RUHLAND BLACKLISTS 15 RESTAURANTS For Week-End Happenings Get the National Edition on Tuesday Michaux'sHappy News Restaurant,Thurstons Republic, on the List NATIONAL EDITION VOL. XV, No. 29. Michaux'sHa Restaurant,T Republic, on Move Is Result of Health Clean up Begun Several Months Ago by Ruhland 5 HEALTH REGULATIONS IGNORED IS CHARGED Will Accept No Money on 1936 Licenses Until Another Inspection Striking unrelentlessly at restaurants that are allegedly ignoring the health regulations of the District Health Department, Dr. George C. Ruhland, health officer, blacklisted seventy-four restaurants last Frieday, including some of U Street's most popular eating establishments. Popular Places Affected Noted among the places blacklisted is Thurston's Cafe. 2006 Eleventh Street, Northwest; the Happy News Penny Restaurant, operated at 1727 Seventh Street, Northwest, by Elder Solomon Lightfoot Michaux; the Republic Cafe, 1335 U S Street, Northwest; Butler's Restaurant, 1940 Ninth Street, Northwest; Norfolk Cafe, 1335 U Street, Northwest, and the Lincoln Delicatessen, 1215 U Street, Northwest. Among others on the list is the Owl Sandwich Shop, 1218 U Street, Northwest; Hondros Restaurant, 1408 U Street, Northwest; Butler and Butler, 55 Florida Avenue, Northwest; P Rouspoulos, 1437 U Street, Northwest; Herbert Sacks, 1000 V Street, Northwest; John Taylor, 642 Florida Avenue, Northwest; Andon Nicholson, 814 Florida Avenue, Northwest; George Christmas, 2001 Ninth Street, Northwest; and John Doonis, 1914 Fourteenth Street. No Licenses In recommending that they be denied licenses for 1936, Dr. Ruhland, in a memorandum to Walter H. Combs, superintendent of licenses, also asked that no payments on their licenses be accepted until his office can certify the places for licenses. In recent years the District has permitted applicants for renalem of restuarant licenses to pay their fees while awaiting annual inspection by health office agents. Because of the small staff this work usually takes one or two months. Restaurant operation is permitted n the meantime. Cart Before Horse Dr. Ruhland interpreted this as putting the cart before the horse and also pointed out that the courts have interpreted this practice to the effect that the person from whom the part payment was received was in fact entitled to a license. The action taken by the Health Officer is a culmination of a health drive began several months ago, when he found that scores of eating places were violating sanitary rules. Another inspection of the several places will be made by health inspectors before a move is made to close them up. Traffic Expert Addresses H. U. Engineering Students William A. Van Duzer, Washington, addressed the students of the Howard University School of Engineering and Architecture last Tuesday on the subject, "Traffic Control." Mr. Van Duzer's illustrated lecture opened the 1935-36 engineering-architecture series and burgled before the students one of America's authorities in the field of traffic engineering. Last Friday, the following students were elected officers of the Howard University Student Engineering Society; Stephen S. Davis, president; Edwin M. Garder, vice president; Edward O. Akers, secretary; William J. Moore, assistant, secretary; Winfield Shumate, treasurer. For Wee 5 DOCTORS NAMED TO CCC CAMPS Dr. Anderson is Graduate of H.

Mrs. Davis charged that at 3:30 p.m. Friday, just at the time newsboys were scheduled to appear for their papers, 11 pickets appeared in front of the office and began marching back and forth in a circle, carrying signs which read "Locked Out for Union Activities" and "Don't Buy the Amsterdam News." Captain John J. Flynn and his police squad, called to the scene on complaint of Mrs. Davis, told the pickets that only two of them would be allowed to continue to march before the office, but the entire group remained: The captain waited five minutes, then ordered all but two of the 11 marchers placed in the squad cars and taken to the 135th Street station. They were charged with disorderly conduct. McCollum Booked Those booked by the police were Obie McCollum, former editor of the paper, Henry Lee Moon, former book reviewer; Marvel Cook, former editorial secretary; Loren Miller, of the staff of the New Masses, Joseph Worth, Duncan Clarke, Earl Lawson Sydnor; David Scher (white) and Mary Turner. In freeing the defendants, the judge ruled that picketing can be considered illegal only when it involves violence, when wrong information is given the public or when other than moral and mental persuasion is used. In this case, he said, none of these things had been proved; so that the case against the pickets was weak. Looking for Il Duce's Planes Over Addis Ababa THE FIGHT FOR THE HOME ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia—These members of Hai le Selassie's recruit army, who are learning the proper method of trench digging before proceeding to the Eritera and Italian Somaliland fronts, seem to be gazing upwards as in fear of the approach of enemy planes for the long-dreaded bombardment of the capital city. (Pathe News Photo.) Civilization Threatened By Georgia, Says William Pickens By WILLIAM PICKENS (For ANP) On the evening of October 23, at the Manhattan Opera House in New York City, thousands of people came together to bid farewell to Angelo Herndon, young communist, who seems to be finally condemned to serve a term of years, or as long as he can live, in a Georgia chaiangang—for no crime; unless it be a crime to be active in a working-class or radical party movement. The boy, only 22 years old, has not stolen anything; not murdered anybody, nor committed assault. He helped to organize colored and white unemployed in Atlanta to demand better relief from the authorities. No violence was committed, and there is no evidence that any was contemplated. Herndon, being more intelligent than the most of those in the organization, was very active as a leader. The authorities singled him and a few others out for destruction. Grim Joker An ancient law, made first to suppress slave rebellions, and very savage even when that is considered; was dug up from Student Killed 6 C. ALONZO COLEMAN 23, of Washington, who was killed in a crash. He was a recent graduate of Armstrong High School. Two youths were injured in the same accident. At the time of his death he was engaged to Miss Leora Cooper, also of Washington. His family lives in Dolphin, Va. among the buried statutes of the state; and he was tried for inquiring to insurrection and threatened with death—the charge being so horribly unjust that even the Georgia jury of white men recommended "mercy" to keep the lad from being put to death, as the old law allowed the death sentence. This mercy is a grim joker wren it means 18 to 20 years in a Georgia chaingang—a longer time than stronger men than Herndon could ever live in that institution. Herndon stands today unafraid in the face of this very hell There is not an official in Georgia who would be held as calm and courageous in the face of such a fate as is this young Negro His friends and supporters; numbering many communists; fewer socialists; and representatives of all other political groups; and of all races and religions; met to honor him and to pledge their continued agitations toward the end of releasing him from prison. Knowing Georgia as we do and taking into consideration the reputation of its present governor we see no way in which this re- Roosevelt's Coachman and Brentwood Mayor is Dead The coachman who drove the White House carriage for President Theodore Roosevelt and later served as messenger for five Secretaries of the Treasury, Julius Wheeler, 63, died yesterday at his home in Brentwood, Md. Wheeler came to the Treasury Department from the White House after serving Theodore Roosevelt as coachman on the White House carriage. He was personal messenger to Secretary MacVeagh, McAdoo, Glass, Houston and Mellon. As such he was known by many national characters during that period of the Nation's history. The funeral will be held from Mount Zion A. M. E. Church. Wednesday at 2 p.m. Wheeler was former mayor of Brentwood and for some time was chief messenger at the treasury. He retired from Government service about two years ago. DR. WRIGHT TO SPEAK RALEIGH. N. C. — Dr. Richard Robert Wright, Jr., president of Wilberforce University the oldest Negro College in America, will be the principal speaker at the Shaw University seventieth anniversary celebration to be held Wednesday, November 20 in the university chapel. tissue can be affected short of a revolution and physical force; which is not possible. Slim Chance There is a bare chance, very bare; however; that if a group of southern men representing the influential churches and social organizations; should appeal to Governor Talmadge; he could be induced to pardon Herndon. There is another slim chance that a writ of habeas corpus might have some effect; after he enters prison; since that antiquated law has never been ruled upon as to its constitutionality. Something would be done in Georgia if its people realized that the question at issue is not the rights of a communist to meet and speak and live, but the right of every man in the state to do the same. All progress is threatened, for black or white, or for any "progressive" and non-conforming idea, in all Georgia, if this sentence is carried out. And it will be a bad example to all the backward elements and the entrenched reactionaries of the whole republic. Student a Suicide A.

CHAIN-GANG SENTENCE November 12 Set as Date for Hearing Writ of Habeas Corpus; Attorney Seeks to Prevent Torture Decision ATLANTA, Ga. —Angelo Herndon, America's most famous political prisoner, gave himself up last Monday, October 28 He was immediately placed in Fulton County Tower where he was imprisoned for 26 months prior to his release on $15,000 bail in August 1924 August: The bail was raised by sympathizers, friends and members of the I L. D. Attorneys for Herndon have secured an order setting November 12 as the date for a hearing on a writ of habeas corpus, sought of the ground that the constitutional litigants When the United States Supreme Court twice refused to consider the merits of his case, it condemned him to the Georgia chain-gang. According to the provisions of his bail he had to return to the Georgia officials as soon as the U. S. Supreme Court sent down the mandate of its last decision to the Georgia Supreme Court. That mandate was received by the state authorities Monday morning, October 28. Put in Fulton Tower As soon as Herndon reported, he was placed in the Fulton County Jail, where he had been imprisoned for 26 months prior to his release on $15,000 bail last Trio Dig Their Way Out of Fairfax, Va., Jail Or Way Out Tennessee Va., Jail for "In Trio Dig Their Way Out Tennessee White Kill Man of Fairfax, Va., Jail for "Insulting" Woman FAIRFAX, Va. — Police of Northern Virginia were searching today for three prisoners who executed a jail break here last night by crawling through a hole they had dug in the brick wall of the county jail with a piece of iron bedstead.

G SENTENCE Date for Hearing Writ Attorney Seeks to ture Decision August. The bail was raised by sympathizers, friends and members of the I L. D. Attorneys for Herndon have secured an order setting November 12 as the date for a hearing on a writ of habeas corpus, sought on the ground that the constitutionality of the "insurrection" slave law under which he was convicted has never been determined. There is a United States Supreme Court decision holding that where the constitutionality of a statue under which a prisoner is held has not been tested because of technical grounds, such a test may be had through a writ of habeas corpus. It is on this ground that Tom Mooney, California's prisoner, is now seeking his freedom. The effect of the order for Herndon is to prevent the Georgia authorities from immediately rushing him to the Georgia chain-gang. "Fight Harder," Says Damon (See HERNDON, Page 2) Tennessee White Kill Man for "Insulting" Woman WHITE BLUFF, Tenn. — A colored man listed as Baxter Bell, 35, was killed early this week by a group of white men who riddled his body with bullets for an alleged insult to a white woman as she alighted from a bus. The killing occurred on a road to Kingston Springs some distance from White Bluff. The man's body was thrown from the roadside into a thicket. A short time later Deputy Sheriff Clyde Petty said five white men appeared at the jail here and surrender. They told the officer the white woman they claimed had been insulted was the wife of one of their number. The Tribune.

BOSTIC WINS SUIT FROM JARVIS Court of Appeals Hands Down Decision Against D.C. Undertaker The U. S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia upheld the decision of the Supreme Court of the District, this week in awarding Mrs. Effie Bostic damages of $1,500. Mrs. Bostic was injured in an automobile belonging to W. Ernest Jarvis, well known Washington funeral director. The woman and several others were returning from a funeral in Burke, Va., on April 9, 1933 when the car in which she was riding, ran off the road down an embankment. Mrs. Bostic states that she was seriously injured. The original amount sought was $25,000. Jarvis contended that the amount was excessive and the lesser sum was awarded in the lower court. W. C. Hueston, representing Jarvis, appealed the case when denied a new trial. Mrs. Bostic was represented by Attorney Elwood Hubert, who appeared for Judge Armond W. Scott. The case was last argued by Attorney Scott before he was appointed judge of the Municipal Court. The automobile in approaching into an arterial highway following another car, ran off the road when the machine in front stopped suddenly. The driver stated that he left the road in order to avoid striking the front car. The court held he did not use due care and did not have his machine under sufficient control so as to stop without mishap.

No date has been set as yet: Ed Brown, Yank Ellington, and Henry Shields were convicted last year in Kemper county, Miss., on a charge of murderng Raymond Stewart, a white tenant farmer. The conviction was based upon a “confession” which was secured only after almost unbelievable tor- ture had been inflicted upon the three men. Ellington, not. only was beaten, but was strung up with a noose repeatedly until his neck was per- manently injured. No_ evidence directly connecting the three men with the murder was ever offered by the State, A Mississippi supreme court justice declared the flagrant in- justices to the defendants were “worse than the Scottsboro case.” oe ee Man Held for Murder After Hearing SANFORD, N- C.°(ANP)—John Mel}onald was‘held charged with first degree murder here Tuesday bya coroner’s jury, investiagting the slaying of Cleveland Marsh in the Vineyard section Monday 5E COUPE es of this new Dodge convert- younger element who visit the Exhibit Hall. th Aid J ange | about motorea developmen* ever to grow old, is the very. factor that makes ours a world of next- door ‘neighbors—thangs to the automobile. | “Now and then some wide jawake observer will argue; ‘you | Put out a pretty good car this Year; would it not be better for |You and the whole industry to |Gontinue che present model Ceres |until public demand makes oe advisable? “The answer to such a 4 Such atiitude. would.

Calvert Exhibit Hall 2701 Calvert Street PLYMOUTH BUILDS GREAT CARS BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL ersity Professor Nation's Action Richmond University Professor Lauds League of Nation's Action everywhere," he continued- Out of this seeming chaos, Dr- Mitchell saw "an emerging world coming, into being" as evidenced by the fact that five peasants serve as prime ministers of the five most powerful nations in Europe. The common people everywhere are coming forward under the leadership of men who have ETTRICKS, Va.—"In the realm of jobs you may be at a disadvantage. In the realm of the ballot box you may suffer injustice and inequality. But you have no disadvantage nor inequality in the realm of ideas." With these words, Dr. C. S-Mitchell; professor of history at the University of Richmond, launched into a stirring plea to the students of Virginia State College to combine their collective intelligence in an effort to mold public opinion for America's moral support of and co-operation with the League of Nations in the Italio-Ethiopian situation. The speaker was addressing the student body on his impression of Europe gained from a recent six-month tour, at the regular chapel exercises on Friday, October 25. Invasion Robbery Branding the Italia invasion of Ethiopia as stark conquest and highvap robbery of a defenseless and innocent people; Dr. Mitchell condemned II Duce as a threat to the peace of the world. "I believe that Mussolini is aiming at Egypt, and the attack on Ethiopia is being made merely to put smoke in the eyes of the world. In reality the Italian dictator seeks to enter the fertile Nile Valley through the back door," the speaker said; pointing to the rich cotton; wheat and other agricultural lands in that region. Dr. Mitchell passed through the Suez Canal in February of this year and noted the feverish warlike activity there. He says that he predicted the time of the first Italian bomb explosion in Ethiopia within three seconds. Italy Denounced Although the Italian movement is similar to the wars of conquest and colonization which other nations have conducted in the past; Italy today is denounced by the enlightened peoples of the world because of improvement in the conscience of mankind; the speaker declared in effect, and added: "Public opinion today is a tremendous force for right rather than might as evidenced by the epoch-making action of the League of Nations in the Italio-Ethiopian situation." Turning to the general situation, Dr. Mitchell asserted that the old world as formerly organized and ruled is dissolving. He pointed to the vanishing dynasties, fallen rulers and abandoned and decaying palaces which he saw throughout the continent. "The Parliament, political organizations and economic orders of the old world have fallen into dissolution and abandonment chiefly because they did not answer the present needs of society." said the learned historian. "Along with these, the church itself has been renounced, its magnificent cathedrals turned into museums, its religious services tabooed." No Liberty In consequence, "There is no liberty east of the Rhine or south of the Alps, but there is equality RADIAL SAFETY HUDSONS New lines of six and eight cylinder Hudson automobiles are now on display at the automobile show in Calvert Exhibit Hall. Different in appearance from last season's models, the new 1936 cars also include a number of basic changes. A new system of front end design, termed "Radial Safety Control," is introduced. This makes use of softer springs, providing a "rhythmic ride" and resulting in better steering, it is claimed. The cars have a dual braking system, in which hydraulic brakes are backed up by mechanical brakes, which come into play if for any reason the hydraulic brakes fail. A novel ventilation system is employed. This consists of a screening cloth placed over an opening just above the rear axle in the body floor. When windows and doors are closed, all the air admitted into the car passes through this screen cloth. This is said to be of special value when driving through dusty stretches. An adaptation of the "electric hand," gear-shifting control, is incorporated in the new models. The top is now one piece of steel, adding to the strength and safety of the car. Bodies are now said to be more completely insulated from sound and fumes. In the new steering mechanism the front axle rises and falls in a true circular path, the centers about which it swings being fixed by two torque rods. This, in turn, frees the springs from the duty of absorbing brake torque and driving the front end, and thereby permits a softer ride, it is claimed. Three inches have been added to the wheelbase and $1\frac{1}{2}$ inches to the rear tread. The engine of the six develops 93 horsepower with 6.25 to 1 compression ratio, and of the eight, 113 horsepower with 6 to 1 ratio. With a 7 to 1 aluminum head, available at extra cost, the smaller motor produces 100 horsepower and the larger 124 horsepower. An anti-percolating device has been added to the carburetor to prevent boiling of the fuel in the float bowl. This is said to eliminate difficulty of restarting the engine, as often happens in hot weather, and at high altitude. Important Improvements in Ride and Performance Important Improvements in Ride and Performance IT'S HERE...the best engineered...the roomiest, most beautiful Plymouth we've ever built. The 1936 Plymouth is again America's most economical full-size car. All evidence indicates 18 to 24 or more miles per gallon of gas. Among 40 improvements, the big Plymouth frame has been made 100% more rigid...bodies newly reinforced at five major points...so that this new car will stand up under even more road punishment than the sturdy 1935 Plymouth.

Mrs. Miller and Miss Howard charged that the management of the restaurant had discriminated against them on February 16, 1935, by forcing them to sit in the back of the establishment when there were plenty of vacant seats in the front. Say Tables Reserved The manager's chief defense, when he appeared before Judge Eder, was his contention that all front tables in his establishment are reserved at 6 o'clock, the cocktail hour, and that neither Mrs. Miller nor Miss Howard had made reservations. The women contended, however, that there were no signs and nothing on the menu to inform patrons that such was the case.

Smith is alleged to have stabbed his wife in the face with a knife. TWELVE SAM SAYS: This writer has been asked on any number of occasions just what sort of a fellow this John Henry Lewis, the new lightheavyweight boxing champion, is. Lewis, you probably know, defeated Champion Bob Olin, white, for the light-heavyweight title, last Thursday night in St. Louis, Mo. Even before the victory, many had referred to the bronze-hued Phoenix, Ariz., youngster as "the uncrowned champion of his division." Others held that he is just about the flashiest scrapper to come up in the next decade In the one bout I saw John Henry Lewis, he was certainly flashy. I watched him as he battered Izzy Singer, white, Paterson, N.J., hope, to a oneround knockout in the latter's home town last June. Lewis, on that occasion, not only impressed me, but he won favor with some of the nation's leading fight critics as well. After clipping Singer on the chin inside the first 20 seconds of fighting to send the Paterson youngster to the floor, Lewis stepped back and practically begged the referee to stop the fight. It was plainly a sportmanly gesture; one that is seldom seen in the squared circle. He saw that his opponent was no match for him as the latter staggered toward him, his eyes glassy, his knees wobly and his hands too heavy for him to lift. The referee, paying no attention to Lewis, ordered the men to go on fighting. Lewis struck once more, this time determined to end the one-sided bout. Singer fell to the floor like a log—out cold. The strictly home-town crowd, which had come to see their pride stop this man who had just been named No. 1 challenger by the National Boxing Commission, stood up and cheered. Their fallen idof was forgotten as they paid tribute to this great boxer, this gentleman of the prize ring. Since that time I have had word from John L. Clark, secretary to Lewis's manager, Gus Greenlee. Here is how he describes the new titleholder: "I have seen him in many moods: seriously and carefully examining clauses in a contract, going through the paces of a rigid training schedule, tense and snappy before a sparring session; relaxed when it's over—and spending his leisure time at tennis, checkers, pool, the movies, dancing or listening to recorded or radio music. "Lewis takes his work and play seriously. Likes to excel and win at all times. Ideals are high, habits faultless. Does not drink or smoke, and I have never heard him curse, or use profane or vulgar language under any circumstances—even when angry." "John Henry Lewis has an almost reverential respect for womanhood, and has never made an uncomplimentary remark about a woman in any station in life. He does not go in for smutty jokes and will invariably ease away when they are on the program. "He likes his church, attends every Sunday; idolizes his mother and father, and makes no apology for his clannish loyalty and admiration of his brothers—Joel, Christy and Paul." "He reads more than the average boxer and enjoys discussing news of the day when his work is done. He can adjust himself to crowds, public affairs; but is just as contented when left alone. "Although firm in his beliefs and conclusions, he is no harder to reason with than any other youngster just turned twenty-one. If you have facts against his convictions or ideas, he will change; but mere assertions are just a waste of time. "From my point of obser Steve Wiggins is Star As Miner Teachers Crush Cheyney, 20-0 Former Armstrong Star Bears Brunt of Locals' Grid Attack WASHINGTON, D.C.—Coach Harold D. Martin's Miner Teacher College eleven came to life here at Walker Stadium last Saturday afternoon to score a handy 20-6 victory over the Cheyney Teacher College gridders before a slim crowd! It was the first time this season the Georgia Avenue lads had entered the win column. Embittered by successive losses to Howard, Dover State and Shaw, the locals came from behind an early 6-10 lead of the invaders to count 7 points in the first, 7 more in the third and 6 in the final quarters. District Boy Stars Steve Wiggins, a product of Southeast Washington and a former Armstrong High School, led the way as the Maroon and Gold was initiated with victory. A 10-yard run by Wiggins after a Cheyney fumble had been recovered on the alien 14-yard line, paved the way for the Minerites to gain even terms with the visitors. Smith carried the oval the remaining 4. yards to touchdown on the next play. A lateral, Wiggins to Cyrus, added the extra point and gave Miner a lead it never relinquished. Too Much Wiggins Too Much Wiggins Again bearing the brunt of the offense, Wiggins skirted first one end then the other, slipped through firt one tackle and then the other, to wind up a series of fruitful runs with the ball on the Cheyney 1-yard stripe. Again Smith followed the path laid down by his teammate and slid through the line for a marker. The same lad plunged through tackle for the extra point. Wiggins accounted for the third of the Martinmen touchdowns. Jackson returned a Cheyney kick-off 33 yards to little past midfield. The former General player immediately circled his own right flank for 27 yards, followed with a trip to the opponent's 8-yard line, and then on two successive ing side of the double-chalk.

Minn. — The University of Minnesota football team successfully emerged from its twenty-first straight football game with no defeats checked up against it when it subdued the strong Purdue eleven here, Saturday by a score of 29-7. Although he played no part in the scoring, DeWitt Reed, crack colored end of the Gophers, was a bulwark in the defense of the locals. Reed played the best part of the game despite the fact that numerous substitutions were made at the other flank of the Minnesota line. Howard to Feature Union Home-coming RICHMOND, Va. — Saturday, November 16, is Home-coming Day for Virginia Union "Grads." On that day the Panthers will meet their old rivals on the gridiron—the Howard Bisons, and the whole week-end will be given to the celebration of this Home-coming clash. Storer College Eleven Tops Downingtown DOWNINGTOWN, Pa. — In the first M3A start for either team, Storer College from John Brown's lair at Harper's Ferry, W. Va., upset Coach Hunt's luckless Downingtown Industrial School Eleven, 6.0, by a belated fourth quarter tally. It was the first victory on the gridiron for the Golden Tornado over the Keystone State Schoolboys. vation, John Henry Lewis is going places. Those mental factors and qualifications just outlined go to make up a condition in the ring which is hard to conquer. He is confident, determined, ambitious and believes he is entitled to a top place in his profession. That is his daily attitude." THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1935 LOUIS'S TRAINER HELD IN KILLING OF AGED MAN Jack Blackburn Faces Trial Following Death of Victim of Street Shooting CHICAGO (ANP) —Jack Black. burn, trainer of Joe Louis, and John Bowman, local man, found themselves in hot water here Friday morning, when Enoch Houser, 69-year-old citizen who was shot in the battle staged by the two on 57th Street, last Sunday afternoon, died at Provident Hospital from the wounds he received as he was passing by the place of battle. An inquest was heid Friday morning, with Deputy Coroner Benjamin Grant in charge and the decision was reached that "Enoch Houser came to his death from shots fired either by John Bowman or Jack Blackburn." The case was left open because Blackburn, who was represented by Attorney Irvin C. Mollison, was out of town being in St. Louis, Missouri, on business of training John Henry Lewis for his forthcoming battle with Bob Olin. Friends Rally to Blackburn Friends Kally to Blackburn Friends of Blackburn contend that he is not guilty of any crime; that he did no shooting but is simply a victim of circumstance. As they tell it, Blackburn went to 357 E. 57th Street, to see about renting a garden in the rear for a friend. He was set upon and beaten by Bowman and a companion and later when he returned he was fired upon by Bowman. Blackburn's friends contend that he was unarmed and therefore could do no shooting. On the other hand Bowman declares that Blackburn was the aggressor not only in the initial fight in which the ex-prizefighter was the loser, but that he fired shots in the battle in which Mr. Houser, a passerby, received the wounds from which he died Friday morning. Houser Prominent Mr. Houser is one of the first graduates of Tuskegee Institute, having graduated in the class of 1889 when Dr. Booker T. Washington was serving as principal of the school which he had founded and as teacher of the senior class. Blackburn and Bowman, both of whom have been out on bond have been ordered rerestored pending the outcome of the preliminary hearing when Blackburn returns. A young girl who was shot at the same time is recovering.

DOUGLASS ELEVEN TROUNCES POETS Baltimore High Outfit Is Easy Winner Over Dunbar Eleven BALTIMORE, Md.—Although Blondy Gordon, hard-running full-back of the Dunbar High School football team, did a turn of double-duty, his mates were unequal to the task of stopping the thrusts of a superior Douglass High School grid outfit, here last Saturday afternoon. The locals smothered the tw_w touchdowns made by Gordon with five of their own, the score ending 30-13. The Poets were completely outdone by their Oriole rivals. The latter ran, passed and kicked to such consistent advantage that the visitors never endangered the lead they acquired early in the contest. Gordon bore the brunt of his team's playing. He was not only the only sure ground-gainer the invading Washingtonians possessed but he was constantly punting the ball out of danger to avert more touchdowns by the opposition. Two Negro Stars Share Limelight As Iowa Rallies to Tie Indiana Oze Simmons and Homer Harris Responsible for Iowa Tie IOWA CITY, Ia—With one blocking an attempted placement kick for the opponents' extra point after touchdown and the other thrilling the 20,000 spectators with a scintillating run of 59 yards to score, two Negro athletes saved the University of Iowa team from defeat at the hands of the lowly University of Indiana gridders, here last Saturday afternoon, Iowa. With Big Ten Conference championship aspirations, was thus given a 6-6 tie and saved the humiliation of having its hitherto unblemished record marred by a loss to the Big Ten cellar occupants. Indiana, thrice defeated this season, is in last place in the Western Conference standing. Harris Too Daily news syndicate reports credit Oz Simmons, sensational Hawkeye back, with having saved his school from defeat. But despite the fact that Simmons's thrilling touchdown run enabled his team to catch up to their opponents, big, smiling, Homer Har- ris, sepia end of the Iowans, deserves probably aa much tribute as does his Texas teammate. For it was the smothering of a placement kick from the deadly toe of Captain Reed Kelso, white, that prevented the Indians from negotiating their sevent point, a that would subsequently have proven Iowa downfall. Simmons Scores After dominating the play throughout all of the first quarter Coach Bo McMillan's invading hode stunned the crowd with a 65-yard march down field to a touchdown shortly after the beginning of the second period. Harris smeared the extra point try. Shaken up by Coach Ossie Solem during the intermission, the Hawkeyes returned to the battle with sore thoughts. It was not long ere Simmons took a pass from center, and behind well-moulded interference shot around his left end past Che line of scrimmage, shook himself free from both the secondary and his own mates, and scampered down the sideline to count. Iowa's try for extra point was also unavailing.

Md., at Walker Stadium, here last Friday afternoon. The score was 20-0. The Purple and White was at no time a threat to the well-coached Bates youngsters. The latter counted twice in the second quarter and once in the final period to accomplish their victory. Ulysses Brown, sparkling right end of the Marylanders, was easily the outstanding star of the afternoon. Brown blocked a Cardozo punt for the opening score, the ball caroming off his outstretched arm into the hands of a team mate, and the latter running the distand to the goal.

DRS District 0110 Columbus Agog Over Armistice Day Tilt COLUMBUS, Ga. — The little metropolis of Columbus, located on the east bank of the Chattahoechee River just across the boundary line of Georgia and Alabama, is all agog over its coming seventh annual Armistice Day gridiron classic that brings the undefeated State Teachers'. College Hornets from Montgomery to face the tough Morris Brown College Wolverines from Atlanta. This annual attraction began back in 1929 in the days of Sam Taylor at Clarke when his "Black Battalion of Death" met the Hornets in a feature battle. The Hornets played Clarke again in 1930 and then Florida A. and M. in 1931 before beginning the now four-game series with the Wolverines in 1932. Hornets Again MONTGOMERY, Ala.—The Alabama State Teachers' College Hornets kept their victory slate clear at the expense of Talladega College here at Cramton, Bowl, Saturday night by registering a decisive 28-0 victory run up by almost the entire Hornet squad. in Cardozo territory. It was thus that the way was paved for the second sixpointer. BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL RIST O' THE GRIDIRON LOCAL Wednesday ARMSTRONG vs. Balto. Vocational, at Walker Stadium. Friday The Bears' powerful running attack coupled with a deceptive lateral and forward passing game gained yards after yards against the Blue and White charges of Coach Charlie West. At half time the Bears had amassed the total of 33 points. During the second half the Bisons braced however, and although Morgan was within the ten-yard stripe four times, they only succeeded in pushing over one touchdown. Howard late in the final period made its only scoring bid. Receiving the ball on their own 42-yard line after an exchange of punts, the Bison moved down field to Morgan's goal line only to have a pass, Brown to Armstrong, blocked. The work of the Bisons during this period featured Armstrong and Brown in a passing combination with the aid of the brilliant broken field running of Armstrong and B. Williams. Early in the first period Morgan took the ball on downs on their own 39-yard line, and following Troupe's dash off tackle for 8 yards, rang up the first score on two plays. The first was a lateral from Crawford to Troupe that put the ball on Howard's 2-yard line. Then Simpson went over for the score from a reverse around right end. Troupe's placement failed. Morgan showed a great back in Otis Troupe, who can run, pass or kick as the occasion demands. His running mate, Simpson, looked good on the end runs and so on.

PEACOCK SCOFFS AT NAZI ACTION Temple University Cinder Star Belittles Prejudice in Hitler's Berlin CHICAGO. (ANP) — Despite the current controversy over whether or not the United States should participate in next summer's Olympic games in Berlin, because of Nazi race prejudice, directed maily toward Jews, at least one prospective Negro member of the American team, Eulace Peacock, has no qualms about going. Peacock, Temple University student, who holds victories over Jesse Owens in the dashes and the broad jump and a member of last summer's. American team that toured Europe made his position clear in a statement to the Associated Negro Press. Germany One of 58 "I see no reason whatsoever for agitation on the part of Germany concerning American athletes competing in the 1936 Olympics," the athlete asserted. "Germany is playing only one part in the matter. She is providing the grounds and facilities with which the Olympics are to be held. There are 58 countries to compete and Germany comprises only 1-58th of the Olympics. "As to my intentions; if I am able to qualify for the Olympic team I expect to compete in Berlin in 1936." S. C.

Bisons For Thirty-first Straight Win Morgan Runs Roughshod Over Inferior Blue and White Clan By Staff Correspondent BUGLE FIELD, Baltimore, Md. —A powerful Morgan College eleven. Saturday, snowed the Howard University Bisons under an avalanche of touchdowns to register their thirty-first straight victory on the gridiron, 39-0. The brilliant backfield combination of Otis Troupe, Bill Simpson and Bill Lampkin led the Bears in the scoring, making all the touchdowns with the exception of the final second period score rushed over by Jordan. Bears Score Early In the second quarter, Morgan held Howard for downs, on the Bison's 29. Then Troune heaved a pass 20 yards to Lampkin who raced across the goal line for the second six-pointer. Troune's attempted placement was knocked down by Fenwick. "Rhode Island ed" Howard, substitute halfback for Howard, thrilled the crowd with a sensational return of Troune's punt for 28 yards. His efforts were of no value, however, as the Bisons lost the ball on downs. Crawford returned Howard's punt to the Bison 30 and Troune immediately went through center for the remaining yards and a touchdown. Crawford's placement accounted for the extra point. Aerial Intercepted After the next kickoff, a pass intended for Williams was intercepted by Toupe or Howard's 25-yard line and he raced over for the score. Again the educated toe of Crawford directed the ball between the uprights for the extra point. Following a fumble by Williams and recovery by Campbell. Jordan, substitute half, went off his own left tackle 35 yards for the last score of this period. Again Crawford converted. The half ended soon afterwards. Bears Threaten Again Soon after the kick-off, the ball was again in Howard territory. A series of line bucks and end runs, featuring Armstrong and J. Williams, however, returned the oval to mid-field. On his own fourth down, Troupe kicked to Armstrong on his own 1-yard line. Gordon's long punt was returned to his 17-yard line. Gordon's long punt was returned to his 17-yard line by run of 33 vards with Simpson lugging the ball. A pass, Troupe to Lampkins, gave the Bears a first down on their opponents' 3-yard line. The forward wall of the Bison's held on the next two downs but when Troupe was called upon to carry the ball again, he made good his opportunity and crossed the final stripe, from a charge through right tackle. His running mate, Lampkin was off-side however and the play was called back. Gordon again acquired himself well when he stopped Troupe on his last attempt to score 4 yards behind the line of scrimmage. A forward pass—lateral from Troupe to Brown to Lampkin netted 20 yards and again placed the ball in a scoring position. Anderson advanced the ball to the 3-yard line and then a first down was awarded Morgan. Lumpkin plunged over for the score on the next play to end the quarter. Troupe failed to convert. Following a penalty on Morgan before the kick-off. J Williams returned a long kick to his own 46 yard line. He was stopped by Mosby and injured on the play. The ball then see-sawed between the 25-ward stripes until the rally of the Bisons brought the spectators to their feet. Minutes later the game ended with the ball on Morgan's 37-yard line. 2,000 on Hand Some 2,000 people saw the Bison's handed their worse defeat in five starts. The stands were kept in a constant state of thrill by the skill of the home team in the execution of its plays. blocking back for Troupe and Lampkin. The visitors had the work of Red Howard, B.

No championship hangs in the balance, awaiting the outcome of this battle. Indeed it will probably not not even determine the runner-up in the M3A race. Delaware seems to have the 1935 gonfalon already in the bag and by all reasonable tokens Cheyney should be in the No. 2 spot. Bordentown and Downingtown are the only prep schools in the league. Their meeting might be said to settle the "prep championship." Actually, however, it is only a clash between two neighboring schools which have developed a great, friendly rivalry.

"Gentlemen: "The Human Betterment and Civic Association and the undersigned Citizens call your attention to the endless confusion, inconvenience, very poor and unsatisfactory street car service on the Seventh Street Rock Creek and Florida Avenue lines, since the beginning and the operation of one-man car service on the said lines. "We appreciate your reason for one-man car service in sections of the city where the passenger a two-man car service, but you traffic is not sufficient to warrant admit that this condition does not prevail on the lines in question, for the reason that you retain and operate an intermittent two-man car service on lines mentioned above. "The presence of a two-man car service operating (as a general rule) simultaneously with a one-man car service, seems to us, eliminates the necessity for the latter for the reason that the abb and flow of the passenger traffic can be adequately handled by the withdrawal of the addition of two-man cars to meet the same.

There were displayed a dozen different models of cars representing the utmost of eight manufacturers in a then infant industry. The house-and-buggy influence was still keen, as proven by the exhibition of a model called "The Oriental Buck-Board." In contrast with the 1936 show, the fact that five times as many cars will e displayed hardly does justice to the strides taken by motordom since that date nearly a generation back The floor space required by the Exhibit was approximately a thousand square feet, where the Calvert Exhibit Hall, 2701 Calbert Street, Northwest, will provide a total of 22,000 square feet of floor space to effectively display the sixty-five 1936 Models of twenty-one different makes. The twenty-one makes of 1936 Models to be displayed at The Sixteenth Annual Automobile Show, will include: Auburn, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Chrysler, DeSoto, Dodge, Ford, Hudson, Hupmobile, Lafayette, LaSalle, Lincoln, Nash, Oldsmobile, Packard, Pierce-Arrow, Plymouth, Pontiac, Studebaker and Terraplane.

SAFETY IS BIG ITEM IN NEW CARS The visitor to Washington's Sixteenth Annual Automobile Show, November 2nd to 9th, inclusive, will see considerable stress on the safety of 1936 automobiles. The automobile industry's co-operation with the National Safety Council calls for extensive educational work to acquaint the motoring public with the safety features of the new cars. Even seasoned motorists must be kept informed of any change in design which might affect their safety as witness, for example, the ease of shifting into second gear with a modern transmission when better control is needed in downgrade driving—a feat which can be dangerously easy if the driver is unfamiliar with the appropriate necessary degree of deceleration. With improvements in braking, particularly, safety dictates a warning to avoid the pitfalls based on the assumption that other drivers' cars have the same standard of braking. National Safety Council statistics show that in nearly 94 per cent of all accidents, the cars were in apparently good condition mechanically, a tribute to the high standards of manufacture and maintenance, in the motor industry. Many Points Learned At an exhibition such as the Washington Automobile Show, the motorist can pick up pointers on the driving of his car which can only be given by specialists who practically live in automobiles or, otherwise, obtained only in the course of countless miles of experimental driving. It is not alone to encourage the sale of new cars that the Sixteenth Annual Automobile Show is to be held in Washington, but to educate the general motoring public in the use of any make or model in the most efficient manner, with the various features all manufacturers are providing stressed. The Washington Automotive Trade Association feels that it will be contributing a fitting stimulant to recent Safety Campaigns in which various local organizations have co-operated, by stressing the factor of safety devices in the 1936 cars at Washington's Sixteenth Annual Automobile Show. NEW CLUB FORMED The Eliteers, a new social club was organized recently at the home of Ernest Mays, 1164 Nineteenth Street, Northwest. The following officers were elected: Carl Yates, president; Miss Josephine Frazier, vice president; Mrs. Billie Stephens, secretary; Mrs. Velma Bell, treasurer; Ernest Mays, business manager, and Mrs. Elizabeth Webb, social manager. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. TUESDAY. NOVEMBER 5. 1935 400 ATTEND HU. WOMEN'S DAY DINNER Miss Frances Grant Principal Speaker at Fourteenth Event The fourteenth annual Women's Day Dinner was held in the main dining hall on the campus of Howard university, Friday evening. Four hundred women students, graduates, and friends attending the dinner, joined in the college songs and choirs. The speaker of the evening, Miss Frances Grant, a former director of the National Association of College Women and at present an instructor in English at the Bordentown Industrial School in New Jersey, delivered an address designed especially for the undergraduates. Miss Grant talked on the general subject of "Why Go To College?" and stated that there are three general groups in college. (1) those who go because it is the thing to do; (2) those who go in order to prepare to get a job, and (3) those who go to learn in order that they may be of more service to their fellows. Dean Slowe Honored She pointed to such people as Alice Freeman Palmer and Frances Perkins as being typical of those who used their college training for better service to human beings. She urged upon the students in college to take advantage of their opportunities for getting knowledge and for using their knowledge in the service of mankind. One of the special features of the Howard Women's Dinner is the annual presentation of a "friendship circle" to Dean Lucy D. Slowe, by the women students of the university. This circle has had placed in it fourteen diamonds, one being each year to represent the years of service that Dean Slowe has given to the university. The friendship circle was presented to Dean Slowe for the first time on the occasion of her tenth anniversary. Baltimore Group Present Baltimore Group Present Another feature of the dinner was the presentation to Dean Slowe, by the Clark Hall Council, a bouquet of fourteen beautiful roses to represent her fourteen years of service to the students of the university. Dean Slowe was especially touched by this token of appreciation from the men students of the university. Letters and telegrams were received from women graduates from as far west as Los Angeles, California; as far South as Florida and Texas, and as far North as Connecticut. A delegation of twelve graduates from Baltimore had a special table at the dinner. Music was furnished by the Women's Glee Club of the university, under the direction of Miss Carolyn Grant and Miss Madeline Coleman. A freshman, Miss Margaret Montgomery, was the soloist for the evening.

Again, the TRIBUNE publishes a recent picture taken in Ethiopia and poses the question: "Does this look like barbarism?" While the cannon and rifles roar to the north and south of Addis Ababa, capital of Ethiopia, a native theatre is offering the populace war-like plays. Here is a scene from one of the plays, apparently showing a native flying the flag of surrender as he is about to be shot down by a uniformed soldier. Note the muraled background, which represents Ethiopian children at play, while airplanes, obviously friendly, roar overhead. Baltimore, Md. By J. LOGAN JENKINS, Jr. The Inter-District Committee will present Dorothy Mainor, soprano, and the Hampton Institute faculty trio in a recital at the Douglass High School, Friday evening. The recital will be given for the benefit of Morgan College. Members of the Hampton trio are: Wesley I. Howard, violinist; Harold J. Adlington, violin-cello, and Ernest Hayes, pianist. Walter Johnson, 32, who gave his address in the 1600 block of Milliman Street, was given the "works" following his arrest in East Baltimore several days ago; but only because he had the works in his possession when police caught up with him after leaving a tore in the 500 block of Gay Street. Johnson was charged with entering a store and departing with the works of a valuable watch which had been removed from the case. Responding to shots from a patrolman's pistol, Charles Harris came to a sudden stop in an alley in the rear of the 1800 block of Pennsylvania Avenue. The officer discovered that Harris was holding two boxes under his arm, containing shoes alleged to have been taken from a shoe store in the 1800 block of Pennsylvania Avenue. He gave his address in the 1700 block of Lorman Street. The Paradise Social Club issued invitations recently to their second Armistice frolic to be held at the Elks' Hall, Monday evening, November 11.

Bailey, financial secretary; Osborne Jackson, treasurer and committee chairman; Edward Matthews, manager; Henry Wallace, chaplain; Roscoe Palmer, legal adviser, and James Tarlon, servant-at-arms. Eulace Peacock, well-known track star on the Temple University team, was the main speaker Friday evening at the City-Wide Young People's Forum, held at Bethel A.M.E. Church at 8 o'clock; Music and dance owers were thrilled Monday evening as a capacity crowd filled the Strand Ballroom to be entertained by Blanche Calloway and her popular dance orchestra of musical stars. HALLOWEEN SPIRIT GRIPS BALTIMORE Swinging in with the tune already sounded as early as 8 o'clock Thursday morning, when school children began demonstrating their understanding that Halloween was being observed on that day, adults of all classes joined in the celebration. Exhibitions of what sights would be expected in the evening when the annual parade would be staged, stood out in bold acknowledgment after the closing of public schools. Fully delighted, school children returned to their classes in the afternoon in costumes and various characterizing dress to be entertained by their teachers. In many instances, parents accompanied their children and joined in the entertainment with them. At the close of school, youth took its place and the sway toward enjoyment was in visible progress. Toward evening, the younger folk retired, and attention was centered on Pennsylvania Avenue, where promises of the day were to be fulfilled. Pennsylvania Avenue. "Spotlight" There can be no doubt but that the entire demand for the city's spotlight was on Pennsylvania Avenue, where all virtues in connection with the Halloween spirit were mingling. Taverns all along the avenue were packed to the doors, while the gay crowds outside cheered the passing parade. Here and there a small group would stop and give a short comedy sketch, usually of impromptu nature, fitting perfectly with the settings along the avenue. A small group came to a sudden stop just at the moment traffic changed in favor of the East and Wound bound vehicles. This interruption to the march gave opportunity for a little comedy; so the principals began truckin' in a sort of motion with their hands as if engaged in a prizefight, bringing laughter and great cheers from the group of bystanders. Several groups with instruments issued jazz strains, invoking dancing amid the observers as well as those along the march. The entire evening offered most unusual entertainment. DEATHS OF THE WEEK The death of Martha Baker Green, wife of Elijah Green, occurred on Wednesday at her late residence.

Generations of men and women succeed each other with such rapidity, like waves of the ocean, that few adults today remember what older persons have done to make things as they are. Death strikes down the soldier in the civic field just as it strikes down him in the field of battle, and when he falls he has done his bit for the advancement of human society, just as heroically. During the past week, the grim reaper has cut down two women who gave their lives freely and gloriously for our advancement. Misses Mildred Gibbs and Ada C. Hand deserve to be memorialized. Thousands of families are today acting upon training and from ideals established by their services. They were great teachers. They became so intimately identified with the personalities of their pupils as to see almost with the same eyes. They taught not only what was prescribed in the books, but they inculcated lessons of far greater importance. They let children know that somebody cared for them, and thus became agents of society in welcoming those children into our common life or sacrifice. These women held no long list of academic degrees. They were actuated by a few simple moral principles, and, like the Lowly Nazarene, they gave their lives that others might have life more abundantly. Miss Gibbs kept the freshness of enthusiasm and hope of the adolescent girl, while Miss Hand obeyed that commandment to "become as a little child." They were indeed great teachers, and the community will not soon see their like again. Its loss is all the greater. Submit a giant intellect to the wiles of a blonde with soup meat where her brains ought to be, and see how effective intellect proves to be.

Submit a giant intellect to the wiles of a blonde with soup meat where her brains ought to be, and see how effective intellect proves to be. It may be better (who knows?) for men to slip occasionally in their morals. Otherwise, they grow furiously envious of those who get a little fun out of life. How face a world that is two-faced? Cheaper Medicine No campaign for health improvement can be a success that fails to take into account the high cost of keeping clean, getting well when sick and keeping fit while on our feet. At present there is a marked tendency toward mass production in the list of toilet necessities. One may buy almost any needed accessory at ten cents. The only thing remaining is to earn that dime and exercise the will to use the preparation It is when we come to the cost of sickness, however, that we find ourselves up against the prohibitive cost of medicine. Drugs are high at the manufacturers, the wholesalers, and hence at the drug prescription counters. Doctors have not reduced their fees so that it is noticeable. The result is all too many people either neglect to get remedies when needed or buy some advertised drug at a bargain price, or take something recommended by a friend. When the illness becomes serious or the pain irksome, then the physician may be called in too late to make a quick cure. The cost of preventable illness is astounding. We lose time from work, or if we continue to work, do it below proper efficiency. We struggle on until confined to the house or bed, and lose wages. We leave the house or bed before entirely recovered and thus suffer a relapse. Like most occasions in life, the preservation of health is a duty of first importance, and calls for rigorous attention to diet, habits and shifts in weight and bodily tone. Economic conditions allow most earners but 35 cents out of a dollar for expenses beyond the actual cost of living, hence it becomes necessary for medicines to be prescribed in smaller quantities and sold at lower costs. Such action will help the patient as well as the physician and the druggist. Our collective existence today makes these demands. Just witnessed a politician scoring a bribe. Within ten minutes he was telling a friend who blew into the lobby: "The dirty rat—offering me only $200 to grab 40 slot machines and let him snake 'em out of town instead of smash-in' 'em up.", It's an awful thing, when you're sixty to be told by the boss's new son-in-law from Yale that you've had your nose in the company feed-bag long enough.

Thomas Events are shaping themselves like those on the "eve of the French Revolution," here in America. To throw down the eyes of the people and confu Events are shaping themselves like those on the "eve of the French Revolution," here in America. To throw dust in the eyes of the people and confuse any attempt to improve a human document which has both grown from age-old experience and been modified during the 128 years of its existence — The Constitution—fanatics and special pleaders are trying to show that the foundations of the nation are being undermined. The truth is the Supreme Court has through the years since the Decision by John Marshall in 1803, placing federal power in the court, done more to undermine the Constitution than any modern movement. The Abolitionists were willing to destroy The Costitution to get rid of slavery and those who took arms against it in 1861-'64, did place their personal interpretation of it above any law. It has been amended 21 times and carries within its limits methods by which it may be further changed to meet new conditions. This attack upon people who talk of changing The Constitution is a barrage laid down by those who have enjoyed not only protection but privileges under its application. As for nullification, that has been practiced by tiers of states as it suited their purposes from time to time, and even Congress itself failed, under Republican rule, to re-apportion the representation as commanded, every ten years. Locally, the attempt to hide realities from children who must some day assume the responsibility for government, will play the same havoc with their loyalties that segregation on the basis of color is playing with the Constitution's declarations of civil rights guaranteed, and reinforced by the Civil War amendments—14th and 15th. Allowed to grow up as pampered individuals fed upon milk and water ideas, the white children here in the nation's capital and in the South will develop the weaknesses of the French aristocracy. They cannot fail to regard themselves as a superior class, sheltered from all other classes by biased decisions of the highest court in the land and by prejudices fostered by their parents who thrive upon favoritism and power. Poverty and extreme differences in class, even among the white people themselves, are serving to bring into question the absolute fairness of decisions between the man who has, and he who has not. Just as we study the evolution of American Democracy out of earlier forms of government, so we must compare it with existent forms elsewhere, and wisdom dictates the selection of the best from all time. Unfortunately, many Americans are so poorly educated that they do not know how society has evolved from the family, tribe and state into the nation and then into democracy. They do not know THE PEOPLE set up this government by a gift of their own liberty, and limited its action. They do not know that a State is but an organized tribe, because the people get their living in a relatively common way in ceah State, and the governor is little more than a tribal chieftain, being elected from among his relatives. What is needed is not less study of government, of any and all kinds, but more, so that the children at maturity may remedy some of the abuses which their elders have allowed to grow up in their haste to make money. What is needed is more research and discussion on the Constitution. American youth, white, foreign and colored, would do well to read the biographies of the men who established this government and the debates held in the several states when it was being proposed for adoption. In addition, our children need to know the purposes and trends of government in controlling greed and the despotic power of great wealth as against the best interests of the people. Only thus can we maintain a true republic—res publica, public affairs. If those whippersnappers in the New Deal would take their eyes off the honest Stock Exchange and crack down on those C.C.C. guys for washing up five minutes ahead of time, business would come along all right. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1935 The Importance of Factual Data The Importance of Factual Data By CHARLES E. HALL Specialist, Negro Statistics, Department of Commerce, Bureau of the Census, Washington, D.C. Excerpts from a speech delivered at Cheyney State Teachers' College, Pa., October 19. We are facing a new era, and the time has arrived for us to take stock, reduce our liabilities and strengthen our assets. Since the year 1790 the Government has recorded various phases of the collective life of the people of America or all stations in life, from the great and the rich to the meek and lowly and least conspicuous. These occasional surveys, census or inventories have been absolutely necessary because they furnish the required factual foundations upon which has been built a progressive and a great Nation. Without facts you cannot plan, and without plans you cannot securely build or expand. Your Federal Government itself is one of the practical beneficiaries of the work of the Bureau of the Census. Just as the manufacturers and merchants take stock of the stock of their shelves or in process of fabrication; just as the housewife checks the stock of stuffs in the pantry for the coming week; so must Uncle Sam, on behalf of his 127,000,000 nephews and nieces, continually reckon up his social and economic assets and liabilities. Frequent and thorough statistical surveys are required in order that Congress may legislate intelligently and the Chief Executive may administer efficiently the Nation's far flung activities. Since the very first census taken in 1790 our racial group has been included in these National surveys. From a total population of 757,181 at that time, of whom 697,624 or slightly in excess of 92 percent were slaves, our population increased, to 11,391,143 during the 140 years—NONE OF WHOM ARE SLAVES. This transformation of course brought on its problems and its mistakes, its development and its retardation, but through this struggle under dark clouds of poverty, ignorance, superstition and prejudice we have "carried on" until now we are able to consult a record of nearly a century and a half, check up our assets and liabilities and intelligently make plans, if we will, for our social improvement, and for a better economic security based on a foundation of factual information.

Without facts you cannot plan, and without plans you cannot securely build or expand. Your Federal Government itself is one of the principal beneficiaries of the work of the Bureau of the Census. Just as the manufacturers and merchants take stock of the goods on their shelves or in process of fabrication; just as the housewife checks the stock of foodstuffs in the pantry for the coming week; so must Uncle Sam, on behalf of his 127,000,000 nephews and nieces, continually reckon up his social and economic assets and liabilities. Frequent and thorough statistical surveys are required in order that Congress may legislate intelligently and the Chief Executive may administer efficiently the Nation's far flung activities. Since the very first census taken in 1790 our racial group has been included in these National surveys. From a total population of 757,181 at that time, of whom 697,624 or slightly in excess of 92 percent were slaves, our population increased, to 11,391,143 during the 140 years—NONE OF WHOM ARE SLAVES This transformation of course brought on its problems and its mistakes, its development and its retardation, but through this struggle under dark clouds of poverty, ignorance, superstition and prejudice we have "carried on" until now we are able to consult a record of nearly a century and a half, check our assets and liabilities and intelligently make plans, if we will, for our social improvement, and for a better economic security based upon a foundation of factual information. Statue and Progress But for these occasional surveys made by the Bureau of the Census how would we know that in 1930, Negroes lived in every State and in 2,855 of the 3,100 subdivisions called counties, parishes and independent Cities; that our illiteracy decreased from 81.4 percent in 1870 to 16.3 percent in 1930; that 60 percent of the Negro population 5 to 20 years of age attended school in 1930 as compared with only 9.2 percent in 1870; that in the principal professions there were 54,439 school teachers; 25,034 clergymen; 10,583 musicians and teachers of music; 5,728 trained nurses; 3,805 physicians and surgeons; 2,146 college presidents and professors; 1,773 dentists; and 1,247 lawyers, judges and justices?

How would we know, without this data, that there is a family distribution of some of our professional groups in relation to the requirements or needs of our population? We find, for instance, that the saturation point has been reached for several professional groups in certain large cities, and to be specific we find that nearly 40 per cent of our physicians and surgeons are located in 7 northern States and the District of Columbia, having a combined population of less than 19 per cent of the total Negro population of the United States; that in Pennsylvania there are only 2,093 Negroes of all ages to each Negro physician and surgeon; 1,966 in New York and 1,952 in New Jersey as compared with 8,145 in Alabama; 11,846 in South Carolina and 14,221 in Mississippi, but when we check up the distribution by States of our dentists and our lawyers we find the ratios even more disproportionate. all of which suggests an urgent need of a planned distribution of these professional groups in order that the lives and property of Negroes may be properly cared for.

Race Largely Rural But for the National stock-taking, how would we know that Negroes and Indians constitute the only racial groups having a 50 per cent or more rural population, that nearly 66 per cent of the Negroes living in Pennsylvania were born in other States; that there are 7 cities, 4 in the North and 3 in the South with Negro populations of 100,000 or more; that there are 15 cities having 50,000 or more Negro inhabitants; 34, having 25,000 or more; 80 having 19,000 or more; 147, having 5,000 or more; 263, having 2,500 or more, and 695 cities and suburban places having 1,000 or more Negro inhabitants?

Planning Ear Ahead Only recently I was requested by a high government official to prepare a statistical table that would show the Negro population by certain age groups. Upon the completion of the table I asked what use would be made of the tabulation, and his reply was substantially as follows: Only recently I was requested by a high government official to prepare a statistical table that would show the Negro population by certain age groups. Upon the completion of the table I asked what use would be made of the tabulation, and his reply was substantially as follows: "Of course we know the approximate production, the imports and exports, and the apparent per capita consumption of the principal foodstuffs in the States. We know the birth and death rates of the population, the excess of births over deaths and we are now making yearly calculations covering a period of Fifty years that will show the acreage needed and the production required to adequately meet the annual food demands of the total population. Your table will be used in connection with our plans to determine the yearly quantities of food required by individuals of different age groups." The above instance shows the use to which factual data is used in making plans for the remote future. (To be continued next week.) IMPARTANCE OF FACTUAL DATA—14 Pt TO ANGELO HERNDON By Anita T.

By FLOYD J. CALVIN HAIL F. D. PATTERSON All of the pomp and power that has accrued to organized education through the centuries will be unlashed and exhibited at the inauguration of the Third President of Tuskegee Institute shortly. On this occasion the power and glory of education as such, and not just the growth of Negro education, will be presented. For educators from North, South, East and West, colored and white, will be in attendance. Here, for the first time, the real meaning of the training of Negroes will receive full fellowship in American education with Negro education acting as host. This fact alone will make the event an historical and memorable occasion. But above and beyond this will be the exaltation of Negro brain power. And here we will see Negro youth take the center of the stage on a basis of mental ability in the executive field—something new again. For heretofore no such recognition has been accorded Negro youth, even though it was deserving. The idea is new. All hail F. D. Patterson. WHAT IS AN AGGRESSOR NATION? To the average human, who is not concerned about the finese of international trickery, it seems like nonsense for the League of Nations to be sending observers to find out "who will be the aggressor" in the Italo-Ethiopian" conflate. For more than a year Italy has been proclaiming to the world its intention of murdering Ethiopians and capturing their property; to substantiate this frankly confessed aim, Musolini has shipped and massed nearly a quarter million of Itanian soldiers right at Ethiopia's door. In ordinary life and in common sense, if any individual published abroad his intention to kill an opponent, an arsenal and took up his position on his opponent's doorsteps, against the firm, frequent and patient protests of the man in the house.—nowhere in civilized law would the man in the house run any risk of being called the "aggressor" if he shot first. If we interpret the League's technical position correctly, they are still trying to find out, by airplanes and suy glasses, whether some Abyssinian throws a spearhead at an Italian before that Italian turns a machine gun on that Abyssinian. Nonsense. The marvelous thing is, the restraint and self-control of Haile Selassie and his brave people, while watching for many months the piling up of this menace to their very lives. It will be easy for Italy, which has East African blacks under its command, to create a seeming attack by blacks. It will be just as easy to provoke a genuine attack from Ethiopian forces by violating the ill-defined boundry lines be-Italy, with malice aforethought, has refused to agree on a defining of those frontiers and boundry lines. We hope the League of Nations will allow no irrelevant incident to interrupt their projected action against the well-known aggressor. School Bank From Downingtown, Pa., comes some interesting news of a school bank. The Downingtown Industrial and Agricultural School, J. H. N. Waring, Jr., principal, carries in the school Pulletin this item headed "School Bank Goes Over Top": "In her first year as sponsor of the Student Bank, Mrs. L. T. Mitchell, with Mildred C James as cashier, saw two records broken. On November 27, 1934, the bank had $1,444.19 as its balance at the end of that day's business—the largest in its ten-year history. At the end of the year 1934.55 the balance was $879.07, which exceeded any balance at the end of any previous year." Deposits reached the high mark of $1,775.68. This is a comparatively obscure school, but it has a man of vision and real educational instincts at its head. Thith Ith Tho There is more romance and strange things in the history of journalism than can be found in any other profession in the world. Here is a bit of journalistic ingenuity that shows the sort of stuff of which newspaper men are made. Probably the oddest newspaper ever published was the one that was issued in California—the Sawtelle Sentinel—which had to make its appearance without the letter "s." The editor made an explanation as follows: "At the time the Thentintel wath about half thet up, an evil dith-pothed mithercent entered our office and carried away all our etheth, and for thith reathon our thubtherberth will pleathe pardonuth and do the betht they can in reading thome of the articlth which are thpelled in the unthual manner which they may have obtherved in thith thatement. Pleathe execute it." Fav Says— The President is on the high seas. The Vice-President and some senators and congressmen have accepted the invitation of the Philippine government to visit the island at the expense of the little brown men. The country goes on about its business showing folks that it isn't necessary for the big Democrats to be in Washington in order for things to function properly. The Republicans ought to show voters next fall that things can run without the Democrats. Federal News Notes by LAURENCE J. W. HAYES I am pleased to observe that Negro Americans are rapidly learning how to play the great game of politics. I can off-hand think of two recent events which I think bear me out in the aforementioned statement. First, we see that, ir. the 21st district in Harlem, by post-primary juggling of county committeeeen votes from their white opponents, two Negroes, Ferdinand Q. Morton, civil service commissioner, and Herbert L. Bruce, restaurant man, have been elected Tammy Hall district leaders for the first time. Bruce, in the 21st district, leader of the Beavers Democratic Club, trailed Charles P. Concklin, white, but the other Negro candidate, Assemblyman William T. Andrews, prevailed on his committeeeen to vote for Bruce, thereby assuring his rival of a clear majority. This action, I feel, is indicatively significant. Another case, in this category to which I should like to call your attention, is that of James Weldon (Negro Americans, What Now?) Johnson, prominent New York Attorney and National Vice President of the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, who is the first colored man to be nominated for the board of aldermen in his district (the 21st) on either party ticket. Attorney Johnson, who maintains his law office in the 21st district at 200 W. 135th Street, is really a resident of the 22nd, residing in the Dunbar apartments. Mr. Johnson, who though a Republican, has been active as an attorney for several Democratic groups, and since his opponent is white the colored Democrats, led by recently elected Democratic leader Herbert L. Bruce of the 21st district, have decided to make an exception in his case and appeal to their friends in Mr. Johnson's district to help him. Mrs. Annie Mae Meriweather, Negress, whose husband was killed in the August share-croppers strike in Alabama (under the tutelage of Prof. Joseph S. Gelders) former Alabama University teacher, came to Washington last week to plead the cause of the Southern tenant farmer. One of her chief complaints was made to the Post Office Department, where she sought to show that mail addressed to members of the Sharecroppers Union in Lowndes County, Alabama, is opened by a Post Office official who is also a land-owner. To the Works Progress Administration she contended that perons on relief are being used as strike-breakers in Lowndes County, where cotton pickers are trying to get $1 for picking 100 pounds of cotton.

Because of the extremely difficult task of securing adequate office space, the Resettlement Administration's various divisions and sections are quartered in 17 different buildings in Washington. A bitter, secret struggle is being carried on by the heads of two government agencies over which agency is to house two pieces of paper. The pieces of paper referred to are the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence and the two government agencies involved are the Library of Congress or the brand new National Archives Building. The question to be decided is whether the historic document should remain in the possession of the Library of Congress (where it has been since its removal from the State Department under an Executive Order by President Harding on September 29, 1921) or be transferred to the New National Archives. Both buildings have shrines in which to display the document. The library has a marble table where the Declaration and the Constitution, carefully wrapped in yellow cellophane to prevent deterioration, now are seen by hundreds of sightseers daily. The central section of the Archives Building contains a bronze case designed to contain them. Although R. D. W. Connor, archivist of the United States remains silent on the controversy now raging, other National Archives officials contend that legislation passed in 1934 provided that the archivist should have "charge and superintendence" of all records belonging to the Government and he should have full power "to requisition for transfer to the National Archives establishment such archives or records as the National Archives Council shall approve for transfer." The legislation repealed all inconsistent previous laws. --- recently received the chief of the committee of Treasury, moner G. E.

The principles, which are to create a uniform method of handling bad debts incurred by employees, at least should remove the condition of chaos which now prevails. There is considerable apprehension in the ranks of all of the emergency agencies. The reason is that word has been passed down the line that the President has decreed that a batch of alphabetical units heretofore exempt from budget control are to lose their freedom. In this connection, there is the proposition of reducing the number of emergency employees. Many of the jobs will be pretty hard to justify to the Budget Bureau, and reductions are, of course, to be expected unless the President decides it is as yet too soon to begin mining.

But Thomas Rowan, the author of "Black Earth" (Hillman-Curl, $2.50) has spent most of his life in the midst of danger and has come through with a whole—or practically whole—skin, for in spite of all his good luck he carries a few bulletholes for souvenirs. Rowan started out in life as a miner in the coal fields of Alabama. Mere blasting with the danger of cave-ins and firedamp were not exciting enough for him, and he soon took the hazardous job of riding the "fast rope" as the task of hauling out the loaded cars is called. From this he jumped to busting broncos on a horse ranch in Texas, followed by a period of circus riding for Weidmann Brothers and the famous 101 Ranch. In 1913 he went into the Army and became a scout under General Funston. But he found the Army life too tame for him and in 1916 he joined the famous Red Lombard of San Francisco in an attempt to break the Longshoremen's Strike. It was here that he first made contact with Tom Mooney, and came within one tick of the clock to putting an end to Mooney's career. For several years Rowan pursued the stormy life of a strike-breaker, but at last he wearied of it and retired to Alabama to spend the rest of his days in the peaceful pursuits of a writing-man. But adventure dogged his footsteps, and one of the first events his retirement led to was a gun fight in which he killed his assailant. Th victim was politically prominent and his friends were able to persuade the authorities that Rowan was too dangerous a man to be released on bail. so Rowan spent 482 days in jail and faced three trial juries before obtaining his liberty. On the first trial the jury disagreed, and Rowan went back to jail the next term of court, six months later. It was February 1932, when he was led back into court to face the sowling countenance of Justice Alfred E. Hawkins, who has won no little fame in his conduct of the case of the Scottsboro Negro boys, who, though unexecuted are still behind the bars. Judge Hawkins did as much for Rowan, and the jury promptly convicted him. An appeal to the Supreme Court reversed the decision and on a third trial the defendant was acquitted. Rowan has still persisted in his desire for a literary career, though he has deserted the turbulent uproad of an Alabama village for the almost pastoral quietude of Manhattan. --- "Creating the Modern American Novel" has a fine basic approach to American Literature as a whole.

ROGERS Students are urged to study and learn one fact about Negro history each week. The material here is taken from "One Hundred Amazing Facts About the Negro," by J. A. Rogers, author of "From Superman to Man" and other books about Negro history. The Negro arrived in the New World free from tuberculosis, syphilis or other venereal disease. Livingstone, the famous African missionary and medical doctor, says, "syphilis dies out in the African interior. It seems incapable of permanence in any form in persons of pure African blood." Syphilis originated in Europe in 1494, when there was a great epidemic of it. As this was two years after the discovery of the new world, it was erroneously believed to have been brought back by the sailors of Columbus. BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL Richmond Richmond, Va. By WORTHY JONES By WORTHY JONER praised the work of the Rev. S. L. Parham, as pastor of the church. The Rev. Mr. Parham, who had been ill during his anniversary services was present on the closing night. RICHMOND, Va.—A crowd of 1,000 persons packed the Fourth Baptist Church here this week to attend the funeral of Mrs. Elizabeth C. Payne. She was the widow of the late Dr. Ernest Payne who pastored Fourth Baptist for nearforty years. The following deaths were reported in the city this week: Andrew Gill, Mrs. Lucy Henry, Robert Morris, Mrs. Bessie Dennis, Mrs. Sarah Cheatham Brown, Mrs. Ethel Smith, Mrs. Rosa Carter, William O. Huston, of Washington, and Sidney Ryland. Her funeral was preached by the Rev, J. A. Brown, pastor of the church. Many prominent ministers too part in the services. The tenth anniversary of the pastorate of Dr. Gordan B. Handcock was observed here last week with some of the city's most outstanding men and women taking part in the services. Dr. Handcock was praised for the work he has accomplished at Moore Street Baptist Church, which church he has pastored for ten years. The Junior Choir of First Baptist Church, South Richmond, was entertained at the home of Mrs. Thelma L. Taylor, 726 Catherine Street. This was the regular monthly meeting of the choir.

Cabmen Talk Re-strike as Pack is Broken CHICAGO, Ill. — Negro taxi drivers employed by well-to-do taxi companies on the South Side here are now fighting against intolerable conditions. More than 200 of these drivers, who rent their cabs from such companies as the Montell Cab, the Jackie Cab, and the Party Cab, went out on a two-day strike for a reduction in rental rates, and a reduction of gasoline costs. Their demands were granted. But no sooner had they returned than the promises made to them were broken. There is more talk of a re-strike. President Lincoln was a failure in the eyes of people who didn't vote for him. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1935 MINER TEACHERS CRUSH CHEYNEY FOOTBALLERS Maroon & Gold Score First Grid Win at Expense of Pennsylvanians The local Miner Teacher College gridders scored an impressive 20-6 victory over the football team from Cheyney Teachers' College, Cheyney, Pa., at Walker Stadium, here last Saturday. It was the first win of the year for the Washingtonians. Cheyney and Miner had met on the gridiron earlier in the year, when both opposed the Howard University eleven in the latter's season opener. Cheyney played Howard in the first game of a double-heard and the Minerites furnished the opposition in the final. This, however, had no effect on the keen rivalry that was felt in Saturday's contest. Whereas both had been trying for the same thing on that earlier occasion, victory over Howard, each was trying equally as hard to stop the other in this meeting between them. Steve Wiggins, graduate of the Armstrong High School of this city and a former star player there, was the leading individual performer in Saturday's tilt. Southern Medical Association Raises Color Bar CHICAGO, (ANP) — Despite common grounds for brotherhood through membership in a humanitarian profession and a need for the general bettering of health, conditions in Dixie, the Southern Medical Association is firmly retaining its color bar, according to information contained in its invitations for the annual meeting at St. Louis, November 19-23, Illinois doctors discovered this week. The action of the association is the direct contrast with the position taken by the Southern tuberculosis association, National Tuberculosis Association and Duke University, Durham, N. C., a resume shows. Members of the Illinois State Medical Society, of whom 18 are Negroes, received invitations from the Southern Association, the second largest in the country. The letter, however, stated expressly, "We will be glad to have, a large number of white members of the Illinois State Medical society with us in St. Louis next month. . All activities are available without cost to all white members of county and state medical societies." Will Hear Negro Report Although Negroes will be barred from the session as they are from membership, through the organization's constitution, one of the meetings at St. Louis will deal with colored. If the public were half as budgety as the business man, there wouldn't be half as many business men. Consecration Services Held By Young People's Society The Young Peoples Society of Christian Endeavor of the Third Baptist Church celebrated its monthly Consecration services at the church Sunday afternoon.

Donat and Madeleine Carroll, now showing at the Booker T.

The picture is interpersed with clever dialogue and situations. Several highlights include the spectacular escape of the hero from a moving train, the interlude when Donat is handcuffed to Madeleine Carroll and has to spend the night with her at an inn, and an effective last scene when the spy gang is rounded up in a London variety hall.

It is a literal interpretation of "the call of the wild," produced as a stirring saga of the last of our great frontiers and invested with a dramatic love story. Gable swashbuckles through the gold camps, a picturesque prospector ready to stake his fortune on the flip of a coin. His code is the code of the frontier—a rough but honest variation of the "golden rule." Into his life comes Loretta Young, a San Francisco socialite. Life becomes a primitive thing, with the artificial lustre of civilization stripped from it. Their close companion is "Buck," the huge St. Bernard dog in whom Jack London vested this great story.

Return of Vaudeville Foreseen NEW YORK. (ANP) — Hope for the return of vaudeville and presentations shows to the bigger movie houses was expressed in a column by Ed Sullivan of the Daily News, who declared that the drop in receipts for the two-feature shows at the bigger houses has the magnates anxious to bring favorable' commendation from the audiences. This means that the return of a number of colored stars back the shows which won such at an early date is believed safely predicted. By the time we are sixty, our complaints against life become suffused and mild.

When talkies came Mr. Murray and Fred Pelham were alert and ready to install sound equipment before many large houses in America ventured into what many said would be a brief fad. Ray and Mike as these two friends called each other worked day and night and after experimenting were able to offer to the Dunbar patrons recordings and sound effects that were the talk of the town. The western pictures with the yelling and shot-sounds added more realness, of course, to this brand of action pictures, and from then until now the house of Murray carries the latest in western and mystery films. Mr. Murray who died a year ago this month had established a policy at the Seventh and T Streeks house that his successors, Marshall, his son, and Lambert Marshall, his brother-in-law, have found advisable to maintain.

California.—Bill (Bojangles) Robinson, world's greatest tap dancer, was under the care of physicians here early last week following his narrow escape of death by drowning while working Thursday. Robinson was making a scene with John Boles, screen star, when the raft on which they were supposedly fleeing from prison over- HUCHES'S PLAY HAD PREMIER ON BROADWAY NEW YORK (ANP)—The tragedy of race relations in the deep south is death with in "Mulatto." Langston Hughes's new play, which opened on Broadway, Monday, October 21 at the Vanderbilt Theatre. The drama, which stars Rose McClendon and Chick McKinney, is an adaptation of the story, Father and Son, printed in Hughes's latest book, The Ways of White Folks. Briefly the story around the convict between a white father and his militant mulatto son and events follow thick and fast when the relationship becomes known and threatens the father's political ambitions. One tragic incident follows another and the play ends on a grim, almost melodramatic, note with the father slain, the son a suicide, a sister the victim of a rapist and a mob howling for the "uppity" young mulatto's life. Against the drama of these events Hughes attempts to throw into bold relief the social system of the South and the emphasis of turned: Boles was thrown clear off the raft while Robinson was struck by the heavy logs and knocked unconscious. Robinson submerged in the water tank. When he did not come up, James Donlan, white, electrician, dived in and pulled him out. Dancer Revived Emeregency treatment was given the world famous dancer immediately but it was not until after the use of the pulmotor of the Fox Studio Fire Department that the tap dancing star was revived. Robinson suffered several abrasions while Boles was only slightly injured. The two stars were filming "The Little Rebel," another Shirley Temple picture. Robinson had not issued a statement when this was written. BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL the drama is on the manner in which artificial racial division operate to bring tragedy into the lives of both whites and Negroes who live within its shadow. Spirited Climax The production of the play climaxes a long period of pre-occupation with the miscegation theme on Mr. Hughes's part. One of his earliest poems, Cross, deals with it and its tenor may be guaged from the opening stanza: "My old man's a white old man, And my old mother's black; If ever I cursed my white old man. I take my curses back." The poem ends on a rather despairing note with the protagonist wondering where he'll "die being neither white nor black." Something of the same spirit pervades the play, but the hero's note of defiance serves to retrieve the defeatist attitude that almost always creeps into stories of this kind. Will Cause Controversy The play is bound to cause violent conflict when it is viewed by southerners or southern sympathizers who like to pretend that misregination never occurs except when a Negro rapes a white woman. On the other hand, the play depicts the very common situation in which a white planter not only has a colored mistress but acknowledges and educates the children of the marriage BOOK 1433 U ST UNTIL THURSDAY Handcuffed TO THE GIRL WHO DOUBLE-CROSSED HIM The "Monte Cristo" hero...

Mrs. Byrd is represented by Attorney George A. Parker. In her petition, the wife asserts that she was married to the defendant in 1926. Nine years later, April, 1925, she declares, he left their home and has not since returned. During the time of their marriage, Mrs. Byrd states, Mr. Byrd left home on numerous occasions, staying away for several days at a time. Between the months of April and August, last, the wife claims, her husband contributed an average of $5 weekly to the support of herself and the child. Since that time, however, he has made no contributions to them. Mr. Byrd, according to the complainant, is an employee of the Dunbar Taxi Company, and receives an average salary of $20 a week. She says she earns about $10 weekly herself. Where most of us shine is at the seat of our pants. SEVEN French Mayor is U. S. Visitor M.
