FASHION REVUE
PLEASES SOCIETY
Jack and the Bean Stalk En-
tertains Children

Knickerbocker Hall, 905 4th Ave.
S., was filed to overlooking Tues
day night, April IA, upon the
presentation of the widely adver-
tised Fashion Revue, sponsored by
the Mems Club and the Women's
Guild of st. Thomas Episcopal
Church, Minneapolis. st. Paul was
drawn upon for large number of
the social elites, who presented
the beautifully costumed revue,
while the audience, numbering well
over 500, was made up of many of
the best known men and women of
the two cities. The program was
novel and varied; young women
attractively gowned in the seasons
best for women, owned, and, in
some instances designed and made
by themselves, modelled in the pro-
fessional manner. Well known
and popular colored stars of the
stage and screen were imperson-
ated so well as to rival the prin-
cipals themselves. Unique light
ing effects lent glamour to the
scenes, though at times a little too
powerful spotlight dazzled the per-
formers. The stag setting pleased
the eye and Max SWANS orches-
ira acquitted itself well in the
music, accompanying the choral
singing and later the dance, where
the younger element held the lime
light. Individual performers were
too good and too numerous to per-
NIT appraisal. It was a fine show,
which did credit to it's sponsors and
brought into high relief the adver-
Using genius of the responsible,
Woodworking committee.
The committee is deeply appre-
ciative of the fine cooperation Of
participants and patrons, and ex-
tends thanks to them all.
PHYLLIS WHEATLEY CHILL
DREN SHOW PROMISING
TALENT
After two months of rehearsal
Jack and the Bean Stalk was pro-
duced on the Phyllis Wheatley
stage Tuesday night to the vocifer-
GUS applause of the young folks,
who, with parents and friends,
crowded to capacity the assembly
of this popular settlement house.
The characters of this rollicking
fairy story were the young boys
and girls of Phyllis who, under
the patient and expert training of
Mrs. Blanch o. Mason, Miss Mary
Louise Bohanon, and Mrs. Alice
Onque, staged a play full of tune
full music, skillful acting that both
surprised and delighted the audi
ence. And again there was so
much of individual talent displayed
as to make all but impossible a
choice of the best.
Suffice it to say that all did ex-
ceedingly well, covering themselves
with glory and once again evidenc-
ing the great value of the Phyllis
Wheatley management in the train
ing of the children and in the de-
velopment of youthful talent.

COMMENT
By w. M. SMITH

The presumption that there is
no further opportunity for colored
young people in the main profess
sional lines, because these avenues
are already overcrowded, is proved
erroneous by a statement issued
by the Census Bureau in Washing
ton, D. c. These conclusions are
drawn from the most extended and
critical investigation and may be
accepted as authoritative. For in
stance, it is shown that in the Dis
trict of Columbia, where there is
the smallest number of possible
clients for the practice of law per
person engaged in that profession,
the number is 1,348, while in South
Carolina and Mississippi the fig
ures run to 11,S46 and 14,221, re-
spectively. It follows that the
Negro lawyer who locates in the
District of Columbia will find
much harder shedding than if he
chose South Carolina or Missis-
sippi. The trouble appears to be
that our professional men and
women elect to follow their pro-
fession in the places where their
people are not, rather than in
localities where there are many.
The following excerpts make in
teresting reading:

 GETS 20 YEARS

 Beer Plant Shooting

TACOMA, Wash, Jan. B. Peter Marinoff, former President of the Northwest Brewing company, yester day was sentenced to serve 20 years in the state penitentiary as access sorry before the fact in the staying of William Ustalo, union picket, last May. The state contended Marinoff supplied the revolver with which the shooting was done and in addition urged brewery guards to "get those men," The shooting was the out growth of labor trouble at the brew cry.
 H. H. Hiatt, one of the guards who is alleged to have hired the others, also was given 20 years. J. L. Han ford, former police officer, received a year in the county jail, the sen tence being suspended, and Theodore Fergerson, who admittedly fired the shot, was given a year with time off after eight months spent in the county jail
 Superior Judge E. D. Hodge, who pronounced the sentences, denounc- ed Marinoff and Hiatt as having in- spired the shooting. In letting Han- ford off with light sentence, the Judge remarked the man was fi- nancially desperate at the time, and he characterized Fergerson as weak 
 Marinoff has been widely known in the Northwest for years. During prohibition days he was hailed into court several times in connection with rum-running cases. After repeal he promoted the brewing company with plants in Tacoma, Seattle and Walla Walla

Publisher Gave Great Serv- ice to Territory
 During Term

Deep regret at the passing of for mer Gov. Scott c Bone was ex- pressed today by Gov. John w. Troy and other Territorial officials.
 q am shocked and pained to learn of the death of Governor Bone, " Gov. Troy said "He was one of the finest characters it was ever my fortune to meet, and was a good friend of Alaska and the North west.
 "He was newspaperman of the first order, and a very fine gentle man. His record as a journalist, author, publicist and public official stamps him as one of the big men to be associated with Alaska.
 His family life and associations with his friends was ideal, and thou sands of friends in Alaska, up and down the coast and throughout the country from ocean to ocean mourn with his family

GOV. OK. ALLEN OF LOUISIANA
 DIES SUDDENLY
Polite al Boss Victim of Cereb ral Hemorrhage
 While Leaving Mansion
RECENTLY NOMINATED
 TO SENATE POSITION
Chief Executive Was Rev to Senator Longs Rule
 in Southern State

BATON ROUGE, La. Jan.
 2S.-GOv. Oscar K. Allen,
 successor to the late U. s.
 Senator Huey Long as pO- litical boss of Louisiana,
 died suddenly today of cere- bral hemOrrhage. Death came as he was leaving the Governors mansion for the capitol building.
 Lieut.. Gov. James A. Noe immediately assumed t he duties of the Governor.
 Gov. Allen was nominated recently to fill the unexpired term of Senator Long in the United States Senate, at a spirited p r m arr y ele c t i on which was reminiscent of the days of Long rule in the state. In Longs hey day, Allen was known as 70. K" Allen, his initials, but also implying he said o K to everything Sena- tor Long demanded. It was through Allen that Long call ed special sessions of the Leg islature, mobilized the Nation al Guard into action and put through some of his steam roller legislation at a mo- ment's notice.
 Was Wealthy
 Gov. Allen was a wealthy man and had been a strong supporter of Long in the days when the lat ter was making his climb to politi- cal fame. It was said that rather than being a tool of the Senators that Gov. Allen was more of fath- CT to him and preferred to stay in the background while Huey took the bows.
 Since Longs violent death last summer by shooting, Gov. Allen had taken over control of politics in the state and the vote at the last pri- mary indicated that he had much of the same strong following that the late Senator had.

Manufacturers Have Alb.
sorhed Share of JohIess,
Board Declares.
By the Axsociated Prexs.

NEW YORK, March 26.-The board
OF directors OF the National Associa-
ton of Manufacturers In q resolution
adopted yesterday declared members
Of the organization are doing more
than their share toward lifting the
burden Of national unemployment.
The action was In answer TO Presi-
dent Roosevelt's proposal TO Congress
that we ask private industry TO ex-
tend It's operations so as to absorb In
increasing numbers the unemployed"
Directors stated: The manufactur-
Ing industry in the two years between
January, 1894 and 1896, has, In COM
parison with all other forms Of pri-
vate enterprise. provided 80 per cent
OF the total new employment.
1T has, and Is, carrying more than
its proportionate share, and on the
whole has lifted average hourly rates
to the level or beyond those Of 1929.
Less than 100000 additional
workers will bring manufacturing en-
ployment up to the 1929 maximum,
and 1t Is thus obvious that manufac-
turers cannot provide work for the
9,000,0 900 or more jobless."
At the same time the directors de-
cried Government competition with
private industry" asked for "curtail-
ment Of governmental extravagance"
and suggested that the chief pools
Of unemployment lie in the durable
goods industries and particularly In
the construction industries"
