Fisher Qu Grand Lodge to Claim Is Made That Go Committee Have So Financial U The right of the general committee on arrangement for an Elks' Grand Lodge Convention to be the sole sponsor of amusement and entertained during the period the Grand Lodge is in session will be brought to the attention of the Grand Lodge officers Dr. Charles B. Fisher, general chairman of the entertainment of the 1935 Grand Lodge, said this week. Inasmuch as the general committee has to post a guarantee of $1000 for entertainment of the grand lodge, and is charged with the responsibility of financing all entertainment for a grand lodge, Dr. Fisher contends that the Grand Lodge, as such, should not sponsor any entertainment whatsoever while it is in session and the guest of subordinate lodges.

The local committee had nothing to do with the promotion of these two events, nor did they derive any funds from the grandstand seats erected at Tenth and U Streets, Northwest and along Vermont Avenue. The seats were sold at seventy-five cents per seat and all of the money derived therefrom is said to have gone into the treasury of the Grand Lodge. Loss On Ball According to Dr. Fisher, the grand lodge voted that delegates might attend the ball free which resulted in un-predicted financial loss from that source. The general committee had anticipated a loss if delegates were admitted free and took steps to guard against such an occurrence (See DR, FISHER, Page 2) LIBRARY OF SCHRING PERIODICAL DIVISION WASHINGTON, D.

Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler of the Elks, was upheld in his right to name the general chairman of the arrangement committee for a grand lodge convention, when the 1955 grand lodge, in convention at Masonic Temple, rejected a proposed constitutional amendment submitted by Columbia Lodge, which would give the host lodge or lodges the right to name their committees and to elect their general chairman. The committees on law and revision recommended that the proposed amendment be rejected, and were sustained by a vote of the convention. Wilson Victor Another victory was won for the grand exalted ruler when Columbia Lodge's second crack at him in the form of a constitutional amendment, was also rejected. The lodge proposed that the constitution be amended so as to prevent the grand exalted ruler from being elected for more than one grand lodge session.

WILLIAMS WHIPS MASSEY CHICAGO, (ANP) — Holman Williams, advertised as the "Negro lightweight champion," after his defeat of Baxby Tiger Flowers here several months ago, decisively outpointed Lew Massey, white, of Philadelphia, here Wednesday night in ten rounds to win a unanimous decision of the referee and judges. Ex-Champion's Desire to Regain Title Evidenced by Seriousness SPECULATOR, N. Y.—A serious Max Baer, embracing a genuine determination to regain the heavy-weight title is to be witnessed here in daily training stunts in preparation for his coming meeting with the Brown Bomber, Joe Louis at the Yankee Stadium on September 24. Outwardly. Baer may appear to be only slightly affected by the THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, WEEK ENDING SEPT. 7, 1935 Looking 'em Over by SAM LACY With the Tribune Not long age I had occasion to print what a contemporary has appropriately called a "pan" letter, which in that fellow's parlance means no more nor less than a nice, big, juicy razzberry wrapped and sealed in a paper envelope. Although I am forced to admit that printing that kind of a letter is not nearly so easy as reproducing the following. I, also, would have it known that I appreciated the "ride" on which I was taken that time because I'm of the opinion the writer did me an honor. You know, we don't knock those for whom we don't have some respect. But enough of that "pan" mail, I was to get to this piece of "fan" mail which came in this morning's (Wednesday) bulk of office letters. It's from Castle Point, N. Y., where Arthur (Duck) Curtis, prominent local physician, is convalescing. And it bears the signature of that worthy, himself a former athlete and for many years one of Washington's keenest students of athletics in general. Read for yourselves. John and Jane Alden: "Your editorial on the sports page of the current Tribune is more than enough to compensate for this effort in writing when I should be taking my 'rest period.'" "The observation that Bill Robinson and Joe Louis just don't mix, is in my opinion too, well taken, certainly on the face of just what happened in Washington. Methinks, Louis's managers would do well to keep their charge from being misadvertised in the future in his trips to and fro. "You may recall that three years ago when Ralph Metcalfe visited New York for the Labor Day Games, he was 'hosted' (pardon my coinage, Sam), escorted, presented and what have you, by Bill and the most mediocre showing Metcalfe has on record in New York was made then. "I, too, have an admiration for Bill that borders on an idolatry—for more than 15 years I have paid 'toll' that I might help that feeling along—but as you would write—scallions to any who would let him 'tap,' 'truck,' or 'ride' his way in on a chap who has nothing in common with him—at least thus far. "As well look for Jimmy Durante to be introducing Bill Bonthron to New York, or Eddie Cantor telling Washington who Keith Brown or Bill Cunningham is. Mine is the hope, Sam, that if Cornelius Johnson or Eldace Peacock come to the nation's capitel it won't be necessary to import Bill Robinson or Rutterbeans or Buck and Bubbles to successfully introduce either of them to the press or the public." "Sam: Oriental Tigers Bow to Whitlock Aggregation at Jackson Park Lefty Whitlock's Georgetown A.C. baseballers, Sunday, added another victory to their list defeating the Oriental Tigers, 16-8, in a slugfest at Jackson Park, Colesville, Md.

No Clowning That much is, indeed, indicated by the solemnity and directness of his training maneuvers. Visitors to camp expecting a clowning show during Baer's diurnal glove jousts are due for almost complete disappointment and as the training period progresses and the Louis meeting impends the former champion indicates that he may become one of the most serious of Arthur Curtis.

LOUIS RETURNS TO POMPTON LAKES TRAINING CAMP Tan Torpedo Turns Down Several Other Spots; Hits "Hay" on Arrival By RUSS COWANS POMPTON LAKES, N.J.-Joe Louis came back to Dr. Joseph Bier's Health Training Camp to prepare for his battle with Maxie Baer at Yankee Stadium on the evening of September 24. Louis trained here for his fight with Primo Carrera, June 25, and considers the spot ideal for conditioning himself for his coming battle. Several efforts were made to have Louis change to another spot, but Joe desired to do his training here. One proprietor of a camp in Pennsylvania offered Louis's manager a fat purse if he would take his protege down to his camp and train, but he refused the offer. Seeks Rest Louis arrived at Dr. Bier's camp Thursday morning and immediately went to bed. The Brown Bomber had been on the go for almost a week and was tired. He was kept on the go during his two-day stay in Washington, D.C., where he was the guest of the Elks' convention. Another day was spent in Atlantic City where he was going continuously. $S_0$ he was happy to get back to the quietness of the training camp. Less than an hour after his arrival in camp Joe was buried between the blankets. He slept for more than 12 hours, got up and ate and then went back for eight more hours of sleep. He was trying to catch up with the forty winks he had missed. Blackburn Arrives Jack Blackburn, trainer of Louis; Larry Amadee, assistant to Blackburn, and Roy Williams, spar mate, arrived in camp Saturday night. Blackburn had Joe out for a six mile walk Sunday and Monday mornings. Tuesday he sent the Brown Bomber over the same route at a fast jog. He began boxing Wednesday. Although not scheduled to box until Wednesday, Louis, after shadow boxing two rounds Saturday, put on the gloves with Leonard Dixon for a one-round work-out. Weaver, Romaine Peters Win D. C. Title The District tennis championship for the second year in succession went to Warren Weaver of Baltimore, who defeated John L. McGriff of Roanoke, Va., on the Brunner Center courts, last Sunday. The women's championship was taken by Miss Romantic Peters of this city who trimmed her sister, Margaret, for the title. John Henry Lewis to Fight Bob Olin For Title ST. LOUIS. Mo—John Henry Lewis, sensational light heavyweight, who holds one decision over Bob Olin, white, has been promised a 15-round titula—bout with the champion sometime in November. The exact date of the fight has not been decided, according to Solly Kessler, promoter. Drake, Star Guard to Lead Morgan Bears BALTIMORE. Md.-The 1935 edition of the Morgan Bears will be lead by Carl Drake, all-American guard of Belmar. N. J. Captain Drake is in his senior year st Morgan and has participated in every game since entering college. During his three years or college football he has gained recognition either on the all-American or C.I.A.A. football teams. As a rule a big-mouthed agitator does far more harm than good. Hands, Now Completely Well, Being Watched; German Begins Boxing Hands, Now Completely Well, Being Watched; German Begins Boxing An examination of Baer's hands prove conclusively that his lsbors, which required constant hard gripping, have been successful in returning his important members to even greater toughness than ever before. His stiff punching tactics, in the ring and with the big bag, show, too, that he is probably never to be bothered with bad hands again. Alabaman Takes National Open Golf Play; D. C.

Reach Semi-Finals SPORT SCRIPTS By ART CARTER Tennis Tid Bits. INSTITUTE, W. Va.—The nineteenth national tennis championships of the American Tennis Association closed here, recently, on the courts of West Virginia State College, and, much to my sorrow and disgust, not a Washingtonian reached the quarterfinals . . . indeed, you could count the District entries on the fingers of your right hand . . . Frank Perkins, Julia Stratton and several others entered. ```markdown ``` Wilberforce University courts in Xenia, Ohio, will be the scene of the 1936 Nationals ... the midwestern University got the call over the bid from Tuskegee, Alabama, incidentally, the two Jackson Brothers, Nathaniel and Franklyn, the latter national singles champion, and the two doubles titlists are graduates of Tuskegee Institute ... both are natives of Laurinburg, North Carolina... Lula Ballard, formerly of Philadelphia, is also a student at Tuskegee. ... According to E. Harold Hopper, chairman of the press committee of the A.T.A., visitors from every state in the Union with the exception of Louisiana, South Carolina, Mississippi and Rhode Island were here for the event. Among the visitors were such notables as DeHart Hubbard, ex-broad jump champion; Lucus Jones, of the Atlanta Daily World; Chie. Washington, Pittsburgh sportswriter, a and Dr. James Wright, of Baltimore, who has been officiating at tournaments for over a decade. Franklyn Jackson was the people's choice for the singles crown after his brother, Nathaniel, was eliminated in the quarter-finals by Lloyd Scott of Prairie View, Texas. . . fans expressed the opinion that Harmon Fitch, chon stroke artist, and intercollegiate champion, would not have been a representative champion with his unorthodox stroking . . . the biggest aspect of the week came when Dr. Elwood Downing of Bonneville, Virginia, defended Eyre Saitch of New York. ... Lula Ballard lost her greatest opportunity to wrest the women's singles title from Miss Ora Washington, her doubles partner, who retained the championship for the seventh time. . . Miss Ballard, who repeatedly won the crowd's plaudits with sensational shots played too cautiously, finally dropping the match on her own errors. . . . with the sets danced at 1-all and games standing tied at 4-all, the netted four shots and drove three others out of bounds to give Miss Washington victory in the winneth and tenth games. . . JOE LOUIS MEETS THE PRESIDENT JOE LOUIS MEETS THE PRESIDENT Joe Louis got a big hand shake from President Roosevelt and an autogranched picture of the nation's leader, here last week during the grand lodge conclave of the Elks. A few minutes later Joe Louis, whose mighty punches have catapulted him in one short year into fame and fortune as the leading challenger for the world's heavyweight championship, was doing for some of the boys in the Civilian Conservation Corps, what the chief executive had done for him. This twenty-one-year old popular idol was busy autographing pictures of himself and other souvenirs for a score or more of CCC enrollees of about his own age, who had awaited his return from the White House. The party had been arranged for these young men of Company 1360 stationed in the nation's capital by Robert Jones, president of their Leaders' Club and for the past year clerk in charge of the company's headquarters, working in cooperation with Dr. W.

Writer Finds New 'Black Menace' In Tiger Roy Williams Dan Burley, Associated Negro Press Correspondent, Praises Chicago Boy; Latter, Now a Sparring Partner for Joe Louis, Worked with Kingfish CHICAGO.—In the press and excitement over progress of Joseph Louis Barrow, erstwhile Alabama boy, the average sports fan is apt to pass up the achievements of another lad who can throw punches with much skill and dodge them with much ability. For the past decade or more, he has been right up at the top, losing and winning, but never discouraged. That boy is "Tiger" Roy Williams, who fought for a long time as middleweight, and then invaded the ranks of the light heavies and the heavyweights because the boys in the lower weight brackets couldn't stomach anything to do with him under the ares. Roy, right now, is working as a spar mate in Joe Louis's "ompton Lake training camp. He trained with King Levinsky for that warrior's bout with Joe Louis. Since then Roy has many big bouts lined up, but few have materialized. At one time it was said that no man in his weight could hit as hard as Roy or take as much punishment as he. He went to Australia with a coterie of other pugilists on a tour in 1933. He returned to the States in 1934 and waged ring wars in and around Spokane. Washington, and British Vancouver with indifferent success until his return to Chicago a few months ago. Out of his long career of fights with such men as Billy Jones, and a host of other topnotchers, Roy's feud with Larry Johnson stands out. It was at the old Lincoln Gardens, a local cabaret, several years ago that the two got into an argument that threatened to develop into a slugfest without the mites. Williams-Johnson Feud I don't know what started it, probably a girl as some writers would have it.

'Black Menace' Boy Williams Negro Press Correspondent, latter, Now a Sparring Worked with Kingfish that for two cents he'd punch Roy's nose. The latter told him that there was "nothing between us" and that he was ready at any time. Previously the two had been good friends. Later they met in a battle, which while proving as far as supremacy was concerned in the ring, went a long way to show that the two former friends didn't like each other. Asked what he thought of Joe Louis' chances to win the world's title, Roy answered simply, "He's already champion." One thing about it, prizefighters aren't an envious lot. They willingly concede the nod to the fellows who can deliver and brag and boost him along in a manner quite commendable. No Drinking at Louis Training Quarters POMPTON LAKES, N.J.-Joe Louis is not a drinker nor does he approve of others indulging in spirituous liquors in the vicinity of his training camp. Being the boss of his camp at Pompton Lakes, the home of Dr. Joseph Bier, he put the clamp on the sale of liquors in the camp during the period he will be located there which will be until September 24. the date of his fifteen round fight with Max Baer; which takes place at the Yankee Stadium.

No Wedding Bells for Him THE BOXING CLUB acclaimed the world over as the next heavyweight champion. Louis denies that there is any truth to the rumor that he is to marry a Chicago stenographer after his fight with Max Baer at New York on September 24.

OPEN NIGHTS OPEN SUNDAY WILLIAMS PICKS JOE LOUIS TO FLATTEN BAER New York Sports Scribe Says Brown Bomber Can an Will Dispose of Max NEW YORK.—Joe Williams, veteran daily sports writer and highly regarded syndicate reporter, early last week described Max Baer as no match for Joe Louis, the Detroit Dynamiter. Coming as it does in the midst of advance publicity on next month's fight, the article is reprinted (in part) herewith: "What will Max Baer do against the Brown Bomber? The chances are he will do precisely nothing. At his peak he might have had a gambler's hope to score cleanly with his roaring right-handers, but I have a notion he is definite past his peak. "All Baer ever had was a thunderous wallop, which came to him naturally. He had no defense, no diversity of attack, no ring wisdom. I doubt, too, that he ever had any genuine enthusiasm for fighting. Certainly he never did anything to improve himself. Dempsey Worked "Jack Dempsey had little more if as much ability as Baer when he started, but he worked tirelessly to develop a well-rounded equipment and in the end he became a great champion. Gene Turney applied a similar earnestness to a very limited ability and reached the same heights. To these men fighting was a stern business and they worked hard at it. "Baer took what he had in the beginning, decided this was sufficient for all purposes and turned to the night clubs and the beaches to develop his fame along different lines. As a result he isn't much better now than he was when he started. Indeed, the evidence seems to indicate he isn't as good." Louis in € "Louis will probably flatten him in five or six rounds, depending on how long Baer cares to stay in there and take it. If he adopts the Levinsky formula and becomes unduly solicitous as to his physical well being he will go out much sooner. "By any reasoning it is difficult to concede him any kind of chance against this solemn looking Negro youngster with fists of dynamite." The Sports Roundup By DAN BURLEY (Associated Negre Press) George H.

He deplored tide "misunderstanding" between the grand exalted ruler and Columbia Lodge, which lodge had brought suit against Wilson prior to the coming of the convention, and had refused to participate in the entertaining of the convention. Officers who were elected to succeeds themselves at the stormy session were as follows: Wilson responded that he was willing to "write the faults of Columbia Lodge upon the sands and their virtues on the tablet of love and memory." S. H. George, grand esteemed leading knight; Joseph A. Brown, grand esteemed lecturing knight; John Freeman, esquire; John F. Ross, grand inner guard; Claude White, tiler, Edward W. Simons, trustee and Roy S. Bond, grand esteemed loyal knight. Columbia Lodge delegates, led by their chairman, Herbert E. Jones, whose contestancy for the general chairmanship of the general committee, filed by the platform as the grand exalted ruler feamed over and shook hands with all of them. While they were filing by the platform "burying the hatchet," the delegates in the audience stood and began singing such hymns as "Study War No More." "God Will Take Care of You." "We're Marching to Zion," and "Draw Me Neater." All of the above named officers were elected by acclamation. The other officers had been re-elected to succeed themselves earlier in the convention, by a suspension of the rules and the election of the officers at the conclusion of their grand lodge reports. Those officers were: Perry W. Howard. grand legal advisor; James E. Kelley, grand secretary; W. C. Hueston, grand commissioner of education. J.

The investigation now going on is the result of an economic con- ference called last May under the joint auspices of the Joint Committee on National Recovery and the department of social sciences, Howard University. Davis Denies Miller The meetings were held in the new Frederick Douglass Memorial Hall, and were featured by many prominent speakers of various political affiliations. Many of the speakers were officials of the United States Government. Dean Miller charged in his communications to the Interior Department that the "overthrow of the United States Government" had been advocated by one of the speakers. This accusation was denied by John P. Davis, executive secretary of the Joint Committee on National Recovery, who in a statement issued the Tribune this week, said: "No speaker who took the floor during the entire conference advocated the overthrow of the United States Government, either directly or indirectly. Of course, Communists were among the list of speakers. So were Socialists and Democrats." Opponents Bested "There were eight speakers directly representing the 'New Deal.' We were there as serious-minded students, anxious to find out what economic and social problems faced Negro America today. We made headway along this line. "It was only natural that with the presence of so many people with diverse views, there should be intellectual clashes of opinion. That Dean Miller and those who bore his rather reactionary point of view did not come out so well in the shuffle, is not the fault of any save themselves. They certainly had the opportunity to express themselves." Davis told the Tribune that he had read the statements, attributed to Dean Miller and others concerning the teaching of Communism at Howard, but that he did not know whether the dean had been correctly quoted by the public press or not. Charitable to Age "I have no desire to enter into a controversy over the internal affairs of Howard University," he said. "because I know practically nothing about them. All I wish to say is that so far as the recent economic conference is concerned, statements attributed to Dean Miller as to what took place at that conference are false and misleading. "If the public press has quoted Dean Miller correctly, I prefer to attribute his wholly inaccurate statements not to his veracity but to his advanced age, toward which I for one am inclined to be charitable." Referring to Dean Miller's charges that one of the speakers called for "the shedding of blood." Davis said: "From the context of Dean Miller's remarks, I believe he had reference to A. B. Brookins, minister and sharecropper from Arkansas. The Rev. Mr. Brookins is a militant sharecropper who belongs to the Southern Tenant Farmers' Union. He told the audience at the conference how a mob had shot 32 bullet into his home, wounding his granddaughter. Then this 60-year-old minister from the mob-ridden plantation section of Arkansas ended by quoting the seventh chapter of Hebrews: "Without the shedding of blood there can be no remission of sin." "For Dean Miller, who at his age should be a constant student of the Holy Bible, particularly that part about bearing false witness against your neighbor, the meaning of this biblical text ought to be clear. It certainly is outdoing 'Red-baiter William Randolph Heart' when one can find Communism propaganda in statements from the Holy Bible," Davis said. The economic conference at Howard University, according to Davis, was a sincere attempt to find out the facts about the economic status of Negroes in America. The responsibility for those who would attack such a gathering, who would seek to circum-scribe its deliberations, he termed a "heavy one." Has Personal Grievance "Negro public opinion will not long endure a leadership which indulges in vicious red-baiting under the mock guise of patriotism when it is well known that the only intention back of such maneuvers is to cut the throat of a personal enemy. "The place for a true patriot is in the front tanks with those who are fighting against the ever-increasing starvation of Negro masses. Until I find Dean Miller among those who speak out for these oppressed people, for the domestic, the sharecropper, the industrial worker, and not with those who would sabotage efforts on behalf of these unfortunate citizens. I will look elsewhere than to him for lessons in patriotism." Davis concluded. Says Article Was False In the last edition of the Washington Times of August 30 an article appeared entitled "Howard Red Tiks Are Upheld."

PARKER, Dean 1214 You Street, N.W. Phone, NOrth 8843 L. M. Hershaw, President L. R. Mehlinger, Secretary ist speak to the students. "It would be dangerous to prevent it. I want our students armed with objective information about every political teaching, whether it is Republicanism, Communism or anything else," the president was quoted as saying. The next day, Dr. Johnson addressed a letter $t_0$ the editor of the Times in which he devised that he had given the statements attributed to him by a reporter of the Washington Times. Denies Statement "The reporter, who furnished the materials for this article is well aware that he received no such direct quotations from me and that he received from me no statements; which would justify him in constructing and attributing to me such direct quotations within the context given," Dr. Johnson wrote. "The said reporter was specifically advised that I wished to make no statement until the conclusion of the investigation," the letter contained. On the basis of the quotations appexring in the Times, which Dr. Johnson says are erroneous, Dean Miller has written an open letter to the university president, in which he replies to the Times article. Taking for granted that the article in the Times was a true interview given by President Johnson, the retired dexn proceeded to admonish the university president further against what he terms "the teaching of Communism to young students." The idea of having the economic conference originated in the division of social sciences at the university early in the school year, when it was decided that its extra-curricular projects for the year 1934-1935 should be two series of discussion conferences, one on the problems, programs and philosophies of minority groups, and the other the economic position of the Negro at present, with particular reference to the policies of the New Deal. After approval, these projects were referred to the program committee with power to make all arrangements as to the details of topics, speakers and arrangements. This committee consisted of Dr. Ralph Bunche, chairman; Dr. Charles H. Wesley, Dr. Abram Harris. Dr. Alsin Locke and Professor E. Franklin Frazier. The first conference programs necessitated many shifts and changes due primarily to the inability of invited speakers to participate. Anticipating that there would be changes, the committees gave discretionary power to the program committee and to those in charge of each program. Reason for Joint Conference The practical reason given for the joint auspices of the second conference was the fact that after consulting several government officials desired as speakers for the Howard University conference, it was ascertained that the Joint Committee on National Recovery was planning a conference on the same subject. The decision was then made by the program committee and the social science committee to consolidate and hold this conference jointly. The resultant program was a combination of the original Howard program with the Joint Committee's program as drafted by Davis, each of them considerably altered by the necessity for substituting speakers for those originally wanted. Discussion on High Plane It was the original intention to have Secretaries Perkins, Wallace, Wilson and some delegated representative of Secretary Ickes on the program, and representatives from these departments were officially assigned. The statement issued by the social science division expressed the opinion that the discussion throughout was upon a high plane of academic imperiality, though with the additional practical advantage of having most issues discussed by persons who were participating in a practical public program connected with their point of view. No Proaganda "Although there was straightforward mutual criticism of competing programs and proposed situations, nothing was said of an overt propagandist character and nothing of a subversive character during either of these conferences, although in the latter detailed criticism of various New Deal agencies were made, sometimes by the official representatives themselves, with respect to the operation of these programs and policies in regard to the Negro, which was the main objective of the conference. "It was meant as a stock-taking analysis of the benefits and handicaps of the New Deal program from the point of view of the Negro masses. in whom Howard University is naturally most interested and for whom it has an obligation to prepare leaders" the memorandum contained.

Terrell Law School will open on October 7, in its own building, at 1922 Thirteenth Street. Northwest, according to a statement by Dean George A. Parker. Enrollment is already under way. The Practice Court of the school will be presided over by Judge Armond W. Scott, judge of the municipal court, who has recently been added to the faculty. The appointment of Judge Scott to the faculty of the school will mean much to the students who will have the benefit of his many years of experience as one of the most successful lawyers of the Washington bar and as a judge of one of the local courts. As chief justice of the Practice Court, Judge Scott, will succeed Prof. Benjamin L. Gaskins, a local attorney and member of the Board of Education, who has been assigned the subject of Evidence. This subject has, until this year, been taught by Prof. Louis R. Mehlinger, an attorney for the Department of Justice. Mr. Mehlinger, according to Deen Parker, will devote his time to the teaching of Equity Jurisprudence, Equity Pleading and Practice, and Domestic Relations. Other Changes Made Several other changes were made necessary by the absence of Prof. Theophilus M. Mann, a special assistant in the Interior Department who has been assigned to duty in Chicago. The subject of Bankruptcy which he taught will be given by Prof. Domingo A. Lanauez, who will also teach "The Legal Profession and Its Ethicos." Associated with Judge Scott in the Practice Court will be Otha D Branson, a member of the bar who will also act as chief clerk of the court. Other members of the faculty are their subjects are as follows: Augustus W. Gray, agency, wills and administration, bailments and审讯ers, and suretyships; Emory R. Smith, contracts, legal bibliography and insurance; Nathan A. Dobbins, criminal law and common pleading; Thurman L. Dodd, corps and damages; Philip W. Thomas, personal property and property; Horace O. Pollard, care and partnership; Dean George A. Parker, criminal procedure, constitutional law, and federal procedure; L. M.

WILSON (Continued from Page 1) prevent grand lodge officers from being elected at the conclusion of their reports to the grand lodge. Each year, after some of the officers have made their report, a member will move for suspension of the rules and ask that the individual be elected by acclamation. Three officers were elected in that manner this year. Amendment Lost The committee recommended its rejection, however, and their recommendation was sustained by the convention. There were ten proposed constitutional amendments offered from different lodges, and all ten of the proposals were rejected at the recommendation of the committee on law and revision. The majority were rejected because the lodge making the proposal had not complied with the constitution which requires that constitutional proposals be submitted to the grand secretary by May 1, of the grand lodge year.

ELKS (Continued from Page 1) Smith, according to police records, was arrested last Saturday afternoon when Mrs. Wilkinson, wife of the university registrar, complained that he had gained entrance to her home under false pretenses Admitted to Home Asserting that he had been sent to see her by a "Miss Nickerson" of New York, Smith was admitted to the Wilkinson home on Tenth Street by Miss Grace Wilkinson, daughter. After an exchange of words between Smith and Mrs. Wilkinson, it was soon disclosed that he was an impostor, Mrs. Wilkinson said. Mr. Wilkinson, who was on the second floor of his home at the time, heard the commotion and rushed downstairs to find his wife very much excited and disturbed. He trailed the man to the Masonic Temple, where he had a detective from Cleveland, Ohio, attending the convention, take him into custody, and later turn him over to the Metropolitan Police. Smith told police that he was a member of the Order of Elks, and was here visiting his sister, who lives at 612 Sixth Street, Northeast. He said he was a member of the Imperial City Lodge, of New York City. Before ordering his arrest, Wilkinson sent for J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler, and Joseph Brown, exalted ruler of the New York lodge, neither of whom could identify Smith. Smith was then taken to the home of his sister, where he again gave conflicting stories. On advice of the detective from Cleveland, together with two from Chicago, Wilkinson had Smith arrested and held for investigation Told to Leave City Sunday, C. Lucien Skinner interested himself in the case, and produced from somewhere, what he said was Smith's credentials from his Elk lodge. The credentials are said to have been verified by Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson. Skinner then produced two women, said to be sisters of the imprisoned man, brought them to the registrar's house, where a strong plea was made for his release. After conferring with local police, Wilkinson agreed not to prosecute the man if he would leave town immediately. Smith agreed to this and was escorted to the station by a Second Precinct policeman.

Hueston complimented Pearl Brown of Maryland, Jennie Sheperson of New Jersey and Mrs. Stubbs of Wilmington, Dela., for the work they had done as state directoreses. They are the only three women who function in such a capacity. JUDGE HENRY (Continued from Page 1) presentment, reciting the catalogue of abuses of the magisterial power, is pregnant with restrained indignation, and with promise of future even more serious disclosures to follow Sweeping Indictment For some days—in fact, since the first indictment was returned—it has been the further common assumption in City Hall that the bills of indictment as framed are not weighty enough to secure conviction even of the statutory misdemeanor, punishable by removal from office upon conviction. The Governor of the Commonwealth, being the "sovereign power" under the statute, would exercise the power of removal. In fact, it i_g freely admitted by some of the magistrates that the full letter of the law of 1927 has not been observed since its adoption, as a matter of convenience and economy. Criminal docket book costs $16 each, it was pointed out, and the entry of such cases as intoxication, vagrancy, corner lounging and other minor offenses would require some of the courts to procure a new, docket book every week or ten days. May Seek Quick Trial It is upon such grounds, it is believed, that some at least of the magistrates indicted will seek early trial next week, hoping to secure acquittal prior to the September primary election. But even this reflection, that the indictments are technical rather than actual, in that they do not profess to charge ulterior motive or malicious intent, is sadly perforated by the text of the presentment. Varied Career Judge Henry, Philadelphia's only Negro magistrate, has had a decidedly kalessodoscopic political career in which he has been, at various times, Organization Republican, anti-Organization Pinchotite, and, now, New Deal Democrat. He is generally recognized as the city's Democratic Negro leader. He is particularly strong in his home ward, the 30th. Henry, who is 61, was appointed magistrate on December 9, 1925, by Governor Pinchot, to succeed Amos Scott, Negro leader who had died shortly before. Henry, married and the father of several children, had been a political opponent of Scott for some time.

Carter resided at 626 Gresham Place, Northwest. Funeral services were held Friday from the Grice Funeral Home with the Rev, W. E. Carrington, of the John Wesley A.M.E. Zion Church, officiating. Interment was held at Arlington National Cemetery. Served In France Mr. Carter was a native of Danville, Virginia, but came to, Washington at an early age. For almost two decades he was employed as barber in the Davis Barber Shop, 600 block of D Street, Northwest, near the Police Court. During this period he had cut the hair of many lawyers and court employees, among whom was Judge Armond W. Scott, Municipal Court Judge. He was a World War veteran, having served his country in France. His survivors are his widow, Mrs. Ethel Carter; a mother, Mrs. Mira Carter, sister, Viola Carter; brother, Oscar Carter, and two uncles, Robert P. Carter of this city, and Pink Mims, of Danville. Lower Stokes, who beat him for the nomination. When he was refused the Republican endorsement for re-election, two years ago, Henry turned Democratic, being slated by the successful Wilson-Hadley combine. The magistrate was re-elected and, last year, stumped sections of the State in which there were large Negro populations for George Earle. He was born in Buffalo, N.Y., and studied law at Howard University, Washington, D.C. He began to practice in Wheeling, W. Va., but moved here in 1906. He is in charge of No. 2 court and has his office at 736 S. 20th Street. He resides at 758 S. Martin Street. (Continued from Page 1) gram. One appearance was to be made in the ring at Griffith Stadium, but not as a participant. He was merely to be introduced, Black said he made a "gentlemen's agreement" with J.

On reaching Washington, Black said he found the city plastered with placards adverising the appearance of Louis at several affa- Promised Percentage "If Louis was being used to make money, I wanted some of it too" said Black. When he arrived and discovered that Louis was the billed attraction at some half dozen affairs. Black said he demanded, besides the $1,200, an additional 22½ per cent of the gate. This also was promised, he said. After the fight the Elks' management refused him a percentage of the gate of some $8,000; so the money was held up. Wilson stated that he carried out his agreement when he paid Black $500. The grand exalted ruler said that the original agreement was for $400, but after some bickering he agreed to make it $500, and can produce a cancelled check to prove that this sum was paid Louis. Retains Counsel Black intimated before leaving Friday that he will go to court to get his share of the money which amounts to about $1,500. He has retained Michael Keough, local attorney, to represent Louis' interests. It is also reported that Louis Anderson, a Chicago attorney who is Louis' legal representative in the Windy City, had something to do with the agreement with Wilson. The former is said to have persuaded the fighter's managers to show their charge in Washington. For this effort he was allegedly supposed to receive an amount of money for himself. While all this is going on, John Carter, Al Dade and Jim Nash, who form the Lincoln A.C. promoters of the fight card on which Louis appeared as an honorary guest, stand by awaiting a final disposition of the affair and an agreement. Their group, they hold, is not involved in the affair. The seeds of failure provide the blossoms for bankruptcy court. BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL IT PAYS TO VISIT MME. W. R.

HAROLD FLOWERS A low-rent housing project which will provide 323 families with modernly-equipped living units on Benning Road in northeast Washington, was announced Friday by Administrator Harold L. Ickes. The construction will soon get underway as soon as options covering the 13-acre site for the project were ordered accepted by the administrator. The cost of the construction has been designated at $1,600,000. It is the third project of the local demonstration program of social planning under the housing division of the Public Works Administration. As in most other attempts to get such projects underway, the location of the tenements is being acquired through direct purchase of continuous plots. The announcement came as a complete surprise as information has been concealed because of difficulty in obtaining sites. The lack of authority to institute condemnation proceedings has crippled the progress of the slum clearance and low rent housing projects. The proposed location is advantageously located in a new colored community. The land is located on Bennings Road, bounded appropriately by the proposed extensions of Twenty-fourth, H and I Streets, Northeast. Kingman Tetrace The project will be known as Kingman Terrace, and only 20 percent of the ground will be used for the buildings, the remainder of the land will be used for the development of recreational facilities. The recreational phase of the project will be under the supervision of the National Capital Park and Planning Commission and the Office of National Capital Parks. The projects for Washington alone will cost the United States government $8,100,000. The combined projects will provide modern, well-equipped living quarters for slightly more than 1,500 families who up to this time have been unable to obtain good housing at prices they can pay. New Educational Facilities A. R. Clas, Director of the Housing Division, reported to Administrator Ickes that full educational facilities, including a grammar junior high and vocational schools are available in the Kingman Terrace area while a new high school is under consideration. According to the report made to Administrator Ickes, Kingman Terrace will make available alternate living quarters of high standards at approximately equivalent rentals to families now dwelling in deteriorated and sub-standard housing in central Washington.

"Countless Four-Square Gospel members are praying," she wrote, "that God may direct your impending decisions in order that the sword of wsr. shall not again be plunged into the mass of bleeding humanity." The evangelist met Mussolini on the occasion of a recent visit to Italy. Having introduced the Five- and-Ten variety of merchandise in this city 23 years ago, the Capital $c$ to $1 S1.

Burial Ground In addition Washington proved to be a fitting place for the burial of hatchets and the ironing out of differences that existed between the grand exalted rule., various lodges and individuals in various lodges. The outstanding hatchet that was buried was the J. Finley Wilson-Armond W. Scott feud. Equally as outstanding was the burial of the hatchet which had kept Columbia Lodge and Mr. Wilson, a member of the lodge, at odds. With apologies to the late Henry Lincoln Johnson, whose life was memorialized in Lincoln Cemetery during the convention, the ceremonies which featured the funeral of Elk differences was equally as impressive. The funeral hymns that were sung during the ceremony of the latter completed all that was necessary for a real funeral. T. Gillis Nutter had already delivered the eulogy, which resulted in the shaking of hands between J. Finley Wilson and members of Columbia Lodge. Judge Scott had taken an active part in the Wilson-Columbia lodge dispute and had said at a mass meeting called by Columbia Lodge during that dispute that he had personally looked over the petition for the injunction against Wilson, and that it was "good." The settlement of differences, which did not take place until the day the convention was scheduled to close, is largely responsible for the convention going into an allnight session and Saturday, before it ended. The "Convention of the Century" was also featured by the pre-convention economic and educational congress sponsored by the Elks' Department of Education. The idea of the conference originated in the mind of W. C. Hueston, commissioner of education, and will become an annual feature of future Elk conventions. The personal appearance of Jesse Owens, outstanding trackster, and Joe Louis, boxer, also added to the success of the convention. With the Elks' department of health under the direction of Dr. William J. Thompkins, placing before the world the plight that the health department of the District is in, the department divisions of the Order of Elks were complete success. Intermingling business and pleasure with charity, the Elks turned aside from their business on two distinct occasions to give aid to two women students. A collection of more than $25 was taken up for Miss Ruth Jones, a junior at Wilberforce University, who sought aid, and another sum of money was taken up for another student who sought financial aid from the Elks. In addition the convention gave consideration to a stirring speech made by a member from Atlanta Ga., who complained that he rode all the way here by a Greyhound bus without having access to a comfort station, or any provisions being made along the route for meals. With a balanced budget reported, with all the departments functioning accurately, with numerous outstanding events featuring the convention, and with all differences being satisfactorily settled, the convention ended, sending everyone on his or her way in the best of spirits. boons to this end of that famous thoroughfare.

Just as we were getting ready to enjoy the week's activities in retrospect, the papers exposed the mess connected with the Joe Lotus appearance at the ball park. These are the sort of things that make well-thinking people resentful. It is a matter of a few thoughtless people, either attempting too big a project, or going into a deal without knowing the primary rudiments of the project which they sponsored. It is a known fact that when a pugilistic celebrity, such as Louis, makes an appearance, he receives a percentage of the receipts or a stated amount which usually runs around a thousand dollars. It looks bad, from where we sit. It looks as though both the Elks and the Lincoln Athletic Association are at fault. Whatever the outcome may be it is deplorable that it happened. We feel safe in saying that the Elk officials who were in any way connected with the transactions will receive the abhorrence of the race in general and the Elks at large in particular. Such a show of ignorance of business ethics, the absurdness of a promise to Joe that he'd be seated with the President and given certain honors at Howard University, and the drawing of such statements from the white press as, "He (Joe Louis) was hood-winked here by his own people, who up until then had kept such a level head" make the incident one that rankles in the mind. We, as Washingtonians, are disgusted with all of the local gang who are connected with the affair. N Say a Word of Praise It goes without saying that many of our neighborhoods, so far as appearances are concerned, are not writing home about. Our steps could be washed more often, our pavements swept, our windows cleaned, our front and back yards tidied, our children not so rampant, our laughter not so loud. We know that these things need improving in both our residential and business sections. But, we are not dealing with that at this writing. We want to compliment those of our neighborhood who have shown a personal pride in keeping pretty front yards during the past summer. In nearly every neighborhood there is one, sometimes two or three front yeards, that stand out for neatness or prettiness. Occasionally a whole row of houses seem to vie for the prettiest or best kept yard. Such yards are worthy of praise being extended to those who are responsible for such display of pride in their homes' appearance. The writer has been thrilled by such sights during the last four months, and whenever possible he has commented the persons he sees on the premises for the fine showing their yards make. Such comment will encourage greater effort on the part of those already keeping heir places pretty; a pretty place may cause a neighbor to beautify; a neighbor's interest may arouse others', and before long our neighborhoods will be as pretty and desirable as other sections. May we urge you to beautify your front yard—and if you haven't a front yard, pass a word of commendation on to those who have. This is a little thing that will count. The man who works not by the Golden Rule has little prospect of prosperity. What Have You To Offer? What Have You To Offer? By Charles M. Thomas Outside of any denial that the governing class of Ethiopia is "Negro" recent events serve to prove it. While American Negroes are engaged in ASKING for something, the Emperor of Ethiopia OFFERS SOMETHING. This is the unlearned lesson in Negro education here in America. Even in serious conferences, Negroes end by asking for things, just like children. Despite the efforts of a few of us to direct the mind and education of our youth towards what has been shown to be the way of progress, others more voluble and showy distort every movement by selling our power through "asking for things." Every leader, so called, is first elevated by outside interest then accepted by us. We make no leaders, because we do not favor working out a program and working by that program. We prefer basking in the reflected glory of the "powers that be." We delight in coating of the "big boss" with whom we are on terms of familiarity, or for whom we work Former Leaders Blazed the Trail Strange changes have come over this people with so rich an heritage. Captured in Africa because of our native resistance to the heat of the southern clime and our capacity to work and breed; freed because our four millions would swell the labor market and lower the wages of Northern white wage earners; used as strike breakers because we could live on less than nothing; kept in the South because we could be so easily dominated, and were so docile; given the ballot in order to put a new money-interest in control of the government; kicked out of the right of franchise and then our civil rights by court decisions because we no longer had the vote and because Republicans had what they wanted in millions of acres of land and billions of revenue from the tariff; denied equal schools because we learned to fast with our native intelligence, up to the coming of youth; flattered because of our achievements in oratory, drama, music and the like because we offered no competition with those who were getting real wealth; segregated in every phase of life because our socialability made it difficult for the white man to preserve his illusion of superiority; kicked out of the Democratic party and kept in the Republican party until the vote of the women could be used to offset our balance of power in hundreds of precincts, we have followed no leader who marked the way out in this American system. All the white man had to do was to make us laugh at ourselves and victory was his by no further effort; or dress up a few of us and rest followed like sheep. Accepting religion because it offered both an escape from the realities of life, and gave us a sanction for suffering in silence, we have abandoned its philosophy just when we have become intelligent enough to benefit by its inspiration of a "chosen people." Naturally spiritual because of virile imaginations, we have allowed ourselves to be misled by skeptics without actually taking science as a substitute for faith. Youth is not merely a time of life, it is also an opportunity for every generation to profit by the mistakes of its elders. The question America and the world is asking is, WHAT HAVE YOU TO OFFER? You may rest assured you can get what you want if you have what the world wants in exchange. "Go forth, subdue the earth; be fruitful and multiply," is still the Divine command. What do you know about the earth? Pickens' Observations HOW TO FIGHT UNLAWFUL DISCRIMINATION Often the only reason why colored people, and many other people, do not put up a flight against encroachments upon their rights as citizens and humans is that they do not know their legal rights, and do not know how to enforce them. Often they do not know how far they may go in insisting upon a right. Some have too much regard for the words and authority of some officer of the law, not knowing that officers also must obey the law and must respect a citizen in the exercise of his privileges as a citizen. In an Ohio town a colored youth went into a theatre and took his seat on the first floor, against the wishes of the theatre management. The lad had a perfect right to take that seat, whether the management wanted him to take it or not. The manager appealed to a policeman. The policeman knew ketter than to attempt force, but he walked into the theatre and went to the young man's seat and asked him to step outside, saying that he wanted to talk to him. Outside the policeman supported the management and tried to bluff the boy from going into the first floor. The lad lost his money and the show, while trying to be police to a policeman, no knowing until we told him, in preparing him for the next occasion, that he did not need to go out to talk to a policeman any more than he needed to interrupt his attendance at a show to talk with any other person; that he should have said to the officer: "All right, if you want to talk with me when I come out, but right now I am busy seeing a show. I will be glad to see you when I pass out." Then he could leave it to the policeman to use force if he dared. In such a case a citizen might say: "If I am under arrest, of course, I will go out. I will not resist arrest. But if you are simply inviting me out, I am telling you just when I can accept the invitation." Later this boy went in, they used force,—he collected three hundred dollars. Charles H. Houston, of the N.A.A.C.P., has written a letter which contains useful information about how to proceed in many cases of unlawful discrimination, although the letter was written to the leader of a group of colored citizens making an attack on discrimination at one of New York's bathing beaches. Let us take the following from Mr. Houston's letter: "You will note that the penalty for violation is not only a civil suit but a criminal prosecution. I therefore suggest that in each instance you read the law to the official that denies you accommodation and advise him that you are going to swear out a warrant for his arrest. It will not be necessary to read the entire law but just read that part which refers to bath houses, amusement and recreation parks and the penalty for violation. You also recall that I suggested that you insist on talking to each of the officials until you talk to the persons in final control. "In case the management sends for the police, the thing for you to do is to show the policeman a copy of this law or read it to him and then go through the motions again of seeking admission. Policemen have authority to arrest without warrant where a misdemeanor is committed in their presence, right before their eyes. "Therefore, after the policeman arrives on the scene you should renew your request and make tender of admission and advise the policeman when you do so that your purpose is to be admitted and if not admitted to demonstrate that the officials are committing a misdemeanor in his presence and demand that the police arrest him. "Ad advise the policeman also that if he does not arrest the official you will make complaint against the policeman. I think this will give the policeman plenty of pause in case he has any disposition to lay hands on you. "In case the officials threaten to have you arrested state plainly that you are only pursuing your legal rights, that you are within the law, and that if you are arrested you are going to sue for assault and battery, false arrest, and imprisonment. This applies to the policeman also who dares to lay hands on you. Remember that it is the official and the policeman who will be in the wrong and not you." We only wish to add: keep your head and stay strictly within your rights: do not even raise your voice. Do not get excited. But insist with the persistence of the devil upon the full exercise of your rights and lawful privileges (Editor's Note—Washington does not have a civil rights law.) THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. WEEK ENDING SEPT. 7, 1935 The sum total of effect of the consolidating movement, as now proposed, is not to unite the six branches of the Methodist Episcopal Church into one solid phalanx of spiritual unity, but to divide it into two compartments along the cleavage of the color line. According to press reports the Commission appointed to draft a scheme of unity for the three white branches of the Methodist Episcopal Church has outlined its report to be submitted to the next quadranniel sessions of the several General Conferences. It is noticeable that only three of the six branches of the Methodist Episcopal Church were included in the overtures of the union. The three colored branches, the A.M.E. Church, the A.M.E.Z. Church and the C.M.E. Church were not included. The evident purpose is to unite white Methodism while leaving the colored brother outside of the ennobling bond of the union. The Negro membership in the Methodist Episcopal Church North has always occupied an equivocal position. They form a group which is ecclesiastically assimilated but socially segregated. They are the only Negro group which gave the consolidators any concern. How decently to dispose of this colored contingent has been bothering the mind of Methodist statesmanship for forty years. I remember reading a book some forty years ago by Bishop Foster who, at that early day, forsaw that the setting aside of the colored membership would be inevitable. The committee has consolidated the three white Methodist churches by dividing them into five regional conferences based roughly upon the geographical divisions of the United States according to the census. But they have set up a Conference composed of Negro membership which covers the area of the United States. CENTRAL CONFERENCE EMANS- This Conference, for some reasons neither ecclesiastical nor geographical, they call the Central Conference. It seems that they use this term to get around a racial designation. It is somewhat curious that the colored membership of the M.E. church tries to dodge racial designation when the three independent Negro Methodist churches include the terms African or colored in their organization. Thus we have the African Methodist Episcopal Church, the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church and the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church. You cannot dodge segregation by a name or get rid of jimcrowism by circumcutionary phases. The off-colored brother is still in the woodpile, albeit, he may be covered with a thin layer of chips. It is the uneasy conscience which causes men to deviate from plain, straightforward speech: "Nor florid prose nor honeyed lies of rhyme Can blazen evil deeds or consecrate a crime." The colored members of the M.E. church for more than a generation have been restive under two conflicting feelings. On the one hand, they hope for complete unity with the whites on the basis of Christian brotherhood; on the other, they yearn for ecclesiastical self-expression. They were often taunted by the Independent Negro Denominations for permitting themselves $t_0$ become ecclesiastical slaves in the "house of bondage" of their Episcopal overlords. To soothe their chafing spirit and appease their reasonable aspirations the Consolidating Committee provided that the Central Conference should have proportionate Episcopal and clerical representation in the Super-General Conference which was to have final authority over the six regional Conferences. But the Negro membership which now constitutes one-fifteenth of the M.E. Church of the North would only then constitute one-thirtieth of Consolidated Methodism. Their representation at the General Conference would therefore, be rather titular and technical, without any particular influence or effect upon the general management of the Church. RELIGIOUS MEN RELIGIOUS MEN SCHEME We live in a practical age. Priestcraft throughout the ages has been characterized with the same sort of guile which has stigmatized political statesmanship. The absolute is the goal of the idealist; the attainable is the goal of the practical exigencies. The Consolidating Committee was doubtless charged with the task of formulating the most feasible plan of union. They doubtless felt that they had, hit upon the best scheme which stood any chance of adoption. The very nature of their appointment required them to compromise with race prejudice rather than to offer it battle to death. We all know that race prejudice is a persistent and stubborn factor which colors and complicates all of our political, economic, social and religious procedure. The Ten Commandments, the Golden Rule, the Sermon on the Mount, the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States either balk or break down the color line. It would be perhaps expecting too much of human nature to suppose that the Methodist Church could or would meet the challenge of race prejudice. Christianity at its beet, has engaged to overcome race prejudice, it must either live up to this engagement or stifly its high pretentions. A Christian is required by his creed to do right though the heavens fall. The practical statesman keeps the heavens from falling by doing right. The sum total of effect of the consolidating movement as now proposed is not to unite the six branches of the Methodist Episcopal Church into one solid phalanx of spiritual unity but to divide it into two compartments along the cleavage of the color line. The honest and straightforward designation of the resultant organization, after the six branches have been reduced to two, would be: the Methodist Episcopal Church White and the Methodist Episcopal Church Colored. Apology must be made to the great head of the Church that this is the best that race prejudice will permit it to do. If American Methodism has not the requisite spiritual courage to subdue race prejudice, it should at least have the moral candor to say so. People who gives less usually have less because they give less. There is no greater folly than trying to fool self. MAGIC LANES AND STARS Dr. James, Brandon was a ro-land, light, compli-ized, joyful, stout man in his early fories. He was exceptionally fond of hand-made Tampa-Havana Cuban cigars. Joe Muleny, Tampa cigar-maker was his sister's son. Joe had a bicycle and incidentally sold tickets for the Cuban lottery. Joe recommended sick people to Dr. Brandon—whom he idealized. A picture to soothe the weary souls was the picture of Joe Mulanev talking with Dr. Brandon, when the Doctor was in a light and leisurely mood. The good Doctor had a choice array of witticeisms and humorous stories he liked to use to amuse some of his patients with after- the more serious business of writing a prescription or ordering confinement had ended. Each of the extra large hand-made Tampa-Havana Cuban cigars that Dr. Brandon smoked was purchased from Joe Mulanev. Dr. Brandon, in his own mind, had decided that his son should have a good classical education. Carl had come through the high school department of the State College for Colored Youth. While there he had been a veritable bookworm. His two implements outside of the classroom were the volumes that gave him his greatest solace his greatest consolation and his Kodak Album. But he always did well his studies although he did not particularly care for Methematics and Chemistry. General Science was interesting but it was Literature and Philosophy that Carl Brandon loved. He came home to Sylvan Haven and Tampa in the summers. Sometimes he secured a job at one of the Tampa hotels as a bellboy to earn extra change for himself. His experiences at the hotel were usually memorable. From the bellboy's bench he could observe the guests listen to the comments on each of them by other older bellman sitting near him. The plump, middle-aged millionaire from Texas came in dressed in white cowboy trousers and blue coat, with his son, similarly attired and a gold-tipped walking cane. The florid, loud-voiced travelling salesman came in with his large case of samples and his big book of accounts and prospects. Joseph Hergesheimer, the author, whose ornamental and partly historical novels are gaining the attention of America and running currently in The Saturday Evening Post was pointed out to him. The bellboy next to him told how he heard the night clerk say that the author was on his way $t_0$ Cuba Carl Brandon know, read, admired San Cristobal de la Habana, but was not quite clear on Hergesheimer's attitude toward the Negro in America. He intended to try to gain a private audience with him before he left the hotel on the next day; but unfortunately Dr. Hergesheimer departed at midnight that evening and the next day, when Carl got his room number by getting Caleb West, the head bellman, to copy it from the register while the day clerk was not looking, he was disappointed. Carl had journeyed all the way up to the suite of rooms on the eighth floor, confident that he would catch Mr. Hergesheimer alone. He found, instead, a maid changing the linen. She told him that the guest had checked out the night before. At another time George Holston, captain of the bellboys, pointed out to Carl Brandon a woman who was a New York Journalist vacationing in Florida. Holston said she reserved rooms at the hotel each summer and that she talked very cordially to brown folk, she rangefet ice water George Holston got the call. He told Carl he could take it up to her if he so desired, ot would mean an opportunity for him to chat with her. Carl did and she gave him some interesting points on journalism. She was a talkative, good-natured soul and seemed to take no cognizance of the fact that she was a white woman in the South and he only a brown bellboy. This question of his color in the Tampa hotel where Carl was making from forty to fifty dollars a week carrying suits cases, showing guests to their rooms, answering their casks for ice water, for liquor or for wild women did not bother him. He, along with all the other bellboys, waiters, taxicab drivers and maids knew their position in the general scheme of affairs. He was far too busy with his duties to think of the fact that he was a brown youth. But sometimes, in the midst of the gaiety, the lavish expenditures, the personal attractiveness of the wealthy hotel patrons it was difficult to keep away the growing inner feeling of resentment to the God of Creation that he, because he was brown and because he was acting temporarily as a servant, would be on the outside of their Elysia, looking in rather than one of them, a participant and part of their earthly Paradise. Physically Carl Brandon was attractive. His features were as clear cut as any handsome Caucasian. Being brown gave him the appearance of a foreigner. He looked like a Cuban—with his dark deep-set eyes, his glistering hair—But he was proud of the fact that he was an African Negro. The Intelligence of Carl Brandon was above the average of that for the average dark bellboy in the hotel. Somehow he was different and his associates did not fail to notice it. He was saved from much chiding by these men only because of a fatherly explanation in his behalf to them by Caleb West, the head bellman, whose authority they feared, that Carl was the Doc Woodson Issues Statement Relative to Association's Convention Program By CARTER G. WOODSON The actual program for the celebration of the Twentieth Anniversary of the "Association for the Study of Negro Life and History in Chicago on the ninth of September has assumed definite form. Four days will be devoted to these exercises. On Sunday, the 8th, the day before the exercises begin, the visitors will be entertained at a musical in the auditorium of the new Wendell Phillip, High School, and they will be further entertained on that same day at a Get-Acquainted Dinner at International House. Mrs. Maude Roberts George, chairman of the music committee, has a number of faithful coworkers who with the local talent in that city will state a real "Afternoon with Negro Musicians and Their Music." assisted by some artists like Clarence Cameron White and Roland Hayes who have been requested to participate. At the dinner that evening visitors with brief accounts of what they have done in this field will be introduced to respond to addresses by distinguished citizens of Chicago. Day of Celebration Monday, the ninth, the day of the actual celebration, will be devoted to addresses of historical retrospect and evaluation of the work of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History. The first address will be delivered by Dr. W. Sherman Savage, of Lincoln University in Missouri. He will review "Twenty Years of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History." At the same session that morning Professor L. P. Jackson, of Virginia State College, will speak on "The Work of the Association and the People." Following these gentlemen will be a general discussion in which visitors and workers from atar will mention what is being done in various parts to carry out the purposes of the Association as understood by the people who are now becoming interested. On Monday afternoon Dr Charles S. Johnson of Fisk University will make a special "Evaluation of the First Twenty Volume of the Journal of Negro History." This speaker will not elogize the editor or praise the efforts of his co-workers. He will endeavor to apply the test of modern historiography to the current articles, reviews, and documents which have been published in this magazine during the last generation. Wilberforce President to Speak President R. R. Wright of Wilberforce University, will follow this speaker with an address on "Negro History in Our High School and College Curricula." As an author, an instructor of experience in this field, and at present an educational administrator very much concerned with this effort, President Wright's observations will doubtless prove to be valuable. These discourses also will be followed by a general discussion from which is expected other thought of instructors engaged in various parts of the country. Among these will be Herman Dreer, of St Louis; F. E. D'Frantz, of Indianapolis; Louis C. Blount, and Snow F. Grisby, of Detroit; Mrs. G. Estelle Massey Riddle, of Akron; and Professor D. J. Jackson, of Xavier University, New Orleans. On Monday evening at the Wendell Phillips High School, President John Hope, of Atlanta University, will speak on the work of the Association from the point of view of an officer co-operating with the staff. Dr. Carter G. Woodson, the founder and director of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, will speak on the unfinished task which lies before the Association. Mayor of Chicago to Speak The mayor of Chicago is scheduled to speak at this same session and the Honorable Louis B. Anderson is to introduce him. This opportunity is given the city to express its appreciation for the work of the Association which was organized in Chicago on the ninth of September in 1915 and ever since that time has found there some of its most substantial supporters. Among these were Dr. George Cleveland Hall who participated in this organization on that date, and Julius Rosenwald, who became interested soon thereafter, contributed annual to its support, served as one of the officers of the Association from that time until he died. It might be noted too that R. R. Embree, the head of the Rosenwald Fund, which has also given some aid, was a classmate of the founder of the Association when these two youths were studying at Berea College in Kentucky, still dominated by the spirit of that mountaineer abolitionist, John G. Foe, Mr. Embree's grandfather. Tuesday's Program Tuesday, the second day of the celebration, will be devoted to certain scholarly addresses on topics of much concern to the Association and to the general public at this time. At the morning session tor's son A partitioned space, filled with lockers in which the bellmen kept their belongings during working hours was, just behind the basemement furnace and in front of the massive refrigerator. The locker space was the favorite gathering place for the bellmen to gambles. They gambled with dice, cards, money. Often they used profanity, told of incidents with women of the half-world. Carl could never become a part of their life; he avoided them. He did not know why. It was simply because something within him rebelled at the coarse life to which they were accustomed, possibly the only life they knew. (To Be Continued.) BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL ive gram speak on "Abyssinia as a Pawn in European Diplomacy." It might be noted here that Dr. Work is bringing out this fall a book deal- ing with the present Abyssinian situation and the Association will sell this work. Dean Carl Frederick Huth, of the University of Chicago, will deliver an introductory address and preside. Professor Hasseltine, of the University of Wisconsin, will then read a paper on "A New Aspect of the Slavery Argument." Miss Bessie Louise Pierce, of the University of Chicago, will give "A Thought from a Teacher of History." Professor Lorenzo J. Greene, of Lincoln University in Missouri, will discuss the paper by Professor Hasseltine, and Professor Rayford W. Logan, of Atlanta University, will discuss that of Miss Pierce. Afterwards comes the general discussion of these topics. The Business Session On Wednesday there will be a brief business session on the Association in the morning and another session of the Executive Council in the afternoon. At eight o'clock in Harris Hall on the campus of Northwestern University in Evanston with President Scott, of that institution presiding, the Association will hold the final session of the celebration of its Twentieth Anniversary. The Honorable E. B. Jourdain, of Evanston, will deliver an address on "What the Negro May Learn from History" and Dr. Charles H Wesley, of Howard University, will give a discourse out of his experience and knowledge as to "The Place of the Negro Among Those Who Have Achieved." The two remaining sessions of the day will be devoted to the discussion of the timely topic, the African situation. That afternoon E. R. Embree will deliver an introductory address and preside. Professor Melville J. Herskovits, of Northwestern University, a recent traveler and student of African affairs, will discuss "West Africa as a Field for Research." BOOKS Dr. W. D.

Mrs. Wendell Green of Chicago, will open the general discussion and Mrs. Schub, of the same city will follow her. Deep Dark River. By Robert Rylee. New York: Farrar and Rinehart. 1985. $2.50. Dogs are barking in the distance; the aroma of the summer breeze is a delight and a joy; the night, brooding and sombre hangs over one's spirit. One sees Mose trudging to work, trudging back; with awe and apprehension one watches the unfolding story of his life as it is revealed in Robert Rylee's "Deep Dark River." One is filled with admiration and sympathy for Mose in spite of his difficulties and troubles and admiration for the calm, mature style of Robert Rylee. Others interested in the approach to Africa with scientific objectivity will participate in this discussion. Prof. Bunche to Speak At the evening session at the Wendell Phillips High School three other scholars concerned with Afrika will speak. Professor Ralph J. Bunche, of Howard University, who several years ago made a special study of colonial administration on that continent, will deliver an address on "The French in Afrika." Once these words were said about a new book: They are such wise words that I think they have permanent value for a novelist: "It is so tender and simple. It is so terrible and panoramic, piling up its facts with such increasingly subtle intimations, that it belongs among the books to be lent and cherished." Professor W. O. Brown, of the University of Cincinnati, who has just returned from a year's survey of conditions along the East Coast and South Africa in particular will speak on "The Present Statue of the Negro in Africa." Dr. F. Ernest Work, of Muskingum College, for years the Educational Adviser of the Negroes of Abyssinia and knighted by the Emperor of that now much discussed land will of conditions along the East Coast and South Africa in particular will speak on "The Present Statue of the Negro in Africa." Dr. F. Ernest Work, of Muskingum College, for years the Educational Adviser of the Negroes of Abyssinia and knighted by the Emperor of that now much discussed land will I think these words would apply to the story of Mose, in spite of the sad destination of this unfortunate colored man.—A.B. We have noticed that the fellow who needs a shave always also needs considerable suit pressing. Federal News Notes by LAURENCE J. W. HAYES "TODAY IS THE TOMORROW YOU WORRIED ABOUT YESTERDAY" Out of the clash of opposing opinions come progress and truth. A very few Federal employees of color will agree with me when I say that I am of the opinion that Max Baer will be on his feet at the end of his scheduled 18-round bout with Joe Louis this month at Yankee Stadium. Anyone who wishes to bet on this fight need not pay any attention to my prediction, because I am the fellow who thought not only that the Anti-Lynch Bill would pass but also thought that Huey Long meant Negro Americans some good. I had the pleasure, along with Roland (Commerce Dept.) Walker, through the courtesy of Joseph (Commerce Dept.) Bryant of meeting Joe Louis, Jessie Owens and Natie Brown (one of the few white fighters who went the rove with the Brown Bomber) at the palatial home. I was not at all impressed with Louis, I am sorry to say. Owens, of my foot brother, Dr. William Goodlee last Tuesday morning. I was not at an all-time of my frat brother, Dr. William Goodloe last Tuesday morning, tho, possesses an extremely likable personality and can and will carry on a very intelligent conservation His college training is apparent. Joe Louis impressed me as being a man "lost in a rog." It is not generally known that a practically unknown fighter named Johnny Miller almost killed Joe about a year ago while another second ratter whose name is Adolph Waier had him in a bad way two or three times in their fight in Detroit last year. Don't forget, also, that he is nighting an ex-champion. President Roosevelt has gone on record, greatly influenced (it is rumored) by Budget Director Bell as favoring the establishment here of a Government Transfer Agency to take care of dismissed Federal workers. The proposed agency would register the names of all dismissed Federal workers and help replace them in other government positions. In the last ten months Uncle Sam has spent fourteen thousand dollars every minute, something more than nineteen million dollars a day. While spending nineteen million, he has taken in only eight million dollars a day, which means that he has borrowed ten million dollars every day to do business on. It would cost the Government $124,000 to put its 82,000 "emergency" employees under Civil Service, according to figures released during hearings on the Independent Offices Appropriations bill. The figures were estimated by the Civil Service Commission upon demand of the sub-committee which considered the measure. It is based on the cost of non-competitive examinations. Representative Arthur W. Mitchell received an affirmative answer when he asked a mixed audience at Athens, Georgia, in a recent speech: "Haven't you been happier since Mr. Roosevelt became President than at any time during the administration of Mr. Hoover?" ***** Democratic Representative Thomas O'Malley, of Milwaukee, introduced a bill which I think hits the nail on the head in connection with a way to insure peace. This measure (which of course did not paddle provided that the Secretary of War shall be furnished each year with information regarding the incomes of all individuals in the country or that those "with the highest income may be sent to the point of hostilities in event of war before any other individuals are called for service." ..... Your correspondent has received quite a few letters asking information as $a_{s}$ to the best way to go about getting a job in washing. I may say in the beginning that there is no cut and dried system. A good thing to remember is that it is not what you know as well as who you know and how well you know them that counts. Second, you must work "from the inside." Congressional indemnities are worthwhile only when obtained from someone on the Hill who has a stand-in with the agency in question. A friend, though he be he but a messenger or labore, can to workers in opening the gates if he stands in good with the "big shots" of the office. Cabinet officers, can of course, get almost anything they wish, including jobs. They are very, very careful about exerting tact in fluence, however, and usually confine it to their friends and friends of their friends. Bob McCormick (8 to 4.40) who covers Federal employee news for the Washington Daily News says: "Once in a blue moon, very freak of luck permits a person without special influence to find himself at work, but invariably in a low-grade position. Emil Hurja, patronage chief of this administration, is using a new system now from Democratic Headquarters. He gives job-seekers cards of introduction to personnel officers asking that "all possible courtesies be shown the bearer," etc. There are nearly 8,000 cards in circulation to date.

Lucky for that large band of paraders that they missed this sudden onslaught of rain which came just as Labor Day plans were at their height and caused many upsets. However, excursionists, automobiles filled with pleasure seekers, buses and what-not made their exodus from the city to beaches, summer resorts and other cities to spend the week-end. New York City and Atlantic City had over their share of Washingtonians. Hotels and private homes were filled to capacity. Artic, Kentucky, Louisiana and Indiana Avenue in Atlantic City were ablaze night and day with holiday revellers. 137th, 138th Street and Seventh Avenue in New York City likewise boasted of hundreds of visitors many of whom were D.C. folks.

Visitors found many indoor private parties in progress all over the city and took advantage of this means of entertainment. Last week on Wednesday evening, the Elks' held their grand hall at Masonic Temple. Crowds of people gathered on the outside of the auditorium just to glimpse the gorgously attired ladies as they stepped from their limousines and entered the hall.

Despite the many activities, and the strain of the last two weeks on Washington's social calendar we find that several blending have taken place with more to come. The always happy and jovial Attorney James Eaton and Miss Annette Hawkins, one of our popular school's teachers became one last week and Miss Ethel Evans, well-known in social circles said "I will" to Roland Price just about the same time. Orchids to the happy couples. Much success. And in looking over the mail, I find an invitation to the marriage of Miss Patience Zenobia Kirkland and Harry Roland Payne, to be solemnized Saturday, September 14. You will remember Harry Payne as a coach of the Howard football team and Zenobia Kirkland a sweet girl graduate of this year's class of Howard University. This marriage will be the happy culmination of a very beautiful romance. Again here's another bunch of orchids to Zenobia, and Harry. Miss Dorothy Audrey Howard became the bride of Henry Royce Sales on Saturday, August 31. Again we offer congratulations.

Both more than four score years old. Each unique in his own grand way. One, Washington's own beloved Dr. Walter H. Brooks, celebrated his birthday the other day and thousands throughout the nation marveled at the preacher that could fill the same important pulit more than fifty years. The other, South Parkway, Chicago's Major John R. Lynch, will mark another natal day September 10. And other thousands North, South, East and West will thrill with the thought that here is a man that could hold $s_0$ many positions of trust for his country that no poor scribe like his could properly designate them. --- Off to a barber shop went Mrs. E. T. Hawkins, of 127 S Street, Northwest. "Clip-clip" went a pair of sheares. And now Ferdinand and Kermit Mellinger (tall young sons of Mrs. Hawkins) are anxiously asking, "Is this really Mother, or some sister we never heard of?" ... Friends of Miss Camille Nickerson, of the Howard University School of Music ought to set up a cry and keep it up until that loveli- ly lady gives them a picture exactly like the one that adorned the "Louisiana Weekly" a short time age. Mrs. Belle Phillips, manager of Kathleen's Beauty Shop, pink-clad and happy, peeping in at the wed- ding reception of one of her oper- ators. **** Mr. and Mrs. Richmond D. Sharp of 607 Gresham Place, never pass a certain home on Q Place without going in for a minute. Way back when Mrs. Sharp was a little dimple-cheeked Miss living in the home of Mr. and Mrs. A. Gates (1420 Q Street, Northwest) and Mr. Sharp was a smart young man about town (living—I can't remember where) Cupid came along and waged a winning warfare right in that Q Street home. Years have passed. Indeed, "Sharp, Jr." is almost big enough for school. But romance will still linger for the couple. And so they always enter the open gate of the Gates. --- Never tried it but going to jail should lose half of its horrors when a goodlooking policewoman like Mrs. Marie Heard Thomas leads you there. --- Maybe 'twas the rest she had at Colton, maybe 'twas the pretty way she arranged her hair. Anyway, Mrs. Eva Blake, of S Street, Northwest, looked ever so well the other evening in an ashes of roses outfit enriched by brown accessories. ... A Californian who lives at Iowa Circle passed the long summer months without worrying at all about going home. But last week the postman brought her some snapshots.

Popularity of Radio Artists is Based on "Fan" Mail at Studio Elder Michaux and Sam Lacy Popular Local Artists; Dr. Mordecai Johnson and Miss Nannie Burroughs on the Air By C. LESLIE FRAZIER Only a few Negroes hold their own on the radio, and this is mostly due to their individual artistic ability. Many white artists of the air have meager ability, but something other than mere ability appeals to their listeners-in, who flood the radio stations with post cards and letters asking that these artists be retained on the air waves. Not so with us. We are prone to listen, comment and let it drop at that. We do not see the need of writing in their behalf. Many commercial artists would be retained on a sustaining program after their commercial contracts expired, if we, as a whole, would write and ask that those who are worthy would be kept on the air. Our three foremost sustaining artist groups, the Southernaires, Fats Waller, and Eva Taylor (who are not sponsored by some commercial concern) remain favorites because of the desire made known to the radio stations that the listeners-in like them. How many Negroes have written in? It is safe to say that only a few. But let something go amiss relative to any of the above mentioned three, such as a seeming sight to the race, and up will go home, barber shop, and press bla and that will be the end of that. The desires of listeners are generally heeded by the broadcaster. Applause proves the worth of any artist—mail is the only applause by which a radio artist can measure his or her worth. Applause proves the worth of plause by which a radio artist can There are several good features on the air that are performed by colored artists. These are far too few. You can eliminate this scarcity of good talent by writing to your radio station whenever you hear a good feature, and ask that it be retained. Many letters will get results.

Although some of them come over short wave-length stations they can be received here in Washington on most any 1935 radio set. Beginning with Friday you can get the following: (The time means p.m. unless hour is preceded by an asterisk.) WEAF—Wilberforce Quartet, 12:15; WJZ—Teddy Hill and Orchestra, 3:30; KQV—Al Turner, 6:45; WJZ—Ink Spots, 10:15. On Saturday's you can hear: WJZ—Three Flats, *8:00; Teddy Hill, 4:00; WABC, Claude Hopkins, 10:30; our home-town boy. Sundays have been giving us four out-of-town programs: WJZ—Saintaires, *9:00; KQV—Holt Spirituals, 5:45; WPG—The Southern Boy, 9:00. WEAF—Eva Taylor; 7:30; KQV—Al Turner, 6:45; WJZ—Ink Spots, 10:22. On Wednesdays we heard: WJZ—Crosscuts (quartet) 4:00; KQV—Al Turner, 6:45; WJZ—Ink Spots, 10:15; WABC—Claude Hopkins, 10:30; WJZ—Teddy Hill, 11:10. Thursdays have been offering: WABC—Clyde Barrie, *9:30; WJZ—Teddy Hill, 4:00. There are several broadcasts that originate here in Washington. We are all familiar with the broadcast that arouses us from tranquil slumber when our thoughtless neighbors turn their radios to high on Elder Michaux over Station WJSV for an hour, from 8 to 9 o'clock each Sunday morning. Then there are the Four Keys and Dixie Harmonies which have large quiet followings here. (Notice I say "quiet" followings.) The latter two are sustaining programs. The Rev. Michaux told me that his broadcasts were paid for by his associates. Sam Lacy, sports editor, of this paper, is commentator on things sportive every Wednesday evening at 8:30 over WOL. This fifteen minute spot titled "Talkin' Em Over" while only three weeks old has proved to be a popular feature. His talk has been live and interesting, and has been put over in such a way as to prove of interest to all listeners. This program is sponsored by The Tribune. Last week Lacy interviewed Jesse Owens over WOL on Tuesday night. His regular program went on the air as usual the next day. If you like Sam's program send him letters to Station WOL and let him know it. Beginning Tuesday at 9:40 a.m., Terry Carter, the "Singing Usher" of the Lincoln Theatre occuired a ten-minute spot over WJSV, George Clarke, who discovered Carter told this writer that negotiations are under way to give this singing youth every advantage possible. Terry came back this morning and won more radio fans over the Virginia station. Those Amateur Programs Personally I was glad when the Harlem Amateur program emanating from New York, and the Howard Theatre program ceased to be broadcast. They were the most humiliating things I've heard over the air. They reminded me of ignorant whites having what they call fun at the expense of ignorant Negroes. No good came of such broadcasts, much harm to the race did result. When amateur broadcasts are managed intelligently, with consideration for the feelings of the amateurs, nothing could be more worthy. Opportunities are opened to Negroes on the National Amateur Night Program at 5 p.m. over WJSV, and from Major Bowes's Amateur Hour over WRC from 7 to 8 p.m. from which much good is derived by colored beginners. Both of these are Sunday broadcasts. At 10:30 a.m. each Sunday, Edward Matthews is heard as a soloist on Major Bowes's, Capitol Theatre Family program over WRC and often Rudy Vallee has a colored star on his program over WRC on Thursday nights. Local Programs own on the radio, and this is mostly city. Many white artists of the air other than mere ability appeals radio stations with post cards and be retained on the air waves. to listen, comment and let it drop of writing in their behalf. Many need on a sustaining program after, if we, as a whole, would write would be kept on the air. Our oups, the Southernaires, Fats Wal-sponsored by some commercial conhe desire made known to the radio them. How many Negroes have only a few. But let something go mentioned three, such as a seeming home, barber shop, and press blat.ally heeded by the broadcaster. any artist-mail is the only apmeasure his or her worth. The Chanticleer Quartet, four youths from Louisville, Ky. sang "Kentucky Babe" on the National Amateur Night Program last Sunday. Adelaide Hall was one of the guest artists on Major Bowes's program last Sunday morning. To Major Bowes goes the distinction of being the most altruistic medium on the air. Colored organizations should be among those who shower the Major with letters and telegrams. Missing People It is interesting to listen to the police flashes that come over WOL every morning at 9:30. Perhaps you may be able to locate some missing person that you have noticed in your neighborhood. Many of the people who are missing are amnesia victims, and some are colored. It is a duty to help these people to return to their friends or relatives. The Ink Spots referred to above are heard on local station WMAL and Claude Hopkins, WJSV. Washboard Blues, a feature of WOL comes over the air Fridays at 6:30 p.m. for fifteen minutes. at 6:30 p.m. for sixteen minutes. For those who like the Cab Calloway technique, Louis. Premier can be heard Monday and Thursday nights over WPB (Charlotte, N.C.) at 9:45 o'clock. Convention Broadcasts While one faction of the Baptists is holding its national conference here the other faction is holding sway in New York City and the latter group offered some interesting talks over the air lanes by prominent Baptist ministers.

There are some 36 case workers and about 25 office help on luty at this center. Some of these will be transferred to other divisions while others will be dismissed. The closing of the center is in line with the government's program to take unemployed off relief and put them on work projects.

Central Branch on Indiana Avenue between Third and C Streets, will remain open and is expected to absorb some of the load carried by Banneker. One reason for closing Banneker, it was said, was because of an unsuitable heating plant in the etation.

Det Noted for Ace of D. C. Detective Force Noted for Getting His Man Paul W. Jones Feared by Flimflam Artists and Confidence Men Pulling rabbits out of hats by magicians, is no more mysterious than how some people are induced to place their bank accounts, cash, jewelry and other articles of value, in the hands of strangers, only to see them disappear as if by magic. The sentencing of two confidence men during the past week, to terms in prison, recalls the efficient work of Paul Jones, Washington's efficient detective sergeant, in rounding up men and women engaged in fleeing innocent victims. At a recent banquet given in honor of the police and firemen of the District, Jones was introduced as their "Ace" detective. He is not, however, a G-Man, so-called, but his comrades in the District detective force count him a G-ood man to put on the trail of all flim-flam artists and confidence men. About a year ago when Leo Rover, the United States District Attorney left that office, he wrote a highly commendatory letter to police officials as to the high quality of Jones' work in connection with the conviction of numerous notorious criminals.

Defends Church Father Grabenstein, white, of St. Cyprian's parish of Washington, criticized the attitude of Dr. Turner with regard to facilities for education. Stating that the Catholic church was cognizant of Cortez Peters to Get $35 a Minute in Test Cortez W.

Carver $ a_{c} $ collaborator in the department of agriculture, division of plant industry, at Washington, numerous letters have been received at the president's office expressing regret that Dr. Carver is to sever his connection with the institute. The service which Dr. Carver will render the government does not mean a severance of his connection with Tuskegee. The type of work that Dr. Carver is doing for the government and the department of agriculture is the sort of thing that he has been doing for many years, but just recently, in recognition of his meritorious and valued service has he been asked to join the department as a collaborator. The appointment carries no salary. It will be of considerable satisfaction to Dr. Carver's friends everywhere to know that he is going to remain in the Southland and at Tuskegee Institute It's a good thing to smile even if it is a frozen smile.
