ZIFF CO., Ch'cago, 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 ill jail for several hours until he could raise $l.”00 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 bishops who it dislikes to the small, out-of-the-way and poorly paying districts. 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 ly 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 sued to break this contract on th ground that the “girl told on him,’’ the Recorder and the Review consistently kept plum. 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 ly, and the result is that their publications trying to please everybody, rafe hardly third class, and Bishop Grant is safe from criticism. In this church, the policy of defending and apologizing for those accused of crime and imtnorality 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. One wonders where it wil] stop. —Baltimore Afro-American Kelly Miller Says: Shaking The Political Plum Tro" And Gather'"’ Th- P’-n- FoLLcal results a” • v • to the c »i o nd race <D through partizan. and (2j through non-partizan activi’- In securing small favo”s. partisan adherents are apt to be more successful; but to accomplishing any result of broad advantage requires non-partizan and stateman like pro cedure Since the days of recon struction all worthwhile reforms in politics have com" about on this principle. Civil service reform the enfranchisement of woman and all other great social reforms have been 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 lowed is other mal lines The Negro became a partizan by necessitv. But as time and circumstances change this ancient partizanship bwom"‘ less and less necessary and de sirable. For the last twenty yea-, the Negro has gained no advantage of value bv virtue of partisan ad- herence. Ue has received little or nothing by way of the spoils of of 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 I Negro's political hope, if he has any, ( lies in non-partizan movements do ubted to the welfare of the race re - I gardless of partizanship. The ac- I complishments of the National As- ' sociation for the Advancement of golored People amply sustains this iesis. Here is a purely nonpartizan organization which is ready to co i With or against either or bot. poli- | tical parties in order to promo ■ th.? I advancement of the people Ti we put in parallel columns the achieve- I ments of this militant organization and those of our purely partizan | leadership, the contrast would be pitiable indeed. Bv way of improve- ; ment of the Negro’s political, civil civic status, the partizan politi- j elans have accomplished absolutely । nothing within the past two decades. Un the mean time, the N. A. A. C P has secured from the Supreme COUrt two unanimous decisions, on" decision validating the Fifteenth Amendment, and the other, outlaw fng segregation as far as that can bo done by legal action. This or ganization has followed up the validation of the Fifteenth Amend ment by overthrowing the legality tA the white Democratic primaries In the South and a further decision that any individual who attempts to deprive a citizen of the right of franchise is chargeable with a cri rnlnal offense. Thus the whole tabvic of disfranchisement has been given a body blow. All of this has been accomplished while partizan politicians have been doing noth ing but shooting off their blatan* mouths glorifying the G. O. P. denouncing the Democrats ad versary. The N. A. A C.

Since ‘his great triumph, the organization has pursued the pro-Parker sen ators. though as some believe vin dictively. yet all must concede with ’•emarkablo success. It has punished or helped to punish for their politi cal sins against the black man’s "ights senatorial aspirants in Kan sas. Ohio, and Now Jersey and is sharpening its hatchet for the neck as the next candidate who shows his pro-Parker head. The old lino nartizans have looked in with wail ings and lamentations. If I thought that the welfare of the Negro could be advanced bv urging all Negroes to vote the Re publican ticket. I would do so. If I believed that the interests of the -aee would be best promoted by adv’sing some to vote for the Ro nublicans and some for the Demo crats. I would so advise. And if T t wero convinced that the advantage of the race lay in opposing both Republicans and Democrats, th”” ’ would advise such opposition. My advancement of the race throv-’h only consuming concern is the the requisite action.

Va. — The svste—: used by the Ford Company to re lieve suffering among Negro unem ployed was set forth by E. G Lie bold. general secretary tn Henry Ford, in a letter to Dr. John W Davis, of President Hoover's Com mission on Unemployment Relief The letter was as follows: "Mr. Ford has asked the writer to "" ' ' ' 1 W VSkETC H ! book U- jr B y THEOPHILUS LEWIf Gentlemen, Be Seated LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, if you will give me your attention ;or afew minutes. I wish to make an important announcement. 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— yes, I said novel! I know vou have probablv seen oodles of minstrel shows, all the way back to the days of Docstader and Prim rose. But you haven’t seen our minstrel show. 1 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 anything about it. Our Beal Street Gal After Mid. Keley goes off. if ho isn’t carried off. we will present our Brunhildean Beal Street prima donna. Lillian Sharpe Hunter Ou diva will render that grand Italian aria, “The St. Louis Blues." T hav? been informed that Mr. Handy h"s never heard Miss Hunter sine th" “St. Louis Blues." so it is not likelv that he will be present to protest. It is also my pleasure to announce that the Court of Appeals has de nied Noble Sissle's request for an injunction restraining Jimmie singing "My Dream of the Big Pa- Smith. our busines manager, from -ado,” Lovers of liberty will hail ‘b’- decision as another notable victory so” the freedom of the press. Although we are doing our best reply to your letter of October 21st. on the subject of unemploymen. unong the Negroes and what we are proposing to do relative to car ing for the families of the unem ployed. ""Arrangements are being made to employ those who are mostly in need. “For those whom we are not able to provide employment, or until such time as they are employed, ar rangements are being made to ex tend them credit for the purchase of food supplies, which credit they will agree to repay within six months after they find employment. This will prevent the feeling that they are dependent upon the com munity and obviate the pitfalls of i dole or welfare which we eem 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 based upon :ne number of dependents. "The commissary or store where food will be supplied will be under our jurisdiction. However, if they become employed their dealings will be with the usual merchants in stead of the commissary."

For his encore, if any, he will offer "Please Don't Talk About Me When 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 er of Sketch Boyk will play an important ,f incc/ispicuous, part in the nummeries. For the informa tion of those who might come with the ir’ention of throwing some thing. 1 wish to say that I am no' going to appear out front. I am only going to help with moving I the scenery.

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 1 dance for you. 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 Jenkins' Orphanage band rehearsing Sousa’s “El Capitan” march backwards. Most colored band loaders, cncou'-aged bv the ne-sistent ballvhno of a mob of white vulgarians. like Waite’ - Winchell and their hanky-head imitators on the hither side of the color line, make their bids for popularity by f"alii ,- ing the kind of “hot” so-called harmonies that are reputed to make music take the place of gin. m-slers and love nowders OL-orvcd in a theatre the monkevshincs of these bands are usually highly entertaining: for only a blind man could fail to be amused by the sight of the saxophonist turning somersaults, the trombone player 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 shuffles from one olayer to another like a man with St. Vitus’ dance. No doubt, the .ad ’■ent of television will enable us to ”njoy these antics over th" air. Sissle’s orchestra is the best col ored band that has ever been on the air. Lost this bo takon for faint praise. T hasten to add that it easily ra’es with the half-dozen leading white orchestras currently broadcasting. Guy Lombardo, Bon Bernie. Paul Whiteman, Rudy Val lee, Coon Saride-s to make six you simply must include Noble Sissle. And not necessarily at the bottom of th” 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 blood-stirring rhythms can never take the place of a melody thst p’oasos the ear Sissle's playing is straight forward and sweet, anil, 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 orch”sl'"a m r ing civilized music to what affects the ear like a band of clowns en gaged in trombone practice.
