 Conceived more than a century ago as "a sovereign refuge" for freed American slaves, Liberia, after years of sleepy inertia, now is look ing forward to progress that will wipe out the stigma attached to charges of inefficiency and corrup- tion, filed before the League of Nations.
 The Barclay administration has promised a school in every village, no matter how small, and new op- portunities for citizens to sell the products of the country
 Inree- ear PrOgram StartS
 Foreign specialists in sanitation, education agriculture, administra- tion and military affairs have been put to work organizing a three-year program for interior development
 As proof of reconciliation with the United States, President Bar clay selected three of these special ists in America. They are:
 Maxwell s ben, administrative specialist, will deal with hinterland affairs. He has had wide experience with aborigine groups in Latin America.
 Prof. Remington L. Embree, edu- cator, has been made President O. the College of West Africa here in Monrovia.
 Capt. William D. Majors, military specialist, had his training with the New Jersey National Guard He won credit as an officer of the Ldberian frontier force under a previous administration.

 The foreign specialists were se- lected in accordance with a plan suggested by the League of Ma tlons. Liberia refused the Leagues active assistance on the ground that it would undermine the re- public's sovereignty, but welcomed the idea of bringing in foreign ex- perts to carry out the vigorous re- forms outline by President Barclay
 One of the early acts of Presi- dent Barcley after his inaugura- tion was to open Liberias first na- tional exposition of agriculture anc industry. The exposition grounds

LEW LESLIE WANTS BLACK
ACTORS TO STAY BLACK

London, NOV. % (By Rudolph
Dunbar for ANP)-Lew Leslie, who
last week started a new edition Of
his "Blackbirds Of 1885," has issued
orders that he wants his actors to
tag the color they were when hired.
The Snowman declared that Ne
gro artists he brought here from
Amerioh changed several shades
lighter after being IN London for a
few months. The girls in particular
do eerything possible in makeup
to relieve their duskiness.
But Leslie wants them good and
black. He declared the essence of
his show IS the color Of his stars
with it's accompaniment of what IS
called "Negroid talent" and that Is
what the British public wants.
When performers start bleaching
out or making up lighter, they are
inclined to forsake their " native"
style in entertainment also model
themselves on white stars, he de-
clared.
Sharing his sentiment along these
lines IS Tim Moore, the dark hued
comedian who Is one of the biggest
features of Blackbirds. SO the rule
now is "stay black as you are, or
else"
In this new edition, which IS do
ing two shows nightly, Eunice VII
son, who was engaged for the Choir
us last time, has been promoted to
The rank of leading lady. The two

of melodies, Of small talk, came
Muses. clear, rich baritone:
pale moon shinin' on the fields
below,
Darkies croonin' songs soft and
low,
You needn't tell me because !
know
It's Sleepy Tine Down South"
And so on through that entire
song. A complete mood was built
up-a mood typical of the south,
familiar to everyone who ever liv-
ed on a plantation. 1t was a com
plete symbol-or as Clarence Muse
terms It, a symphonic picture.
MethOdical Beat of Tom-Toms
Recently Muse did a beautiful
and awesome Interpretation of
Chats Why Darkies We're Born
For this picture, Muse went bacg
to the time when he Zulus had con-
quered the land and were acclaimed
leaders of all t1at wild barbarie
country. Over the air rose the pae-
ons of the victorious war songs, the
harsh babel Of the native dialects,
as they celebrated their victories.
The tom-toms beat steady ON with
a dull, methodical, fearsome beat!
Out Of this gladstone celebration,
there rose gradually a mournful
wailing-the cries of those lost
souls, the Negroes sold on slave
ships and carried from their home
lands to new worlds, there to labor
till they persisted. Their anguished
song rose IN power, then died to a
frightened whimpering, as Of little
children lost IN the dark. A high
violin obligato lent a shrill, sad
i~nsistence to their cries of desola-
ton and despair.
In the next vocal picture, Muse
painted the cotton and tobacco plan
tations down south. Now were
heard the babel Of all these varied
tribal dialects from different parts
o. the homeland, confusion and
noise. The chant of the voodoo cere-
monies were clearly sounded, the
beat of the tom-tom brought mem
cries of Old Mother Africa. Then
out of this confusion came under
standing and peace and Muses.
voice rose clearly, triumphantly in
the tonal beauties of "That's Why
Darkies Were Born"
Plans Other Symphonic Pictures
Muse has created a beautiful,
symphonic picture Of "River Stay
Away From My Door" He plans
many other songs of his people
folk songs, work songs, spirituals.
A student by nature, Clarence Muse
takes a deep delight in tracing the
melodies Of his people to their
sources. He then presents them in
all the wealth Of mythology, suffer
ing, early struggle andfnal em-
elgance as complete musical emit
ties, to the interested public all over
America.
