ZIFF CO., Chicago, New York, Los Angeles & ° ® . Bishop Grant Sits Pretty ¢.; Despite the fact that he was torn from the altar where he was presiding over the Alabama Conference and lodged in jail for several hours until he could raise $1,000 bond, Bishop R. A. Grant is sitting pretty. . . Bishops of his church, with one exception, have failed to condemn their collegue. The reason is that Bishop Grant belongs to the majority faction of the bishops’ coun cil; which assigns those bhishops who it dislikes to the small, out-of-the-way and poorly paving districts. L. As far as the bishops of the church are concerned, Bis hop Grant is safe. ~ As far as the church publications are concerned, his job is secure also. The Philadelphia Christian Recorder ,the official week- Iy organ, and the quarterly A.M.E. Review chronicle every episcopal act, but when Bishop Grant signed a contract to pay $2,000 to the mother of an illegitimate child, and then Bued to break this contract on th ground that the “girl told on him,” the Recorder and the Review consistently kept mum. The reason is, their editors are candidates for the bis hops’ bench themselves, so they'll say nothing that might cause them to lose the vote of Bishop Grant’s friends in the next General Conference. .~ The ambitions of these editors muzzle them complete 1y, -and the result is that their publications trying to please éyerybody, ratle hardly third class, and Bishop Grant is safe frem criticism. -+ In this church, the policy of defending and apologizing for those accused of crime and immorality has become so fixed that it is not surprising to find alleged episcopal mis demeanors on the increase. - #'*The list now includes graft, fraud, drunkenness and pa ternity.

Since the days of recon struction all worthwhile reforms in politics have come about on this principle. Civil service reform. the enfranchisement of woman and all ofher great social reforms have beén promoted on a non-partizan basis. . The political advancement, in the first instance, became a partizan matter as a geographical accident. Attitude on the race problem fol- Towed is other mal lines. The Negro became a partizan by necessitv. But as time and circumstances change this ancient partizanship become less and less neccssary and de sirable. For the last twenty year: the Negro has gained no advantage of valuc bv virtue of partizan ad- herence. He has received little or nothing by way of the spoils of of-l fice, the immemorial reward of| partizanship, nor yet he secured any | farvorable legislation or effective enforcement of the law where his citizenship rights were in jeopardy Nor does there seem to be any hope | for improvement for the future. | Past experience proves that the!

By way of improve-| ment of the Negro's political. civil ad civic status. the partizan politi- | ans have accomplished absolutely : within the past two decades. ‘the mean time, the N. A. A. C.

This or ganization has followed up the validation of the Fifteenth Amend t'nnt by overthrowing the legality bf the white Democratic primaries w South and a further decision any individual who attempts to leprive a citizen of the right of “franchise is chargeable with a cri- Pinal offense, Thus the whole wc of disfranchisement has been given a body blow.

On the evening of Friday, Dec. 4, the Newspaper Scrapbook, an organi zation of employees of The Am sterdam News, will pitch a party in the form of an amateur min strel show and dance in the Alham bra Ballroom. You are doubtless aware that there are two kinds of parties. Those that are pitched and those that are given. When you are invited to a party that's being given you don't go if you can think of a plausible excuse for staying away. If you do show up. you don't have a good time and go home early. You can take my word for it that our party is not being given. It's being pitched, tossed. heaved and thrown for a row of bellylaughs. We are going to unlax in all kinds of ways and ask you to come and have a good time with us until it's time to go home and take the milk in. A novel feature of the evening's entertainment will be a minstrel show— ves, I said novel! I know vou have probably seen oodles of minstrel shows. all the way back {o the days of Docstader and Prim rose. But you haven't seen our minstrel show. I insist that it's a genuine novelty. If you don't be lieve me, come and see for your self, The show will open with Mr. Keley, the editdr. singing the old favorite, “Old Black Joes.” The reason why we have decided to let Mr. Kelley render the opening number is because we want a per former with a lot of magnetism. not to mention good looks, to warm up the house, so our show can get away to a flying start. An other reason is because the au thor of “Old Black Joe” has been dead a long time and can’t do anvthing about it. Our Beal Street Gal After Mrd. Keley goes off. if he isn't carried off. we will present our Brunhildean Beal Street prima donna, Lillian Sharpe Hunter. Our diva will render that grand Italian aria “The St Tolis Biues.' Y have been informed that Mr. Handy hos never heard Miss Hunter sing the “St. Louis Blues.” so it is not likelv that he will be present to protest. Tt is also my pleasure to announce that the Court of Appeals has de nied Noble Sissle's request for an ‘injunction resiraining Jimmie singing “My Dream of the Big Pa- Smith, our busines manager. from ~ade.” Lovers of libertvy will hail ‘L~ decision as another notable victory for the frecdom of the press.

"1'his will prevent the feeling that ‘thcy are dependent upon the com munity and obviate the pitfalls of | dole or welfare which we seem to !be unable to avoid. “Our plan provide; for the proper investigation to be made among the various dependent families and the credit extended, is to be basea upon tne number of dependents. “The commissary or store where food will be supplied will be under our jurisdiction.

Depositors of Defunct Bank Cal! Meeting Louisville.

Fo ‘his encore, if any, he will offer “Please Don't Talk About Me iWhen I'm Gone.” Still, the situa ‘tion is not completely hopeless. ' There is a slight chance that the copyrighters will refuse to give ‘him permission to sing the num bers. It is even probable that the writ ler of Sketch Boy% will play an iimportant g incc/\splcuous. part in 'the nummeries.

We will ring down the curtain at 11:30 p. m. if Mr. Davis gets an encore. At 11:25 lif he doesn’'t. But we wouldn't think of turning our guests out in the street in the shank of the even ing. So we have arranged for Ver non Andrades and his orchestra to be among those present. That ‘means there will be plenty of ‘sweet music to make it worth ‘'while to bring along the certain 'someone who always saves the last 'dance for vou. Music in the Air Noble Sissle desreves no end of praise for putting on the air a col ored orchestra that does n o t sound like a cracked phonograh record of Jnnkinsf Orphanage banA rehearsing Sousa's “El Capitan’ march backwards. Most colored band lcaders. encouraged by the nersistent ballvhon of a mob of white vulgarians. like Walter Winchell and their hanky-head imitators on the hither side of the color line, make their bids for popularity by featuring the kind of “hot” so-called harmonies that are reputed to make music take the place of gin, ovsiors and love nowders, Ohcorved in a theatre the monkevshines of these bands are usuallv high'y entertaining: for onlv a blind man could fail to be amused by the sight of the saxophonist turning somersaults. t h e trombone plaver bouncing around in a circle on his rump and the trap drummer sliding halfway across the stage on his belly to tinkle the cymbal at just the right second to maintain the rhythm, while the leader chuffles from one player to annther like a man with St. Vitus' dance. No doubt, the ad cent of television will enable us to onjoy these antics over the air. Sissle's orchestra is the best col ored band that has ever been on the air. lL.est this be taken for faint praise, T hasten to add that it easily rates with the half-dozen leading white orchestras currently broadcasting. Guy Lambardo, Ben 'Bernie, Paul Whiteman, Rudy Val 'lee, Coon Sanders--to make six 'you simply must include Noble 'Sissle. And not neeessarily at the lbmtom of the list. When Sissle plays a tune it is not necessary to wait for the network announcer to tell you what he's playing. This is the first essential of sound music, for sensational harmonies a n d hlond-stirring rhythms can never take the place of a melody thst pleases. the ear Sissle’s playing is straigh!forward and sweet and, at the same time, stimulating and sensuous. To turn from one of his broadcasts to one of, say Cab Calloway, is to turn from a competent orchesira piav ing civilized music to what affects the ear like a band of clowns en gaged in trombone practice.
