Dobbins Takes Tribunal. Suin $10,000 By W. Harold Flowers A brilliant and convincing oral argument was presented before the United States Supreme Court this week by Attorney Nathan A. Dobbins, in the case of Charles M. Doleman against Harry Levine. The distinction of making an oral argument before the highest tribunal is unique. According to court attaches who have served the officers of the court over a period of 20 years, only three Negro lawyers have appeared before the court during the past 18 years. The case reached the Supreme Court as a result of a decision by the District of Columbia Court of Appeals that Charles M. Doleman, administrator of the estate of his son, Robert Doleman, had no right to sue Harry Levine, white for damages resulting from the death of his son. A petition for writ of certiorari filed in the Supreme Court by Mr. Dobbins was granted and the case reviewed last Thursday. Robert Doleman was killed January 12, 1921 while working for the --- Washington Tribune WOMAN HURT BY DRIVER OF BUS WOMAN HURT BY DRIVER OF BUS Passenger Pushed off Seat by White Operator on Fourth Street Citizens of Southwest Washington were highly incensed, early this week, over the indignant and brutal treatment accorded passengers by bus drivers on the Fourth Street line, operated by the Capital Transit Company, following the injuring of a woman passenger. Friday morning. The woman, Miss Sadie Cole, prominent Mount Moriah Baptist Church member, of the 300 block of I Street, Southwest, was seriously hurt about the right knee when a white driver, riding as passenger on the bus, pushed her from a seat causing her to fall to the floor of the moving vehicle. Exhibiting a tremendously swollen knee, bandaged fully, and able to move about the house only with the aid of a crutch, Miss Cole told the story of the incident when interviewed at the home of a friend at 484 L Street, Southwest, Tuesday evening. She has been recuperating at the L Street address since returning from the hospital late Friday.

The Potomac Electric Power Company is paying the wife of Doleman compensation under the District of Columbia workmen's compensation act. The father, Charles Doleman, brought suit for $10,000 damages against Levine. A like suit, was brought by the Potomac Electric Power Company. The Court of Appeals held that the Potomac Electric Power Company had a right to bring suit under the compensation. and Doleman's suit was dismissed. Doleman contended that although Mrs. Doleman accepted compensation under the workmen's compensation laws which constituted a waiver of her right to bring suit against a third person, such assignment does not bag an action against the wrongdoer by other dependents and next of kin. Mr. Dobbins in an argument that (Continued on page 2) ONLY NEGRO NEWSPAPER PUBLISHED IN THE NATION'S CAPITAL Victory H. U. Board of Trustees Backs Administration, May Probe Ballot What is considered a sweeping victory for the Howard University administration was registered at the annual meeting of the Board of Trustees, Tuesday. Not only was Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, president of the university, reelected a trustee for three years, but V. D. Johnston, treasurer, was again named to that office. Opponents to the administration who have been seeking to oust the president were sure of Johnston's scalp at this meeting. It was the treasurer who has been censored for alleged irregularities in the use of PWA funds. Although it has been pointed out that this misuse was in no sense dishonesty, but was ignorance of the law in spending the funds. Struck Second Blaw Another serious blow at the opposition was struck when the trustees failed to elect Dr. George W. Crawford, of New Haven, Conn., chairman to succeed Dr. Abran Flexner who resigned last winter. Dr. Crawford is the leader of the group that has been opposed to the administration and it was his utterances in the New York meeting that caused Dr. Flexner to leave and later tender his resignation. By all rules, Dr. Crawford who is vice chairman of the board, should have been elected chairman as he has been presiding at all meetings since Dr. Flexner resigned. T. L. Hungate, auditor of Columbia University, New York City, was elected chairman of the board and Dr. Crawford was again elected vice chairman. Three New Trustees The following new trustees were elected: C. C. Spaulding, Durham, N.C., to fill the vacancy created by the death of the late Dr. Marcus F Wheatland; Dr. George W. Coleman, of Boston, Mass., to fill the vacancy, Class of 1936, and Dr. Lloyd Garrison, dean of the School of Law, University of Wisconsin, to fill the vacancy, Class of 1937 created by the resignation of Dr. Abraham Flexner. The following trustees were reelected for a term of three years: Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones New York City; Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson; Dr. Jesse E. Moorland, Dr. Peter Marshall Murray, Honorable J. C. Napier, Nashville; Dr. Channing H. Tobias, Dr. Sara W. Brown, New York, was reelected alumni trustee. To Oppose Dr. Brown Despite the election of Dr. Brown the Executive Committee of Howard Alumni Association of the District, announced this week that a protest will be lodged contending her election was due to collusion. The local alumni points out that they have definite proof that ballots were stuffed and they will ask that the primary ballot for alumni trustee be cancelled and that the entire procedure be begun anew "under proper, regular and restricted supervision with sufficient time allowed for every alumnus to return his vote and express his individual choice." The Tribune was told that several persons had ballots here and Mrs. Bundrant in Fall Down Flight of Stairs Mrs. J.

May Punish Cons On Saturday morning when the trial was resumed a physician stated that the officer's hand could have been cut when he struck Miss Kidd in the mouth and doubted if the bruise could have resulted from a bite.

Supreme Court To Hear J Grants Writ of Certiorari and for Hearing of An Oklahoma The Jess Hollins case, known as the "Scottsboro case of Oklahoma," will be heard by the United States Supreme Court on April 29, the court indicated here Monday. In the tremendous excitement over the victorious Scottsboro case reversal and the significant opinion on the Texas white primary, the court's announcement that it had granted a writ of cortiorari in the Jess Hollins case attracted no attention. But those familiar with the Hollins case have pointed out its similarity to the Scottsboro cases and have expressed the belief that it is an important attack on the court system of the South as it operates against Negroes Convicted in 1931 Hollins was convicted December 28, 1931 at a "farse trial" in the basement of the jail in Sapulpa. Oklahoma. He was charged with criminal assault upon a white girl, At his "trial," which was held at night, he had no lawyer and no one to advise him of his rights.

Court Agrees Jess Hollins' Case and Sets April 29 as Date for Argument in Famous oma Case At first the International Labor Defense was active in his case and in February, 1932, when an appeal was sent to the N.A.A.C.P. for aid, the association declined to act on the grounds that the I.L.D. already had charge of the case. Hollins was sentenced to be executed August 18, 1932, but the I.L.D. made no move to perfect an appeal for him or to obtain a stay of execution, or to protest the "joke trial" by which he had been railroaded to death. LL D Quits Three days before the scheduled execution N.A.A.C.P. officers in Oklahoma telegraphed the national office and machinery was started in motion which secured a stay of execution for Hollins and quickly got a reversal of his conviction by the state supreme court. The Oklahoma supreme court in reversing the conviction, rebuked the lower court in scorching language and declared that Hollins had been denied all his constitutional rights in a ruthless manner. Branches of the N.A.A.C.P. in Oklahoma, assisted by the national office, raised the funds for the new trial and the appeal to the Oklahoma supreme court following the second conviction. --- THE ATONEMENT A Sacred Cantata by S.

VE Official American Ratings Omit Names of District Luminaries Past; Peters Sister Rise to H RALEIGH, N.C.—The ratings of the American Tennis Association for the year 1934 have just been released through the office of the secretary of the association. Serving on the rating committee with Miss Laura V. Junior, Philadelphia, chairman: are: Dr. Andrew L. Jackson, Providence. R.I., E. Harold Hopper, East Orange, N.J., A. E. MaoDowell, New York City, and Dr. L. E. McCauley, Raleigh, N.C. The C.I.A.A. Tennis Ratings, which have already been published, were not compiled by this committee and are not official. They will not appear in the 1935 Official Bulletin. Thompson, Holmes Out For the first time in many, many years such names as Ted Thompson. Talley Holmes and Anita Gant went without any dead of prominence. Thompson and Holmes, both of whom occupied the top rank on more than one occasion, were left off the list entirely. Miss Gant obtained a placement in the women's doubles and in the mixed doubles. John F. N. Wilkinson was again placed in the veteran's class, but did not receive as high a ranking as in previous years. Newcomers, the Peters sisters, Misses Margaret and Roumania, were honored with rankings extremely high for their first year of major competition. Another youngster, Berkley Burrell, gained a place in the junior division. MEN'S SINGLES 2 Your "Tout" heard any number of groans about the small pay-off on last Saturday's "daily double" at the Bowie Race Track when Sisowen romped home to complete the combination with Fervid and a $23 reward to ticket-holders. There were probably some others who felt that the $556 opening day price was fair and the $101 award of Friday was nothing to write home about. What is, perhaps, the biggest reason for these complaints is the fact that a great majority of race track fans do not know the principle behind the pay-off on the "daily double" method of wagering. "The double" is neither parlay betting nor pyramid. It is simply a separate and distinct mutuel, set up as a separate race is set up. For example, bettors select two horses, one in the first race and one in the third race, and place a $2 bet that the combination will win. Holders of winning "doubles" tickets on Saturday had picked Fervid to cop the first heat and Sisowen to stumble down the stretch in the van of the rest of the field in the third race. The pay-off was not the result of permitting the winners on Fervid to go down as a prorata wager on Sisowen. The $4.50 award on the first winner, therefore, did not go down on the other horse as is true in the parlaying. Tribune 1935 B ANACOSTIA ATHLETICS, B. 1129 Sumner Road, Southeast.

The combination was completed when Boozer's Gloom ran away with the Beckhampton Handicap by two lengths after Mr. Tickler had taken the October Nursery Handicap. In the mutual betting Mr. Tickler closed at 25 to 1, and Boozer's Gloom went to the post an 8 to 1 shot. (All Sports Record Book). Reports have it that Pimlico track officials, impressed by the manner in which Bowie patrons have received the "daily double" will install the combination betting at their plant when they open after the Havre de Grace session. "Graw officials have cold shouldered the "double." Man o' War ran 21 races during the two years he campaigned. Of this number the sterling colt copped 20 and ran second once. That time he paid off place bettors, finishing behind Uset because Johnny Loftus, his rider, held him too long and then carried him wide entering the stretch.

Fla.—With fourteen games listed for exhibition purposes on their way north to their Ebbett's Field Home the Brooklyn Eagles, headed by the veteran Ben Taylor, broke camp here this week after five weeks of strenuous training and made their first move toward departure from the land of sunshine. Rap Dixon. the venerable old outer gardner who campaigned so many seasons with such headline outfits as the Hilldales, Baltimore Black Sox Bacharach Giants, Brooklyn Cubans, and Lincoln Giants of New York, is said to be looking better than at any time during his career as a ball player. Markham Fails Word from Taylor describes Dixon as being as "fly as a two-year-old." The former manager of the Washington Potomac and Baltimore Black Sox had several bothersome teeth pulled for Dixon and a thorough X-ray examination made of his mouth. The overhauling has done worlds of good and Dixon is reported to look better than has been the case at this time of the year since he reached and passed his prime. Bill Markham, the rangy outfielder Taylor grabbed from last year's Winston-Salem Black Sox, was sent back early last week. The slugging youngster who made such an impression on Washington fans during the fracases with the Hills-dales of that city last year, was unable to completely recover from an illness that set upon him during the winter. One young pitcher who was carried south with the Taylorites is reputed to be a jewel in the making. With some experience and finishing off the boss expects him to develop into another Country Jones. BILL REED NAMED ANACOSTIA BOSS Veteran Hurler Succeeds Doc Greene in Club Reorganization William (Bill) Reed, veteran speed ball pitcher of the Anacostia Athletics, was elected manager of the team for the 1935 season at a meeting of the club held in the Birney School building late last week, Leon (Chang) Duckett, slugging utility, was named to the captaincy. Reed's selection came in the midst of elaborate preparations being made by the Anacostians for a banner season. He succeeds Lawrence (Doc) Greene, pilot of the 1934 Southeasterners. In brief acknowledgment addresses both Reed and Duckett made known a determination to pull the Anacostians out of the slump which so handicapped them during the past two years. Bright things were promised by the two leaders. Other officers named were: Albert Ball, president; Leonard Mason, vice president; Lawrence Greene, secretary and business manager; Wilford McKenzie treasurer; and Leon Duckett, sergeant-at-arms. Mississippi seems to have gotten the jump on the other states this year in lynching. Philadelphia Star Owner to Open 25th Year On May 4 PHILADELPHIA.—When Ed Bolden's Philadelphia Stars run out on the field in Pittsburgh on May 4, to oppose the Homestead Grays in the opening battle of the 1935 campaign in the Negro National League the "Chief," as he is known to scores of ball players, will be celebrating his twenty-fifth year in the game. Away back in 1910—more years ago than such stars of his club as Country Jones and Rock Elis are old—this local postal employee started his side career as a baseball magnate as the president of the Hilldale club of Darby. And for 20 years Bolden and his associates made history. The corpora- Looking 'em Over by SAM LACY With the Tribune Portrait of a man talking to himself...

"The two hostile squads were arbitrarily chosen without regard to previous experience or ability, so that they should be about equally matched in playing strength. After another week of practice the two teams will meet in a regulation game on Roger's Athletic Field here. It is not known just what the outcome of the game will prove; but both teams go about their wreck with great seriousness and determination each day. Both teams seem anxious to annex the "campus spring football championship" or something. Practicing in complete secrecy, Trojans "A" and "B" do not know just what is going on in each other's separate camps. The coaches are not talking much not even to each other about their plans and activities. Whether the strategy of "Big Jeff" or the craftiness of Tom Verdell will overcome in the coming encounter is a matter of wide speculation all over the campus. Each camp has its own separate following, all of which has put pice and interest into the training session. BILLY ELEY GAINS DECISION IN BOUT District Fighter Gets Nod From Judges But Fans Disagree Billy Eley. Washington fighter, last Wednesday, won an unpopular split decision over Tommy Mollis, Baltimore in the main go of the Lincoln Athletic Club boxing show at the Lincoln Colonnade. Eley weighed 140; Mollis, 137. The announcer's decision was received by the 500 frenzied fight fans with boos and more boos. The two judges voted in favor of the local boxer while Referee Al Jones cast his vote as a draw. The Tribune score sheet also showed a draw, each fighter winning four rounds and two rounds being scored as even. During the early rounds, fighting was about even but fists flew furiously after the fifth when Mollis opened a cut over Eley's eye. Mollis continued to slash at the wounded orb in the sixth and seventh then Eley retaliated with a punishing attack to the Monumental City mittman's midsection in the final two rounds. **Prelims** In four preliminary bouts: Johnny Miller 140, d.

Louis is scheduled to battle Primo Carrera in New York in June and the heady easterners wanted to be sure that a "real fighting man" was coming into their town. After the fight, the New Yorkers released a chorus of praise for the baby-faced ring killer. The following are some of the comments made by these genre at the ringside after the fight: Bill Farnsworth, New York Journal: "It was a great fight. I like Louis and think he has a marvelous future. I am not so sure, however, that he won't have plenty of trouble with Primo Carrera. He'll have to kayo him before the seventh or eighth if he is to win for the big Italian has amazing recuperative powers. "Louis appears right-hand crazy to me. But in another year he will be a problem for any of them." Needs Experience Ed Frayne. New York American: "Louls needs experience. But even at that he is just as good as Dempsey was in 1916. He is cool and perfectly poised. I would call him the best colored heavyweight since Langford. I doubt if the public realizes how good Natie Brown really is." Hype Iger.

Murray Lewin, New York Daily Mirror: "Joe Louis needs more experience, but if he ever hits Carnera the big fellow will drop." See Carnera Win Billy McCormick.

Henry McClemore, United Press: "I like Joe and will put mine right on his nose when he fights Carnera. He's one of the coolest fighters I have seen." Van Ness. New York Times: "Louis has wonderful possibilities, but he is tacking in the item of experience. He is clever and packs a hard punch in both hands, Despite this, I believe he is going to find Carrera hard to handle. Pat Robinson, International News Service: "For a fellow who has only 17 fights under his belt Louis is a fine ring machine. But he is not a cagey, experienced topnotcher far from it. "Whether Louls can take a punch remains to be seen. Carrera will give him a lot of trouble."

Frankie, Jeni LeGon's little "son," was one of five children in a family where the mother is the only breadwinner. Jeni and Earl Dancer, her manager, were driving home from the studio, one day and almost ran over Frankie playing in the street. A perfectly adorable youngster, only three, his great brown eyes beaming from his little dust covered face, his aburn curis almost blonde with sand immediately attracted Jeni as she jumped out of her car and took Frankie up in her arms. It was love at first sigh. "I like you" Jeni said. "What's your name?" "Name? Frank. Take me with you." And away he went with Jeni with his mother's consent. Frankie saves all his kisses for Jeni, which is what any young man in his position should do, and won't let anyone go near her when he's around. The failure of Duke Ellington and his famous orchestra to make their scheduled European tour was caused largely by the action of the American Musicians' Union in barring Ray Noble and his British orchestra from its ranks. Peeved by this action, the British union barred American orchestras from London appearances. The German, French and Belgian engagements were not sufficient to make the trip stand up. All Broadway and Harlem is seemingly in a mist about Jimmie Lunceford's new crown, "King of Syncapation," but no one will deny that Jimmie deserves it. Tin Pan Alley and New York's musical colony have conceded that Lunceford is a strong contender for top space in the box office album of the leading theatrical bookies, and there is hardly any doubt now that the ex-football star will play all of the deluxe theatres owned by Publix-Paramount, R.K.Q. and Loew. Lunceford and his "Harlem Express" Revue moved into the Oriental Theatre, Chicago, last Friday for one week. Once more, rumors of the removal of the famous Cotton Club from Harlem to Broadway are beginning to circulate.

Williams soared to the heights under the banner of the late Florenz Ziegfeld. Since their return from England with Jack Hylton, the Ink Spots have recorded for Victor. This combo (two guitars, cello and cymbal), with the guitars taking the lead, swings to "Your Feet's too Big" and "Swinging on the Strings."

Curtis Mosby's Dixie Land Blue Blowers and the "Harlem Rhapsody" all-colored revue are taking the Pacific Coast by storm. The troupe arrived in San Francisco a few weeks ago in two huge busses and were immediately signed by the Bert Lewy Circuit, playing surrounding towns almost nightly since their arrival. They opened their initial big engagement on April 3, at the RKO Golden Gate Theatre in San Francisco and started a six-week contract at the Capitol Theatre in the same city on April 12.

His most recent picture prior to "West of the Peecos" was "Little Miss Marker." No star in screen history has been as successful as Richard Dix in creating the gallant character of pioneer times. Always a specialist in this field, he capped his career with the brilliant "Cimarron." The colorful role of "Pecos Smith" fits Dix to the traditional T.

A policeman, lying near death with a gunman's bullets in him, is avenged when his wife slays the gunman within the hospital. One of the internes—Chester Morris—is dangerously wounded by the gunman, and directs his own operation when all other surgeons refuse to operate. These and many more are the tense situations that are crowded into "Society Doctor" which moves' at a rapid pace throughout the entire drama.

Where must he begin?... Yowsir one still reels around when he thinks of the beautiful scenery at the Whitelaw last Saturday nite... And I don't mean the walls or the mellow lights... And all of this is because the JLC's threw a gingham swinger that takes all honors since the Ivy Art affair four months ago, and that's saying a lot... Here're orchids to all of the beautiful females who belong to the club... Even the lads caught the gingham fever and many came togged in neat ties made of the material... Some of 'em even looked like mother's little Sunday School boy... One might say that of Sparky, who simply was too much in that gingham vest... Also for the lad who sported a huge white collar set off by a long gingham tie... And boy, how Bill White's Orchestra did beat out that rhythm, soft and mellow, so help me... Among the beautiful scenery we find Miss America, Pauline Hart... the lovely Blackburns... the cute Ermine Evans... the same for (Goldenlocks) Mary Francis... the Cleopatra of the affair, Gerald Wilson... P.S. Gable George Jenkins was absent. Wonder why?... the dazzling Gwendolyn Penn with a cute little Miss from down yonder (South), Julia Barrie. Had a chat with Miss Personality herself, Mildred Thurston, also had the extreme pleasure of escorting the young lass home. Why can't I keep this trap shut?... You answer it-- There were many, many more loyalties present. Among those we find Regina Moss, Mary Jones, Pauline Murray, and Norma Pinkney and the others (their names I know not). One hope that they realize this fact and hold no ills against the maestro. And now, for odds and ends of the affair... Among those we find the Patterson team, Walter and John, maybe we might say trio because the lovely Louise comes in there somewhere... Nuf sed.

Jimmy Davidson and Hinky Anderson seem to enjoy the Sunday hops at the Masonic very much. The so-called get together give by Helen Lacey, Friday night, was beat so help me.

Why—sheisn't often to be seen, LOCAL DANCES By DANIEL PARKER I Cover the "Gingham" Party The J.L.C. Club gave its "Gingham" party last Saturday night at the Whitale Hotel. The lovely chicks and the city "slickers" "trucked" lightly to the rhythm of Billie White and his boys. Lewis Presley was seen beating the drum to his hearts' content, Nice drummer. The party was swell inspite of the presence of many recent cradle deserters. Many scenes which go back to the "Gay Nineties" were inevitable as the local girls "trucked" to the party togged in bustle dresses of many colors and the boys came in their old coats and pimp ties. Donald Stewart was seen trying to crash the swinger because he had no invite. He finally got in by holding a young chick's hand as they strutted in. The members of the J.L.C. wish to thank their many friends that were present. The members of the club are Misses Louise Blackburn, Mabel, Jones, Georgia Brown, Yvonne Mitchell, Adelaide Cromwell, Marjorie Philips and Helen Vanderhoop. Will someone tell me what a captain is supposed to do when he sees some of his teammates smoking to their heart's content? Maybe Barrington Tate. Lavelle Anderson and Ben Taylor can tell me. Look out! Coach Jacobs reads this column. Where was Elsie Jackson Saturday night when Ben Taylor and Placide Washington were singing "Here is my Heart" to each other? The Jolly Nine hop at the Y.M.C.A. was strictly a boom affair. The lights were bright and the music sad. Many boys crashed the joint; and the affair was supposed to be invitational. THE VARIETY PROGRAM Well at last, the knowledge chasers down at the dear old community house (Dunbar) had an opportunity to do their number. Louise Newman crooned to the boys and girls last Friday. "The Isle of Capri" and "Clouds." Miss Newman also sang with June Wood "The Old Southern Custom." (Maybe Louise can take Miss Waters's place since she is in the hospital. John Nelson and Geraldine Mosely were seen doing their numbers. Personality Pals Now I guess I will buckle on my The Jolly Nine Maybe Eddie let her fade away But that's not for me to say... School Dots... The variety program given by nurses was actually lousy. That's as far as the program is concerned. The dough was in big heaps and from what I hear they made plenty cash. The boys were advised about certain matters of importance by a prominent doctor, last week. He's to drop back some time in May. Jottings in My Note Book Robert Rhone's proposed get-to- gether last Sunday was all wrong because the expected mob didn't show up. Rhone said it wasn't a party, just a rainy day affair... Mary Dowling has the popular "Skeebie" Onley to wait for her after dances. Anyhow, she left the swinger to go riding with him. It's a good thing little Dowling knows where to hide the front door key, or out in the cold big sister would be. By the way, Dot Clark also left with the group of hill toppers . . . Little Alice Butler drops in on the fifth hour history class and makes the class run amuck with favorable criticism ... favorable though. Burkley Burill has the latest system for figuring out the day's diget. What's hot, Burkley, old pal? The Rex Club plans a spring prom . . . Tiny Bradshaw has never met Cab Calloway, but saw him work out for his first time last month . . . Saw Jimmie falling out of the T Street home. Maybe it's a comeback. Kernel Wines escorted the lovely D. Gray to the Fashion Show at Tech, Friday nite. She sure knows how to go after those armbands . . . Huh. Louise? L. Clayborne pulled a weeping act in the armory the other day. Was it because the bunch branded her against a certain guy who spent Tuesday afternoon up on the block? I just know her pals wouldn't be against L.'s decision. O. Madden has been down to the armory hanging around after Eleanora S for the last week. Is it a case of you'll do, on his part? Carolyn Walker has written an interesting story. Wouldn't be a bad idea if some of youuse gals would lay off true stories and read something worth while... "Mootsie" Payne can't wait for the lunch call to eat. She spends her second hour in the cafe kitchen ...and how she can eat... I see Mush Robinson keeping track of his lovely chick during lunch hour... Watch next week's pillar, 'cause the stuff will be dished out in high power. Goo bi. shoes and truck around to the dear one meeting place of the Personality Pals. Their affair was at the home of Charles. Wedlock, 271 N Street, Northwest, last Friday night. The affair was stricly complimentary for couples only. This club gives affairs that are different from the others. Well. Friday night the affair was strictly okay by me and after the party the club took its guests out to some secluded spot. There the lights were low and the music sweet and did they pitch a boggie woggie? If they didn't, Popeye must be a freak. Those present were Misses Cleopatra Whitley, Ivy Whitley, Florence Edmond, Artie Henderson, Geraldine Jones, and Thelma Robertson. Messrs Allen Jones Billy Naths, Flento Cornish. Henry Wedlock Thomas Freedman and Daniel Parker. The party was given for Geraldine Jones by friends. THE HILL TOPPERS The Hill Toppers will get another chance to swing their numbers Friday night when the Howard University class of 1938 gives its complimentary Freshman prom in the University dining hall. The prom will be formal and you can take it from this writer that it is going to be jumping. Many lovely chicks will be there. So get your tuxedoes and full dresses out and "truck" on up there. Dear Parker, please tell me what you mean when you use such words as truck chicks, stuff. Dear Readers. I will give you the meaning of some of the expressions that you hear every day, they follow: To truck, step, strut or tip means to walk. A lane is a person not known. An unhipped lone is a very dumb individual. A dinner or chick is a sweet member of the female group. A hipped person is one who is smart. Jack, stuff or pal is anyone of the masculine group. Peola is a light complexioned person. P.S. Who said that the Louise and Warfield romance had gone haywire? It didn't seem that way Saturday night at the J.L.C.'s.

(ANP)—Cries of anguish, coming from the little "dark cell house" where L. Bogan, a colored convict, four years ago, underwent the torture of the damned, caused one mountaineer to observe to the committee appointed by the state legislature to investigate charges of inhumanty and extreme brutality in treatment of prisoners in North Carolina's chain gangs, that "Our Lord Saviour had a picnic compared with those poor n—s." Determined to get to the bottom of the matter, the prison investigating committee is seeking the secret burial place in which the body of Bogan was dumped back in 1930 after he died from effects of torture when handcuffed to a cell door in the "dark house." On Auto Tour The investigators were led on a 400-mile automobile tour to the western end of the state by Robert Carter, a former prison trusty, who said he took part in the gruesome burial rites in 1930. Carter told the committee that he had dumped the body of Bogan into a hole after he had been told to do so by the guards. This took place in a prison camp near the Wilkes Watanaua county line during the time the new highway to Boone was under construction. Shortly after the incident, the camp was abandoned and all the buildings were torn down. Description Verified Carter surprised the scoffers with his memory of the location of the buildings which descriptions were verified by the farmers and mountaineers in that section. However, Carter was unable to find the exact spot where the convict had been buried. A crowd of mountain dwellers were on the scene when the committee members started digging in indicated places for the body. Most of them knew about matters transpiring in the prison camp, but when a young man started answering questions, one of the older men gave him a warning stare and he immediately hushed up. One of them told about the Brgan case in this wise, after telling how he had been sitting behind a barn with a jug of corn whisker: "The N—r cook up at the camp comes down a begging for a drink o' likker. He said, 'I'd like to tell you white folks sometimes terrible what happened in the camp if you gimme a drink o' likker.' "I give him the jug and' he then up and tells how the night before a N—r passed out sudden like and was buried in back of the camp." "Pneumonia Fever" The death of the Negro, the mountaineer said, was described as being from "pneumonia fever" while in solitary confinement. They however, insisted that this man's body was sent to Boone to be buried. A former prison guard, Linsay Woody, was questioned by the committee and he told his questioners that it was routine work to punish prisoners who were "hard 'uns' by GET when yo V-8 POWER GET EVERYTHING when you buy a Car this year V-8 POWER COMFORT ZONE RIDING FORD ECONOMY YOU have heard a lot about the new Comfort Zone Ride of the Ford V-8 for 1935.

C. — Four former white convict camp officials went on trial at a special session of court here this week on charges of employing torture methods that led to the amputation of the feet of two prisoners. The former officials charged in warrants sworn to by Solleitor John C. Carpenter with abuses of disciplinary regulations are Henry C. Little, superintendent of a Mecklenburg County (Charlotte) Camp; R. C. Rape, T. M. Gorson and J. W. Eudy guards. The warrants charged the quartet with employing punishment regulations "as means of torture, by so tying and chaining Woodrow Wilson Shropshire and James Barnes to the bars of their cells so as to cause their feet to become frozen, with the result that infection set in resulting in the double amputation of these members." A separate warrant charged Rape with flogging other prisoners, and Little with being an accessory. The special term was called by Gov. J. C. B. Ehringhaus who designated Judge Don Phillips to sit as a committing magistrate. Carpenter indicated in does not expect the magisterial phase of the investigation to consume more than three days by announcing the grand jury will be convened Thursday, Masonic Lodge Celebrates 19th Anniversary The Corinthian Lodge.

THE FOR s, FRED WARING, Thursday Wilson Shropshire had been punished only a few weeks ago, which punishment resulted in gangrene setting in their feet either from freezing or strain. They had to undergo amputation of the feet to save their lives. State high commission records it was said, show that Bogan had a reputation of being a "bad N——r" and had to be put in solitary confinement several times. He was sent to the little camp on August 6 for taking part in an alleged mutiny in which a group of prisoners tried to take two of their friends from the guards at Yadkinville Camp. Bogan was handcuffed to the door of his cell like Shropshire and Barnes were, four years later, and was forced to spend the next five days in that position until he died. The same prison physician, Dr. C. S. McLaughlin, who failed to recognize the fact that gangrene had attacked Barnes and Shropshire, until the odor from their feet caused a scandal in Charlotte, signed the death certificate in the death of Bogan. Testimony of several witnesses, however, show that Bogan was chained to the cell door for five days on August 15, five days after the authorities had claimed that such practices had been brought to an end. This testimony is in the hands of the investigating committee.

Without any effort to investigate its accuracy, the report was filed away. To release the body from its shackled strait-jacket, a cold-chisel and a hammer had to be employed, according to John Reid, a former colored trusty who said he and two guards took the dead man down from the door. The two guards were described as being R. C. Rape and "Doc" Eudy. They were suspended from their duties here last week while prosecuting authorities pushed their investigation. A prisoner named Fred Young, Reid said, told the committee that Bogan was sick during the biggest part of his punishment and kept the other prisoners awake at night with his yells of anguish. Undertaker Testifies Also testifying before the committee was Zachariah Alexander, an undertaker in Charlotte who said that Captain Henry C. Little, the superintendent of the camp, had come to his place of business at 4 o'clock in the morning and asked him to prepare a body for a quick burial. Alexander brought the body to his mortuary and a State truck later came and took it away. According to State officials the body was buried at Monroe, 25 miles from Charlotte. Reid supplemented his testimony with the story of cruel beatings administered recalcitrant prisoners at night by Captain Little and his guards.

Twenty years ago the nations of the earth engaged in the most destructive war of all time. Based on the rela- tively unimportant assassination of an idiot prince in Sarajevo the World War raged in ever-increasing terror for four hideous years and came to an end only when it seemed certain that to go further meant the doom of vic- tors and vanquished alike! Sixteén years have passed—the war to end wars—the holy crusade to make the world “safe for democracy” in the light of present-day conditions, seems to have hopelessly failed of its high sounding aims and objectives. Not a single year has passed since the end of the great World War that the dread roar of battle has not been heard somewhere in the world, Soviet Russia launching its vaunted “Dictatorship of the Proletariat,” through 1919 was at war with most, if not all of her neighbors; Poland, largest and most ambitious of Russia’s Sprcnents, vigorously oe ie onslaught of the ggressor; the “unspeakable Tait stant a drive to regain from Ancient Greece the ter- Yitory allotted to her by the Allies; ‘the carnage of this conflict filled un- counted graves and left homeless a million innocent people concerned only with the stern problem of how best to earn their daily bread. The Ixish Free State was born of a series of bloody encounters that left ruin and disaster in the wake of this fratricidal upheaval. The “Glory that was Rome” departed while the successor of the imperial Caesar gave placel to the upstart dictator whose Facist host took over the government of Italy; while battles raged in India, in China, in Mexico and Spain. Ja- pan demanding her place in the Im- perialistic Sun, disregarding all treaty obligations, over-ran China and set up the puppet state of Manchuria. Ger- many, victim of “Versailles,” called on to make ruthless reparation for her former war lords’ vaunted ambitions, threw off hher fear, arose from her degradation, and stands today as once before, a dread menace to the peace of Europe. Crossing the seas the gods of war stir up strife in Mexico, the “Chaco” and in little Cuba, the island pearl, while back again in distant lands there come rumblings of another war whose repercussion no man can forcast, the impudent threat against Abyssinia, the oldest of all earth's governments, by Mussolini, the Italian despot and dictator, If wars and rumors of war were not enough to vex the soul of man—exis- tence is further complicated by drought, by famine and industrial despair. Here at home, we of the United States, while not confronted with armed civil strife, and with no purpose to engage in entangling alli- ances abroad, share to the full the all- pervading gloom that over-shadows the world. With 12 million citizens unemployed, nearly 30 million on gov- ernment relief and with the fortunate ones still able to find employment, daily confronted with the ever-in. creasing cost of living; perplexed, uncertain which way to turn; we, too, {n common with mankind everywhere, seek eagerly to know— What's wrong with the world? iia aincatcibaeteee Advice to the pessimist: Don’t worry; it ean’t be any worse. ——_o.____ The Student Strike Washington’s high school students are not interested in the proposed stu- dent strike which is scheduled to take place Friday from 11 to 12, Leaflets bearing high) sounding names of organizations have been dis- tributed among students. It is notice- able that none of the leaflets bear a single name of a person or recognized group. es Henry I. Quinn, member of the Board of Education, asked a question that is on the lips of all sound-think- ing persons when he warted to know “why the sudden agitation for peace when every other country is arming to the teeth?” It is also noticeable that David Car- linder, a youth who has been arrested for picketing the German Embassy and who was called the root of a stu- dent unrest at McKinley Tech last year, is connected with the so-called central strike committee. Carlinder was recently refused admission to George Washington University. It speaks well for students of color- ed public schools when they refuse to ally themselves with extreme radical pours whose activities in strikes, unger marches and demonstrations are no doubt inspired by persons who are opposed to Americanism and the sxiuciples this country stand for. F a o 2 | Kelly Miller Discusses The Cultural Kinship ot Negro and Jew Meekness, humility, patience, long-suf- fering, loving kindness, non-resent- fulness, are graces that shine to per- fection’ in the Negro’s nature. ‘The Negro and the Jew are spiritually close- ly akin. The Negro takes to the Hebrew Serip- ture as a duck to water, to use a homely and familiar comparison. Noah and the Ark, Dan- iel in the Lions’ Den, The Hebrew Children in the Fiery Furnace, Jonah and the Whale are absorbed and relished as folk stories as if they were an indigenous part of Negro folk lore. ‘When the Negro first came in contact with the doctrine and preachments of the Old Testa- ment, they satisfied his longings as nothing else could do, In the inner recesses of his soul he felt that: “This is the way I Jong have sought and mourned because 1 found it not.” In a recent release I pointed out how naturally a Negro cast could play the roles in “The Green Pat tures” without the semblance of anomaly or anachronism, The Bible is but the Hebrew soul turned wrong side out, the Spirituals are but the Negro soul wrong side out, These two bodies of spiritual literature, one expressed in poetic and the other in lyric form, represent the quest of these eee, races after God, if happily they might find Him. THE AMERICAN NEGRO THE AMERICAN INDIAN It required io great missionary effort to evangelize the Negro or to bring him within the fold of Christianity. When this spiritual cult was incidentally called to his attention, he greedily absorbed it as if remembering some- thing wiich he had once known but forgotten. The Christian religion makes no similar appeal to any other non-white race. The American Indian is no nearer evangeli- zation today than he was when Columbus first discovered America. Although a constant stream of Christian endeavor has been brought to play upon him, it finds no ready response in his Indian nature. The missionary movement throughout the world during the past four hundred years hag made little or no appreciable headway outside the Aryan-race, with the sin- ge and singular exception of the Negro in the Western world, Here the seed was sown in prepared soil and brought forth abundant fruit, The Aryan race, of which the Teuton is the chief representatives, adopted Christianity, but this borrowed religion has never conquered its tough Teutonic spirit. It is entirely logical that Adolf Hitler, the chief embodiment of the spirit of the Teuton, should chafe under the galling of this Semetic Spiritual Cult, but Ham is perfectly willing and satisfied to dwell in the Spiritual tent of Shem. BORROWS RELIGION AND MAKES IT HIS OWN Not only has the Negro borrowed the reli- gion of the Old and New Testaments, but he has absorbed it and made it his own. He is today the fuilest embodiment of the spirit of Christianity to be found among the varieties ‘of the human family. In some respects he carries it to a higher degree of fulfillment than its originator, the Jew. Meekness, humility, patience, long-suffering, loving kindness, non-resentfulness, are the qrowning graces of the Christian religion. This galaxy of graces shines to perfection in the Negro’s nature, Gandhi in India, typifying the spirit of the Hindu race, represents the next best exempli- fication of the Christ spirit in the world today. Eliminating the exerescences of ignorance poverty, vice and crime and degredation, which no religion can eliminate, the "Nearo is the best Hee} representative of the Christ in the world today. When these excrescences shall have been eliminated, when corruption shall have put on ineorruption, when vice shall be clothed with Virtue, when superficiality shall have given way to naturalness, the Christian graces shall shine forth in the Negro character brighter and brighter unto the Perfect Day. RELATIONSHIP 1S SYMPATHETIC BETWEEN NEGRO AND JEW Outside of the spiritual domain, there is a close sympathetic understanding and relation- ship between Jew and Negro in the broad field of culture. It is the Jew who has given the Negro oprortunity to show forth his talent in music, dramatics, literature and art. It is not ‘without significance that Dr. Earnest E. Just, the outstanding Negro scientist of his day and generation, has been given an opportunity to perfect and express his genius through the beneficence of that great Jew, Julius Rosen- wald, The cultural development of the Negro cen- ters about Harlem, under sponsorship and en- couragement of members of the Jewish race. Is it not to be considered strange that Phila- delphia, which until recently has contained more Negroes than New York City, who have been exposed to as good educational opportuni- ties, has developed no cuitural leadership of the race? The same thing might be said of Wash- ington, the Capital of the Nation, which con- tains the largest number of Negroes of educa- tion, position and standing to be found any- where else in the world. ‘Yet the Capital of the Nation has exhibited tittle or no leadership or developed talent in mnusic, daueing, dramaties or other forms of artistic expression with which the Negro is un- doubtedly endowed. This discrepancy may be accounted for by the fact that the cultural life of these com- munities, such as jt is. is under dominant Gen- tile control which had little interest in develop- ing special Negro gifts and cultura! capacities. Bu. the Jew, who controls the theatres, con- ceris, amusements and largely, the channels of literary publication of the Nation has given the Negre his chance. These two racial minorities in our national life have many points in common, not omy as concerns the social and civil disabilities under Which they both labor, but their cultural gifts and endownments and the likeness of spirit, which is not only kin but kind. | Do not be discouraged simply because many tinds do not agree upon one community pro- ject.

The crabs will soon be running. Up here in town we seem to have a little ‘edge on the Chesapeake and its tributaries, for our crabs run all the year! If any reader think I am trying to put over a fast one, let him go into some of our select circles when Mr, Go-Getter suggests that the United Holier Than Thous get together with the Ours for Action Society to put over a civic project, Then get out your crab net! Here comes a fat one! Missed him that time! He scuttled into a hole called, “It seems to me that is really —er—the province of this organization.” There’s another! He’s gone under that rock marked, “If anything is done it should be through us.” Missed a third one, doggone it! Yonder he ‘goes, see the bubbles! He’s hiding in the mud of “We can't afford to follow others. Our pres- tige demands that we should get the credit for this.” And is that mud thick! Get busy with your bait, brothers. Patch your nets extra strong. Net those crabs, ‘wringgling and kicking, and hold them up where the public can see them. and laugh at them, before you drop them into that boiling pot of public disgust! Then go back and gét behind the “Ours for action society.” ‘The crabs are running! And how! “ACTION.” N.A.A.C.P. president agrees with editorial in ‘The Tribune To the Editor: In the Tribune of April 6, there appeared an editorial, “The Southern Negro and the Chureh,” which, as president of the local N.A.A.CP.. I feel very strongly should be Drought to the attention of every member of our race in the District, I have little sympathy, and I believe that few of our race, in these trying times, have sympathy, for any division of thought or ‘effort -aused by conflicts between creeds, But on the other hand, I believe, and am happy to say that many ‘other officials of this organization believe, that there is every necessity for honest faith, and the closest cooperation with the chureh, Only a few weeks ago, one of our national officers stated most emphatically, to a large and ens group of representatives of the .A.A.C.P., that the people whom we profess to serve, must be reached through the churches, if at all. Again, I want to say that there may be, and very likely arc hundreds of our preachors who have not had the opportunity to gain what we like to call “education.” But it has been my experience, that in spite of the absence of formal learning. these pastors somehow man- age to hold their flocks together, and however primitive the language in which it is given, they do get across some mighty sound philos- ophy. and practical Christianity, to a peopie who would certainly starve on such husks as were flung down by the very immature author of “On This Rock.” Our better prepared preachers need no de- fense, We all know that there are no more militant defenders of our rights as American citizens to be found anywhere, than are found among their ranks. And it was in recognition of this fact, that one of my first acts as President of this local organization was to create a Church Activities Committee. Every word in the Washington Tribune edi- torial, deserves, in my opinion, the highest commendation. While I believe absolutely in freedom of speech, I sincerely regret that the columns of our official organ were used to give such need- less, wanton affront to the many thousands of our race who look to us for serious, sympa- thetic, leadership.

It seems to The Advertiser that it the Supreme court presided over by Charles Evans Hughes had a more sensitive regard for the victims (actual and potential) of felonious assault and less regard for the poritically dis- possessed in the home State of the victims it would not devote an entire opinion to an aca- demic political question, but would offer some ‘comment on the evidence by which the goril- las aforesaid had been convicted. ‘After all the rape of a wench is not morally diferent from the rape of the proudest gen- tlewoman in the Republic and it seems to us that any man of sound instincts would see this truth. Rape happens to be a capital crime in Alabama. That Harlem Affair was a “Human Revolt,” Not a “Race Riot” Harlem did not have a “race” riot. She had a “human” revolt Communistic propaganda, Red agitation and unemployment are the causes. Nor did a Negro boy a nickel pen-knife and a scream: ing woman cause the uprising Hush the voice that tells you so. There is a world of difference be- tween local manifestations of an uprising and its creative influ- ences. A statement of that fact seems superfluous but we make it ‘because people so easily mistake the manifestation for the cause. That was the mitake of the Pharisees whose case Jesus sum- med up in one sentence. He said to them, “You make void the law through your traditions,” That is exactly what America has done in the case of the Negro, ‘This nation openly endorses, tolerates, and legalizes the very abuses against which she orginal- ly waged a bloody revolution. A Negro boy, a nickel pen-knife and @ screaming woman were no more the cause of the Harlem uprising in 1935, than was a shipload of tea in the Boston harbor, in 1773, the cause of the Revolutionary ‘war. ‘The tea party episode was only the manifestation, “A long train of abuses” created the cause, “Samuel Adams feared that the colonists were being lulled into indifference to their rights. He was mistaken. The Boston tea party convinced him, An Aftermath of Many Injustices The causes of the Harlem riot are not far to seek. They lay bur- ied beneath mountains of injustices done the Negro in every state and in every relationship, through years of “patient sufferance” on his part. In dealing with the Ne- gro, America makes “void the law through custom”—that’s the deep seated cause of the Harlem riot, “A few years ago there was a gigantic explosion of dynamite on the New Jersey side of New York bay. It shattered thousands of windows in Manhattan and even broke dishes in Brooklyn, fifteen miles away, All the fire’ engines in the lower part of New York came out and raced he'plessly up and down the streets looking for the cause of the damage. They found plenty of manifestation of the explosion, but did not discover the cause for that was miles out of their reach.” The framers of the Declaration of Independence prophesied that uprising would occur “in the course of human events” if people are denied those “inalienable rights which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them.” Reread their prophesy — their justifiention for such natural re- sentment after “patient sufference.” It is written in every American history. They declared that “when a long train of abuses and usurpa- tions, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism. it is their right, it is their duty to throw. off such government, and to pro- vide new guards for their future security.” They Acted as Instructed By Our Constitution If that’s red, then the writers of the Declaration of Independence are very Red. They told Ameri- cans not to stand injustice after “patient sufferance.” - The Negro has reached the en- durance limit—the point where the Declaration of Independence says, it is time to revolt when the “in- Hints on TUBERCULOSIS bo Ties epics In these days of modern living, as men rush helter-skelter after Position, money, pleasure and self- gratification, they forget to put on their program—*“My Health.” They either do not know, or do not care to know that man’s physical health ¢an not hold up indefinitely under incessant strain of any kind. Bacilli_ tuberculosis however, never forget to lurk in man’s daily path to prey upon him as soon as his body loses its inherant protec- tive powers, It is not meant by this that one should always be fearful and anx- ious about his health. but it does mean that he should always be watchful against the conditions that impair one’s health, such as the following: Excessive indulgence in alcoholic drinks, tobacco or“ norcotics. Over-indulgence in social habits or self-abuses. The habitual following of “night Jife” or vices of any kind. The neglect of regular meal hours, over-eating or bad food combination, Business worries, occupational ‘Basards and strains, | Sedentary habits and indoors life, lack of exercise and sunshine Neglecting acquired defects, such as spinal curvature flat chest drooping ribs, fallen stomach and other deformities, Chronic nasal catarrh, senusitis chronic tonsilitis or pyorrhea.

BURROUGHS een See Uh eee Cm met eee ae eee seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness and obstract the administration of justice.” Yes, “a long train of abuses” caused the Harlem uprising. When Truth gets a hearing and when the “candid world,” to which the Declaration of Independence refers. reads about Harlem smash- ing windows, and studies “the long train of abuse” which the Ameri- can Negro has suffered patiently, it will say—truly History repeats itself. Our first revolution grew out of a “long train of abuses.” Red blooded Americans sat the noble example in 1773, and_ the writers of the Declaration of Inde- pendence warned the nation of the dangers that arise from—‘inva- sions on the rights of the people; exposing them to the dangers of invasions; obstruct the adminis- ‘tration of justice; depriving cit{- zens of the benefits of trial by jury of their peers; altering, fundament- ally, the forms of our govern- ments; and ravaging and destroy- ing the lives of our people.” Thomah Jefferson, Samuel Adams and their associates were seers--They saw to the very bottom of human en- durance and warned the nation that even “patient sufference” has a limit. ‘Too Many Home-grown Reds in America A few days ago the daly papers excoriated Secretary Perkins for permitting deportable aliens to re- main in this country. They called them Reds and enemies to Ameri- can institutions and ideals. There are too many of them here, they say. ‘The newspapers were right. Since America manufactures hor own reds through the lynching in- dustry and other forms of base in- justice, she has a huge surplus of Reds of her own on hand. It saves America’s face to put the cause on alien propagandists, communists and reds—or on. un employment. They are good alibis, but they are not on that “long train of abuses” that actually en- gender bitterness and resentment. America rewards all Reds — home-made and imported—by giy- ing them unlimited opportunities to do anything they are big enough to do, but she seldom gives loyal, taw-abiding Negroes a “square deal.” The People Suffered— Hence, the Result Day after day. year after year, decade after decade. Negroes have been robbed of their “Inalienable rights.” ‘They kave been goaded, hounded, driven around, herded, held down, kicked around and roasted alive, by American's home- made Reds. In Harlem the corner- ed rats fought back. The worms turned over. The majority of the Negroes of Harlem came from mob ruled sec- tions, or are the victims of perse- eutions of various kinds, They came to Harlem seeking apportun- ity to enjoy life, liberty, labor and happiness. They are beginning to feel cramped and handicapped. They find themselves apparently pursued by the very evils from which they fled. Their hearts hurt, America’s age old attitude on the race question is the cause of the Harlem riot. That “long train of abuses’ is a magazine of pow- der. An unkown boy was simply the match—a frightened woman's screams lighted it and threw it in- to the magazine of powder, and Harlem blew up. Educationally | Speaking This College Girl is What You May Call “The” Nut SPRINGFIELD, Mo, (ANP)— As an indication of higher educa- tion in southern white colleges, comes the somewhat novel desire expressed by Miss Thelma Rediger, 20-year-old college student, who has asked permission to spring the trap which will plunge Frankie MeDaniel, sentenced to die for the murder of his sweetheart, in this city on April 12, The pretty white girl's request, however, was rejected by the sheriff who evi- dently felt that this request was a little too mith out of the ordinary, AMERICA, HEED OUR CRY By Mark Fisher We love this country’s ‘free yet biased soil So fertilized with blood of servi- tude Drawn from our backs as we were bent in toil Crushed from our limbs by hands so vilely crude.

Rainey Julian D, Rainey, Democrat, law- yer and one of “Big Four” in last Presidential campaign: “The decision, in my opinion, was based upon’ sound substantive law in that it is within the pro- vince of u voluntary association to prescribed the requisites of its men- bership. This a principle of law is exclusively academic. “It must. subserve the principles of Constitutional law. Whenever substantive law, disabling in its character with reference to the rights of any class of citizens, is invoked to avoid the Constitution, it is the duty of the Supreme court to counternance no such subter- fuge. “Plainly, the act of the Demo- cratic State Committee barring Negroes from participation jn the Democratic primaries deprives the Negroes of Texas of the right to vote. There is only one political contest in Texas, and that is in the Democratic primaries. A vote in the election is but a meaningless act. “In upholding the exclusion of Negroes from the Democratic pri- maries, the Supreme court knew that it was depriving the Negro of his right to participate in the po- litical ‘selection of persons to gov- ern him. The decision was a step decidedly backward. and caleulat- ed to render polictically helpless the Negroes of the south. The Su- preme court, bluntly. and without Constitutional precedent. disfran- chised every Negro in Texas.” Washington Rhodes Washington Rhodes, Indeven- dent, president of the National Bar Association: “The United States Supreme court delivered the Dred Scott de- cision of the Twentieth Century on Monday, “When Justice Roberts comptet- ed the reading of the opinion whieh sustained the methods used by the Democratic Party of Texas to pre- vent colored citizens from partici- pating in the Democratic Primary elections, ‘the Fifteenth Amend- ment had been killed as effectively as though it had been. repealed by a vote of Congress. “The Supreme court forgot its recent liberalism. The Justices went back to the days of Chief Justice Taney and the infamous Dred Scott Decision—went back to 1857 when the world’s highest tri- bunal ruled that Negroes were not citizens, could not be citizens and had no rights which white men were bound to respect.” | Perry W. Howard Perry W. Howard. Republican national committeeman for the State of Mississippi: in “The Supreme court decision is wrong as a legal proposition, if the court was correct in its previous decision that the executive com- mittee of the respective parties could not prescribe who could par- ticipate in State Primaries, for the reason that the state convention was as much created by the laws of the state as the state commit- tee. “Therefore, if the action of the state committee in excluding Ne- groes was seeking to do by indirec- tion what they could not do by di- rection, we are jrrestibly driven to the logical conclusion that the state convention has been substi- tuted for the state committee to do the dirty work. ae. “The effect <i the decision will be that the Democrats in the South pts ag “Steg ar teneene gee atic ae a ara Two sailors were killed by an automobile the other day, So they are being chased out on the briny. —_o—_—_ There is a brand of wine named after a prominent prizefighter.

(ANP)—Judge William H.. Barrett, in his charge to the jury in the case of John T. Witt, charged with the theft of a mail pouch, said he thought it was time for the court to comment on the proposition that a Negro should not be given the same recognition in courts as members of the Anglo- Saxon race, Previously there had been an [argument of the defense attorney, ‘in which the latter had contended ‘that this case was one in which ‘the United States had little real in- terest—that jt was a case between two races and that no one should take the testimony of a Negro against a white man, He was referring to the testi- mony offered by Robert Everson, colored man, who admitted the theft of a mail pouch as well as two mail sacks and implicated Witt, a white man, through a writ- ten confession. ‘The government's position was that Witt and Fverson planned the felonies after holding a conversa- tion on hard times and that Ever- son snatched the bag from the mail room of the Union Station, signalled Witt who drove his taxi around the park in front of the station, to a gas station nearby where Everson joined him, The jury brought in a sealed ver- dict_in Witt's case, “Things have come to a pretty pass,” the court said, “when a per- son was not believed on the wit- ness stand because of his color. If the time ever comes when a man is not believed because of his race, we shall have taken a long step toward destroying our government. When justice fails to come from the jury box, it is high time to raze our courthouses and abolish our, jury system.” He also referred to the practice in slavery days of rejecting the testimony of a slave. A man could commit murder and get away with it if the only witness was a slave.

The Hampton Players' motto, "Not for prestige but for dramatic supremacy," proved a worthy one in the fifth annual Intercollegiate Dramatic Association tournament; Saturday, as the one-act tragedy, "Submerged," presented by the Hamptonians won first prize. "Breeders" presented by Morgan College Players, winners of last year's honors, won the second place. Albert Dunnmore, of the Hampton group, who played as Brice, the coward, in the winning play, was awarded the certificate for the best individual performance. "Submerged," by H. Stuart Cotton and Le Verne by H. Stuart story of six sailors trapped in the forward compartment of a wrecked submarine, was well presented with the acting of Mr. Dunmore outstanding. It depicted the contrast in the cowardice of one of the crew members and the varying degrees of heroism of the other five characters: Dunn, the lover (Grady Anderson); Shaw, the dreamer (Carter Johnson); MacAndrews, the commander (James Tyler); Nabb, the cockney (Joseph Wood); and Jorgson, the bully (Daniel Jordan). A card draw to decide which member of the crew would die to make possible the rescue of the other five was a fitting climax. Although the performance of the six male players were outstanding, the play lacked real excitement. Miss Elizabeth Whiting directed. "Breeders" Second "Breeders," second prize playwritten by S. Randolph Edmonds-president of the N.J.D.A. and directed by George C. Grant, was excellently presented by the Morgan Players with Berail Edmonds as "Mammy" in the star role. "Breeders" is an anti-slavery melodrama detailing the horrible methods of "Mars Charley" to produce "bigger and better slaves." "Salem," a hefty plantation hand with ten wives, provided a bit of comedy to the seriousness of the plot while "David," a poetic lover, added the romance. Supporting Miss Edmonds were Laura Robinson as "Ruth," Joel Ferguson as "Salem." James Grant as "John, the overseer," and James Browne as "David." Mr. Browne whose performance was highly creditable formerly served as dramatic instructor on Washington Playgrounds. He is author of "The Woman in Gray." "Joe," a Hudson Valley play by Jane Dransfield, the presentation of the Virginia Union Players, was the most outstanding of the other two plays in the competition. The drama depicted the futile struggles of a sinful mother to retain her half-witted son against the machinery of the law. She finally died in the attempt. Marian Page-Wall in the main role of "Lou Cosgrove" turned in a notable performance while DeClue Lankford, as her son, "Joe," did admirably well with a role that prevented him for speaking except for strange cat-like utterances. Arthur P. Davis directed with the assistance of Jessie M. Wyche. Others in the cast were Juanita Jamlet Pensecola Daniels, Ryland Jones, Isaac Reid and Christopher Melvin. "The Cup of Life," the fourth play of the night, presented by the Virginia State Players was a strange tale of life with the scene placed in an isolated garden of an insane asylum. The play written by France Marion was directed by Felicia D. Anderson. Jacqueline Eunice Poindexter. Wendell Walker, Thomas Pawley, Jr., Paul Richardson. Crawford Burns and William Hagans took leading roles in the one-act drama. Beatrix Lawson, John Lathen Hugh Smythe, Edna Patrick. Marie Bassette Elizabeth Sydnor, and Julian Childs were also in the cast. Howard Players. the fifth dramatic unit in the association, was host on the occasion and, as is the annual practice in the tournaments, did not compete. James Thompson is president of the Howard Players with Sterling A. Brown, director. The affair, staged at Garnet-Patterson Jumor High School auditorium, attracted 750 dramatic enthusiasts. Judges who selected the winning plays were Mrs. Edith J. R. Isaacs, editor of Theatre Arts Monthly, Elmer A. Carter, editor of Opportunity Magazine; J. Newton Hill, professor of English at Lincoln University and director of the Tarmarden Players. Mr. Hill was formerly English teacher at Dunbar High School' of this city. The prizes were $50 and $25 cash for the first and second awards, respectively. Preceding the plays, brief talks were made by Dean E. P. Davis, of Howard University, and Mr. Edmons, president of the N.I.D.A. J. Walter Fisher rendered musical interludes. Hampton's victory marks the second in the history of the N.I.D.A. the Virginians having won the initial tournament in 1931 with the production of Paul Green's "No Count Boy."-Arthur M. Carter. "Aladdin," Magic Drama Is Slated for Children's Group "Aladdin," the last of the seven plays presented here this season by the Children's Theatre Group of the Community Committee of the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A; will be given at the Armstrong High School auditorium, Saturday, April 20. The piece is dramatized by Clare Trea Major from the famous Arabian Nights tale.

WEEK ENDING APRIL 13. 1935 PEARLIE'S PRATTLE All About Lovely Ladies and Big, Bold, Wonderful Men The deep dignified notes of an organ will peal out in Oberlin, Ohio on Friday night (April 12). And the echoes will be heard in Washington, a lot of Washingtonians. For young Theodore Curtis Mayo, (Class of 1855, Oberlin College, and son of the popular Dr. W. Scott Mayo, director of the Tempo Singing Company, 'Curtis' 'Curtis', airplane 'Curtis' 'Curtis', (even one of the old Wright Bros. variety) this is one of the times we'd use it and rush on out to Oberlin and greet you in the chapel. Speaking of the Mayo Organ Recital reminds us that the lovely Alston sisters and their mother, Mrs. Fanny H. Alston, are cherishing their invitation not only to the chapel but to the reception that will follow. Mr. William H. Bailley of 1739 U Street, Northwest, may be ever so high an authority on orchestras and such, but he's a plain old cookie eater just like the rest of us. And the reason we know is that at a card tournament the other night Josephine, (the charming Mrs. Bailley) and the silk and carried home to William a pretty cookie jar. And now they do say that the only time poor Josephine can keep a cookie in the jar is when Mr. Bailley's duties take him out of town. (It serves Mrs. Bailley right for making them so delicious.) It's a cinch to assume that the pupils of Mrs. Portia Lewis will get out of school on time these days. For the popular teacher couldn't think of keeping a scholar even a minute after school hours when Friend Husband (Dr. Phil Lewis) takes all the ways from Maryland to pay his wife and her mother-in-law a visit. At Mr. and Mrs. Walter Tate's home in Brookland the other night it was a matter of "Hearts" and "Flowers." (There you go thinking I'm meaning music.) You're wrong. "Twas the merry old game of Hearts" being played in a flower-filled room, but "Hearts" is the way it is with these card games. Before you can even learn to count you "Contract" some new "Sims" or "Culbertson" re-introduces, "Hearts." There's a charm about these Anacostias that Tuskegee can't resist. Nearly everybody knows by this time how Miss Harriet Mitchell, pretty member of the well-known Graham family of Howard Road, Southeast, went to Tuskegee Institute, stayed at the University, elected "Campus Queen" or something. Now comes the news that Dr. F. D. Patterson went to that same Tuskegee School, took charge of the Agriculture Department and held it tight for seven years. And now look at him. He's scheduled to head And now that we've come to think of it, maybe that ever so winsome misses Miss Thelma Dale of 1145 Sumner Road, Southeast wore at a recent dance wasn't all a celebration, but a celebration or that her escort was tall and handsome. She might have had a premonition that something grand was about to happen to her beloved Uncle, Dr. F. D. Patterson. Some of these Washington hostesses do the loveliest things with food. At Mrs. Edith Garnes' pretty bridge party the other Saturday afternoon you didn't know whether to eat your salad or take it home and put it in a vase. (American Beauty magazine) You can leave leaves of lettuce.) Of course, when you spied the crisp fried oysters on your plate, and when pretty-figured Jean (the hostess' daughter) brought in rolls by the dozen and cups of scalding tea you knew two of them were making. That's exactly what you did. Margaret Washington Last week was Negro Health Week. Each room was keenly alive to the importance of bringing worthwhile facts and projects to the attention of the children along the health line. Morning home room assemblies stressed these points. A joint assembly was held Wednesday morning when Mrs. C. P. Robertson's section was in charge with Georgia Bailey as master of ceremonies. After the Bible reading by Elaine Graham, and prayer by the shool, "Love Lifted Me," was sung. "The Health of the Negro" was discussed by Dorothy Weekly, afterwards a Health Acrostic was given by Evelyn Hughes, Bertha Dorsey, Georgia Bailey, Norma Turner, Mamie Stevens and Cora Walker. Dr. Roscoe Brown was present and gave wholesome advice on many vital health problems concerning our group. On Friday afternoon another joint assembly was held at which time a moving picture, showing how the food is digested in the alimentary track was exhibited by Mrs. L. H. Pinchback with Mrs. V. T. Turner explaining each process. Dr. Edwin Henderson, director of physical training in divisions 10-13, was present and talked on "Improving our Front and Backyards." Garnet C. Wilkinson peeped in on us. We were sorry that he was forced to leave before he could say a word to us. As president of the Junior Red Cross Chapter, Virginia Sparrow, of the Margaret Murray Washington Vocational School had the privilege of attending the dinner for the delegates to the Red Cross convention held at the Mayflower Hotel on Monday night. This was a unique experience in that it was the first time one of our group has attended. Many thanks to Mrs. Orra Spivey who heads the chapter, for interceding in our behalf, and to Miss C. E. Douglass, club sponsor, for having the young lady so charmingly dressed for the occasion. Miss Sparrow was accompanied by the delegate from Atlanta, Ga. LURAY GIRL PRIZE WINNER HARPERS FERRY, Va.— In the twenty-second cornfort contest held recently at Storer College, first prize was won by Mary Jenkins, Luray, Va., and second prize was won by William H. Kent, Harpers Ferry. the house, Attorney U. S. Garnes, went about beaming with pride at the picture his gracious wife made and because every minute of her party, from greeting time to au revoir was one to long remember. When the pretty nurses at Freedman's leave the Hospital and take some doctor (or lawyer or preacher or teacher or plumber) by the hand and go out to build a home they'll know a lot about the housing situation, for J. A. Lankford, of the Federal Housing Administration told them all the What's in and Why's and Ete. a address in the Home Audiotrium the other Wednesday night. Now the Paynes are in pain. (Mr. and Mrs. Edgar and their smart sons, Edgar Jr. and Ellwood.) They haven't got the measles or even the mumps. (You must have been vaccinated.) Their hearts) and this is the reason. Mrs. Payne, the lovely lady we know as Lillian, is a "befriender" of cats; and of all the homeless felines to whom she's given shelter, the "idol of her eyes" is "Jazzie." And now poor Jazzie is ill. The nine long and poignant appositions to process all seem to be falling away. "Jazzie" gets well for Lillian's eyes are too pretty to be dimmed up with tears. A fire or maybe even a flood couldn't have kept "Shootmore" Jennifer (Harold Jennifer, Jr.) in Washington after twelve o'clock noon last Tuesday. The basketball player son of the Park Road Jennifer was a member of the Twelfth Street (LA) basketball team to meet the Baltimore basketball players. And there wasn't a way in the world to stop him. The light in the front of Dr. Ingersoll Johnson's Eighth Street office (and home) seems to shine a lighter since his wife, the popular Josephine, so much improved from a recent illness. "The Campbell's are Coming." Looks like they're going too. At least it looked that way last week when Miss Dorothy Campbell, niece of M. Mattie A. Lee of Seaton Place, Northwest, was a member of the happy group of school children that isn't grand and is seeing New York. isn't grand and is seeing New York. Back way back when you and I were young (now don't try to deny it) you got a lot with a hickory stick for every word you missed. And you stood in the corner many a day when you failed to learn your own lesson. were very good all you got was leave to be alone when closing time came round. Now when you're smart and say "Yes, please, dear Miss Teacher," interesting ladies like Miss Lyda Brown take you to New York City and show you the "Town," and let you know every time you want it. And friends of you attractive daughter of Mr. Pryor of "White House Clerk" fame, solemnly insists that Janet wanted that menu for every meal. Have you noticed the stars lately? Not, not the morning star, the evening star, or even Haley's Comet. I mean those grand Eastern Stars (Phyllis S. Byrd, Richard Chestnut, Elinabeth Dickerson). "Their chests are swellling, and their bursting because they know that an alien star named Irene Broadnick (who can rave like a madman, be sweet like a couette and weep in "sack cloth and ashes" as her dramatic mind directs her) is getting tired of the spring an allegory on Friday night. (No, you should not think that.) It's a beautiful allegory, "Gomer in the Grove of Ashore." So if you happen to run across a star don't stop to pay a visit, or even to say Hello. Let the star just hurry and keep on getting ready for the allegory. (There you go saying alligator again.)

Pasturage and Pasteurization BIG cities can't offer much range for cows. Land values are high. Space is needed for people to live and work. Eastern cities had a milk problem before the coming of the railroads. And there was no refrigeration to keep milk fresh through a long haul by cart. How to keep enough cows where there was not enough grazing was a riddle. One of the solutions did neither the cows nor the consumers any good. Somebody in New York City hit on the idea of using distillery refuse for feed. The cows were kept as near the distilleries as possible. Slop drained from storage tanks into runways to the pens. For nine months at a time cows were kept in the same stalls. There was no inspection. "Sanitation" was a word in the dic- In 1848 the New York Academy of Medicine declared that this milk was "positively detrimental especially to young children and is a fruitful cause of many fatal diseases." For that sort of milk consumers paid 12 cents a quart. Not until 1866 did New York city have a department of health. In 1860 Louis Pasteur in France found a way to destroy harmful bacteria by heat. Within the next sixty years "pasteurization" of milk became a general requirement of municipal health departments. Today, thanks to public health services and the organized millman, no other food product is thoroughly tested for purity as milk. PRESIDENT CHESTNUT FARMS, CHEVY CHASE DAIRY Dunbar Players "Dulcy" Is Talk of the Town By Vivian Turner A most timely diversion from the general social routine and yet social somewhat from the angle of the group in attendance was the Dunbar Players' presentation of "Dulcy." a comedy in three acts given at the Armstrong High School last Friday evening. The affair was well attended. The superb interpretation of "Dulcy" by Miss Helen Sparks must receive high commendation. In fact each player had a most intelligent conception of his role and portrayed it with precision and understanding. Others taking part included, James Jones, Henry Letcher. Herman Smith, Mayme Foster, Lois Jones, Clarence Pendleton, Harold Flowers, John Harrison, Henry Hudson and Nathaniel King. The play was directed by Mrs. Gertrude Parthenia McBrown, the stage manager, Fred Pelham and the scenery, Lois Jones and Henry Hudson. Conflicting with "Dulcy" yet drawing a record breaking crowd was the Fashion Show and Revue given by the committee of Asbury Church headed by Miss Ida Mae Hall at Lincoln Colonnade. This entertainment was well worth seeing. The season's latest fashions were displayed by some of Washington's most attractive models interpersed with many beautiful and interpretive group dances. Miss Hall is the embodiment of poise and grace herself and the whole performance showed her skill and training. Belated news perhaps, still good news to those who have been kept uninformed in the announcement of the recent marriage of Miss Florence Snowden and Mr. Raymond Sawyer last month. The two men, who have been married (as we know him) need no formal introduction as both are well-known to Washingtonians as they have been and still are popular in social, fraternal and educational circles. May we offer congratulations to them and them much success, overlying among them Washington is the Odd Card Whist Club not only because of their intelligent conception of good sportmanship so far as the game is concerned but because of their understanding of ethical values as well. We wish to extend our appreciation to them and them for theirives Messrs. William Baker, Boyd Clark and A. Olfus, so graciously called and expressed their gratitude for the services rendered them in this column. The club is made up of William Baker, E. Arthur, C. Vaughn, Boyd Clarke, Mercer, Conway Brown, A. Olfus, W. Fry, and J. Wood Sorry I can't tell you of the get-together at the swanky country estate of the Dykes on last Friday evening of many of our social elites, but not being sufficient, I urged to attend. I cannot unable you to attend. I judge no account will appear elsewhere in the paper. I am told that it was quite enjoyable however.

As a professional, for eightteen years he was director of music at Hampton Institute and founded both the Music Department and the School of Music at this institution.

"Imitation of Life" Author Flays Howard U. Critic NEW YORK, (ANP) — Fannie Hurst, author of "Imitation of Life" made a bitter reply to the review of the picture which Sterling Brown wrote in the April Opportunity. She characterizes Professor Brown's review not only as ungrateful but unintelligent and asserts that she introduced into the motion pictures a new conception of the Negro in American life. Professor Brown answers Miss Hurst in kind and what is considered one of the most searching criticisms that has ever appeared in the pages of Opportunity. "Concerning my unintelligence, I am perfectly willing, since Miss Hurst has pronounced upon the matter with finality that her judgment be considered final; far be it from me to dispute such a trivial point with a lady, Concerning my ungratefulness let me cheerfully acknowledge this degree of unintelligence; that I cannot imagine what in the world I have to be grateful for, either to Universal Pictures or to Miss Hurst."
