatre, He told the story of his visit to the bank of the insulting and un- necessary sign, and ‘of how he felt at seeing it. It was the white part of the audience that did the quak- ing on this occasion, ‘The next morning the bank received scores of telephone calls from its best clients, demanding the removal of that barbarous sign. The” sign was removed before noon, and Washington received telephone calls from some of the chief officers of the bank. practi- cally apologizing for the useless insult, and pleading their ignorance that the sign had been posted. *But,” say Langston and_ the communist, “if he had raised a great fuss about it perhaps it would have caused similar signs to be taken down elsewhere”. But on the other hand, such a course might have kept that sign up and caused others to go up. ; Another Washington Protest At another time Washington was making a speaking tour through the Carolinas occampanied by a pullman car load of the leading colored men of the country. Wher they stopped at a small town anc asked the almost empty statior dining-room to prepare meals fo them, the food was prepared, bu tre food and tablecloths and ‘nap kins and dishes were all brough out into the sunshine and spread ed out on the railroad tracks, fo Washington and his party to squa vlown and eat. Does Langston Hughes suppos that Booker Washington was | coward because he did not stag a protest meeting on the spot an fmarch back into that dining-roor and let the head waiter and th {cooks know just how much he re | sented this inhuman treatment? | Well, he ate his dinner, and | few days later he was standing fac |to face in Atlanta, Ga. with 140 | people made up of ‘the leading Ne loan ahilonte: aed teachers at th The NRA - An Interpretation Alabama, and when they’ sent a1 intimidating delegation to fore ‘him to sign a statement to suppor their plans for white control of the United States Hospital for Negr soldiers, which is located on lanc given to the government by Tuske gee Institute, flatly and at the risk of his threatened life refuse to sign that statement, Moton did that, but he never rushed into print’ and has neve bragged about it: he is still in Ala- bama. If Hughes or I had done that, it would have been published the very next month in the Crisis —but Hughes and I would have been living in New York or in San ‘Francisco, Hughes's Inferiority ‘Complex Now, let me adopt the Hughes method for a moment and tell him how to run some of his own busi- ness: in his article telling about the “cowards” whom he has met, he tells how he went to call on Newbold, the white man who is in charge of eolored public schools in North Carolina; of how Newbold’s secretary, an employe, ignored him when he entered her office, refus- ing to ask him even the usual dis- courteous question of “What do you want?” and of how he resented the petty insult of this insignificant employe and walked dut.—and never saw Newbold, Langston, that was not exactly the most effective way to act: you did not give yourself a fair chance, and you gave no chance at all to Newbold, who no doubt would have been glad to see you and to repri- mand his hired help. But you put yourself too much on a level with the hireling white girl by show- ing such resentment at her failure to recognize you. A really “big” man, who did not feel so dependent upon recognition by anybody, would not have allowed himself to be defeated of his main purpose by such a person, I can imagine Washington or Moton or James Johnson, and a lot of other people, ignoring the attitude of that white girl and telling her what they wanted: “I am here to, see Mr. Newbold, Kindly tell him that Mr. is calling, and give him my card.” Do you get what I mean? T remember calling to s00 a great merchant in a New York hotel. The servants were refusing to take me up in the guest elevators; I was refusing to go up in the service elevators. I did not turn and run before them: I demanded telephone connection with the merchant, and in a few minutes I had my business with D. Stuart Dodge. He was a bit chagrined. I was not. I cared not a fig for the underlings, ex- cept that they were a temporary annoyance to me. I could not flat ter them by “insulting them back.” Again I went to call on Clarence Darrow at the Belmont Hotel. The servants tried to tactfully steer me to the service elevator. I told them in even but unmistakable tones that I was not a servant nor calling on servants, but was there to see a guest of the hotel and would be treated only as a guest, adding: “If you perfer, you may put me on the wire to Mr. Darrow’s room, and I'll explain to him the situation and let him come down to see me.” I need not tell the rest of the story: in his room, Darrow and his wife and I used the incident as an illustration of the things we wanted to discuss. We had many other illustrations, Real courage, Langston, is not insult for insult, nor an impotent peevishness. Those poor human qualities may be the heralds or the apologists for defeat.

For President Roosevelt had ask BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL Says Intervention Brought Political Stability to Haiti Pony ANUEL R. ROQUE | Fiscal Agents Named by President | Roosevelt’s foreign policy of “the good neighbor,” enunciated long before he consider- ed the presidency, is already hav- ing its saultatory effect on our sis. ter republics along the Caribbean In the case of Haiti, which this week will mark another significant milestone in its history, with the withdrawal of American armed forces, from the island, the Admin- istration may well point out with pride at its accomplishment down there as exhibit “A” on the New Deal’s shelf of international amity and good-will. Long before President Roosevelt came to Washington he showed a great deal of interest in those countries below the Tropic of Can- cer, in which internation! “rugged individualism” was unquestionably usurping the rights of nationals and the perogative of a people to say who should and who should not dictate and regulate their life with- in their own borders, . Sovereignty of Other Nations Should Be Respected It was while still Governor of New York that Mr. Roosevelt said: “The time has come when we must accept not only certain facts, but many principles of a higher law, a newer and better standard in inter- national relations. We sre. exesei ingly zealous of our sovereignt and it E only right that we should respect a similar feeling among other nations. The people of the other republics of this western world are just as patriotic, just as proud of their sovereignty. Neither from argument of financial gain, nor from the sounder reasoning of the Golden Rule, can our policy, or lack of policy, be approved.” And now, the policy of Mr. Roose- velt enunciated has taken hold. For he left no doubt, no loopholes as to what his intentions would be if he were placed in a position to remedy conditions which the world had begun to consider undemocrat- ic and unbecoming a nation that had won its spurs fighting the very things that it was being accused of committing, Haiti, in particular, which has seen almost a quarter of a cen- tury of outside dominance, has had the good fortune of meeting with a man of President Roosevelt’s ex- traordinary caliber, who believes that a nation like an individual, must have due protection from encroachments, however expedient they may seem from whatever pol- icy or lack of it, Pauses to Take Stock of Neighbor's Plight It would seem, therefore, that the Administration, which in this case spells President Roosevelt's New Deal applied to international affairs, has shown a high degree of understanding of what consti- tutes friendly international ¢o- operation and good-will. And at the moment this is made doubly significant by the fact that the Administration has paused long enough from its huge recovery pro- gram to take stock of another na- tion’s plight. The New Deal showed its head in the Caribbean on August 7, 1933. searcely five months after Presi- dent Roosevelt had taken the oath of office, Apparently his words of 1928 were as fresh in his mind as when he first spoke them, for an agreement was made at this time which gave the Haitians a pleasant jolt, It was agreed then that the Marines would be withdrawn after a speical date, while at the same time a Treaty of Friendship was effected which provided for the re- vamping of the existing relations between the two counties. Until then the affairs of the island had been administered by American fiseal and military agents on the island, while it was admitted by both sides that the presence of the Marine Brigade gave the people of Haiti a feeling of helplessness and inferiority. + ; ed every employer in industry and trade to enter into an agreement with him. It was an appeal to “opinion and conscience.” ‘The President’s Reemployment Agree- ment was a device to speed up par- ticipations in the NRA program. Tt was to be in effect until De- cember 31, 1983, or until a code of fair competition was adopted. Lat- er the period was extended to April 30, 1934, and still later the President's Reemployment Agee- ment was extended for all indus- tries in which no code of fair com- petition had been approved by April 30, 1934, until the time that a code is ‘approved for that industry. Cooperators are given the Blue Eagle, which is the symbol of co- operation for industry and_trade. Consumers also receive it, if they signify their intention of participa- tion by support of Blue Eagle es- tablishments. A Blue Eagle Divi- sion was set up in the National Recovery Administration. The main points in this agree- ment were the elimination of child labor; the establishment of a 35- hour ‘week for industrial workers and a 40-hour week for office or clerical workers; minimum wages ranging between $12 to $15 weekly, and between 30 cents to 40 cents an hour, according to size of city; '& promise to limit price increases to amounts necessary because of increased production cost; a pledge ‘to support other cooperators in the movement. These were voluntary agreements, and should be distin- guished from the codes of fair com- petition. The whole effort was re- garded as a temporary one in order Fiscal Agents Named by President of Haiti Practically all this was removed by the treaty with the exception of the fiscal management of the is- land. But even then the Haitians would have the advantage, as th. by the President of Haiti ‘and not fiscal agents would be appointed by the United States as was the case before, Until President Roosevelt took a hand in the affairs of Haiti, there was a prevalent belief that the presence of the Marines on the is- land was an encroachment on the rights of a sister republic and that it was, to say the least, “An un- provoked deed of unwarranted and aggressive imperialism.’ ‘As a result of this belief, there was, for many years, a great deal of apathy of Latin-American peo- ple for America. They had begun to brand the United States as the “Colossus from the North,” and with Marines in Haiti and Nicara- gua, the situation did not lend it- self to anything but approbium and critical ridicule, Just what caused the United |States to send Marines to Haiti in 1915 has been a bone of contention among international observers. One theury is that they were sent there to protect American investments on the island whie the other is that they were sent down there to pre- serve American neutrality during ‘the great war, as it was said that Germany had designs on the island as a convenient outpost from where she could continua to carry out her program of submarine warfare, As to the charge that Marines were sent down there to provect Ameri- can javestors, critics” point out to the manouvers of American bank- ing interests on the island. Democrats Sent Myrines to Country However, politically speaking, it must be noted that it was a Demo- cratic administration which first sent the Marines down there, and that now a Democratic administra tion has risen to the occasion and erased whatever stigma interna- tionalists, and critics attached to American intervention. And politically, too it should be noted that nothing was done to remedy the situation during twelve years of Republican rule. With their laissez-faire policy of “do nothing,” the Republicans closed their ears to the many protesta- tions, and all they did was to send a few commissions to “study” con- ditions on the island. Somehow the attitude of the Republicans was that the child belonged to the Dem- ocrats and that it was for the Dem- ocrats to take it home with them when, and if, they ever had the op- portunity. “And the opportunity did come, and. despite all criticism, even Haifians are aprecing that the country is better off today for hav- ing experienced what many have termed a “national affront.” Country Better Off, Says Mr. Roque For one thing, America’s presence on the island left g beneficial im- print. Even the most critical ob- server will agree that the people are better off today than they were twenty years ago. Intervention brought to the island both political stability and economic security, Roads have been built; the edu- cational system has been modern- ized; the military has been re- organized and disciplined; hospital- ization and sanitation have been improved; and the intelligent use of the ballot has supplanted the knife and dagger. In other words, the imprint left by the Americans may well be tak- en as pointing the way for a safer, saner and happier living among the Haitian people. and for a greater degree of understanding in their interchange with other nations of people. As President Roosevelt said in his visit to the island last month, “The Republic can look for- ward to the future with the great- est confidencé,” to tide over the period of code mak- ing. Numerous exceptions, known as substitutions, were made for cer- tain industries by the NRA Policy Board in order to prevent. hard- ships. Local voluntary compliance boards functioned as adjustment agencies, but had no final jurisdic- tion in any cases they handled. In cases of failure to observe the agreement, Blue Eagles were with- drawn by the complaint section of the Blue Eagle Division of the NRA (later the Compliance Divi- sion). The program helped to inform the public about NRA aims and methods. The Blue Eagle is serv- ing a useful function and has made a place for itself in America in- dustry. Individual Blue Eagles are now prepared for the use of mem- bers of particular trades and indus. tries operating under approved codes of fair competition, Such insignia, in addition to identifying the code under which it is issued, bears a number identify- ing the firm, corporation, or indi- vidual entitled to display it. As ith the PRA Blue Eagle, this in- vidual Blue Eagle is the proper- ty of the United States and wil be removed by NRA for infraction of the code. (Chntaeed weit: week) The New York (N.Y.)

Society Went Puglistic Minded Last Week Nearly every activity whether it be religious, educational, fratern- al, sporting or what not has its social side and in this cosmopolitan age when youth associates with age, when the religious fanatics rub shoul- ders with the sporting element, when the college student js the daily associate of his less educated brother we never hesitate to go and en- joy an event which is worthwhile and a source of pleasure. So it was with the interesting boxing contest staged at Griffith Stadium by the Lincoln Athletic Association with Dr. W. A. Goodloe, Ernest Jarvis, John Carter and M. M. Harris when Kid Chocolate met Andre Sarilla, last Friday evening, Everybody was there. Fully seven or eight thousand people supported the event. The grandstand as well as the rink-side was crowded with specta- tors of both races and women as well as men were very much in evi- lence. The ring-side, lighted of course with very bright lights in contrast to the grandstands which was darkened in order that the boxing plat- form might stand out, was filled with many of the prominent men of the community and.their wives, the’ officers of the boxing commission, many members of the Cuban Legation ete. A very colorful sight was presented and the ladies in attractive sport costumes added that touch of feminine lovliness and enthusiasm which could not have been gotten otherwise. Women of today can talk about and enjoy an event of this kind as much as the men, This fact was evidenct by their yells and cheers from time to time. After the contest was over many of the spectators crowded various rendezvous where spicy entertainment was scheduled to complete the evening’s pleasure, A reception was tendered Kid Chocolate at the Chalcedony Inn the next evening (Saturday) from 4 to 12 p.m. A very large crowd was present. A delicious repast was served all of the guests, - ‘The committee in charge was Henry W. Greene, Shep Allen, Rufus Byars, John W. Carter, W. A. Goodloe, Percival Hamilton, Leo Wil- liams, George E.

The af- fair had been scheduled for the pre- ious Sunday but due to the rainy weather was’ postponed a week. Every detail had been previously arranged and a reviewing stand profusely decorated had been erect- ed specially for this event. The entrants parade with their attrac- tive bathing suits brought many cheers from the spectators. The contest was very close with Miss Doris Brown of Washington win- ning first place and Mrs. Gertrude Jones also of Washington taking second honors; Miss Frances Black- burn of Baltimore, Md., _ third place; Miss Helen Holland of Bal- timore, fourth place and Miss Mary Duvall’ of Baltimore, fifth place. Of course, as usual, and we might Say as was expected, perhaps the decision of the judges did not wholly meet the approval of some but with that crowd of beautifully formed as well as attractively clothed maidens, the judges, Dr. W. A. Goodloe, Dr. Henry Greene and Prof. H. M. Gross of Baltimore were forced to he very critical and take in every detail and eliminate very carefully—for as was said be- fore the contest was very close, The members of the Litcole Ath- Jetic Association were present with Kid Chocolate who enjoyed the event immensely and was photo- ktaphed with the winners, Many prominent in business and social circles were present among whom were Hon.

Lanceford, who is widely acclaimed as the "New King of Syncapation," is director of one of the most popular colored orchestras on the radio today. His band succeeded Cab Calloway's at the famous Cotton in Harlem early in 1934, and was heard on the air waves twice weekly from that rendezvous. Lanceford and his band of rhythm makers recently completed a road tour through the Middle West, and it was because of the enthusiastic response accorded his music during that trip that Columbia Artists Bureau signed him up upon his return to New York. Lanceford is a graduate of Fisk University, where he was a four letter man in athletics. Here, too, he began his musical career, first learning the guitar and subsequently taking up the study of the saxophone, the clarinet, the trombone and the flute. Elaborate plans are in the making to present Lanceford and his group of versatile musicians under the Columbia banner.

WEEK ENDING AUGUST 25. 1934 SOUTHERNAIRES TO SING FOR BAB-O SURPRISE PARTY NEW YORK — The Southernaires quartet, famous NBC Negro vocal harmony group, noted from coast-to-coast for their distinctive renditions of the songs of their race, will be Little Miss Babo's guests at the Sunrise Party broadcast over an NBC-WEAF network on Sunday, August 26 at 2:30 p.m. E. S. T. The Southernaires, who will contribute Negro spirituals and popular songs to the program, went on the air four years ago after they had won a tremendous following among their own people with their harmonizations of the songs of the old Southland. Previously they had spent much time in research, collecting and arranging music which had been sung during slave days and subsequently forgotten by all but a few of the older Negroes. Composed of William Edmondson, Homer Smith, Jay S. Toney and Lowell Peters, the group has become one of radio's most popular vocal ensembles. In addition to their microphone work they have one of the most sought after quartets for private and social affairs. The Southernaires will share time at the broadcast with Little Miss Bab-O (Mary Small), the child singer, who will offer several popular songs, and William Wirges' Orchestra.

MISCELLANEOUS RECIPES THAT HIS MAJESTY WILL BE PLEASED WITH COMPILED BY GERTRUDE C. FRAZIER Rice Recipes Here are three recipes that you should put in your recipe scrapbook: Mix and sift the dry ingredients combine them with the rice carefully, add the milk, egg yolks, well-beaten, butter, and the stiffly-beaten egg whites. Cook the same as for other waffles. Serve with maple syrup or honey. ½ cup rice 1 stalk of celery 1 small onion ½ teaspoon pepper ½ teaspoon pepper 3 cups chicken broth 3 cups water or milk ½ cup minced chicken 1 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons butter Toasted Rice Biscuit Substitute a cupful of boiled rice, that is flaky and dry, for half a cupful of flour in your baking pow- der biscuit recipe. Bake as usual and when cold split apart with a fork as this gives a rough surface that toasts more deliciously than a smooth one which cutting with a knife would give. Wash the rice and cook slowly in the chicken broth and water or milk. As soon as the mixture reaches the boiling point, add the onion and celery. Cook the ingredients until tender. Remove the onion and celery, add the minced chicken, butter and seasoning and cook ten minutes longer. This will make five or six average servings. Toast these until as brown as a summer at the beach and then, forgetting the calories and the grocery bill, butter them lavishly and serve both them and the shrimps sizzling hot. • Spanish Rice 3 small onions ½ cup fat ½ cup uncooked rice 3 cups of canned tomatoes 2 green peppers 1 teaspoon salt hot. 4 cup 3 cup ¼ cup Spanish Rice onions cooked rice 1 canned tomatoes peppers on salt onions and cook until lightly browned in the Remove them and add which has been washed rice in the fat until it stirred constantly, cooked onions, toma- Crumb Pie 4 cups flour 3 cups sugar 1/4 cup butter, mixed fine.

ISOUSSED I CONVENTION NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Dr. George Bowles, of York Pa., chair- man of the advisory board of the National Negro Health Movement, declared in an address at the meeting Wednesday night of the National Medical Association con- vention at Meharry Medical Col- lage, that “A. very definite respon- lity “devolves upon the Negro race to work against the 3 to 1 death rate of the members of the race from tuberculosis, as compar- ed to deaths among the white race from the disease. He continues: “The tuberculosis death rate should and must demand our ‘most serious thought and while to a large measure we are not wholly responsible, neverthe- Jess there devolves upon us a very serious, definite respon- ‘sibility and we cannot evade ¥ts. consequences. sree uree mate ealth veoh blems.of the American Negro can be classified in. three groups—tuberculosis, venereal diseases, maternal and infant mortality.” When he referrea to the need of the race as a whole to’ unite and fight the disease of syphilis, Dr. Bowles said that “not in the an- nals of medicine, not in the history of society, not in-all the travels of human disease, is: there as much unwarranted public reticence and prudery. in the enlightenment of the public as to the true origin prevention and cure of a terrible human scourge, that is daily” ex- hibited in the false modesty, the veil of secrecy that is thrown around’ venereal ‘disease by the in- telligent laity and the medica profession.” i Dr, Hugh Morgan, of the Van- debilt: University School of Medi- cine, and Dr, M.J.

BLOCKER McCULLOUGH IS ENDORSED FOR STATE'S ATTORNEY McCULLOUGH IS ENDORSED FOR STATE'S ATTORNEY At an overflow meeting of the executive committee of the Independent Voters' Political Welfare Organization of Maryland, last Thursday, many evidences were displayed, reflecting the response of Negroes throughout the State, to help wield Negro organized power, that it may even now be accepted that candidates will win or lose, depending upon the support of this group. The meeting was held at Hillcrest Manor, Grennock, Maryland, whose proprietor is Mrs. Anna Robinson. Among the many highlights of the session was a frank, candid and courageous speech by the honored guest Attorney Robert W McCullough, of Cheverly, Maryland, who is a candidate for State's Attorney in the Democratic primaries against Alan Bowie. Mr. McCullough's speech eliminated the necessity of a quiz by the committee. He declared himself sound and just on the Negro question, and stated further that when elected to the position of State's Attorney of Prince George's County his every aim would be a "single standard" of prosecution and recommendations of clemency and mercy whenever justified. McCullough, declared, however, that it is hard to help a downtrodden people, unless they, too, make an effort to help themselves, and that it was his belief that the Independent Voters' Organization is not only to be praised, but is now recognized as a permanent, constructive, political unit, to be reckoned with in the affairs of the State of Maryland. McCullough Endorsed A motion by Attorney James C. Waters, to endorse Robert W. McCullough for State's Attorney of Prince George's County, and recommend his nomination and ultimate election, was unanimously voted upon. The presentation to the proper federal officials of resolutions, protesting the practical exclusion of colored women from employment in the government departments, in any capacity above the grade of elevator operator or charwoman, was authorized. Charles M. Thomas, teacher, made a short, inspiring talk on race solidarity, and advised the formation of various committees to carry on an educational campaign, so that the strength of the colored voters throughout the country could be united, in an effort to promote the welfare of the race, and so that the vote could not be used as a tool for "party supremacy" regardless of the benefits that might be denied the colored voter. Plans Fall Meeting Plans for a fall convention in Baltimore were elaborated upon. Just prior to adjournment, greetings were presented by a special messenger from Congressman Stephen W. Gambrill, expressing his regret at being unable to be present at this meeting, and reminding the Independent Voters' Organization that the good which they were doing was of great benefit to the state and society. He further hoped that they would continue their excellent work, appreciating always their faith in him. Night Prowlers Ransack Booker T Theatre Thieves entered the Booker T Theatre, located in the 1400 block of U Street, Northwest, last week, and made away with approximately $10 in cash. According to Montrell Montgomery, manager of the U Street picture house, 1115 Q Street, Northwest, the intruders gained entrance by jimmying a rear door sometime between closing time Monday night and early Tuesday morning. They broke a candy machine in the lobby of the theatre and took $5 from it, smashed a telephone from the wall and stole the money from the collection box. Police say they also attempted to enter several desks on the second floor but failed. Attempt to Elude Police Lands Man in Hospital Attempting to elude police whom he believed were after him, Noble Davis, 27, 1529 Eighth Street, Northwest, jumped from a one-story window, Tuesday, injuring his left arm. First aid treatment was administered at Freedmen's Hospital and Davis was later arrested by Second Preceinte police and held for investigation.

HEALTH SURVEY BEING MADE BY CITIZENS GROUP Dr: Thompkins Flays Local Physicians for Failure in Health Drive The Citizens Joint Conference of Civic, Welfare and Educational Groups at its meeting last Monday reported that a survey is being completed which will include every colored person on relief in the District. The survey is being made in connection with the proposed establishment of well baby stations and health centers in Washington. The project is being sponsored by Dr. William J. Thompkins, recorder of deeds, who has taken an interest in the health problem among Negroes in the District. Dr. Ionia R. Whipper is chairman of the conference and is directing the drive for better health here.

As outlined by Dr. Whiper the survey will include the number of persons on relief, number that should be on relief, number of children in the community under five years and the general health conditions of the community in which the survey is made. Others who are taking active part in the drive for better health are Dr. J. A. Keene, Mrs. Katie Agnes Brown, Mrs. Harriett A. Lee, Joseph Montgomery, Mrs. Ella Lofton. Mrs. Alma J. Scott, Dr. George L. Johnson, Dr. Donald McC. Harper and Mrs. Martha Simpson. John T. Rhines presided at the meeting. THEATERS SPORTS NINE RDS HERE Patients men's k-end Most Houses Uninhabitable and Some Have Been Comdemned NINE RENT 45 PER CENT HIGHER HERE THAN IN OTHER CITIES Charges that an "unjustifiable" amount of rent is being paid for hundreds of uninhabitable dwellings in the District, and that "terrible housing conditions" exist among families on relief, are contained in a report released by Leroy A. Halbert of the District Emergency Relief. The report is based on a survey made by C. W. A. Workers of 6,595 individual cases. According to the report, rents are at least 45 per cent higher in Washington than in other cities. Halbert declared that on the strength of the survey, some of the unfortunate people on the relief rolls are paying rent for houses which actually have been condemned by health authorities. The report further declared that of the families studied, 31 per cent are using kerosene lamps for illumination and 70 per cent are using stoves for heat. The majority of these, it said, are wood stoves. 10 in One Room Serious overcrowding and lack of sanitary facilities and other ordinary conveniences are stressed in the report which said that in one extreme case 10 persons were occupying one room. In another case it was found that seven persons were occupying a single room. In 18 cases, families of six were living in one room; in 64 cases families of five; in 162 cases, families of four; and in 403 cases, families of three. In addition to the overcrowding, Halbert said the lack of proper air, space and privacy are "no more pathetic than the lack of proper facilities of other kinds beside space." After citing the lack of sanitary facilities, Halbert suggested the construction of public bath houses supplied with year around bath rooms. 980 Have No Sinks Inadequate toilet facilities were found in 3,939 houses; no sink in 980; three or more families using the same sink in 515; running water in 941; no soap connection in 458; broken stairs in 484; broken windows in 1.7 and no windows at all in 1 rooms. Halbert said the unfit he should be demolished. FIVE NAMED ON HOUSING BODY In a letter to Mrs. Virginia McGuire, president of the Washington Branch of the N.A.A.C.P., John H.
