Chicago Hospital Prexy
Slices $4,000 Salary

CHICAGO.-Alexander l.. Jack
son, president of Provident Hospital,
the new S3.000,000 health center
now being prepared for tenantey on
the South Side here, voluntarily re-
duced his $4,000 salary by half at
the meeting of the trustee board of
the institution last week.
A flat reduction of 10 per cent
was proposed, but Mr.. Jackson ex-
pressed a willingness to forego all
or any part of his salary in order
that those employees in the lower
salary class might not have to make
the sacrifice of accepting a reduc-
ton. The executive committee &C
cepted his offer of half his salary
with thanks and announced that the
reduction in salaries voted remained
at 10 per cent for those drawing the
higher ratios of compensation, but
was reduced to five per cent of those
drawing less than $1,000 per year.

Colored Woman
Sues For Estate
OF White Hubby

NEW YORK.-A parallel to the
famous Carlton Curtis-Letitia Brown
interracial love tangle of several
years ago was aired in the local
courts this week when Mrs. Ada
King, of Flushing, N. Y, filed suit
to recover an $4,000 trust fund
which she claims was established by
her rich common-law husband.
The defendants are three socially
prominent men who are acting as
trustees in the estate of the late
Clarence King, who died in 1901. and
from whose estate she drew an in
come of $55 monthly.
Prominent Men
Those named defendants were
George Foster Peabody, philanthropy
list and banker; Seth Sprague Terry,
millionaire lawyer, and John A. Mel
cher. wealthy clubman.
Mrs. King charges that for more
than 30 years she refrained from fill
ing suit against the estate of the late
Clarence King on the understanding
that she receive SIS monthly which
at the time of the agreement was
considered a fair figure. Two chill
dren born of the love match were
reared through these payments which
were paid through the Legal Aid So
ciety.
Mrs. King demanded a bill of par
ticulars from the defendants asking
them to reveal the name of her mys-
ferrous benefactor.
Sues Family
NJ r ~ e IL
Mrs. King declared she met King in
Arkansas when he was prospecting
for oil. He made a fortune and re-
turned to New York taking her with
him. He bought her a home in Flush
ing where she has lived ever since.
King died in 1901 and James Terry
Gardiner became trustee of the es-
tate. She learned about the trust
fund that King had established for
her and decided to sue to get it. A
man by the name of William G. Win
ME pleaded with her to spare Kings
mother the shock Of knowing of the
affair between herself and King. He
told her that if she started any trou-
BILE the S55 monthly payments would
cease
Gardiner died in 1912 and Terry
and Melcher were named trustees.
The payments were stopped and Mrs.
King was informed that her benefae-
tor had died.
Through her attorney, Herman n.
| Schwartz, she started suit, naming
six heirs of Gardiner as co-defend-
ants with the trustees. The heirs,
most of them socially prominent. are
Florence Gardiner Hail, Margaret D.
Fairweather. Doane Gardiner. Ely G..
Gardiner Annie G. Pier and Benia-
min w. Frazier.
The defendants admit that Mrs.
King was the common-law wife of
King, but deny any knowledge Of a
trust fund for her.

Ask New Trial
In Chicago Civil
Rights Case

CHICAGO. = Charging that the
court had not done justice in re-
warding him a verdict of $25 in a
case brought against the Stoner
Lunch and Sandwich Company which
refused to serve them, A. M. Bur-
roughs and Charles j. Jenkins, have
asked a new trial.
Following refusal Of employees
of the place to serve them in July,
1929, Mr.. Burroughs, who was at
that time president of the Cook
County Bar Association, and Mr..
jenkins, a state legislator, sent for
the manager, who refused to come
out. In response to letter of COM
plant, however, he came to Mr.. Bur-
rough's office and stated that it was
not their policy to serve colored peo-
pie, but that he was sorry this had
not been explained to them.
Suit was filed and the case came
up last week. The president of the
company, the manager and the wait
ress testified that it was not the pol
icy of the store to serve colored un-
less they insisted upon being served.
Both Mr.. Burroughs and Mr.. jenkins
testified that no explanation was
made and that they were flatly re-
fused service.
The jury brought in a verdict for
the compliments but fixed damages
at $25. Another citizen recovered a
verdict against the company a few
weeks ago.

English Heres -
y
DenOunces En- .ds
For Race Prejudice

NEW YORK.-Dispatches receiv-
ed here from Paris reveal the rebel
lion of an English noble woman and
heiress against the conventions of
aristocratic British society in refus-
al to recognize a colored composer
with whom she fell in love. She open
ly denounced the prejudice, not only
of her blue blood associates, but
her mother. Lady Emerald Cunard,
and made it known that she is soon
to leave Europe forever.
Startles Society
Nancy, daughter of the founder of
the great Cunard shipping lines who
left many millions at the time of his
death, found herself affronted with
the slurs and insults of English So
ciety from the time that she became
friendly with Henry Crowder, for
merly a jazz orchestra leader in a
Paris night club and now a composer
of African melodies.
Goaded to the limits of her en-
durance the English woman is re-
ported to have thrown social leaders
into amazement by sending out red
covered New Years greeting pham-
phlet entitled, "Black Man and White
Ladyship." 1t bore an ACCOMPLISHMENT
of her American-born mother for
her race prejudice.
Subjected To Insults
Nancy tells how Margot Asquith,
English social leader, one day last
year when the colored musician Wis
tied London, broke into her crowd
ed drawing room exclaiming, "Hello
Maud, what is it now-drink, drugs,
or niggers?"
She still further tells how her
mother cut her allowance in half and
notified her that she was disinherit-
ed.
The names of Sir Thomas Beech
am, leading English orchestra con-
ductor, and George Moore, English
dignitary were also brought into con-
tempt by Nancy, who criticized them
for prejudicial attacks.
Nancy, who now lives on the Riv-
iera said she will "leave Europe for
ever" presumably with Africa as her
destination. She has given up her
private publishing business in Paris
and plans to sell her country home in
Normandy.

Forbidden By
j. 5. Attorney

WASHINGTON, D. c. - "Black
and tan" night club operators are
faced with the undesirable alterna-
tive of limiting their businesses to
patronage of white patrons only or
closing down, following a position
taken by U. S. Attorney Leo A. Row
er, white, at conference at his
office.
Mr.. Rover told representatives of
the club operators and the landlords
of the buildings in which the clubs
are housed, that he would not permit
"black and tan" night clubs to oper-
ate in the District of Columbia.
There is no law here against the
mixing of races, but the u. S. attor-
ney could use the provisions of the
Volstead Act, or the Shepard Act
which applies only to the District of
Columbia and paddock any night club
for the serving of ginger ale and
cracked ice only known as 'set up, -"
which has been held to be viola
ton of the prohibition law.
The management of Club Prud-
HON, located in the Masonic Temple
Building, at 10th and Z Streets, has
not definitely decided upon a policy,
but no colored patrons were admit
ted Tuesday night under the pretext
that the entire place had been re-
served. There was, however, ten
tative agreement that the place
would be run strictly for white pa
irons only.
A report of the attitude of Mr..
Rover spread quickly over U Street,
Tuesday night. Indignation was gen
orally expressed by colored persons
WHO are interested in civic affairs.
1t was pointed out that this is the
second time recently that racial pref
udice has been shown by the office
of The U. S. attorney here, with re
spect to amusement.
When Mae West was at the Belas.
co Theatre in her play "The Constant
Sinner" Mr.. Rover's office insisted
upon a revision of the text Of the
play to such an extent that the show
was discontinued after two perfor
mances. Assistant u. S. Attorney

Rover to review the show. took more
exception to the inter-racial feature.

Warned by Paul Pugh, proprietor
of the airport east of Topeka, against

that he would circle the field few
times to make observations of the
