G. O.P. LEADER
DIES AT IS
By Monroe Mason

Charles N. lines, we'll known
COP. leader died last week. His
political career of nearly four decades
was outstanding. He was leader of
a Boston ward which for many years
claimed the largest Colored registered
vote in Massachusetts. Political and
business shifts of the last two decades
caused a basic change reducing the
Colored vote to almost zero.
The last legislative re-distributing
bill, said to have been dictated by
lines, was never forgotten by scores
of Colored leaders. That charge of
"gerrymandering" the Colored vote in
Boston was never challenged by the
stricken leader. He was a power in
national as well as local politics,
hurry Chane, Henry Cabot Lodge,
William M. Butler and many other
COP. leaders held Innes in high es-
TEEN as adviser and confidant. Poll
ticians of past and the present genera
lions of both parties were recipients

ENDS CHELSEA
CHI. CONTROVERSY

CHELSEA-With the transfer of
Rev. S. P. Perry from the pastorate of
the First A.M.E. Church in Chelsea by
Bishop David H. Sims at the recent
Annual Conference in Springfield, last
Sunday, the two-year-old controversy
between the two colored ministers and
their congregations in said city was at
last brought to a final close. The New
England Conference sounded the death
knell to the pickering and disharmony
in the two colored churches. Thus the
final chapter has been written to the
futile controversy which has ragged in
Chelsea since May 20, 1887, when Rev.
Perry was first appointed to Peoples
Church, and an ugly blot on the escut-
cheon of African Methodism has been
erased.
For the past two years the loyal
members of Peoples Church have been
clamoring for the removal of Rev.
Perry firm Chelsea where they claimed
that he was keeping up a continual up
roar in the community. For a while it
seemed that their voices fell upon deaf
ears, for the Bishops and Presiding
Elders used the methods of appease-
ment and reason in an attempt to settle
the controversy in a peaceful manner.
But when it was obvious that these
methods had completely failed, these
high church officials asserted their
power and authority and put an end
to the controversy once and for all
time. The Bishop said that he saw no
need for the fight to continue, for it
was doing the church no good what
ever; so he suggested that the whole
matter be dropped and the members
of the Annual Conference were over

NEAR RIOT AT HOUSING MEETING
Mrs. Roosevelt Endorses Anderson Mural
TURBULENT HEARING
ON HOUSING PROJECTS

The shortage of low rental houses
and apartments and the hardships and
anxiety created by the federal govern
mont's seizure of property for slum
clearance projects were brought
dramatically into the open at a
stormy hearing Thursday afternoon
IN Faneuil Hall.
Women wept as they related the
distress. Of being evicted from their
aamcs and faced with no immediate
prospect Of securing quarters at rents
hey could afford to pay. In tears they
begged for relief in their bewilder-
m-nt arising from not only their in
ability to find other habitations but a
lack Of funds to pay for moving their
household goods.
The meeting at times waxed so
Hbulent that police interviewed to
restore some semblance or order. Boo

the hearing in which proponents and
opponents Of the housing projects APP
peared to be about evenly divided in
number

ing projects already planned for the
South Boston, Charlestown and Lenox
Street sites which the United States
Government had recently seized bv
eminent domain. Dwellers in the
three areas were on May 20 given
notices to vacate within 80 days. With
the shortage of suitable quarters for
low-income families it seems next to
to comply with the govern
ment demand. Hence the anxiety and
hardship among the residents of those
districts who in many cases are on
relief and receive but small amounts
of money to exc out a precarious exis-
tence. There is poignant distress
these people.
Mrs. Leontine Davis of Sawyer st.
in the RoXbury area, Ward 9, made a
strong plea for the families in that
section. Most of them are without

Today's Sport Parade
BY HENRY McLEMORE United Press Staff C0rrespOndenU

wasn't time, and not so long ago, either, that Montague wasn't good bet against anyone who ever swung club. Granted, he hasn't had that skill for couple of years Last winter in California and was no bet ter than two or three handicap player, what with wild woods and spotty putting stroke. He wasn't playing much then, only occasional pickup games, usually with George von Elm.
 I talked with Montague by long distance telephone yesterday and he thinks his game warrants at least try at the open championship He does not feel that he is at peak form, but believes he may be some- where near that condition by June. "I'll tell you one thing" he said from Akron, where he was about to start an exhibition match, I'm leveling this time. I'm dead serious. haven't played much as you know maybe 12 or IS rounds in year but I've been in training and physically I'm great. Down from 236 pounds to 216, which IS about my best weight, and I'm not only on the wagon-I'm driving it. Haven't played scotch foursome- and you know the kind of scotch foursome mean-for months" ] How was he hitting the ball? "A lot better. Broke par with 8 70 yesterday. and might have been better with little luck. My woods still aren't what I would like them to be, but I'm willing to sacrifice distance to get back my accuracy
 Was he still using those mon- strous, bludgeon-like clubs of his?
 You mean those little fellows?" he asked. "Oh, sure. I still have my strength, you know"
 Snead Slipping?
 Montague isn't the only well known golflng figure who will face the trying qualifying test on Mon- day. Because he played so poorly at Denver last year Sammy Snead must prove his right to play in top flight company. This seems a pit ridiculous when you remember that Sammy was the biggest money win- ner of them all last year, and is generally recognized as one of the greatest players the game ever pro- duced. Other stars who must take their chances of qualifying along with hundreds of fellows named Tom. Dick, Ike and Harry are Law son Little. Walter Hagen. Tommy Armour and Leo Diegel to name a few.
 When you think of Hagen having to qualify, after all he has done for golf, it makes you wonder why someone doesn't walk into the U. s. G. A. and. at the point of pistol. If necessary, make those gentlemen pass law whereby all former hold CTS of the title are automatically qualified. There are a lot of us who would rather see Hagen and some of the other aging stars shoot Q 70 than watch most of the new and colorless robots skitter around in co.

The Pemberton Aces defeated the WalnutS A. 0. by a score of B to l. Murphy pitched one-hit ball and allowed one unearned run, which was scored in the ninth inning by an error. Dronick starred at bat as Spillane sparkled afield. In the first inning Donnelly walked stole second and scored when Murphy hit long triple. In the fourth Spillane and Burke hit consecutive singles and scored on Droznick double. In the eighth Duane hit a double with on base. For the loser Simpson starred in the field catching long drives.
 The Aces will play the Baldwin Aces Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Coach Evon wants all players to re- port.
 The Aces will use Dromick and Murphy for the battery and the Baldwins will use Grynick and Hal lanan. The Aces would like to play games with any outstanding team in the city. Coach Evon has the boys outf1tted with new suits and jackets.
