In his letter to the President, Mr. White expressed disappointment "that you a.

The decision gave Jess Hollins convicted and sentenced to death on a charge of rape upon Alta McCollum, white girl, a new trial. The Supreme Court ordered the lower court to proceed with the cause in conformity with the recent decisions of the court in the famous "Scottsboro cases." The court held that from an examination of the evidence against Hollins, he had been denied his constitutional rights because of exclusion of Negroes from jury service in Oklahoma.

RELIEF PROBE ASKS CORSI SCALP Discrimination Charged to Harlem Agency Director NEW YORK—Demanding the immediate resignation of Edward Corsi white director of the Home Relief Bureau here, a subcommittee of Mayor LaGuardia's commission on conditions in Harlem met last Saturday and charged the official's of relief agencies' in New York with general discrimination against Negroes. Encouragement of immorality among young colored women was also charged to relief officials. This second accusation was based on reports that new women or applying for relief had been asked if they had tried "the streets." One witness told the commission that an investigator, had taken one of the young women to a house of ill repute to get her a job, and because she refused the offer she was taken off relief rolls. The existence of a "jim-crow" branch in Harlem was also reported to the investigating body. At this office, it was stated, only unskilled laboring work was offered. Other positions were placed in charge of a downtown agency, where Negroes were not permitted to register. A white former relief worker called Mr. Corsi "the most vicious Negro hater in the bureau." Still another investigator charged that objection to discriminator meant dismissal or transfer of the applicant to another district. A. Philip Rando,ph. chairman of the sub-committee, presided at Saturday's meeting. Marriage of Four Years Reaches Divorce Court Charging desertion, Mrs. Olivia Harris.

The couple, married in Alexandria, Va. in September, 1930, and have a child. JIM CROW PROGRAM IS FLAYED Commissioners Told of Unfair Distribution of Relief Here More than 50 church leaders and pastors representing every denomination in the District, descended on the District Commissioners Tuesday morning to voice a united protest against discrimination in the local relief program. In a plain-spoken statement giving a vivid and startling picture of relief as it affects colored people here, the Rev. R. A. Fairley, who spoke for the group, pointed out that unless colored caseworkers are not permitted to visit white homes, white case workers should not be allowed to visit colored homes. Bad Examples "So long as social restrictions in this community compel the separation of the races in so many important relationships, just so long do colored people prefer to be served by the members of their own race. Here in the District, the races live so thoroughly apart and to themselves and have such little contacts, the one with the other, that white people know but little of the social background and nothing of the needs, the desires and aspirations of colored people. "It is a bad example for a colored child to have white caseworkers coming into the home of its parent. The child wonders why the members of its own race cannot be caseworkers—why, when he cannot go to the same school or use the same playground as white children, white caseworkers only have charge of its welfare. Called Unfair "Unless you are willing to give colored caseworkers white case-loads, you should not permit white caseworkers to have colored case-loads. If it is against your policy to have colored workers go into white homes, should it not also be objectionable to have white workers go into colored homes?

Second Precinct Captain Advocates Boys' Club Organization of a Police Boys' Club in the Northwest section of Washington is advocated by Captain J. E. Bobo, commander of the Second Precinct,'the Tribune learned Wednesday. Capt. Bobo who organized a white boys' club while in command at the Fifth Precinct in Southeast Washington stated that he strongly advocated a boys' club for the precinct but the lack of sufficient space at the station house prevented, such an organization. Such clubs are educational, recreational and aid in the prevention of youths' participation in crime. Capt. Bobo declared.

The men are shown being taken to the Virginia State Penitentiary for safe keeping. They are scheduled to die June 21 in the electric chair. A jury of whites took five minutes to find them guilty. Jackson is entering the auto and is followed by Shell. SECOND TRY AT SUICIDE THWARTED Despondent Mother Takes Poison at Doctor's The suicidal intentions of Mrs. Hattie Whitlock, 33. were apparently thwarted for the second time within a period of four months, early this week, as she lay on a bed at Garfield Hospital recovering from the effects of poisoning which she had taken. The 33-year-old mother was found in a semi-conscious condition in the basement of the office of Dr. H. R. Burwell, 1900 block of Eleventh Street. Northwest, where she was employed as a nurse, late Monday afternoon. Returning to his office, Dr. Burwell found the ill woman and rushed her to Garfield Hospital. Despondent Over Son At the hospital, physicians found that Mrs. Whitlock had taken a bichloride of Mercury tablet. Although her condition was considered not serious, she remained at the hospital after emergency treatment. Later, she admitted to police that she had taken the tablet with suicidal intentions giving her reason as despondency over trouble wit' her son. Four months ago, in February, Mrs. Whitlock attempted to commit suicide by taking gas at her home, 1818 Thirteenth Street, Northwest. Rev. Howard Thurman Will Speak at Howard Sunday The Rev.

Bobo, commanding officer of the Second Police Precinct, yesterday (Wednesday) forwarded formal charges of assault against Officer John P. Hoffman, white, in connection with an alleged attack on three Northeast residents last Friday. Captain Bobo told the Triumph that his action was taken despite the failure of the complainants to lodge their accusations in the office of the District Attorney in Police Court Monday. The three, Mrs. Minnie Johnson, 69; her grand-daughter, Mrs. Sarah Harton, 21, and Edward Bolden, 12, of 13 Fenton Street, Northeast, refused to prosecute the policeman. Withdrew Charges According to Captain Bobo, the trio appeared in the prosecutor's office in answer to cummons sent out by headquarters officials. Instead of repeating their charges, however, that Hoffman had entered the Fenton Street residence, choked young Bolden, menaced other occupants with his revolver and finally chased still another, Mrs. Elizabeth Livingston, from her home across the street, they signed a request that they be permitted to withdraw their affidavits. Whether pressure had been brought to bear on the Negroes could not be ascertained. But Captain Bobo said, in response to such a query, that he was taking such steps as would guard against the likelihood of such a procedure. Before the Police Trial Board, the precinct commander stated, the complaining witnesses will be urged to tell their stories complete and in detail. Hoffman, meanwhile, is not under suspension.

Deaths Mixtures!! Some Good and Bad Mixing Features Goodloe House-warming By THE RAMBLER There was plenty of mixing at the Goodloes' housewarming Saturday night and Sunday morning of last week at the new Nineteenth and S Streets, Northwest, home of the medic and his wife. There was some good and some bad mixing. Generally speaking the mixing of the drinks was good, according to most of those who participated in consumption of the upward of $100 worth of choice brandies and liqueurs. But there was among the many imbibers some bad mixtures. That much was gathered from the facts that the host, Dr. W. A. Goodloe was not acquainted with all his guests and that one of these unknown persons was nabbed in the act of emerging from the social mixture with a beverage mixer mixed up in his coat. When the good doctor, who has been accused of making some sort of discovery pertaining to childbirth, appeared on the scene he found the guest, later learned to be a resident of the 1400 block of Columbia Street, Northwest, mixed up with two demons of all mixers, the cops. The host untangled the scramble with the admonition, "This boy's drunk, let 'im go, officers." Turning to his friend, Buster Malloy (who incidently had first discovered the untimely departure of part of Goodloe's household effects) the physician asked, "Who in-a-hell invited him anyway? Who is he?" Residents of the neighborhood who had been awake for a long time prior to the unexpected climax were startled when an expensive cocktail shaker fell with a loud clang to the street in the 1800 block of S Street. Peering out of windows they saw Malloy and the youth in a dispute over the latter's ungrateful act. The inadvertent arrival of the police and the conclusion of the affair by Dr. Goodloe followed. He had accepted the invitation of "Ambia and Goodie" to "truck on down" and had been caught attempt to "steal away" without invitation—a pun on songs, we'd say. One arrest was made by police of the Third Precinct. Ransellaer Shorter, 33 years old; giving his occupation as a laborer, was taken into custody and charged with drunkenness. He forfeited collatral of $10 in police court Monday.

NAACP SECURES REINSTATEMENT OF TWO WORKERS Bureau of Engraving Employees Get Back Jobs After Dismissal Mrs. Jennie Dowling Duke and Mrs. Julia Boyd, temporary workers, are back at work after having been discharged because of alleged physical unfitness. On receiving written notice of their dismissal from Alvin W. Hall, director of the bureau, the two employees took their cases to Mrs. Virginia R. McGuire, president of the District N.A.A.C.P. Finding that the dismissals, which specified heart trouble, were based on the report of the chief examiner for the civil service commission, the president advised the complainants to be examined by two reputable physicians, assuring them that if the resulting diagnosis showed that there was no heart affection, the N.A.A.C.P. would take up these cases. Mrs. Duke consulted Doctors Jones and Tayor, and Mrs. Boyd consulted Dr. Gager the findings of all three physicians showing that no heart difficulty existed. The report of Dr. Gager, the heart specialist consulted by Mrs. Boyd, was fortified with an electrocardiogram. A complete statement of these cases, together with the physicians' affidavits, were fowarded, on April 24, to C. K. Brown chairman of the N.A.A.C.P. committee on civil service, and on April 25 Mr. Brown sent a letter of protest to the director. Mr. Hall, on behalf of the N.A.A.C.P.

IS U Civic Grou Adjustmen For Jr. Hi Plan Initiated at Randall Approval of Prin Edu Civic Group Endorses Adjustment Teachers For Jr. High Schools Plan Initiated at Randall Three Years Ago Receives Approval of Principals and Leading Educators By GARLAND MACKEY Following an address by Dr. J. Hayden Johnson, member of the Board of Education, the Pleasant Plains Civic Association endorsed the plan to place adjustment teachers in all of the junior high schools in Divisions 10-13. Dr. Johnson who is interested in problem children, spoke of the work that is being done at the Randall High School with an adjustment teacher. The plan initiated at that school three years ago has been the means of satisfactorily adjusting 80 pupils. 55 Adjusted Of this number, fifty-five have made satisfactory adjustment to date. Twenty-two are enrolled in the senior or junior high schools at the present time. Thirty-three are over age and out of school but adjusting satisfactorily either at work or in the Citizen's Conservation Camps. Of the remaining twenty five pupils not yet adjusted, seventeen are enrolled in the adjustment class at Randall, three are enrolled in institutions for delinquent pupils, two have left the city and three have not been contacted. Educators Approve Plan Since Dr. Johnson brought the plan to the Board of Education last Wednesday, the project has received the endossement of the principals of the five other junior high schools in the division. First Assistant Superintendent Garnet C. Wilkinson Superintendent Frank W. Ballou and other leading educators. G. Smith Wormley, principal of Randall Junior High School, began the experiment with the aid of a teacher specially fitted for that type of work. In most cases maladjustment has been found either in the home or in some agency of the school. Invariably, when this is corrected the pupil readily adjusts himself to normaly. Dr. Johnson who spoke on the congressional demonstration formerly known as character education proposes that the demonstration be dropped in the senior high schools and more stress be placed on pupils in the elementary grades Child Not Segregated It is more than likely that a student in senior high school has more or less formed certain traits that will follow him through life while the child in the lower grades is more amenable to adjustment. As the problem child is advanced from teacher to teacher thru the grades his record follows him and each teacher can see at a glance the handicaps from which the child suffered and adopt peculiar methods to fit that individual child. The child's curriculum is not Mississippi Club Aids State Clinical Project Dr. Dorothy Boulding Ferebee and Miss White, the dietitian at Freedmen's Hospital, were the guests of the Mississippi State Society at its monthly meeting. Thursday night at the Y. M. C. A. Building. Miss White introduced Dr. Feberee, who spoke concerning the project that the national society, of which she is a member is planning to initiate in the state of Mississippi during the summer. The sorority is sponsoring a clinic to be held at Lexington, Mississippi for children throughout the county of Holmes. The Mississippi State Society unanimously indorsed the project and voted that it would give aid to the great and humane cause a moving picture camera in order that photographs will be taken, showing the clinic and its staff at work. Writer Accuses F. D. of Anti-mob Indifference President Franklin D. Roosevelt was accused last week by David Jones, Negro columnist, of having been only passively interested in the passage by Congress of the Wagner-Costigan anti-lynching bill. Mr. Jones stated that, in his opinion, if the President had laid down the law to administration leaders as had been done on certain other occasions, the filibuster which was engineered by certain southern and other reactionary senators would have been quickly smashed THEATRES SPORTS AND SCHOOLS ELEVEN URGED Group Endorses ent Teachers High Schools all Three Years Ago Receives Principals and Leading Educators ELEVEN changed, but so arranged as $a_{s}$ to weed out any anti-social tendencies.

Seek to Find Cause Through conferences, with these pupils, their former teacher, and their parents, an effort is made to find the cause of the maladjustment so as to intelligently direct future procedures. Physical, psychological and, when necessary, psychiatric examinations are given in trying to locate the source of the difficulty. The admission requirements are as follows: 1. A pupil is admitted to the adjustment class upon the recommendation of a majority of the teachers having the pupil under instruction with the approval of the building principal. 2. A statement of the nature of the pupil's mal-adjustment and the measures already used by the teachers and principal to bring about adjustment must be sent. Conduct Cards Adjustment class pupils are admitted to the regular subject classes only as long as their conduct is satisfactory, which is indicated on the conduct card which each pupil presents daily upon entering a class. Reinstatement Requirements A pupil may be reinstated in a regular class upon the recommendation of a majority of the teachers having the pupil under instruction, and the adjustment teacher, with the approval of the building principal. Whenever the conduct in classes is unsatisfactory, the pupil is withdrawn temporarily from the class until satisfactory adjustment is made. Scores Brutality Sergeant Carroll, of No. 10 Precinct Station, was present at the meeting and on questioning by members he denied that police of his precinct mistreated two small boys who were arrested several weeks ago and charged with snatching a pocketbook. The boys' home were entered at eight and they were taken to the station. They claimed police slapped and beat them. Later the boys were released and officers arrested two other boys who confessed the crime. The latter boys have been sent to the Industrial Home School. The meeting was the final one for the season.

He stood before Pilate's judgment bar Yes, in the judgment hall, alone, so alone And patiently heard, His enemies demands: How sad He looked, the Blessed Savior Whom none, not even Peter, would own. The judgment was passed, the cruel unfair decree. For His foe, He felt that no reproach was due. So He simply said in tones of pity and meekness "Father forgive them for, they know not what they do." "Remember me, O. Lord." cried the diving thief. With compassion in His eyes "This day thou shalt be with me in Paradise." Mary was there at the foot of the cross She wept, she prayed, to be spared the loss. From the cross in the midst of His anguish. Jesus beheld the grief-stricken Holy one And, to the Blessed Virgin He cried in love "Woman behold, thy son!" When the ninth hour didst come. Lo, there was no light from the sun It was fulfilled, the Father's will was done, And before a pityless, heartless host Our precious bleeding Savior bowed His head. and gave up the ghost.

WASHINGTON DIES IN BOSTON Brother of Well Known Local Man Was Clerk in Shoe Store The many friends of Benjamin Washington will be surprised to know that he is now in Chicago, Ill. where he is attending the funeral of his oldest brother William H. Washington, who died Saturday. The elder brother has lived her and in Boston and Chicago, where he had many friends, but for the past seven years he has been very ill in Chicago. For many years Mr. Washington was the first and only colored clerk in a large business store of Boston, Mass. Following Mr. Washington's successful career there, many other firms of the city began to employ Negro men and women in clerical positions. Mrs. Louise Lewis Washington was at one time a highly rated clerk here in the Census Bureau and was among the first to be used for purely statistical work in that department. She and her son Earl are the immediate members of the family who survive their husband and father; while four brothers James A. of Boston, Mass.; John M., of Jersey City, N.J.; Charles S., of Chicago, Ill.; and Benjamin, of this city, are the remaining sons of the family. This is the first death among the boys of the Washington family for more than fifty years. Many messages of condolences have been extended to the family and especially to "Bennie," who is so well known in this city. BAPTISTS IS LEADING FATHA AMONG VA.

Believing that the better class residents of Heglem are tired of the type of shows presented at the Harlem Opera House and the Apol- 10 Theatre, public opinion is all with the new sponsors of the show, Sherman Traube and MeCurdy Hil- tiard. These two men have had plenty of experience with Broad- way productions and believe that Harlem is welcoming a return of the more serious type of acting to the community.

Without further ado, yours truly predicts that Hampton Institute will win the track championships to be held at Armstrong Field at Hampton, Saturday, and that Johnson C. Smith netmen will retain their title during the tennis tournament which will hold forth at Lawrenceville, Friday and Saturday...Virginia State will be runner-up in the tennis tourney... Johnny Borican, Virginia State's dependable for, at least, 8 points in the annual track meet. is out of school because of financial difficulties...Tough for Johnny, as the former Jersey State lad had his heart set on winning the 440-yard championship which was denied him at Howard last year as runners pocketed him during the early juggling of the quarter... Mickey Smith, Hampton. who was clocked in 49 seconds for his anchor quarter on the Pirates' winning relay quartet Saturday, and Jordan of Morgan, a Norfolk. Va.native, will wage a battle in the event. Congrats to Bill Bell...Bell formerly assistant grid mentor at Howard, is doing things in a great big way down at the hitherto unheard of Clafin College in Orangeburg, S.C. Clafin's winning of the conference track and field meet last week adds another championship to the Panthers' 1934-35 collection, which includes football and basketball. Washingtonians are quite familiar with Bell's coaching ability on the gridiron, as the former Ohio State star tackle made two of the strongest lines in C.I.A.A. circles during his two-year Eison regime... His success in basketball and with the tracksters adds additional laurels to his already wreathed crown... Pickups... Cab Callovay, the hi-de-ho king, tossed out the first ball at the Hillsdale-Aztec game. Sunday... Herbie Tobias, e-Zardozo court star, is now a benedict...

North Carolina Track Meet to Aggies RALEIGH, N.C. (ANP)—Scoring a total of 58% points. A. and T. College won the first triangular track and field meet to be held among North Carolina colleges here last week. Part of the events were staged at Shaw University. The rest were completed at St. Augustine. St. Augustine's dash man, took both the 100 and the 200 for the only double win of the day. The Aggies won the medley relay. SIXTEEN By the Sports Editor Interest in high school baseball took a decided trend upward as the Dunbar nine, playing inspired ball behind the three-hit pitching of youthful Harry (Sperlie) Davis upset the Armstrong outfit (5-1, in the initial game of the annual series between the two schools, Monday afternoon. It was unquestionably the most decisive trimming handed a General diamond aggregation in many years, and followers of the Crimson and Black swarmed all over the Walker Stadium in celebration. And it was the first time in an even greater number of years that such an outburst of enthusiasm was exhibited at one of these games. Davis himself was besieged by an admiring throng, pummeled about the head and back and finally lifted to the shoulders of several boys and borne off toward the dressing room. Armstrong Outclassed The Orange and Blue was never in it. Their lone run was the first across the pan, but the lead thus established was so shortlived that the cheering from their side of the field was cut off so quickly that it sounded like little more than a prolonged stammer. It was Dunbar's day and the Poets played much as if their traditional rivals were just another practice team. They retaliated with three runs in their half of the frame following the O Streeters' single marker. Thereafter they were never headed. Davis, pitching steadily throughout, did not weaken. Instead, the lad who last year could not throw hard enough to break an egg, became stronger as the contest wore on. Behind him, Coach P. L. Jacobs's boys were playing what might well be termed "big time" baseball. They were bobbing no chance and when late in the game, the Generals attempted some daring base- running they nipped the effort in the bud with a nicely executed double play.

The west-enders took the long end of 7-5 decision at Bailey's Park, last Sunday afternoon. The game was a pretty evenly matched affair with big Ed Brown. Georgetown ace, getting the better of a mound argument with two Montgomery County hurlers. A 3-run attack in the Athletics sixth frame took the edge of battle out of the contest. Twenty-five hits were divided as near evenly as possible with the losers, however, coming out on the better end of a 13-12 split.

His death is a great loss to the Northeast Athletic Club and sandlot athletics in general. Mason, only 18 years of age, was one of the best players the Northeast Athletic Club had on its roster. He was friendly, a hard player and a good loser. The budding fruits of LIFE to him had just begun to blossom, but along came OLD MAN DEATH to wither them. Verily, things happen like that. --- MARKS EXPECTED TO FALL AT CIAA MEET Bevy of Stars Threaten Smashing of Records at Hampton Games By Lawrence I. Brockenbury HAMPTON INSTITUTE—Since so many things of interest happened at the open Track and Field Meet at Howard there is reason to predict that the C.J.A.A. championships and incidentally the fourteenth annual meet at Hampton, will furnish much of the spectacular appeal for sport lovers this Saturday. Among the events that promise to be colorful and exciting is the mile relay, recognized as one of the most interesting races on any track program. Hampton's quartet that barely nosed out Lincoln for a new C.I.A.A. time is preparing to meet the challenges that will come to them Saturday. Aside from these two fast teams there will be many more entered to make the event enough in itself to please the lovers of the sport of the gods. Galaxy of Stars Spectators will have the opportunity to see what is perhaps the greatest array of stars that have ever been at a C.I.A.A. meet at one time. Among them is Howard Jones of Union who might be considered a track team all by himself. Last week he performed brilliantly in the pole vault, high jump, high hurdles, and low hurdles. Sharing the spotlight with him will be St. Paul's Edward Milton who also stars in several events. On the long list of those who should help make the meet historical is Lee of Union who will have his final battle with Lipscombe of Hampton in the mile run. Since being converted to a half-miler he in that event. Then there is Judy has gained an unofficial new record Taylor in the pole vault; Jordan of Morgan and Grier of Hampton, who will hook up with Milton and others in the open quarter mile. Stars far to numerous to mention are slated to appear. SOUTH ATLANTIC CONFERENCE NEWS By P. L.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE WEEK ENDING MAY 18, 1935 P Leonard Tyner. 13-year-old Chicago lad. living at 324 East Garfield Boulevard is the champion mar- kier player of Chicagoland. Leonard emerged champion after winning the final games in a tournament in which 8,500 boys started. He will represent Chicago, the board of education and the Chicago Park Square in the district elimination contests to be held at Lake Geneva. Wis., in June. The winner there will go to Ocean City, New Jersey, for the final which will be held later. Leonard was coached for the Chicago tournament by John Turner, a colored trainer, athletic chairman of the George L. Giles Post. American Legion. The white boys in the picture with Leonard are the three next best players, John Cifelli. Jack Tufer and Henry Cielen.—(National Feature Service Photo.) DALES Vs. STARS BISON NET TEAM AT NORBECK NOT IN CIAA MEET At the Furlong Pole D.C. Champions Promised Rough Sledding by Sandy Springs The Hillsdale A.C. baseball team will cross bats with the Sandy Spring A.K. Stars, Sunday, at Norbeck. Md., as the feature attraction of an outing and picnic. Game time has been set for 2:30 o'clock. The Maryland aggregation has been traveling at a rapid pace during the early part of the season and unless the 1934 city champions are in their best form they will find themselves in for much trouble. Music will be furnished for the occasion by the Rockville High School band. Norbeck Park may be reached by motoring out Georgia Avenue to Norbeck. Md., where a sign marks a turn right, four blocks to the field. The Breakness was crooked! Last Saturday's running of the historic Maryland classic was tainted beyond the faintest shadow. In fact, it was one of those things that might well be considered disgraceful in the course of a sport that every effort has been made to cleanse. The Old Hilltop race track at Pimlico, as many of our readers know has bothersome hog-hack right in the middle of the infield and that part of the back stretch which falls directly behind it is hidden from view of the grand-stand. Well, the handlers of Omaha took advantage of that fact and played a mean trick on the officials. We know that, because when the horses ran past the stand the first time and disappeared around the club-house turn there was no horse in the race named Omaha. There were Brannon and Psychic Bid and Boxthorn and Nellie Flagg and some other nags that were struggling to get into the contention. We know our eyes didn't deceive us cause the numbers of the horses satisfied us we saw aright. That's the way they disappeared behind that knoll out in the infield. That's the way they started down the back-stretch. But when they came out on the other end of the hog-back somebody had opened the fence and shoved a new horse. Blue and White Racquet Outfit Disbanded: Lack of Funds Blamed LAWRENCEVILLE, Va.—The twelfth annual tennis champion ship of the C.L.A.A. will be stage1 at St. Paul Normal and Industrial School courts here Friday and Saturday. Harmon Fitch, Johnson C. Smith singles champion, will defend his title. Howard University will not have a team entered in the tennis championships, it was learned here Tuesday. Organization of the Bison netmen was disbanded because of a lack of sufficient funds. Earlier sports—football basketball and boxing—having drawn heavily from the athletic department ap proxitions, university officials decided to discontinue the net team temporarily. At the Furlong Pole through in front of the pack that took the legitimate start. We know this. Omaha thing must have been waiting behind that hill, because when he came in with a much distance between him and the next horse as there is between the engine and the caboose, he wasn't even breathing hard. And the rest of the animals were hardy able to hold their upsides up Those of you who wonder what became of Clarence Reid, the lad who stirred up the hardboots in late summer and fall racing last year, may rest well. Reid failed to impress in the just closed Maryland campaign because of illness. The star rider who has given himself over to the paternal guidance of Matt Smart, well-known Negro trainer, suffered a nasty spring cold during most of the Bowie Havre and Pimlico meetings. His best was not available, what with a temperature playing the tricks of a department store elevator. How would you readers like to have this column continued through the summer, despite the absence of racing on nearby ovals? Oh! Izzat so? Okay, then we're coming along again next week and the week after and the week after. Could go right on through the summer now couldn't we?

Lee Entered Headed by Edgar Lee, the local "Y" squad includes: Alfred J Patton John Ellis. Paul Woodward, Tony Wagner, Sidney Bailey, John Tignor. Earl Tignor, James Kelsey and U. Ricks. The Twelfth Streeters hold two legs on the team trophy and will strive to clinch the team cup. Edgar Lee has won the event three times—1929, 1931 and 1933. He did not compete in 1934, and was defeated by D. V. Bradley, a classmate, in 1930. Bradley is also in training and may enter. Lee covered the distance in 18 minutes and one second in 1929 for the course record. Baden Defender Garcia Baden, winner of the race last year, along with Suttler and Plummer of Howard, are sure to be sharp contenders. Suttler showed well in the two-mile run at Howard to lead Lee in by 10 yards. Baltimore will send a strong aggregation over, and with Ralph Cook of Douglas winner of the Baltimore Health Week affair, running, the Orioles' chances for inter-city honors are good. Miner Teachers' College will enter a strong team. The teachers showed well last year and were runners-up when Brainard Bellfield pushed Baden at the finish. Hampton Racqueters Triumph Over Union The Hampton tennis wielders won from Union last Saturday 3-1. One of the most interesting of the matches was that of Wheatley of Hampton and Coleman of Union, the former winning after dropping the first set. With Wheatley holding a led of 5-1. Coleman fought hard to win 8-6. The results of all the matches follow: Singles—Ramseur Hampton. d. Banks 6-0. 6-0; Wheatley. Hampton. d. Coleman 6-8. 6-4. 6-4; Brinkley. Union. d. Branch 6-2. 4. 6-4. Doubles—Nixon and Ramseur. Hampton. d. Coleman and Brinkley 6-3. 6-4. Walker Gets Nod LONDON.—Obie Walker, who is mentioned for a bout with Joe Louis, sensational Detroiter campaigning in the States, was the winner of a 10-round decision at the White City arena, here last Thursday night. ...Chicago yearns for its Edgar Brown, and its Isadore Channels. Coming from behind on two separate occasions, Runt White's 1935 Hillsdales opened their campaign in quest of a second successive city title by trimming Southwest Washington's Aztec A.C., at Griffith Stadium last Sunday. The score was 6-3. A crowd of well over 1,500 persons witnessed the proceedings which were played on an ideal baseball day. There was a beautiful sun and not a cloud in the sky except for one fleeting moment when a bit of gray crept up from the western horizon, but only for a few minutes. At no time was there any danger of interruption to the game because of the weather. Aztecs Take Lead The Southwest aggregation got off on the best foot. A run that resulted from W. Harris's two-base hit in the third inning followed by Buck Scott's single to center drew first blood for the Mexicans. This lead was short lived. however, as Red Powell's Dale pitcher started the last half of the inning off with a single to right. Hits by Fennell and White and Price's infield out paved the way for a brace of markers for the defending champions. Powell in Trouble Again in the fourth frame the Aztecs counted, this time in the nature of a pair of tallies. But the Hillsdales retaliated with another couple of runs to again go into the van. From that point on there was little more to the game-Powell, though in trouble on numerous occasions, managed to pull through without the aid of Spike Bland who was kept busy in the bull pen by Manager White. Harry Jackson, Aztec ace, had rought going largely because of poor control. It was due to this feature that the 'Dales were able to make the best of their eight bits. # HILLSDALS ## AZTECS ## AR H R Fennell.cf. 4 2 0 Butler.rf. 5 0 0 White.2b. 5 2 1 R.Brown.1b. 4 1 1 Price.1b. 4 1 1 Tillman.3b. 4 1 0 G.Brown.rf. 3 0 1 Tillman.3b. 4 1 0 Temple.5s. 4 1 1 Scott.c. 4 1 0 Johnson.3b. 4 1 1 Clarke.ss. 4 1 1 Williams.1f. 4 1 1 Harris.1f. 4 1 0 Rock.1f. 4 1 1 Checkup.1f. 4 1 0 Powell.p. 3 2 1 Dooden.1f. 1 0 1 Jones.rf. 1 0 0 Robinson.1f. 0 0 0 Duff.yf. 2 0 0 **Totals** 37 8 6 **Totals** 36 7 5 **Attes** 0 0 1 2 0 0 0 2 - Hilldales 0 0 2 2 1 0 1 0 x -6 Original Trees Bow to Sandy Spring The Sandy Spring Stars took the measure of the Original Willow Tree baseball team on the former's diamond, last Sunday afternoon.

The Pirates’ victory gave every indi- cation that the Virginia school will capture the C.I.A.A. championships to be run at Hampton this week-end. Virginia Union, 1934 C.I.A.A. track champions, was second with 30 points while Howard University placed second with 30 points whil seventh in the team scoring. Robbed of the services of Berry Williams, former Tech sprinter, who was expected to gain 10 points in the dashes, Howard tellied only 8% points. Williams, running in a trial heat in the morning, was eliminated after pulling a muscle in his leg. The local dashman’s misfortune came about in the 100- yard dash heats and he was forced to withdraw from the 220-yard ‘sprint. Fail te Win An Event Sutler’s second in the two-mile run, Blackmore’s fourth in the broad jump and his third in the high jump, and Johnson’s second in the discus throw were the only Bison scorers, The Blue and White relay quartet finished fourth in the medley relay which Cheyney cap- tured. Franklin Wins Hurdles Miner Teachers’ College, the other local institution, amassed five points as Goofy Franklin breezed through to win the 220-yard low hurdles defeating Mitchell (St. Paul) and Starks (Hampton). Barrington Parker, former Dun- bar High luminary, bearing the colors of Lincoln University, broke Leroy Scurry’s old century mark of 9.9 seconds 2s he thundered down the lane a bare yard ahead of the field to win the featured 100-yard dash in 9.8 seconds. Parker. away fast at the gun, was ahead at the 50-yard mark and never overtaken. Singletary (St. Augustine) was second with Smith (Hampton) third and: DesVerney, another Lion sprinter, fourth. Armstrong Second While Boward tracksters were failing dismally in the meet, Arm- strong High School held up the local prestige by finishing second in the scholastic division. Jimes Harrod, Tech junior, was the out- standing high school performer. Harrod was victorious in the 100- yard dash, the 120-yard low hurd- Jes and the broad jump. Hemmer, in the shotput, and Freeman, in the high jump, also gained frst places for Coach’ Evans’ crew. Neither Dunbar or Cardozo High Schools had teams entered in the classic, Jack Graves of Shaw and How- ard Jones, Union, waged a thrilling battle in the high jump, the two ending in & deadlock at 6 feet, % inch. Jones, however, displayed unusual vesatility to capture indi- vidual honors by winning the 120- high hurdles in 16 seconds flat and the pole vault at the dizzy height of 11 feet, 3 inches. He was also second in the javelin throw with @ toss of 188 feet, 10 inches. Jones, Lipscombe Star Sharing individual laurels with Jones was E. Lipscombe, Hamp- ton’s great miler, who won easily both the mile and the two-mile runs. In the latter event, the ex- pected duel between Edgar Lee, former Tech harrier, representing Mirginla Union, failed to material- ize as Lee faltered after the fourth lap and fell behind finishing a weak third. Martin Sutler, How- ard runner, was second. Lee had previously ‘won the half-mile run from & field of 16 entrants. Hampton Four Best A crack relay team from H#mp- ton turned in one of the fastest times ever registered on the Bison track in the collegiate one-mile re- lay. The Pirate four was clocked in 3 minutes 24.1 seconds, which in- cidentally, is 8-10th of a second less than the fast time made by Wil- herforce’s quartet at the recent Penn Relays. The ‘Force tem was not entered. The Hampton quartet was com- posed of Antoine, Dunmore, Greer and Mickey Smith, the latter, run. | ing anchor. was timed in 49 flat as’he beat off Morgan, Lincoln and Cheyney anchor runners to win by four yards.

Twenty-eight _en- ‘tries pounded away at Old Man Par over the eighten-hote route to qualify for match play but par was still king when the day was done. Condition of the grounds and strict observance of the U.S.G.A. rules no doubt prevented an as- ‘sault on par as this year's field is the fastest one in the history of the tournament. Former champions, such as Reuben Brooks, Jimmie Williams, Dr. George Adams and Philip Lewis were on the firing line, and the present defending champion, Dr. Atbert R, Harris, will have to be in rare form to retain his berth. Honors for low medal go to Reuben Brooks. District champion, his’ smart 64 leading the pack.

A single by Holand in the ninth with the count four-all, followed by a triple by S. Johnson. put across the win- ning tally. Fred Slade pitched a creditable game, but weakened in the later innings, The night-cap developed into a free hitting affair test, with the Elks in the lead at ‘all times. Stroman made his first start of the season on the mound, and was greeted with a salvo of base hits. He might have fared better if his mates had not faltered on him. Barnes, who ‘relieved him, gave way to Addison, who finished the game. : Joe Hall on the mound for the Elks became more effective as the game progressed and did not allow a tally after the fifth.

Flaxie Pinkett swinging with Billy Pippin...What was H. Pellam whispering in Boots's ear and why did she jump when Bish came in?... While witnessing the annual open field and track meet at H.U. Saturday, the general opinion in the stands for Howard's poor excuse of a track team was revealed in remarks like these: "I hope a Howard man gets to the semi-finals of the hundred"; "If they hurry and run this event before the Hampton men rest up, we may get fourth in the 880"; "On gee! can't anybody on the hill stumble over those fences? Where is Ray Lundy?" "Come on Bill! Come on B - - il - - !! You can catch him! You MUST catch him! Oh shucks, just two more yards and we would have gotten fourth place that time." But who cares that we won t/a basketball championship? To the Rescue In spite of the general Bison disaster. Martin Sutler deserves all the praise possible for his beautiful and surprising two-mile race. Sutler placed second, but in the last quarter he closed a gap of 100 yards to a scant five feet and all the time pulling away from the well-touted last year's winner and favorite. Edgar Lee, who placed a poor third behind Lipscope of Lincoln and Sutler of Howard. Now, while you are lauding Sutler, don't forget those two freshmen. Blakemore (who placed second in the broad-jump and tied for third in the high-jump) and Bernard Johnson (who placed second in the discus throw). The last glimmer of Bison hopes faded when Berry Williams, Howard's dash star, was eliminated in his first heat after puking a tendon which the officials say was caused by lack of training. Berry is really good. In fact, he is the best in the C.I.A.A. But he knows it. "Now, why should I train to race those muggs?" is Berry's idea. Well, Berry, you are my pal, but you were beaten in every race last year and have failed to reach the finals in the most important meet so far this season. All your losses were due to accidents, but the accidents seem to be caused by a lack of training. So, why not take this last chance of the season to redeem yourself and win some races at Hampton Saturday? Benny Brown is really visiting the library three times a week now.

Blabber collected the o-dey in advance and ordered his stooges to carry his tale of woe. The lads did a good job and Mae West sent her sincerest sympathy to the stricken Blabber. That Nelson boy now holds the record for recuperation from the effects of a broken leg. Remarked: Aren't Dorothy Smith and Funk Williams a lovely couple?... Artie Jackson just won't let Klotz rest in peace. Know what I mean?... Ralph Harlon and Mae Arrington at the Knutz Mae was seen talking to Ken Brown. Where's Alec these days?...

EIGHTEEN The Black X By FREEMAN MURRAY INCIDENTALLY A moonlit deck and you and I. The magic that a tango brings; Still we towed no burning vows of love. Sailed no ecstatic wings. For we knew that just within Were lips and eyes as lovely yet; And so we smoke of trivial things. Which doubtless you forget. The sky grew silver with the stars.

So you weren't there? Nothing missed! With the Bluebirds doing the musical score it was all that could be expected, with Stuff Barnes swinging Bernetta Burlock (he's gone in for religion). Fred Aden and Sylvia Olden looking like "Love was just around the corner." Hazel Jiggetts and the boy-friend in the usual turmoil. Doris Carter looking like something in something that must have been the only like it...

Wonder just how did Inez Gwynn feel when she went to call on "her friend" Camille Ford and there found Everett Cooper, Camille's past and Inez's present?...So they say, and it is a bonny rumor. Ray Lundy is seen as much with Dot Alexander as he is with Louise. Skeebie Onley, tanked as usual, rather embarrassed Addison Rand at the track dance Saturday. The best he could do was to trip up Ad while he was dancing. So very much in demand is Madeline Williams, according to her thoughts, that she must make a decision as to whether "Buddy" Lucas or Richard Poole will benefit her most in her life. As bad as Annabelle Jones wanted to walk around the reservoir with Ernest Stark, she sacrificed the pleasure so that it wouldn't be in the X. Just "Leve's Labor Lost"... Ernest Marshall was so anxious to find Sarah Wyche that he went to Stanley Nelson's house to find her. Let's all truck down to the Colonnade to see Ada Dean. Thursday night, in her riding habit. That a'one should draw a crowd. Does Flaxie Pinkett know that she's speeding with Scottie Scoeka? Is Mabel White gonna score with the Ambassadors when the Elks throw their "Night in Harlem" on the 29th?...The "Y" has opened up a dancing class, into which Sara Wyche, Inez Gwynn and Camille Ford couldn't get. Wonder could the girls ever have heard the Ink Spots sing "Your Feets Too Big"? No insinuations, though!...And luck rode by their sides—an' how!...Mercedes and Clarice Keys were gleefully riding along Sunday in their pater's Sunday chariot when alluva sudden they found themselves, car and all, slightly riding upside down, midways, sidewise and allwise. The results: pater—no more car, a perfect smuhup job; couldn't have been better. The girls just scratched on the legs. Harlem's Ubangi Cldb seems to be scoring over the famous Cotton Club. Maybe just because it's something new ya know... No fooling. Lillymay, that dance was ready. When will you be coming that way again? Just cannot understand why Spot Lewis and Fathead Smith cannot stay apart. LOCAL DANCES By DANIEL PARKER Dunbar Performs in Rockville The girl's in Rockville sure had a crush on the local boys from the community house (Dunbar). With pardon to Placide Washington. I must say that Ben Taylor left the baseball game early and was seen jibing a fair co-ed of Rockville in the bus. Francis Fenwich seems to get a kick out of getting addresses from the young ladies. So now he will hop up there (Rockville) instead of Fredericksburg. Look out! Lula; get hip to your self. Last Sunday this writer and friends were among the many attending the "Acquaintance Day" given by the manager of Carr's Beach. Many members of the capital and younger set were seen strolling along the boardwalk. There were dancing, fishing and games. The music was swell. The Brigadiers The evening was filled with music and gayety. The Masoniz Temple was packed by virtue of the fact that many swinger arrived before nine bells. The lyrics were furnished by Bill Hester's Bluebirds. Will someone tell me why some local girls ride up to the different dances in cabs and truck home after the dances are over? Too bad Dorothy Boston had to truck home after the dance. May be the boy-friend was out of cash. Sam Bailey and the lovely Alice Barnes were seen doing their numbers. Say, Bailey, what is wrong with you and Helen? Gertic Brown held on to Leon Braxtor all the evening. Well, well, the romance between Wilnet Kyle and Tracy seems to be increasing Anyway, she was the only one to wear his drill medal. Ethel Robinson came out of her solitude and trucked up to the dance. Jimmie Dent was seen dancing constantly with Anna Queen. Is he really falling for her? Come on, Jimmie, you are supposed to be a tough man. The lights were dim and Mary Barnes Blanche Scott, Elosie Boston, Lillian Glascoe, Mary Robinson Georgia Jones, Ruth Watson Georgia Williams, Lillian Wheeler V. Greenfield, Mary Wright and Mabel Jones were seen doing their numbers in the shaded (dim) spots. From out to the Gardens comes news that the dance was sad. It must have been because the local boys were afraid to venture out. The R. R.'s Club is giving a dance tomorrow night (Friday) at the home of Miss Helen Johnson. The crowd will be there, so sweep yourself clean and come on down At last it has happened. Dunbar High School is putting on a swell fashion show tomorrow (Friday) in the armory. You will see members of the faculty giving the local kids their conception of the latest dances. The affair will begin at 2:30 and last until 5 bells. Gertie Wells will furnish the music. Many students will truck on down to swing and eat.

Trucking up Eleventh Street nite before the "big guns" went into action and stumbled across a "break" for youse anxious readers. It's Jean B., a Dunbar lass of note, who takes dancing lessons from a very sharp male, who adds as his claim to fame a string of girlies. It's truly wonderful how that Lorettia Deans and her group of girls make friends. Why it's home to me on upper Eleventh. The bad booze that was smuggled to the drill by some of the scholars of the "also drilled" lads, the basis of one rooter to pass out...He sat under the crimson and black flag and has a bibro. By the way, ten minutes after the ball park doing I spied Walter Douglass and his buggy riding M.R. and M.A., who are constant passengers... Drill Chatter L. Anderson holding E.

Looked over the orange and blue wolks. It was shocking to see Vivian Poindexter and some of the lassies' friends whooping for the rivals...Vivian took in the Maonic ball after the drill. Others seen at the swinger were: Julius Newman. Quendolyn Penn. Gertrude West, Henry Anderson, Jimmy Davidson Marion Smith, Nettie Harris and Edith Smith. Humming-bird Harrod whistles "On the Isle of Caprese" every time he passes M. Robinson... Romance is in the air, and it was also at Mildred Thurston's hop last Friday nite.

The Younger Set has gone and found a real black-ball list of the so-called popular lassies club (Ivy A)'s)...The club decided to throw a cocktail affair, ever or I mean party, but up jumps a certain goil who has been used as the hilltopper's last stand and claims that the high school lads can't stand the cocktails, and so she has black-balled several of the K.T.M.'s and Scions and many other beer-slingers. "High school lads don't fit in good at a party of this sort." were the words of the spokesman of the meeting...Remember, gals youse can always get more gas out of an old Ford than youse can out of a new one... Mae Arrington is doing a bit of light sporting with Ace Rivera. Out to the Gardens and back and not a red dime for gas, but what does he (E.W.) care? There were pretty gals along. Rides, eats and fun for all six. C. C. Tand, Thelma King. E. Williams, R. Lightfoot and Percy Pitts, with Placide stringing along, or was it that way, sonnie? "It Happened One Night" has returned by popular demand, and if one must say it, McMilan Park is a sweet location for a scene like this...Julia Betts, Nancy Fountaine, with D. Harrod and R. N., were the parties concerned. Mush Mills couldn't make the grade, as he hasn't been in the swing for months and months... William Bullock called on Gerald Wilson the other night and promised not to do any tall block-balling when the K.T.M.'s throw their next hop...Oh yes, they speak now... So Jimmy D. and G.

Monickered "Wiggles" by his closest associates, Bill Thomas has an urge for the dramatic. Not only has William starred in thirty-tour amateur stage performances, in which he interpreted a number of different and difficult roles, but he has also written and produced a musical comedy. So successful has the gentleman been in the art of pretending, that he has even performed on Keith's circuit (in 1933 to be exact), and also in nine night clubs in the states of Ohio and Pennsylvania. A few years ago, Wiggles decided to settle down and marry a very charming little lady and from that blissful union—two little Thomases emerged. Others himself a college "trump" in that he has studied on three different campuses: to wit. Morrisntown, Clark and Howard universities. Dabbled with football and baseball while in school, and successfully earned letters in both sports. Among other honors ascribed to the Thomases' name are presidency of the Alpha Chapter of the Pi Sigma Iota honor fraternity in Morristown College and business manager of the Avalon Players. His one great just is an overwhelming desire for money (as whose isn't?) Bill is at present employed as a clerk in the D.C. school system—but avows that someday we shall all hear from him in the field of drama. And if confidence in one's ability is a vital asset towards achieving ultimate success and glory—we'll surely hear from William Wesley Thomas! Two of Washington's finer male specimens, viz.

RELIEF PROGRAM HERE IS FLAYED (Continued from page 1) mestic service and the amount of relief given. For instance, a colored woman receiving $12 every two weeks as relief is offered a place in a home for $6 every two weeks. Is it any wonder that relief is preferred to a wage which is so inadequate and which compels her to live on a scale far below the minimum of health and decency? Asked to Set Example Asked to Set Example "Further, we call attention to the exploit mandate of the works-relief bill, which sets a standard of $50 a month should be impartially applied to all applicants, regardless of race. "We are calling upon you to set the proper example for private employers, commerce and industry to follow. If the government, of which we are a part and which we are taxed to support, does not give us a fair deal, how can we expect such from private employers? President Roosevelt wishes the colored people of the District to have an equal opportunity and a new deal under their government. We request that you carry out the President's manadte." The commissioners were charged with setting up a caste system in matters of employment "in which you have practically eliminated colored workers from all classes of work which white people desire You have confined colored people in the main, to the lowest types of work and to the lowest scales of pay maintained." The commissioners were directly charged with partial dealings and banned for the present unrest among the colored population. The District heads were also told that groves were leaning toward Communism. Fascism and other radical forms because of the unfair treatment. Equality Demanded The group demanded nothing less than complete equality and asked that a Negro be placed in charge of the various setups that dealt with members of their race. Executive assistants and directors were demanded for the works division and that Negroes be placed in other positions of importance. Commissioner Allen denied that 5,000 domestics were dropped from relief rolls because they refused to take jobs paying less than one-half of relief money. He also denied that he was aware of segregation and jim Crow in the various departments of local government. He said that Negroes' failure to take civil service examinations was one cause for so few being placed in government jobs. Passes Buck He passed the responsibility of hiring caseworkers and relief supervisors to Miss Alice Hill relief director. Hiss Hill denied this charge when she was approached by a Tribune reporter several weeks ago. The meeting was held in the board room of the District Building with Commissioner Melvin Hazen in charge.

LACY White Maryland law enforcement officers are likely to think twice in the future before taking it upon themselves to be judge and jury in cases where Negroes are involved. The case of Charles W. Flory, white Bladensburg town cop, has taught them a lesson. Flory, who was acquitted by a jury of fellow-townmen on Monday of last week, probably went through several sleepless nights while awaiting his trial for manslaughter in connection with the slaying, last July of Kater Stevens, 942 P Street, Northwest, this city. He probably found sleep an elusive state at times despite his confidence that those men who had rubbed elbows with him in the Intended Robbery Out to be Copper Pair Who Meant to Rifle Po- Sheep's Clothing;' Wounded in H A case of mistaken identity caused the shooting to death of one man and the wounding of an- other last Saturday night when two men jumped on—of all things —a policeman. Lawrence - Halsted, 26, white rookie policeman attached to the vice squad working out of the Fourth Precinct Station, was attacked by the pair in an alley in the rear of the 400 block of First Street. Southwest. He was not in uniform at the time which led to the belief that his assailants did not know him. Complaints Filed Following numerous complaints from men of both races of being attacked and robbed after being lured into the alley, Officer Halsted was assigned to work the district in plain clothes. Having been on the force only one week, officials assumed that Halsted would be unknown to residents of the neighborhood.

Student Awarded "Bright Saying" Prize Miss Alberta Morton, 1029 Kenyon Street, Northwest, was awarded third prize of one dollar in a Bright Saying Contest sponsored by the editor of the women's page of the Times-Herald newspaper, last Wednesday afternoon.

Lawyer Forces Issue Flory was carried to trial, largely through the efforts of the youthful and militant Belford V. Lawson, NAACP attorney. He was made to face a court hearing despite an exoneration by a coroner's jury shortly after the shooting. He sat before the trial table and heard himself the object of scathing, burning accusations flung by a brother of the flesh, State's Attorney Alan Bowie this for the mere taking of a Negro's life. The defendant-copper was not surprised the verdict which freed him, but there could be no mistake—he and his brethren had taken at least a moral beating.

As he went into the thoroughfare behind the woman, Halsted was pounced upon by the two men. Struggling to his knees under the weight of the two men, the patrolman managed to draw his service revolver. With the first shot he felled one of the would-be robbers. The other. Halsted reported, was winged in the right shoulder as he turned and fled. Victim Identified The dead man was taken to the District Morgue where he was identified as Leroy Savoy, well known police character of no fixed address. Neither the woman in the case nor the other man have as yet been apprehended. A coroner's jury, Monday, exonerated Halsted for the killing. Its verdict held that the officer had committed justifiable homicide and fired in the line of duty. D.C. IS JIM-CROW CAPITAL OF U.S. The Federal Government is actively aiding to keep Washington the "Jim-Crow Capital" of the United States, according to an article by Marguerite Young. Washington correspondent, appearing in the current issue of New Masses. The Negro in Washington is segregated as in any town in the Black Belt; he is barred from shopping, eating, living in the "white section" of the city, and, with government departments leading, bears the brunt of economic discrimination, Miss Young asserts. "All Negroes, regardless of their work, are universally denied the right to eat in public places throughout the great central white business and residential section of Washington," Miss Young writes, although there is no legal segregation. "The Federal Government itself jim-crows Negroes in department dining rooms. In the Interior Department, a few peewee officials may eat with the whites, but the Negroes in the ranks dare not even try it." Dunbar Graduates Not to Use Cap and Gown Attire Despite the fact that Dunbar High School senior students voted in favor of the cap and gown attire for June graduation exercises, Principia Walter L. Smith announced this morning (Thursday) that graduates would wear the same style of dress as in former years. A vote taken at a meeting to determine the style of graduation attire showed the majority of seniors in favor of the cap and gown dress, according to Victoria Todd, president of the class. However, Principal Smith declared that the vote had to be unanimous before such a change would be made.

"Most of the many thousands of dollars which is garnered by that court in fines comes from pockets of Negro defendants. Not only that, according to the last census figures, the Negro constitutes more than 28 per cent of the population of the District, and they contribute daily to their share of citizens' burden in taxation and devotion to the common wealth. Negro "Forgotten Man" "In this Federal controlled city, the Democratic Party has an opportunity to demonstrate that the concepts of the New Deal are intended for America's original "forgotten man." the Negro, as well as for other elements in our population. "The young Negro who led in the revolt in '32. against the Republican chicanery and deceit, is watching the New Deal as it affects the Negro. He has not mortgaged his life to the Democratic Party, but is willing to continue its support only as long as the party demonstrates tangibly that it appreciates its support. "This administration could point to no greater achievement in the '36 campaign than to the appointment of a Negro to a place hitherto closed to them by their Republican predecessors here in the capital of the Nation." "I trust that you will use your good offices $t_0$ see that this request ripens into fruition by the appointment of a Negro to the vacancy in question."

That was the question on the lips of a crowded courtroom last Friday when the famous radio evangelist refused to take an oath on the Bible when it was handed to him. Even Justice Peyton Gordon before whom a $50,000 damage case against the elder was being tried, spoke of the Bible incident. Instead of taking the usual oath with his right hand on the Bible, Elder Michaux refused and the clerk affirmed the witness with the Bible. Elder Michaux merely stated that that same Bible teachers one must not swear In explaining to a Tribune reporter why he did not take the oath on the Bible Elder Michaux said the Bible states that one must not swear by Heaven as it's God's House or by the earth as it's His footstool or by the head as one cannot make "one hair black or white." The minister said this passage may be found in Matthews 5:31. The verse was read to the jury. The courtroom crowd was somewhat taken aback when the elder declined to follow the usual procedure since the Bible plays a large part in his radio sermons. MICHAUX WINNER OF ASSAULT SUIT (Continued from Page 1) Michaux paraded nearly a score of witnesses to the stand. Some dozen testified that Michaux never touched the man, but merely handed or threw his coat to him as Janitor Collins and James W. Jones, an employee of the bank, were escorting the man from the room. Lucas claimed that during the meeting he objected to certain procedure and insisted that a lengthy prayer by the Rev. J. H. Marshal' be dispensed with along with several unnecessary long speeches and the business of the meeting be addressed to. Forced From Meeting It was during an address by William Frazier, undertaker, that Lucas objected and sought to gain the attention of the chairman, Jesse Mitchell. Frazier allegedly yelled "put him out." During the confusion Elder Michaux arose and admonished the old man and told him that any man who objected to prayer was in danger of hall fire. As Lucas was being taken from the auditorium, he claimed Elder Michaux jumped from the 6-foot roost and began to push and strike him as he was held by Jones and Collins. As he neared the door, Lucas claimed the radio evangelist grabbed a bag which belonged to Lucas and threw it with such force that it struck him in the back causing serious injury. Thought Man Was Crank Some time later Lucas was forced to receive hospital treatment and undergo an operation. The man claimed that he was suffering with a herina and the injury received at the hands of Michaux aggrivated the trouble to such an extent that the operation was necessary. On the other hand Michaux and his witnesses stated that Lucas came to the meeting with the intention of breaking it up as several had heard him make such a remark. Michaux said he jumped from the platform, but not with the intention of interfering with Lucas, but he saw that the man had left a bag in the seat in which he was sitting and thinking that it might contain a bomb or a weapon, and believing that Lucas was a "crank" he thought the bag might contain some explosive. The elder said he has had considerable experience with "cranks" in public meetings. Bag Held Papers On finding the bag only held some harmless papers. Michaux said he placed it on a table and threw Lucas's coat to one of the men who were leading him out. Witnesses summoned by Lucas's attorneys included the Rev. E. C. Smith, Mrs. C. O. Smith, Mrs. J. Denmark, the Rev. J. H. Marshall, William McEntree, Lewis Coleman, Dr. Schley Brown and a representative from Emergency Hospital who testified that the rupture was allegedly caused by the rough treatment at the meeting. The Rev. Mr. Smith was out of the city and did not appear. The other witnesses claimed they saw the man struck and pushed by Michaux. Assault Denied Equally certain that Michaux never came within striking distance of the man were Mrs. Susie L. Saunders, Mr. Frazier, Henry Saunders, James W. Jones, the Rev. W. H. Jernagin and several others. The trial attracted considerable attention as Elder Michaux is nationally known through his famous radio church which broadcasts on a nation-wide hookup every morning. White and colored admirers of the minister attended the hearing. Lucas was represented by Attorney's Ernest C. Dickson and B. R. Coward while Atotrems Belford V Lawson, Jesse W. Lewis, Robert L Spivey and Edward A. Beaubian were counsel for Michaux. MISS TODD WINS ELKS' CONTEST MISS TODD WINS ELKS' CONTEST (Continued from page 1) torical contest_s invariably follow—into the hard present. Discusses Present Disregarding those things the history books tell about, she relied on her ability to tug at the hearts of her listeners with recitations of the deeds of today and yesterday, deeds that are fresh in the minds of all Negroes. She gambled and won. Miss Todd flayed the Alabama exclusion of Negroes from jury service; she assailed the barring of colored persons from Texas primaries; she ridiculed the persecution of her people in Louisiana, and described in vivid word-picture the horrors that were given new life with failure of the Costigan-Wagner anti-lynching legislation. All these things were raked by her for lack of constitutionality. Her conclusion was greeted with a storm of applause and an outburst of cheering on the part of a group of Dunbar students in the audience. Armstrong responded. There was no Cardozo demonstration. Hueston Urges Action Judge William C. Hueston, commissioner of education of the Improved. Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World. and sponsor of the contests followed the last contestant. He spoke briefly of the affair and wound up with an impassioned plea for whole-hearted Negro support to Negro advancement programs. Particular emphasis was placed on the need for educational furtherance and concerted demand for legislation from which there will be benefit derived by the race.

Two Points Set Forth The decision of the Supreme Court was based upon the exclusion of Negroes from jury service and the denial of constitutional rights under the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution, which were set forth in the following two points relied upon by counsel for Hollins: "1. The trial and conviction of a Negro by a jury of whites from which qualified Negroes are excluded solely on account of race or color, pursuant to established practice, is a denial of the equal protection of the law. "2. The court denied petitioner's constitutional rights in overruling his challenge to the array on the ground that qualified Negroes had been excluded from the jury panel solely on account of race or color."

GEORGETO States Supreme Court, changed that Hollins had been denied constitutional' rights when the lower court overruled his objections to the appeal to race prejudice by the prosecuting attorney in their arguments to the jury. The Criminal Court of Arkansas of Oklahoma, in its first opinion, the case held that the objections raised by counsel for the defendant during the trial to the arguments by state attorney sustained by the court. The record of the proceedings showed that the objections were overruled and the court wrote another objection in which the decision of the lower court was affirmed The wide scope of the opinion handed down in the famous "Scottsboro cases," if applied in the State of Oklahoma, should mean much toward the sourcing of the death knell to the exclusion of persons from jury service because of race or color.

WEEK ENDING MAY 18, 1935 A Good Sign Some 50 ministers representing every denomination in Washington crowded into the Board Room of the District Building last Tuesday to protest against discrimination and segregation in the relief setup here. The sight of this group convinced the commissioners, that the ministry here is certainly united on the position of inadequate relief and work relief. The Tribune some weeks ago called attention to the power of mass protest and urged Negroes to use this weapon as a means of protest. Delegations of two or four do not mean anything any more. The sight of hundreds marching to the authorities not only has its effect on the officers appealed to, but creates a public sympathy that is stronger than anything else. More power to the preachers in this fight.

When Germany made public what was perfectly well understood long ago, that, disregarding the treaty of Versailles, she would increase her army and naval strength to the full extent necessary for national defense alarm was expressed in every Chancery in Europe England's Sir John Simon visited Hitler. The first much-advertised meeting having been called off by "Der Fuerher" on the excuse of a bad cold, on the second trip Sir John undertook to have Hitler unite in the proposed accord and mutual understanding with England, France and Italy to insure the peace of Europe and therefore of all the world. In the very opening of the conversations Hitler calmly announced that Germany had "Rearmed." Obviously this amazing disclosure destroyed all need for further conversation. One of the inducements to be held out to Germany was to be a proposal for treaty revision to the end that the Allies would agree for some increase in Hitler's navy and army. Sir John returned to London. Soon came the news that Germany was undertaking the construction of a fleet of 250-ton U-boats. This news in connection with the information that Germany already has 10,000 war-worthy planes and is increasing her fleet at the rate of 800 planes a week, is thought to have wrecked plans for the scheduled Anglo-German naval conversation in May. Instantly France, Italy, even Russia announced expansion of their war machines and the race was on. Our concern is manifest. The far-off days of our national isolation are only fond memories. War seems indeed inevitable. Can we prevent being drawn into this mad and deadly feud? There is, of course, no sentiment in the United States for war, but, even as nearly 20 years ago, we may be forced to take up arms. Why this unusual unrest? Truly the World is out of joint. Earthquakes, floods, drought, famine, starvation, even as in China forcing the famished people to eat the flesh of their own dead, small wonder that in his dire extremity man turns easily to the lure of war. Despite all the alarms and the savage beating of the Drums of Hate, let us hope and pray that the war clouds may pass over and that in the sunshine of coming happy days of restored prosperity, the nations of the earth may one and all "Beat their swords into plow-shares, their spears into pruning hooks" and practice war no more. We often reach our successes by digging through our failures—just those who dig. Chicago judge restrains a man from hypotizing his wife. That proves the old saying: "There ain't no justice." A poll of the Senate and House finds all present, or otherwise accounted for on the payroll. Although the Texas Primary decision reached by unanimous concurrence of the nine Justices, nevertheless the fact that Judge Roberts was chosen as mouthpiece, indicates that he must have played a leading role in advocating and bringing about of this decision. The Negro is certainly no better off under Justice Roberts than he would have been under Justice Parker. In a recent release I recalled how the colored people, under the leadership of the N.A.A.C.P. united as they have never done before or since, in effective protest against the confirmation of Judge J. J. Parker, nominated by President Hoover as Justice of the Supreme Court. There are two things for which Mr Hoover's administration was pronounced and prominent—first, his proness to foster wealth and power and second, his coolness and indifference towards the political rights of the colored race. Judge Parker was supposed to reflect both of these attitudes in the superlative degree. His outspoken attitude against the constitutional rights of the Negro aroused the whole race in antagonism against his confirmation. On the other hand, his judicial decisions in favor of capital against labor, marked him as the avowed enemy of the toiling world. The organized labor forces of the nation, with such political influence as they could command, were solidly arrayed against his confirmation. For once the rights of the Negro and the demands of labor were united in a common cause. Judge Parker owes his defeat to the combination of these two influences. There was little understanding or sympathy between these component forces which produced a common resultant. Each while pursuing its own end, found itself reenforced and strengthened by the other.

JUDGE PARKER SPANKS NEGRO AND LABOR President Hoover substituted the name of Justice Roberts for that of Judge Parker to fill the vacancy on the Supreme Bench. Perhaps it would not be fair to say that the President, on purpose and forethought, had in mind to rebuke both the Negro and the laboring man by this substitution, but it turns out that way. Justice Roberts was chosen as the mouthpiece for the deliverance of the Texas Primary decisions which sanctions race distinction if not race discriminator n the franchise. The practical affect of this decision will be to eliminate the Negro from participation in the selection of persons to be voted for, under Federal sanction, the same as hittope prevailed, sheer chicanery. It gives judicial sanction to a sinister procedure. Although this decision was reached by unanimous concurrence of the nine Justices nevertheless the fact that Judge Roberts was chosen as mouthpiece, indicates that he must have played a leading role in advocating and bringing about this decision.

Justice Roberts up to the Railroad decision, formed the balance of judgement between the four conservatives and avowed progressives on the Supreme Bench. He has thrown the weight of his judgement on the side of the progressives producing the famous five to four decisions which have upheld President Roosevelt's "New Deal." He was universally extolled by the labor and liberal forces. But in the "Pension Act" which is perhaps more critical of the "New Deal" than any other issue that has been brought to the Supreme Court, Justice Robert's judgement turned the scale from the side of labor to that of capital. The decision was still five to four vote but its tenor is in reverse. The Administration which had hitherto looked to the Supreme Court as salvator of the "New Deal" stands bewildered as to the attitude of Judge Roberts on other measures which may spell the success or doom of its policies. The laboring world stands, aghast and is threatening a constitutional amendment which would make legislation in its behalf proof against the Supreme Bench. On the other hand, capital is jubilant and has already mentioned Justice Roberts as a fitting candidate for the Presidential nomination on the Republican or Capitalistic ticket.

PARKER HAS THE LAUGH ON OPPONENTS It would indeed be interesting if some psychologist could reveal the train of thought and flood of feeling now sweeping through the soul of Judge J. J. Parker over the discomfiance which his supplantor has produced in both camps of those who opposed his confirmations. While it is not proper to condemn or denounce a Judge as to his opinion however detrimentally it may affect one's own interest for the time being, nevertheless, it is hard to hold human nature in restraint when feelings and interest are adversely affected. The four conservative Justices who have stood for capitalism must be credited with the same honesty of purpose as their five conferees who have upheld the opposite view. Justice Roberts is entitled to the same credit for honesty and integrity in the Texas Primary decisions and the Railroad Pension Act as in the other instances when he lined up with Chief Justice Hughes and the three other liberal minded members of the Bench, but he can hardly expect the Negro to extoll him for the Texas Primary Decision or the laboring man in the Railroad Pension case.

HOOVER MAY ENJOY A HEARTY GRIN All of this but goes to indicate how insecure are hopes and expectations which rest upon the basis of a majority vote of nine men, any one of whom may have the deciding say. A five to four decision is a very slender basis for the hopes and expectations of Democracy. In the meantime, Parker and Roberts will occupy a large place in the musings of the Negro and of the laboring man. Had Parker been confirmed would it have been different? Would it have been worse or would it have been better? President Hoover, the defeated and disappointed exponent of wealth and power, is doubtless contemplative in his Palo Alto isolation and is indulging in a reminiscent laugh over the discomfiture of the Negro and the laboring man who brought about the defeat of his North Carolina nominee.

Us $75 a month is too much to pay local N.A.A.C.P. secretary. The Editor: One of the reasons why the Washington branch of the N.A.A.C.P. can never do anything is because the treasury is always drawn to pay the secretary. It should be a public branch that Mr. Pinkett charges $75.00 per month as salary, plus $15.00 office rent and extra for telephone. The strength of the N.A.A.C.P. has been ability to obtain volunteer service from interested people. Mrs. McGuire as president of the branch serves without pay; so does Mr. Mikinson its treasurer, and all other workers except Mr. Pinkett. Mr. Pinkett is the only on salary. Since he is on salary you would expect him to do more for the branch and the Negro cities of Washington than any other member of the branch.

M. Campbell Field Agent U.S. Department of Agriculture Extension Service Today, 4-H Club work is recognized as a medium through which rural young people may become more intelligent farmers and homemakers. When Extension Work began among Negroes in 1906, it was the accepted policy to work almost wholly with adults, 4-H Club work being a secondary development. But Negro children naturally followed in the footsteps of their parents in the practice of better farm and home methods, so that in 1914 when the Smith-Lever act passed, additional funds were provided to help strengthen and reinforce that portion of work being done. Now at the end of twenty years a comparatively large number of boys and girls have passed the 4-H Club age limit, have married and are now demonstrating to their neighbors and to the public at large that they can execute a more profitable farm and home program than did their forebears. Not An Easy Task This is by no means an easy task when it is considered that a large percentage of the parents of these Negro children, year after year, mortgage all of their personal property for funds to make their crops. Such transactions often force them to engage in unprofitable farm practices. Negro 4-H Club members, despite their many handicaps become distinct assets to the communities in which they live. The three hundred and twenty-six Negro Farm and Home Demonstration Agents now employed represent a dynamic force in the lives of these young The Lyric Voice BY COLEMAN G. DUCKETT What is poetry? So jesting Pilate asked concerning Truth.... and turned away without pausing for a reply. But if a song reveals to you some bit of Beauty heretofore unperceived or unrealized, that is Poetry, whether you find it in Shakespeare, or in the ephemeral pages of your weekly newspaper. THE LYRIC VOICE "What would you have, two friends of old?" Life asked; we named our choice: "O keep your worldly gift of gold, And give us just—The Lyric Voice!" The Lyric Voice has been to him A blessing—or a careless curse. He sings upon an idle whim. Always with laughter in his verse; The Lyric Voice has been to me An agony of the deepest dyes... I sing an endless threendoy By Mercedes Moore It rained—and so her silken skirt Was raised with care to keep it dry: All that her tarnished soul had made. For that one garment had been paid: A soul, you see, is cheap as dirt. But dresses come so very high! The Petrarchan sonnet fares very well at the hands of this Baltimore devottee of that difficult verse-form. There is the tragedy of finality in the concluding couplet: By Charles Mason Brown And now I'm facing homeward by that star you set high in my firmament of love; Time, the fabled healer, cannot prove A foil for yearning to be where your are. Nor distance, nor long wandering, a bar To agony; nor crowded cities move Me but to weep and turn again to rove, Seeking for what was always near, afar. I know a flower-plot, with roses growing; I know a girl as brown as sun- scorched corn; I have come humbly back to reap my sowing. But all my buds lie wilting here, forlorn— I never saw, in travelling, weeds so tall. As these that climb about our garden wall! (To the readers of this column: If you like "The Lyric Voice" and wish to see it continue to appear in these pages, write to the con- ductor of the column and tell him so.) Suppose We Tried The Golden Rule By Alice Dunbar Nelson (For A.N.P.) Did you ever think what would happen if the whole world—at least that part of it which claims to be civilized...suddenly remembered and lived by the Golden Rue? "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." The homely and literal translation. Suppose everybody stopped what he was getting ready to do and wondered if he would like it done to him? Millenium? Maybe, but not wholly. A world infinitely more gracious and easy to live in. And it would not be a messy. people. They spend the nights in the homes, converse with them in their own simple language about their problems; they encourage the parents to educate their children and supply practical farm and home plans for the family. The case of Bilbo Wiley, a 19-year-old club boy of Wiggins, Miss. is a concrete example of the effectiveness of 4-H Club work. Buy Nets Profit of $105 On September 19, 1933, Wiley planted 6,000 cabbage plants on land that had been thoroughly prepared according to the County Agent's recommendations. On January 12, 1934, he began selling hard head cabbage to the local market. When his crop was harvested he had received $130.85. The total expense of operation was $25.45, leaving a net profit of $105.40. On March 13, Wiley planted the same plot after harvesting the cabbage to corn and in the month of June he sold $36.50 worth of roasting ears. In the middle of his corn rows he planted crowder peas. Of this crop he sold $12.75 worth of green peas. He received from his corn and peas $49.25. Expenses of operation $11.60, leaving a net total of $37.65. Net profit from the three crops—cabbage, corn and peas was $143.95. Wiley has paid his entrance fee to college and has bought two Jersey milk cows, paying part down and selling milk from the cows to meet his payments, and at the same time paying his current school bills. In proportion as 4-H Club methods are disseminated among boys and girls, things that are objectionable in our old methods of farming are gradually passing away. syrup world, as some would have us think. It could be as virile as one would wish, and yet a world worth living in and carrying on to another generation. I sat once in a. conference of pacifists. We have been for two months studying the technique of pacifism. The legal limitations or armaments; the requisite number of soldiers, ships, fortresses, airplanes. Mind you, we were pacifists, yet we were discussing, with a great show of legal technique, just how much we would allow each nation to arm in ordrtr to preserve peace. And I was tired. Bored. We had struggled through legalities and technicalities for two months, meeting once weekly. And my head ached this day, and I yawned and suggested. "How about trying the Golden Rule once, wouldn't that settle it?" (Nothing makes a Christian madder than to suggest that he usa the foundation of his faith.) Wherefore I was put out of the class incontinently as being a simple-minded soul, incapable of understanding the higher and finer things of life. But now, would it not be an answer to the query of armaments? Let each nation do as it would each other nation to do, no more, less, then each could arm until it burst or went bankrupt, and nobody would mind but the bankers, and they living by the Golden, Rule would do as they would be done by, and end the whole business. Hints on TUBERCULOSIS By T. THEO PARKER Halitosis (bad breath) is a very common ailment. The teeth and stomach are usually regarded as the source of the trouble, while the nostrils are never suspected. Halitosis is a prominent symptom of deep-seated nasal catarrh—a condition which makes one extremely susceptible to tubercular infection. The nostrils be the principal avenues through which tubercle bacilli and other bacteria enter the system, individuals should always be concerned about the health of their nostrils. The average individual may not know that the protective mechanism, and germicidal secretion of the healthy nostrils make it impossible for tubercle bacilli to live in or pass through the passages into the system. The nasal passages being winding, the inspired air is brought into contact with the surface of the mucous membrane which lines them throughout. Embedded in this membrane, are millions of tiny glands which constantly secrete an oily and sticky liquid. Germs and microbes which enter the nostrils with the inspired air are trapped in this liquid similarly as flies in mosses. On the surface of the said membrane are countless minute hair-like projections called "Cilia." these, by their constant wave-like motions, sweep out the germs from the passages. Further, this mucous membrane is so sensitive that the slightest irritation from the presence of germs or excessive dust stimulates an increased flow of secretion which floods the passages and helps to expel the intruders. Healthy nostrils therefore, afford one of the greatest protections against tubercular infection. A weeping tree in Mobile. Alabama. is in tears again. A plant authority says it is from a premature rising of sap. Duncan, Oklahoma has constructed a new polo field where a dozen players and 30 ponies practice regularly.

Alto Hospital and where Mr. Babcock is convalescing and well on the road to recovery, according to latest bulletin from the hospital. It will also interest Government Employees to know that Congressman Cochran of Missouri is confined to Naval Hospital on account of a nervous break down. Congressman Cochran, it will be recalled, prides himself on the fact that he is the father of the notorious Section 212 of the Economy Act known as the marital provision. Perhaps the Congressman as a youngster became frightened at some very efficient woman and never sufficiently recovered or revised his thinking in the matter of a woman's "place being in the home." The American Federation of Government Employees is particularly fortunate in having as one of its members William H. Hastie, Assistant to the Solicitor, Interior Department. In addition to his duties in the Interior Department, he is one of our most outstanding local lawyers, instructor in the Howard Law School, head of the legal council of the New Negro Alliance of which he is the Assistant Administrator, a member of the executive committee of the D.C. Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and a columnist of note. Speaking at the first public meeting of Lodge No. 184, American Federation of Government Employees, on last Thursday night at the Dunbar High School, Mr. Hastie pointed out the urgent necessity of making a survey of discrimination against Negroes under Civil Service by carefully documenting seventy-five or a hundred boni fide cases of discrimination and placing a copy of this report in the hands of the President of the United States, members of his cabinet, heads of the several independent establishments, and every Senator and Congressman. The initial steps have already been taken to make this survey and blanks will be ready for distribution next week. This column will run a copy of the blank in its next issue. Now that the Honorable Armond W. Scott has been confirmed as Municipal Judge, we expect fewer speeches by his predecessor, Judge Cobb, exhorting Negroes to eschew radicalism, communism, etc. If there is a definite trend toward radicalism by Negro citizens, there are numerous reasons for it, and this columnist thinks that Judge Cobb would be doing a far greater service to discover the causes and point them out to those responsible for them and wage an aggressive campaign for their eradication. Studying the Constitution and the fundamentals upon which our Country was founded as Judge Cobb suggests, will only serve in intensify the Negroes' resentment. * * * * * * Washingtonians who professed surprise at the exclusion of Negroes from Jury panels throughout the deep South, would do well to give thought to the District of Columbia where all too few Negroes are included on its panels, notwithstanding the fact that Washington boasted of a mixed jury as far back as the year 1869 when Millie Gaines was tried for the murder of a white man. The jury was composed of six colored and six white. The Washington Bar Association recently brought the matter of Negroes being included on jury panels to the attention of Chief Justice Alfred A. Wheat, of the D.C. Supreme Court, pointing out the fact that, at the present time all the jurors on the panels of the criminal courts of the District are white. The committee from the Bar Association is composed of Edward P. Lovett, chairman; Henry Lincoln Johnson Jr., Dr. Charles H. Houston, James G. Tyson and Nelson H. Nichols. We have been anxiously awaiting the remainder of the series of articles by a local Negro Weekly exposing the modus operandi of the selection of the jury panels and also police brutalities. Since the first article appeared April 13th and none has appeared since, we are wondering if the paper has been "bought off" or something. However, we think not, and we trust the entire series will follow with their facts and figures which will undoubtedly prove illuminating to the readers of Washington. It is especially gratifying to note that the Baptist Ministers' Conference of Norfolk has selected a special committee to make a careful study of trade union organization and colored worker. It is planned to have other labor leaders appear before the special committee prior to completing the final report for the conference. Flays Industrial Schools of the South HORNE SAYS ALL COULD BE SCRAPPED WITHOUT LOSS In the May issue of Opportunity magazine Dr. Frank Horne, acting principal of Fort Valley Normal and Industrial School, claims that all the industrial schools of the south, with the possible exception of Tuskegee and Hampton, "could practically all be scrapped without appreciable loss to anyone." In support of his contention, he quotes Edwin R. Embree, who said in an article in the Survey Graphic, "these institutions are chiefly devoted to the preparation of teachers and to pretty sloppy courses in 'agriculture and the mechanical arts.'" "Not only the land-grant schools are proving ineffectual in adjusting their students to present-day industrial life, but also most of the private institutions and public secondary schools as well. Practically all of the private institutions are following the trend of the land-grant schools—placing emphasis upon the academic and cultural features of their programs at the expense of the industrial. "The students have generally come to look upon the industrial courses as designed for those who are incompetent to meet the exacting demands of the liberal curriculum. For the most part, the students dabble about under incompetent instructors, with obsolete equipment and vague objectives. "In teaching agriculture, it is the rare school indeed whose records display an efficient, economically managed farm run by the 'agriculturist,' In fact, I am convinced that except for the appeal to northern and southern philanthry inherent in the names 'agricultural' and in 'industrial,' many private schools would have long since dropped the appellations and the courses from their curricula. "The 'mechanical arts' are little more than manual training, while 'home economics' goes little beyond the rudiments of cooking and sewing with primitive equipment, with much idle time spent in 'handicraft.' "Factual evidence of students actually earning their living from school learned industries is so rare as to be almost negligible. Here and there a sparkling exception of a school teaching thoroughly and effectively a few industrial subjects proves the exception to the rule." Dr. Horne continued: has in wishing for Mr. E.

Webb deals with the story of Susan Pierce who always admired Jeffrey Allen as a playmate, but his numerous, although entirely harmless, escapades forced her to question seriously whether he had the stability she wanted in a husband. Jeffrey was handsome and charming and had enough money to be comfortable. For him life had always been smooth, inviting and pleasant. Living was fun; life was a game, and Jeff loved to play it vigorously. He loved Susan deeply, but his happy-go-lucky nature did not permit him to be ostensibly sincere even about this, until serious-minded Clark Fielding and irresponsible but lovely Nancy Collins began to provide complications and difficulties, which made Jeff realize that he had been taking Susan much too for granted. Against a glamorous and shifting background climaxed by the thrilling, spectacular action of an international horse show—these four people daily pursue love, life and one another, culminating in an unexpected denouement brought about by the irristible twins, Jack and Jill.

Maybe you thought it was the "King (beg pardon, the Queen) in her Counting House, counting out her money." It wasn't. The Y.W.C.A. is celebrating its thirtieth anniversary and any night you happen in you'll find some kind of committee or something playing its role in the party. And so, on this particular Friday night the Residence Committee, under the leadership of jolly Mrs. Cromwell (J.W. of Swan St.) had met to count the contents of a lot of calico bags. You've seen 'em and probably dropped some dimes in 'em too) The happy crowd sat around the tables, smiles growing brighter as pennies piled higher. You'd have thought 'twas their birthday instead of the old Y.W.'s. A cake had been baked for the winner and it turned out that Mrs. Pollard's calico bags boasted the biggest amount. But when they offered her the cake she was much too sweet to take it and handed it to the Chairman (Mrs. Cromwell). She wouldn't keep it either. Instead, she suggested in a very pretty manner "Let the whole Committee eat it." And they did Mrs. Gregoria Goines directed the Y.W.C.A. orchestra in its rendition of several interesting numbers. A woman said some funny poems and then somebody started telling fortunes. One guest (a widow) was told that she'd surely marry again. And now all the other ladies are looking for more cake (the kind they make for brides). "Twas an enjoyable evening, profitably spent. And everybody knows that when Washington calls the roll of its charming women, civic and welfare workers will occupy a great big space. Among those present were: Mrs. Julia West Hamilton, Mrs. Susie Cook, Mrs. Dollie Reed, Mrs. I. S. Lee, Mrs. Barnett, Mrs. Norwood, Mrs. Wesley, Mrs. Norris and many more. "To bob, or not to bob" will be a bothersome question as long as we see so many lovely exponents of both ideas. When we run across Miss Gladys Mauridin with her locks becoming colled in a tricky little bun beneath her brown, tan-trimmed hat, we swear that "shears that cut locks shall never clour ours." When we get a glimpse of bobbed-haired Affrieda (Mrs. Pitts of Fifteenth St.) we rush to the nearest barber and beg, "Mister, please cut off the curls." But the bad thing about it is that we may worry ourselves bald-headed before we finally figure out whether it's better to bob or not to. It's those '22's again (Howard University Law class of 1922). The minute they seem all settled in this big job or that (and you sit back on the side lines and try to concentrate on the deeds of Mr. B who came out in '23. or maybe Mr. D) some smart '22-er will jump right out from the place where you left him last and land on a higher plane. Take Tenola Graves, for instance. When you heard of him last he was justice-of-the-peac-ing in the State of Indiana. That's still his job, but right now he's busily packing his bags for a trip to the Western Coast. (Indiana's Governor picked him out to help represent that State at the San Diego Exposition.)

In whites and 19 to 49 body's eye at a fashionable affair the other Sunday night. And she did it with white gardenias. She had fastened the lovely flowers to a taffeta frill that stood high a round her neck and you'll never guess the pretty effect the simple gesture had on the lady's long black dress. Speaking of gardenias, three gorgeous ones (right off the bush) adorned the left shoulder of Miss Clyde Johnson at a recent party. And the nice thing about it is. that the Friendly Flower Shop. from which the flowers came, claims the pleasant Clyde as its smart proprietress. "Twas Mothers' Day and the daughter of a very lovely mother looked longingly at the windows of a U Street Gift Shop. Every type of gift was there, but the daughter's pocketbook was bare. So she wended her sad steps homeward. Suddenly she remembered a tiny sample box of candy a merchant had given her just the day before. She remembered too, some honey a neighbor had kindly sent her. She made a pretty package of the candy and the honey and laid it in the mother's lap, saying softly as she did it. "Sweets to the Sweet." Among all the gifts the mother received there was none she prized more highly than the "Sweets to the Sweet." Mentioning Mothers' Day reminds us how fitting it was that Miss Marie Hardwick should have spent that day in Washington near the scene of her long and faithful service. For more than twenty years that dear little lady lived in old Miner Hall and "mothered" the hundreds of pretty coeds of Howard University. Youthful in spirit and still in love with the world, Miss Hardwick was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. James Hackney, of 1130 Seventh Street. Northeast College walls are dear to Miss Hardwick yet, so she lives in Morgan Park. Baltimore, where she can "stand by the side of the road and be a friend" to the boys and girls that go to Morgan College. A voice Washington has been missing much too long is again being heard in the city. It belongs to Mr. Ernest J. Davis up from Tuskegee, Alabama for a few days with his family.

When the angels (or whoever it is that parcel's 'em out) were handling smiles around Mrs. Gladys Green, 122 S Street, was right in line to get hers. At a pretty party the other day that smile was really eye-arresting. Maybe the fact that her hair is black, and the dress she wore had a yellow note helped the smile along. Anyway it made you play a spade when you meant to play a heart. Sick and distressed friends of Mrs. Ella Wesley Parker are hoping she'll have another -out-of-town caller soon. For it seems that so big is Mrs. Parker's heart she can't even show newcomers the city without remembering that shut-ins also enjoy a drive. So you got a squeeze too last Thursday between 6 and 7 p.m. (There you go thinking of your love-adeove-dove). I'm talking about traffic and that "sea of humanity" that moved slowly past after Car dozo won the drill. A cartoonist Mr. J. B. Davidson, of Philadelphia (formerly of Washington) was in the crowd (came down to see his son perform). And now everybody's hoping he got away with his right arm good and safe. For, if there's anything a lot of us do enjoy, when scanning the morning or evening napers, it's a downright good cartoon. Wouldn't it be nice if those Mississippiians would let Alice come back for a visit this summer? They took her to their hearts (when she married Dr. Albert Dumas of Natchez) and made her so happy and comfortable she hasn't worried a bit about Washington since.

SOCIAL HIGHLIGHTS "The Three Wishes," Marioette Play, Held at Shaw Junior By Gertrude Parthenia McBrown The Shaw Junior High School presented an adaption of Tony Sarg's marionette play, "The Three Wishes," Friday. Miss Alma Thomas who created the marionettes, arranged and staged "The Three Wishes," wrote her Master's thesis at Columbia University on "The History of Marionettes." Later she received a diploma from Tony Sarg, the greatest modern authority on marionettes. The story of marionettes runs back through thousands of years of history.Little figures that once contributed to the amusement of audiences of ancient Greece, Rome and other civilizations have been found again and again. In France, England, Italy and Germany they held the stage for centuries to the point of practically excluding human actors. The very human-like actors in "The Three Wishes," the artistic scenery and the carefully designed stage evidenced throughout the excellent work Miss Thomas is doing with "The Marionette Theatre." The puppeteers in the play were Martin, a woodcutter; George White; Margaret, his wife, HarWalker Other persons in the cast were Bernard Johnson and Arthur Gross. Stage technician, George Marmon.

Socially speaking, it drew quite an assembly of people from all circles—and we can say that Washington can point to many. The weather was ideal though cool winds blew up as the shadows appeared. "Twas quite an interesting sight to sit on the sidelines and observe the many personalities and the pictures presented as hours passed drawing the memorable day to a close. First of all, who could sit and listen to the wild cheering of those loyal boys and girls and not be reminded of those dear old high school days of years gone by and wish for them back again? Then, too, it was gratifying to see the social spirit which prevailed in the box sections. As the hour grew near for the dress parade, our new Congressman Arthur W. Mitchell appeared on the scene, accompanied by his secretary, Claude Holman. He was escorted to the official box, where Mr. and Mrs. Garnet C. Wilkinson, Judge Armond J. Scott and several others were seated. After introductions were completed, the party conversed agreeably until Mr. Mitchell was summoned by Captain Arthur Newman and together keeping time to the beat of the drum, an inspection of all the companies was made by them. Just before inspection, Superintendent Frank Ballou was ushered to the box and introduced. While the official box presented this picture, other boxes were equally as popular with a handshake here and a "how-do-you-do" there. F. E. Parks and Roscoe Evans were outstanding in their role of having charge of the seating. The decision, when it came, was quite deplorable to the overconfident Dunbar rooters, but to Cardozo, which won first prize, it was glorious. Mr. Mattingly, the principal of Cardozo, sitting in a box to the left of the official box, was all smiles as he was besieged with congratulations and handshakes. Armstrong, too, was jubilant over second and third prizes. Another drill day becomes only a memory. Friday evening was marked by the pretty dance given by the Omega Psi Phi fraternity at the Masonic Temple. Spring was evident as one caught a glimpse of the beautiful and artistic flower garden in the center of the hall.

Parker-Gray School News For years the Negro Citizens of Alexandria have been working for another school in the southern part of the city and for a full fledge high school for their children. A great step toward satisfying this desire was made last week when the principal and teachers were assigned for the Lyles-Crouch School, which is to open its door next September. A building is being re-conditioned in the center of the population of the southern section of the city, which will provide eight or ten modern classrooms. When the building is put in operation it will take practically 300 pupils from the long over-crowded Parker-Gray building, and make room for the four year high school program at the older building. Teachers for the schools of this section are: Parker-Gray School Wesley D. Elam; principal; A.W. Adkins, Marie T. Butler, Ellen E. Carter, Leola R. Carter, Althea Dodson, Laura M.

The Value of "Intangibles" NO MILKMAN lives by plant and equipment alone. Along with the substance of his business he requires certain "intangibles" Routes, for example. Ower a period of years milk routes become well established. They define the milkman's market. In a very real sense they constitute the capacious circulatory system by which the milkman, the farmer, and the citizen are sustained. The value of milk routes issues from the fact that they signify a daily outlet to enough customers to make regular delivery economically feasible. Ordinarily, the greater the number of customers and the smaller the area serviced, the lower the cost of delivery. Milk routes have no public identity like the city's highways and byways. To cover these straight lines, twistings and turnings of the daily "demand" is the milkman's business. What they are worth quickly shows up on the company's books.
