Mother Held at Gallinger Hospital Under Mental Observation
DEATH EXPLANATION NOT SATISFACTORY
Police Report Attempt to Fire Home 2 Years Ago by Child's Mother
Circumstances surrounding the drowning of 2-year-old Geraldine Lattimore, 1325 Wallach Place. Northwest, were still being probed by police and homicide squad detectives up to a late hour Tuesday night. The child's mother. Mrs. Cleo Emira Lattimore, is still being held and questioned.
Little Geraldine was discovered Sunday by Margaret W. Eggleston, 10 years of age as she lay in little more than half-foot of water in the bathtub of her home. The child was looking for the baby to prepare to receive visitors. Coroner A. Magruder MacDonald, notified of the unusual circumstances of the infant's death, directed police to take the mother into custody and ordered her placed in Gallinger Hospital under mental observation.
Tried to Fire House
Mrs. Lattimore was arrested and placed under mental observation about two years ago, according to police, when she attempted to set fire to the Wallach Place house. Dr. MacDonald declared Tuesday night that the young mother had failed to give a satisfactory explanation for the child's being drowned.
She told investigators she did not know how the child got into the tub or who turned on the water.
Death in the electric chair was the sentence imposed by Justice Jesse C. Adkins on John H. Cummings, 27, 700 block of Seventh Street, Northeast, and Willett Marcus, 22, 1200 block of Minnesota Avenue, Northeast, in the District Supreme Court, last Thursday.
Marcus and Cummings were convicted of the first-degree murder of Joseph R. Wushnak, white meat truck driver, living in the 2800 block of Bladensburg Road, Northeast, on January 4 last. The shooting was the result of an attempted hold-up of Wushnak and a fellow employee. The pair are slated to die on December 3.

THOMPKINS TIFFS WITH D.C. HEADS
Recorder Fights to Thwart Consolidation of Office With New Court
Daniel Donovan (white), auditor of the District of Columbia, was assailed by Dr. William J. Thompkins as the center of opposition to a proposed new office building for the recorder of deeds, in an interview with a Tribune reporter Tuesday.
Dr. Thompkins, the District of Columbia recorder, is at present engaged in a tiff with the District Commissioners over the latter's plan to place the recorder's office in the new juvenile court building.
To show the antagonistic attitude which Mr. Donovan has taken toward the recorder's office. Dr. Thompkins cited the incident of the bureau's budget
"Forgot" Budget Plea
When the request for increased appropriations was given to Mr. Donovan, "he stuck it in his pocket and forgot about it." Dr. Thompkins asserted. This resulted in a tie-up of the money for the department.
It was through the co-operation of the Senate sub-committee that the matter was finally adjusted.
The aid of Representative Mary T. Norton, chairman of the House District Committee, has been sought by Dr. Thompkins in the hope that the commissioners will be thwarted in their attempt to consolidate the offices.
Cites Needs
In his letter to Representative Norton, the recorder said it was essential to have a separate office for the recorder of deeds for four reasons, as follows:
To insure the necessary protection to the public land records: to obviate the necessity of unorganized and costly dual supervision; need of a building especially designed for the recorder of deeds and office will be self-sustaining and will absorb the cost of construction in a few years. The building will cost not less than $300,000.

Local Officials Declare No Discrimination Will Exist During Jamboree
Reports that colored Boy Scouts would be segregated, the white Scouts quartered in the city and the Negro Scouts housed on the outskirts during the Scouts' Jamboree to be held in Washington August 21-31, inclusive, were denied Wednesday by local Boy Scout officials. The jim-crow rumo, originated in a New England paper last week.

Lin Drske, white, head of the District Council of Scouts, who is in charge of the arrangements for the jamboree, denied that Scouts would be jim-crowed during the convention. Plans have not been completed for the jamboree. However, there will be no segregation or discrimination against colored Scouts, he declared.

16-YEAR-OLD BOY SHOT BY POLICEMAN
A 16-year-old boy lies probably critically wounded at the Gallinger Hospital, the victim of a policeman's gun.
The lad, John R. Parker, 941 T Stret. Northwest, was shot and seriously wounded as he was running away from J. W. Hanrahan, white policeman, attached to the Second Precinct. The shooting took place in an alley between Q and R Streets and Sixth and Seventh Streets, Northwest, Saturday.
Stories Conflict
Although no official probe has been begun to deter him, hether or not the policeman was justified in the use of his revolver, the version given his superiors by Hanrahan and his fellow officer, L. I. Mason, white, differs from the story told by Parker.
The officers declare in their report that the shooting was the culmination of a lengthy chase through the streets on the vicinity, and that it was provoked by a threatening gesture on the part of the youth. They declare that he and several companions, none of whom have been apprehended were observed in an alley north of Q Street, between Seventh and Eighth Streets, on Saturday morning.

When the policemen arrived on the scene, the crowd dispersed those in the group running in different directions. Parker, the offi-

Urges Church to Return to New Testament
HAMPTON, Va.—In a rather unique plea Tuesday night before the Ministers' Conference, the veteran religionist and missionary secretary. Dr. Robert E. Speer, begged the ministers and laymen present to carry the church "Backward to the New Testament."
He was speaking on the topic—"Returning to the New Testament," but the phrase "Backward" to that part of the Bible which contains the teachings of Jesus and His great interpreter, Paul, seemed to give him greater power in his discussion.
"Let us go backward to the New Testament," he said "and recover the concept of what Jesus Christ can bring out of human lives. Let us go back to those early teachings which set up the Jesus ideals of manhood, and remind us again of what He did with 'common men.'"

The complete creed with all its members was in existence as early as the year 337, and the creed in exactly the same order end wording as we have it came into existence about the year 750.

Education As an Asset
to Success :
By THOMS E. BRIER
Schoo!s have closed for the sum:
mer months, Students who have
been scattered all gver the United
States and many other countries
are returning home. To them it is
a time to cast aside books and en-
ter a realm of joy, fun-maixing and
recreation. It is a time for them
to feel care-free. But to others
it ig a time to prepare for the next
year’s work. To the majority, edu:
cation has stopped,
These youngsters dream of suc-
cess. They think of the time when
they will be thrown into the world
to make a mark for themselves.
Little do they know what fate has
in store for them, How many of
us in the world today haa these
same dreams? How many of our
dreams came true? Has our edu
cation been a success to us? Can
we compare our prepitration days
with today? What have we done
that we wanted to do? Yet the
whee! of human sou's turns on, to
disappointment, to despair, to pov-
erty, to riches, to success,
We, too, have been carefree,
joyous and’ happy, even overjoyed,
when we received our dipion.a or
degree. But the heartaches were
to come. The world which we
thought ‘was waiting with out:
stretched arms for us to come and
help rebuild it did not know that
we even existed: Our education
meant nothing, for there were
those far greater prepared, suffer-
ing, wanting and waiting
The majority of studeats do not
realize what education is and what
it is used for, Many of them think
that jt is used to acquire wealth,
power and popularity. It is not
so. It is to make a man of you.
‘A man in every sense of the word.
A person who can reason, work out
problems and do a service to hu-
manity and the race. It does not
mean offices, stores or a very large
cliente!e on which one may usurp
the life's blood of his brother; but
rather, a place you can administer
to his ills, advise him in the right
channel and lead him on to a high-
er and cleaner life. Theve is no
education when there is no com-
mon sense to use with it- Philoso-
phers wil call this logic, hut what-
ever it is, it is aS important as a”
the learning we get- We some-
times are confronted with an edu-
cated fanatic—one who does not
use his practical knowledge with
his theory, We term him an edu-
cated fool. There could be no
phrase more appropriate than this
one. This type of man we do not
need in our social scheme. He
will not cause the race to acquire
the conquest that they have been
fighting for, He will not cause
the educational value (a= Dr.
Locke stated) “to triple itself.”
fe is a menace to society and
should be burned like the chstf.
But to the logical-minded person,
the person who weaves common

New Bison Athletic Club Will Fight Local Discrimination
TWELVE
New Bison Athletics Fight Local I
"Increased Interest and Cr nities Are Imperati President
By ART CARTER
Efforts to bring about better racial relationship through the sponsors of athletic contests will be one of the main objectives of the recently organized Hison Athletic Club, according to a statement by the president, Thomas J. Anderson, early this week. Mr. Anderson said: "If the South Atlantic area is to rival the East and West as a lavatory for he development of future Olympic talent, multiple opportunities for competition in the various sports and vastly increased interest in amateur athletics by the public are imperative needs. In some way we must discover a workable basis for promoting interracial good will through amateur sports. To assume that a victory over Jesse Owens by Earl Widmyer or vice versa in the nation's capital would precipitate race riots, seems to me an insult to our collective intelligence.
"To aid in the realization of these objectives is the goal of the Bison A.C." he concluded.
Hart Case Recalled
Mr. Anderson's statement is timely and, without a doubt, the mixed competition in athletics urged by him would add color and bring about larger gate receipts in the promotion of athletic contests in Washington, particularly boxing. The pugilistic industry in the amateur ranks suffered a stung from the green-eyed serpeant of race prejudice early this winter when Bishop Hart, ace Howard University heavyweight and C.I.A.A. champion, was barred from the local A.A.A. tourney solely because of the color of his skin.
The prevention of the recurrence of such an incident is one of the chief aims of the club. Mr. Anderson and his capable staff of officials which includes Dr. Edwin B. Henderson. Clarence W. Davis. Lawrence Cropp and Lois Williams is ready and willing to carry forth the plans of the new organization in this direction. Each man is well informed on the athletic situation in Washington comparative to systems in other large cities, particularly in the East and West.
Barred From Olympics
Mr. Anderson, himself, was once the victim of race prejudice in sports. Back in 1920 during the Olympic tryouts, Anderson placed fourth to the then "big three." Pat McDonald, Pat McGarth and Patrick Ryan, in the 56-pound weight throwing event but was not considered when the Olympic Committee selected the team to represent the U.S. abroad.
In preference to Anderson, the Committee selected K. M. McEarchen of the Olympic Club. Lieut. E. R. Roberts, U.S. Army, and C. U. Dandrow of the Boston A.A. Anderson, who represented the famous St. Christopher A.C. of New York, tossed the pellet 32 feet. 8½ inches to gain the place. Roberts and McEarchen placed fifth and sixth to him while Dandrew, although entered, did not compete in the finals. However, the three were chosen over Anderson.
The St. Christopher Club and friends protested the discrimination in loud terms but the Committee refused to heed its pleas and disbanded when a hearing on the matter was requested. That was back in 1920. Today, the same kind of treatment is accorded local athletes in Washington and nearby contests. How long will it last? The Bison A.C. expect to answer that question soon. Under the leadership of the elected officers, this writer believes, definite steps will be taken in that direction.
Starred at Howard
A native of Lynchburg, Va., Mr. Anderson, christened Thomas Jefferson Anderson, took elementary school work at Lynchburg, spent his prep school days at Phillip Academy, Exeter. New Hampshire and later came to Howard. At Howard he starred in football and track. His specialty was the field events, the weights, discus, javelin and shot put. At Howard commencement in 1925, he was voted as the man who had done the most for his class, was editor-in-chief of the Bison, and a member of the Board of Athletic Control. He received his master's degree in education at Columbia in 1929
Mr. Anderson taught in Coatesville, Pa., and Indianapolis, Indians before coming to Howard as professor in Education in 1930. He served as the first colored supervisor of playgrounds when the position was created back in 1923, and returned to the job in 1931. At present, he works in the latter capacity.

JOHN HENRY LEWIS TO FIGHT ON D.C. BOXING CARD
Crack Light Heavyweight May Battle Gainor at Griffith Stadium
# 2. Financial Risk
Negotiations to bring John Henry Lewis, outstanding light heavyweight, to Washington for a bout the middle of next month were underway by John Carter, promoter for the Lincoln Athletic Club, early this week.
Plans to bring Al Gainor, knockout artist, here as Lewis's opponent were reported at a standstill late Tuesday, and Umardo Arce, an unknown fighter in these parts, was being hailed as a substitute for Gainor. Lewis, Phenix. Ariz., fighter, only two weeks a go knocked out Izzy Singer, white, in the first round of a 10-rounder.
The fight will be staged at Griffith Stadium if Carter is able to reach an agreement with Jos Turner, white promoter, who holds exclusive rights at the local ball park.
GEORGETOWN COPS PAIR FROM GRAYS
West-end Aggregation in 11-4 and 8-2 Decisions Over Potomac Nine
Lefty Whitlock's Georgetown Athletics moved forward in their quest for the District baseball title by adding two more victories to their long and growing list. last Sunday afternoon. The Potomac Grays were victims this time, by scores of 11:4 and 8-2. Bus Frazier and Virgile Cortes had the pitching assignment in the first game and collaborated to hold the Gray batters to 5 hits. The 14 hits amassed by the winners were divided between 5 Georgetown sluggers. Whitlock Ashford, Clark and Hood connected 3 times anniece, while Colbert garnered a pair of safeties.
Brown Hurls
Big Ed Brown toed the slab for the west-enders in the 5 innings nightcap but made way for Coates are the contest ended. Again Whitlock led the offense, this time being aided by Ott Butler. Bess shortstop of the losers, obtained 2 hits to equal the efforts of Butler and Whitlock.
F. Tyler's home run was the best offensive gesture of the Grays. The blow was a lusty smash though it was the only one collected by Tyler for the day.

Dear Dick:
I'd like for you to tell me once and for all time, just what is it that you have against Natie Brown?
I wish you would do something to straighten me out on this because it really worries me, although I know it shouldn't. I don't like to see a sports writer constantly riding somebody and I believe there are a lots of fellows, friends of yours, who feel the same way I do about this.
I've read some of them on their criticism of the way the Cleveland writers pan Walter Johnson, and I've been able to see just how they feel about it. And I can't help feeling that you are guilty of the same thing you and your constituents accuse the Cleveland scribes of doing.
Your Sunday article—in which you sang the praises of Natie and pictured him as the only mitt-manipulator now in business who is capable of "taking" Joe Louis—was a "bust" in the book of this observer. Your elimination of the two Maxes, Schmeling and Baer, was cleverly done, but not nearly as cleverly as you've started a crusade to be rid of li'l Natie.
You say it seems to you that Natie Brown is the only fellow around capable of giving Joe Louis any kind of a fight.
Well, I say you did that like an experienced boxer. Your "lead" was perfect. It only happens that Brown has yet to be misled by it. And if the local "champion" has any of his senses left since that Chicago slaughter, he won't be.
"About a month ago, Natie B. his retirement from the ring, but I would reconsider right now and somebody's hand in the upper straight weight league."

You know, Dick, when you talk like that it makes me think about how a guy would treat his mother-in-law. Why, man, in that Chicago fight, Brown was just like "Chicken Little." He thought the sky had fallen on him. And could you blame him if he tried to fulfill his promise and prayer. "Lawd, if I ever get out of here alive, I'll never have to call on you for this kind of help again?"
And say, Dick, don't you think you're taking kind.of.a chance? How do you know that Natie or some of his pals won't see through your scheme to rub him out? If he does he might take a chance at belting you once.
You know, you and Bill McCormick, and Pat Robinson and Buck O'Neill were responsible for that shellacking Natie got in Chicago. You guys all told him and the folks who read you that Brown was the real test for Louis; that he stood a good chance of stopping the Brown Bomber, and that Joe wouldn't be able to manhandle him as he had done so many other opponents.
You guys got Brownie to believe that. And what was the result? He came out of that fight with a face looking just like so many chopped up, cooked cows.
Now, in your Sunday article you admit that in that fight Joe succeeded in hitting Natie once. Then you are ready.
Now, Dick, oh Dick, would you expect Joe to be able to hit Jesse Owens more than once? Or Bill Robinson? I'm told that a new record for Bojangles' backward running was established that night in Chicago.
Say, which one of you is it, you or your editor that has relatives interested in the undertaking business?
Local Elks Sign Young High School Flinger

AZTECS SCORE TWO SHUTOUTS TO MAKE THREE STRAIGHT
Virginia Quicksteps Victims of Local Nine; Price Mound Star
GREEN VALLEY, Va. — The fast-traveling Aztec baseball team set something of a record here last Sunday afternoon when it took the measure of the Virginia Quicksteps in a double whitewash to accomplish their third straight shutout in as many games. Score were 5-0 and 4-0.
The Southwesterners had on the previous Sunday turned back the Arlington Elks by the one-sided score of 11-0. Jimmie Price, on the mound, gave up only 4 hits and kept them scattered.
Price again returned to the slab in Sunday's first game and aided Harry Jackson, ace right-hander of the District boys, to blank the Virginians. The shifty left-hander, however, hurled only the two final frames in this contest.
In the nightcap, Henson proved a puzzling assignment for the 'steps. He gave up only 3 hits over the route and struck out 4 of his opponents.

LOUIS SIGNED TO MEET LEVINSKY
Bronze Bruiser Listed for Chi Fight Against "Kingfish" in August
CHICAGO, Ill.—Although the minds of the promoters have not been definitely made up as to which of the two local baseball parks they will use, their assurance that a match between Joe Louis and "Kingfish" Levinsky in mid-August was forthcoming early this week. Levinsky, it will be remembered. made several disparaging remarks about the Brown Bomber earlier in the year when his growing popularity made him the logical contender for the championship in some quarters. It was also Levinsky who was accused of running out on meeting Joe when the proposition was put to him last Spring. Louis and Levinsky have both agreed to the match according to the word of Mickey Farr, matchmaker for Promoter Joe Foley, following a visit of the former to New York while the Louis contingent was in the East.

frequently did it?
One veteran observer, actively identified with the boxing profession for the last thirty-five years,
believes Louis compares favorably with any of the heavy sockets of bygone eras.
Can He Hit?
"Any battler who can pile up the amazing record of 62 knuckouts in 77 amateur and professional bouts doesn't have to take a back seat for any of the old-timers," he insists. "Louis's record is one of the most remarkable the ring has know. And it must be remembered that Joe hasn't had 20 or 45 rounds in which to stop his opponents, as the old boys did.

Inexperienced Morning Star Outfit Pasted in Griffith Stadium Tilt
A young. inexperienced Morning Star Lodge baseball team was forced to accept the short end of a 15-10 encounter with the Capital City Elks of Richmond. here at Griffith Stadium, Saturday afternoon before a slim crowd.
The Washington aggregation, composed largely of young players just out of high school, was obviously flustered at playing in the baseball park before a paid audience. Easy chances were bobbled, bad throws were frequent and runs were tossed away on the bases.
The visitors, on the other hand, played with far more consistency although the efforts of the locals at times showed them to be potential.

BALTIMORE, Md—Runt White's Hillsdale A.C. added two more victories to their 1935 list by taking the measure of the Bethlehem Gray Sox, at Turner Station, near here, last Sunday afternoon. The Capital City champions coped both ends of a double-header by scores of 4-3 and 4-3. Jim Dailey, newly acquired as as good as their conquerors. In this respect of loose play, the young District players were not the only offenders. Willie Hope, veteran first baseman, and Hymie Curtis, catcher, were guilty of numerous errors while the relief pitching of Sam Lacy was woefully lacking in effectiveness. Bill Fauntroy, manager of the D-C. antlers, played a sterling game, both offensively and defensively, despite a leg injury that had him in severe pain throughout the proceedings.

Hughes in Form
Jimmie Hughes was on the mound for the 'Dales in the night-cap, the result of which was in doubt right up to the last inning.

World Champion Face Boxing Body's Ultimatum to "Fight Or Elsie"
NEW YORK — That James J. Braddock, recently crowned heavyweight champion of the world, would fight in defense of his title within the next six months was assured early this week following announcements made by the New York State Boxing Commission. Braddock has been ordered to fight not later than December with the understanding that if he refuses to do so, the commission would order him into a fight, refusal of which would automatically vacate his title.
It is very likely that Braddock will fight according to the ultimatum of the commission. His failure to do so would mean forfeiture of the privilege of selecting his opponent. Should the commission be forced to name the opponent, Braddock would in all probability find himself confronted with the necessity of facing Joe Louis.
HILLSDALES PLAY GEORGETOWN
HILLSDALES PLAY GEORGETOWN
D. C. Champions Open "Grudge" Against Westenders at Colesville
Age-old rivals will hook up at Jackson Park, Colesville. Sunday, when the Hillsdales take the field against the Georgetown Athletics in a twin bill. The first game is stated to start at 1:30 o'clock. Georgetown and the 'Dales have been leaders in local semi-pro diamond circles for the past five years and have always occupied the principal spotlight whenever play for titles is spoken of. Both teams have always been strong and meetings between them usually offer baseball of the highest calibre. Sunday's twin bill will take the form of the opening of a "grudge" series inasmuch as competition between the two teams for the past two years has been evened up. In 1983 the west-enders took the 'Dales into camp in the play for the Tribune trophy, and last year the LeDroit Parkers came back to trim the 'Towners.
August 4 Set As Date For Tourney Opening
Invitations have been mailed to the Hillsdale A. C., the LeDroit Tigers, the Oriental Tigers, the Georgetown Athletics, the Aztec A. C., and the Anacostia Athletics to participate in the Tribune City Championship baseball tournament which is slated to begin August 4.
Final plans will be completed at a meeting to be held in the Tribune office, 920 U Street, Northwest. Monday, July 15, at 8 a. m.

Southwest Clan Evens Score With Columbia A.C. After First Game Setback; Rain Balks Smithmen in Single Loss to Fighting Trojan Nine
The league-leading Oriental Tigers took it on the chin again Sunday from unexpected Tri-State quarters when the Columbia A.C., duplicated the feat of the Morning Star Elks and snatched the first game of their double-header with the Prides of the Point on the latters' Second and R Streets, Southwest diamond.
The Columbians grabbed a 12-7 decision before bowing in a 10-2 nightcap. Blackfoot Scriver, one time ace of the Orients, was the mound victim of the cellarites. He was nicked for 14 hits while his mates were being held to a well-scattered eight by L. Jackson. Columbia hurler.
The Southwesterners garnered four runs in their opening game of the nightcap, however, enough to cop the decision and gain an even break.
LeDroits Stopped
The same turn of events took place out on the Twenty-sixth Street and Bennings Road. Northeast diamond of the LeDroit Tigers, second place holders-on. Cleo Smith's charges took their first setback under their new management at the hands of the scrappy Trojan outfit.
Clyde Williams, portside ace of the Warriors, hurled steadily to gain a 9-6 decision in seven innings. Rain halted the proceedings and prevented playing of the second game.
The young Trojans garnered 11 hits, which netted them four runs in each the third and fourth innings and another in the sixth.
A sensational running catch and spectacular throw to second base to complete a double-play by Gene (Deafy) Taylor. proved to be the saviour of the Morning Star Elks in their 9-8 victory over the Rajah-DePriest nine at Sixixthe and Clay Streets, Northeast, Sunday. Taylor, playing centerfield in place of Manager Bill Fauntroy, travelled far to his right and pulled down a drive that was about to soar a low fence in left center field. Runners on the crowded bases had nearly completed the circuit when the substitute outfielder wheeled to throw to the mid-cushion. The ball barely beat the scampering return of the runner to that base. The runner on third scored to bring the Rajahs to within one run of the eventual winners. The final out was effected on a grounder to Red Briscoe at short.
Cubs Twice Trounced
The D.C. Cubs were humbled in both ends of their bargain affair with the Cardinal A.C. dropping the first encounter by the one-sided score of 16-0 and the finale by the equally as one-sided margin of 25-7.
The Cubs were held to two hits by Robinson in the initial fracas but managed to garner 12 as their share of the late afternoon tilt. Forty-one hits were collected by the Cardinal in the two games. Of these, 17 found their way into the first game and 24 were cracked out in the nightcap.

Walker Field Athletic Head Would Begin Annual Series Monday
Local teams desiring to enter play for the Walker Stadium Diamond Trophy have little time left to register according to an announcement made by Percy (Runt) White, instructor at the Walker Stadium play center, early this week. White expects to begin the series on Monday.
It is the hope of the Walker Stadium director to have eight teams in the league, in which event games will be played daily at the high school field. With a smaller number of teams, play will be reduced to three or maybe two times weekly.
White is anxious to receive the applications of the Aztecs Myrtles, D.C. Cubs, Trojans, Willow Trees, Cardinals and others. He may be reached at the Walker Stadium any evening from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m.
Lee or Bland to Face Cherner Nine at Park

The Motors 'emam is reputed to be strong and the clash with the 'Dales will in all probability be a test for both outfits.

D.C. YOUTH TO BE AIDED BY NEWLY ESTABLISHED NYA
New Government Agency to Give Employment to Over Half Million
Several hundred young men and women here between the ages of 16 and 25 will be given employment on works projects when the National Youth Administration, recently established by President Roosevelt, puts its program in operation, it is estimated.
Employment will be provided for youths in connection with the various projects that are to be set up by the Works Progress Administration. Work on these projects will be limited to youths in families on the relief rolls. Hours of work, rates and wages are to be adjusted so as to enable each person to earn $15 per month. regardless of the amount earned by the head of the family on a works project.
To Take Census
A national census of the status of all youths in the United States between the ages of 16 and 25 is to be taken, using competent youths within that age group to carry on most of the work. A number of youths here are expected to assist in this project. One of the outstanding objectives of the youth administration is to give financial aid to students unable to attend high school or college. This assistance will be provided in the form of work scholarships, which are expected to be similar to those given to college students by the Federal Emergency Relief Administration.
To Receive $6 a Month
Boys and girls who are 16 years of age or over and are unable to attend high school for want of money for carfare, lunch and incidentals, in families which are eligible for any form of public relief, will receive an average of $6 a month.
High school graduates who are unable to attend college without an opportunity to earn some money through part-time work will be provided with employment on a work-relief basis at an average of $15 a month. Allotment of work-relief jobs to a college will probably be based on the total enrollment of the college. Under the FERA the number of jobs was based on 12 per cent of the total enrollment of the college as of October 15, 1934.
College Grads to Benefit
College graduates also will be aided. Those who are unable to find employment and are unable to continue with graduate work at college unless they are given a chance to earn additional funds through part-time work, will be provided with employment on special projects for postgraduates on a work-relief basis.
Another important objective of the youth administration is to develop job-training and job-placement facilities for unemployed youth. This part of the program will be carried out in co-operation with the United States Employment Service and all existing public and private agencies which can contribute to the solution of the unemployment problem. The aim is to place youth in stable, continuing, private and public employment at as early a date as possible.
To Aid Half Million
10 Aid Hall Million
The youth administration will also make serious efforts to coordinate and co-operate with all college and university employment agencies to find work for college graduates. An immediate program to be developed with the view of finding employment for as many of the graduating class of 1235 as possible.
The national program is expected to provide work relief for approximately 150,000 youths throughout the country, high school aid for 100,000, college aid for 120,000 and job training for 150,000. It is estimated that this program will cost about $50,000,000 during the first year.
The National Youth Administration will set up in each of the 48 states a youth division, to be administered by a state director. Plans for administering the program in the District of Columbia have not been announced. It is expected that a director will be appointed here alo.
Orcels to Mrs. Georgiaana Goins who has charge of the Ladies' String Orchestra at the YWCA.

Welded so tight that even Mr. Wilkins will have a hard time trying to break the link...Nuf sed or hinted... FLASH...Miss Florence Williams, the lass who was thought too young to get married by our country clerk has at last been sealed to her heart throb...Tighter than glue, so help me, so help me... FLASH...Miss Rosalie Hayes, who resides on one end of the fair city of Alexandria has at last walked the middle aisle with a Mr. Raphiel Barber...It is getting so bad that it looks as if yours truly may have to parade the aisle to keep up with the times...Well, here's good luck to all of 'em, and so help me, they will need luck and plenty of it..

X man seems to be living over in Alexandria these days with Julia and Anna Wilson. It seems as though the Washing-ton girls are out of town or is Freeman in the clique?
...The Sunday midnight show several weeks back was a complete flop. To begin this tragic tale we might say that the dear director of the hometown shows puts the same so-called stars on at every big show...Every week one glances across the placards around town and spies the familiar names of the Misses this and the Misses that put before the public as big stars of Little Harlem (Queen Street)...Both of 'em was a complete washout at this show...We would advise Mr. Dove to go out a little farther and seek some new talent for the good of the old cash box and the entertainment of the people who attend the weekly midnights...FLASH...The Inter-City Athletic Association headed by Tribune Columnists will stage a big show the middle of the month bringing together KID FLASH (the writer) and THE ALEXANDRIA BEARCAT (Morris Murray) for the benefit of columnists who receive black eyes in the line of duty...All entries are welcome to help put over the show that might be given if the plans already made are on the level and not a bunch of hot air like you fill balloons with...The association is headed by one Mr. Harry Alexander who resides at the Washington Tribune Office...This lad is really talking the thing up and we may have a good size crowd...Don't let me down Harry on this...
"Give Him A Break"
The Junior Elks' Band Concert under the direction of Mr. John Henry Jackson was a huge success BUT the crowd present seemed to go simply wild over the assistant director. Mr. Leon Smith famous among the Alexandria music world...Mr. Smith seems to have that extra something that puts more pep into any concert when he waves his magic baton before it...This columnist as well as the Alexandria public would like to see Mr. Smith have a wee bit more say or power to direct a little more of the numbers rendered on the next program...Come on everybody and let's talk up the votes...Incidently Mr. Smith has formed a brass section in the form of a dance orchestra. It is composed of two young ladies and about thirteen young gentlemen...Here's hoping them a happy success...Before I close we have a little correction. Several weeks ago this column mentioned the fact that Mr. John Staunton would at last parade from Dunbar with his walking papers...That was wrong, Mr Staunton will not come out until next year...It appears that he would like to come out on an even number or as near that as possible (Six years or will it be five years and a half?...Glad to make the correction...This column will continue to correct such errors with pleasure...Cheerio.

LIVE AND LEARN
By JOSEPH C. OVERTON
The clock of life is wound but once
And no man has the power.
To tell when the hands will stop,
At late or early hour.
Now is the only time you own;
Live, love, tell with a will;
Place no faith in tomorrow, or
The clock man then be still.

Wonder why Mattie Barnes left him out in the cold?...Myrtle Hatton is now a patient at Gallinger Hospital. All of her friends should go down and cheer the young member of the Youngget Set.

Love is a funny toy; when it is broken, it can be mended only by a boy...Now that the taxi strike is over and busses run along the car line late at night, this is no reason why Joseph Miller couldn't help Helen White from trucking out U Street Sunday night about 3 a.m. Too bad the young man was broke...James Wright has some rivals now since the boys around the pool room found out his girl friend's name...Ruth Williams has hopes of hooking up soon. Pity the poor gentleman who will be on the other end. This depression is too much, isn't it, Ruth?...

One of the films depicted the 369th Infantry of the 92nd Division—the former "Fighting Fifteenth" National Guard of New York City—in action on the battle front the late Lieut Jim Reeze Europe and his famous jazz band, the embarkment of the "Oid Fifteenth" from Brest on the return to American shores, and their victorious and glorious welcome home as they marched up Fifth Avenue, reviewed by Gov.

HEALTH SURVEY
(Continued from Page 9)
108 girls, or 1 out of every 4 girls examined were over 10 per cent underweight.
Tuberculosis Examination: No evidence of the adult type of pulmonary tuberculosis was found in any of the 209 children examined. Of the 83 children who showed positive skin reactions to the tuberculin test and were X-rayed, 18 showed X-ray evidence of the childhood type of tuberculosis, or tuberculosis of the tracheo-bronchial glands or nodes. In all eighteen the tuberculosis process was either completely healed or healing.
These eighteen children are entitled to observation for a few years, the report states.
More Physicians
The Public Health Committee of the Southwest Civic Association recommended that 9 half-time physicians; 1 full-time and two half-time ophthalmologists (eye specialists); 12 full-time nurses; 9 half-time dentists; and 12 dental hygienists be added to the School Health Inspection Service; and that more school dental clinics be established to more adequately provide for children of the junior high age. The Committee also recommended the institution of a 10-year plan of examination of school children for tuberculosis to include he routine administration of the tuberculin test and X-ray examination of positive reactors to the test on entrance to the first grade, and on entering junior high.
If the finding of this study warrants, the committee recommended the final enactment of legislation to make compulsory the administration of the tuberculin test and X-ray examination at advisable regular periods in the school life of each child.
The following physicians comprised the public health committee of the Southwest civic body; Dr C. A. Walwyn chairman; Dr George L. Johnson secretary; Dr C. W. Wade and Dr. Donald M. Harper.

The village has been somewhat lively during the past week, in spite of the fact that many of its inhabitants have made exits—some to summer school, some to Europe, some to the sea-shore and various other places. The "stay-at-homes" who are finding "porechville" rather attractive and interesting were besieged with visitors passing through enroute to and from the Louis-Carnera pugnistic engagement and of course many informal "get-to-gether" parties were arranged. From present indications, this week-end finds many "rucking" to Atlantic City and nearby beaches for a breath of sea shore air and a dip in the wild ocean. Sparrow's Beach, Colton and Benedict are making arrangements to take care of the large crowds expected.
Did you go on the delightful cruise down the Potomac which the Appomattox Club sponsored last Friday evening? If you did not you really missed a treat. The good old "S.S. Southport" had been rigged up for the occasion. (By the way, do you know that this is a mighty nice boat—excellent dance floor, three well appointed decks and an attractive interior with lounges and easy chairs. Mr. Eiland is the manager in charge and is cultured, courteous and quite nice to deal with. More cruises should be planned.) But getting back to the club, the cruise and the guests. "Twas a pretty sight 'believe you—me' when that boat pulled out to see the jaunty sport costumes and the sheer and dainty organdies worn by the ladies and the flannel, ducks and seersucker suits worn by the men against the blue of the ocean. The club members were quite "nautic" with their "ship a hoy" caps. Pulling the last minute guests in and seeing to everything was Charlie Carter. Arriving on the boat—a few glimpses—Leonard Hyman and John Albert, acting as wonderful hosts, Mrs. Ethel Holland, Mr. and Mrs. Kaymond Savoy, Mrs. Brown Messrs. Parker and Price. Proceeding further, Mr. and Mrs. William Duraney were seen Thelma with a gorgeous hand-knitted sport costume made by herself; Attorney Edward Beaubain quite nifty in his linen suit and dark shirt accompanied by Miss Luhu Jackson; Dr. and Mrs. Gorham Fletcher; Tiffany Tolliver with a chic visitor, Miss Williams from Roanoke. Va. Miss Vermeile Turner, stunning in embroidered canary costume and large canary hat; Mr. and Mrs. Fred Pelham, she is as affable as ever; Miss Ida Mae Hall, quite charming; Joe Birch, telling a fairly story to a sweet little thing; Mr. and Mrs. Henry Ellis, Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Beaubain, Mr. and Mrs Ocean Madden, Mr. and Mrs. Archie Freeman, Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Popel, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Deans, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Turner, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Christian, Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Patterson, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Gardner, Walter Taylor, Messrs. Glenn, Hicks and Gardner. This list of course constitutes only a few of the 350 guests aboard. But suffice to say "twas mighty niggle."
I understand that Washingtonians turned out in full at the Louis-Carnera bout. With the many familiar faces around it seemed that U Street had been set in Harlem. Seen among the many people were: Mrs. Justice Green, Mrs. Sadie Engram, Mrs. Alice Cornish, Mrs. Helen Curtis, Miss Selma Stockton, Mrs Emma Green, Mrs. Frances Garvin, Mrs. Marjorie Hopkins, Miss Lucille Johnson; Messrs. John Carter, Joe Birch, T. Ashe, Walter S. Turner, Earl Douglass, Attorney Perry Howard, Dr. W. A.

Dr. and Mrs. W. A. Goodloe continue to be very genial hosts to their many friends who drops in from out-of-town. Their home, over the weekend, was the scene of many little gatherings. Cocktails and cavar were served in their attractive recreation room. Among the many visitors partaking of the Goodloe's hospitality were Dr. O. L. Borland of Detroit, Mich. Dr. James J. McLendon of Detroit, Mich. Mr. and Mrs. Clifton Hardy and Mr. and Mrs. Regional Waddell of Chicago, Ill. Mrs. Dorothy Beckley, Miss "Skippy" Marie McLarin and Miss Ermeine Lucas, of New York.

"GUN TOTER" IS SLAIN BY MAN HE SHOT
Coroner's Jury Exonerates Killer Shot in Knee
A fifteen-cent "fade," the loss of which called for the hurling of a charge of "crooked crap," precluded the slaying, last Thursday, of Milton (Blackmouth) Henson, 36, 3112 Sheridan Road, Southeast, by Leroy Millede, 37, 2633 Douglass Road, Southeast.
A plea of self-defense, launched by Attorney John H. Wilson in behalf of Milledge, resulted in the freeing of the latter following an inquest at the District Morgue Friday. It was the second time in a week that Attorney Wilson had successfully represented men accused in homicides. Israel Hunter, 1312 Fourth Street, Northwest, was enunciated last Tuesday in the killing of Washington Miller, 1210 T Street, Northwest.
Victim Had Gun
According to the story told at Friday's hearing, Henson "toted" the gun with which he first shot Milledge and was later shot himself.
By the evidence Milledge was playing in a dice game near Douglass Road and Robinson Place, when Henson arrived on the scene, a revolver and holster strapped around him.
"Calling" the hand of Milledge, who at the time was in possession of the dice, Henson bet the "shooter" fifteen cents and lost.
Cheating Charged
Immediately, witnesses stated, Henson cried out accusing Milledge of using "loaded" dice. He whipped out his pistol, according to the testimony, and fired at Milledge, the charge entering the right knee.
In the ensuing scuffle the wounded man wrested the weapon from the grasp of his alleged assailant and returned the fire. The wound was fatal.
Corroborative testimony was presented by Sam White, 2628 Douglass Road, Southeast; Herman Richardson, 3628 Douglass Road, Southeast; James Richards, Lyman Green, four who admitted taking part in the game and Headquarters Detective Sergeant John C. Dalglish.

BOY SHOT
(Continued from Page 1)
cers report, tossed a Gladstone bag to the ground and fled north through the alley toward Rhode Island Avenue.
Retrieve the parcel, the officers state they took up the chance of Parker. The scout car followed the youth through alleys and streets for several blocks, when Hammershan got out of the automobile and continued the pursuit on foot.
Reaching the alley in which the shooting occurred, Parker is said to have looked over his shoulder and, seeing Hammershan galancing on him, reached toward his pocket "as if he were armed."
Parker told relatives Tuesday night that he had been chased by the policemen, but denied that he had made any motion toward his pocket. He declared that when he was shot by the officer he was in the act of picking up his cap which had fallen off his head. The Gladstone bag, according to police, contained clothing and personal belongings valued at close to $70, the property of Nell Kinnison, white, 1416 Twenty-first Street, Northwest.
Capt. James E. Bobo, commanding officer of the Second Precinct, stated Wednesday morning that he contemplated investigating the circumstances surrounding the shooting just as soon as the case against the boy is disposed of in court.

COUPLE MARRIES
ON 10-YEAR-OLD
CERTIFICATE
It was exactly ten years, one
month, and three days after he
took out the license that Peter
Thomas. 68 years old, was mar-
ried to Olivia Butcher, 58. The
ceremony was performed Tuesday
by Rey. E. Thomas Broadus, 4726
Sheriff Road, Northeast:
The unusual marriage came to
light Saturday when the license
was returned to the clerk's office
in the District Supreme Court,
Because of the practice of the
Marriage License Bureau of de-
stroying applications after a year
and a half, the addresses of the
couple at that time could not be
ascertained.
Bride Non-Committal
The license was dated May 22,
1925. and bore the stamp of Col.
W. A. Kroll. who was then in
charge of the bureau.
When asked by a Tribune re-
porter. Monday, why they waited
ten years to get married, Mrs.
‘Thomas said that it was a personal
matter and none of the public's
business: The couple now live at
4719 Kane Place, Northeast.
Rev. Broadus, the minster. could
give no reason why there had been
a-ten-year lapse between the is-
suance of the license and the per-
formance of the ceremony.

On the Right Foot
Proponents of the highly controversial subject of teachers holding two jobs gained an opponent on the Board of Education when Benjamin L. Gaskins newly elected member, indicated he was approval of teachers holding one side jobs.
The matter came to the attention of the board when a protest was lodged against a white teacher of music who also taught in a musical institute. When Mr. Gaskins was informed that it was rule of the board to permit teacher to work on two jobs at the discretion of the superintendent, he stated that the rule should be changed.
Later Mr. Gaskins stated to the Tune that he opposed teachers holding two jobs, and he asserted that if the receive sufficient salary for teachers there should be no necessity for outside work.
Another subject that the new board member is interested in is multiple employment in families. In many instances two and three in one family are teaching while deserving and capable men and women are unemployed.
The Tribune has always been opposed to multiple employment and of teachers holding two or more jobs. Mr. Gaskins is starting off on his new duty in the right foot and his efforts in the direction will gain the plaudits of hundreds who are barred from the job because of several teaching members in one family.

Tribune Cooking School
Washington housewives are showing their appreciation of the Summer Cooking School sponsored by The Tribune by turning out in large numbers each evening, despite the fact that many of them would be more comfortable at home setting on front porch or out for a spin in the family car. When the plan was first suggest home thought summer was certain not the time of year to conduct a school of cooking. Not only was the weather too warm, but the mere mention of cooking suggested heat—which is not a popular subject now-a-days. However, the hundreds who attend the first sessions returned with friend and all are enthused over the marvelous and refreshing menus they learned can be prepared in summer in a really cool kitchen. Washington home-makers are to congratulated on their ready acceptance of the modern in house keeping. The Tribune is more than pleased with a response received at each class. All world loves a lover, but it takes bristly, clever and modern wife to keep her husband a lover—and that is no better way to turn the trick through his stomach.

We never heard of them until they broke into print with criticisms of the one organization that is doing most for
the welfare of the Negro race. First we don't like their foreign names, second we doubt their sincerity, and third we believe their entire program of subversive propanda is communistically inspired. If these young women really want to do something to aid the Negro's cause there are hundreds of ways other than criticising present groups. We don't trust Greeks bearing such gifts.

Race Distinction Versus Race Discrimination
The Negro in Maryland, as elsewhere, has been sleeping on his rights, and has lacked courage and organized purpose to contend for equality before the law which is guaranteed to all citizens without regard to race or color.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has decided to concentrate its efforts upon race discrimination rather than race distinction. Race prejudice is so strong a passion with the American people, that it exacts separate handling of the two races in matters involving intimacy of social contact, but under the fourteenth amendment differentiated treatment on account of race or color is forbidden. Hitherto the N. A. A. C. P. has devoted much of its strength and resources in combatting race distinction, but now prudently treds softly on that pedal. Thus much time and energy was spent on combatting residential segregation with little or no effectuality. Much money and talent were wasted in attempting to force the attendance of colored students in a particular high school in Gary, Ind., in face of the fact that under the constitution of the state separate schools are permissible. The July number of the Journal of Negro Education, published at Howard University under the editorship of Dr. C. H. Thompson, contains a most interesting analysis of the results of testing the legality of separate schools before the courts. The general conclusion is that a frontal attack on separate schools as such is apt to fail since the Supreme Court has sanctioned such provisions, but every case competently brought to test the requirements of substantial equal accommodations for both races is likely to obtain a favorable verdict.

RECENT N.A.A.C.P. VICTORY
UPHOLDS PRINCIPLE
The recent victory of the N. A. A. C. P. in the Maryland case is in harmony with this principle. A similar test was made in North Carolina but the case was thrown out on a technicality. The state of Maryland makes no provision for the professional education of Negro youth against the opportunities of white youth in the University of Maryland. The Maryland Court has ordered the admission of a colored applicant to the University of Maryland, pending legislation forbidding coeducation of the races or providing an equivalent offset for qualified Negro applicants. West Virginia and Missouri have set aside a sum of money to defray the expenses of Negro applicants in more liberal states, for the type of education afforded white youth in the state but from which Negro applicants are excluded. There is little doubt that if this issue is judicially and judiciously tested similar ranglements can be affected in all states forbidding the co-education of the races. This is a task to which the N. A. A. C. P. might well devote its chief energies and resources with hope of constructive results.

MARYLAND COURT KILLS
GRANDFATHER CLAUSE
Maryland is a border state and seems to be the battleground on which racial issues are tested. It was at Antitem in Maryland and Gettysburg near the border of that state that the Confederate forces were routed in their northward movements and the tide was turned in favor of the Union and freedom for the Negro race. The Court of Appeals of Maryland was first to declare the grandfather clause in the constitution of that state unconstitutional. It was this same Court of Appeals which outlawed Jim crow cars for interstate passengers in the famous William H. H. Hart case. This is the only instance in which a definite and effective decision has been registered affecting the rights of Negro passengers. And now this same Court of Appeals will shortly be called upon to pass on the University of Maryland Case, which, we may take for granted, will be decided in the Negro's favor. No thoughtful or sensible person will suppose for a moment that either Maryland, North Carolina or any other Southern state will establish co-education of the races in the present state of the public mind, but equal accommodation of education facilities or at least a semblance of equality, will be the outcome.

MARYLAND HAS BEEN
CONSISTANTLY PROGRESSIVE
Delaware is a border state and further North than Maryland. This diminutive state has never had separate cars or attended disfranchisement of the Negro, but like all other Southern states and indeed all Northern and Western states with a considerable Negro element, Delaware has separate scholastic provisions for Negroes. The issue of a Negro entering the University of Delaware has never been raised. It was only in the past two years that a Negro has been admitted to the Bar in the state of Delaware. I remember distinctly when the admission to the Bar was fought out in the City of Baltimore, more than forty years ago. I can also remember that about this time white teachers were supplanted by Negro teachers in the public schools of that city. The state of Maryland has been consistently progressive in its attitude towards the rights and privileges of Negro citizens when the issue has been competently and persistently pressed.
The Negro in Maryland, as elsewhere, has been sleeping on his rights, and has lacked courage and organized purpose to contend for equality before the law which is guaranteed to all citizens without regard to race or color. It is encouraging to note that the N.A.A.C.P. will now undertake to stir the race to a realizing sense of its rights, opportunities and privileges under the law which it has so long let lapse by default.

THE WAY OUT
At the risk of doing violence to my reputation as a gentleman I find it necessary question the popular belief that Mrs. Roosevelt is a tried and true friend of the New people. The task is not one to be undertailightly. So widespread is the theory that motives of a lady are not to be looked in that—look he's bragging again—it is a reserved for the brave.
Mrs. Roosevelt's reputation has been gained chiefly because of her willingness to spar her piece at various gatherings. Contrary the old maxim, the First Lady's words are well chosen that they serve to obscure actions.

Those who remember the first dazzling day of the New Deal will recall the fanfare trumpets that heralded the establishment of "model" rehabilitation town at Malden. WV Virginia. Nor did the pres agents forget add that Mrs. Roosevelt was behind the project despite opposition of the landlords we live on high rents and bad accomodations. What they did forget to add was that project was a lily white affair and that groes are barred from its sacred environs, cannot venture to speak for the Negro peopl but I refuse to award palms to this kind friendship.

Nor did the press agents forget to add that Mrs. Roosevelt was behind the project despite opposition of the landlords who live on high rents and bad accommodations. What they did forget to add was that the project was a lily white affair and that Negroes are barred from its sacred environs. I cannot venture to speak for the Negro people but I refuse to award palms to this kind of friendship. Rather it seems to me a bolstering up of plain old fashioned segregation and certainly it will add nothing to the current struggle to break down racial lines.

Probably the truth about this strife which Italy is fomenting with Abyssina is that it is Mussolini's effort at diverting Italians from a consideration of conditions at home. Like all the European countries which are under dictatorships, the outside world knows of Italy only what its authorities want known. Recently the curtain was lifted a bit and a British newspaper correspondent tells his observations. The Italians, he say, are not in favor of the war in Africa. Neither is Mussolini popular. These both seem to be true. It is an old trick of rulers to involve their people in foreign wars in order to unite them against somebody else, and thereby save their own unpopular selves.

Abyssinia Proves to be the Fly In International Pottage
BY MACK CAMERON
The writer recalls reading somewhere of the Frenchman, who lived in Paris during the French Revolution and did not know that there was a revolution, nor that there was a Napoleon. The finding of a comparable example today—in connection with current events—is evidently unusual. Mediums of dispersing knowledge of contemporary affairs have been continuously developed with the onward advance of scientific changes.
The radio has come. The "electrified" flash of the news by the press has almost universally made its appearance to facilitate the spread of international news. However, a person may live today in the midst of a surrounding buzzing with informative sources and divorce himself, without design from these sources by not taking time for general reading and by not making use of the various other opportunities available to increase his knowledge of contemporary and international affairs.
Within the past few months, much has been written concerning the frontier clashes between Abyssinia and Italy. More than a little is known of the history of Italy. Mussolini has recently been trying to reconstruct the supremacy that was once Rome's and to find for Italy her new "place under the sun." But in general, scant is the knowledge relating to Abyssinia and her pressing situation. "If wheat, cotton, oil, rubber, and tobacco were systematically exploited. Abyssinia would possess more possibilities than any other country in the world." A variety of climate—conducive to agricultural fecundity—and a richness in coal, iron, gold, copper, and platinum make Abyssinia economically desirable by capitalistic nations.
European Race for Control Begins
In 1698, C. J. Poncet, French physician, made the first expedition from Europe to Abyssinia. Then, for more than seventy years no recorded voyage was made by another European until an Englishman, James Bruce, sailed in quest of the sources of the Nile and landed upon the shores of Abyssinia. These two expeditions in due time turned the eyes of Italy, France, Belgium, England, and finally, Japan upon Abyssinia as a new zone for exploitation. And soon a frantic blaze for partitioning concessions, and treaties followed that is comparable to the partitions of Poland.
Abyssinia's first major conflict with England, was brought about by the imprisonment of Captain Cameron. British consul, by King Theodore in 1864. Later a secret treaty between Italy and England was made to determine the areas of political influence of these two countries and to further isolate England as the controller of Abyssinia's water supply. Italy's early operations in Abyssinia are often recalled with the defeat of Italian forces, in 1896, by King Menelik. This set-back however, did not lessen the fever to gain territory. Italy merely changed her tactics by cultivating and exploiting the rivalries between native rulers. By using a method of "peaceful penetration"
A Rebel Heart
By Perry C. Thompson
So those who say they wish me well—adwise me to appeal to the law. But what good is the law—to me—when those who make it are taught from the cradle to the grave that a black man has no rights which a white man is bound to respect?
From every injustice done another race, the bugler at dawn sounds the call "to arms."
But every injustice done me—I must turn my eyes to the skies and piously plead, "O, Lord—have mercy."
Others of my race may sing the song—and like it—but in me beats a rebel heart. I believe God helps those who help themselves.
Since the beginning of the world, if justice were denied men in the council chambers of the mighty—the hands of the oppressed have always reached for the weapons of war. Why they think mine should remain paralyzed—I do not know.
Cromwell is gone—arebel heart that lives on forever in the memory of men. A militant Christ carried His cross to calvary and so long as the world stands mankind will worship His courage. Tricked and in chains they dragged the Haitian Tousissant L'Overture from the field of triumph and dumped him in the prison ratholes of a foreign nation. but wherever brave men dwell they've heard Wendell Phillip's immortal tribute to this black rebel-
For me the muted lips of an eloquent Phillips may never speak, but with the help of God I shall forever sing the song of the Volga Boatman.
The tune is difficult to carry, the notes are weird and strange. God knows they are with almost every black man "stooping to conquer." But I'd rather my throat burst singing the African song of courage Meneek's black hordes humed at Adowa—than be a mocking bird blowing melody to the wind.
In me beats a rebel heart. Kill it if you can.
How Abyssinia appealed to the United States for aid against Italy was revealed for the first time by Drew Pearson and Constantine Brown in a supplement to their book, "The American Diplomatic Game."
she has forced Abyssinia to make these concessions; under the treaty of 1906, she was given the right to penetrate, economically, the interior from her colonial ports and privilege to build a railroad to connect Eritrea and the Italian Somaliland; also, the right to cultivate cotton. But the World War came.
Wilson's Move Halts Italy's Design
In 1919, Wilson's program of "self-determination of nations" indirectly halted Italy before she could realize her acquired rights in Abyssinia. It is a want to materialize these thwarted plans that is causing the strife between Italy and Abyssinia today—as manifested in a recent statement of Musolini: the most important problem confronting Italy's policy in Africa is Abyssinia.
Moreover, there's a more serious allocation of the reason for the conflict in Emperor Selassie's petition to the League of Nations on April 1, 1935. He asked that the League appoint a board of arbitration in case Italy fails to do so within thirty days, and stating further that the final aim of Italy is to establish Italian dominance over the Ethiopian empire.
Japan Furnishes Arms to Abyssinia
If all this is true, there can be nothing less than added complications due to the situation of conflicting interest of Italy and Japan, and perhaps, Belgium. According to information, "Japan dominates Abyssinia and has checked Italian operations." In 1930, under treaty rights, Japan was permitted to grow cotton; the treaty of 1934 provided for an influx of Japanese workers. Today she controls eighty per cent of the textile market.
There is a rumor that the availability of modern rifles to equip 300,000 Abyssinians, of planes, and of tanks was brought about by Japan. The precedence, however, was set by Belgium, the country that has a monopoly in alcohol, when she sent a military mission in 1930 to help the Abyssinians modernize their army.
Such movements—at least those of Japan—indicate that in case of armed conflict, Abyssinia will not be lacking in war supplies—that is if an undefeated Abyssinia will still mean economic dominance by the Japanese.
Selassie Makes Bold Statements to Italy
Therefore, when Emperor Selassie says, "We will not be coerced into according the satisfaction that Italy demands." we wonder whether it is mere bravery which causes him to take such a stand or whether it is the expected support from some other nation that motivates him to such an attitude —keeping in mind that Abyssinia has, so far, escaped imperialism only by "playing the interested powers off against each other." But even so, an Italy that can put on the field of battle 7,938,000 men, can mobilize 600,300, and can put in the air 1,507 military planes will surely call forth the best that is in Abyssinia, and this will have to be more than the antiquated army of Menelik and the tropical diseases that defeated the Italians at the battle of Adowa in 1896.

Loren Miller Hits Mitchell's Recent Outburst on Howard
To the Editor:
The Chicago bankers and gangsters who engineered the election of Congressman Arthur W. Mitchell have every reason to feel proud of their handiwork. If the legislator has missed a single opportunity of serving them since he took his seat it has escaped my notice.
And I am sure that if he has inadvertently missed a chance now and then to do the bidding of his predatory bosses all has been forgiven with the introduction of his resolution to conduct a "red probe" at Howard University.
The recent conference at Howard University at which a somewhat critical position anent the new deal was taken set the fireworks off. Not that the conference discovered anything that was not well known; it has long since been admitted by all but the professional officeholders that the new deal was the same old raw deal where Negroes were concerned. The alarming thing about the conference was that some Howard professors had the hardihood to suggest the junking of the outworm system under which Negroes had been victimized ever since the landing at Jamestown.
Nothing worries an industrialist more than the prospect that Negroes may cast their lot for social change. And nothing worries a politician like Mitchell more than the prospect that his master may lose their fat living and put him on short rations. He galloped to the rescue in short order.
LOREN MILLER
Anyhow, in our community we have been able to keep going the majority of local institutions that have made our people more contented, with more fraternal and neighborhood spirit, and with a reasonable measure of material prosperity. Until there is a depression of the spirit of the people, there can be claimed no com- collage. But let us once lose our spirit and we are worse off than without just material goods.

American Negro Literature today is producing some interesting and worthwhile products. My latest booklist for review in "Literary Alcove" articles includes "Don't You Weep, Don't You Moan" by Richard Coleman and "Johan's Vine Gourd" by Zora Hurston. These will be discussed in their relationship to the general pattern of American Literature in the near future. While both of these books have been out for several months, they are still interesting examples of contemporary literature dealing with the American Negro.
Gordon MaCreagh has a book he calls "The Last of Free Africa." Evidently it is his opinion that Mussolini will take Abyssinia from the Abyssinians. More will be said concerning this question later-
****
The art of book reviewing and the art of literary criticisms, it seems to me, should be vitalized in contemporary literature—closely related to life. "The Literary Alcove" is interested in living literature, in living authors, in books that contribute material of definite value to the contemporary picture of modern life.
One of the finest objectives of mankind is the attainment of the more abundant life. We all can progress by living completely, fully. The literate and the aspirant to successful living will do well to study two books. One of these is Henderson's "The Children of Good Fortune," the other is Hyde's "The Five Great Philosophies of Life." It is interesting to note that the United States of America has at last found a President with sufficient intelligence and vision to use, popularize and endorse the phrase "the more abundant life."
***
One way for an aspiring your author to gain an audience and immediate publication for his work is by joining a writers' club and by contributing to anthologies Laurel Publishers are planning a new anthology of prose and poetry to appear in 1936. Further information may be obtained from the editor of this column.
****
The art of literature must always be closely related to the art of life because literature is life in its most complete form. A spirit with understanding and vision interprets life and makes it literature. The art of poetry is the art of life in a compressed form. The art of the novel is the art of life—life spread out on a broad canvas. The author is usually the spectator or the director, his characters the actors. If an author waxes philosophical like Thackeray or Bazzac in some of his pages if he raptures in lovely description at times—then so much more so is his work an enduring addition to the sum total of the world's thought.
It is a noble, a worthwhile, a beautiful thing for the creator to have a creed, a living motive that moves on to the attainment of a complete perfection and splendor every word he writes.
The artist in living words must understand and utilize the restraints, the decencies of his craft.
As Marguerite Steen so well says:
"There are certain things that the novelist who aspires to success must outgrow, certain ardours he must learn to curb, certain restraints and decencies which he must practice, and above all, certain public prejudices that he must, outwardly, at least respect. He has to learn that there are certain matters with which the general public simply will not be bothered; he has to make the discovery that the public mind is essentially indolent. He has to make the great decision between pandering to this indolence, and so becoming popular, or defeating it so cunningly that it is unconscious of defeat, and so becoming eminent. He has, in fact to learn an infinite patience with the great, sleepy; easily-flattered; easily-offended arbiter of his fate; if he aspires to success in his art; and, by success, I do not mean the success d'estime so dear to the artist. so expensive to his pocket but the success that brings means to beautify life, to enrich the temple of the mind."
SURRENDER
Lord I come with my burden of sin
To be burged and purified within,
I have no power of my own
That can change this heart of
stone.
Tho within there is a desire.
I must come to Thee for the holy
fire
That will set my soul ablaze
And change my sinful ways.
And make life a shining light
That will burn thru the blackest
night.
Within this clay dwells a soul
That I must submit to Your control,
Lord there is nothing that I can do
Until I surrender my life to You.

A period of inflation would suit the average man. The rich, that is, the ultra-rich are without a way to spend their money except by play and travel and luxury-spending. But once a kind of inflation comes the rich will want to buy real estate and other tangibles. Then will come a boom in rea. estate and a kind of prosperity that the professors call temporary.

The Lyric Voice
An Occasional Column of Verse Conducted by COLEMAN G. DUCKETT
Few poets have ever been able to write sympathetic, or even very intelligent poems about children Swinburne—of all poets:—could do it, as could Blake and Wardsworth. while our own Laureate's "Little Brown Baby Wif Spa'kin' Eyes" is a classic of its kind. The difficulty arises when we insist on regarding children as miniature adults when, of course, they are nothing of the sort, but are personalities in themselves, with a comprehension of values all their own. Mr. Oddel seems to grasp this essential fact in the following:
UNMASKED
By Curtis Odell
I met a charming little miss;
I said. "The gift of age is this:
To press the tribute of a kiss
That youth must pay as duty."
She was a maid of many parts,
As brown as ripened almond hearts,
With all the airs and cunning arts
That are her sex's beauty.
"Well, if you must," she said, "you
will.
But why do you not wait until
Such times when kisses may fulfill
the God intended;
The purpose God intended:
What are they, cool and undefiled,
Caught from the lips of untaught
child.
What are my kisses, meek and
mild.
With Passion's self unblended?
Yet all around are ladies who
Would trade their hope of heaven
to
The man who came to win or woo
That is our precious caresses.
Their amorous caresses,
The while you beg from such as I
A gift which only love should buy
And never Cupid blesses.
When he draws near you turn
away.
Your shoulders shake, your cheek
is gray.
As if the fiend on Judgement Day
Had come to crowd your woe...
When ladies smile, you look quite
dense
And raise the coward's weak defense:
To seek a kiss of innocence.
O take it, sir, and go!
And in this sonnet, which
breathes a tender love for children,
the same author gives us a glimpse
of the same young lady perhaps,
just after her arrival, no doubt
"trailing clouds of glory."
NURSERY SNAPSHOTS
Shadows, come not even close to her.
And Sun, send you no burning ray to beat
Where she lies sleeping; let an
aura, meet
For fairies, never round; and zephyr stir
An elfin breath across the comforter
That folos the fragile, wondrous thing...so sweet
That she seems not of flesh, nor cold, nor heat.
But Heaven's highest glory, wreathed in myrrh.
Miracle of miracles! How this infant life
May hold the destiny of a race in thrall.
Whence other lives may spring armed for the strife.
From her, who lies so helpless here, and small...
How, from these tiny breasts, there yet may rise
A man-child with great visions in his eyes.
We hardly think it necessary to beg for indulgence to devote this entire column to poems addressed to that "sprightly race" (our children) of whom the poet, Gray, sang without apology. No true lover of poetry—and of children—would object to the theme; and "The Lyric Voice" is not designed to, nor desirous of, pleasing any other:
In Spring, when earth is lush and green
She weaves her wreaths to make you glad—
The woods are clad
In loveliness, to form a scene
To please the eyes of Jacqueline.
See how the freighted fruit trees lean
With blossoms, honey-filled, to grow
Rich row on row
Of pear and peach, but each. I ween
Is sweeter for my Jacqueline.
Is sweeter for my Jacqueline.
In Summer, robins primp and preen
Upon the bow of tree and bush,
There is a hush
In mellow throats behind the screen
Of song, to wait for Jacqueline.
In Autumn —ah, then Nature's queen
Sits on her throne in regal view,
As brown as you
Sits on her throne in regal view,
As brown as you
Almost! 'his then the breezes keen
Blow ringlets round my Jacqueline.
Then Winter comes in stealth to
glean
His ancient harvest too, at last.
But every blast
He sends to sing his deadly paean
Is tempered to my Jacqueline.
The seasons wear their wonted
sheen—
Each is her friend and comforter.
And all the same to her.
With love and life and hope be-
tween.
To thrill the heart of Jacqueline!
We need a new world but we'll
have to make it out of this old one.

Imagine the plumpest, juiciest, tree-ripened peaches you could buy in the market. Imagine such peaches, smothered in fresh cream and fine sugar . . . then smoothly frozen into a delicious ice cream. That's "fresh Peach" as Breyer makes it—and only Breyer can make it—because it's blended and frozen by exclusive Breyer methods.

PEARLIE'S PRATTLE All About Lovely Ladies and Big, Bold, Wonderful Men
A June night and Julia. She in her white lace wedding gown with a long tulle veil and a quaint, lace orange - blossom - trimmed bonnet that made a delightful frame for her slim young face. The tail, kindly minister, Rev. H. B. Taylor; the pink lace-clad bridesmaid (Miss Louise Alexander); the faithful best man; and Mr. Louis Alexander waiting to give his daughter into the careful keeping of her bridegroom, Mr. Arthur Luther Prileau. And Julia's mother, lovely in blue. Even the flowers seemed to sense the fact that something pretty (and most important for Julia) was happening in the Alexander home on Q Street. For the graceful snowy lilies and giant white peonies held their fragrant heads and made a vivid contrast with the dainty "Baby's Breath" that was intertwined with 'em. You kissed the bride (you wanted to kiss the groom too, but you thought Julia might object). You got a delicious dish of ice cream (with cake and candy and sit beneath the varicolored lights that cast rainbow-tinted shadows on the newly painted white fence with its shutter, green trellis standing erect at regular intervals. You marveled at the many gifts (some of 'em fell on the bride in a "shower" a day on so before the wedding). You stayed and stayed, loath to leave the lovely surroundings. The happy couple intended to start for New York before midnight, but doting admirers prevented. (They hid Julia's handbag with all their dainty contents.) Finally t he prank-playing friends relented and the laughing new-wedges left on a motor trip, taking everybody's blessing with 'em. Among those present were the Plants, the Simses, the Satterwhites of Q Street, Miss Alice Jackson, Mr. James Lucas and daughter, Ruth, Mrs. Sam Willis, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Jones, Mrs. J. Flipper Derricotte, Miss Marguerite Paxton, Mrs. Eleanor Singleton, Mrs. Harriett Fletcher, Mrs. H, B. Taylor, and charming daughter, Louise, and many, many more.

Miss Mildred Hall, of G Street, Northeast, of the dark, dark hair and classic profile, had a lot of us looking around a couple of times just to see how well she wore that yellow frock.
If things keep up there won't be a teacher in town and then we'll be able to break all the verbs we choose and nobody'll know the difference. Among those already gone or thinking strongly about it are Miss Helen Sparks. Mrs. Obzene Walker, Mrs. Mattie C. Lee and Mr. John Bright.
Maybe you were busy shooting fireworks over the Fourth; maybe you went off to a picnic at Carr or Sparrow's Beach. But not so Miss Gladys Mauldin. She spent the Fourth of July rearranging her name. The new husband is a dentist.)

Goodbye, kind old June. Not only did you bring us thirty days that were ever so rare but you brought us a bunch of bonny brides besides. Speaking of June brides it looks like July knows something too. The month is only a few days old and the word is already out that Miss Sarah Frazier of Fairmont Street

and Miss Theresa Washington of R Street, have already said "I do." The first to Mr. Julian Irwin and the other to Mr. Leon Galloway.

Look what they did to Rev. W. H. Thomas the other Friday evening. It wasn't his wedding anniversary or even his birthday. But a lot of Metropolitan's members (and others too) didn't give a rap for that. They wanted to have a party and they wanted the Rev. Thomas to be the honored guest. So they signaled Mrs. Thomas (the minister's wife) and at the appointed hour that host of happy well-wishers invaded the preacher's domicile and caught him unawares. They said a lot of good things about him (even bouquet-ed him into the bishopric, where a lot of us think he belongs). They piled his wife's hands high with gifts and then they gathered around the dining room table and ate their fill of wad and punch and ice cream. An, they didn't serve the repast one little minute too soon. Especially for Mr. Jefferson Coage. He made an excellent speech and after that—well maybe his mind was on what the other speakers said, but his eyes were on that appetizing salad. Mrs. Julia West Hamilton did the Mistress of Ceremonies act in her own charming way. Mrs. Clara Taliafero said some pretty words and so did Mrs. Emma R Browne, Rev. Wing, and Rev. Walden. "Twas long past time to start for home but there wasn't the slightest sign that anyone even realized it. And so they sat there and kept saying toasts to the Thomases. (Now there you go thinking the wrong thing. They "toasted" with lemonade, of course.)
Maybe it's her lovely dark locks, maybe it's her rich satiny complexion. Maybe it's the way she ashes her eyes so that they sparkle and talk even when her voice is silent. At any rate, one of the prettiest women at the recent Milton-Alexander wedding was the bride's sister-in-law (wife of Dr. Samuel Milton of points west).
Ran across Mr. "Tall and Handsome" Neeley (Henry H.) the other day. For all his wide smile and his broad ha. ha's Mr. Neeley is still a deputy in the U. S. Marshall's office. So you'd better be meek when he's around.
It happened at a tea in the pretty home of the smart looking Mrs. Josephine Kenney, of 1628 S Street, Northwest. Somebody was playing softly on the piano when all of a sudden some newcomer out in the hallway let out a terrible yell. (No the house hadn't caught on fire, nor had the "Detroit Bomber" landed a "left"). Somebody had pressed a button and the realistic looking lion that guards the Kenney home had burst right out of his cage and stood staring like mad in the screamer's face. Of course 'twas only a toy that was brought all the way from Germany by kinsmen of Mrs. Kenny. But nobody blamed the woman for screaming for she certainly thought it was "Leo the Second" himself. And if you think you're very brave just let that lion jump at you and catch you unawares. And if you don't let out a yell that would shame an Indian Chief—but you will. (That is, if you're an unsuspecting woman.)
Maybe Mr. Robert Syphax, of 1006 P Street, got away with that pretty surprise last Sunday. (He invited friends in to help celebrate his 31st wedding anniversary, and his wife, the popular Marie, wasn't supposed to know the first thing about it until the guests arrived. Well, maybe she didn't, but I saw her a week or so ago in a dark blue dress (red and blue print-trimmed) and a becoming Breton sailor, and she looked exactly as if she knew something grand was soon to happen.
Among the Washingtonians who couldn't be located in the Capital on Tuesday, June 25, were the following: Major Campbell Johnson.

C. V.—Should I remain where I am or is it best for me to take the move that I am contemplating?
Ans: A' visit to your sister's would be a very sensible move for you since the recent death of your husband. You should try to get as much rest as possible and try to regain your health for the nervous strain that you have just experienced has not been any too healthy. Stay away from your home for several months at least.
B. J. M.—Is there any use of me mailing the letter that I have written or should I forget about it?
Ans: No. Do not forget about the ambition that you have looked forward to since you began your high school training. Send the letter to this college and find out just how cheaply you can arrange to enter school and take a regular four-year course. They will be glad to send this information; You will enter their school in September.
R. G.—Could you tell me if my brother is living and if I will hear from him again?
Ans: Your brother is living in Salt Lake City and is known by the name of Jim Culpepper. He was never contented living in Texas as he did not seem to find the kind of associates that he cared for, but he is very happy in Utah and is in good circumstances.
J. J.—Is there any chance of some nice boy asking me to marry this year and should I accept?
Ans: One of your present suitors has this idea in mind at this time. You will marry in the fall of this year and your future mate bears the initials of “B. B.” Give him a little more encouragement for he has tried to get up enough nerve to ask you this question for three months.
E. S.—Does my husband intend to keep his promise to me?
Ans: He is on the level this time. He is going to provide for you and his child. He has not been altogether responsible for the

AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT IS
FATAL
HERTFORD, N. C. (ANP) — Attempting to retrieve his hat, Elijah Smith. 55 fell beneath the wheels of an approaching truck, here Wednesday afternoon and was crushed to death. The accident victim was the father of three children, who were burned to death last year when the Smith home was destroyed by fire.
way that he has treated you for he has a very near relative that has tried to make him break away from you too. Have patience with him for he is still a boy.
M. M. P.—Tell me is my friend truthful in the statement that she told about her trip?
Ans. Yes. She did meet a relative of yours while on a bus from Alabama to Texas and it seems that it was a brother of yours. You will hear from your brother later on in the summer. He is not permanently located at this time.
M. N. B.—Should I be concerned about what I think that my husband is doing?
Ans: Now is the time to think about this matter and put a stop to his running around. Place the cards on the table and tell him that he will either have to stop this affair he is having or you will walk out and let him do as he pleases. He will quiet down.
I. A. H.—Will I ever have any more money than I am making at this time and when?
Ans: You will get full time work in a department store and will make twice as much as you are making at present. Of course the hours will not be as convenient for you as your present job but the increase in salary will enable you to get out of debt and take a vacation the latter part of the summer.
A. B.—Will my mother receive a sum of money?
Ans: Yes. She will receive money around the latter part of this month from an insurance company. She is the beneficiary of your father's insurance policy.
D·M. R.—Will I be able to get the telephone put back in?
Ans: You shouldn't think of having your phone put back in when your husband can't afford to pay the rent. You will have to learn to economize instead of being extravagant as your husband is out of a job now and you should try to find work yourself and help him.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE WEEK ENDING JULY 6, 1935
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.
3 "Without sacrificing these two important safety features will they give me longer mileage, thus making them the most economical tires I can buy?"
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.
Firestone High Speed Tires not only give you more than 50% longer wear, but also lowest cost per mile. 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.
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.

Urges Appointment of Negro as Executive
NEW YORK, N. Y. — The National Urban League made a special appeal to Frank Persons, director of the National Reemployment Service, for the appointment of a Negro executive assistant in his office in order to insure a fair chance for Negro workers under the reemployment program of the Federal Government. "Unless this is done," declared T. Arnold Hill acting executive secretary of the League, "the probabilities are that the Negro will suffer from the same racial injustices which characterized the administration of the CWA in the past and the PWA in the present."
By specific examples Mr. Hill showed that Negro workers even now are being discriminated against on projects financed by Federal funds.

Touched by the philosophical indifference to her handicap reflected in her childish innocence, officials and attaches of the Riley Hospital made arrangements for the construction of proper artificial limbs and donated $50 towards their purchase. They will cost several hundred dollars. Her parents are on relief, the father being out of work for the past two years. There are seven children in the family.
SCHOOL SPACE FOR S.W. WASHINGTON URGED BY BOARD
More Classrooms Needed to Care for Low-Cost Housing Residents
Additional school space and recreational facilities to care for the 250 families and approximately 200 children in the Southwest section of the city were urged by the Washington Committee on Housing in a letter to the Board of Education, Monday. The added facilities are needed to take care of the increased population which will result from the erection of the $3,000,000 low-cost housing project in that part of the city.
Added Appropriation Urged
The report pointed out that there are only two schools in that vicinity. Syphax and Anthony Bowen both elementary, one is overcrowded and the other is carrying capacity enrollment.
The committee urged the board to ask a supplementive appropriation from Congress to cover the cost of needed class rooms, recreational rooms and a community center program. The report recommended six additional classrooms to Syphax School; two rooms for industrial arts and crafts, gymnasium and an auditorium with a capacity of 300 or 400 with dressing rooms and stage. This addition is proposed for the Syphax School.
Board Examiners Approved
The board also approved of a 60-page report on the health survey recently conducted at the Randall Junior High School. Members of the Southwest Civic Association headed by John T. Rhines, president, were in attendance at the board meeting.
The board approved membership of the Board of Examiners of Divisions 10-13 as submitted by Dr. Howard H. Long, chief examiner. The following were submitted: Dr. Long, C. C. McDuffie, Mrs. B. B. Scott, S. D. Matthews, Miss R. E. Weatherless who succeeds Mrs. Ethel H. Grubbs, Mrs. G. T. Peterson.
A more intensive character education program was recommended for Armstrong High School by Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent. Next year the character work will be confined to students of the 10B and 11A classes.
Tech Girl Wins Award
The board was advised of the awarding of the Kober Legacy award to Miss Ruby Brown, a student at Armstrong High School. The prize was $80. The permanent appointment of W. N. Rivers as assistant professor at Miner Teachers' College was approved by the board. A report by Dr. Ballon revealed that between 250 and 260 men and women were employed in the schools during the year through the Emergency Works Administration. The superintendent advised the board that the Home Committee had approved of a palm to raise had approved of a plan to raise high level. The bill now goes to the House.
WHITE HINTS AT REVOLUTION
ST. LOUIS. — At the closing mass meeting of the 26th annual conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Sunday, Walter White, the association's secretary electrified the 2,600 persons present by warning that "unless justice is given the Negro, he may be driven by desperation to the use of force.
"But we pray God that this may never happen as we know all weapons are in the hands of those who deny us a chance." This solemnly dramatic statement coming at the conclusion of a brilliant address in which the speaker reviewed the work of the year, gave details of the spectacular anti-lynching bill fight and asked support for the militant program of the N.A.A.C.P. was followed by a prolonged ovation.

An admirable display of courage and optimism in the face of severe handicaps is a virtue that will bring little Miss Alma Cleveland a welcome compensation, if a move started by her friends at the Riley Hospital finds a sympathetic response.
Alma, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Cleveland. 2860 Baltimore Avenue, Indianapolis, was born a cripple nine years ago, with rc hope that she would ever be able to walk. Skilled surgeons did what they could, but her legs had to be amputated to save her life.
Hope of being able to romp, skip and play like other children faded, but Alma somehow retained a genuine pleasant smile for those who met her. It seems a guardian angel must have told her to "Smile, and the world smiles with you."

A Keen Student
Aside from his rare fitness for the guidance of potential lawyers, Mr. Taylor has devoted much time to the technical study of legal education, has had remarkable contacts with leaders of thought in the legal field in which methods are changing with the age. Students share with the community in the anticipation of steady progress under his direction. Many desirable modifications in the general policy and program of the institution, for which the school has long sought, will doubtless be realized in the near future.
Seeks Summer Work
Following his natural instinct to render service to the student group in every phase of their development, Dean Taylor has been ardently working during recent weeks to secure summer employment for men and women enrolled during the past term. And although confronted by serious difficulties common to this period of general unemployment, the persistent dean knocks at every conceivable door that might yield to the urgent request of deserving young Americans who seek an opportunity for self-help.

In spite of Meddling, Recorder's Office Has Raised Efficiency
Despite the fact that his office has been meddled with since he has been here, Dr. William J. Thompkins, recorder of deeds, in a letter to Mrs. Mary T. Norton, chairman of the District House Committee, stated that he has raised the standard of efficiency and succeeded because "I can take it."
Dr. Thompkins also pointed out that the District Commissioners have not fully cooperated with his office and the lack of such intercourse has interfered and handicapped him.
The commissioners are seeking to block the erection of a building to house the recorder's office and are recommending that the office be placed in the proposed Juvenile Court Building. It is said that should this take place the commissioners would have supervision of the office and it would become the football of politicians. The plan of the commissioners to have the power to select the members of the Board of Education was blocked by citizens who saw in the move an attempt of politicians to dominate the educational system of Washington. Excerpts from Dr. Thompkins's letter follows:
"A public office should be run upon an efficient basis and its conduct should not be predicated upon mere hearsay. Incidentally. I have had the training and experience as an executive to place and maintain my office upon a high and efficient basis.
Of Service to Courts
"The Recorder of Deeds Office operates as a medium of notice and is the repository of evidentiary matters constantly called for by the local courts of record: namely: The Court of Appeals, the Supreme Court, the Municipal Court, the Police Court, etc. It will be seen therefore, that the Recorder's office is an indispensable part of our local judicial machinery.
"The Juvenile Court is a mere inferior Court of Domestic Relations, having no connection whatever with our major judicial organization.
"Under the proposer plan, effort is made to force our judicial machinery to adjust itself to a stilted architectural set up with no thought to public convenience and economy or to the protection and efficient conduct of this important public office. Such procedure as they suggest cannot be justified upon any rational theory of reason. On the other hand, the office shou'd occupy a building to itself."
DENY INDICTMENTS OF 3 BOOTBLACKS
NEW YORK — The Queens County grand jury has refused to indict three small bootblacks charged with homicide for the slaying of a sleeping itinerant, June 15, with a pistol stolen from a policeman.
The grand jury referred the case of the youngsters to Children's Court, where they were taken for arraignment.
The boys are Frank Damato, 11; his brother, Julius, 10, white; and Lisbon Laurence, 13.
"After hearing all the available evidence in the case," said District Attorney Charles P. Sullivan, "the grand jury decided that the best interest of substantial justice would be met by referring the case to the Children's Court for disposition. I, too, am of the same opinion—as the only possible indictment that could be returned is first degree murder.
"Through the jurisdiction of the Children's Court the boys probably will be sent to an institution where they will receive every assistance, both mental and physical toward affecting their rehabilitation." The boys were charged with shooting William Walsh with the stolen gun in trying to emulate "bandits."

Justice Gordon Overrules Plea in $50,000 Suit Against Michaux
A motion for a new trial in the $50,000 damage suit against Elder Lightfoot Solomon Michaux, radio evangelist, was overruled by 'justice Peyton Gordon last Thursday. The suit brought against the minister drew out of an alleged attack by the Elder on W. Herman Lucas during a meeting last winter in the auditorium of the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School. When the case was tried in the District Supreme Court before Justice Gordon last May a jury brought in a verdict in favor of Michaux. Attorney for Lucas claimed that two of the jurors knew Michaux and spoke to him during the trial. Lucas was represented by Attorney Ernest Dickson and Coward while Attorneys Belford Lawson and Jesse Lewis appeared for the e angelist.

Health Survey at Randall High Discloses Startling Condition Among Pupils BOYS FOUND MORE HEALTHY THAN GIRLS
Physicians Recommend 10 Year Program to Board of Education
The findings in a health survey on 200 school children in the character education classes of the Randall Junior High School conducted by the public health committee of the Southwest Civic Association were made public Monday when the committee appeared before the Board of Education and presented each member of the board with a 60-page report after having made a similar report to Health Officer Dr. George C. Ruhland last Thursday.
The Randall Survey was an outgrowth of a similar survey on 189 boys at the Jefferson Junior High School, white, by the Southwest Citizens Association, which was made public last October.
Students Produce Report
The Randall Survey started on February 27 and was concluded on May 15.
One hundred copies of the 60-page report which were minicoographed by senior students at the Cardozo Business High School before graduation on June 19, are being distributed to civic, health and professional organizations interested in the health of the school child. The examinations were made by volunteer physicians and dentists from the Medico-Chirurgical Society and the Robert T. Freeman Dental Society assisted by nurses from Freedmen's Hospital.
Examinations Thorough
In addition to examinations of the eye, car, nose and throat, teeth, heart and lungs, urinalysis, mental hygiene of problem children, and orthopedic examination for gait, posture and deformities, with the approval of both school and health authorities, the survey included an exhaustive inquiry into tuberculosis in children during the period of adolescence, modelled after statewide 10 year survey of children for tuberculosis instituted in Massachusetts by the Massachusetts State Department of Public Health.
First Tests in D.C. Schools
The Randall Survey marked the first administration of the tuberculin skin test on school children in the D.C. public schools, and 83 children who showed skin reactions from the test were X-rayed at the rate of 16 each week at Freedmen's Hospital. The tuberculin used and the X-ray films were donated by the D.C. Association for the Prevention of Tuberculosis, with funds raised from the sale of Christmas seals.
Outstanding Findings
Outstanding findings in the survey were as follows:
Eye Examination: 190 children examined. 17 or 9 per cent had apparently normal eyes; 113 were normal in visual acuity only; and 60 were deficient in visual acuity.
