Memphis Beale
Street Shows
Slack of Pace

CHICAGO CAMP Memphis
celebrated Beale Street, "the
street where the blues began"
once known as the murder cap
ital of the world" and Saturday
Night Heaven" subject of many
legends and songs, has slackened
it's pace considerably. "It is a SEN
date, businesslike thoroughfare,
says Ebony, Negro picture maya
zine, in a five-page feature arti-
Gle on "The New Beale Street" in
it's curernt issue.
"Beale Street is but a ghost of
the boisterous, clustering thorough
fare of yesterday" means Ebony.
"Its sweet men and easy riders
are gone; it's gambling dens and
night spots are shut down. A new
Beale street is arising as a SYM
Dol of the new, enterprising, for
ward-looking Southern Negro of
today.
Small and large Negro enter
prises are springing up, ranging
from a Negro chop suey restau-
rant to the $250,000 Tri-State
Bank, one of the biggest banks in
the South, and lending money to
many Negro businessmen for
wholesale grocery and butcher
businesses. New Beale streetrs
has high aspirations, look for
ward to tn day when Negro busin-
ess will dominate the street."
Ebony says by midnight to-
day, the street is virtually desert
ed in contrast to the old days
when nights spots operated all
night long.
The magazine quotes George W.
Lee, insurance executive and au-
thor Of three books on Beale
Street, as saying, "Beale Street
does not cling parasitically to the
! white mans culture. The Negro
is developing a culture of his own,
| caring for his needs in medicine,
law, religion, education and re-
ceration. More Negro business on
the street will strengthen this de-
velopment."
Featured in the article are
Joseph E. Walker and his son, A.
Maceo, owners of the Tri-State
Bank; oldtimer Rev. G. w. Beeler
who has been on the street for 40
years; Joseph and Milo Pacini. Ii

Auditors Work In Pre-Convention
Check Makes Elks Click Financially

sons all over Ln0 OnlCcU OCdCco
were spending the past week pre-
pairing to knock thmselves out
here next week at the annual
Elks convention, a small group of
men have been working quietly
in the windy City" to make sure
this great organization is being
properly run.
This small group comprises the
board of auditors of the Grand
Lodge of the Improved, Benevo-
lent and Protective Order of Elks
of the World. The job of this
board is to see that every penny
spent by the Grand Chapter has
been spent correctly.
Head Of this board is James T.
Cooper of Chicago, chairman OF
finance. Members of his group
are Samuel Mitchell Of New York
and Harry St. Claire of East
Chicago, Ind. The man who takes
a great interest in the work OF
this board is J. Finley Wilson,
grand exalted ruler of the Elks.
When this committee meets,
here is what hapepns. The grand
secretary reports with all, not
some, all of his records and docu-
ments for the past fiscal year.
These usually come in several
trunks and chests. The grand
treasurer also brings his records
and his government bonds.
Besides these important offic-
ers a corps of secretaries and as
sistants also areon hand to aid
the auditing committee in its
work.
No one knows what records
will be checked. The auditors make
a 100 percent check on some
phases of operation and a spot
check on others.
Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson has
insisted that this committee meet
a week in advance of the regular
convention because he wants as
thorough a check on the records
as possible. He says that he must
be satisfied before the auditors
report can be made. He states:
"a good audit of the records ane
an excellent financial report ser
yes to bolster the strength OF tn
organization and to boost tn
members confidence in their of
ficers."
Chairman Cooper has the SAM
feeling about his work. He says
"We take pride in our work
We feel it gives confidence t.
every member to carry out GU
program. An organization like tn
Elks has a great and responsible
program. It must be financiall'
stable to carry it on.

Redding's new book, "They Came
In Chains" took quite a whack-
ing, literally speaking, last Sun
day in a review by Col. Roscoe
Conklin Simmons in the book Sec
ton of the Chicago Sunday Tri-
bune.
Simmons, orator, lecturer, and
prominent Republican, jabbed
Readings repeatedly with pen
points of rhetorical pistons. Red
ding is an English professor at
Hampton institute.
His newest book is a history of
the Negro in America from an
| Astrological standpoint. Simmons
openel his review with the follow
ing statement:
In his new book, "They Came
in Chains" J. Sanders Redding
rides the rapids of grammar as
the carefree exc%ursionist, but as
a historian of the American scene
and the American-African he ex-
hibits neither the scope nor the
profundities of interpretation"
In comparing Redding's history
with his earlier book, a novel,
stranger and Alone" Simmons
preferred the authors narrative.
He criticized Redding for certain
inaccuracies" and also for his
writing. Here are a few quotes
Ellis recital is a feverish re-
petition of the tabled past, en-
bellished by opinion evidently
formed amid surroundings more
erudite than wise :. The granduer
of The Struggle is lost in the
haze of indignation. But there are
all kinds of histories"
To conclude his dissertation or
the Redding history, Simmons
wrote:
1.-TWO books within a year, ONT
a novel and the other a history,
may have been too much for MI
bout SO yeoug people. We ais
have extensive civil liberties

''What we need is more dooryard
gardens" is the title of an article
in February Home Garden maga-
zine, by Editor Ralph Bailey, ma
tionally known garden writer.
What with the arrival of the
garage doors at the street front of
our houses and the acceptance OF
the picture window with the picture
of only the passersby to frame, the
nostalgia dooryard garden of our
grandmother day merits rediscov-
ery," he begins.
The modern fashion of garages
close to the street "makes sense, !"
he continues, but: Replace the
balanced, almost symmetrical IA
cade of tradition with one gigantic
window, as now seems to be the
thing to do, and what's left of the
entrance yard becomes suddenly
ridiculous. So, too, does the window
itself unless something rather spe-
cial is done about it.
Even with older houses, with
garage in the back yard, he con-
tinues, 1.-The old foundation plant
ing gets older and messier as the
seasons go by"
MIR. Bailey supports the solution
of the front yard problem which
has been gaining favor throughout
the country-the development of an
attractive garden planting in the
front yard.
What about the dooryard gar.
