and the morals court. As chief po
lice magistrate, Mayor McNair re
taliated by declaring the courts
closed. The city jail also was affect

up nor released. Four men arrested
on drunkenness charges were sent to
Judge Smith.

mayor that his conduct was illegal.

B. T. U. MEMBERS
TO GIVE CIRCUS
The smell of saw dust—the cry of
the Barker—the twist of the acrobat
—true circus atmosphere which call
young and old alike.
On Thursday night. June 18, the
general organization of the B. T. U.
of Calvary Baptist Temple will pre
sent a circus at Temple Social Hall,
Barnard and Brady Streets. The big
top will be represented in its many
aspects by a varied though well bal
anced program.
Among the typical circus attrac
tions will be the acrobatic maneuvers
under the direction of Leveme Clary.
Those who have seen Mr. Clary in
his workouts predict that his act will
be one of the sensations of the show.
The circus is a move on the part
of the young people of the church to
foster more friendly relations among
the members of the church. It is
hoped that as many members of the
church as can do so will attend.
The circus is really a get together
of the members of the church, but
visitors will be welcomed. No admis
sion will be charged.

VICTIM OF USURY RACKET CAUSES ARREST OF RING
HEAD IN BROOKLYN, N. Y.
BROOKLYN, N. Y., June 13 (TP).
When Bernard Owens borrowed S3O
four years ago he figured that he
would return the money and inter
est in short order. He arranged to
repay the money in Installments of
$6 a week. Since then he says he
has met the payments regularly. To
day he sat down and figured. His
tabulation showed that he ha,d re
paid a total of more than SI,OOO on

plained his financing. Police also
thought there was something wrong.
They went out and arrested Joseph
Fero, who is accused of making the
loan. Fero said Owens had not paid
him anything like SI,OOO. He declar
ed he had only collected about S6OO
on the loan.
When the police looked further
into the case they say they found
that the lender had other sources of
Income. They declared that, in ad
dtion to the weekly payments of $6
from Owens, Fero was receiving S3B
monthly from relief agencies. Thej’
decided to investigate Fero further
so they held him on a charge of
usury.
