A.S.C.A.P.
—though not well enough-—is
years old. Written by the j tcti
mlly-forgolten James TV. Blake and
Charles B. Lawlor, it has remained
through the years the most popular
ditty about New York. Its only close
rival in public favor is “The Boio
cry," which also stems back to
the not-so-gay Nineties. "The Bow
ery" was written by Percy Gaunt
and Charles H. Hoyt and was first
sung in the latter’s farce "A Trip
to Chinatown."
Other favorites of (he Nineties, of
which faint echoes are still heard,
are “I Don’t Want to Play in YdUr

W. Petrie; Dave Marion* Her
Eyes Don’t Shine Like Diamonds,
“Her Golden Hair Wa* Hanging ,

Despite their destructive repeti
tion of music, the radio rajah*
maintain a ceaseless cry for new
songs. The demand far exceeds the
supply. Meanwhile, Tschaikowsky
gives way to Tin* Pan Alley and
Tin Pan Alley to Tschaikowsky. So
much music—so much duplicated
music—that you become groggy,
tone-deaf listening to it. Bands al
ternating their rhythms and tones.
You’re soothed by one, agitated by
another. The radio rajahs think
they know what the armchair*
want. The armchairs want plenty ,
of variety. And so the musical
merry-go-round goes on, from arias
to scat singing, from sonata to
swing, from roundelay to rhumba.

the passing of the oid Vienna, the
great waltzes—those of Strauss and
Lehar and Fall—give off a deeper
nostalgia than ever, as now, with
the coming of summer, they appear
regularly on the music racks of the
outdoor orchestras.

While Association officials
pointed out that the report lacked

PRES. PRAISED FOR EXTEND.
SECURITY ACT
(Continued from page 1)
Roy Wilkins, assistant secretary
of the Association, said:
“As you doubtless have been
informed —by your advisers, the
great bulk of Negro wage earn
ers in this country is now exclud
ed from the benefits of the Se>cial
Security Act because they ate oc
cupied in agriculture and domes
tic service.
“Of the five million oolored peo
ple normally gainfully employed,
some three and a quarter million
are engaged in agriculture and
domestic service, so that you can
realize how important to colored
Americans is the contemplated
revision of the Social Security
Act”
A reply to the letter from the
White House advised the Associa
tion that the NAACP. communi
cation wouLd be brought to the
attention of the chairman of the
Social Security Board.
The Association also sent a
letter to Senator Robert F. Wag
ner, of New York, long known for
his aid in fighting for progressive
legislation, urging him to endorse
the proposed revision of the Soc
ial Security.

MANY OF US WONDERED,
BUT NOW WE KNOW WHY
(Continued from page 1)
when Hall displayed it a few days
before the election
Before a tense political gather
ing Hall held aloft the enlarged
photograph of what he said was
proof of the charge. Their bitter
political enemity flared up when
the senator, running for reelect
ion, is said to have used his in
fluence against Hall, causing Hall’s
ouster from his federal post.
Tho card read: “To all Exalted
Cyclops—Greetings: The bearer,
X. L. William McAdoo, whose sig
nature and present address is on
.Street, is a citizen of
tho Invisible Empire, and to him is
given this Imperial Passport that
ho may travel throughout the bene
fieient domain and grant, and have
tho fervent fellowship of Klans.
men. By this authority the Por
tals of your Klavern to meet with
Klansmen in Konclave assembled.
Signed and sealed this 29th day of
February, A. D. 1924, by his Lord
ship. H. W. Evans, Impeiral Wi
zard and Imperial Cyclops.”
‘The Ku Klux Klan tried to
make this man president of these
United States,” Hall charged. “For
many years William Gibbs McAdoo
born in Georgia, raised in Tennes
see, migrant to New York, and
from there on to Californai, has
been the pet of the most intolerant
bigoted, and cruel organization for
tho fostering of hatred and the
destruction of liberty that has ever
taken roots in this great and free
country.”

! BOMB EXPLODES IN DOCTOR'S
YARD AS HURLERS MISS
THEIR MARK
(Continued from page 1)
; land’s Heights, last Sunday night.
The bomb fell on the lawn of
the home near the front entrance.
Had it been hurled a few feet
farther it would have possibly
brought instant death to the two
Baumgardner children—the young
est is nine months old—and to the
wife of the doctor, her father and
the medical man himself. Ten min
utes before it would have met a
party of white friends of the doc_
tor walking out of the door after
a visit.
The bombing was considered to
be a part of a plan that has been
under way to keep the doctor from
moving into the swanky Wilmcr
Load section. Police have in their
possession a rough note that warn
ed the Baumgardners that ‘ if they
moved in the house it would be
blown to bits.”
Dr. Baumgardner was upstairs
tucking the baby in b;d and his
wife was in the kitchen at the
rear when the terrific shock was
felt and the heavy reverberation
of the bomb was heard. Windows,
in the home were shattered and
damage that may well run into the
hundreds of dollars done to the
porch and lawn. Several nearby
homes were rocked by the shock.
No one could be found who had
seen the dynamiter. That the
bomb was crude and probably
home-made, however, seemed obvi
ous from the fact that the greatest
harm came from the detonation
rather than from parts of the
bomb itself.
The caso was given to the po
lice departent of Cleveland Heights
in which section the house is lo
cated, and major of this surberh
has promised a thorough investiga
tion. Dr. Baumgardner is one of
tho best known local specialists,
having a large practice both in his
office arid in Mt. Sinai hospital
where his private surgery is done
He is also a member of the City
hospital staff.
