Crutchfield, a government messenger, on trial for second-degree murder, was acquitted in Criminal Court of the District of Columbia Supreme Court, Monday. the jury returning a verdict of justifiable homicide. Crutchfield shot and killed John Ingram at 1828 E Street, Northwest. April 19. Crutchfield and his common-law wife were in a heated argument when Ingram interfered and was shot. It was shown by prosecution that the couple entered their bedroom that night about 11 p.m. and found Ingram lying across the foot of their bed. Ingram, who had been drinking, hearing the argument, swore at Crutchfield and told him with vile oaths that he would not stand for his hitting Annie—meaning Crutchfield's wife. He is also said to have advanced toward Crutchfield in a threatening manner; and the latter, thinking he was in danger of bodily harm, seized a shotgun and fired one shot into Ingram's body, killing him. The defense attorney set up a plea of self-defense. Crutchfield told a story that agreed in substance with the story he told the police the night of the tragedy. With a number of character witnesses, James A. O'Shea. white, defense attorney, made an eloquent appeal to the jury, telling them that Crutchfield was in his own home and did not have to "greatest one inch," and that his client believed Ingram meant to do him bodily harm, and so believing, had a right to defend himself. The jury returned its verdict in less than an hour. DAVID MEADOWS FOUND GUILTY OF MURDER BY JURY Slayer of Alfred Jordan Is Convicted of Second-Degree Murder David Meadows, 35. 2317 H Street.

March 6, the latter dying at Freedmen's Hospital a few hours later. At the trial it was shown that Meadows and Juanita Jordan, Alfred Jordan's sister, had been living together as man and wife, and Meadows intended to break off the relationship. Early the night of the tragedy he met Juanita and after drinking together they went to a house in the 300 block of Florida Avenue, Northwest, to play poker. Soon after arriving there Juanita persuaded Meadows that he was too drunk to play. He stopped and gave her $500 to continue in his stead. She took the money but dropped out of the game. Meadows asked her to return the $5. She refused and out in the street they got into an argument and a struggle for the money. Alfred Jordan appeared on the scene and knocked Meadows down. While still on the ground Meadows was allegedly kicked by Jordan. Juanita objected. Meadows, getting away from Jordan, went to 1622 First Street, Northwest, and returned with a butcher knife. He stabbed Jordan if the thigh; and also cut Ethel Tucker another sister of Jordan. Price 5 Cents Washington and Vicinity. Elsewhere 7 Cents The Winner Smiles JOE LOUIS JOE FARREN JR.

U.S. SURVEY SHOWS WOMEN UNDERPAID Women in Four Cities Earn An Average of $8 a Week Changing styles of hairdressing and beauty culture have resulted in a spectacular increase during the past 15 years in the number of beauty shops and of women employed in such work. This fact is pointed out in a recently published study of employment conditions of women in this occupation by the Women's Bureau, U.S. Department of Labor. The survey, made in the winter and early spring of 1934, covered 390 shops employing some 1,500 white employees, including almost 200 men, and 75 shops employing about 150 Negro women, in four cities—Philadelphia, New Orleans, St. Louis and Columbus. (Ohio). Most of the beauty shops visited were small—the typical shop in the survey employing no more than three operators. In Negro shops, shampooing and hair pressing (straightening) were the chief services offered, with marceling next in importance. Quite pronounced differences were found in the occupations of the men and women employees. While the great majority of the white women and almost all of the Negro women were all-around operators performing all these services for cus-See COOL COOKING, page 2 Norris, Scottsboro al from Death Cell tourt for Two of the Youngest has Been Scheduled for Week in July al Labor Defense, had obtained a court order for the transfer of Haywood Patterson.

On April 1, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed the death sentences against Patterson and Norris. The decision had the effect of voiding the indictments, drawn up at Scottsboro in 1931, under which all nine boys have been held. (Continued on Page 2) News of Nearby Virginia 26 CHURCH CLUBS MRS.

He is headed straight for the highest rung on the pugilistic ladder—the world’s heavyweight championship, Tonight, Tuesday, fighting before the biggest crowd in his sensa- tional but brief fistie career, the 21-year-old Michigan mauler who was christened Joseph Louis Bar row. js not in the least perturbed as he faces his huge opponent, Primo Carnera, who outweighed him by 60% pounds. The perfect tan brown of Louis’s marvelous physique is a beautiful human spec imen in the glaring lights that shine on the squared circle pitched near second base in Colonel Rup- pert’s ballyard, Some 67,000 fren zied fans roar an acclaim as he is introduced. Louis just nods his head. He does not smile. They said before the fight that Louis lacked sufficient ex: perience to outwit the Ponder- ‘ous Primo. But vo one. sus: peets that such a statement is true tonight. The workman: ship of the Brown Bomber in the ring ig smooth and shows unmistakable traces of perfec- tion in comparison with the awkward, cumbersome, stumb- ling and powerless fighter that is Carnera. With only 54 amateur contests and 22 pro- fessional fights under his belt Louis has reached a glorious position in the fistic world Jack Blackburne, a wise and formidable fighter of an ear- lier day, has polished and sharpened the rough edges on the Detroit fighting machine. and, as he stalks the giant Carnera jn his pantherish man: ner out in the ring, he is po tentially the best heavyweight of the era. His dead pan ex- Pression which has been talked about so much, apparently, is one of instinct. No otker heavyweight can hit as fast as Louis, No other heavy- weight can let go a punch with- out velegraphing it and have some- thing on it—something that forces the opponent's reality to the fact that he has been socked when the biow lands: Louis has the knack of hitting with almost blinding speed from any angle. He feints. shuffles, then works the bleeding Italian into position for the kill Carnera is down on the resin floor. He staggers helplessly to his feet at the count of four. As Referee Donovan waves Louis to continue the fight, the Brown Bomber. un- changed in expression: moves ia swiftly and sinks the bleeding Car nera again, This time with a de- vastating right to the head. Dazed. Carnera rises once more but in a split second he js once more down. Now, it is all over. A technical kuockeut. Louis is a grim and cruel fighter. Out of the ring, he is known ag a pleasant, upright, Biblereading young man who has no bad habits, but once inside the squared circle with an opponent the Detroit De- vastator is a transformed in- dividual. He is methodical, machine-like, and goes about his work at hand without a lost motion. Every” time he landed a blow, it had a signifi cant and devastating effect on the bulky human frame of Car- nera’s. His sullen. unblink- ing eyes bore into his oppon ent as he slashed, ripped, and battered him into submission. ‘Truly, he is a champion in the making. eeee Twenty-two years ago, Jack Johnson, who is here at the ring side tonight, floored Jim Jeffries for the undisputed heavyweight Uitle of the world. the first and ony Negro boxer to be on the top of this division.

THE WASHINGTON TRIRUNF WEEK ENDING JUNE 29, 1935 Looking ’em Over With the Tribune r comn.entator has been following with no small degree of eet any less disgust—the various reactions to the West- brook Pegler “alarmist” article of several weeks ago on the possibility of an outbreak between Negro and Italian fans at the Louis-Canera fight. * battle is now history and there was no attendant brawl be- teem thane recent THATS ahi predictions, therefore, should be valued at just so much “hooey” as they turned out to be. i ‘This writer made a thorough study of all the phases of the situa- tion, ,He not only searched every paper, white and colored, of any consequence, to learn what their various reporters. columnists and spe cial writers had to say about it, but he urged his employers to aid him in his private investigation. This investigation was carried right up to the time when colored and white fans filed out of the Yankee Stad- ium all but arm-m-arm. 2 For all of the two days prior to the fight the author of this column was in Paterson, N.J, recognized center of residence of the Italian clement of this state. ‘It was in New Jersey (Jersey City to be exact) that 2 daily paper went on record as being opposed to the staging of the fight on the assumption that the Ethiopian-Italian difficulties would exert an unsavory and dangerous influence on the Yankee Stad ium crowd of Tuesday night, The writer visited sporting centers, hung-outs where the gathcr- ings were invariably cosmopolitan as well as “joints” where the repre sentation was principally that of New Jersey's little Italy. He mingled with the olive-complexioned throngs at the fight between John Henry Lewis and Izzy Singer and cast about eavesdropping on street-corner opinions of the Joe-Primo fisticuffs. And here is what he found. Everywhere Itulians were inclined to remain coolly indifferent as to the color of Joe Louis's skin or the texture of his blood, To them, as to every member of the Negro race, the fight between’ Louis and Carnera was merely a competition between two athletes as unaffected by the dispute between their far-off countries as we are by the condi- tion of the weather in Adis Ababa: _ For every six delegates of Fascism who liked the chances of “la Preem,” there could be found hylf a dozen who were willing to hock their last pound of garlic on the “Ethiopian Eradicator.” ‘The general attitude seemed to be one that would meet your queries in the following manner: “The war? What war?” “Abyssinia? Where's that?” “Selassie? Who's he, another Louis?” | “Mussolini? Fight? Where. at the Polo Grounds?” It was plain to me that with such an attitude existing in the heart of the little Italy of this section of the country, what Pegler wrote was truly 2 “brainchild” born of necessity for something to write about. But what struck me more forcibly than all Pegler cou'd write on the subject in a lifetime was what such usually “straight shooters” as Damon Runyon, Paul Gallico and John Kieran had to say on the subject, Each of these men turned traitor in the eyes of this correspondent when they sought to exolain how they FELT SURE there would be no trouble at the Yankee Stadium, Tuesday night. They all joined in the general assertion that tnére would be no race riot because the Negroes wouldn't start one. Gallico said in part: “....The local Hariemites have come a long way from the buc- Roose, and the straw and wattle huts of the Ethiopians, and I suspect if they have any allegiance it is more or less assigned to either the Democratic or the Republican party, the same with the Socialists mak- ing up these great United States, “If anything, I imagine they would be inclined to resent the ides that they had anything in common with the primitive Africans who are at present tiffing with I! Duce. ariy, Most of them are now third and fourth generation Americans, Grive cars, have a city of their «evn and belong to no country but this Occasionally the Pugilistie success of one of their race has made some of them a little gallus but this is confined to the lowe: classes among them, and the lower classes will be more or less confined to the wet voliced bleachers at the stadium.....” Runyon and Kieran followed pretty much along the lines of Gal {co in thelr arguments, 1 don't believe 1 end a single line saying tha: le colored fans wouldn't fight because they wouldn't ha be FIGHTING BACK, 2 . Eee These men whom I like and you like and all of us like (for their impartial writings) slipped and did a fall. They. probably forgot that in all the clashes between races, the Negroes involved were NOT the AGGRESSORS. It perhaps skipped their memory that history does not show a single instance wherein phe COLORED participants in a racial disturbance STARTED. the ght.

And a series of cheers, long and lusty, accompanied the Negro light-heavyweight’s achievement. Forget Local Pride The 4,500 fight fans, most of whom came from this city, Passaic, Hackensack, Newark and other points immediately adjacent, hailed Lewis as one of the finest, cleanest, ‘most polished ringmen ever to show here: They were unstinting in their praise of the colored boy introduced as the “uncrowned light- re: champion of the worl’ This despite the fact that he had just knocked the hopes of a local white boy jnto a cocked hat. A few seconds of sparring and tussling were followed by Lewis's landing of a solid right cross flush on the whiskers of Singer and the white boy went down. Staggering to his feet at the count of nine, the Jewish gloveman tottered in the general direction of the visit- ing fighter. The latter sires back, withholding the finishing punch, Requested Halt Lewis urged Referee Jim Man- ley, white, to stop the fight. Ho |made an effort to do so, pushing Singer to his corner and waving Lewis away. But the game Jewish Jad would have none of this: In- stead, he boke away and again made for the Arizona colored boy. A cruel left hook landed point on the jaw of Singer and he again went down, a 3-point landing. With- out even so much as starting a count, Referee Manley reached down and began gathering up the prostrate victim. Lewis aided him. Cheer Lewis As he stepped through the ropes, Lewis was tendered round after round of applause. It was a glowing tribute from an almost all- White ‘audience that must have done flutter tricks to the heart of the few Negroes present. Two colored boys, Dave Lancas- ter, from Middletown, N.Y, and Phil McQuillian, Chicago lad, mem- ber of Joe Louis's camp, furnished a lively climax to the preliminary card, The former a vicious, shifty puncher, found no easy Brak, in the superior boxing. well condition- ed McQuillan.

FINLEY WILSON JAMES E. KELLY SHEP ALLEN JOHN T. RHINES C. TIFFANY TOLIVER BERKELEY, Calif. — In the most amazing list of individual performances ever seen in the far West, Jesse Owens, Ohio State's sensational colored sophomore track captain, stole the spotlight of the National Collegiate Athletic Association track and field championships here last week-end. And when the meet was over, the bronzed youth from the sidewalks of Cleveland was the toast of upward of 18,000 enthusiasts who sat and stood by as he ran, leaped and jumped. Owens took first places in the 100- and 220-yard dashes, the 220-yard low hurdles and the broad jump. His efforts alone accounted for 40 of the 40 1-5 points scored by second-place Ohio State. Southern California, winner of the meet, had 75 1-3. Fails at Marks He failed to come close to his earlier world record betterin' performances, but he beat just about the pick of the county's athletic stars in every event. No greater ovation has ever been accorded a visiting athlete. The two sprints developed into a one-man affair for first place. Owens won the hundred in 9.8 seconds and the furlong in 21.5, unexciting times when compared to his recent world-record dash of 9.4 for the former and his record-bettering run in the 220. In the short print he beat Eulace Peacock, of Temple, with George Anderson, of California, third. Anderson is the same lad who two weeks ago won over Ben Johnson, of Columbia, when the colored star pulled a tendon. In the 220 he breasted the tape just ahead of Anderson, with Herman Neugass, of Tulane, third. Each time Owens led from the start. Slowness of the times was attributed to a ten-mile-an-hour wind. Trims Hardin Owens's biggest test came in the 220-yard low hurdles, in which he faced the defending champion, Glenn Hardin, of Louisiana. Owens led after the halfway mark, and was clocked in 23.4 seconds. Hardin, who holds the N.C.A.A. record of 22.7 and has bettered the accepted world's record with a time of 22.4, was second, two yards behind. Owens clinched the broad jump yesterday in the trials with a leap of 26 feet 1% inches. His nearest rival, Al Olson, of Southern California, jumped 25 fet 8% inches, Saturday. In the 100-yard dash final, Owens led Peacock to the tape by a stride. Anderson was third, a f.ot behind. The start was even. Owens stepped out to take the lead and kept it all the way, with Peacock closing strong to nip Anderson. Hardin, also defending champion in the quarter-mile, was forced to take third. Jimmy Luville, of California, at Los Angeles, won in 87.7, and Johnny McCarthy, of Southern California, was second. Hardin held the lead until the drive down the stretch, with Luville trailing two yards behind. Luville sprinted into the lead sixty yards from home and lengthened his advantage to a good two yards. The time was 47.7 seconds, seven-tenths of a second lower than Hardin's N.C.A.A. record set last year.

Virgile Coates, and Bus Frazier collaborated to give the Georgetown Athletics a twin victory over the strong and fast traveling Sandy Springs Stars at Jackson's Park, Colesville, Md.. last Sunday. Scores were 5-4 and 12-5. Brown faced the Maryland sluggers in the opening contest and it developed into a pitching duel early. Snowden opposed him and both boys did a good job, each fanning three of the rival batsmen. Coates opened the firing in the finale and after getting off to a poor start settled down and pitched smoothly until the seventh frame when he was nicked for an additional pair of runs.

That is that of all the reports, none of the writers actually know what sort of a blow it was that felled Carnera the first time or the second or the third time. The Detroit colored boy's left hand has been touted to the skies.

Not three weeks ago, this writer told of the damaging right hand that Louis carted around on the side of his body. He described how training camp activities had exposed the fact that Jack Blackburne, his trainer, and Joe himself, were pointing to the use of his right hand on a night when Carnera was stealing away at every chance from the range of that left. Well. Primo's downfall—though it was not a downstay—here tonight was due to the Bronze Bruiser's Rocking, Ramming Right. It matters not to this observer what the rest of the boys call the punches, to me and my column the first of the three final smashes (not those to the body) was a right, the second was a right, and the third was a right.

(NP) — Following in the wake of Joe Louis. 1934 Golden Gloves light heavy-weight champion. Clinton Bridges, another one of the hard hitting, skillful fighters developed by Atler E. Ellis, Detroit trainer, got off to a blag start in his professional debut here recently at White City Casino. Bridges, weighing 170 pounds, took on Ray Tucker. 190-pounder from Louisville, Ky., and flattened him after 24 seconds of fighting in the second round. Tucker was down twice in the first round, once for a count of eight after a body bombardment, and the second time for a count of four when Bridges caught him with a hard right and sent him through the ropes. Sensational As Amateur Bridges had spread destruction in the amateur ranks and won the Inter-city and international light heavyweight Golden Gloves titles by first-round knockouts. He is one of the new fighters who defeated Louis as an amateur. In conquering Tucker, Bridges electrified the crowd and drew forth comment that he is on his way to pro championship. Jack Johnson, former heavyweight king, was at the ringside, and praised Bridges lavishly. "The boy's got everything". declared Jack. "He can't be stopped. He is a showman and a natural fighter.

A peep into the dressing room of the famed dancers discloses that they carry a complete supply of accessories consisting of 190 shirts...over 300 ties...a gross of collars...30 sets of cuff links...300 'kerchiefs (Peaches goes in for gay colors))...300 pairs of socks...and so many collar bottoms that you can't even count 'em Ted Koehler wrote the new show for the Cotton Club in Harlem, for the opening last Saturday. Nina Mae McKinney heads the revue with Claude Hopkins and band. Others to take part in the show are Butter Beans and Susie, the Nicholas Brothers, Lethia Hill. Meeres and Meeres, Avis Andrews and others. Jeni LeGon is "on her toes" when being interviewed—she just has to be. She can't talk unless she is dancing, she says. One can't talk unless she is dashing to the days. Due to some odd "complex" which she declares she doesn't understand, she just naturally "goes mute" when not on those twinkling toes of hers. "I know it's queer," she said, "but it's something that is a part of me." So, when a reporter visited her on a rehearsal stage at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios, to get her life story, she did her talking while she danced. She said maybe it was a case of fidgety feet and fidgety brain—perhaps the result of her childhood habit of dancing. Even when she was learning to talk, she danced. Now, somehow, the conversational faculty freezes up when she is seated, or standing idle, and she "thaws" only when she swings into her steps. While making a scene for "Charlie Chan in Egypt" new Fox Film production, Stepin Fetchit was supposed to register fear, descending into the tomb of an ancient priest. Advancing cautiously, he was suddenly clapped on the shoulder by Warner Oland, lost his balance, and tumbled down the steps. "I suddenly throws myself into these parts" said Stepin, "I suddenly throws myself into these parts" said Stepin, as a doctor applied iodine to his bruises. Has the present trend of vocalizing turned to sweet singing? That is the question that seems to be in everyone's mind. No longer do the hoase and husky voiced singers clutter the air waves. No longer do singers with the leading named bands swing out with "gut" songs. Today there are sweet, smooth and pleasant voiced singers accompanying our leading orchestras. There is Orlando Robeson the smooth voiced young man with Claude Hookins; Harlan Lattimore, golden tenor with Don Redmon; Chuck Richards, the sepia Bing Grosby with the Mills Blue Rhythm Band; Charlie Linton the tilting voiced with Chick Webb, and the newest of the present crop, the high pitched Herbie Jefferies, with Ralph Cooper's orchestra. Britishers at last welcomed the Mills Brothers on their second invasion of London. This peerless and incomparable act, one of the most polished musical offerings yet contributed on the stage and radio is scheduled to open at the Palladium in London. But from other correspondence we get from over there, it seems that some arrangement may have to be made in one of the better music halls on the skirts of London, such as Glasgow and Manchester where the house would seat more people and justify their high salaries.

His preparation for undertaking the characterization of "Cardinal Richelieu" the diplomatist-prelate who became the power behind the throne of France, offers an insight into the serious and thoughtful manner in which Arlisse approaches a role of such heroic proportions and probably also explains why most stars are reluctant to undertake such a role.

Washington Sketch Book BY ALVIN "CHICK" WEBB THE NEGRO IN SPORT The superiority of Joe Louis in the prize ring, and of Jessie Owens on the track are excellent testimonials of the fact that whenever Negroes are given an equal chance, and a fair and square deal to compete in games that require agility, nerve, courage, and a will to win they more often than not emerge on the top of the head. The successful exploits of these two young Negro athletes have been accomplished with decisiveness, comingled that have attracted the thousands of followers to their foids. It is this quality of good culture and breeding that will eventually solve the so-called race problem. No man can continue to bitterly hate and despise his contemporary, when that particular individual ignores that ill will and reciprocates in a cool, and friendly manner. I am hopeful that the recreational officials who, in the past, have seen fit to erect a dual and separate system of athletic and recreational activities among the groups here in the District of Columbia will see fit to observe the superior qualities that are manifested in athletes that have received their fundamental athletic training the processes of interracial play and activity. I do not venture to pose in the role of a seer or clairvoyant, but I shall be bold enough to prophecy that should interracial athletics be introduced here in the District, the calibre of our athletes would improve one hundred per cent!

SIXTEEN Hubert Julian Wears Monocle and Tries to Sell Pictures of Planes ADDIS ABARA. Ethiopia—Hubert Julian who arrived here Friday last received a cool reception in the capital city of Ethiopia. The "Black Eagle of Harlem" who once controlled Ethiopia's air force, wore a monocle and as in perfect attire. Although he is offering his services in defending the Empire, against Italy's threatened attack, no one has accepted his offer, to die for the country. He brought two bags crammed with pictures of planes which he is trying to sell to the Government. When the Emperor refused to be impressed by his offer to fight for the country, he began offering his services to local business men, but no one was interested. A government official in replying to his application to be attached to the Ethiopian air force said, "Ethiopian aviation is headed by competent foreign experts." Julian had assured friends that all rifts had been patched up between the Abyssinian Emperor and himself and that he was sure of an "open arms" welcome in view of the threatened war clouds. It looks, however, as if Ethiopia has not only expert European aviation instructors but also capable native flyers. No wonder she has no use for Julian who has no war training. Claiming Mistreatment at Home Woman Tries Suicide Lenora Smith, 27, of the 1200 block of Carrollburg Place, Southwest, attempted to commit suicide, Saturday night, by swallowing a small quantity of disinfectant. The woman was taken to Providence Hospital for first aid treatment and later transferred to Gallinger Hospital where her condition was said to have been undertermined. Fourth Precinct police say her attempt to end her life was occasioned by mistreatment at home. CONFESSES 7-YEAR-OLD MURDER MEMPHIS, Tenn. (ANP)—James Roades, arrested in Cleveland, Ohio, as a suspicious character, who gave his home as Memphis, has been returned here and is said by police to have confessed the holdup of Joseph Taverng, an Italian groceryman, in 1928. YOUR STAR and YOU By ABBE' WALLACE Youngest Mentalist on the American St. A. J. L.—Will I get the money that I have been expecting for the past two weeks? Ans.: I see disappointment for you in connection with the land that you have leased for I cannot contact you receiving money in this particular instance. The land will be sold to a person with money at a later date and you will get a good price for it. M. P.—I am undecided whether I should continue my work or what is the best thing for me to do? Ans.: Your illness has been very nerve-racking and you should not return to work this early. Go to your farm and rest for the balance of the summer and by fall you will be in good shape. This change will also be very beneficial to you and your husband. J. H.—Do either of my girls mean what they tell me or are they just pulling my leg? Ans.: Both of these girls are very serious and each of them is planning to marry you before August. You had better hurry and decide which of the girls you really want and let the other one down for it won't be a joke if you wait much longer. M. D.—Will mother get the insurance money? What caused this death? Ans.: Yes, there will be a small sum of money for your mother when she finishes the expenses attached to your brother's passing. It seems to me that your physician was perfectly frank in this case and this death could not have been avoided. E. L. S.—Will I hold my same position next year that I have had this year? Ans.: You will return to the same school that you taught last year and you will teach the same grade.

MATH DATE, and CORRECT ADDRESS, Wallace, care of WASHINGTON TRIBU west, Washington, D.C. LAWRENCE I. BROCKENBURY PINE BLUFF, Ark—The value of A. M. and N. College to the people of the State of Arkansas was again brought out this week when the Arkansas River overflowed its banks, sending scores of Negro farmers and home owners into the ranks of flood refugees. President John B. Watson, upon learning of the critical conditions of the fleeing tenants, immediately threw open the doors of the college as a place of refuge, and as a result scores of persons found shelter among the many buildings of the pioneering institution. The administration building, which houses the business offices and the library, was turned into suites of rooms on Saturday night. Men, followed by their wives and children of all, sizes and ages, crowded into the spacious building, where they found resting places. Impromptu beds were installed all over the place, and in a very short time everyone seemed to be perfectly at ease in the new surroundings. Now and then the wailing of a frightened baby would echo the crying of a sheep or a goat that had been brought along and tied outside to graze on the lawn that had already been the victim of the ground-keepers' mowers. Meals were prepared in the well-equipped kitchen of the college. Sandwiches and other foodstuffs were furnished by the state. and the school farm aided by sending in many varieties of green vegetables. Three Clerks Dismissed From Banneker Center Three colored clerks were dismissed from the Banneker Relief Center this week by Margaret Wadsworth, white, supervisor. The reason for their dismissal was said to be "decreasing of personnel." Those to leave were Vernon Jackson, file clerk; Maud Cord, clerk; and Robert Holland, door clerk. Holland was sent to the center from Emergency Relief headquarters, Fifth and H Streets, Northwest, sometime ago when there was a protest against the firing of Thomas Brier. Two white men employees of the center were dismissed at the same time. AR U ACE an Stage made. A. W.—Will the woman that I go with come and stay with me while I am ill? Ans.: Nothing would please this woman more than to stay with you but it seems to me that she has a very jealous husband who, would cause both you and her some serious trouble if he knew that you had been going with her. Let this woman alone for if she does not love her, husband then she should divorce him before running around with other people. J. L.—Will I be successful in my undertaking and will I redeem my home anytime soon? Ans.: If you raise the necessary capital you could do well in going into the grocery business as you possess the necessary qualifications to make and save money in this line. You will redeem your home but not before the year of 1936. It seems that a relative of yours will help you to get your home back. M. E. B.—Would I be justified in having an attorney handle the case I have now pending at the rate of 50%? Ans.: I shouldn't think it would be worth your time as it not necessary for you to employ an attorney to help settle this case you have pending with the insurance company if you cooperate with them and fill out the claims that you are supposed to. Get in touch with this company and see if you can't come to some kind of an agreement without having to take it to court. C. M. F.—Do you think that the woman that I did some work for will ever pay me for my services? Ans.: The lady has not had the money, however, if you will go to her and explain that you need the money and that you won't be able to do any work for a few months she will arrange to pay you.

YOU ALWAYS GET BETTER QUALITY T NO HIGHER PRICE WHEN YOU BUY A FIRESTONE TIRE WITH FIRESTONE NAME AND GUARANTEE TIRES may look alike on the outside, but on the inside where blowouts start, they are different. Firestone Tires are made blowout-proof by Gum-Dipping, a patented extra process which soaks every cotton cord and insulates every strand with pure liquid rubber. In fact, every 100 pounds of cotton cords absorb eight additional pounds of liquid rubber. This special process prevents internal friction and heat, the main cause of blowouts. No other make of tire is Gum-Dipped, yet you pay no more for Firestone blowout-proof protection than you are asked to pay for tires built without this patented safety construction feature. The make of tires you buy for your car becomes a matter of vital importance when you realize that there were 882,000 automobile accidents in 1934 injuring 954,000 people and killing 36,000 and that 43,000 of these accidents were caused by blowouts, punctures and skidding. Firestone High Speed Gum-Dipped Tires hold all world records on road and track for safety, speed, mileage and endurance. These records emphasize the undisputed evidence that Firestone Tires are not only blowout-proof but give greatest protection against skidding. THERE ARE THREE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS THAT WILL SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM OF WHAT TIRES TO BUY 1 "Will the tread give me the greatest traction and protection against skidding?" Recent tests by a leading University show that Firestone High Speed Non-Skid Tires stop a car 15% quicker than any other of the leading makes. For eight consecutive years Firestone Tires have been on the winning car in the dangerous Pike's Peak Race where a skid means death. This is undisputed evidence that Firestone gives car owners greatest protection against skidding. 2 "Are they blowout-proof?"

Firestone Gum-Dipped Tires have the most amazing records for being blowout-proof of any tires ever built. In the gruelling 500-Mile Race at Indianapolis, May 30th, every one of the 33 cars was equipped with Firestone Gum-Dipped Tires. Kelly Petillo won the race and broke the record over this 26-year-old rough brick track without tire trouble—in fact, not one of the 33 drivers had tire trouble of any kind. Ab Jenkins drove his 5,000 pound car on Firestone Gum-Dipped Tires over the hot salt beds of Utah, 3,000 miles in $23\frac{1}{2}$ hours, at an average speed of 127.2 miles per hour, with temperatures as high as $120^{\circ}$, without tire trouble of any kind. These are most amazing proofs of blowout protection ever known.

This is made possible by the tough, wear-resisting tread built with higher shoulders and a wider, flatter contour. This thick, rugged, scientifically designed tread is held securely to the Gum-Dipped cord body by Firestone's patented construction of two extra layers of cords under the tread. This is a special construction feature not used in any other tire. Unequaled mileage records by thousands of car owners add undisputed evidence of the longer wear and greater economy of Firestone High Speed Tires.

UNEMPLOYED Visiting Housekeepers Give Guidance and Instruction By BERNARD BRAXTON Visiting housekeepers organized under an emergency home-making program, will be one of the important work projects to give employment to women on the relief rolls. Mrs. Ellen S. Woodward, assistant Federal works progress administrator, announced this week. The emergency home-making program will provide special services for families when there is sickness, and will give guidance and instruction to housewives and heads of families to enable them to manage family affairs on a higher plane and establish a more satisfactory home life. Home-making projects will give employment to both manual and educational workers. Mrs. Woodward said. Manual workers will go into homes where there is illness or some other emergency to do the housework and assist in the care of the patient and the family. Sometimes this help will make it possible for the patient to be cared for in the home, thus reducing hospitalization costs. Educational workers are to give practical instruction in better household methods to families that need aid and encouragement in working toward a higher standard of home life. Simple methods of teaching will be carried on by means of discussions and demonstrations in the individual home or in group meetings. Special attention is to be given to the proper care of children, the orderliness and efficiency of home routine, the selection and preparation of food, cleanliness and the family's health. This type of social service will be of great value not only to the families aided but to the community as a whole. Mrs. Woodward emphasized, in stating that no other phase of women's work has struck deeper into the roots of human needs. Careful consideration will be given to the selection of workers for home-making projects. Those who serve as educational workers must be qualified. They will be selected on the basis of their training in home economics, a knowledge of practical nursing, or because they are outstanding housekeepers who have managed their own homes satisfactorily. When and where the projects are to be set up, Mrs. Woodward said, depend upon the special needs of the community, local conditions and the number of workers available from the relief rolls. It is hoped that it will be possible to put the program in operation here as one of the low-cost projects which will be necessary in providing work for around 1.000 persons on the District relief rolls. CIVIL RIGHTS (Continued from page 1) The recent refusal of the Arlington Hotel to accept Negro delegates to a national conference has awakened the colored citizenry of the city to the need of this sort of legislation. The recent passage of similar bills in New Jersey and Pennsylvania has given impetus and volume to the demand for such a bill in the capital of the nation. The Alliance committee in charge of the pushing of the bill is composed of William H. Hastie, chairman; Dutton Ferguson, Roy Ellis. Benjamin Coward and George H. Hrycraw. Albert E. DeMond is administrator of the New Negro Alliance. Y CONFERENCE (Continued from page 1) made promoting and maintaining Y.W.C.A. organizations for the betterment of both white and colored girls. Mrs. Emma C. Ransom, for many years an outstanding Y.W.C.A. worker, representing the Y.W.C.A. at the school, brought greetings to the delegates. The National Public Affairs program of the Y.W.C.A. 1934-36, was studied and discussed for the benefit of delegates. Those participating in the discussions as conference leaders were Miss Marion Cutlbert, national staff, New York City; Miss Violet T. Lewis, registrar, Dayton, Ohio; Mrs. Lillian W.

EVICTION OF FAMILY IS PROTESTED NEW YORK (CNA) — A tidal wave of protest is engulfing the eviction proceedings against the Lawlor family of 436 East Sixteenth Street. Organizations, neighbors, tenants and prominent individuals have protested the attempt of the landlord, Sigmund Schneeweiss, to evict the family on the grounds it is Negro. The local Unemployment Council and Federation of Architects, Engineers, Chemists and Technicians, have pledged unstinting support. Seven out of 18 tenants in the building in which Lawlor resides have refused to pay further rent until the eviction proceedings are withdrawn. Twelve of the tenants have protested to Schneeweiss. In a letter of protest to the landlord, James Waterman Wise, white editor of the influential liberal magazine, "Opinion," declares: "From every point of view this action (eviction) is unjust and unwise. It is unjust because it discriminates against a man on the basis of his race—a discrimination which has no basis in American law or human conscience." BOYS PREVENT FRAMEUP OF LABOR LEADER NEW YORK. (CNA) — BRAVING threats of third degree, two colored boys spiked the attempts of the Ellis Island officials to frame John Uijich, white labor leader held here for deportation. When Uijich protested against the poor food and asked for badly needed hospital treatment, the prison guards planned to frame him by planting a table knife in his cell. Mr. Foreman, white, head guard, threatened the two boys, with the third degree if they did not testify that Uijich had hidden the knife. Win Medical Care The boys' refusal smashed the official's plot and won medical care for Uijich. In a letter written before he was taken to the hospital, Uijich stated: "We (Ujich and the boys) are isolated and discriminated against everywhere. While others are permitted in the yard Mr. Reimer (prison official) has violated his promise, made last Christmas, that all political prisoners will be allowed the same consideration." Ujich was arrested for protesting against the $1.50 week relief scale for unemployment in the city of Tacoma, Washington. ATTEMPT 10 BAR ATTORNEYS FROM ALABAMA MONTGOMERY, Ala. (CNA)—An attempt to undermine the right for the freedom of the Scottsboro boys was seen here by many in a bill to be introduced into the Alabama legislature by Representative John Arnold of Jefferson County (Birmingham). e The bill is aimed "specifically at attorneys sent into the state by the International Labor Defense and other who are undesirable," according to Arnold. The L.L.D. attorneys are taking momentous steps in the next few weeks on behalf of the Scottsboro boys. The bill would also prevent other attorneys, interested in demanding constitutional rights for clients, from defending accused persons in Alabama courts. Judges in the circuit and other courts would be empowered to pass on the qualifications of lawyers from other states. TERRELL Wednesday week, Miss G. A. Scott entertained at luncheon the boys of 7B1, 8A2 and Jehu Hunter of 8B2 who took part in the pageant entitled "The Triumph."

The median of the week's earnings of white women was $14.25 and that of Negro women less than three-fifths as much—each case. Tips did not add significantly to women's low wages for the median of white women's earnings including tips and other extras was only $16 and that of Negro women only $9. It was found that the shops charging higher prices paid higher wages. Method of payment also influenced the size of the pay envelope. Many of the women were paid on a commission, and their wages were lower than those of women paid by the week. since during 1933-34 they bore the brunt of declining business. Hours Are Long In the shops the hours were long and irregular, seeming to reflect the long hours of domestic workers who made up the bulk of the customers. Thursday, the most usual night off for domestic workers, and Saturday were the usual rush days, and on such days many shops reported 9 or 10 o'clock or even later as their closing time. Three of every five women worked longer than 48 hours a week. These irregular hours were the greatest health liability in the trade. Only 1 in 10 of the women reporting had suffered from a strain or hazard resulting from their work, burns and skin infections being the most frequent complaints. More injuries seemed to be connected with handling the permanent wave solution than any other operation, since certain of these solutions are very drying and the skin of the hand is apt to become cracked and infected.

I am sure, because you'll find that the work is interesting, beautiful and it does a lot of real good. I'm beginning this little department after becoming thoroughly convinced that orchids (kind words). uttered about a person may do him a lot of good. Surely they can do no harm.

Mr. Webb inspired me to dig up nice things to say about people by those flattering orchids that he has been tossing at me in recent issues of his column. He has shown me how much good kind thoughts and pleasant remarks may do; what an orchid may do that a brickbat may not—so I've lost all thoughts of digging up nasty remarks, gossip and scandal in quest of the complimentary things about folks. Webb is a wonder—he has accomplished more than my pastor, so far as I am concerned. To Evelyn Johnson I must present my second orchid, for when I stated that I wanted to start an orchid garden, she volunteered to be my personal aid cultivating the beautiful flowers and attending to their delivery. I wish that I knew more girls like Evelyn. To those young barristers, Lewis, Beaubian and Lawson, for having the most beautiful and novel arrangement of offices of any of our local attorneys.

WEEK ENDING JUNE 29, 1935 We Don't Want It Every clear thinking Negro will oppose the creation of an Industrial Commission on Negro Affairs as proposed by Congressman Arthur W. Mitchell. The commission is nothing more than an attempt to have the government place the stamp of approval on segregation and jim crow. The so-called commission would have absolutely no powers and would resolve itself into a rubber stamp group. It would merely provide some fine jobs for Negro politicians and would, in no way aid the masses of Negroes who need jobs. It is unfortunately true that some Negroes, such as Kelly Miller, have compromised with jim crow and are approving this sinister plan, but fortunately this class of Negro leader is decreasing and the young Negro does not endorse jim crow or segregation in any form. Most of the old Negro group who have had their day are satisfied to be lulled by such schemes. Of course we have jim crow schools, but we do not approve of them. We have to accept what it takes force to do away with. The brilliant victory won by Charles H. Houston in the University of Maryland case goes for naught if such devilish things as separate and jim crow commissions are fostered and approved by the government. There is no straddling on this issue. Either one is for or against segregation. What we are forced to take we do so and demand that it be the equal of institutions for whites, but the new Negro will fight segregation in any form wherever its head crops up. Mr. Mitchell and others would do well to study the Constitution of the United States and insist that that document be enforced. Jim crow commissions would not be necessary and all of our ills would be speedily remedied if the principles on which this country were founded would be adhered to. All that the Negro wants is the right to live as men the same as other citizens of the United States—nothing more, nothing less. A jim crow commission would only aggravate the situation and not in any way help it. The Job Seeks the Man The appointment of Benjamin L. Gaskins as a member of the Board of Education is an outstanding example of the job seeking the man. The selection of Mr. Gaskins meets with the approval of the citizens of Washington who had come to believe that positions of importance were slated for members of a particular set or group. The newly appointed board member is not affiliated with any group or fraternity. His life has been spent dealing with the problems of the masses. He goes into the position with an open mind and will not tolerate personal pull or "inside stuff" in the promotion of selection of teachers. As attorney for The Tribune for a number of years we have learned of his ready grasp of situations and his keen insight into problems of the Negro race in educational as well as economic affairs. He believes that the board members and teachers should have close contact on school problems and preference should be given local men and women in the selections. The Tribune congratulates the justices of the District Supreme court on their selection. With a so-called "outsider" on the Municipal Court bench in Armond W. Scott and the appointment of Mr. Gaskins on the Board of Education looks like, after all, ability is to be the judge for fitness in important appointments and not "pull" or the need to know what strings to pull in order to get recognition. Block That Punt The action of the District Commissioners in opposing the erection of a Recorder of Deeds Building will be fought and protested by the Negro citizens of Washington as the move on the part of the District officers to have the recorder's office in the proposed Juvenile Court Building is nothing more than an attempt to make the position as recorder of deeds a political ball at the whim and wishes of office holders. Mrs. Mary Norton, member of the House of Representatives, introduced a bill last week proposing the erection of a Recorder of Deeds Building—at a cost of $200,000. The commissioners' plan is to have the recorder's office in the Juvenile Court Building which would automatically place the office under the direction of the court and eventually under the thumb of politicians. The commissioners sought to gain supervision over the Board of Educa- tion last winter, but this move was blocked by citizens. The recorder's office has been the bouncing ball of the District for some thirty years and only recently has it established itself into a separate unit—self-supporting—and personneled and directed by Negroes. Despite the fact that the office was not wanted near white groups years ago and was shoved and moved about—it seems as though that since it is a well organized unit, it would make a dainty morsel for political purposes. There is no objection to placing the Juvenile Court in the Recorder's Building, but Negroes should block any attempt to have this traditional Negro institution made pap for local politicians. Such a plan as the commissioners seek to bring about would result in most of the higher paying positions in the office going to white persons and Negroes reduced to porters and charwomen as is the case in practically every other unit in the District government.

Thompson Martin Says— To the Editor: It has been reported that Gen. Hugh Johnson is writing a new NRA. If that be true then he will have to get another bird because the old Blue Eagle is dead. The NRA was unable to stand the test because it wasn't uniform. It has been reported that Gen. Hugh Johnson is writing a new NRA. If that be true then he will have to get another bird because the old Blue Eagle is dead. The NRA was unable to stand the test because it wasn't uniform. The NRA will probably be revised several times before a definite conclusion is reached THOMPSON MARTIN. 1201 Perry St. N.E. Says Ministers' Alliance has cart before horse in recent demands. To the Editor: In a recent issue of the Washington Tribune, we learned that a committee representing the Interdenominational Ministers' Alliance, had called on Miss M. Alice Hill, director of the Public Assistance Division (formerly the Emergency Relief Division) and, among other things, had demanded colored supervisors in districts where most of the clients were colored. In a recent issue of the Washington Tribune, we learned that a committee representing the Interdenominational Ministers' Alliance, had called on Miss M. Alice Hill, director of the Public Assistance Division (formerly the Emergency Relief Division) and, among other things, had demanded colored supervisors in districts where most of the clients were colored. Without either criticizing or approving the committee's action, I would like to point out just one thing: At the beginning of this school year, a group of colored social workers engaged in relief and other forms of social work here in the city, made efforts to pursue further studies in their fields. The only college to which these workers could be admitted gave very little cooperation or encouragement. The "one" class that was available to them was crowded with enrollees. The colored workers were forced to forego that education which they knew was absolutely necessary in order to hold their places in competition with the white workers who have several colleges open to them carrying splendid courses of social work, and who are taking advantage of this fact and preparing themselves for better positions.

It seems to me that it would be much wiser at the present time for this committee to attempt to enlist the cooperation of Howard University to do something to help these workers advance themselves through accredited courses in their field of work, so that they might be qualified for the supervisory positions for which the committee is clamoring, if and when such positions are open to them, than to demand something that the workers already in the organization has no way of preparing himself for, because limited finances keep him here in the city on the job, and the one college to which he has access is closed to him for all practical purposes. To demand supervisory positions when we are not ready to work and give the prospective applicant a chance to obtain the necessary background seems to me rather like putting the cart before the horse. The colored relief workers have given long and faithful service, but they face a serious handican in not having available educational facilities which will enable them to compete with the white worker and stand shoulder to shoulder with him. If the committee really wants to do something about the situation, why not do something about that? BEATRICE M. MURPHY Students say Adams is not a fighter, regret article was printed in Tribune.

Mr Adams is a good teacher and is loved and honored by every student. If you don't believe us, observe our meeting in the fall—it's friendly air will confirm our statement. We want to say that the importance of the whole thing was not sufficiently important to warrant publicity. We wish to say that since our parents are taxpayers, we have a right to have a voice in the matter. We are sending a petition to the Board of Education because we believe that we should support our teacher in his hour of need. Mr. Adams even takes us out to his home for parties. We, the undersigned, want it known that Mr. Adams is not a fighter and we shall ask the Board of Education to return him to Armstrong High in the Fall.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE Kelly Miller Discusses A Federal Commission On Negro Affairs The Federal Government recognizes race distinction but not race discrimination in sundry Federal provisions. The separate schools of Washington, the establishment and maintenance of Freedmen's Hospital and of the Veterans Hospital at Tuskegee, Ala., the authorized appropriations for Howard University, colored regiments in the United States army and sundry like provisions are based clearly upon race distinction. Hon. Arthur W. Mitchell, the only Negro member of Congress, introduced a Bill to establish a Federal Commission on Negro affairs. Proposals to this affect have been suggested and engaged public thought and discussion for the past thirty years. None of them, however, have gotten beyond the stage of being introduced in Congress and hearings before appropriate committees. Mr. Mitchell, however, is thoroughly convinced that his proposed measure will shortly be enacted into law and put into practical effect. W.

Mitchell, the only Negro member of Congress, introduced a Bill to establish a Federal Commission on Negro affairs. Proposals to this affect have been suggested and engaged public thought and discussion for the past thirty years. None of them, however, have gotten beyond the stage of being introduced in Congress and hearings before appropriate committees. Mr. Mitchell, however, is thoroughly convinced that his proposed measure will shortly be enacted into law and put into practical effect. Judging by the esteem in which Congressman Mitchell is held by his colleagues and the widespread favor with which this Bill is received, in and out of Congress, there seems to be good reason for believing that the hopes of the author will be realized. The hearings was held on this Bill by the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday, June 18, 1935. NORTH AND SOUTH EXPRESS FAVORABLE INTEREST Congressman Sommers of Texas, Chairman, and practically the full committee were in attendance and gave most considerate attention. Several members of Congress, from both the North and South, expressed their interest in the measure. Dr. R. R. Moton of Tuskegee, Hon. Perry W. Howard, Mr. J. E. Mitchell, editor of the Argus, St. Louis, Mo., Attorney Scipio Jones, of Little Rock, Ark., Dr. Alain Locke and your writer of this article, appeared in behalf of the Bill.

Several members of Congress, from both the North and South, expressed their interest in the measure. Dr. R. R. Moton of Tuskegee, Hon. Perry W. Howard, Mr. J. E. Mitchell, editor of the Argus, St. Louis, Mo., Attorney Scipio Jones, of Little Rock, Ark., Dr. Alain Locke and your writer of this article, appeared in behalf of the Bill. The N.A.A.C.P. through its attorney Mr. Charles Houston, telegraphed requesting the privilege of filing with the Committee its opposition to the proposed measure. Mr. Mitchell advises that this is the only semblance of opposition yet developed. Although Mr. Houston did not indicate the nature of the brief requested to be filed with the Committee, yet it is easy to divine that it must be of the nature of opposition to what seems to smack of class legislation. During the entire life of the N.A.A.C-P. similar proposals have been before Congress and the public, but if I mistake not, it is the first time that this organization has registered itself in the opposition. DIFFERENTIATED TREATMENT REPUGNANT TO RACE Several proponents of the Bill anticipated the objection based upon the appearance of class legislation. The writer of this release addressed himself mainly to this point. In principle the Federal Government is opposed to all forms of class legislation. It is sought to keep the statute books free from the stain of race or class discrimination and yet, as Dr. Moton pointed out, we are confronted with a condition and not a theory. The Federal Government recognizes race distinction but not race discrimination in sundry Federal provisions. The separate schools of Washington, the establishment and maintenance of Freedmen's Hospital and of the Veterans Hospital, at Teekegue, Ala., the authorized appropriations for Howard University, colored regiments in the United States army and sundry like provisions are based clearly upon race distinction. THE COMMISSION WILL PROMOTE ADVANTAGES Differentiated treatment on account of race or color is contrary to the spirit and genius of democratic institutions and especially repugnant to the sensibilities of the Negro race. Wherever there is set up distinctions on account of race, it is always on the expressed or understood basis that there must be equal, even though separate accommodations. The grants to Howard University represent, I believe, the only instance in Federal legislation where race discrimination is clearly avowed. But this discrimination is in favor of the Negro, no other institution enjoys similar Congressional favor. But as the Negro suffers the heavy brunt of discrimination in the administration of law, though not in the legislation itself, the special favor enjoyed by Howard University is only to partly offset the Negro's many disadvantages. After all none of us can be logical in dealing with the race question. THIS IS A PRACTICAL SENSIBLE PROGRAM Race prejudice frustrates all the formulas of logic. Under existing circumstances and conditions, a Commission such as Congressman Mitchell proposes will be a most desirable instrument in promoting the interest of the Negro race and the welfare of the nation. There is one interesting feature in the Mitchell Bill which was to be found in any of the similar measures which preceded it. It proposes to take steps against subversive propaganda calculated to lead the Negro away from the ideals of American citizenship. The demagog and promoters of wild propaganda are ever prone to seize upon the grievances of the Negro race as a means of inducing them to join the ranks of the restless and dissatisfied trouble makers. The Reed, the Communists, the Fascists, the Nazis have nothing to offer the American Negro but would beguile him into a sea of trouble by which he would be enraged. The Negro today is faced by a situation which is more serious than any which has confronted him since the Emancipation. Here is a practical constructive proposal which offers immediate help in the midst of present troubles. All Negroes of whatever school of thought or shade of opinion should uphold Mr. Mitchell's hand in putting over this race Commission. It wa interesting to see the Hon. Perry W. Howard, the arch Negro Republican, working hand in glove with Congressman Mitchell his Democratic antitype, in promoting this proposition for general racial good. I urge Negroes from all parts of the country to deluge Congress and Senators with telegrams and letters for the support of Mitchell's Commission on Negro affairs. Every man ought to have courage to back what is right in his com- --- ```markdown ``` TheLeague of Nations and Ethiopia That much discussed and most ambitious undertaking of the Treaty makers of Versailles. The League of Nations, is again called on to justify its existence. Articles 10 of the League Covenant binds all members "to respect the independence and territorial integrity of other nations." When Japan, in furtherance of her imperialistic dreams, began the devastation of China, invaded Manchuria and set up a Puppet King, the Chinese invoked the protection of the League Covenant in vain. Informed on conditions that required the full attention of the World Powers at home, Japan defied the League, effected the rape of the Chinese Empire, took over Manchuria and in haughty arrogance quit the League. Not satisfied, the Nipponese now set out to still further encroach on the territory of China and again defy the mandates of the sacred covenant to which they once so solemnly subscribed. Massing their troops in the very shadow of the Great Wall, the Japs so impressed and inspired with fear the Chinese Government, that without firing a shot, Japan takes over two provinces in Northern China. Flouted and discredited, impotent to enforce her mandates against Japan, the League Council fervently hoped the incident would be forgotten and its last wrestle regained. Now comes the upstart Muszolini with his threats against the territorial integrity of Abyssinia, a joint signator with Italy to the Covenant of the League of Nations. The Italian Dictator's justification for the invasion of Ethiopia is the filmsy charge of an attack on Italian interest on their frontier; the force of this charge can be measured when it is revealed that the event occurred 110 miles within Abyssinian territory. A war, anywhere, under modern conditions, would be frightful-Costly in man power and money. Why then does Mussolini undertake this expedition? First, like Japan, the ever increasing population makes new territory indispensable. Abyssinia is a land of boundless natural resources, entirely undeveloped, with a climate unsurpassed, in any part of the world! Second, things at home are none too pleasant for the dictator; he must distract the minds of the people from depression at home by this warlike gesture to defend national honour or abroad. Forty years ago another Italian Government invaded Africa with the same purpose of conquest; in the battle of Adua in 1896, the Italian troops were defeated and almost annihilated by the Abyssinians under the leadership of LijYasn, grandson of Emperor Menelek II, (by an ironic twist of fate the Associated Press just recounts the death of this great warrior in a lonely prison in the province of Harrar). The Italian offensive is scheduled for sometime in September or October when the long rainy season is over. With the League of Nations impotent to restrain these imperialistic designs, the war seeema inevitable. Mussolini, Dictator, Ruler without benefit of inherited right or constitutional warrants, will invade and undertake to destroy an ancient dynasty more than 5,000 years of age. An upstart, without regal background or diplomatic training and culture, will come to grins with the King of Kings, direct descendant of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba! The outcome! Who can say? Italy may prevail, and Abyssinia, as an ancient and sovereign dynasty, become vassal to an alien horde! or yet it may be, the story of Adua will be repeated. The Italian troops may be destroyed. The repercussion of an overwhelming defeat may bring about the downfall of Mussolini and, so engulfed in the resulting revolution and chaos, instead of the disappearance from the conceit of nations, of Ethiopia, there will be effaced the sullen dreamer who essays to re-build in all its splendor, the Glory that was Rome. Pickens Says -- ITALIAN BOXERS "BEATEN BEFORE THE BOUTS STARTED" At least that is what Father Bernard Doyle, white priest of St-Patrick's Church, wrote to the Chicago Daily Tribune, after four Negro-American boys had won four boxing victories against four of Mussolini's champions. The Father thinks that "colored boxes should not be matched against boxers from Europe. It places the latter at a very decided disadvantage." Well, that about beats all the strange "alibis" for white superiority that we have ever heard of, and we have heard of all the strangest ones. When Mussolini sends over his eight best champion boxers to meet the eight oest of the United States, and four of Amorica's best happen to be black and win over the Italians, the charge that we put the invaders "at a dissadvantage" by putting up our best boxers is really funny. When people engage in contests, that is exactly what they are supposed to do; put the opponent at every "disadvantage" within the rules of the game. Suppose, when we were having our elimination contest on this side of the Atlantic there had been found four American white boys who would have beaten these four black boys; then, if we had put up against those Italians the conquerors of these Negro boxers, instead of the Ne- WEEK ENDING JUNE 29, 1935 BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CIRCUM Houston Says So-Called Negro Commission is Political Pap Pointing out that the so-called Industrial Commission on Negro Affairs as proposed by Congressman Arthur W. Mitchell is a mere political pap and such a group would in no way aid in solving the various problems of the Negro race in America, Charles H. Houston, dean of the Howard University Law School, vigorously opposed such a measure in a letter to The Committee on Judiciary of the House of Representatives. His letter follows: 1. submit herewith memorandum in opposition to H.R. 5733, 74th Congress, 1st Session, for an Industrial Commission on Negro Affairs, introduced by Congressman Arthur W. Mitchell of Illinois, and on which a hearing was held by your Committee June 19, 1935. The reasons for my opposition are as follows: 1. The name of the proposed Commission is grossly misleading. It is styled the Industrial Commission on Negro Affairs, but a glance at its powers shows that the Commission would draw in to itself all functions concerning Negroes in this Country, H.R. 5733 provides that the Commission shall have the power "...to promote the general welfare of the Negro in industrial pursuits, and to encourage his general uplift; to work out plans looking toward the solution of the different problems confronting the Negro race of the United States; to consider all questions pertaining to the Negro that may be referred to said Commission by any department of the United States Government, and report a suggested solution of any and all problems that may be presented to the Commission by any officer of the United States, the governor or attorney general of any of the States;...to report to Congress through the President of the United States all their acts and doings and to make such recommendations for the solution of any problem or problems affecting the Negro that they may deem advisable." In other words Negroes and Negro problems are to be set off and segregated into a special category just as if Negroes were wards of the Government. Negroes are not wards; they are citizens. As citizens they do not want any permanent Commission on Negro Affairs sitting as a self-appointed supreme court over their problems. Negroes want their problems considered and acted upon by the respective departments bureaus and administrations of the Government wherever they rightly belong, just the same as the problems of any other group of citizens in the United States 2. The proposed Industrial Commission on Negro Affairs has no real power. It can do nothing. It is merely an empty gesture of political patronage. for a few job holders to try to lull Negroes to sleep. Under H.R. 5733 the Commission is given no power to summon witnesses, or compel attendance before it, or compel the production of books and records. It can give no orders. All it can do is "report and recommend." Negroes do not need any Commission simply to "recommend." The Negro has suffered from too much recommendations and too little action for all these years. 3. Negroes do not want any Commission on Negro Affairs tacked on as a separate appendage behind the main body of the Government. What Negroes want is proper representation in the organized structure of the Government as it now exists. There is nothing that the proposed Commission could do which could not be done better and directly by the several departments, bureaus and administrations of the Government now existing. Instead of an Industrial Commission on Negro affairs, Negroes want more representation in the Department of Labor, with real investigation and supervision over conditions affecting Negro industrial workers; more representation in the Department of Agriculture with true concern for the welfare of Negro sharecroppers, tenants and farm laborers; more representation in the Department of Commerce for the purpose of developing Negro business and advancing Negroes in business; more representation in the Department of the Interior, and every other gro boxers themselves, would not that have put the invaders at a greater disadvantage? But the good Father's idea is, that these poor little Fascists just got frightened when they laid eyes on the beautiful brown bodies of the American Negroes. What an idea that is—and what a charge! Since when did the white man start taking fright at the mere sight of his colored enemies? We had been thinking that a black skin acted upon a white man's psychology rather, like a red rag acts upon a bull. Forty-five years ago, when John L. Sullivan, champion white boxer of the world, was unwilling to fight Peter Jackson, great black boxer, Sullivan put his alibi in the form of humor: "If I wanted to fight an elephant. I would go into the African jungle and box." That made people laugh—and perhaps saved Sullivan from getting whipped by the great Jackson. When Jack Johnson beat Jim Jeffries, the disappointed and distressed southern newspapers, who the day before had predicted that the fight would prove the "superiority of the white race" and hailed it as the "battle of the centurv." sneered the day after: "Well, it was only a brute fight department, bureau and administration. Many of the cases which are supposed to call for this proposed Commission would be eradicated by even a temporary show of activity on the part of the Department of Justice in running down lynchers who terrorize and murder Negro peasants, and workers to prevent their resistance to the inhuman exploitation they are subjected to in many places. 4. No Negro is so childish so to believe that this Commission would be able to do more than the organized departments, bureaus and administration are now doing. And if the Commission is not going to perform a real service, there is no reason for its existence, and no reason to squander the public money simply to give a few politicians a chance to trade jobs. If the Government suppresses its own official reports of official investigations when they are too frank and open with unpleasant truths, as it did with the Myers report about sharecropper conditions in Arkansas, it would not even permit the Commission to start on an investigation which would reveal anything significant about the exploitation of the Negro in industry or agriculture. 5. The truth is that the existence of the proposed Industrial Commission on Negro Affairs would be a grand excuse for all the departments Federal and State to get the Negro off their shoulders and to shift all perplexing and disturbing Negro problems over the Commission. The departments would say they had referred the problems to the Commission; the Commission would say it had the matters under advisement. Negroes have had enough of this dodging of responsibility; they will not look with favor upon the creation of an additional buck-passing agency. They want responsibility to stay with the respective department, bureau or administration where it properly belongs. 6. There is nothing new about this proposed Industrial Commission on Negro Affairs, H.R. 5733. In one form or another similar bills have been regularly introduced in Congress ever since the 47th Congress, 1st Session. in 1881-1882. The fact that no serious action has been taken on these bills shows that even their sponsors have recognized the only real purpose they have is as a political gesture. 7. No public demand supports the Bill. There is crying need for a Congressional investigation into the conditions affecting Negroes in industry and agriculture; but this would mean a real investigation with power behind it, to accomplish anything. There is no public demand for this particular Bill, H.R. 5733, proposing this so-called Industrial Commission on Negro Affairs. The Bill has been introduced and a matter of public information since February 14. 1935; but there has been no public clamor for its passage. Where are the supporting editorials? Where are the supporting press? Where are the petitions and resolutions of endorsements? What real study and brief have been presented at any time or any place showing any substantial good the Commission could reasonably be expected to accomplish under its proposed organization and powers, and pointing out how these benefits are to come about? 8. Finally this proposed Commission is nothing more or less than political pap for politicians to dangle in front of the people. As such it may have dangerous and unexpected political repercussions, because it is impossible to treat the modern Negro as if he were an adolescent child and get away with it. Negroes are learning to think and they are beginning to remember. If Congress really wishes to do something for the Negro, let it insist upon the Negro receiving his full protection and recognition from the existing departments, bureau and administrations. If it does that, Negroes will not need any so-called Industrial Commission on Negro Affairs. If it does not do that, then the so-called Industrial commission on Negro Affairs can have no other purpose except to provide a few political jobs and to mislead the Negro people into a false notion that Congress is actually concerned with their welfare. anyway, and of course the biggest brute won!" When the terrible black Siki, of Africas, whipped Carpenter and everybody else in France and Europe, a New York daily paper said: "Well, any gorilla could beat a man." It is plain, of course, that all such sneers are but the retorts of the wounded superiority complex. We honor the Italian boys, who said simply that they lost because their opponents were the better team—not because they had more pigment in their skins than Italians have. Father Doyle's serious suggestion is about the most ridiculous excuse of all, and we are not going to let him get away with it. If anything, a white man ought to feel sure of victory when he stands face to face with a Negro—if he believes whist he has read all his life: that Negroes are cowards, that they run even from ghosts or from posts with sheets hanging on them; that one white man can chase a troop of Negroes; that even black troops will not fight unless they are officered by white men. And so on and so forth. The Italian boys had seen Hollywood movies, where the Negro is running away from a shadow, let alone a man; they had seen Stepin The Lyric Voice An Occidental Column of Voice Contributed by COMMANDER DUCKENEY A well-turned sonnet in a joy to behold, but so rarely is excellence achieved with this familiar verse-pattern of Shakespeare and Petrarch, that the term "sonnetter" has come to have a contemptuous connotation in the dictionaries. Mr. Brown however, has the happy faculty of playing varied and lovely music on the scale of his intimate emotions—all within the restricted compass of the conventional fourteen lines: DELUSION By Charles Mason Brown I care but for the surfaces of things: The throaty lavrock, sighing to the night; An eagle, winging his gigantic flight; Nor do I hear the murderous shot, that brings Him slanting down to earth on bleeding wings; For I am blind to this, and every sight Of death, that is the one stupendous blight; Casting its pall over all our fashionings.

Recorder During the last few weeks, many of our big Negro weeklies have been carrying the news of a race member being appointed "specialist in Statistics." This appointment was made by Secretary of Commerce Daniel C. Roper. Since 1900, the government has collected data relative to the Negro. That data has been the real measuring rod of Negro progress in this country. It was Charles E. Hall who sold the idea to former governor Merriam, of this state, who had been appointed Commissioner of Census. All these years, Mr. Hall has remained in the background. Superiors have had the credit for the Negro Statistics which have been compiled under the direction of a man behind the scenes. It took years of achievement and power of the Democratic Party before this hidden statistical genius could take his rightful place. We have a right to believe that William L. Austin, director of census, had some part in placing the honor where it belongs. Mr. Hall is one of those Negroes with a family tree that can be definitely traced over 150 years. In the branches of the tree are the Halls of St. Paul. Charles E. Hall is their uncle. If we keep our minds set in the right direction all else will follow. It may be true that we do nothing well until we know ourselves perfectly. Fetchit trembling all over at the slightest threat of hurt. No, sir, it was not fear of pigmentation that made these sons of Caesar go down before the black boxes; the Italian boys were simply outclassed, as they were first to admit. From what they had read and heard and seen in false story and and pictures about Negroes, they should rather have expected their black opponent in the ring at Chicago to break into a run when the Fascist tore into him. Did Jesse Owens outrun and outjump his white opponents because the whites were frightened by the Owens pigment, or because Owens was the better runner and jumper? If Italiani are in the habit of taking fright at the very sight of black bodies, as Father Doyle implies, somebody had better, warn Mussolini about the East African campaign; for those Abyssinian tribesmen look a sight more terrible than American Negroes when they come tearging at an enemy.

Old man “Fall- ing Weather” tried hard all morn- ing and part of the afternoon to spread a wet blanket about: But “Sol” finally got the better of “Falling Weather,” and when six o'clock came there wasn’t a trace of a raindrop around. “Oh, Prom- ise Me” was ended. The sweet voice of Estelle Pinkney Webster and the soft notes of Louis Vaughn Jones’ violin were hushed for the moment. Down the white-carpeted stairway (intertwined with oak leaves and pink-tinted ramblers) came the yellow and orchid and blue-clad attendants, Mrs, Alta Sumby, sister of the bride; Mrs. Lucille Banks and Miss Vashti Maxwell, of Baltimore. Before an embankment of palms and lilies and glowing candles, the groom and his jolly best man (George Hayes) stood, Mr- Alexander (the groom) trying his best to keep from look ing too happy, and failing alto- gether. And then the bride. Beau- tiful! beautiful! was the word on everyone's lips. And you found yourself wishing for still another word that might better express what you meant, Like some princess in rich white lace over net, with her long veil of princess lace fal:ing in graceful folds “from the orange blossom: trimmed coronet that added a regal beauty to her features; a quiver- ing lip, an eye that seemed near to tears, made Muriel look all the lovetier. Father Olds performed the brief ceremony, Samuel Mil- ton, the bride's father, appeared ever so proud of his new son. Mrs: Milton, the mother, was happy and radiant in purplish pink. Mr, and Mrs. Lorrie Milton. brother and sister-in-law of the bride, had come from Atlanta, Dr. and Mrs. Sam Milton, another brother and sis- ter-inlaw. had come from the West, The bride's baby brother, Dottie, was also there And a throng of richly-gowned women and smartly-dressed men, Mr. Scurlock was there and took pic- tures of the party. and everybody was glad. For 'twould actually have been a shame if such a beau- tiful scene had not been perma- nently recorded. The popular little teacher-bride cut her three-tiered wedding cake, took a took at the hundreds of handsome gifts, caught her beam ing husband by the arm and left for Montana with everybody's best wishes for a “happy ever af ter” life for Mr. and Mrs. Ray- mond Alexander. Among _ the many guests were Mr, and Mrs- Garnet C. Wilkinson. ‘he playing the part of a sort of handsome high-brow doorman..

Nobody’s surprised though. because the jolly Zephyr is one of those "22ers (Howard University law class of 1922). And they never stay long where you put ‘em. They seem ever on the up and up. sees There's no way in the world to keep from looking twice at slim Miss Martha Malone, one of the secretaries for the Parks Realty THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE WEEK ENDING JUNE 29, 1935 Company on Florida Avenue. Her eyes are dark and they dance when she talks. So you notice her first for that. Then there’s her hair.

Choo! choo! went a west- ward train. And now Miss Vida Porter of Howard Manor is in New Mexico, or rather, en route. Hampton Lewis, in Washington on a visit to his wife (Mrs, Unita Lewis, of the Census Bureau) is now back in Detroit, and that’s fine (oh, not for Mrs. Lewis, of course, but for the big old “Auto Town”).

They were on a very pretty errand (the sorority, I mean), But the members are modest, you know, and wouldn't want me to tell. ‘President Gar- net C- Wilkinson accepted the lit- tle donation, and on behalf of the board thanked the generous don- ors (there now. I've given the so- rority's secret away, but I know | you won't tell 'em I let it get out). ‘And you should have seen the smiles and heard the hand-capping of Judge Cobb, Attorney Hayes (George E.

They finally struck the same pace. And so the other Monday, when Dunbar “called it.» day” for 300 happy pupils. two pairs of Moseley hands reached out for their owners’ diplomas.

Muriel Milton's Wedding Gown Patterned After Indian Princess' Gown Miss Muriel Milton's wedding gown was a copy by Patan, French modiste. of the wedding gown as worn by Princess Ingrid of India.

Dr. Marshall Testimonial Takes Many from City By VIVIAN TURNER Many Washingtonians who attended the testimonial banquet given in honor of Dr. Carter Lee Marshall, former graduate of Howard University, now of New Haven, Conn., at White Tower Lodge, Pleasantville, N.Y., last Saturday evening, have returned to the city and are loud in their praises of the wonderful reception accorded them. A delicious ten-course dinner was served in excellent style. Dr. Graydon Howell' of New Brunswick, N.J., acted as the announcer when the "Postprandial Parle" (you may look up the meaning for yourself, as I did) took place. The address of welcome came from our own Dr. "Stud" Greene, after which responses were made by the following: Smallwood Ackiss, Marc Wheatland, Ether McNeil, Coach Bony Jones and Paul Piper; a recitation by "Stud" Greene, an address by Harmon Wilson and solo by Marc Wheatland. Then came the feature of the evening—"Why I Am Going to Get Married," by Carter Marshall, defending his action under cross-examination led by "Larry" Payne, of Cleveland, Ohio, as chief of the prosecution. Among those attending from Washington were: Dr. J. E. Trigg, Paul Piper. Smailwood Ackiss and James Scott. The committee on arrangements was composed of "Guy" Howell. New Brunswick. N.J.; "Ken" Duncan. New York, N.Y.; "Stud" Greene. Washington, D.C.; "Jack" Pettit. New York City; "Marc" Wheatland. Camden, N.J.; "Bill" Glover. Hamden, Conn.; "Larry" Payne. Cleveland, Ohio; "Mage" Aken. Freeport, L.I., and "Harmon" Wilson. of Columbus, Ohio. Such a good time was had in this reunion of the old bunch that they plan to have an annual get-together. Dr. Marshall is marrying June 29. and this testimonial banquet proved to be quite a send-off. He was also presented a handsome gift by the group. While speaking of marriages, let me say the marriage of Miss Muriel Milton and Raymond Alexander on last Saturday evening at the home of the bride, 1607 S Street, Northwest, was one of the prettiest this year. The couple left Saturday evening on an extensive western trip, going as far as California. They will be gone fully three months. / This Saturday will find a host of Washingtonians treking to Philadelphia to the joint weddings of the two daughters of Mrs. Anna Duncan Lofton. Grace Willna will become the bride of Dr. Carter Lee Marshall and Anna Laura will be united to Aubrey Sylvester Nash. June weddings took an upward trend this year. Question—Will Dr. "Pete" Johnson make his announcement before midnight. June 30? All the men who attended the barbecue picnic last year sponsored by the DePriest Fifteen will gladly welcome the news that bids are being issued by the members for their second annual celebration on Saturday. July 6, at the beautiful S. H. Dudley farm, Oxen Hill. Md. They plan to have a better time this year than last year. These are occasions when the fairer sex is left out—too bad! Here's hoping the weather this year will be made to order and that not one rain cloud appears. Members of the club are: Rufus G. Byars, Samuel S. Fletcher, Rob ert H. Harrison, Garnet C. Wilkinson W. L. W. Houston, Hon James A. Cobb, Dr. Herbert Marsshall, W. Ernest, Jarvis, Hon. Oscar DePriest, Capt J. G. B. Key, Tiffany Tolliver, Dr. S. L. Carson, Capt C. E. Gibson, Fred D.

This, of course, is an annual affair with them, and those who have attended their previous affairs know just what a lovely time is had on these excursions. Don't fail to join them.

Ickes, announced last week, simultaneously with the filing in District Supreme Court of Condemnation proceedings against a 13-acre tract near the Army War College. The project, which is intended to provide a model housing subdivision for coated, with spacious lawns, recreational grounds and gardens surrounding attractive, sanitary dwellings, will be located in the area bounded by M.

In resolutions adopted last October 22nd and sent to Public Works Administrator Ickes, the Southwest Civic body pointed out that the Southwest section of Washington had a great deal of undeveloped land and areas on which the antiquated structures were erected in the early part of the 19th century, which would favor this land being purchased at extremely low cost.

It is thus of farreaching significance, since a practice that is illegal in the tax-supported educational institutions of one state is doubtless, illegal elsewhere. Attorney Charles H. Houston of this city, recently appointed special counsel of the association, is in charge of this phase of the N.A. A.C.P. program and is planning to institute similar suits throughout the United States wherever Negro students are excluded from equal facilities in tax-supported schools and colleges.

NEW TRIAL MAY BE GRANTED IN MICHAUX CASE Justice Gordon Takes Under Advisement Motion for Another Hearing Justice Peyton Gordon took under advisement, Wednesday, a motion for a new trial in the $50,000 damage suit against Elder Lightfoot Michaux, famous radio evangelist. The minister was sued for this amount by W. Herman Luces, an aged man who claimed he was assaulted by the elder during a meeting in the auditorium of Garnet-Patterson Junior High School. A jury in the District Supreme Court last May brought in a verdict in favor of Elder Michaux. Attorney Ernest Dickson, who represented Lucas, argued in his motion for a new trial that the Rev. William Jernagin, pastor of Mount Carmel Baptist Church, and a witness for Michaux, spoke to one juror during the trial. Attorney Dickson stated that the Rev. Mr. Jernagin and the juror, David R. Lehm, white, had a conversation during the trial and discussed business relation. It was also pointed out to the court that a woman juror spoke to Michaux at the time of the trial and was friendly with him. The third point brought out for a new trial was that the verdict of the jury was against the weight of the evidence.
