Rum Bonus Proves
Failure in Virginia
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Dec. 18.-The ABC
Boards December bonus plan-two
full portions of rum for a single ra-
ton coupons not working out as
we'll as the board hoped, a spokes-
man declared yesterday.
Virginians just don't seem to like
rum-even in double portions-as
well as they like whisky.
When the December bonus offer
of two ration units of rum for one
coupon was announced, the ABC
Board hoped the plan would relieve
the pressure on the low stock of
whisky on hand, it was explained.
But the tastes of liquor patrons ap-
peared very we'll set on whisky and
huge stocks of rum are left begging,
although the offer has moved a lot
of rum from the stores.
The bonus of a quart Of fortified
wine with each ration unit of whisky
purchased also has served to move
more wines during December than
in any other month in recent his
tory. The board is not so much
concerned over its wine stocks as it
is with the rum.
1t was hoped by the board that
the offer on rum would give it a
chance to build up a little backlog
of whisky, but the hope has not
been realized. A um-buying spree
may be in store for the latter days
OF the month, in the event whisky
stocks become more depleted, but
ABC officials do not see any evidence
of it at this time.

Break in Cold Wave
Predicted for Today:
.19 Degrees at 8 Am.
Two More Deaths Here,
Including Woman Burned
Attributed to Weather

The cold wave was expected to
melt away today in sunshine and
warmer winds.
The temperature, it was predicted,
would 60 to a today instead of lin
gering below the freezing point as
it had most OF the time during the
last three days.
Tomorrow, the Weather Bureau
said, will also be sunny and warmer.
The mercury want down to 10 at
8 am: and then started to rise
rapidly.
The cold wave was sliding OF the
continent along the Florida coast.
1t was 18 last night at Tallahassee,
Fla, one degree colder than WASH
ington's low.
Two more deaths connected with
the cold were recorded. A colored
baby died of pneumonia while being
removed from a partially heated
alley dwelling. A young colored
woman was burned to death when
her clothes ignited from hot stove
in an alley dwelling.
Body Found in Dwelling.
The baby was Edward B. Copeland,
IA months. 1924 Congress court NE.
Police found insufficient coal on
hand to heat the place and obtained
100 pounds from a neighborhood
dealer.
Colored Woman Dies.
The young woman was Annabelle
Smith, Is, of 2034 Alexander's court
NV. Her body was found in the
ruins Of the dwelling. 1t was said
that her clothes caught fire from the
stove. A man who was with her
tried to put them out, but failed,
and the blaze quickly enveloped the
shack.
DR.. A. Magruder Macdonald, Dis
trict coroner, said that cold was a
contributing factor rather than a
primary cause in the several deaths
in the open during the cold spell
which police reported as "appar-
emily caused by freezing"
Cold Contributing Factor.
I'VE have not come upon any
cases where man was actually
frozen to DEATH" Dr. Macdonald
said. TT takes more extreme tenn
peratures than we have experienced
or very prolonged exposure to freeze
a man to death. Cold becomes a con-
tributing factor 1t constricts the
outer blood vessels and throws more
pressure on the interior ones. This
is sometimes more than the heart
can stard."
The cold weather provided a va
cation for 10 employees of the hos
pital permit bureau of the Health
in an old building at 472
Indiana avenue. When the, engi-
neers were unable to get the tenn
perature above 81, DR.. Douglas West,
head of the bureau, sent the force
home and spent the rest of the day
the three telephones in
the office.

Book Review

"Angel Mo- and Her Son, Roland
Hayes" by MacKinley Helm, At
iantic Monthly Press, Little, Brown,
$2.75 PIP. 289 November, 1912.
This is a readable biography,
written as if Roland Hayes were
speaking, of the great Negro singer
and his changes from an impover-
ished Georgia farm boy, born of
slave parents, to a world renowned
artist.
Americans, particularly most
Northerners, white and Negro, can
learn much of the trials and rebuffs
of Negro concert singer, over his
55 years; of his realization that he
was himself, an example of Negro
artistry rather than an imitation of
white voices and performances; and
of the uncivilized treatment he met
from Duluth to pre-Hitler Leipzig.
Musicians will find revealing
comments on Negro spirituals as
native American music rooted part
ly in ancient African tribal rhythms
interviewer with emotional repeti-
tive verse of Christian origin. With
out doubt Roland Hayes contrib
uted much to American culture and
art, likewise to a slight increase in
racial understanding perhaps even
in the deep South.
On the negative side it appears
that he is willing to accept and
submit to himself and his people
being treated as less than Ameri-
cans. But considering that his
great-grandfather and his grand
father were both whipped and
beaten to death, that he himself
has been beaten and jailed for being
a Negro; and considering that in
1888 lynching threatened when a
white music student tried to live in
a cabin on Angel Mos farm, what
can be done?
Also frequently in the book he
himself uses an Objectionable adj
jective (why doesn't the NAACP
change the name to MA of N?).
