SMITH, HOPKINS' AIDE, FINDS DISCRIMINATION IN W.P.A. Virginia Court of Appeals Refuses to Grant New Trial RICHMOND, Va.—The appeal of John Shell and Joseph Jackson, death house prisoners, who are facing death in the electric chair for the murder of Mr. and Mrs. John T. Coleman, aged white Spot. sylvania County farm couple will be carried to the United States Supreme Court, E. A. Norrell, Richmond counsel for the defendants, announced Thursday. Norrell's announcement followed the Virginia State's Supreme Court of Appeals dismissal of a writ of error, which had been previously granted, on the grounds that the motion for a new trial was not made within the time limit set by law. Norrell, in his argument several weeks ago before the State Court, listed among the fourteen assignments of errors the fact that there were no Negroes on the Spotsylvania Circuit Court jury which tried the men and he contended that they were not adequately represented by counsel. Appeal Denied The Appelate Court ruled that "judgment had become final and the trial judge had lost jurisdiction of the case before any exceptions were noted or motion was made to set aside the verdict" and declared that the writ of error was "improvidently awarded." (See SHELL, Page 2) Girl Who Bit Teacher Apologizes; Transferred Miss Lydia Brown, teacher in Cardozo High School, who was in Freedmen's Hospital undergoing treatment for an infected arm, has returned to her class-room, Dr. Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of school, reported this week. A student, Lois E. Maddon, who is alleged to have bitten Miss Brown when she attempted to take a note from her, was made to apologize to the teacher in the presence of the class before which the incident occurred, and was later transferred to the Dunbar High School at the request of the child's parents, the Tribune learned. It was necessary for physicians at Freedmen's Hospital to perform an operation on the teacher's arm, which had become infected from the bite. She remained in the hospital for a period of ten days.

Smith Completes Investigation of Discrimination in New York PWA Office THREE APPOINTED TO ADJUST CASES Administrator Ridden Says There Is No Discrimination and None Will Be Tolerated A ten-day investigation into alleged discrimination in the New York City office of the Works Progress Administration, has just been completed by Alfred Edgar Smith, administrative assistant to the PWA Administrator, Harry L Hopkins, the Tribune learned this week.

As a public utility they have become a public nuisance. People in the low income brackets who must use them to go to and from work, and thousands who use them for convenience have been pushed, jerked, bumped, packed like sardines in distasteful jams after waiting and then rushing from front to rear ends and back again. If you thought it a front-entrance car, and attempted to enter, you were rejected and forced to go to the rear; if thinking it a two-man car, you went to the rear, you were forced to run through traffic in a vain attempt to get in the front with scores of others waiting at some dumping point for a transfer. Saying nothing of the raw deal given the Washington public while the traction merger was pending; neglecting to mention the unkept road beds and poor service, for months of profit-taking; overlooking the lack of adequate equipment and the outworn, ancient rolling stock used for many months after the deal was consummated.—We come to the low pay for operatives covered by paying them more wages, but introducing the oneman cars, that have never been agreeable to the patrons, the long waits at transfer points for cars coming in bunches with filthy interiors and windows, poor ventilation and small capacity.

God has given us a spiritual measuring rod with which to check values. The old Puritan idea of the Christian was that he was just marking time in this world of sin and error until he could get to heaven. He was a pilgrim in this world but a citizen in the next. But Jesus tells us that we are in immortality now. That is the reason why the Christian has his own system of check and measurements of success—which do not always agree with this world's. His measuring rod must check in two worlds. Jesus always put spiritual success above material success. Our great business in life. He said, is to grow in love for God and man. The material success we make is incidental. What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul? ***** ***** **** ***** **** BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL pastor (inset), who was feted at a reception of a week's celebration in honor of his sixth Vermont Avenue Baptist Church.

BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL D.C. BAR HEAD FLAYS LEADERS TO STUDENTS Attorney Dodson Speaker At Fraternity Achievement Week Program LINCOLN UNIVERSITY, Pa. —Attorney Thurman L. Dodson, president of the Washington Bar Association, was the principal speaker at the eleventh annual Ne- gro Achievement Week program held here Sunday under the auspices of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity. In a bitter attack upon the pres- ent-day leadership, Attorney Dodson asked for a rebirth of the lead- ership exemplified in the lives of Frederick Douglass and John M. Langston. The speaker told the students that the exponents of the Booker Washington theory of leadership had undermined, or at- tempted to undermine, any attem- tup to demand a square deal for the Negroes in this country on the part of any militant group. Leader Deserts NNA Declaring the New Negro Alliance as the leader of militancy in demanding rights of Negroes, Mr. Dodson told the Lincoln University students that a high official in the public school system and a judge on the municipal court bench deserted the organization when the plans of the alliance were being put into effect. The speaker pleaded with the students to not compromise or minimize on important issues affecting the rights of millions. In challenging the student body to a new type of leadership, Mr. Dodson said the South was an open and fertile field. He said, "Do not be content to sit in utility row as millions of your people in the great southland are crying for a new deal in leadership." Parker Presides Barrington Parker' son of the dean of the Robert H. Terrell Law School, presided over the program. Musical numbers were rendered by the university quartet and C. L. Ballard, organist.

ARMSTRONG American Education Week furnished the topic for home-room discussions Monday. At the fifth period, Tuesday, the girls in sewing classes and the boys in the carpentry shop were shown motion pictures on the manufacture of sewing machines. At the Tuesday morning assembly, Dr. Carter G. Woodson noted historian and former principal of Armstrong, reviewed the economic situation of the Negro in American and foreign countries. He was introduced to the student body by Bertha Hutchinson. Dr. Woodson, called attention to the amalgamation of the Negro in South America, to his importance numerically in the West Indies, and to his strategic position in Africa due to climate. When it comes to the economic status of the Negro in the United States, Dr. Woodson remarked that we are a segregated minority. "Segregation," he cautioned, "can become a form of annihilation on account of the physical hardships which it frequently inflicts." He advised the pupils that they might fight this best through their own attitude towards themselves and their people. "Think of the Negro," he said, "as belonging to the human family and as entitled to all opportunities. Learn to look upon ourselves as equal by lifting our race out of drudgery through our own creative efforts. By creating things for the world's markets, the Negro has his best chance for making a place in the world's economic sphere." Friday was the date of Armstrong's widely-heralded carnival, and a carnival it proved to be in spirit, crowds and variety of attractions. More than 1,000 people - old and young, thronged the corridors to attend the mystery play, that circus the puppet show, and vaudeville program. They trailed through a chamber of horrors and the fun house, they saw infant pictures of the faculty, marvelled at the freak show, played games of skill or had their fortunes told. The many pupils taking part in the different carnival stunts and sketches displayed real talent. The shop classes contributed a great amount of help in the way of scenery, properties and costumes. Students and faculty worked as one big team to make the Armstrong Carnival a success. TERRELL "Education Week" was emphasized by special programs in each room but the whole school was benefited by a dramatization to stimulate wholesome and worthwhile reading which was presented by Mrs. Hillman and a selected group as follows: Roberta Bryant, Rhudine Walker, Dorothy Smith.

Cecelia Bell and Julia McRoy conducted the devotionals which preceded the picture. The assembly program, Friday, was conducted by Section 7B-4, under the direction of C. H. Baltimore. Their program was a very clever radio broadcast. Wendell Jackson, announcer for Station SHAW presided over the program which consisted of songs and two poems by Rajino Horn and David Miles. A fine feature was a star double quartet composed of: Kenneth Brooks, Robert Flannigan, Albert Hill, David Miles, Joseph Prince, Samuel Compton Orpheus Evans and Frederick Williams. At the conclusion of the broadcast the announcer introduced Belford Lawson, prominent local attorney, who spoke briefly but eloquently on "Education." Mr Lawson paid a splendid compliment to teachers of American youth, and pointed out in a striking manner the value of an education. He challenged pupils $ t_{0} $ take advantage of all available educational opportunities and prepare themselves to make a worthwhile contribution to society. Miss D. W. Frazier gave a short summary of the various themes of American Education Week and emphasized those features which most directly affect school children today. Practically the whole student body attended the movie, "The Star Packer," in the school auditorium. Thursday, Mrs. M. W. Lewis was in charge of arrangements for the entertainment. The major puns in electricity, under the supervision of W E. Webb, handled the showing of the film very skillfully. Reports of the Handwriting Tests, administered by Miss C. E. Martin, director of penmanship, were gratifying. A large percentage of the puns were at or above grade standard. Let every man sweep the snow from before his own doors and not trouble himself about the frost on his neighbor's tiles. — Chinese Proverb.

IN ATHLETICS, the Negro is making himself felt as a serious factor whenever a discussion of the great or near greats is brought about. In the seventy years of his exist- ence as a MAN among men, he has gradually climbed to the top of the ladder in pretty nearly every branch of physical achievement. His rise, though by no means rapid, has been none-the- less, phenomenal. The numerous hardships he has faced, the many handicaps -he has had to overcome, and the in- cessant battle he has waged — and successfully — against unfair public scorn and ridicule, makes him deserving of & slap on the back. Here's a hand to the black athlete. eee ee ~ IN BOXING, Joe Louis and John Henry Lewis today stand out as leaders in their resnective divisions. The Detroit youth was, less than a week ago, cited as the greatest fighter of all time, being paid this tribute by a group of sports writers, whose names are respected in every corner of the nation. in which sheets of the daily press reach and are read. 4 Damon Runyan, considered by this department, the peer of all the present-day writers, is the person who told of the selection of Louis. Even he expressed surprise that the Brown Bomber was so highly regarded so early in his career, But het didi nott hesitate to let it be known that Louis was the choice in this little informal get-to- gether between a group of his colleagues and himself. And when men of the calibre of Runyan, and Paul Gallico, and Bill Corum, and Caswell Adams, and Walter Stewart, and John Kieran, and Walter St. Denis, etc., look upon Louis as the greatest of the greats, then a black man has reached the top. Space doesn’t permit us to go further into a discussion of the merits of the Phoenix, Arizona, youngster of the same name (though little different spell- ing). And beside, we've talked about Lewis plenty, during the past few weeks. Ve meee IN FOOTBALL, there can be no questioning of the statement that Oze Simmons, the ebony flash of the Uni- versity of Iowa, is a celebrity in his own right. Simmons has played bang-up football throughout the better part of the past two seasons. And especially noteworthy have been his feats of the current year in which he literally ran roughshod over the early season opponents of the Hawkeyes, defeated strong Colgate almost single-handed and later, with the help of another colored lad, enabled his team to offset ® surprise defeat at the hands of an inferior Indiana Uni- versity team. The splendid work of the sepia Iowan has served to recall the accomplishments of the great Fritz Pollard, one of the only three Negroes ever to he named on the official All-American football team, that of the late Walter Camp. W. H. Lewis of Harvard, and Paw Robeson of Rutgers, were the other two to gain the distinction. Although this trio was the full extent to which the black griddcr has been accepted among the nation’s football immortals, there have been any number of colored boys who have received honorable mention for the All-American. Also in the football limelight is Al DuVall, the present tackle at Loyola University in California. DuVall, like Simmons, has been picked as a candidate for this year’s All-American football board, headed by Christy Walsh, white. Then too, there is Chuck Burgwin at Western Reserve University at Cleveland. And among the others, those of the past, were Duke Slater, Iowa; Willis Ward, Michigan; Charlie West, Washington and Jefferson; Bruce McCrary, Michigan State; Ted Rosequist, Ohio State; Brice Taylor, California; Bub Shelburne, Dartmouth, and quite a few more. ee eee ., IN BASEBALL, though we're not altogether in accord with the idea of the Negro being tried out as big league material, we have no doubt there are many who could ex- cel, even if placed to the test with such as make up the Detroit Tiger and St. Louis Carinal teams of today; the New York Yankee and New York Giant outfits of yesterday; or the Philadelphia Athletic and Boston Brave aggregations of day before yesterday. Connie Mack, the venerable old gent who rules the destinies of the Quaker City’s League entry, has been re- ported as paying glowing tribute to Nip Winters, a black southpaw of several years back. ..Winters, Washingtonians will recall, is a native son. ..Then there was John McGraw who made several futile attempts to bring the colored ball player into the organized game... Several of the national pastime’s celebrities have engaged in barnstorming and Post-season competition with Negro teams and all have edmitted that the black player was not wanting in ability. There was Dizzy Dean who, today, ranks Satchell Paige as one of the game’s greatest pitchers. And there was Hack Wilson who thought a lot of the first base play of Showboat Thomas. There was Monte Weaver who con fessed holding no little respect for the batting of Jud Wil- son, stare were both Muddy Ruel and Sam Rice who spoke nit of the base-running of Scrappy Brown. IN BASKETBALL, the New York Renaissance have held their own for nigh on to ten years. Their prowess on the hardwood is a topic of conversation wherever and whenever the arrival of the indoor season means anything. Included in their long line of contests over the years are victories over such stellar aggregations as the New York Original Celtics, the Cleveland Rosenblooms, the Buffalo Bisons, the Brooklyn Visitations and the Chicago Bruins. rag such men Sat cage Tors COs zenny Ricks, Eyre Sgitch, Bil Slocum, Harold Mayer, Specks Motes, ‘A Yancey and some of oe others, might easily have made the ‘im the now defunct professional bgs- ketball league awhiteg, is a foregque conclusion.

I. A. A. gridiron championship for 1935 fade and vanish here Saturday. Of the 29 contests played, Howard has won 14, Lincoln 8 and 7 have resulted in stalemates. The contests have always been unusually close. This is attested by the fact that in only five of this long series of battles have more than two touchdowns been scored by either side. Each school has enjoyed rather one-sided victory, Howard having a 42-0 win in 1920 and a 32-0 win in 1926. They vanished in the wake of a powerful Morgan juggernaut which exploded and trampled and ground those dreams in the mud and rain-soaked sod of historic Armstrong Field under a 13-0 score as 4,000 fans, drenched by the continuous downpour of rain, watched the proceedings. Lincoln ran over the Bisons in 1924 in Washington at Griffith Stadium to the tune of 31-0. In color, length of history and keenness of competition this series unquestionably closely rivals the Yale-Harvard, Lafayette-Lehigh or Penn-Cornell series. While the 4,000 drenched umbrellas, forming a vari-colo of humanity, hundreds of others who had travelled from far and near to see the gridiron struggle watched the game from automobiles lined around the massive stadium. It started raining early Saturday morning and continued throughout the day, spoiling Hampton's Homecoming. SOUTH ATLANTIC CONFERENCE NEWS SOUTH ATLANTIC CONFERENCE NEWS While the fans shivered and braved the cold rain in the wind-swept stadium, twenty-two players, stalwart representatives of Morgan and Hampton schools, sloshed and splashed in a veritable sea of mud with the Bears of Coach Johnny Hurt gaining a decided advantage.

Old city rivals meet this weekend in the final football games, for the city and conference championship honors. Douglass and Vocational tied for third place, will meet in Baltimore on Friday to decide in a battle that is hard to done. Hampton backs stumbled and slipped over the muddy field like novice skaters on the Casino rinco and handled the pigskin as sloppy as the field, was they played on. On the other hand, Morgan played a safe and conservative game, taking no chances on fumbling and handling the oval despite its eel-like slippermess. The Bears were able to chalk up nine first downs to the Pirates' four Armstrong defeated Cardozo 18 to 0 and having won the conference championship, is set to play their best game of the season for city series honors. On the Dunbar team there are a lot of boys who should be good football players, but sometimes they are not. That is because they have not had a great deal of experience, but Coach Pinderhughes would not be surprised if they should turn in their best performance for the Armstrong-Dunbar game. The Hampton team was a victim of fate. Having been drilled with a series of tricky and deceptive running plays throughout the season, the Pirates were never able The Tribune.

D, the bronzed competitor has y. There was a time when dock, Ted Meredith, Frank of the legitimate presence of Lanky Jones, Pinky Clarke, Cutie Brown, Jack Spencer and Rap Wheatley might well have held its own against the same class of white competition. And there have been some teams at Howard and Lincoln Universities which would not have thrown disgrace on a group seeking equality in the sport. IN TRACK AND FIELD, the bronzed competitor has by no means fared half badly. There was a time when talk was all of Charlie Paddock, Ted Meredith, Frank Wykoff, George Simpson and a host of others. These men occupied the limelight during their heyday as sprinters and hurdlers par excellent. And, make no mistake about it, they deserved all the homage done them. They were king-pins in their respective lines and days. But along came Howard Drew to shatter the dreams of the white man's unchallenged leadership in the short races. Following him came a succession of other Negro sprinting and jumping stars. Among these were Sol Butler, Ned Gourdin, DeHart Hubbard, Ed Gordon, Eddie Tolan, Ralph Metcalfe, Jesse Owens, Eulace Peacock, Ben Johnson, Cornelius Jonhson and again, I say, a host of others. And this record of achievement is not without colored representation in the longer and middle distance affairs. Take, as an example, the high regard with which Jimmy LuValle is held and Cecil Butler was held in the quarter-mile sprints. And are there among you those who have forgotten the sterling performances of Gus Moore and Phil Edwards in the half-mile treks? IN SOME OTHER BRANCHES, like major jockeying for the races, I am reassured that Isaac Murphy and Billy Walker and Jimmy Winkfield and Willie Simms and Monk Overton were "not bad." And Bob Considine, a downtown columnist, relates a conversation with an old-timer in the business who says, "If that black boy, Reid, could get the mounts, he'd be the best of all the present day jockeys." Then there's Louis Corbin of Bermuda, who has openly challenged Sam Parks, white, United States golf champion, to a 36-hole match for a $500 side bet. True enough, we have proved to be not so hot as yet in tennis, polo, swimming and some other of the many minor sports. For this, however, there may be some consolation to be found in the revelation that the only animal in the history of the race tracks to retire from the sport with an unbeaten record was Colin, heh, heh, — a BLACK horse.

Morgan Scores Early While fans cheered under a beating rain, Troupe, the triple-threat of the Morganites, kicked off to Ray Hopson of Hampton who ran the ball back 15 yards. The Pirates were unable to gain through the strong Morgan forward wall and Taylor was forced to kick Simpson. Bear safety man, received the oval on his 49-ward stripe and raced to the 39. Then the highly touted Morgan offensive began to click, resulting in the first touchdown of the game. Troupe gained five yards on a reverse and Bill Lampkins slipped through the Pirate line for the initial first down of the game on the Hampton 29. On the next play, Lampkins took the pieskin on a spinner and sloshed his w a y through center for 29 yards and a touchdown. Troune failed to convert, the first period ending several minutes later with Morgan on the long end of a 6-0 count. Troupe's Pass Scores The second quarter found the Pirates playing a defensive game. Troupe kicked from his 55-yard line. Hopson, the Pirate's dependable half-back, ran the ball back through the mud for 22 yards The Pirates kicked back on the next play hoping to sink the Bears deep in their territory, but Simpson, Morgan's ace onen field runner, grabbed the ball, shook off three would-be tacklers and ran back to Hampton's 45. After a series of line plays Troupe's pass was intercepted by Charlie Paige, fleet broken field runner who ran back 33 yards to place the ball on Morgan's 34 yard line. The Pirates make a strong effort to break through the Bear's forward wall but were forced to kick on downs. Simpson was downed in his tracks by Grier. After a set of tricky plays, Troupe beaved a delayed pass to Brown. Morgan left end, who had slipped unnoticed over near the left end zone. Brown stepped across the double strune unmolested. Another pass, Troupe to Brown, was good for the extra point. In the second half, the Hampton Pirates made desperate effort to score the kickoff, Edwards of Hampton slid through Morgan's line for ten yards on the muddy turf. Dismond and Hopson added 10 more yards to place the ball on Morgan's 19. The Pirates were not able to penetrate further through the strong Bear forward wall, the ball changing possession on downs. The fourth quarter was largely a punting duel between Troupe and Paige, the Pirate booter gaining a slight edge. Fighting desperately, Dismond and Taylor of Hampton tossed passes in every direction but none of the would-be Pirate receivers were able to cling to the muddy pigskin Early in the period, Paige fumbled Troupe's punt on the 6-yard line and Morgan recovered. However the Pirate wall held for three downs and the Bears finally lost possession of the oval as an aerial was grounded in the end zone. COLUMBIA, S.C. (ANP)—In a gruelling contest which thrilled the large crowd of fans assembled on the Allen Athletic Field here Saturady afternoon Allen defeated its ancient rival Voohees Institute, 4-0. The victory being attained through safeties due to the hard charging of Allen's forward wall. Pirates Threaten Two Safeties THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1935 At the Furlong Pole Last Minute Pass Enables Miner To Defeat Fayetteville, 15-12 Local Teacher College Eleven Snatches Game From Fire as Steve Wiggins Hurls Long Toss; Closing Rally Gives Maroon and Gold 15-12 Decision According to H. J. Bury, turf expert, writing in the November issue of Turf and Sport, the Bowie race track is 2.8 seconds slower for the six-furlongs than Arlington Park, the country's fastest track. By that is meant that horses running at the same notch in every effort will cover the three-quarters in 2.8 seconds less time than it would take them to cover the same distance on the Arlington course. Mr. Bury in his article offers a table which includes the 49 major racing strips in the country. Three tracks, Blue Bonnets, Dorval and Connaught Park, are rated slower than the Bowie strip. This does not mean, Br. Bury explains, that the racing becomes in inferior at the slower tracks. On the contrary, it would seem that it would become better. On a clear day at Bowie, horses who are looked upon as ideal mudders obviously are not as seriously handicapped racing against "fast track" animals as they would be on another track. It has a tendency to even matters, so to speak. Bowie, incidentally, is considered by the writer 1.6 seconds slower than Laurel and 8 seconds slower than Pimlico. Only Charlie Griggs, second-string rider for Matt Smart, trainer for the Admiral Cary T. Grayson and Breckenridge strings, of the colored riders on the grounds had a leg up on opening day at Bowie. Griggs rode Stage Whisper to a second behind Someone Else in the third race of Friday's card. ***** Four more handicaps are on the program for the Southern Maryland Agricultural Association fall session now in progress at Prince Georges plant. These are the Endurance Handicap, for 2-year-olds; the Thanksgiving Day Handicap, for 3-year-olds and upward; the Marlboro Claiming Stakes, for 3-year-olds and upward, and the Bryan and O'Hara Memorial, for 3-year-olds and upward. The two-year-old event is carded for this Saturday and has a purse of $2,500 added, attached. It is a one-mile and seventy-yard fixture. The Thanksgiving is set for Turkey Day, and calls for FAYETTEVILLE, N.C.—A long, daring pass, thrown in desperation as a grey dusk settled over the gridiron and covered wandering hopes, sailed into the arms of Limpkins today and brought the Miner Teachers' College eleven of Washington, D.C., a 15-12 intersectional victory over the Fayetteville State Normal School, here last Saturday. Trailing the State team by two touchdowns at the beginning of the second half and with all the fight a Martin-coached team has ever shown the Miner team began working hard. Midway the third period they shoved over their first touchdown. State immediately began fighting back and for the rest of the period the battle was a seesaw affair in mid-fie'd. Wiggins's Pass Scores A long punt that was downed on the State one-yard line put the locals in a deep hole. Bryant elected to punt and was rushed by the Miner forwards and on the attempted run out, he was downed for a safety. With three minutes left to play, State kicked to Miner's forty-five yard line. Three plays brought the ball to the State 30-yard line and after three unsuccessful attempts to open the State line, Wiggins dropped back and passed to his left end for the deciding score. Carolina Aggies Swamp St. Augustine GREENSBORO, N.C. (ANP) Clicking in typical "Breaux style" the North Carolina Aggies settled the North Carolina championship here Saturday afternoon, by running rough-shod over St. Augustine to the tune 33-0. At no time was the result of the game problematical as the Aggies were superior in every department of the game. Apply for reservations to 1711 Arctic Avenue, Atlantic City, N.J. Special rail and bus fares. Low hotel rates for those attending week-end social and entertainment features. $2,500 added money. This is a mile and one-sixteenth affair. The Mariborlo is a mile and a half race for $2,000, added. And the closing day event, the Bryan at J O'Hara, is a $5,000, added, fixture. This will be put on November 30, and will offer one-mile and three-sixteenth of racing. Although Griggs was alone as the Negro rider on the inaugural day program at Bowie little Ray Booker more than made up for his loss of mounts on opening day when he did get into the saddle, Saturday. The little Bel Air, Md., lad who startled the riding colony with sensational booting around the half-mile ovals the past year and a half, shared riding honors for the day with Bobby Merritt, white. Like Merritt, Booker had two winners, neither one of which was the standout that either Cycle or Only One was for Merritt. Booker paid off with Master Lad at $8, and with Our Ship at $26.60. *** With the approach of the end of fall racing in Maryland, the Negro riders are making plans for the coming winter season. Clarence Reid, the only full-fledged jockey in the group, has already signed to ride in California during the Bay Meadows and Santa Anita meetings. Charlie Griggs will ship to Charles Town at the close of the current session at Bowie Johnny Brooks will also pack his sack and head for the half-mile ovals. Ray Booker, whose brother, J. R. Booker, handles the booking, is not fully decided on his winter riding. He may, it is intimated, head for the West, coast for free-lance riding instead of returning to the smaller tracks in the vicinity. These Bear Watching These Bear Watching The Chilhowee gelling, PEN-CADER, owned by Mrs. M. M. Bond, will earn brackets before the Bowie meeting is over. That's not guessing, PICCOLO, the 2-year-old from the C. V. Whitney barn, is going to repeat its Pimlico win when the price is right. Watch out whenever Albert Robertson steps into the saddle. And ARAB always was a good fall horse.

MEETING OF HAMPTON, UNION Thanksgiving Day Clash to Decide Probable Runner-up in CIAA Grid Race NEW YORK.—In a traditional game which dates back to the earliest days of Negro football, Hampton and Union University of Richmond, Va., play the most important game of the C.I.A.A season Thanksgiving Day here at the Polo Grounds. Although neither team is claiming the championship of the C.I.A.A., the championship of Virginia is at stake when these two outfits battle it out on the historic Polo Grounds. Whether or not Hampton gains second place in the association will also be determined. Systems Well Known The game will be a contest between teams coached by two of the best known coaches in the C.I.A.A. Seasoned veterans, each knows his business, although they represent entirely different schools of football. Hucles, the younger of the two is known to turn out capable teams, and so well grounded are his men in the fundamentals of football, they are eagerly sought as coaches for other schools in the South. His opponent, Gideon Smith, likewise knows football and believes in the straight, solid game, ignoring all of the fancy frills and foibles which each year find their way into football. Hampton teams are always strong, both in the line and in the backfield, knowing their football as they should know it. And because of this, there will be two evenly matched teams on the green at the Polo Grounds, Thursday. D.C. CASE SEASON OPENS TOMORROW D.C. CASE SEASON OPENS TOMORROW Saturday Double-header to Feature Tech Night and YWCA Floor Teams Local basketball will make its debut on the court of the Phyllis Wheatley Young Women's Christian Association, when the male and female teams of the Armstrong Night High School engage two opponents. In the opening game the reformed Y.W.C.A. quintet will take on the girls' team of O Street. With both teams pretty much on a par, this initial clash will most likely provide thrills. In the second encounter, Coach James O Williams's Armstrongers will take on a strong Don Juan outfit, newcomers to District cage circles. The Williams coached aggregation returns to the wars after a successful 1934 campaign. Their inaugural engagement last week resulted in a victory.

TWO NEW SCHOOL NAMED FOR J. F. BUNDY Education Board Accepts Name of Former Member And Howard Secretary Recommendations of the schoolnaming committee of the Board of Education for the naming of the city's newest colored school were approved at the regular meeting of the board. Wednesday afternoon at the Franklin Administration Building. The building will be named the James F. Bundy School in honor of the late educator of that name, who died December 14, 1914. It is being constructed on the site between Fourth and Fifth Streets, on O. Northwest where formerly the old John F. Cook School stood. A suggestion by Attorney Benjamin L. Gaskins that the school be named after W. S. Montgomery was turned down because of the previous presence of a Montgomery School here. Aside from being a distinguished lawyer of approximately two decades ago, Mr. Bundy was at one time a member of the Board of Education and a secretary of the Howard University School of Law for 25 years. He served in the former capacity for six years. Organizations and persons recommending this name for the school were the East Central Civic JARVIS Association, the Phyllis Wheatley YWCA, Miss Nennie Burroughs, the Rev. J. L. S. Holloman and Mrs. Victoria Neal. Born in Virginia The late James F. Bundy, like so many distinguished colored men of the last generation was born in Virginia in 1862, and bore the marks of the effects of impressions in childhood and youth made by that great Civil strife of the time. He was educated at Oberlin College and Howard University. He was appointed to the Board of Trustees of the Public School of the District, in 1900, and only went out of office in the reorganization of that body in the new Organic Act of 1906. During his service on the Board, he opened the way for Howard graduates to places in the local system. Before that time those positions were held only by graduates of Harvard, Amherst, Yale, Brown, Cornell and the like. Mr. Bundy is survived by his widow, Mrs. Delina Bundy and a daughter, Miss Della Bundy, the well-known music teacher who still live at the home at 403 O Street, Northwest. PWA PROBE (Continued from Page 1) per cent. According to Smith, Negroes are 4.7 per cent of the general population of New York City. 8.6 per cent of the administrative staff of relief, an d14.5 per cent of the home relief population. No Discrimination In a press conference, Administrator Ridder issued the following statement: "I have reasons to believe that there has been some discrimination practiced against Negroes. It may not be very bitter, but it is discrimination just the same. I want to wipe that discrimination out, and I want to do something that is even more important—I want to convince the Negroes that, as far as I am concerned and as far as our activities here are concerned, there is no discrimination against them. As it is they should know there is no discrimination." Has Improved A report of Smith's findings indicate a definite improvement of conditions under the administration of Ridder, who is successor to General Hugh S. Johnson, as Works Progress Administrator for New York City.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1935 DR. FEREBEE (Continued from page 9) formation. Some of the mothers did not know their children's names. Each child's arm was scrubbed and prepared by four different people before he was inoculated, as it was not known when he had a bath last. The daily attendance at the clinic was 150-240 children; total attendance, 2,667 children, 5,000 doses of inoculation were given; 2,040 toxoids for diptheria and 2,960 for small pox—some of which were retakes. Only 107 of these children had ever been vaccinated before. It was necessary to give 215 children who were very ill physical examinations. However, there was no medicine or money available, and no clinics to which the children might be sent after the examination had ferreted out the trouble. In fact the only answer to sickness among Negroes in the South seems to be death. Poor Housing Conditions The whole country side seemed depressed and had an air of general neglect and destination. There were no beautiful ancestral homes, no gardens, or fruit trees. The ground was parched and burnt from lack of rain and dust covered everything. Even the cows were dry and could not give milk. The only beautiful thing was the cotton fields—miles of pink, white and purple blooms. The Negroes lived mostly in two room dilapidated shacks with no windows. In one such shack, it was found that 15 people were living. The people were slow and dull—a saddened and defeated lot. The children were old and depressed. Play was a lost art. Some of the children were deformed, and most of them diseased. Wages Stolen The old "Grannies" of the plantations had horrible tales to tell. According to their stories, the tenant farmers plant all the cotton, but never receive a cent of wages. The money is supposed to go into a commissary against which the farmer can draw what he needs. But about the only things that can be obtained from the Commisary was flour meal, salt, sugar and fat back and grits. At the end of the year, the Negroes found that they usually owed the system. One old granny said that on a large plantation of 800 Negroes, only five had received wages one year; one of these was a boy who was paid $1.90. Last year was the best year for cotton in a long time and the government bought a large quantity and required a list of the people who had produced it. The checks for this actually came, and the farmers were called in and signed their X's, but they never received the money, for they were told that they had simply signed a receipt showing they produced the cotton. Watch School Teachers Tenant farmers can never move without the consent of the owner and if they do cannot take anything with them. The rural schools are watched. A teacher can teach a child carpentry, but cannot teach him how to make a receipt or how to figure out his share of the produce. If a Negro displeases an owner he does no punish, but goes to the "Big Bully" and induces him to pick a fight with the guilty Negro, in which the latter is usually shot down. All of the women have from eight to fifteen children. They are encouraged to have large families to produce future workers for the plantation. The workers are intensely ignor-ut, and live by superstition. Practically all of the schools were erected by Rosenwald but there has been no upkeep, and they are dilapidated and falling to pieces. There is no drinking water even on the ground around the school. The children have to bring their water in bottles. Teachers Poorly Paid Teachers Poorly Paid In 1930 there were 502,000 Negro children of school age in Mississippi. 299,000 were not in school because there were no schools to which they might go. There are 02 teachers in the whole county, twenty-one of these have college degrees; 17 have two years of college; 8 have one year of college; 51 finished high school, and 91 never went to high school. The average rural salary for Negro teachers is $20 a month. Negro high school teachers receive $20 a month, and after three years might receive $22; white teachers on the other hand receive $35 a month with a $1 monthly increase. There is only one Negro supervisor in the State. From this project in Mississippi, two things were learned: 1. That the masses of Negroes are fearfully in need of help because of physical and mental handicaps and domination by the plantation owners. 2. That the educated Negroes must reach down by actual contact and help these Negroes of the lower classes. This is the only way that direct and sure relief can be brought about. They must direct their own projects and spend their own money, and not leave it to any other officials. School Lunches Last year, the government established Federal school lunch projects, with the intent that lunches would be prepared and served to the Negro children by Negro women, but the State of Mississippi declared that it had no Negro women capable of taking part in this project, in spite of the fact that they have eaten the food cooked by these same Negro women all their lives. The educated Negro must permit the ruling whites to see and know Negroes who are capable and efficiently trained and willing to do something about the situation. The committee found a great deal of surprise that Negroes of intellect were willing to give a summer of pleasure and try to help these people whom the plantation owners look upon as chattels. Educated Negroes must do the job themselves. "It is recommended that there should be a participation of Negro leaders in some project for the masses of Negroes; and that some scholarship be given for Negro students to study Negro conditions of health and economy in the South. We need no foreign missionaries as long as we have our own Negro problem in the South," Dr. Ferebee concluded. SHELL (Continued from Page 1) Motion to set aside the verdict of the Spotsylvania County Circuit Court reached on May 14 was not made until "after the first Monday in June." The two prisoners are now confined in the death house of the State Penitentiary where they have been for several months during the legal attempts to save them from the electric chair. To Set New Date Judge Frederick W. Coleman who presided at the first trial will fix a new date for their execution as soon as he is officially notified of the final action by the Virginia Court of Appeals. Whether the appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court will be granted, thereby giving another extension for the alleged murderers, was not known in local legal circles. The last date set for the execution of Shell and Jackson was September 27, but the penalty was postponed when the Virginia Supreme Court granted a writ of error on September 19. The court heard arguments and received briefs on October 11 from E. A. Norrell, counsel for the pair, and Major Edwin H. Gibson, assistant Attorney General Convicted in May The murder of Mr. and Mrs. Coleman occurred at their Spotylvania county home on the night of April 3. Shell and Jackson were tried and convicted by a Spotylvania county jury on May 14 and Judge Coleman set June 21 as the date for them in the electric chair. Given Three Reprieves Governor Perry granted three reprieves while Norrell was undertaking to secure a new trial on 14 assignments of error, listing what he contended were irregularities in the trial, the successive dates fixed by the Governor being July 26, August 30 and September 27. On July 11, Norrell applied to Judge Coleman for a new trial but the judge refused to entertain the motion as the case had passed beyond his jurisdiction. He advised Norrell at the time that any such motion should have been made during the term of court in which the Negroes were tried. Norrell then applied to the Supreme Court of Appeals which after reviewing the evidence and the briefs of council, dismissed the plea, closing the door to further steps in a Virginia court to save the condemned men. "BUS" LEE (Continued from Page 1) well known in local social circles, not a heart making him explain set about making him explain. She complained to police and Mr. Lee was hailed into the United States branch of Police Court and arraigned on a charge of bigamy. He was ordered held for the action of the grand jury in bond of $1,000. Divorce Invalid It developed that Lee married his first wife on September 22, 1932 in Maryland. Little less than three years later, June 10, 1935, the young husband is said to have married the former Miss Vashti Norwood also of this city. When questioned as to the legality of this second marriage, Lee asserted that he had divorced his first wife while in Los Angeles, Cal. This supposed decree was not final, it was observed, because Mrs. Lee No. 1, refused to sign the papers necessary for its legitimacy. No Negroes Appointed In Memphis Postoffice MEMPHIS, Tenn. (By Percy R. Hines for ANP)—Executives of the Memphis branch of the National Alliance of Postal Employees reported Saturday that of 19 temporary employees recently appointed to the local post office, none are colored, a situation unusual in the affairs of the Memphis post office, in view of the fact that Negroes have always made up a substantial percentage of new employees hired here. Veteran employees believe that if such a policy continues, there will be few Negroes in the government service a few years hence, in view of the fact that retirement, deaths and other causes are gradually diminishing our number. The National Alliance of Postal Employees is encouraging Negro youth to take advantage of every opportunity available to apply for positions in other branches of the government in addition to those of the post office department.

JOHN S. REECE SERVICE STATION, O ST. b etween 7th and 8th STS., N.W. CHICAGO (ANP)—The case involving Jack Blackburn and John Bowman in a gun battle alleged to have been staged by the two men recently in which Enoch Houser, 69, was fatally wounded and Lucy Cannon, nine-year-old girl was seriously injured, was reopened here Tuesday and again became the "topic of the town" when Blackburn and Bowman were charged in felony court with assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill. The case was continued Tuesday morning upon a motion by Assistant States Attorney Charles S. Dougherty in order that a more thorough investigation might be made. According to reports evidence had been uncovered purporting to show that the case "had been fixed." Murder Charge The men originally were bound over on the assault charge and released on bonds of $1,000. The charge has now been changed to murder although Houser died from the wounds received when caught in the cross fire during the gun battle. Blackburn and Bowman were exonerated at a coroner's inquest held by Deputy Coroner Benjamin A. Grant, its findings leaving Houser a victim of the proverbial "unknown parties." Records of the inquest have been demanded by the State's Attorney's office. Eleven police assigned to various phases of the case are reported to be involved in the investigation which was instituted when Sheridan A. Bruseaux, private detective on the case placed his findings before the States Attorney and the Crime Commission. Report Civil Suit Immediately following the hearing Tuesday morning, J. C. Cannon father of the little girl who is said to have been permanently disabled from the injury sustained in the shooting, announced that he would file suit for $100,000 against Blackburn, Bowman, William Parnell and Dan Ellis and all others implicated in the shooting and that proceedings would begin immediately. Further developments have revealed that Mrs. Cannon, mother of the little girl was an eye-witness to the altercation. The Cannons live directly in front of the Bowman residence where the shooting was staged and she was sitting in her window during the affair. Speaking to The Associated Negro Press Monday afternoon Mrs. Cannon, concerning the claim that Blackburn was unarmed stated: "I saw the shooting. I know WASHINGTON TRIBUNE Published Tuesday and Friday of Each Week Subscription Rates (By Mail, Including Postage) National Edition that not only was Mr. Blackburn armed and participated in the shooting but that three men who returned to the Bowman home with him were armed and shot at Mr. Bowman. "As I was loaning out my window watching for Lucy I saw four men come up to the house directly in front of mine and all of them had revolvers in their hands and began firing at Mr. Bowman who was coming out of his house. He ran behind an automobile and using that as a shield returned the fire. "I saw Mr. Houser who was walking down the street fall to the street and before I could make any outcry I saw my own little girl shot down. I testified as to this at the inquest so I do not know just how it could be said that either of the men were unarmed or why the police could not find any weapon." Became Confused It was stated that Mrs. Cannon became confused at the inquest when she was shown a statement she had made to the police and her testimony was discredited. Brusseaux added that he had turned over to the States Attorney and the Crime Commission photographic evidence as to the devastating fire during the gun battle, including photographs of the front of the house and bullet riddled automobile. Interest in the shooting which died down immediately after the coroner's jury exonerated Blackburn and Bowman has been revived and again rumors of "fixing" as well as of gentle attempts at a shakedown, are in the air. According to Brusseaux, "the investigation has just started. We are going to fight this thing to a finish. I have been employed by the Cannon family and I shall certainly work to the best interests of my clients." NOrth 9121 BROWN'S "STANDARD" ESSO DEALER SERVICE CENTER 2101 GEORGIA AVE., N. W. The investigation is being made by Assistant States Attorney Charles Dougherty, who has also declared that every bit of evidence will be sifted and if a conviction is possible it will be secured and the proper punishment imposed. He is being assisted in the investigation by Attorney Joseph E. Clayton, who formerly represented the Housers. Housers Don't Approve Everett Houser, son of the slain man stated that the investigation by Clayton and Brusseaux was without the sanction of the Houser family and that those who had reopened the "terrible affair" were working on their own. When the defendants were exonerated at the inquest as far as their family was concerned the matter was closed he said and for that reason Mr. Houser did not seek to have the men rearrested. Mr Houser denied that there had been any financial settlement. The bullet striking the Cannon child entered one hip passed through a vital organ and emerged from her body at the other hip. Her parents fear she is permanently injured.

At the morning session on Tues- day, alter devotional exercises by the Rev. A. F. Elmes, pastor of People’; Congregational Church, Washington, the Rev. Richard H. Bowling, . of the First Baptist Church, Norfolk, Va., spoke on the subjec; “We Are Sons of the Prophets.” Beginning with the ancient and moving forward to the present, he stated that we are heirs to all that the prophets fought for and dreanied of, even though they died before they could realize their dream. Said he: “In the lives of the prophets, whether religious, social or economic, we are chal- lenged to do as much for our generation as they did for theirs.” Discusses War Dr. Francis P. Miller, chairman of the World's Student Christian Federation, Fairfax, Va., followed Mr. Bowling, taking as his theme “Christian Leadership and World Problems,” declaring that the present war situation in the world today is due largely to the fact that nations like Japan, Germany and Italy do not have sufficient resources to make their countries self-sufficient. These countries he called the “have-nots,” and contrasted them with England, the United Seater and France, which he called the “haves,” or countries that are rel- atively self-sufficient. Said he: “The ‘have’ countries want peace, but the ‘have-nots’ want war in order to take enough to make them self-sufficient; hence, Janan mn Manchuria and Italy in Ethi- opia. Just.a matter of time and Germany will strike.” Work for Christians In the afternoon Dr. Miller en- deavored to show that the role of the Christian leader is in such a world, He stressed the point that the church and Christian leaders must declare their allegiance to the city of God which is now, as always, pronouncing judgment on the city of man. He continued with the idea that if the church is going to radically change this existing order, it has to be a dy- namic model of a new society— an incubating model of a new so- ciety. He further stated that because all human life is relative, and be- cause all human life stands in the judgment of God, all human life deserves the divine critique, and that, therefore. one of the main funetions of Christian leadershin is to provide the Christian critique AALT 4.

SAY CHURCH UNITY WOULD GIVE MORE POWER TO NEGROES | PHILADELPHIA, Pa. — Fears that the proposed merger of ihe Methodist Episcopal Church, the Methodist Episcopal Church South and the Methodist Protestant Church may result in segregation of white and Negro members of the Methodist Church, as the new organization would be known, were unfounded, according to the Rev. W, A’ C, "Hughes. The Rev Mr. Hughes who is in charge of the work among Negroes for the Board of Home Missions and the Chureh Extension of the Methodist Episeapal Church ex- pressed the opinion while attending a meeting here this week. He also declared the proposed merger would give the Negro more power than he kas hitherto enjoyed and equality in the church. Under the proposed merger of the three groups, six jurisdictional conferences are to be created, five of them geographical and the other to be made up of Negro churches. Each conference will select its own bishons, the number being deter- mined by the General Conference, feos ge aed ‘The Most High dwelleth not in temples. made with hands, —Acts WRIGLEY'S .

The officers testified that they were on duty near the north end of the Highway Bridge when the car sved past them, cireted around and started back across the bridge. It failed to make a turn near the Vir- gnia end and went up an embank- ment, coasted back, and then reeled on, with the occupants running.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1935 The Public Library In keepng with the attitude of a certain element of the population, its Public Librarian, Mr. Bowerman, declares that "There shall be no colored persons in that force as librarian as long as he is its head." Of course, there is no very good reason why he should be its head, for this country has many splendid city librarians, and as colored people pay taxes in Washington, they contribute something, however little, to Mr. Bowerman's salary, living and prestige. We have caused change in heads of city departments before now. Provisions have been made for many extensions of the service of the Public Library, and where we inhabit certain areas, that service reaches our people. But aside, the neighborhood segregation, which operates here, deprives us of certain privileges. Of course the American idea is that Government should act just where the people, by no act of their own, are weak, but here in Washington public privileges, like kissing, go by favor, and he gets more who has most. Out in the far-Northeast, where 3,000 colored families live, in an attempt to make decent conditions for themselves and the city, they are forced to struggle like the white people, in the Southeast, for every little advantage. If a branch colored library is established, certainly it ought to be in the far-Northeast, where the people and children are more than six miles from the central library. They need it, just as they need their own clinics and recreation centers, for civic benefits, as well as for their own development. It is time for our people to realize that they are denied opportunities of all kinds, and then blamed for not being equal in knowledge, information and skill with their white brothers. Well, we have a voice and we can raise it in protest, and we begin here and now. If they continue to regard us a "child race," we can at least announce our discomfort by crying out loud. Those quintuplets are now entering the films, and there's soon going to be an awful tangle, when they start getting married and divorced. Now Santa Claus should bring a set of building blocks for Uncle Sam. The most remarkable thing about this business come-back is that it's done without slogans. With Will Rogers gone, we Americans start right in again taking politics too seriously. (Reprinted from Tuesday's Tribune) Demands of the Age In human nature there are deep-seated reasons why shorter hours, music, recreation and community relations must be provided, if our social order is to be preserved and we ourselves are to survive. The intensity of modern life demand a kind of social shell by which individuals protect themselves against all but the shocks of their own affairs in order to preserve themselves from distraction. These demands press hard upon the colored people because of their sociability. They mistake bruskness for "high-hatting." They are classed as inefficient in the modern business world because they move, talk and act as if still living in a rural situation in horse-and-buggy days. To let down from the top speed set by modern machine civilization, with its demands upon a nervous system not yet tuned to the terrific pace, drink, gambling and dissipation or fast autodriving afford quick seeming relief. Too prolonged a strain and the necessary absence of openness of sympathy in the social relations of our congested living places prove demoralizing to sensitive natures, both in their personal and domestic affairs. This explains so many divorces. Nervousness and unconventional conduct, even an increase in crime, may be traced to such sources. Business and professional groups feel this strain more than plain-living, hard-working people because of the multiplication of the points of contact through accelerated communication and the mad race for efficiency. Few have time and soon lose enjoyment for mere social exchanges. Necessary politeness becomes formal, hurried, mechanical; even the smile and voice. As we become more democratic, we likewise become less sociable. We are victims of the age. Family wealth starts back somewhere with a low person who goes after money hard keeps it long, and stays at it until he bumps into the embalmer. Education For Character By KELLY MILLER President Eliot has stated that this is the first generation in the history of the human race which is being educated without religion. The world awaits the results. Until now, the world relied upon religious dogma as the chief means of imparting morality. I once heard President Patton, of Howard University, say that laxity in theology is always followed by laxity in morality. Our educationalists have all but perfected an intellectual pedagogy without religious incentive, at the expense of a moral pedagogy based upon the promptings of the soul. We educate the head and hands, but leave to haphazzard and chance the education of the heart. Some wag of a wit once said that Charles Darwin had knocked hell out of religion. This is but a blunt and profane way of expressing a significant and serious truth. William Jennings Bryan, the peerless apostle of the common man, devoted his last days to combatting the doctrine of evolution because it cut the nerve of religion. He could not bring himself to the reconciliation of the ages of rocks and the Rock of Ages. No Einstein has yet arisen in the philosophic world who can simplify and reconcile science and religion and fuse them into a pedagogical formula which would grip the mind and imagination of the average youth of our day and generation. I once wrote an essay for one of our educational journals entitled "Moral Pedagogy" in which I deplored the fact that we were unable to find a secular substitute for sacred lore as a means of imparting morality and building up character in youth. EDUCATION AND CHARACTER GETTING FARTHER APART The gap between education and character is growing deeper and wider as the doctrine of evolution has made all but universal headway. It is neeless to attempt to combat the doctrine of evolution which forced itself upon us with all but axiomatic conviction. But the chief task devolves upon our educationalists, to find a moral pedagogy which can be maintained in harmony with the teachings of Darwin. Educational discussion today is concerned chiefly with secular curricula with the sacred element left out entirely or handled only with the little finger of the left hand. And yet the age-old admonition contains an everlasting fact and present truth: "keep they heart with all diligence for out of it are the issues of life." We are appalled at the plain facts of observation. Education and crime grow apace. Theft, graft, racketeering, lynching, burglary, kidnapping and gansterdom outrun our boastful educational statistics. We have lost the value of religious discipline but have gained nothing to take its place. Our schools are not only secular, but Pagan and Godless. The Roman Catholic Church with logical consistency, cries aloud against our Godless schools which threaten the foundation of civilization. The Mother Church still tries to safeguard the educational development of her own adherents by throwing around them the proper religious influence. But this is almost impossible in the midst of a nonreligious-minded age. There was more joy over one sinner who professed repentance than over ninety-nine students who got their lessons well. These devoted apostles of humanity have done their work and gone to their reward. They have been succeeded by secular educators with more competent teaching and better facilities for imparting the letter; but, alas, they lack the secret and method of enkindling the spirit. Without further developing this theme as long general lines, let me hasten to apply the ill effect of a Godless education upon the mind of Negro youth. The Negro is basically a religious folk, motivated chiefly by a deep-seated spiritual emotion. The Northern missionaries who founded our schools and colleges, hypotheticated the development of the Negro upon this basis. They relied upon the spiritual dynamic as the chief agency of Negro uplift. With this end in view, they brought to him the Bible in their right hand and the spelling book in their left. They sought to make education the handmaid of religion. In the earlier days of Howard, Fisk. Atlanta and Lincoln Universities the faculty would adjourn school for a week to conduct a revival of religion. FOREFATHERS WERE PARTIAL TO FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES After fifty years of wide and careful observation, I am convinced that the early educators did more to plant in the Negro the fundamental principles of character and to lay an enduring basis upon which the future of the race can be safely and securely built than their present day successors whose chief reliance is upon an adequate and efficient secular pedagogy. While this shift from sacred to secular interests in education has played havoc with the minds of American youth in general, it has played double havoc with ambitious Negro youth, who have forsaken things that look to Godward and are engrossed in things which are of the earth earthy. When a boy in South Carolina I used to hear the white people say if you want anything run into the ground, let the Negro get hold of it. Our college youth have gotten hold of a smattering of science and philosophy which has gone to the head and intoxicated the brain. Not being able to appraise and appreciate the true value and function of science and religion, they have gone to the extreme of agnosticism and irreverence. Langston Hughes in his "Good-bye Christ" has more or less accurately expressed the mind of the average Negro intelligentsia: "A little learning is a dangerous thing: Drink deep or taste not the Pyerian spring." A race which is just entering into the equation of civilization for the first time, without the background or ballast of sobering experience, is apt to be swept off its feet and carried away with every new fad and "ism" which promises to upset ancient or existing order and reconstruct the world anew. The educators of Negre youth today are confronted with the most momentus problem in the history of the upward struggle of the race—how to develop in youth placed in their charge, the fundamental character which will enable them to endure and withstand the stress and strain of an arrogant and intolerant civilization. The evil effect of the lack of moral education is lamentably manifesting itself in the conduct of graduates from our schools and colleges. I once heard the President of Howard University, the premier institution of higher Negro learning, say that not a single graduate of this institution could be found in jail or the penitentiary. But, alas, too sad to relate this can no longer be said either of this institution nor any other devoted to the higher education of Negro youth. Here in Washington we have the largest number of Negroes bearing collegiate and professional degrees to be found anywhere in the world. Our court calendars are crowded and our prisons are well familiar with inmates bearing insignia of higher learning. The same thing is true, in a greater or less degree, in all parts of the country. Negro doctors are too frequently accused and convicted of malpractice. Negro lawyers too often abuse their trust. The Local Street Car Situation (Continued from Page 1) cars, in which they were not only tossed from side to side, but forced to swing from dirty hand straps, actually NEGRO DAY Another Ex Complex in Herbert "leader" of the Department CAN WE NOT REPORT FAVGRABLY FOR OURSELVES The tu quoque argument that educated whites are similarly accused is no sufficient rejoinder. The number of educated Negro convicts is sadly out of proportion to the whites in the same category. Allowance must be made for the economic stress and strain which they have not the character to resist. Let me hasten to say that I make no wholesale condemnation. The vast majority of Negroes with higher education are upright and well behaved citizens; but the majority is not sufficient. A few rotten apples will give an evil reputation to the whole barrel. Harvard University must have fifty thousand graduates in the United States. It is so seldom that a single one of them is lodged in prison that when it happens it becomes a matter of universal report and comment. Why not the same be said of graduates from Negro colleges and universities? Our colleges and universities must find some method of imbuing their students with the fundamental principles of character, or else (Reprinted from Tuesday's Tribune) The Importance of Factual Data Specialist, Negro Statistics, Department of Commerce, Bureau of the Census, Washington, D.C. STATISTICAL RECORDS NECESSARY FOR INTELLIGENT PLANNING (Delivered in Philadelphia, September 26, 1935) It is eminently fitting that we should commemorate with song and speech the seventy-second anniversary of our emancipation. It is equally fitting for us to take stock or an inventory of our progress, of the assets and liabilities we have accumulated during the 72 years of our freedom. As a representative of the Bureau of the Census, I have been designated by the director, William L. Austin, to assure you that the bureau will be pleased to supply you with any available census statistical data that may assist you in making plans for the social progress and economic security of our racial group. The Bureau of the Census, the greatest statistical organization in the world, is constantly at work, year in and year out, keeping a record of the national position and furnishing factual foundations for future guidance, and its activities are of vital importance to the well-being of every individual in the nation. The great emancipator, Abraham Lincoln, once said, "If we could first know where we are and whither we are tending, we could better tell what to do and how to do it." It is the function of the Bureau of the Census to show where we are tending by conducting periodical statistical surveys by censuses. Government, industry, commerce, transportation, communications, health, education and many other phases of collective life are directly affected by the information assembled and disseminated and while wage earners, small merchants, farmers, home-makers and others may have no direct need for census statistics, nevertheless they share largely, if indirectly, quite unknown to themselves, in these benefits. Only recently the Bureau of the Census published a volume relating to the Negro population of the United States, in which are statistics supplementing those presented in a previous publication issued in 1918, covering the census periods from 1790 to 1915. Needs of the Race Specifically, plans are urgently needed for a greater participation of our wage-carners in the basic industries; for an increased ownership in farms; for strong building and loan associations; for the second mortgage financing of our urban homes, and for an increase in the number and a more efficient management of retail stores operated by Negro proprietors in the areas largely populated by Negroes. And on the social side, we particularly need a more accurate $ \mathrm{o_{f}} $ complete registration of Negro births which will automatically reduce the high mortality rate of our population and decrease life insurance rates. I shall now show you a statistical picture taken five years ago, of our Negro-operated retail stores. It was the first national inventory ever taken of our participation in the retail business of the nation. Race Business As shown by the 1930 census of American business, there were 25,701 retail stores operated in the United States by Negro proprietors whose aggregate sales amounted to $101,146,043, or an average of $3,935 per store, and the cost value of their stocks on hand at the end of the year amounted to $10,657,000. But let us now look at the sales side of the picture, based exclusively on the total Negro population of each state and city. It shows that the sales per capita of the Negro population for the United States amounted to $8.51 per year, or less than $1 per month. But in 12 states, all in the South, the sales per capita of Negro population in retail stores operated by Negro proprietors averaged only $5.42, or less than fifty cents per month. For the South as a whole it was $6.09; for the North, $16.74, and for the West, $31.16. Looking at the returns for several industrial states in the North, we find that New York reported total sales of $18.63 per capita of its Negro population; New Jersey, $13.11. Pennsylvania, $15.12; Ohio, $14.26; Indiana, $18.05; Illonis, $19.66; Michigan, $22.53 and Missouri $14.30, while the Pacific Coast state of California reported $33.46. Taking the 15 cities having 50,000 or more Negro population, we find the following total sales per capita of Negro population: Detroit, $25; Chicago and Houston, $21 each; New Orleans, $18; Cleveland, Memphis and St. Louis, $16 each; Pittsburgh, $15; Philadelphia, $14; Atlanta, $13; Richmond, $12; Washington $11; New York, $10; Baltimore, $7 and Birmingham, $6. NEGRO DEMOCRATIC LEADER IN HARLEM Another Example of the Inferiority Complex in Some Colored People Herbert L. Bruce was elected "leader" of the 21st District by the Democratic County Committee. — acting on the will of the party members expressed in the last primary election. But this Negro leader had to be elected twice before the white opponent, Conklin, would concede the election. Conklin contested the first election to Tammany Hall and the Hall did an unusual thing: ordered a second election, to help the white man out, if possible, — sending up three Tammany agents to take charge of the second election to make sure that the poor defenseless white man not "cheated" again. But, believe it or not even after this second election, in which Bruce again got a substantial majority of the 500-odd votes, Conklin went down again to the Tammany Chief, James J. Dooling accompanied by 25 or 30 whites, who cannot get the idea of having a Negro leader, and asked that Tammany divide the 21st district and give 21 precincts in the white section to Conklin, and leave the other 21 in the section where more colored people live, to Bruce! And where does the colored brother's inferiority complex come into the picture? Well just you listen, — but I do not expect you to believe it, for I would not believe it myself if I did not know it, — nearly 50 Negroes went along with the 25 or 30 whites, "to lend color to the occasion" and to the effort to oust or curb the power of a twice-elected Negro leader, and to help persuade "Marse" Dooling not to subject white people to subordination to a Negro man. Conklin even had Negroes up front "to do the talking;" that the Negro elected "was not the man for leadership," — nothing more specific than that. And what did Dooling do? His patience broke, and he cussed, plain, straight, healthy cow-boy cussing, — which we could hardly improve on ourselves. He expressed himself to this effect: What do you people come down here squawking for again? We have rules to go by and an organization $t_0$ take care of, — and there is but one recognized leader in the 21st District, and his name is Herbert L. Bruce. Why Charley Conklin, blacket-blank it, you came down here after the first election, asking us to divide the district and give you the 15 "white" precincts, claiming that you had been unfairly beaten by the other forces. We refused to give you 15 precincts, then but ordered a new election, to help you out, and sent up three men to see it through. You were beaten again and now, blanket-blank, here you come with another delegation, asking that we violate all precedent and decency and give you half the district. And now, I am telling all of you by so-and-so, the 21st District has a regularly elected leader, Herbert L. Bruce. Negroes Wanted to Hide Some of the Negroes who had gone along with Conklin wanted to roll into a crack and hide, but since there were no holes in the floor, they actually had to sneak out by the same door by which they had entered. Even a white Tammany Chief knows better than to go too far in support of the superiority complex of the white race. One of these Negroes came back to Harlem and confessed: "I was never so humiliated in all my life. In he first place I did not know exactly what we were down there for, somebody came to my house early and said Mr. Conklin wanted his supporters to go down to the Hall, etc. etc," Which shows how easily colored people (some of them) can be blindfolded and lead by their white exploiters. The painful process of getting a Negro elected to the leadership ought to have won even his enemy Negroes to his side: Bebore the primaries, there were three Negroes running and one white man, Conklin, for the position, — which meant that the Negroes would eliminate each other and the white would get the place Some disinterested colored man called a meeting of selected colored citizens and the three candidates, and we tried frankly to get two to withdraw so that the third could be elected, — for the Negro Democratic vote of the district is about 10,000 and the white vote about 4,000, — but the whites had just about twenty times as many offices (measured in dollars) as had the Negroes of the district. We proposed that two withdraw, leaving the known strongest (Bruce) in the field. One consented, but the other decided to stay in and contest the prize with Bruce. That left a danger still. Do we not need more of this money for circulation within our own racial group, for the financing of our OWN social and economic problems? Similar conditions obtain in New York, Chicago, Baltimore, Washington and other large cities, and practically nothing worthwhile is being done to remedy the situation. Regardless of the low sales per capita of the Negro population throughout the United States, these small retail stores operated by Negro proprietors gave employment to 40,804 Negro men, women, boys and girls, including the 28,243 proprietors and firm members not on the pay-roll, which amounted to $8,528,306 for the business year. The question now arises: do these retail stores constitute an asset or a liability to the race; and if they The Local Street Car Situation (Continued from Page 1) cars, in which they were not only tossed from side to side, but forced to swing from dirty hand straps, actually paying a dime to ride over the shortest distance of any car route in any first class city. One car, now numbered "50." that must be left over from the old trolley days, when it was number "1." still packs its scores into narrow seats and aisles. Slowly, colored neighborhoods and poorer people, in general, have been separated from others by distinctly inferior service on the street cars, despite the fact that the poorer people supply the bulk of the riders and revenue for the corporation. The LeDroit Park tracks were torn up post-haste and a bus line substituted with decrepit motors and an unkept schedule. Route changes were made so as to accommodate the Chevy Chase shoppers, by passing them directly down Eleventh Street, when the cars happen by chance to make the turn, despite the fact that most of the people in that section, except their servants use automobiles. One-man cars were introduced on the Rock Creek Bridge route, which are packed to suffocation from New Jersey Avenue to Eighteenth and Vernon Streets, and the leatherette seats are filthy, to the eye and hands, in spite of a health campaign. Brightwood and Silver Spring residents are rushed directly down Seventh Street and poor old Ninth Street is left to die of neglect. The direct result of all the checking of passengers that has been going on seems to have been to bring about a segregation of white from colored passengers, without any warrant in law or reason, except helplessness of passengers and profit for the corporation. The dollar weekly pass was merely a bait. The company may collect $75,000 by Monday morning, then spend $60,-000 for operation and net itself $15,000 a week or $880,-000 per year, for fat dividends. No wonder the bid of $600 a share was made for its stock upon mere rumor of a sale. Taxation may cure that, and Congress may learn something as it did in the rent hearings. It might be that a change in the office of the corporation counsel would see some improvement, as did the change in the health office. Meanwhile, tell your trous to the Tribune, keep a record of days and dates, time lost and time taken to make trips, and read the Tribune for further directions. The buying power of Washington street car riders has been revealed by that very bid for a share of stock in the local street car lines. The street car riders actually hold that power. They demand better accommodations and service. "SIMPSON'S QUIPS" By JOSEPHUS SIMPSON (EOR ANP) If American Negroes should refuse to buy from enterprises which refuse to grant them the same elementary courtesies and services granted others, we would soon see the end of segregation and discrimination in America. At the same time, business enterprises operated by Negroes would multiply like flies and bloom with success like the proverbial rose. No more respect is ever accorded men of any nation than that which they themselves are in a position to demand. Money — the power by which America is ruled — is like water: it is a powerful force when harnessed and directed into the proper channels, but a useless quantity when allowed to pursue its own bent. A formula as such, is not a subject of copywright, but it can be trademarked. William Pickens's Observations Inferiority Complex are an asset, are they of sufficient importance to our economic security to justify a more liberal share of the purchasing power of the Negro population? Plan Upon Facts Early next year a business census will be taken of wholesale trade, retail trade, business services and miscellaneous business enterprises, construction and real estate, banking, finance and insurance, professional services and transportation and communication. Upon the completion of this work we shall be able to make a comparison with the business census of 1930. An analysis of the facts will show whether we have made progress during the five years. 1930 to 1935; whether we were able to hold our own in spite of the depression, or whether but we made two other propositions that they pledge to support the stronger one after the primaries. Bruce, feeling sure of his strength consented — the other refused. Assurance Needed Then, in desperation, I made a final suggestion; that since no cooperation could be pledged before the primaries a meeting should be called after the primaries to take up de move what the situation may demand. After the primaries, that was done, Bruce was stronger in primaries, and the other forces agreed to support him although he had a small majority over the Conklin and the colored rival. We wanted to make assurance doubly sure. This gave Conklin and the whites the jitters; at the election meeting everything was done to elect Conklin: some of the Negro supporters of Bruce found that their credentials were not "just right," —some could not get into the hall at all. There was a near riot. The whites were in the saddle and in the presiding chair. And in spite of this the voting named Bruce by a small majority. Then the presiding white tried high-handedly to "adjourn" the meeting and to hold the election later, — hoping that a bit more dirty work would in the meantime, wipe out Bruce's small majority. But the Bruce forces being a majority, took charge of the meeting, would not adjourn and confirmed his election. Then Conklin went crying to Dooling ad tried to get a "part" of the district any way, the "white" part. Dooling ordered a new election. Again Bruce won. — In the meantime we had talked to the colored brothers. Personally I had written 1000 letters, and had invited some of the wobbly ones to my house, when I ought to have been asleep nights telling them of the great opportunity before them. Next time Bruce was elected by an unmistakable majority, and now you see the assiminity of the protest to Dooling, especially of the Negro delegation's part in it. No wonder the Tammany Chief cussed. Calvin Says- By FLOYD J. CALVIN AFRICAN RACE ISSUE The race issue in Ethiopia is growing hotter and hotter. With the Italians advancing from the North and South, it is becoming more and more necessary that the worst passions be fanned to white heat to generate sufficient strength and energy to dispel the invaders. It is predicted that as a last resort, Emperor Haile Selassie will appeal to black and colored men, as such, everywhere, to help this, the last of the independent African states, to maintain its sovereignty. The possibility and even the probability of such an appeal is causing no little worry to Europeans in Ethiopia and to colonial officials in Paris and London. Such an appeal could easily make serious trouble for both France and Eugland, for each has many Negro and colored subjects. A rushing of blacks to defend blacks would destroy the basis of calculation of the white overlords. Josef Israel, 2nd, corresponding to the New Yrbk Tins, from Addis Ababa, quotes an Ethiopian minister, "educated in Europe and widely traveled," as saying: "If we wanted native help from the Sudan or from the British territories of the South, we would know how to get it. We would not need or want to make such a move in any public way. The ancient methods of communication would be sufficient, and you can be sure that in such an eventuality the result would be more than adequate. Our problem would not be to raise the warriors, but rather to arm them and use them effectively." We in America have made a fettish of subordinating the "race issue" as a measure of defense, but if its fanning will help Ethiopia, we must favor it there. BUILDING POLITICAL MACHINES The publication of Prof. Gosnell's book on the Negro in Chicago politics serves to emphasize the importance in our racial development of building effective political machines. In analyzing the Chicago situation, Prof. Gonell shows just how Negroes on the South Side rose to power through effective machine manipulation. Just what part in the organization was played by the press, the church the professional class, business men, and so on, is shown. And it is revealed, inadvertently, that the ends justified the means. It is revealed, also, inadvertently, BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL we have suffered great or only small losses in the retail business. The importance of this business census to us cannot be measured, and all of our business men should see that their reports are properly made to the census enumerators who will begin the national business inventory or stock-taking some time in January. We must not be unmindful of the fact that our PURCHASING POWER PROPERLY ORGANIZED and used is a powerful lever and a great asset. I particularized on our retail business as a practical illustration of the service being given us by the Bureau of the Census. It is showing us "where we are, and whither we are tending," but it is un to us to determine, in the language of Abraham Lincoln, "what to do and how to do it." that organization is the thing, and that wherever Negroes are congregated in appreciable numbers, if they go about the matter in a businesslike way, they can get just about whatever they want through machine rule. Some will argue that machine rule is bad, and therefore it is bad for Negroes. The fact remains, however, that Negroes, being barred from free and honorable participation as citizens in governmental affairs must use the tactics which will win recognition through force, and machine rule is about the most effective force known to politics today. So, we must build our machines through which we may win primary recognition. After that recognition is won we may use diplomacy in making further advances, if we think wise. There are no recognized established records, but an army worm has been known to cross an 80-acre field, a distance of one-fourth of a mile, in 24 hours. Of "Panorama," by an unknown novelist, Francis Iles, in the London Daily Telegram, says: "If I have paid readers the compliment of not excitedly discovering some 'masterpiece' for them every week, I hope they will pay me the compliment in return of believing me when I tell them that I have found something decidedly above the average level. "I am diffident about that hackneyed word, but if 'Panorama' is not a masterpiece, then I do not know what a masterpiece can be. To me, at any rate, this book appears in the nature of what one may call a 'document', just as The Way of Al) Flesh' and The Diary of a Disappointed Man' are documents. That is to say, these books contain in them a distillation of some essence that is common to all mankind, so that, reading them, every human being says, 'This is I myself.' “Panorama” contains this rare quality. I think that it stands on the same shelf as those two works; and, if it is not swamped n the flood of competent fiction that streams from the printing-press of our day, it should take its place as a classic. I do not know who ‘An Unknown Novelist’ is (the pseudonym is ironical); he may, like the author of ‘The Diary of a Disappointed Man,’ have only this one book in him; but whoever he may be and whatever he may do later, this book of his is one that any author worth his salt would give his left eye to have written. "It is the story of a man's life from boyhood to middle-age, told with considerable technical skill in four jumps, at the ages of ten, twenty thirty and forty. The gaps we fill in for ourselves, and it is a sign of the author's mastery of mere craftsmanship that what he leaves out is as significant as what he puts in. What Is Not Told "For instance, the chapter called 'Twenty' is partly concerned with the young man's patting himself on the back for his lack of pre-occupation with women and the remarkable cleanness of his mind (the reader quickly realizes that this is an unconsciously defensive shield to hide from himself his fear of women); we are therefore all agog to learn what his reactions will be when the shield is first shattered. But we do not see it shattered. When we meet him again, at thirty, it is as if such a shield had never been. "I_mentioned 'The Way of All Flesh' and 'The Diary of a Disappointed Man.' The first summed up what every child, even the nicest child, has felt at times about his parents—even the most excellent parents. The second little more to be said about the bitterness of failure; and all of us know secretly that we are failures. 'Panorama' now extracts the weakness from each of us and lays it on the table for us to look at. Is there anyone, even the most apparently complacent, who does not know that really and truly he is only a poor weak creature, that when other people think he is not they have just been rather cleverly deceived, and that people do not really like him? He is an unimaginative clod if he never feels something like that. Well, 'Panorama' puts it into words. "I make no apology for employing, in the case of this book, a certain hyperbole which I hope is not often present in this article; for if any small squeak from the house-tops which I can raise may help towards bringing 'Panorama' and its unknown novelist to the attention of discerning readers, then that small squeak shall be uttered." $2.50.

It's little things like that, and the telephone calls from in-town-ers, and the friendly pats on the back and the cherry "Hello's" in passing, that make the old scribbler know that this is one grand, good world. And that it wouldn't be half so swell if there weren't so many Lovely Ladies and Great Big Bold Men in it who take time off ever so often to do and say the interesting things that help the Prattler's pen along. Isn't it grand to have a sense of humor? And have you ever noticed what wide streaks of it some of those smart Washington lawyers have? Take George Hayes, for instance. He's been springing a sort of "cross-word puzzle" on his friends and then doubling up with glee when they repeatedly fail to figure it out. It's called "A toast to Mr. Bumps" and is supposed to be as simple as A B C. But you'll use a lot of good time and maybe a lot of bad language and then end up not only looking dumb but probably miles away from the answer. So, if you really think you're brilliant, see Mr. Hayes and try to say "a toast to Mr. Bumps." Saw Mrs. Pierre, wife of Dr. Samuel Pierre of 2124 L Street, Northwest, looking slim and trim, in gray tweed the other day.

For the "honey" moon is still shining over the former Ruth Weatherless and her druggist bridegroom. (And it is probably very difficult to focus your attention on the bright red diamonds on the deck of cards, when the white one that sparkles on your finger has a brand new wedding band beside it). Mrs. Shief made a charming hostess as she moved about clad in a pretty red print. She was here, there and everywhere at the very same minute and yet not seeming a bit hurried or ruffled. Mr. Shief (the attorney himself) kept quiet the whole long evening. Two of the guests thought he must have been sick unconscious or something. But he wasn't. When the last bit of chicken salad was eaten, and the delicious ice cream and cake had vanished, in walked the lawyer talking so fast not one of the dozen women could get in a wore edgewise. He did stop talking long enough, though, to extend a welcome courtesy to his wife's departing guests. (He acted as Mr. Taxi-man for everyone that wasn't doing the chauffeur trick herself.) So you're heard the shrill squeaks, too. (It's the Lincoln Athletic Club, being bawled out by a lot of women). The organization stages a boxing match or some other athletic stunt, every now and then. And Husbands and Big Mr. Boy Friends (who've been scheduled to fill in at bridge games, or act as escorts to ladies en route to dances) are being numbered among the missing when these definite dates arrive. Hence all the feminine howling. So many members of the Lee clan came to Washington from so many directions last Sunday that traffic on — well, anyway there were Dr. C. Dudley Lee, Resident Physician of the Boys' Reformatory of the State of Maryland, Mr. Allen P. Lee, Postal clerk, of the Pittsburgh, Pa., Post Office and Mrs. Ruth Lee McAbee of Baltimore. They were paying flying visits to their father, the Rev. I. S. Lee, who has been ill for quite some time but whose spirits rose in proportion, as the Lee crowd increased.

Before the appointed time the members assembled at the ball room and pulled a rather pretty trick. On every tall, white column and here and there on the walls they posted black and gold placards, with their names plainly printed thereon. And late that night, when lights were soft and music sweet none of the guests forgot for a minute that "twas the Acacia Club that was giving to them their hour of dance and merriment. For turn North or South or West as they might, the names Reva, Corinne, and Anna, Regina, Ruth and Mabel, Opheline, Alice and Mannie, Willie, Mae and Edna were shining right out to greet them.

Yes, the big turkey day is here again and many plans are being made for its observance by those in the social whirl. It seems a quite difficult matter to decide upon just what trip to make to witness the clash of football strength. We have the Howard-Lincoln game being played in Atlantic City on Thanksgiving night, in that huge well appointed auditorium, on the boardwalk and then, too, we have the Hampton-Union game, which has grown in popularity, being played in New York City. Those, who attended the game year before last, in Atlantic City, could never forget that marvelous picture presented in the auditorium during the game, the first one to be scheduled for evening and indoors, when visitors from all parts of the country, some attired in sport costumes, others, in afternoon dress and still others strictly evening clothes, gathered to first witness the game and then proceed to the ballroom in the same building to enjoy the beauty and grandeur of the hall as well as tripping the light fantastic toe to the melodies played by Claude Hopkins, assisted, with vocal numbers by Orlando Robeson. Then too, the social program arranged by the Atlantic City people was one with unending activities. Mornings, afternoons and evenings during the entire weekend were taken up with some form of entertainment. From rumors and present indications the same routine is being planned. Harlem too, in New York City, will be the scene of many gay parties in honor of visitors attending the Hampton-Union game. In all, next week-end promises to be quite lively and interesting.

Despite the rain, the Omega Psi Phi dance, on last Saturday evening, at the Lincoln Colonnade, was quite enjoyable. It climaxed the activities carried on by the fraternity during Negro Achievement Week. Booths representing business achievement had been arranged in the hall and were most revealing in the message they brought to those in attendance. Many Washingtonians still loyal to the Howard football team, motored to Richmond, Va., to witness the Howard-Union clash. Quite a few also enjoyed the Hampton-Morgan tilt at Hampton last Saturday.

Each Tuesday the sales have increased—hence we feel that we have given to our readers a paper of newsy attractiveness. The make-up on white paper differentiates the Tuesday paper from the week-end green Tribune. The early paper carries some exclusive features that go to make if a whole-family newspaper. For the men there is a different sports page by Sam Lacy, from which you can get news three days earlier than you would if you had to wait for the same news in our week-end paper. For the women, Gertrude C. Frazier, who has been a special writer on the Tribune for a number of years has charge of a news up-to-the-minute women's section in which she stresses things of interest to the women in all walks of life. She features food and news items of particular interest to women. There are also in this section articles dealing with the care of the home and of the person—beauty and styles. "The Woman's World," a column of miscellaneous articles pertaining to women is written by Arden H. Duane, of the Associated Negro Press. Children not Forgotten The kiddies are not forgotten. The Children's Corner, conducted by Beatrice M. Murphy, is proving one of the most popular features of the Tuesday issue. Phone calls have been received commending favorably on this feature of the Tribune. The Tribune feels proud of this feature because more than ten years ago C. Leslie Frazier edited the first Children's Page in Negro journalism. Some of the Tribune's staunch friends are those of our subscribers who used to take part in this feature of this paper, when it was still young. Other Tuesday Features "The Black X" which causes the telephone to work overtime when omitted from the paper is in Tuesday's issue, entirely different from that in the Friday paper. The coeds and highschoolers demand Black X, and it is given to you. Other columns for the younger set which are exclusive Tuesday features are "The Washington Sketch Book," by Chick Webb; "Live and Learn," by Joseph C. Overton; "Orchids Only," by William (Wigles) Thomas; "The Younger Set," by Daniel Parker; "The Voice of Alexandria," by Eddie Newman; and "Alexandria at Random," by John (Art) Staunton. Frederick S. Weaver's aggressive "As It Seems," and Abbie Wallace's "In the Shadow of the Stars" are also features found only in the Tuesday issue. All of the above has been to inform our readers what features are in the early issue. But that does not tell all. You have to see an issue to appreciate the last-minute news that is given to you while it is news. Read one of our Tuesday papers, and see how you like it.

Technical Group Protests WPA Action On Solomon Harper NEW YORK (ANP) — Asserting that the WPA, through Administrator Bictor F. Ridder, who recently succeeded Hugh Johnson, was practicing flagrant discrimination," despite Ridder's statements to the contrary, the Federation of Architects, Engineers, Chemists and Technicians has launched a fight to have Solomon Harper placed on a WPA job. According to the federation, Harper, "although qualified for engineering work, has been denied time and time again consideration for such a job, although he is an electrical engineer and a member of the American Society for the Advancement of Science." Harper is an avowed communist and has spent considerable time in jail for his Red activities. "Stand upon your own ground; be your own ruler: Look to yourself, not to your stars for your failure or success; always make your standard a lofty ideal and try persistently to reach it, though all the temptations of earth and all the powers of darkness strive against you." — George Sand.

(AMP)—Despondent over being unemployed and estranged from his young wife, John Wilkerson attempted to commit suicide here at his home Tuesday night, by firing a bullet into his left lung. The shot attracted other members of the household who rushed him to the hospital for treatment. He told hospital attaches that he did not want to live. "My aim" cried the wounded man, as he begged them to let him die, "was bad. I wanted to send the bullet into my heart and end it all. I lost my job and then my wife, because I could not provide for her as I had been doing, she left me. So what have I to live for now."

P. Wiseman, white, of Memphis. At the inquest at which Wiseman was exonerated of all blame for the accident, he declared that the aged woman stepped in front of his car suddenly and that he was absolutely helpless as far as avoiding striking her. Friends testified that Mrs. Irwin's sight and hearing were impaired and expressed the opinion that she neither heard or saw the car. Italy announces her lowest unemployment since 1930.

Bruce, recently elected president of the local branch of the N.A.A.C.P., and A. S. Pinkett, secretary, called upon Miss Louise McGuire, director of social work of the juvenile court of the District of Columbia, last Tuesday, and urged the advantages of the training school at Blue Plains rather than sending the boys to the reform school on Bladensburg Road. Mr. Bruce was spokesman for the committee, and pointed out that there were greater opportunities for reclaiming the boys and returning them to their proper place in organized society from Blue Plains than from the reform school. The shop equipment at Blue Plains, it was represented, is quite inadequate for instruction in such trades as the boys would find useful when returned to their homes, and there is great need for the arousing of sentiment among the citizens of Washington, which would result in congressional appropriations to equip such shops as an institution of that kind should have. Mr. Bruce pledged the aid of the N.A.A.C.P. to bring about these desired ends. MISSING COSTONIE AIDE TURNS UP By HARRY B. WEBBER PHILADELPHIA, Pa. (UNP) —The missing Rev. J. D. Brooks, of Newark, was seen here 10 days ago at the West Philadelphia home of Prof. Anthony George. Brooks, former chief aide of the Prophet K. Costume of New York, vanished somewhere in this city the middle of September following a series of meetings held by Costonie in Atlantic City. Prof. George, interviewed at his luxurious home on Sunday afternoon, revealed that Brooks had called there for his bag about 10 days ago. Costonie had left the minister's bag at Prof. George's in September. The fact that Brooks had not been seen and had not called for the bag, led to the report that he was missing.

Why run one-man street cars in Negro sections? Why run one-man street cars during rush hours? If you must run one-man cars, why not run more of them to relieve the existing congestion on cars? Why have more cars running west on U Street? Why have patrons wait so long for a car and when it finally does come—have it so crowded that they cannot even get on? Why not put some of your new cars in Negro sections? The above questions are asked in numerous complaints that come into the office of the Washington office. We pass them on to you in the hope that you will answer them in word and in deed. The WASHINGTON TRIBUNE The WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. LUCK CHARM DEALER DRAWS TWO YEARS ST LOUIS (By F. J. Collins for ANP) — "Professor" James C. Chapman, 59-year-old dealer in luck charms, pleaded guilty of using the mailis to defraud and was sentenced to two years in the Federal Reformatory at Chillicothe, Ohio, by Federal Judge Wham at East St. Louis. The charge was based on Chapman's correspondence with a woman in Akron, Ohio, in which he discussed the merit of good luck charms and their respective prices. In passing sentence, Judge Wham censured him for "playing on the superstitions of people who have no better sense than to believe in you." A price list and one of the charms seized in a raid on his place last April were exhibited in court. Chapman stated when arrested that he also supplied lists of "lucky numbers" for policy players at 50 cents each. Gettysburg CCC Workers Find Soldier's Remains A burial service with military honors for the skeleton remains of a Union soldier was held recently at Gettyburg National Military Park, it was reported to the National Park Service, this week. CCC workers, at work on one of the landscaping projects in the military park uncovered a few fragments of bone just north of the Excelsior Brigade Monument. The remains were disinterred and examined by National Park Service historians, including Dr. Louis E. King, senior historian, the only colored technician stationed at Gettyburg National Park. A few buttons identified the bones as those of a Union private. A fragment of shell also was found buried near the spot. Interment was made by Camp 112, Sons of Union Veterans, in the section of Gettyburg Cemetery for unknown soldiers of New York State Lowe Opens Funeral Home On Florida Avenue Jeffery L.

SCOTTSBORO BOY FACES LOSS OF EYESIGHT Youths Keep Abreast of Times by Reading Newspapers Inam in Decatur Alabama jail. Returning from a visit with the Scottsboro boys in Jefferson County jail, Birmingham, Anna Damon recently reported the youths find renewed hope for their own release in the strength and breadth of the workers' campaign to free another labor prisoner, Angelo Herndon. "I was astonished at the knowledge the Scottsboro boys, especially Heywood Patterson, have of the Herndon case," said Miss Damon, acting secretary of the International Labor Defense. She continued: Writes to Herndon "Heywood has been corresponding with Angelo. Heywood told me, 'We didn't organize workers to light for relief like Herndon did, but we know that, like him, we are in jail largely because of our color. We know that, like Herndon, we have been kept alive this ta' by the campaign of our friends." Miss Damon commented that it would take renewed efforts indeed, of "all the people" in the broadest mass campaign, to save the Scottsboro boys now. For, she pointed out, they "are the victims of a new 'within-the-law' frame-up." The state of Alabama is striving to rush them to conviction by a "compliance" with the latest Supreme Court ruling which "still in spirit and in fact denies them justice." The lone Negro on the Alabama jury which has just reindicted the youths is a sample of the state authorities' technique, Miss Damon pointed out. Close to half of the state's population are Negroes, but the division of the jury was one Negro and seventeen white jurymen. "Their lives are in graver danger now, perhaps, than ever before," she added. "Their morale is strikingly good, though they are tired very tired of imprisonment, as one can well understand since several were taken as mere children and have grown up behind the bars. "Now, more than ever, the case demands the united efforts of Negro and white trade unions, liberal groups, church people, all organizations." Visits Mother Just before surrendering, Herndon spent some days with Mrs. Viola Montgomery, mother of Olin. The Scottsboro boy.

It was affected at the time of his arrest; then it has become almost sightless and the vision of his other eye is dimming, too. Incarceration has aggravated the condition. Mrs. Damon believes.

Judge Walter T. McCarthy, venerable jhrist of the Fairfax Courthouse, included the names of the three colored persons when he submitted the jury panel for the month of November. The men named were: Gus Burke of Centreville; Thomas P. Harris, of Mount Vernon, and William H. Randall, of Falls Church. Court Begins Monday Arson indictments against Mrs. L. Louise Carpenter and Mary Louise Carpenter, mother and daughter, will be put to trial when the hearing of cases is begun next Monday. When the two were indicted for burning a dwelling last spring by a grand jury composed of white persons their attorney, E. J. DeJarnette, raised the constitutional question of the absence of colored persons from the jury lists. Colored Jury Indicts A special grand jury composed entirely of colored persons was then summoned by Judge McCarthy and the two women again were indicted. Not since the days of the war between the States have Negroes been included on juries in historic Fairfax County Courthouse. It is generally supposed that Judge McCarthy's action was an aftermath of the famous Scottsboro case. "NIGGERS" MUST BE SEGREGATED, SAYS NURSE Seventh Street Dentist Claims Treatment Is "Just as Good" "Niggers" are not good enough to mix with white persons and must use a jim-crow office, a nurse in the office of Dr. Benjamin Leon, 447 Seventh Street, Northwest, told a reporter for the Tribune, last week. The reporter called at the office and entered the general waiting room where several persons were sitting. A white woman dressed in a nurse's uniform immediately tried to usher the reporter into a dark middle room. The reporter refused to go into the room and told the woman he would remain in the hall. When the woman came out he asked her was it the practice of the dentist to segregate his patrons. She replied that "niggers" were "niggers," and white people must not mix with them. An attempt to reach Dr. Leon on the telephone and at his home failed, so a letter was written the dentist, who has a large colored trade. After several days the dentist, in a letter, stated that the nurse was obeying his orders, and although colored-persons were segregated they received "just as good" treatment. He says he has been jim-crowing colored persons for 33 years in "order to keep peace and harmony" in his office. During a telephone conversation with a woman in the dentist's office later an attempt was made to compare the attitude of Hitler towards Jews in Germany with Jim-crowism in the dentist's office, but the woman hung up without commenting on the segregation of that race in Germany.

Dr. Ferebee's speech was a feature of the Xi Omega Chapter of the AKA Sorority's observance of American Education Week. Motion pictures of the work done in Mississippi during the health survey were shown. Dr. Ferebee was introduced by Mrs. Edna Over Gray, director of the North Carolina Region of the sorority. Others who took part in the program were Sadie I. Daniels, basleus of the sorority; the Rev. Robert W. Brooks, pastor of Lincoln Temple; Mariorie Lawrence Jackson, who rendered an organ solo and the AKA Choral Group, which rendered several songs. Text of Speech The high lights of Dr. Ferebee's speech are as follows: At the National Boule of the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, held in New York City in December, 134. Miss Ida L. Jackson of Oakland, California, national basilicus of the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, urged that the educated Negro reach down to help Negroes of the lowest levels in the South.

Marton Savell, managing editor of the magazine, in reply to Dean Smith's letter, pointed out that the word Negro was capitalized at all times when used as a noun but not when used as an adjective, but we have instructed our copy desk to use a capital N hereafter, whether this word is used as a noun or adjective."

It is the first health service financed and serviced by and for Negroes. A letter was written to Miss Osborne of the Health Department of the State of Mississippi asking for the cooperation of that department, and suggestions as to the most urgent health needs in Holmes County. Named Chairman This letter was then referred to the local health officer in whose county they wished to work. He suggested a program of immunization against small-nox and diphtheria among pre-school children. This idea was approved by the health committee of the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority (which consisted of: Dr. Dorothy Boulding-Ferebee, Washington, D.C., chairman and director of the project; Sorors Norma Bovd, Washington, D.C.; Zenobia Gilbin, Richmond, Georgia; Irene Malvan, Washington, D.C.; Agnes E.

Colonel Hubert Julian Quits Ethiopia in Disgust for Good Harlem "Eagle" in Bad Again with Emperor, Leaves for U.S. ADDIS ABABA (ANP)—Colonel Hubert Julian the Black Eagle of Harlem who has not fared so well in this his second personal invasion of the empire of Haile Selassie, started for home in bitter disguise and disappointment from a small railway station outside Addis Ababa Sunday. According to the flyer himself, he resigned from the imperial forces "because his authority was not respected." He left by way of the small station in order to avoid "a big send-off by my thousands of admirers." Cracked Up Plane But, according to others, Julian has not behaved himself in the eyes of the emperor and has got himself into sore financial straits. Five yeas ago he was received with wide open arms by the Negus. He was named commander of the royal air forces. Things went well until the aviator cracked up while giving an exhibition of flying at the coronation ceremonies. He immediately lost caste, but blamed in on "foreign jealousy," and returned to America. Julian went back to Ethiopia a few months ago and offered his services for the then impending conflict with Italy. Speedily Demoted The Black Eagle was again given a chance, but Colonel John C. Robinson of Chicago was appointed to the place Julian believed was rightfully his. The Harlemite has been bitter since then, and as a result was demoted. For a while, Julian lived only on his credit with friends and fellow Americans. Then he was given a job teaching new recruits to the Ethiopian army, how to march whereupon he purchased a Alpha Alpha Sorority Committee which ingten, Miss., last summer, learned or conditions children and men and the Southern towns.

According to government officials, the flyer, attempted to replenish his flat purse by having Ethiopia pay for supplies which had already been paid for. He then told the emperor, according to reports, that no salary had been paid him for eight months. An investigation not only proved this untrue, but showed Julian indebted to the administration.

S. Surgeon General Cummings and this was followed by a conference at which time Dr. Cummings endorsed the committee's idea of attempting to interest the states in including such a project under The Social Security Act, or to take on similar projects which might be submitted and financed with funds obtained through the Social Security Act. Clinic at Lexington A program was worked out for a clinic to be established at the Saints Industrial School, Lexington, Mississippi, to be staffed by volunteer women physicians of the AKA, assisted by local physicians, public health nurses and members of the Holmes County Health Department. The clinic was to be opened for a period of six weeks, July 8 to August 16, from 9 to 4, and each child come twice to the clinic; once for diptheria and three weeks later for smallpox vaccination. Set Up Travelling Clinic On July 7, 1935 twelve women met in Lexington, Mississippi, to open the clinic, and discovered that conditions were not at all as they had expected and planned for. They had to abandon the idea of a Central clinic and set up a travelling clinic, as the children lived on plantations to which they were bound in a state of peonage and could not leave to attend the clinic. The committee mustered all available cars and plotted on the map the locations of all large plantations. Three trips had to be made to each plantation, travelling over hot roads through blinding dust; first, to get the permission of the plantation owners to come on the grounds and see the Negroes; sec- iian Quits for Good Tried to Marry Princess and Sell Story of His Life and Experiences marry one of the royal princesses. As Haile Selassie has only one unwedded daughter, the Princess Tschai, it was suggested to Julian it was she. Whereupon the flyer is alleged to have replied, "You'll see." Still hard pressed for cash, Julian tried to sell the story of his lifg and experiences in the Ethiopian empire to white newspapermen for 300 thalers. When there were no takers, he reduced the price to 100. There were still no takers. Last week he went to the palace expecting an interview with the emperor, but instead received a written message. After reading, Julian collapsed. A few days later, however, the flyer stated their differences had been patched up. Quarrels Over Baggage Quarrels Over Baggage His resignation and leave-taking came as something of a surprise to those who believed all was well. When he boarded the train outside Addis Ababa for Dijboutti, French Somaliland, it was not until after one last quarrel, this time with customs officials and soldiers over his baggage. "I'm through with Ethiopia," were his parting words. "After this I'll spread my wings under the American eagle. These people here have no respect for my authority."

Refused Permission Permission to come on the grounds was at first very reluctantly given, but when the land owners realized that it would be an advantage to them to keep their Negroes healthy, 27 out of 28 consented. Only one plantation owner refused permission for the committee to come on his grounds. The clinic was divided in half; each half going in opposite directions every day. The committee's day began at 5 a.m., when they arose, at their breakfast, packed the day's equipment and medical supplies and drove for miles to the plantations. Their day ended at sundown, around 6 or 7 p.m. There was no place for them to obtain anything to eat and only one plantation gave them food. When they arrived at the plantations, improvised clinics were set up under trees, in deserted shacks, or wherever a likely spot was found. The children were held in the cotton field until the very last minute, and when they arrived, were very timid shy, and afraid of everything and everybody. History Records Impossible They were arranged in lines and brought to the record tables where attempts were made to get some sort of records for history. This was very difficult, as they had no idea of dates, and when a woman was asked a child's age, she would say: "She was born around cotton picking time," etc. The children had all kinds of nicknames, such as "fat back," etc. But the expressions of all revealed a pathetic hunger for health and in- (See DR.

"I hope, said Sergeant York, "Italy will be defeated, sent back home and made to pay for every cent's worth of damage that's been done. But I don't want to see this country take up arms to help do it. And if she does count me out. If we are attacked I'd be on the shore to meet them when they arrived.

BRUCE IS ELECTED NAACP HEAD Chairman of Executive Committee Succeeds Mrs. McGuire John C. Bruce supervising principal in the public schools of the District of Columbia, chairman of the executive committee of the N.A.A.C.P. since March 3, 1928, and three times acting president of the branch, was elected president Tuesday to fill the unexpired term of Mrs. Virginia R. McGuire resigned. Mr. Bruce has been an active and effective influence in N.A.A.C.P. affairs since its organization. Last summer he represented the branch at the annual conference in St. Louis and the year before in Chicago. By virtue of his office as chairman of the executive committee he became acting president on the death of Neval H. Thomas, and again on the death of Miss Emma F. G. Merritt, and for a third time on the resignation of Mrs. McGuire. Upon inquiry being made of the branch secretary, he had the following to say: "The branch has had five presidents prior to Mr. Bruce—the Rev. J. Milton Walldron, Hon. Archibald H. Grimke, Prof. Neval H. Thomas, Miss Emma F. G. Merritt and Mrs. Virginia R. M. Guire, all of whom made creditable contributions to the work of the N.A.A.C.P. But measured by the length, value and amount of service rendered prior to coming into the office of president, Mr. Bruce tops them all. If the arduous work and great responsibility of that office can be styled an honor, the newly elected president merits all the honor the office has to give." 4,615 REGISTER FOR X-RAY TEST Health Department Officials Pleased at Large Number to Respond Nearly 5,000 persons have registered for the free-chest X-Ray examinations to date, it was announced Tuesday morning by central office officials from their headquarters at 1022 Eleventh Street, Northwest.
