LOST WILL FIGURES IN BIG ESTATE Parties Agree to Compromise in $20,000 Estate of Mrs. Bloodsaw
The $20,000 estate of the late Mrs. Eva D. Bloodsaw was distributed Friday morning, in the District Supreme Court, presided over by Justice Peyton Gordon, when in the midst of a hearing of the petition to establish a lost will, the parties agreed to compromise. Mrs. Florence Downs Garnier, 156 West 120th Street, New York City, received five twelfths of the estate and the remaining portion was allotted to the heirs-at-law. The heirs-at-law are George Lewis, Albert Lewis, Marcellus Lewis, Leslie Lewis, Ruby Lewis, and Thelma Lewis, all residents of Philadelphia, and are nieces and nephews of Eva D. Bloodsaw. John Lewis Eastman, Georgia; Ella Kane, Charles Lewis, of New York, are nieces and nephews of Mrs. Bloodsaw, and Mattie Williams, cousin of Washington.
The petition to establish the lost will was filed by Richard E. Wellford, white, collector of the estate who was also named executor in the will. Wellford was represented by the law firm of Hart, Marshall, & Whiteford, while the heirs-at-law were represented by Attorney Augusta Gray, Benjamin L. Gaskins, and Thurman L. Dodson.
Wellford Drew Will
Testimony presented at the hearing brought out the fact that the will had been drawn for Mrs. Bloodsaw by Wellford, who is a practicing attorney. Wellford was named in the will as executor. Mrs. Garnier, of New York, was named sole beneficiary under the lost will. After the death of Mrs. Bloodsaw on November 12, 1933, Wellford made a diligent search for the original will but was unable to find it. He produced a copy of the original and filed a petition to establish the lost will as the last will and testament of Mrs. Bloodsaw.
In attempting to prove the will, Wellford, stated that Mrs. Bloodsaw came into his office shortly before her death with C. E. Robinson.

The supplanting of colored mess attendants at the U.S. Naval Academy, Annapolis, with Filipino academies was strongly protested by the Inter-Racial Committee of the D.C. Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People this week.
The Rev. R. W. Brooks, chairman of the committee, wrote the following letter to Claude A. Swanson, Secretary of the Navy, this week:
"Our Committee on Race-relations views with great alarm the proposal on the part of the naval officials, to supplant colored men as mess attendants at the Naval Academy, with enlisted Filipinos.
"We go on record as opposing such a proposal for the following reasons: First, we oppose it for economic reasons. The men who are now employed at the Academy have established homes in Annapolis, and no doubt have dependant families. To throw them out of employment would mean that we increase our own unemployment situation, and perhaps at the same-

Local Man Charges Bigamy and Infidelity to Errant Wife
Claiming his wife had participated in a marriage subsequent to his own and had lived with another man as his wife, Richard Mansfield, 430 P Street, Northwest, asked for an absolute divorce from Mrs. Bessie Mansfield, early this week. The bill was filed by Attorney Thomas F. Beckett in the District Supreme Court.
Mrs. Mansfield, now said to be living with a man named Hayes at 980 French Street, Northwest, was married to the plaintiff on August 12, 1917, according to the petition. Shortly after that were married, Mrs. Mansfield left her husband and went to Baltimore where in 1921 she is alleged to have gone through a bigamous marriage with Alexander T. Waller of that city.
Called Bigamist
A copy of the license for this later marriage, performed in 1921, was attached to the bill of Mr. Mansfield, Mr. Waller, the Tribune was informed by counsel for the complainant, has since died. Mrs. Mansfield returned to the city and, according to Mr. Beckett, is living at the French Street address.
On the application for the license for the Baltimore marriage, the bride's name is given as "Bessie Ware."
Mr. Mansfield states that his wife has not lived with him for nearly 15 years and seeks relief from the husbandry. His prayers to the court include a request for absolute divorce. Adultery is the principal allegation encouched in the bill.
JESSIE O. THOMAS STRESSES
NEW DEAL IN EDUCATION
GREENSBORO, N. C. — "A new deal in education and a new deal in Government," was the theme of a lecture given by Jessie O. Thomas, director of the Southern Branch of the national Urban League before the faculty and student body of the A. and T. College last Thursday.

time increase our rolls for relief. "We also oppose it because it would be setting a dangerous precedent. For individuals to be removed from employment in any form of government service, at will by superiors, without any particular reason or justification, opens the way in other industries for all kinds of injustice, which may lead to great suffering and perhaps tragedy. "We oppose it further, because it is unjust, and no doubt will increase our difficulties in trying to bring about better race-relations. Some of these men have put in long years of faithful service. They have built around their jobs their entire plan of life. To disrupt this without apparent justification, will not only bring about hardships and suffering, but it will create hatred and suspicion, and will make a fertile field for Communism.
"We therefore appeal to you, Mr. Secretary, as the chief executive of this department of our government service, to use your good offices in seeing that justice is done."

He was out under a heavy bond. The lower court had tried, convicted and sentenced Bishop Grace to one year and a day in prison. The Bishop is now in Washington where he maintains a palatial home or Logan Circle. S. H. Keets, of the 900 block of U Street, is the bishop's fiscal agent here.

DESPONDENT GIRL TRIES SUICIDE
Theatre Patrons Startled as 19-Year-Old Collapses at Show
A 19-year-old girl, despondent because of impending motherhood, all but threw the afternoon at the Howard Theatre into a state of confusion, Wednesday, when she became suddenly stricken and had to be rushed to Freedmen's Hospital for treatment.
Reports of attempted suicide mingled with assertions that the girl, Margaret Jackson, a maid at 6110 Broad Branch Road, Chevy Chase, Md., had merely taken a drug to offset the condition.
The name of Adolphus Jones, also 19 years of age, living at 76 0 Street, Northeast, was linked with the girl's case. She told hospital authorities and police of the Second Precinct that she had drank a potion to alleviate the possibility of becoming a mother. In her statement to the Tribune this morning (Thursday) Miss Jackson also implicated Jones.
**Condition Not Serious**
Falling into a faint, the girl was armored from her seat, placed in a taxicab by William Rollins, 465 M Street, Northwest, and carried to the hospital. There she was treated by Dr. H. L. Stevens. An improvement in her condition permitted her to return to her home. She reported for work as usual, Thursday morning.
Notified of the incident, young Jones went to the hospital and remained with Miss Jackson until she was sufficiently recovered to leave. He accompanied her to the Bread Branch address.

P. O. CLERKS PROTESTING SEGREG'TION
Separate Accomodations Being Prepared For Colored Workers
Segregation in the new wing of the Railway Mail Service Terminal in the United States Postoffice here was vigorously protested by the National Alliance of Postal Employees in a letter to H. M. Link, chief clerk in charge of the terminal, this week.
This terminal which is an addition that is to be completed this month employs some 35 colored men and about 50 whites. The colored men have been notified that they are to have separate washrooms and locker rooms and a jim crow section has been, walled off within the building for the Negro clerks in this section although the members of the two races work together daily.
Promises Probe
Mr. Link verbally acknowledged the receipt of the protest and promised an investigation. He denied that the proposed segregation plan was ordered by him and stated that he did not approve the action. However, he did not say who was responsible for the segregation of the workers. Members of the Postal Alliance point out that segregation in government buildings and especially the Postoffice has no precedent here as all other public buildings have no such arrangement. The following letter of protest was sent Mr. Link by Thomas P. Bomar, president of the alliance.

Former Washington Lawyer Scores in Last Minute Vote Barrage
CHICAGO, Ill. (Special to the Tribune)—With only a few more votes to be counted and his rival boasting a majority of over 3,000, Oscar DePriest conceded the election to Arthur W. Mitchell in the fight for the seat in the House of Representatives as congressman from the first district.
The concession came only after one of the most bitter political battles in the history of Chicago's south side. News services, keeping in constant touch with the trend of the Chicago balloting, were reluctant throughout the morning (Thursday) to make any definite statements as to the outcome. The lead changed hands with such frequency that neither candidate could be described as the potential winner until after midday.
The advantage see-sawed with the fluctuation of votes. On one occasion the victor and vanquished each enjoyed the lead three times within a 45-minute period. A last minute rush of Mitchell votes, however, swept him into a commanding position.
The latest tabulation showed: Mitchell, 27,966; DePriest, 24,840.
DePriest was first sent to Washington in 1928 and represented in three congresses. He survived the Democratic avalanche in 1932, but this year for the first time he was opposed by a colored man, Mitchell, 37 years old, studied at Harvard University, Tuskegee and Columbia. Colored ballots in the first district had helped to hold it as a Republican stronghold for years.
Mitchell, a Lawyer
Mitchell was born in Alabama, and earned a distinguished record as an educator before he left to take up the practice of law in Washington, D.C. He was in Washington for two decades nearly until after the election of 1928 when he moved with his family to Chicago. In the 1928 campaign Mr. Mitchell was employed at the Republican western headquarters in Chicago. Not long after Hoover was elected, he professed himself disappointed by the Hoover policies, and changed his political affiliation. He was an active supporter of Franklin D. Roosevelt in the campaign of 1932.
In the campaign just closed, Mr. Mitchell charged that Mr. DePriest had neglected the vital interests of his constituents. He met the DePriest charge that the "New Deal" had meant misery to many Negroes, by stating that although some Negroes might have suffered in establishing the program, the general direction of "New Deal" aims was in line with betterment for all classes including the Negro and that time would bring benefits.
Iodine Used in Suicide Attempt by Belle Collins
Apparently in an attempted suicide, Belle Collins, 38, 725 Fourth Street, Northwest, drank iodine while standing at Eight and R. Streets, Northwest, early this week.

Both Sides Stand Pat In Fight Between Elk Leader and 2 Lodges
Morning Star and Columbia Elk Lodges went ahead this week with their original plans to entertain the grand lodge session here next August despite the threat of the grand exalted ruler, J. Finley Wilson, to move the grand lodge session to another city unless his appointee, Dr. Charles Fisher, is accepted chairman of the entertainment committee.
Wilson called the action of the two lodges in naming Herbert Jones, past exalted ruler, as general chairman of the committee, rebellion and mutiny. On the other hand the lodges claim it's their sovereign right to name the chairman and if they permit the grand exalted ruler to take this step nothing can prevent him from coming into the lodges and selecting their officers.
One high Elk official here stated this week that the action of the grand exalted ruler has done more to consolidate the two lodges than anything else. They are in perfect harmony for the first time in history. Both are standing pat on the selection of Jones as was demonstrated here Monday and Tuesday when both lodges again endorsed Jones for the position without a dissenting vote. Morning Star met Monday night and Columbia, Tuesday.
"This is not a fight on the grand exalted ruler," said Charles M. Cornish, reporter for the Columbia Lodge. "Nor is it a fight on Dr. Fisher. It is the principle of the thing. We are hosts to the grand lodge and they are our guests. We are responsible financially and otherwise for the success of the session here next August. It's our sovereign right to select our chairman and committee."
"The two lodges are showing more solidarity than ever before," said Cornish. "They are as none and despite the fact that Mr. Wilson stated that he believed that a small committee was responsible for our contention, both lodges and (Continued on page 3)."
META'S MARRIAGE TO LOU TELLEGEN IS DISCREDITED
Late Star's Wife Was White and Not Washington Girl Says Kin Here
BULLETIN!
The Associated Negro Press dispatch to The Tribune yesterday stated, that Miss Meta Cardozo has been in Chicago since November 3 and that the Washington girl had nothing to do with the funeral of Lou Tellegen. Miss Cardozo has a brother who is an interne in Providence Hospital. Dr. Minter Edwards, an employee in Veterans Bureau here, is a former husband of Miss Cardozo. He stated that he knew nothing of the marriage of his former wife to the actor. .....
Lou Tellegen, white actor, married a white woman and not Meta Cardozo, Washington girl, according to a check-up by a Tribune reporter, this week.
Furthermore the first name of Telegen's wife was Eva, and not Meta as was rumored here over the last week-end. The picture of Telegen's fourth wife and widow appeared in an afternoon daily last Friday. When the photograph was shown Mrs. Warren Scott, 1708 T Street, a cousin of Miss Cardozo, she declared it was not the Washington girl.
With Follies
Miss Meta Cardozo who left Washington some years ago is a member of the Follies which is playing in Chicago.
Mrs. Scott stated that she has not seen her cousin for a few years, but the picture of Telegen's wife in the daily paper was most assuredly not Meta.
the theatrical editor of the paper which published the picture of Tellegen's wife declared that the star's wife was a white woman. The same thing was said by an officer of the International Photograph Service which made the picture.

Who was recently elected to the presidency of the Baptist Convention of the District of Columbia and Vicinity. The Rev. Mr. Grymes is pastor of Salem Baptist Church and is a well known religious leader.
REV. GRYMES IS ELECTED TO HEAD D. C. BAPTISTS
Sixth Annual Session is Held at Bethlehem Church During Week
The Rev. Richard Douglass Grymes for the past 17 years pastor of Salem Baptist Church was unanimously elected president of the Baptist Convention of the District of Columbia in its sixth annual session which convened in Bethlehem Baptist Church, Nichols Avenue, Southeast, recently. The Rev. Mr. Grymes has had a unique career as a minister and religious leader. He was born in King George County, Va., where he attended public schools. His father, the Rev. John H. Grymes, was one of the successful pastors of the county.
When the Rev. Mr. Grymes was 13 years of age he was converted and joined the Stephen's Baptist Church. Later he transferred his membership to the Mt. Moriah Baptist Church which his father had organized. It was by this church that he was ordained for the work in the ministry in 1917.

WILKINSON ASKS FOR NEW DEAL IN NEGRO EDUCATION
A New Deal in education for the Negro child was asked in a national radio address Wednesday afternoon by Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant of schools.
The address was in connection with Negro Education Week and was heard in Washington over Station WRC. The program lasted from 2:15 to 2:45 p.m. and was broadcast over the entire chain of the National Broadcasting Company's network.
G. C. Wilkinson
The address was in connection with Negro Education Week and was heard in Washington over Station WRC. The program lasted from 2:15 to 2:45 p.m. and was broadcast over the entire chain of the National Broadcasting Company's network. Mr. Wilkinson is president of the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools. Part of his address follows:
"The National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools is profoundly concerned about the problem of establishing equality of educational opportunity for every child in America 'regardless of race, creed, social position, residence, or physical condition.' "Equality of educational opportunity for the children of America is quite generally accepted in principle, but is very far fram realization in practice. Inequalities in educational opportunity are found between communities rich and poor, urban and rural, industrial and agrarian, North and South, East and West, alike.
"These inequalities as they effect the Negro youth are strikingly revealed in the findings of the National Conference on the Fundamental Problems in the Education of Negroes held at Washington, D.C., in May, 1934, under the auspices of the United States Office of Education. 'Approximately one million Negro children of school age are not in school; 220 counties in 1930 with no high school facilities at all for Negroes; lack of availability of Negro colleges doing a quality of work commensurate with the needs; calculated on the basis of equalization of educational opportunity, an additional 30,000 Negro public school teachers needed; are outstanding illustrations of the findings of the National Conference, which eloquently bespeak the need for a more abiding public concern for and interest in the educational welfare of the colored youth of America.
"Now, it is quite generally conceded that last spring's National Conference on the "Fundamental Problems in the Education of Negroes was the most significant and important single step taken by the public in the interest of the Negro in two generations. But, important and significant as this Conference was, its results will be inconsequential unless it meany friends of the Negro, and Negroes themselves, in the several sections of the Nation follow up the National Conference with a constructive program for the future practical and cultural training of Negro youth, consciously and definitely directed at the removal of existing inequalities in his educational opportunities."
Others on the program were Dr. George Foster Peabody, who spoke from Schenectady, N.Y., and Dr. Ambrose Caliver, senior specialist in the education of Negroes, U.S. Office of Education, Department of Interior, who acted as master of ceremonies. The Miner Teachers College Glee Club furnished music.

On Thursday, November 1, occurred the first quarterly conference of parents and teachers of Dunbar. On this night all of the teachers were in the various classrooms on one floor. From 7:30 until 9, parents and guardians of students enrolled in Dunbar conferred concerning the progress of the boys and girls. It is estimated that approximately 600 parents visited the school on November 1. Similar conferences occur at the end of each advisory period.
Seven years ago Dunbar experimented by inaugurating this method of establishing regular and adequate contacts between the home and the school. The large attendance and the noticeable improvement thereafter in scholarship have made this innovation a distinctive feature at Dunbar High School.

Citizenship Week at Garnet-Patterson was recognized through the presentation to the students of two serious but interesting programs.
At the junior assembly, Prof. J. Francis Gregory, of Miner Teachers College, delivered an address in which he clarified practical outlets for the practice of good citizenship in a child's home and school life. This assembly was held on Thursday, November 1. On Friday, November 2, Dr. Charles H. Wesley, of Howard University, addressed the senior assembly group on the internal and external aspects of citizenship in which he, too, specified practical outlets in the life of the students. These assemblies were organized under the leadership of Miss S. R. Quander, teacher of civics, who supported by the social science department. The first part of each program was conducted by the following students who delivered brief addresses no pertinent topics: Herbert Banks, Roseco Brown, Jr., Margaret Perner, Frances Gaines, and Clara Mansfield.
MARGARET WASHINGTON
The first meeting of the Parent-Teacher Association was held Tuesday. Each home room of the school was given a certain section of the assembly hall for the parents of the class members. These sections were designated by printed card board banners. Sections competed for the honor of having the largest number of parents present.
Opening remarks were made by Miss L. C. Randolph, principal. The minutes were read by Mrs. E. T. Mayer, the secretary, afterwhich the Girls' Choral Club sang two numbers. Mrs. B. B. Butcher talked on "The Health Clinic" as a part of the Character Education program.
Dr. Leo Holton spoke on "The Need of Dental Care." Before the election of officers, Miss Randolph told the parents of the work of the school. The Rev. A. A. Birch was elected president; Mrs. Hattie Thomas, vice-president; Mrs. E. T. Mayer, secretary and Mrs. L. J. Edwards, treasurer.
The following tests were given to the pupils in the school last week by the Research Department. "The Hearing Test for the Health Department." "The Public School Health Test." "Detroit Mechanical Antitudes Test." "Metropolitan Ad-

Knoxville College Hears Mme. Evanti in Recital
KNOXVILLE, Tenn.—An audience which Jammed McMillan Chapel of Knoxville College to the doors last Friday night was delighted with the operatic concert of Mme. Lillian Evanti, lyric coloratura soprano.
Mme. Evanti was presented under the joint auspices of the Knoxville College Artist-Lecture Course committee and the East Tennessee Association of Colored Teachers.
The opera numbers were beautifully handled by Mme Evanti, and she was ably assisted at the piano by William Allen of Howard University.
"Mme. Evanti displayed an excellent voice under great control," said Prof. Newell Colidge Fitzpatrick of Knoxville College after the concert. In all numbers she showed a wonderful sense of style and interpretation; and Mr. Allen's work was skillful in both his accompaniments and solos.

CITY-WIDE MUSIC PROJECT LAUNCHED IN D.C. SCHOOLS
Community Center Department to Cooperate with School Groups
The Community Center Department, in co-operation with the music department of the public schools, announces a city-wide setup which aims to develop better school and community orchestras, by increasing the appreciation of the value of music study in leisure time employment. The plan calls for the establishment of music classes in the various schools after school hours. These classes, which will be open to pupils from grades 4-12 inclusive, who have had no previous training, for pupils who have studied before and for adults, by special arrangement, will not, in any way, interfere with music courses during school time. Pupils are urged to study with private teachers as they progress.
The Community Center Department announces, also, the 1935-36 Recreation Institute to be held each Tuesday evening, beginning November 6, through February 5, from 8 to 10 p.m. Registration opens Tuesday, November 6. Among those secured as lecturers and demonstrators for the institute are John Burr, Howard University; Mrs. Adrienne Marshall Ryan, and Mrs. Mae Steward Thompson, of the physical education department of the public schools; Mrs. Lydia Miller, Benjamin Washington, and Clarence Brown. For further information about either of these projects call the Community Center Department, Franklin Building.

The bill is a varied one, beginning with Kreymborg's "Manikin and Minikin." O'Neill's "The Dreamy Kid", one of the best contemporary American one-act plays, will supply the serious part of the bill, while Christopher Marley's "Thursday Evening" will top off the evening. This last play is a hilarious comedy of young married life.

Bisons Battle Morgan Eleven to Scoreless Tie Before 3,500
Victory March of Blue and White Halted in Opening Period as Perkins Fumbles Pigskin After Taking Pass on Six-Yard Line
By ART CARTER
HOWARD STADIUM.—Flashing a sturdy defense and a powerful offense, the latter lacking only in its deceptive ability, Howard University's New Deal gridders fought a stubborn Morgan College eleven, C.I.A.A. champions for three years, to a scoreless tie here before nearly 3,500 followers of the gridiron, Saturday.
The clash, replete with thrills all the way and the most sensational strife waged in the stadium in many moons, found the Bisons in command most of the way, but the Blue and White cohorts had to battle furiously for every one of the seven first downs they annexed to the three for the Morganites. Out-classed in every department of play, the gallant Men of Hurt fought back with remarkable resistance, however, it was a trick of fate which prevented the Bisons from crossing their goal line.
Lady Luck came to the aid of the Bears late in the first period when Frank Perkins, whose long-distanced punting offset numerous Morgan advances, fumbled the pigskin four yards from the Morgan goal line. Anderson a moment before had tossed a 15-yard aerial into the arms of Perkins who caught the ball six yards from the line and started for a touchdown. In his flight, several Morgan tacklers hit him and the spheroid bounded from his hands and rolled into the end zone where Drake, Morgan guard, recovered it for a touchback. This act of Dame Fortune brought an abrupt halt to the Bisons' most serious threat.
A series of smashing line plays with Justin Plummer, battering ram of the Bison running attack and former Dunbar High School star, doing the bulk of the ball toting,—had advanced the oval from the Howard 32 to the shadow of the Bears' goal where Anderson, Bison field general opened up with an aerial attack. One heave to Perkins was good for 17 yards. The next toss, although completed, was wasted as Perkins' fumbled followed.
For three periods, Howard's effective defence checked the vaunted Morgan running attack and then, in the fourth quarter, as the Hurt-coached eleven unleashed all their gridiron wizardry featured by an amazing assortment of double and triple laterals, West's minions smeared every real Morgan threat. Four times in that furiously-fought session, Otis Troupe, fleetest of the Morgan backs, was tossed for sizable losses and twice Bison players intercepted Bear passes that loomed dangerously as they sailed through space. As it was the Bears got no further than the Bison 30-yard stripe in this period.
Faking a kick and running around the Bison right end for 38 yards, Trope started the only other Morgan threat in the second period. The quarterback's sensational dash placed the pigskin on Howard's 28-yard line. From this point, Simpson, high-knee action halfback, plunged to the Bison 11-yard stripe. On two attempted reverses, Troupe was thrown for a 16-yard loss. A pass, Troupe to Lampkins, recovered some of the distance and the half ended as Simpson plunged to Howard's six-yard line, the closest the Bears-yard to the Blue and White goal.
Howard menaced the Morganites' sacred territory on several occasions after that opening period. Midway the second quarter, Jakes pounced on a Morgan fumble on the 1933 champions' 39-yard line. With Plummer and Anderson alternately carrying the pigskin, the Bisons ploughed to the 19-yard stripe where the drive ended as Anderson was tackled behind the scrimmage line on a fake pass.
In the third period, Perkins recovered Simpson's fumble of Troupe's lateral for Howard on the Morgan 32-yard mark. Perkins, Plummer and Anderson in seven tries to through the Morgan line for repeated gains until the pigskin was placed on the four-yard stripe. Here the Bear forward wall checked the advance by holding for downs. Troupe's toe put them out of immediate danger. Again, in the fourth quarter, Hart's interception of Troupe's aerial on the Morgan 14-yard thrust the Bisons within the shadow of the Bear goal line, but the timer's whistle ended hostilities before Howard could get started.

TEACHERS'COLLEGE ELEVEN DEFEATS LIVINGSTONE
Harold Martin's Miner Lads Trim Bears on Salisbury Gridiron
SALISBURY, N.C.—The Miner Teachers' College football team invaded the South Saturday and crushed the Livingstone College outfit by 32 to 0. Holding the Carolinians safely away from the goal, the Teachers penetrated their opponents' defense almost at will, scoring two touchdowns in the first, and one in each succeeding quarter.
David Brown, star Miner half-back, was removed from the game during the first quarter as the result of a fracture to his right leg. Brown, carrying the ball for Miner, had made a gain of fifteen yards before he was tackled by two Livingstone players.
Baffling the Carolinians with double-reverse plays, the Teachers accounted for nineteen points in the first half of game. Forsythe began the scoring with two touchdowns in the first quarter, one on an off-tackle play, and another following Miner's recovery of a fumbled ball.
Livingstone fumbled the ball again in the second quarter and gave Miner its third chance to score.
Franklin scored this time, following a series of end-runs by Tignor and Forsythe.
A series of passes in the next quarter put the teachers again in position to score, and Tignor crossed the goal for Miner's fourth touchdown.
Livingstone rallied ineffectively in the final quarter, trying to put over a score against their visitors. Two complete passes put them near the Teachers' goal, but the next was intercepted and Miner ran the ball down the field for another shot, this time by Wiggins.

The running of the Riggs Handicap, perhaps the most attractive of fall purses, is expected to draw the largest crowd of the current Maryland racing season to the Pimlico Race Track, Saturday, according to announcements made by M. L. Daiger (white) secretary of the Maryland Jockey Club, early this week.
The Riggs, a $7,500, added, event, which mean close to if not in excess of $10,000 to the winner, annually, draws the cream of the crop of thoroughbreds in training. A glance at the list of nominees will show that none of the principal stables have failed to disclose their intention trying to cop the stake.
Although there will hardly be more than 15 horses of the following list to go to the post, any or all have been nominated and their weights assigned:

Annual Battle With Howard to Feature Homecoming Day at Armstrong Field; Bisons Favorites for First Time in Years

HAMPTON INSTITUTE.—Every effort is being put forth to make Saturday's home-coming game with Howard University the greatest classic ever staged on Armstrong Field. An air of anxiety pervades the entire Hampton campus. Pep meetings, bonfires, and other spirit-rousing demonstrations are being carried on daily, and students are conscious that they will have a big share in creating one of the biggest spectacles witnessed anywhere this season. The Hampton regiment, headed by the famous 65-piece band, will be at its best to lend color to the occasion.
Little needs to be said about what the game will be like. Howard-Hampton clashes have always been colorful. Particularly noticeable has been the fact that there always exists a splendid spirit of sportsmanship on the part of the players. For the first time in a number of years Howard has built up a team that seems to have every chance of beating Hampton. Their ties with Moggan and Virginia State rate them a few notches higher than the Pirates, so the
bettors will favor the Bisons. But the Hampton aggregation is not to be taken lightly. Now that Gid Smith has finally built up a line, the team, already possessing a wealth of good backs, is sure to be troublesome in all their games now on. Many a team has been favored to defeat Hampton but has come out on the losing end. Anybody whose heart cannot stand excitement should stay away from

Four colored boys, C. Reid, C. Jackson, W. Holland and W. Smiley, are monz the jockeys doing business on Maryland tracks at present. This is the largest number of Negro riders to show at the same time on nearby ovals in the past several years. Reid, though still an apprentice, compares favorably with the boys of the other group.
The Pimlico Handicap, a $2,500, added stake event for two-year-olds will be run Monday as part of the Armistice Day card. In all probability patrons will be afforded the opportunity of seeing the greatest portion of prospective Derby entrants in action in The Pimlico.
Although the list of candidates is not at hand, your writer is expecting a choice field to go to the post. The current season has a wealth of two-year-old material, and I dare say few of the old-timers will dispute me when I state this year's crop is one of the best-filled to come postward in many a year.
How's this: Black Helen, Nellie Flag, Toolbox, Little Dinah, Go Quick, Sailor Beware, Gillie, Billie Bee, Galomar, Peradventure, Mepluck and Aperitif. Bird Flower, Firethorn, Beyond Doubt, Satrapal, Blood Root, Palma and Diablessse.

Now that Gid Smith has finally built up a line, the team, already possessing a wealth of good backs, is sure to be troublesome in all their games from now on. Many a team has been favored to defeat Hampton but has come out on the losing end. Anybody whose heart cannot stand excitement should stay away from this game, because the sixty minutes of play will produce many a thrill for the spectators.
Hampton and Howard have met nine times, Hampton taking six games and losing three. The biggest score was piled up in 1921, incidentally Gid Smith's first year as coach at Hampton, when Howard won 34-0. Last year the Pirates invaded Washington and came home with a 28-0 victory. Since Howard's return to the CIAA Hampton has won all the games played between the two schools.
A complete record of the games follows:
1921—Hampton 0; Howard 34

Three Washington Boys on Harrisburgh Giants "5"
HARRISBURG, Pa. — The Harrisburgh Giants basketball team of this city, the leading colored team of the state, have been practicing at the Y. M. C. A. here, and among the players that will be seen in the line-up are: Dick Felton, Charles Wilson, Alfred Banks, Slim Thomas, Everett Jefferies, and George Adams. The latter trio are well known for their play on courts of the Capital City. Any teams desiring to play the Giants at home or away, write Otto Briggs, booking agent, Care of the Philadelphia Tribune, 526 S 16th Street, Philadelphia, Pa.
ed according to his Negro trainer, M. W. Smith.
Pimlico is fortunate in its choice of dates, which run from October 31 to November 14, inclusive, as within this period of thirteen racing days are two Saturday half-holidays, Election Day and Armistice Day, while competition with other trucks in the East is almost negligible. This means that the best horses, and most prominent stables, will take part in the meeting, and horse-lovers from all over the country will be in attendance.

At the regular scheduled roll off of the eight teams forming the Capital City Bowling League, this week, keen competition between all of the teams was shown and enthuisasm ran high when in two of the games one and two pins respectively decided the winners.

Showing one of the best ground-gaining attacks sported by a Dunbar High School team in several years, the Crimson and Black Poet eleven scored a surprise 18-0 victory over a much-favored Douglass grid machine at the Walker Stadium last Friday afternoon. An unusually large crowd watched as the locals counted 3 touchdowns but were unable to convert the extra points. Blondy Gordon, sophomore half-back of the First Streeters started the winners on their road to victory. The fleet Southeast youngster took one of Wilson's punts on his own 35-yard line and raced through a broken field to the initial score. The 65-yard jaunt occurred in the opening minutes of the third quarter. Both teams had battled pretty much on a par throughout the first half.
Fenwick Scores
Not long after Gordon had counted, Bob Fenwick, big Poet end, rushed a would-be Douglass passer and took the oval just as it had been flipped from the thrower's finger-tips. With no one to molest him,Fenwick ran 45 yards to the goal line.
The final Dunbar score came as the result of a neatly executed end run with Ford, a substitute back, carrying the ball. Receiving it on the Douglass 25-yard strip, Ford advanced it to the 1-yard ribbon before being stopped. From that point, Monroe, another substitute, went over.
The final gun sounded shortly after the ensuing kick-off.

PRINCESS ANNE, Md.—With an offense that gained at will outside of her opponent's 20-yard stripe, but which frequently stalled once this mark was passed, Dowingtown Industrial School scored a hard-fought 19-0 triumph over the Princess Anne Academy eleven, here Saturday.
With Coach Jack Young bending every effort toward bringing his team around to its best shape, the Cardozo High School football team makes ready to do battle with the highly favored Dunbar High School gridders at the Walker Stadium, Monday. The contest will be the only clash of the numerous Armistice Day grid feuds spread over the country and the east.
Charlie Pinderhughes, pilot of the Crimson and Black ship, is by no means holding the Rhode Island Avenue lads lightly. Although the Poets romped over the much favored Douglass High (Baltimore) eleven. Friday afternoon, the Dunbar mentor has been working diligently ironing out the wrinkles in what appeared to the casual spectator to be a smooth attack. Pinderhughes when asked for a statement to the Tribune refused to comment on his team's chances in the coming City Championship series.
Coaches Quiet
His only remark was, "Of course, you know I am elated over defeating Douglass but Cardozo and Armstrong have yet to be played." Young was also found to be quite reticent.
"The loss of many of my key men of last year's team compelled me to reconstruct my whole offensive system, and as a consequence my boys have been slow reaching their peak. I have the utmost confidence, however, that our boys will be in there fighting every minute." Dunbar, in addition to her effort to capture the local series, will be fighting to keep her South Atlantic High School Athletic Conference slate clean.

Virginia State, Union in Bitter 0.0 Struggle in Homecoming
Both Teams Have Opportunities to Break Deadlock But Stubbornness of Opponent Proves to be Too Much; Pass Interception Helps
By Spot Robinson
RICHMOND, Va.—The Virginia
State Troops fought the powerful
Union eleven to a scoreless tie in
the latter's homecoming game at
Hovey Field, here last Saturday.
The favorites to cop the C.I.A.A.
championship were played off their
feet for three quarters, coming to
life only as the end of the game
new near. State, tired but still
game, held the Panthers at two
coucil moments in the last quarter
and fought back viciously until the
um.
Both teams had breaks to score, giving first downs within the opponents' goal line. Union kicked and Jeter ran it back to his own 1-yard line. After trvying the mon line twice without a gain, saves dropped back to punt. Coleburn and a couple of linemen sifted rough to block the kick and Jenns recovered the ball for Union State's 9-yard line. Coleburn inged three times to State's 1-ard line, then fumbled on fourth down as he was hit, the ball going over to State about two feet from the goal line. Graves punted out danger.
Panthers Have Scoring Chance
Union came back a few moments later as Jones passed to Wintree in the State 20-yard line, but the anthers were unable to gain and Poole punted outside on the 22-ard line. State was about to gainly 5 yards in 3 tries and Graves int a magnificent punt down to the union eleven yard line where it was wicked. An exchange of punts allowed and both teams played only until a host of State players ended on Parker's fumble on the union 41-yard line just before the quarter ended. State started driving with Perkins and Jeter doing tooting but two penalties forced Trojans to resort to the air and the Union intercepted Graves's pass on the Union 29-yard line and pulled the Panthers out of the hole. State succeeded in getting the inside Union's 20-yard line again before the third quarter ended it the Panthers' line held for little or no gain on each occasion.

When Drake, Morgan right guard, fell on Perkins's fumble behind the goal line during the first quarter of the Bison-Bear stalemate, Saturday, many fans and several of the boys in the press box believed Howard had scored a safety but by the National Collegiate Athletic Association football rules it was only a touchback...Rule Nine, Section 6, Article 1 can be consulted for those who doubted the decision...the scoreless tie was third of the season for the Morganites and the second for the Bisons, the former having previously deadlocked with Union and Bluefield and the latter being unable to score on Virginia State several weeks back.
George Godfrey, once great heavyweight mittman, has gone to France and will probably be heard of in Paris fights soon...Young Peter Jackson is rated as the greatest Negro fighter since the heyday of the famed Joe Gans...he has seen his last nine fights by knockouts...the Willowtree grid team will play an inter-city game with the Baltimore Royals at Griffith Stadium, Decem-9...a move is on to have the Cardozo Clerks battle the old grads in a post-season Alumni game...Runt White, former Wilberforce University quarterback, has joined the rapidly swelling Teddy Bear ranks...La Verte Armstrong and Justin Plummer, who are going great guns for Howard this year, are both former Dunbar High stalwarts.
Howard looms as an easy victor over Hampton, Saturday, by comparative records of this year but read the following...
Hampton and Howard have met nine times, Hampton taking six of the games and Howard taking three. The biggest score was piled up in 1921, incidentally Gid Smith's first year as coach at Hampton, when Howard won 34-0. Last year the Pirates invaded Washington and went home with a 28-0 victory. Since Howard's return to the C.I.A.A. Hampton has won all the games played between the two schools

"HAPPY" WALTERS
I have always taken a keen interest in the various teams of the local high schools and during the last five or six years have seen some of the lads, develop into exceptional slot-makers: Robert Alexander and Frances White from Durbar, Everett Payne and Emmet Stiener from Armstrong, are notable examples: Of course, there are several more whom I am unable to name at present, but are deserving of honorable mention.
I do not class these fellows by their scores executed at the local course, but by their playing of various shots, as one would play them on a regular course. I'd like to see these boys stick to the game if interested, for chances are, their scholastic work may present an opportunity whereby they may excel in this branch of sport.
One of my readers wrote to me a few days ago, asking from whence the game of golf originated. Well, dear reader, from most authentic data, Scotland seems to have been the motherland. Some opinions are much divided, with Ireland the basis of their contention. But in my humble estimation the hope of a solution, lies between these two countries with Scotland having a slight edge with its many native sons holding down professional berths on an average of five to one of any other race.

The events will be conducted on a total points basis. The center winning the greatest number of points will receive a beautiful trophy. All persons who wish to compete in the tourney will be required to compete in the local contests held at the various centers throughout the city.

LINCOLN DEFEATED 13-0 BY AGGIES
Pree, Former Dunbar High Star is Spearhead of Attack Which Scares A &T
GREENSBORO, N.C.—Before a large home coming day crowd the mighty 1934 edition of Aggie Bulldogs satisfied a blood thirsty alum by defeating the Lincoln Lions in a thrilling game 13 to 0, here Saturday.
The Aggies scored one in the second and again in the fourth quarter, each tally coming as a result of a pass. Norman, Aggie quarterback's passes fell true just at the time that they were most needed. After a scoreless first quarter the Aggie offense got under way in the latter part of the second. Coleman, Lincoln back, punted to the Aggie 20 and on the first play, Graham, hard hitting Aggie fullback made a run of 44 yards thrill the center of the Lincoln line. On the next play Norman passed 27 yards to Burgess, left end who ran 9 yards for the first touchdown. The try for extra point was blocked by Bercan, Lincoln center.
Although the Lions trailed throughout the game Martin Pree, Lincoln's quarterback, kept them at their running game, and this running attack came near sealing the Aggies' doom in the fourth quarter. Beginning a drive in midfield they pushed to the A. and T. two-yard line. Coach Breaux made substitutions and the Aggie captain called time out, but it seemed as if the boys from above the Mason and Dixon must score. However, the Aggie line proved its true mettle by holding the Lions for four downs on the two-yard stripe.

TREES MAINTAIN PACE; DEFEAT GEORGETOWN
Favorites to Win City Title Score Handy Win Over West-end Crew
About as convincing a lacing as vet turned up in the annual Willow Tree-Georgetown football relationship was handed to the west-enders, Sunday, when the Trees put across a 26-0 victory while nearly 5,000 persons looked on.
Although the score was comparatively large, it might have been still greater for the South-westerners were halted on the Georgetown 10-yard mark shortly after they had pushed over the initial touchdown. And again in the second period, the eventual winners penetrated the Georgetown zone as far as the 2-yard line only to be halted by the whistle ending the half.
However, the leaders of the D.C. Sandlot, Semi-nro League did not need these tallies as one touchdown garnered by Pierson in the opening quarter was sufficient. Georgetown could get no closer than a point 33 yards from the Southwest lads' goal line at any time during the fracas.
Morehouse Uses "Break' to Defeat Ala. State
MONTGOMERY, Ala.—In a surprising upset, a poorly-functioning Alabama State Hornet aggregation donated the lowly Morehouse College Tigers their first 1934 victory by a count of 6-0 in a listless game here at Cramton Bowl, last Friday night.
Morehouse, playing a strictly defensive game, capitalized on the capable punting of Scott and waited for their lone break which came in the third period when Drake, Hornet, center, made a wild pass that rolled to the Alabama 12yard line where it was recovered by Morehouse. Pitting all their power into this one moment, the Morehouse Tiger hit hard and enabled Scott to go over with the winning tally.

Former Howard Coach's New Charges Defeat Allen
COLUMBIA, S.C.-The South Carolina State Negro fair college football classic is history. Coach Bill Bell, former Ohio State and ex-coach at Howard University, saw his Red Demons carry out his orders and romp over the Allen Yellowjackets here in the new municipal stadium to win a hard fought contest, 12 to 0. Poor kicking versus good kicking was largely responsible for the results of the game. Mobley's kicking for Claflin were good for long distances and well placed while Lennoir for Allen usually had trouble in getting his kicks out of defensive territory.
The bringing back of kicks, generalship and all-around play of Quarterback Mobley and the pile driving line plunging of Fullback Willis, two finds from Ohio that came to Claflin for Coach Bell, the long distance end run gains by Brewton, veteran Claflin back, were stintillating features for the Claflin eleven.

Jimmie Lunceford and his band, one of the country's most famous and versatile dance orchestras, has been scheduled for an appearance at Yale University November 23, at New Haven, Conn. This is regarded as one of the highlights of the season. Lunceford's aggregation is the biggest colored attraction now broadcasting over the C.B.S. chain.
At the Roseland Ballroom in New York City, Lunceford drew record crowds. On November 9, he is scheduled for an appearance at the Harlem Opera House, New York, at the biggest price paid any dance attraction.

The Southernaires, radio's loveable quartet, will appear in New York at Orchestra Hall for a concert to raise funds for Wilherforce University. R. R. Wright, president of the University has arranged plans. Clarence Jones will accompany them.
First Nighters acclaimed Hall Johnson's "Run Little Chillun" when it opened at the Harris Theatre last week and much praise of the daily critics went to Ben Guy Phillips, the producer. Standing out over others in special mentions are Katherine Dunham's Ballet, William Henry Smith's Choir and Marion Kay, leader of the singing, who as one critic says, "has a voice which sounds like both a tenor and a baritone."
Eugene Stinson of the News said: "The Negro is at his best in acting when he is not an actor. Or, to put it better, the Negro has a peculiar handicap in his progress to professionalism as an artist, because every Negro is an artist by nature and in his private life."

The singers will not be heard over the N.B.C. network until after they complete their tour.
They are scheduled to return to the N.B.C. network February 7 on a new program with Phil Baker and Floyd Gibbons in the now famous Armour Program.

In every field of endeavor, and in every generation there are but a few names that gain national prominence as the creators of vogues and trends which dominates a country. In the world of dance music, Chick Webb is reclaimed one of the outstanding ultra-modern rhythm stylists. Original of a definite brand of syncopation, characterized by a swing rhythm, his individualistic style is aped and copied by other band leaders throughout the country.
Although Chick has been playing dance music for more years than to remember, it is only recently that he has entered the 'birr class'. Right now he is riding high on the crest of a national wave. He broadcasts almost daily on the National Broadcasting Company's coast-to-coast network. In addition his nightly programs are heard on the new American Broadcasting System chain.
Despite her avoirdupois, Kate Smith is an aquatic whiz. She swims all strokes speedily, dives from high boards, aqua-pictures and holds several life-saving awards.
Claude Hopkins and his band are back on WABC-CBS and the air is warmer, even if the thermometer is down.

"Jane Eyre"
Gigantically produced with a cast of favorites, including Claudette Colbert as "Cleopatra," Warren Williams as "Julius Caesar," Henry Wilcoxon as "Marc Anthony," and 8,000 others, "Cleopatra" has massive surfaces that cover 400,000 square feet; 75 tons of armor are worn by the Roman gladiators. Renowned for his bath-tub scenes, DeMille has built for "Cleopatra" a gorgeous Roman bath where 100 Roman ladies and gentlemen bathe. Another spectacular scene in the picture is an exotic Love Boat over 500 feet long. A year in the making, "Cleopatra" which will play at the Lincoln Theatre for one week only beginning Friday, will live long in your memory.
-:-Howard-:-
What Manager Shop-Allen describe as a potential "Battle of Music" will be the feature attraction at the Howard Theatre beginning tomorrow (Friday). Two bands both ranking organizations in the colored and white groups, will occupy the Seventh and T Streets stage, and will afford patrons the opportunity of making their own selection as to the type of tunemaking they like best.
Al Jenkins, referred to by race critics as the sepia Guy Lombardo, and Victor Lopez are the outfits that have been signed for the coming seven-day. The latter comes from the west with some of the trickiest methods used by employed by orchestras on the Howard stage. Jenkins' band is accepted as a topnotcher among Negro musical groups and promises to hold its own in the Howard show.
A whirlwind revue has also been carded by the dapper Howard manager, and all in all there seems a promise of unmatched entertainment.
Presented on the screen after two years, Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell are in a story big enough for their reunion, "Change of Heart."

::-Booker T.::
Charlotte Bronte's famous novel "Jane Eyre" will be the attraction at the Booker T. Theatre for the week of Friday, November 9.
Preserving the full, rich flavor of the popular story, "Jane Eyre" is the engrossing tale of a little orphan girl who finds happiness upon growing to young womanhood, when she obtains a position as governess in a wealthy home. Charlotte Bronte, the authoress, wrote, that all might read, the most intimate experiences of her life . . . a soul-revelation that has thrilled humanity for a century. It is a story that gives a dramatic answer to the age-old question—the right of every girl to happiness.
Virginia Bruce, back in pictures after an absence of two years, and Colin Clive have the most outstanding roles. Others in the cast are Aileen Pringle, Jameson Thomas, David Torrence, Beryl Mercer and Lionel Barrymore.

Claude Rains, star of the "Invisible Man" takes his mask off for the first time in any picture in "Crime Without Passion" which will be shown at the Republic Theatre for four days beginning Friday.
"Crime Without Passion" is the harrowing tale of a brilliant intellect which new conquests turned into a torrent of frightful emotions—proving the old adage that crime does not pay. A masterpiece of acting is given by Claude Rains, star of the "Invisible Man." George O'Brien in Zane Grey's "The Dude Ranger," will be the attraction at the Republic on Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday. Author Zane Grey has saved his biggest thrills for this gripping drama of a dude who went West to avenge his beloved girl and found himself in conflict with a murderous mob.

| Picketing |
Is Halted ji Harlem Where
Citizens Demand the
Hiring of Negroes
|, NEW YORK CITY — (CNS)—
Justice Samuel I Roseman in the
‘Supreme Court has enjoined ten
representatives of a Harlem or-
ganization from picketing the
store of A. S. Beck Shoe Corpora-
tion, 264 West 125th Street, in an
attempt to compel the employment
of Negro clerks as a part of the
staff.
_ It is the first case of race -pie-
‘keting to be decided by a New York
Court, but in: some ways follows
‘a case recently decided in a Dis-
trict of Columbia case.
Justice Roseman disregarded
decision in » somewhat similar cake
in Baltimore last May in which
race picketing was held to be x
conspiracy, The Court, in_ its o-
pinion, said. every such incident
would have to be determined upon
its own merits and held that if it
permitted picketing to continue it
would imply authority to picket-
ing of Negro organizations by
white persons with race rioting in-
evitable, i
“The controversy here is not a
labor dispute, Justice Roseman
‘said. “The defendants do not con-
stitute a labor organization of any
kind. They do not compose, nor are
they all members of any single
trade or class of trades, Their de-
mands are not connected with any
one industry. ‘The questions about
which they are now picketing have
no connection with wages, hours,
unionization or betterment of work-
ing conditions.
“Tt is solely a racial dispute, It
is born of an understanding desire
on the part of some of the Negroes
in this community that the stores
in their neighborhood where they
spend their money should employ
a percentage of Negro help, Their
exclusive concern is that a certain
number of. white persons. be dis-
charged in order to make place
for members of their own race.”
A protest has been filed with
Justice Roseman by the N. A. A.
©. P. on the ground that he had
enjoined the picketing ‘solely be-
cause -it was. “a racial. dispute.”
‘The ‘Association. retorted “that : the
court had ruled that Negroes: must
not: picket simply because they
were Negroes. The idecision, it
said, would establish “a dangerous
precedent” which would affect
other minority groups”. such as
Jews, Catholics, and others,

tition it is avered that Mr. and
Mrs. Bolden went to Mr. DeVeile
on Septembdes 26, -and- requested a
loan of $25. He had them sign
“certain. papers” the bill further
avers, and told them to return the
following morning for the money.

SOUTHERN AID SOCIETY, through its unvarying and superior service to its
policyholders and the public, has won the admiration of thousands. The
‘challenging testimonial from the pen of the distinguished Rev. E. C. Smith,
pastor of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, Washington, D. C., is based on his
personal knowledge and observation of this Company in paying claims to its
policyholders ‘during periods of disability, and to claimants’ following their
death,-and in opening hundreds of avenues to young men and women for dig-
nified and profitable employment.

“In the forest of Negro business there is still a tall tree towering above all the
rest—labelled the Southern Aid Society of Virginia, Inc. The trunk of this gigan-
tie tree is securely planted in Richmond, Va., and its branches spread to large cities
like Washington, Norfolk, Roanoke, Lynchburg, Danville, and Petersburg, while its
_leaves fallin countless numbers ¢f villages and towns as well as thousands of homes
* that ciiliven the country side.
~ “I have known the work of -the’Southern Aid Society for more than fifteen
- year's and recommend it to be one of the best insurance companies operating any-
where in America. It should receive the support of every race-loving American
Negro.” ; bie :
Bec . * (Signed) Rev. E. C. SMITH.
Another striking évidence of the unshaken confidence of the Policyholders
of the Company in its integrity is the fact that by their prompt cooperation
with the fieldmen this Company is writing more new business than it did last
yeat, and its debit has a net advance standing. In the insurance world a
Company possessing the three catdinal virtues of absolute soundness’ an in-
creasing business, and a high standard of protection and service to its
policyholders is considered as sterling. In these particulars the Southern
Aid Society has heen tested for over Forty-two years and has been found like
the Rock of Gibraltar. Therefore every race person, within the territory
covered by this Company should be the proud possessor of one of its superior
Health and Accident Policies, or one of its numerous modern types of Life
Insurance policies. Our representatives will be pleased to exhibit and ex-
plain the liberal policies and rates offered by this company.

Insurance Managers Install
New Officers
The Insurance Managers’ Asso-
ciation of the District of Columbia
held its. weekly meeting Tuesday
at the Whitelaw Hotel, at which
time the newly elected officers. for
the ensuing year were installed.
The new-officers are G. Norman
Branche, president; Charles Fear-
ing, vice president; and L. W.
Thornton, secretary-treasurer.
C. L., ‘Townes, vice-president
and general manager of the -Vir-
ginia Mutual Life Insurance Com-
pany of Richmond, Va., was guest
speaker at the meeting.
The association is composed of
the following companies: The
North Carolina Mutual, the Vie-
tory Mutual, the Southern Aid
Beneficial, the Supreme Liberty
Society of Virginia, the Richmond
Life, and the Federal Life.

the entire membership are in ac-
cord on this principle.”
Jones was at one time one of the
closest associates of Wilson and
the former is at a loss to account
for the sudden. change in the Elks
chieftain, it was said,
Cortez’ ‘Peters has ‘refused the
genéial seerétary from’ Wilson’ and
and John Ritines, the-general treas-
usership. Both stated they will
support their lodges. All of the
leaders and members wanted it
understood ‘that there was no ani-
mosity against Dr. Fisher or Wil-
ron,
Denies Agreement
general secretaryship from Wilson
Jones also denied knowing of an
agreement reached at Atlantic
City last summer whereby the two
exalted rulers: of Columbia and
Morning Star Lodges had agreed
to accept the selection of Wilson
for the general chairmanship, It
is also pointed out that Wilson can-
not. move the grand. lodge before
90 days prior to its meeting, Then
the. trustees will have to. come here
and make the final decision,
Wilson has the proxies of all of
the trustees giving him full power
to act in the matter.
Cornish denied that Article 6,
Section 1, gives: the grand exalted
ruler the power to appoint all eom-
mittees when the grand lodge is
not .in session. “This is not a
grand lodge committee,” said Corn-
ish, “It's . local committee,” he
said,
Wilson Stands Pat
The following committee headed
bys Herbert Jones was elected by
Columbia Lodge as the Convention
Committee: James F. Chapman,
Douglass Dyson, Clarence. Akers,
David Lawry, ‘John Highsmith,
Herman. Fields, William H. Davis,
Elmer Kyler, Howard Scott and C.
A; Cornish.
When the grand exalted ruler
was. told of the action they took
in endorsing Jones, the Elk leader
declared that he is standing pat.
He also intimated that he will is-
sue a proclamation within a few
days calling off the convention
here. “When they find out what
it’s all about they will come
around,” Wilson said Wednesday
morning. :
Wilson claims the law gives him
the power to select the general
chairman and committee. The
lodges deny this and point out that
they are’the hosts and have the
right.
: Wilson Fears Job
Behind the séenes.of the whole
affair it is secretly said that the
Washington order had planned to
oust Wilson at the next convention.
and the selection of a general chair-
man and committee would give
them power to do this. Witho:
this they would be helpless and the
power would be in the hands of
the one controlling the committee.
Wilson admitted that he would
be foolish to let the lodges name
the chairman as he would be help-
less in putting over a program if
the committee did not care to co-
operate. It is also rumored that
the lodges are determined to carry
the fight through and if necessary
the whole matter will be carried
to court which no doubt would
bring a split in the order. Several
high Elk leaders here declare that
Wilson hasn’t the power to change
the meeting place and he will be
challenged on this point if he at-
tempts to carry out his threat.

WEEK ENDING NOV. 10. 1934
DISTRICT NEEDS A HEALTH OFFICER
In pointing out what constitutes a good health officer the Health and Hospital Council of the District of Columbia inadvertently states many things which are lacking in the present head of the Health Department. Dr. William Fowler, present head of the department, reaches the retirement age this month. He has served for a number of years and his usefulness is at an end.
The Feleration of Civic Associations recently endorsed Dr. Walter A. Bloedorn to succeed Dr. Fowler. The federation should carefully consider a prospective candidate because when once appointed the health officer is invariably in office for life, and regardless of how inefficient he is, it's a hard job to have him removed. The most one can do is to protest.
For the edification of the members of the federation and other interested citizens here are some of the qualifications of a health officer set forth by Ross Garrett, coordinator of the Health and Hospital Council:
The Health Officer to be chosen must not excuse the disgraceful number of tuberculosis cases in Washington by waving his hand toward the high percentage of colored population. Our neighboring city of Baltimore has a high percentage of colored population and the hazards of an industrial population combined and still maintains no such a disgraceful record as in Washington. It is also true that because of the high percentage of colored population in Washington, even more diligence and efficiency must be maintained because we depend upon many of that same portion of our population to help care for our children and to help perform the other domestic services which we have learned to depend upon from them.
We must have a Health Officer who will not explain away facts but who will eliminate these facts. The Health Officer should be a man willing and capable of cooperating with the school authorities and also all existing private health agencies which are supported by private and donated funds. He should be a man capable and willing to cooperate with all other interested parties to effect a complete coordination of all existing resources so that each tax dollar may be squeezed and drained to obtain every possible maximum benefit in protecting the health of the community.
Our present health status has not been reached over night but is the direct result of lack of coordination and cooperation to the extent that maximum efficiency may be derived at least expense and through expert planning. The appointed Health Officer should be a man trained and experienced, with a record of success in accomplishing these same things, and avoid blundering, even though well intentioned policies, Washington has a wealth of resources with many supporters outside the realm of taxation, glad and willing to cooperate and further the interests of the health of the community. The appointed Health Officer should know how to use these resources in the conduct of his office. It will be found that the Medical and Dental Professions, the Hospitals and the Community Chest supported Health Organizations will be willing to help in every way if they but have a Health Officer who is willing to cooperate with them in protecting the health of the community.
THAT LYNCHING AFFAIR
Elsewhere on this page there is published under the heading "Daily Press Scores Recent Florida Lynch Orgy" clippings of editorials from eight daily papers which deal with the recent Alabama-Flordia lynching of Claude Neal. It is worthy to note the attitude that the nation's press took of this ghastly affair. No one condones Neal's offence—if he was guilty—but for the city, the state, the nation, and especially the administration to let this matter drop—we wonder at "What is Americanism?" The press of the North was not any more vehement than was the press of the South. The two first quoted excerpts in the article are samples of what the better-minded people of the South think.
Lynching by ignorant whites will never stop rapes or other crimes committed by ignorant blacks. The Negro as a whole suffers by the crimes of its ignorant—and well may America learn that other nations condemn the whole people for dastardly crimes committed by its ignorant whites.
The man who does his work as well as it can be done will hold his job longef than the other fellow.
Contentment may come of ignorance.
Those who uphold the New Deal purely from partizan motive do so unworthily. On the other hand those who antagonize it for political advantage do so ignominiously.
By the time this release sees the light of print, the Election will be over. Roosevelt and the New Deal will have won, either by an impressive majority which will strengthen determination to press forward with new vigor, or by reduced margin which will give aid and encouragement to the reactionaries. There does not, at this time, seem to be doubt in any one's mind that Roosevelt will win. The Republican chiefs neither calculate nor expect to win. They would indeed be greatly embarrassed if some unexpected landslide should bring victory to their side. But why speculate in advance? The patience of a few days will reveal the outcome. I am an avowed apostle of the New Deal, and am billed to make an address on November the first at Harrisburg, Pa., to the colored voters of middle Pennsylvania. Whatever the outcome of the election will not make any change in me. In my view, it is the patriotic duty of right thinking, unselfish Americans to fall in line behind Franklin D. Roosevelt and sustain his courageous endeavor to save the nation from threatened peril. Those die-hard partizans who take delight in bedeviling his efforts in such a crisis as this have their own shoulf reward.
Those who voted for Mr. Hoover in 1932 may well congratulate themselves that their cause was lost. Had Mr. Hoover won, we may easily see what would have been some of the unfortunate consequences. Now I am ardent prohibitionist. The fight was squarely lost. In his speech of acceptance Mr. Roosevelt declared that "from this day, prohibition is doomed;" and it was doomed. Had Mr. Hoover been elected with his vacillating dalliance between wet and dry, the troublesome issue might still be hanging over the nation until the majority of indignant voters deluged the nation in a flood of illegal wetness. Clearing away of the prohibition issue was the first step in the New Deal. This is easily understandable whether we like it or no.
ROOSEVELT'S RUSSIAN MOVE COMMENDABLE
Mr. Roosevelt has recognized Russia and thus settled a vexed international issue and opened up vast possibilities of international trade. Mr. Hoover had set his face as flint against such recognition without which we would now be at a decided disadvantage in the game on international politics as well as shut out from the trade advantage with our most fertile and promising foreign market.
Mr. Hoover left office with thirteen million able bodied Americans out of employment, with no hope in sight. He stubbornly refused to give direct federal aid to the individual needy. When starving men, women and children asked for bread, he would give them a theory of government. What can you imagine would have been the fate of these unfortunate millions had this fatuous policy been persisted in? It is here that the Negro American is most keenly concerned. The brunt of unemployment falls upon him. Fully one-third of the race, especially in our large cities, are now on federal relief, which alone saves them from starvation. It is perfectly idle to quibble about the unbalanced budget and the heavy public debt imposed upon future generations. Which is the better, to so starve and pinch the present generation that its physical and moral stamina will transmit to the future enfeebled physical and moral strength, or to anticipate the necessary taxation and thus transmit to the future an inheritance which will enable it to meet the heavy indebtedness? It is needless to try to set forth the general plight of the nation had Mr. Hoover instead of Mr. Roosevelt triumphed at the polls, two years ago.
GLOOMY OUTLOOK IF—
By parity of reasoning, let us suppose that the opponents of the New Deal had won in last Tuesday's election. The outlook for the nation would be gloomy indeed. A split government in times of emergency is a calamity in itself. The Republican Party in its disorganized shape has no human hope of winning. But should some unexpected tidal wave sweep the G.O.P. into power in the House of Representatives we should have the majority party without a policy or program which would spend itself in harrassing the progressive plans of the Administration. It were better for both parties and far better for the country to put full power in the hands of the administration and hold it responsible for results.
Indeed our political affairs have reached such a pass that party lines have lost their meaning. The American people are divided into two classes, not parties—those who uphold the New Deal and those who oppose it. Those who uphold the New Deal purely from partizan motive do so unworthily. On the other hand those who antagonize it for political advantage do so ignominally. To play politics while the life of the nation is in jeopardy is a dangerous and dastardly game.
The issues which confront us rise above partizan consideration. There are Republicans, in plenty, who support Mr. Roosevelt's policy, and there are likewise many Democrats who oppose it. But the sober patriotic mind of the nation is seeing more and more clearly that the choice does not lie between the policies of Roosevelt and Hoover. The kingdom of the New Deal is at hand. It will be the New Deal according to Roosevelt or a more drastic deal according to we know not what. The people have spoken. This release is indicted five days before the decision was rendered. Assuming the lee way of five days of anticipation, I dare say that the American people will make the right decision.
There are many among us who never approve the good we do, because they have no good to their credit.
Business methods must progress along with invention and science, if business expects to keep going.
"What's become of all those men it was hard to keep down?"
"Well, they're down most of 'em."
A kind word never lost a lawsuit, an engagement, a convert, a sale or a battle.
"Keep tellin' em, and keep sellin' em" is a good slogan in the advertising world.
The evil we do lives after we cease doing it.

There is one phase of the recent election that calls for a new technique by our teachers and leaders. It is in the general acceptance of foreigners and the neglect of the Negro in this country. Congressional biographies show a score of men in the two houses of Congress, who were not born on this American soil. Population figures show native whites to be but 57 per cent of the people; those of foreign or mixed parentage to be 20.7 per cent; outright foreigners to be 13 million or 10.9 per cent, and the Negro-American to be about the same.
Accepted for White.
Being but slightly colored, foreigners and mixed bloods are accepted as "white," and thus enjoy all the privileges and immunities of the dominant people. They are largely self-segregated, however, having their consolidated racial or national language groups, their own language newspapers and often their own churches.
Not only do these groups regard America as an abundant source of life, liberty and happiness in open competition or sharing with the whites, but, when occasions arises, they rush back across the seas as they did in the recent world war, and even direct American policies with foreign nations. The Negro-American merely stays and pays as the man at the bottom making the heavy balance among unemployed on the dole, or he offers himself in supreme sacrifice in defense of his country as in all the wars since colonial days.
Teach Your Child Citizenship
It may be that our people have come to adopt a line of action that serves them as an escape from the obstacles they confront, and thus to neglect the things to be directly had from the American game. Be that as it may, there is too much repression and too little expression except as imitation of the most worthless or the vanities of dominant group. There is too little consultation with youth and too much condemnation. There is too much inclination to enjoy comforts and too little willingness to assume responsibilities. Too much regard for what the other fellow may say, and too little setting up of standards for ourselves.
Citizenship is participation. Mere compliance with laws and regulations, as moral as it may be, is merely being good subjects, and really weakens a democracy by making the active people into an oligarchy,—a ruling minority! Look South!
"I AM AN AMERICAN CITIZEN!" needs to be claimed as boldly in times of peace as it is imposed in times of war. Each situation has its duties and rights, its responsibilities and privileges, its pains and rewards, but both situations demand participation to be effective.
How It Appears
It appears that the dominant group has discovered how ignorant, careless or indifferent is the mass of Negroes in America, despite their nationality, sacrifices and the possible returns, Grouping all other peoples into a class with themselves set off against the Negro in every phase and category of Amreican life, white America proceeds merrily on its way, except for an occasional minstrelsy, flattery, drastic punishment, or tinsel reward met out from time to time.
A Line of Action
Whereas the older generation tried by religious, fraternal, beneficial and other tribal groupings to protect themselves against powerful agencies, the younger people ought to study politics and measure their fellows by the ability they show to stand for the measures and programs calculated to have some influence upon the direction and current of American life.
Beginning in small local communities, the call comes for men and women to participate in the affairs common to the community, to stand for election to and to hold office when chosen. It calls for an idea, numbers, organization, leadership and trustworthy organ of communication. It will cost something in time and money, but no more than it now costs for no result and no progress.
Good citizenship is positive as well as negative. Having followed the negative program so long with no tangible result, the time has come to sting out the drones and assume a new swarm. It may be done in your village, town, county, state, and even your own city neighborhood. THE BURRVILLE-DEAN-WOOD WOMEN ARE OPENING THEIR OWN MOTHER-BABY CLINIC.

Taxicab Drivers Lament Removal of Stands at Second and Florida Avenue.
To the Editor:
As taxicab drivers we are trying to earn a living and to harassed as we have been certainly has put us to a decided disadvantage. Prof. Syphax has been instrumental in having our stand at Second and Florida Avenue moved and as a result we are liable for arrest if we stop to go into our office for a call.
Some 2,000 colored men here earn a living driving cabs. It's not much, but we manage to support our families and send our children to school. This means of a livelihood is far better than receiving relief. Our business furnish a living to many graduates of schools who are unable to find work in other lines. We need the help and co-operation of the public rather than the blame for things we are not responsible for.

Daily Press Scores Recent Florida Lynch Orgy
Daily newspapers in widely separated parts of the country have been quick to comment on the fledgish torture slaying of Claude Neal, near Greenwood, Fla., on October 28. Here are a few of the editorial opinions:
Birmingham "Age-Hearld," October 27: "What is to be borne in mind is that easy transportation has eliminated state lines to the extent of making the point of custody the all-important factor... We have not yet managed to educate our officers to the sense of their obligations in such circumstances. Too many of them accept any pretext to rid themselves of a crucial test. The time cannot be far off when we shall have a law imposing on sheriffs and localities associated with lynching a penalty for failing to do their full duty. That should have a deterrent effect."
Birmingham "Post," October 27: "No stronger editorial might be written against mob murder than the story itself of a lynching last night near Marianna, Fla. ... It is not possible to convict a mob of a thousand men for murder but until mob leaders are hunted down and made to pay the penalty for their crime all the saferguards which an enlightened civilization provides for the protection of the individual will avail nothing."
Philadelphia "Record," October 29: "There can be no halfway mark in law enforcement. Lynch law is NO LAW. It is a form of anarchy which breeds anarchy. If politicians of the Southern States wake up one day to find their 'State's rights' ignored by Federal intervention,—to prevent more mob murders—the will have only themselves to blame. The Attorney General of the United States should prosecute not only the ringleaders of the mob but the peace officers of the county for this flaunting of the Constitution. The Record calls upon the Congress of the United States to strengthen the hand of the Federal Government against lynchers as it already has kidnapers."
Reading (Pa.) "Times," October 29: "May the time come soon when American self-respect and a decent regard for the membership of the Negroes in the human race will prompt the government of the United States to put an end to racial murders in this country. The government can accomplish things the states cannot, as witness the comparatively quick finish of the Dillingers and kidnap gangsters after Uncle Sam was given authority to go after them. The anti-lynching law must be passed by Congress. With a properly aroused
This Week
By HAROLD G. EATON
It would be no surprise to me if an anti-Jewish party, on the order of Adolph Hitler's Nazi party in Germany, should make its debut in this country of ours in the course of three or four years, especially if the panic is not ended before then. The seed has been sown already and time is the only question for its full development. Here and there bits of evidence can be found to support my argument. In this week's election news, one outstanding happening can serve to throw some light on the matter and at the same time assure us that such a sentiment is present and is taking root in America.
The Maryland Republican State Committee unfolded, Wednesday, a scheme of the Non-Partisan Citizen Union (German organization) to stir the feelings of voters against Jewish candidates. Sample ballots given out by the union omitted the names of all Jewish office seekers. Copies of the ballot carried this note at the bottom:
"After careful consideration the Non-Partisan Citizen Union of Maryland has endorsed the above candidate as being favorable to the interest of the German people. We request the German-American people to talk to their friends and acquaintances and urge the support and endorsement of these candidates.
"All names of candidates of Jewish persecution have been omitted from recommendation of this ballot."
THE HIGHWAY OF LIFE BY B. L. IVY
It is not what you have that counts, but what you are that measures your worthwhileness in life; Many a rich person has lost his or her wealth trying to gain health, which is richness and happiness. Happiness is absence of pain. Great happiness comes from doing good.

THE DELINQUENT NEGRO BOY 11
By Drusilla Dunjee Houston It will be both interesting and informative for me to tell you the
public and a properly aroused press, federal action against lynching can succeed."
Boston "Daily Globe," October 29: "The Federal statutes cover this case thoroughly, not only in respect to the kidnapping phase but equally in respect to the fact that death resulted to the person kidnapped—which calls for the death penalty for the guilty. Other Federal laws were infringed. The use of automobiles for the commission of a crime of inter-state nature is a Federal offense. Invasion of one state by armed groups from another state is a Federal offense. This case calls for the immediate assignment of Department of Justice agents in the name of public authority."
Boston "Traveler," October 29: "Is the attacking of women always done by blacks upon whites? Do whites never attack black girls? And if they do, are they lynched? Or is it that black girls are fair game for attack? Sectionalism is abhorrent to Americans. The North tries to understand the southern point of view. It is difficult to applaud not alone the lynching, but the sadistic disgustment of corpses after the blood lust has been partially satisfied by a hanging or burning. We consider ourselves civilized in this country. Name another country that can match the lynchings of the South."
New York Post," October 29: "Immediate specific action can be taken in the ghastly Florida lynching... The Bureau of Investigation of the United States Department of Justice can and should move against the lynchers at once. The case comes directly under the "Lindbergh" kidnapping law. Prosecution should be started immediately and it should be as rigorous and uncompromising as in any other kidnapping case... If the Federal government does not take a hand nothing will be done... Federal action will be welcomed by thousand and of Southerners who hate and fight the lynch spirit and recognize it for what it is—surrender of the State to hoodlums, abdication of the law to the mob."
New York "World Telegram," October 29: "Unless the Federal government acts, the Alabama-Florida lynching probably will go unpunished like virtually all other lynchings... It is significant that those leading in the appeal for government action are Southerners... this terrible type of crime will never be controlled until the federal government intervenes... Enactment of the Costigan-Wagner anti-lynching bill, necessary to give the federal government power in all such cases, is one of the major charges upon the next Congress."
story of how Oklahoma has equipped itself for the redemption of the Negro boy. It had been the custom to herd Negro boys of thirteen and fourteen into the penitentiary with hardened criminals. This condition aroused the members of the Women's Federated Clubs and the Negro State Teachers' Association. The Federation appointed a Legislative Committee for their annual gathering who would meet the state legislature to ask for a state reformatory for delinquent Negro boys.
The state Educational Association went a step further in appointing Prof. Caesar F. Simmons, an outstanding educator, to cover the state and secure statistics that would prove the need of such a school; for some of the judges contended that there were not enough bad Negro boys to warrant an appropriation. Without funds Professor Simmons set out to do this work. His wife and sons went to the cotton fields and picked cotton that he might have finances to travel and to print matter to place before judges, sheeriffs, and the l'gisature. This expense ran into hundreds of dollars which was met by Professor Simmons.
Without sacrifice and consecration blessings cannot come into a race. Finally by the persistent urging of the women, led by Mrs. Harriett P. Jacobson and the statistics gathered by Professor Simmons, a bill was passed creating the Boys Reformatory of the State of Oklahoma. The school was first located at McAlester, the penitentiary town, under Professor Lilly. He soon brought the school into favorable notice by its extreme cleanliness and rigid discipline.
At the request of Mr. Lilly the school was moved to Boley. He wanted to get it away from the atmosphere of the penitentiary. The institution is now situated at Boley, an all-Negro town, where the jail doors stand open, for there is little crime.
Worth Seeing
It is worth a trip across America to see what generous white Oklahomaans have provided for the development of the Negro boy. The plant is composed of modern buildings for dormitories, recitation rooms, a hospital, and infirmary, a library and buildings for the trades and the engineering departments. These are of brick of late models. A high steel fence surrounds the grounds. Outside are the farm lands. Everywhere is grass and flowers, as beautiful and carefully kept as you would find in advanced white sections of cities. The yard attendant and the boys take pride in this care. There are three dormitory buildings for superintendent, men and women employees. These are comfortable and attractive and kept spotless by the boys. Outside on the grounds are skating rink, sanitary swimming pool, ball field, bandhouse, croquet and tennis courts. Who would say that
Federal News Notes
by LAURENCE J. W. MAYES
Negroes in general and the Negroes in politics in particular are in constant danger of growing to feel that all the ills they suffer are due to race prejudice.
No intelligent person who understands the American philosophy of life which is based on economical rather than sentimental or humanitarian values will gainsay that Negroes as a group are unnecessarily and oftimes inhumally discriminated against. Unbiased observers of the lives and habits of Negroes, of whom this writer claims to be one, are forced to admit, however, that much of this segregation is self-imposed and much of this discrimination is partially invited and occasionally asked for. Especially is this so in the realm of politics where we have "Colored Allied Democratic Clubs" "Afro-American Republican Leagues" and the like.
The average Negro in public life (particularly pseudo-politicians) seem not to understand that all games are played according to rules. Politics is a great game and often the dirtiest. It is very necessary that folks who play know the rules and it is sometimes a very definite advantage to establish and maintain a very definite contact with those who play prominent parts in making the rules by which the game is to be played.
Readers of this column who consider its title significant may wonder just what interest Federal Employees with are for the most part Civil Service Employees would have in politics. The answer is they have no interest. This is the reason why so few Negroes have decent positions above the custodial grades in the Federal Service. They have the erroneous idea that politics play no part in appointments to the Government Service. This is bad enough. Not only does the average Negro not understand that Civil Service is not what it should be but they have little interest in voting, paying their taxes and establishing and maintaining contact with their Representatives and Senators. There is no law under Civil Service regulations or anywhere else which denies Federal employees the privileges which I have just enumerated.
I have interviewed, since September 1929, informally a bit more than 2,000 Nero federal employees in Washington who have their legal residences outside of the District of Columbia. Only 200 of them paid their taxes, voted, and maintained contact with their Representatives and Senators. There are only two of this group who are paid less than $1,560. Approximately 800 of them maintained their legal residences and registered regularly but seldom (if ever) troubled themselves with voting. The other thousand freely admitted that they had been assisted by some Congressman or Senator (many of whom are now dead) but have lost their legal residence (really, though theoretically they still have them) and are pinning their hopes for fair treatment on the Civil Service Commission and their bosses.
Many Federal Employees, both white and colored, have discovered to their sorrow that in certain Old Line Federal Establishments, Departments and Commissions the Commission is little more than a bookkeeping agency with as much authority in face of political pressure as an assistant fifth Vice President of a Colored insurance company and the average division chief will sacrifice any efficient independent thinking employees for his yes-men and tattle tale pets.
All of this is written as an introduction to a few facts recently made public by the Honorable James A. (better known as Jim) Farley in an interview published in the American Magazine under date of November. It is titled "WHO'S ON THE PAYROLL"—The Postmaster-General takes the stand.
The interviewer, Henry F. Pringle, uses the question and answer method which was initiated, I think by Daniel Defoe during the early part of the 18th Century. Obviously, I shall only be able to reprint a few highlights. Here they are:
Question. So you are thoroughly familiar with all phases of American politics?
Answer. Well, I have had some pretty definite experiences in all branches
Ques. Hasn't the Democratic Administration just about forgotten the Civil Service in its mad rush to fill jobs, Mr. Farley?
A. Not at all. There were 567,000 employees in the Federal Government on March 1, 1933, of whom 79 per cent were under Civil Service. Our last figures show that there are now 661,000 persons on Federal pay rolls, of whom 75 per cent are under Civil Service.
Q. How many applications for jobs have you had?
A. Counting all the bureauals, I should say that we have current applications totaling over a quarter of a million.
Q. How are all of these thousands of minor jobs filled?
A. The applicant usually goes to his Congressman or Senator for a job. Sometimes he goes to the bureau's direct. If the Senator's or Congressman's secretary is on the job, he usually knows what bureaus are adding to their personnel. The applicant after furnishing proof satisfactory to the legislator of his residence in the district, goes to the bureau armed with a letter. Then he is questioned as to his qualifications for the job or given an examination. If he passes, he gets the job.

Job. Sometimes he goes to the bureau direct. If the Sen-
Congressman's secretary is on the job, he usually knows what

atisfactory to the legislator of his residence in the district,
the bureau armed with a letter. Then he is questioned as to he
candidates for the job or given an examination. If he passes,
he job.
Q. What about the thousands of job-hunters who hang are
Washington offices of the Democratic National Committee; you
gong room is still jammed?
A. A lot of them haven't a chance. Many of them are sim-
e out of work who think that the Democratic Party is an an-
nage for jobs. All applicants are carefully interviewed, how-
they have no endorsements, we tell them to get recommendation
their congressmen or other political leaders. If we are satis-
tied, their sponsors are authentic, we try to place them in jobs who
can fill efficiently. We don't mind, though, having department-
ern applicants down for unfitness. We never press incompete-
m.
Q. How helpful to a job-hunter would a letter from a Re-
politician be?
A. As far as I can remember, Democratic letters were m
ood in Hoover's day. A Republican letter would show, for o
that the applicant wasn't alive to the possibilities of the estate,
might feel that he would not make a very competent and loyal
ment Employee. So we might hesitate to recommend him
other reason than on the grounds of stupidity.
Q. What about the thousands of job-hunters who hang around the Washington offices of the Democratic National Committee; your waiting room is still jammed?
A. A lot of them haven't a chance. Many of them are simply people out of work who think that the Democratic Party is an open sesame for jobs. All applicants are carefully interviewed, however. If they have no endorsements, we tell them to get recommendations from their congressmen or other political leaders. If we are satisfied that their sponsors are authentic, we try to place them in jobs which they can fill efficiently. We don't mind, though, having department heads turn applicants down for unfitness. We never press incompetence do them.
Q. How helpful to a job-hunter would a letter from a Republican politician be?
A. As far as I can remember, Democratic letters were not much good in Hoover's day. A Republican letter would show, for one thing, that the applicant wasn't alive to the possibilities of the situation. We might feel that he would not make a very competent and loyal Government Employee. So we might hesitate to recommend him if you do other reason than on the grounds of stupidity.
Q. So you have to be a Democrat if you want a job?
A. Not at all. I have already said that perhaps half of our app pointings since March, 1933, might be described as given to Republicans. Maybe you won't believe it—in fact, you seem to misunderstand the system—but the truth is that we really do not look into the individual political beliefs or affiliations of all of these job hunters. That is impossible. What we look into is their sponsorship. WHO ENDORSED THE APPLICANT? DID THE SPONSOR FAVOR FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT IN 1932? IS HE IN STEP WITH THE NEW DEAL.

What we look into is their sponsorship. WORSED THE APPLICANT? DID THE SPONSOR FAVOR IN D. ROOSEVELT IN 1932? IS HE IN STEP WITH THE REAL. EDITOR'S NOTE: The above large caps are mine. Q. And you mean that Democratic Congressman will actorse Republicans for office? A. Indeed I do. That's often good in politics. You make that way. Remember, too, that most of these clerks and stenogrequite young. A lot of them did not vote in 1932 because that old enough.
Q. And you mean that Democratic Congressman will actually endorse Republicans for office?
A. Indeed I do. That's often good in politics. You make converts that way. Remember, too, that most of these clerks and stenographers are, quite young. A lot of them did not vote in 1932 because they were not old enough.
Q. But they will vote in 1936?
A. We hope so. A GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEE DOESN'T SERVE TO HOLD A JOB IF HE DOESN'T EXERCISE THE RIGHT OF SUFFRAGE. TOO MANY OF THEM WON'T TAKE THE TROUBLE. We recently checked up on 46 employees in a government office in the middle West; all of them drawing from $2,000 to $10,000 a year. Only six were registered as voters and, of these six, five were Republicans.

Only six were registered as voters and, of these six, five were Republicans.
Q. So the system of endorsement by political leaders seems ideal to you?
A. In an ideal political state there would be no appointment considered without a letter from some sympathetic political source and no application made unless the applicant was fully qualified for the job.
Q. That's better than the Civil Service System?
A. I DON'T PRETEND TO CRITICIZE THE CIVIL SERVICE; THE CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION DOES AN ENORMOUSLY DIFFICULT JOB EXCEEDINGLY WELL. BUT EVEN THE MOST ARDENT ADVOCATES OF THE SYSTEM KNOW THAT IT HAS FAULTS.
Q. Don't you think a bureau exempt from Civil Service is a direct slap on the merit system?
(Before Mr. Farley answered this one, he might have asked: "What merit system?")
A. Most certainly I do not. A bureau of any character is no better than its head. Any bureau chief who thinks he can operate efficiently and honestly without abiding by the spirit of the merit system should lose his job. I believe in the merit system 100 per cent, but I honestly think a great deal of inefficiency is condoned under the protecting cloak of the Civil Service.
I will give you more next week, if the sentiment contained in next week's mail so indicate.
these things should not be for boys who have never had a chance?
Just over the high fence are located the barns and accessory buildings. To the school tables come the products of the farm which is in charge of Mr. Childs and the farm boys. There is a herd of fine looking cows, a large number of hogs, geese, turkeys and chickens. The farm is well equipped with wagons and teams.

M. E, Church, Third Street, be-
tween L Street and New
York Avenue, Northwest, Tuesday
night.
The affair, replete with laughs,
thrills and some good entertain-
ment, was greeted by a small
audience. With James Laney act-
ing as master of cere-
monies, the program opened with
the familiar songs of Kate Smth
being sung by Mrs, Lillie Wil-
liams, who inasmuch as physical
aspects were concerned, surely re-
sembled the famed Miss Smith. A
grand parade of all the “stars”
concluded the evening's entertain-
ment.

MePherson (Mrs. Grace Price);
Mme. Schumnn-Heink (Mrs. Jos-
ephine Whittington); Lawrence

The other day Miss Ira Mae
Lisl, physical eulture teacher, un-
‘consciously gave you and me
lesson in shades (oh, colors o-
course). You thought at first glanc
hat her swagger suit was a tawn
yellow. Again it seemed a sort ¢:
sreen (mustard maybe). You
thought (but you weren't quite
sure) that the clever blouse sh
wore was a brown knit thing
fastened high st the neck with &
yellow tasseled cord. You couldn’t
tell exactly whether the feather
that adorned ong side of her hat
was brown or rusty red. But I'm
sure there wasn't even the slight-
est hit of doubt in your mind
(there certainly wasn't any in the
blank T call my own) that the
captivating Ida made a very stun-
ning picture,
Have you heard the very de-
Hightful “fuss” — (sounia suspie-
fnusly like the ting-a-ting of wed-
ding bells about to ring) that is
goine the rounds about a certain
brilliant voung san (stards over
so high in legal circles) and 2
sweet, dark-eyed stenrgrapher?
Don't yeu wish that Baltimore
would conduct its Y. M. C. A,
Drives semiannually or evan quar.
terly onstead of annually? Miss
Helen Hughes, charming little
stenographer in the Y. M. C. A.
Central Office (New York) would
then have three of fonr times ax
inany chances to pay D.C. a visit.
She ran into Washington from the
Maryland City last Saturday even-
ing and spent a pleasant week-ond
as the guest of a local ¥. M. 0. A
sienographer, Mrs. Alfrida Pitts of
Ith Street. Out looking over the
newly decorated Thoms drugstore
at Twelfth and U Streets, Miss
Hughes was ever So smart in a
Mack coat with an Amerfean Beau-
ty ref dress affording the “some-
thing bright" that Fashton says
should show when milady puts a-
side her coat.
Now that's settled, T mean about
where to spend Thanksgiving Eren-
ing. It was already understood that
a number of socially prominent
matrons and mafdens, would enter
tain at a breakfast dance or é0.
And yon had made up your mind
to see the game even If yon didnt
know a thing about it. just to sce
who had on what. You had definite-
ly decided to have roast turkey
with fts sides all bniging out with
apple and oyster drossing for din-
ner (unless, of course your bud:
got was badly unbalanced like mine,
when you would probably stuff a
couple of pork chops). Rut you
were still tearing yonr hair out
(that is if yon weren't already bald-
headed) in a desperate effort to
find out where to spend the even:
ing. Now Mrs. Virginia MeGuire
and her capable N. A, A. OC. B.S
have solved that problem | for
vou. And with Mrs, Helen Curtis

Ever since the annual Meeting
of the Board of Public Welfare in

ment of Commerence Building on
October 20th Washington has been
full of “Tam-sorry” people. Sorry
they missed the splendid report. (ile
lustrated with lantern slides) of
the Director of Publie Welfare,
Mr. Elwood Stroet. Sorry ther did
not hear “The Lost Chord’ by a
chorus of boys from Blue Plains.
So sorry they missed seeing the
varions dispinys that lined the halls
around the huge auditorium. Every
conceivable kind of exhibit. From
4 prize ear of corn grown by the
inmates of the Home for the Aged
and Infirm to a large wooden model
of the District Jail which was
fashioned by one of the jail's oe-
enpants. Among the most interest
ing exhibits were those from the
National Training School for Girls.
The face of the efficient Superin-
tendent. Miss Lottie Richardson
was beaming with pride and sat-
Isfaction, and justly so, For the
girls ¢rom the school on Conduit
Road really went to the front with
their exhibits. There were articles
made in thelr sewing rooms that
yor could have sworn had ‘passed
through the hands of a tailor.
There were cakes of every kind
aad candies (they put some of the
‘candy In cute little showenses be-
cause, so light and fuffy it was,
they thought it might melt when
you looked at it), And there were
“mums” and roses that even sea-
soned farmers (who are supposed
to know thelr fields and flowers)
couldn't distinguish from real ones
until they got close enough to smell
them, It was a highly instructive
affair; interesting evidence of the
progress that is being made by D.
Cvs social agencles, And next year
when report time comes around, &
lot of this year's “I-am-sorrr” ones
will be on hand with a bang.

FUNERAL SERVICES HELD FOR MISS ELLA PERRY
Funeral services for Miss Ella E. Perry, for nearly 40 years, a teacher in the public schools of the District of Columbia, were held this afternoon (Thursday) at 2:30 o'clock from her late residence, 924 M. Street, Northwest. Miss Perry died Monday evening at shortly after 6 o'clock.
Plans for the final rites called
The Reverend H. B. Taylor, pastor of the Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church, officiated. H. was assisted by Reverend D. E. Wiseman. The Reverend A. S. Grimpke, former pastor of the church, delivered the eulogy.
Miss Perry, a member of one of the city's oldest and best known colored families, was born in Washington and reared here. She graduated from the local public schools and was granted a diploma from the Miner Normal School in 1891.
She was retired, at her own request, from the school system on January 1, 1894. Teachers at the Bruce School where she spent her last years of service, tendered her a testimonial on that occasion. She was an energetic worker in the Fifteenth Street Church for a number of years.
Miss Perry's death was comparatively sudden. Although she was taken ill on last Saturday and was compelled to go to bed, her condition showed such a marked improvement over the week end as to allay any fears. Monday's relapse caused her death.
Interment was at Harmony Cemetery.
The Broadus Grand Lodge of African Masons, the Martha Grand Chapter of Eastern Star and the Mecca Grand Court and Daughters of Sphinx are holding a public meeting at the Phythian Temple, Twelfth and U Streets, tonight (Thursday).

Capitol View News
While the witches, ghosts, false-faced scoundrels and other such weird characters, crept through the streets, here and there through the city, there were those in Capital View who aroused much excitement and provoked much laughter as well. They invaded homes where parties were in progress and otherwise.
Prominent among them was a group (led by a saucy trio) who visited the home of Mrs. M. D. Cavanaugh. After exchanging a few words with the inmates, they made their exit. The leader, a short inquisitive rascal, and an apparently mischievous silent observer (both masked and dressed in men's clothing), and a soft-voiced, ghostly dressed personage, constituted the members of the wicked trio.
Mrs. Augustus Douglas, assisted by Mrs. Gertrude McDaniels, entertained the Augusta class of "Tents" at a Hallowe'en party in the home of the former on Hallowe'en night.
Mrs. James Salter of Fifty-third Place, Northeast, sponsored a party Hallowe'en afternoon, in honor of her little son. All the little boys and girls of the community were his guests.
Mrs. Samuel Fletcher and Mrs. Emma Van Rooyen gave a buffet supper at the home of Mrs. Fletcher on last Saturday night. Among those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Brooks, Mr. and Mrs. Williams, Mr. and Mrs. Jordan, Mr. and Mrs. Speaks, Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Johnson, Mr. and Mrs. James Walsh, Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Steward, Mr. and Mrs. Leggett, Mrs. Shomaker, Mrs. A. C. Corbin, Miss Smith, Drs. French and Alexander Van Rooyen, Mr. Ambler and Wynberry Boyd.
