Daily Express Lauds Negro Patriotism ESTABLISHED 1879 LEADING BACE JOURNAL THE LARGEST AND BEST PHONE MAIN 1594 VOLUME 30 LOS ANGELES TRIBUNE PRAISES RACE PATRIOT-ISM Again the Los Angeles Tribune goes to the bat editorially for the race. If other dailies and the pubbits of the country would speak right out as the Tribune in defense of race discrimination in business channels, the colored citizens of this state and country would at least be privileged to enjoy the rights of citizenship to the extent of competing with other peoples in this country, in the trades and professions, and so great would be the spirit of prosperity that the idea of social equality would hence forth be erased from the minds of the people. BLACK PATRIOTS We are not surprised to learn that 526 men out of the 691 negro cavalrymen of the regular army stationed at Fort Huachuca, in Arizona, subscribed for $47,000 worth of Liberty bonds, circumstances and conditions considered, that total is a really great subscription. We think we speak the truth of those black boys when we add they are as willing to give their lives to the government as they were to give their money. It will be noted that their subscriptions were not rejected. Their dollars can be utilized, it seems, as profitably as dollars subscribed by any other citizens. In this respect the negro citizens of Los Angeles are on exactly the same footing as the negro cavalrymen. So far as we are advised, the tax collector has not yet refused to accept their tax money on the ground that their skins are black It is only when the negro presents himself as a candidate for public place that it is suddenly discovered that the color of his skin is an insurmountable objection. Even if he proves his merit competitively through civil service tests, he finds the door of opportunity mexorably barred. He discovers that the obligations and burdens incident to citizenship, the black man is not overlooked. According to his means he bears not only his share, but more than his share. If equality is to be enforced in that respect, it should apply in every relation that is based on the fact of citizenship. STATISTICS SHOW' PROGRESS OF RACE IN LESS THAN SIXTY YEARS John Mitchell Jr. of, Richmond, Va., the only representative of the race affiliated with the American Bankers' Association, which held its annual session Tuesday, Sept. 25, at Atlantic City, N. J., thrilled a great white audience when he addressed them relating facts showing the great financial progress. He said. According to the U. S. Census Reports for 1910, there were (9,827,763) nine million, eight hundred and twenty-seven thousand, sevent hundred and sixty three colored people in this country. Of this number, (7,915,332) seven million nine hundred and fifteen thousand, three hundred and thirty-two reside in the State of Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Tennessee, Missouri, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kentuck and West Virginia. This leaves (1,912,431) one million nine hundred and twelve thousand, four hundred and thirty-one residing in the northern and west states. Granting that the exodus northward and westward assumed huge proportions, it is safe to say that the difference will not exceed one hundred thousand. The bulk of the population will remain where it is. Far-seeing southerners are already diplomatically making chances industrially and commercially in the Southland, both as to wages and living conditions in order to check this immigration. They have been calling into consultation some of the oldest colored readers in that section of the country with a view of finding a remedy to cause a cessation of the unrest. The value of the property of the colored people in this country has been estimated to be seven hundred million dollars. Add to it the deposits in the banks of the county and it will be found to be much more than that. The value of the farm products, such as corn, wheat, oats, rye, rice, hay, potatoes, sweet potatoes, cotton, tocoach, cotton seed, etc., will total six hundred million dollars per annum. Virginia is one of the southern states which segregates the value of the property of its white and colored citizens. The former had about two hundred and fifty years' start on the latter. The value of the colored people's property at the close of the Civil War was and is usually placed at zero. In his annual report for 1916 to His Excellency, H. C. Stuart, Governor of Virginia, Hon. C. Lee Moore Auditor of Public Accounts shows the value of colored people's property and personal to be ($41,081,460) forty one million and eighty one thousand, four hundred and sixty dollars, an increase of $3,232,487) three million, two hundred and thirty two thousand over the year of 1915. The colored population of Virginia (671,096) six hundred and seventy one thousand and ninety-six. These colored people own (1,730,980) one billion, seven hundred and thirty thousand, nine hundred and eighty acres of land an increase in one year The California Eagle of (56,157) fifty-six thousand, one hundred and fifty seven acres. The per capita value of the wealth of the colored people of Virginia as shown is $59.70 fifty-nine dollars and seventy cents. This does not include the amount of money on deposits in the. If the present acreage owned by the colored people were divided up, banks of the country. it would give each man, women and child two and one-half acres. It seems then that the wisdom of your officers, especially your very able Secretary, in extending the blessing of this thrift movement directly to the colored people is apparent. As a preliminary movement I named the following persons to co-operate with me in this great effort: Major R. R Moten, President of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama; Emmett J. Scott, Secretary of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama; Robert J. Owens, Los Angeles, California; Dr. J. W. E. Bowen, Atlanta; Ga. President; James B. Dudley, Greensboro, N. C.; Judge Robert H. Terrell, Washington, D. C.; W. F. Graham, D. D., Philadelphia, Pa.; K. Miller, A.M., Dean of Howard University, Washington, D. C.; Joseph L. Jones, Cincinnati, Ohio; E. J. Warren, Detroit, Mich.; William H. Lewis, Ex-Assistant Attorney General, Boston, Mass.; J. Rupert Jefferson, Parkersburg, W. Va.; Prof. Charles Mitchell, Institute, W. Va.; Charles H. Stewart, Chicago, Ill.; Dr. Ernest Lyon, Baltimore, Md.; B. G. Fitzgerald, Atlantic City, N. J. Thomas M. Crump, Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, E. R. Jefferson, M.D., of Richmond, Va.; William McDonald, Fort Worth, Texas; Charles Banks, Mound Bayou, Miss.; H. L. Price, Palestine, Texas. Meetings have been held and an interest awakened, to the end that millions of dollars are being saved thru the savings departments of banking institutions, and through the medium of Christmas Savings Clubs. In the Liberty Loan rally held in Richmond subscriptions aggregating twenty-five thousand dollars were announced after a meeting of about two hours. Addresses were delivered by Hon Oliver J. Sands, President of the American National Bank of Richmond and Col. William Dabney, Business Manager of the Richmond Chamber of Commerce. THE WOMEN'S HISTORY MUSEUM NO. 3309 HOUSEHOLD OF RUTH GIVE RECEPTION IN HONOR OF THEIR DELEGATE, MRS PEARL HALL. OTHER PROM. INENT MEMBERS GUESTS OF HONOR On last Tuesday evening Household of Ruth No. 3309 of the G. U. O. of O. F. gave quite an elaborate reception in honor of their delegate, Mrs. Pearl Hall, who represented them at the Grand Lodge at Bakersfield last August, at their hall, corner of 8th and Wall street. The room was beautifully decorated with flowers and ferns and the delegate, followed by the other guests of honor, was ushered into the hall escorted by the members. After marcheing around the hall three times they were seated in a semi-circle amid a bower of flowers, when a splendid program was rendered. The address of welcome by Mrs. A. Jones was the inspiration for the evening, as was the response by Mrs. C. A. Bass, one of the honot guests. The delegate, Mrs. Peard Hall, spoke beautifully of the mission she performed and the inspiration gained. Other guests of honor who responded were: Mrs. Eliza Warner, P. N. G.; Mrs. V. Fingers, Mrs. A. Ramsey, Mrs. Daniels, Mrs. Clark, Mrs. Nannie Loving, guest of honor, Mr. E. Russell, grand secretary; A. McDowell and J. B. Bass. At the conclusion of these exercises the guest of honor and honored guests were escorted to the banquet hall, where they, with all the members and friends present partook of a dainty repast served by the committee, and all declared this one of the greatest affairs of its kind ever held in this city. San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, OCTOBER 20. 1917 POOR ORIGINAL SHALL THE LIBERTY BELL STILL RING? There comes a time in every nation's life when it must prove its right to exist, to play a part in the world's drama of events. For America that time has come. The very foundation of liberty is being shaken by the dynamite of autocracy, the most sacred rights ever accorded a free man are being and have been flagrantly assailed, the heart strings of justice have been pulled by the German Kaiser until wounded and sore they sound a signal of distress, the entire world groans because of the ruthless barbarities and cruelties committed in the name of civilization. As Mr. McAdoo says, "We are in this war both because we intend to defend and vindicate the vital rights of America, and while doing that, to achieve the altruistic ideal for which we contend." This is America's answer to the mighty and ringing challenge. This war must be stopped. Germany must be whipped. The Kaiser must be taught that men love liberty well enough to die for its security. Autocracy must be made to realize that the obsequies will shortly be heard over its remains. America has responded nobly to the call of civilization. She has upheld the glorious traditions which have so far guided her destiny. She has placed her all upon the altar—her manhood—her heart. To sustain them money must be had, they must be properly equipped. It is the duty of every citizen at home to send them away with the assurance of loyalty and patriotism. To do this we must help make the Liberty Loan drive a great success. The Colored American has always done his duty, forever answered the call of his country. Ham! in this hour when help is needed, be true to the vision of the past which is the vision of the present—loyalty. Our hearts weep as the boys march away, we wonder, yes, we wonder, will they return. But how lasting would be our pain if we knew that our neglect, and lack of loyalty should deny them the comforts needed while fighting for us at home? Five hundred and thirty-six soldiers stationed at Bisby, Arizona, have subscribed to $479,000 worth of Liberty Bonds. Will the boys in the trenches out-buy us at home? May loyalty forbid. Just a few days remain before the campaign closes. Let it never be said that the fire of patriotism was burning low in the heart of any Negro. The desire of Secretary McAdoo is ours, who when speaking of the flag said: "We want it always on high as a hope for humanity; we want it to be maintained there in order that the rights of our people at home may always have protection that democracy here may be secured." O ye who seek the soul's free air, Who seek the larger hope, arise! For truth and justice do and dare! Who cares to live when Freedom REV, B. C. ROBESON, Pastor A. M. E. Zion Church WHERE TO ENCAMP THE NE GRO TROOPS The outbreak of Negro soldiers at Houston in the latter part of August has caused a sharp division of opinion among some editorial observers on the encampment problem of the Negro. To some Southern editors who protest against having Negroes in cantonments in that section of the country, others reply that the South has always claimed ability to deal best with the Negro, and now is the time for it to prove its claim. The rioting at Houston resulted in the death of seventeen persons and the wounding of a score or more, it will be recalled. Sooner or later the War Department will realize, remarks the Birmingham (Ala.) Ledger, that Negro troops should not be mobilized or trained in the South, and the sooner the better. The Columbia ("S. C.") State is of the opinion that the training of numbers of Negro troops in any Southern district would "cause complications, not only objectionable to the Southern People, but potential in the creation of delays and difficulties in the making of the National Army." Nothing should be allowed to interfere with this great task; says The State, which offers the following suggestion: "About ten per cent of the population of the United States are Negroes, and of these about 80 or 85 per cent live in the South. The distribution of 50,000 or 100,000, or twice so many Negroes in camps at or near Northern cities would cause no inconvenience. New York State now has a regiment of National uard troops composed of Negroes, and their presence excites no resentment. The presence of a dozen regiments of Negroes at the cantonment near Yaphank, on Long Island, would not excite a ripple of protest and the Southern Negroes would not object to going to the North. Why not send them? Why risk the outbreak of unpleasantness in the South when it is not necessary and when the one great object is to raise, equip and train an army with celerity." The Savannah Press confesses regret that Negro troopers should be forced to train in camps where the weather is least suited to them, but it feels convinced that they "would get better-training and discipline at the North—also the North might get M. a little discipline of the sort it needs —for the reason that they would not at the outset be under the impression hat defiance of authority constitutes an assertion of the dignity, which service for the nation gives them." The occurrence at Houston might have been foretold, observes the Savannah News, which believes that the Brownsville affair, during Mr. Roosevelt's Administration, indicated what might happen whenever Negro troops undeterred by the presence of white troops, were encamped at a Southern town. That they should be mobilized in the North is the view of this journal, and "perhaps at such a distance from the nearest community that the chances of trouble between them and the white inhabitants may be reduced to a minimum." Among other dailies that believe Negro troops should not be trained in the South are the Houston Post, the San Antonio-Light, the Vicksburg Herald, and the New Orleans Item and Times-Picayune. In sharp disagreement with their view the Houston Chronicle observes: "To say that the South is so unsafe for Negro soldiers that mutinies are likely to occur if they are brought here is merely another way of saying that our military establishment is unable to enforce discipline and that our soldiers will only be orderly when the civil life suits their ideas and convenience, which is a fine notion to go to France with. "Another condition to be kept in view is the fortunate trait of the Negro's character that instinctively induces him to shield those of his race who commit crime. They not only shield criminals of their race, but take as race antagonism the dealings on the part of courts and law officers with admitted transgressors of the law. "If occasionally a Negro trooper gets infractions, transgresses the ```markdown ``` SURPRISE WEDDING The man friends of Prof. C. A. Biggers of the business college by that name and Mrs. Virginia L. Josephs, were treated to a genuine surprise when it was announced on last Sunday night that at the home of the law, and falls into the hands of a policeman, it must not be made a race matter, because it will not be anything of the sort. "We must all keep in mind, too, the dual obligation on the other side, which can be express in the simple statement that in dealing with the colored troops the white people must be fair and just. "We believe that if this is impress upon officers of the law, street car conductors, and all others with whom the selected colored troops will be most frequently brought into contact, the likelihood of friction will be entirely removed. "In other words, if Negroes and white alike are impress with the fact that we are going to demand and fair treatment, we will have gone a long way toward solving what in other places has proved a mean problem."+From the Scrap Book. ORATION THE TALENT OF SUCCESS' By Jefferson Ammons A Recent Graduate of Bigge's Business College A man's talent is his success, provided, however, the sae he is applied with ambition and genius without thought of fame or honor, for one without the other is bound to end in failure. It is a sad mis take for a man to say he can be what he wills to be. He may have the will, power to erect a mansion and may proceed to build it, though he would succeed for a time, but without his applied talent with ambition and genius, he would sure end in failure. A man might be a successful composer, though he would fail as an executor; he may be a great architect, yet entirely unfit for a surveyor. We find men who have achieved great success; evidently they knew how to accept opportunity when it knocked at their doors. We find men who have made no progress in life. Oh, did they hear opportunity knock? Were they some of those kind of men who, thinking they could be what they will to be and allowed opportunity to pass on unmolested? "Opportunity is coy." It's the lazy, the careless, the slow, the unobservant, who fail to grasp their chances when they are yet at hand, only to look up with a sad thought when they are gone. Now don't stop to think of such things as bad and good luck, for what the unsuccessful man would consider misfortunes and discouraging incidents of life, the ambitious and industrious man would have used for advancements in life. The man that has made the least progress in life is the man who thinks he needs always in which to accomplish nothing, and you can find life's path chocked with such men. The man who finds no idle moments and refuses to surrender his high ideals of life in the midst of crisis is the man usually found at the top of the ladder. He is the man that turns defeat into victory. Experience has taught him that great occasions do not make great men, but they bring them to the front, before the eyes of the public, and that a man never knows his will power until it has been measured up against an enormous obstacle. 1 groom. Rev: A. Lively had performed the ceremony which had made them man and wife, and they have all week been receiving the congratulations of their friends. Only relatives of the bride and groom were present. The happy couple are at home to their friends at 979 E. 32nd St. Abraham Lincoln and Booker T. Washington became famous by great occasions, their will powers being measured up against enormous obstacles. They were from that class of men who could find no idle moments and thus, through ambition and genius they were able to turn what seemed to be defeat, into victory. Well, we might as well say a great many men are being held at the bottom of the ladder on account of the lack of education, for without the same thousands of men fail to see just what is in store for them. More lack of education does not necessarily keep a man down, for there are men famous before the eyes of the public who have had only a scant education. It was ambition and genius that put them in the *A*-cent rank. The Civil Service course just finished by me she been a pleasant study. It has instituted new aspiration It is the laying of the foundation up on which, with the assistance of my instructor, I intend to erase a great fort, to set a mark for those who may Patience is my water word, ambition is my sword and success is my Men, have tac tad good judgment, clear and quick direction, hold your ground and push hard; watch your opportunities, b honest, for you young men who send your evenings smoking cigarettes and telling shady stories with the street corners for your locations, and packing boxes for your chairs, seed not spend much time learning to write bank checks for the charges are a thousand to one you will never have a bank account "Let the words of my mouth and the meation of my heart be acceptabl in thy sight."

The society is very anxious to get in touch with each drafted man and will appreciate very much if they will communicate with the president, Mrs. Warner, 1124 E. 52nd St., or phone South 3124M. This is very important, as the Red Cross Society has much in store for the drafted men. JOHN H. BURGESS PASTOR OF SANTS HOME CHURCH WILL VISIT THROUGHOUT THE EAST Rev. E. R. Driver, the far-famed pastor of the Saints' Home Church, will have on next Monday for an extended trip through the east, during which time he will visit Chicago, Detroit, New York and other cities of the Atlantic Coast. He will preach his good-bye sermon Sunday evening, at which time his friends will give him a royal send off. He will also preach a special sermon Sunday at 11 o'clock. Rev. Driver is the leading exponent of his church in the country and has accomplished wonderful results in this section, and will carry a message worth while to his brethren in the east. Rev. Driver is a staunch friend and booster for the Eagle and on his journey will take subscriptions for the Soaring Eagle. His friends all join in wishing him an enjoyable and prosperous trip. METHODIST MINISTER ALLIANCE PASS RESOLUTIONS EULOGIZING THE LATE REV. W. S.

Greggs, the popular pastor of the Independent church, has returned from a two weeks' vacation during which time, accompanied by Mrs. Greggs and friends, he visited San Diego, Elsinore, Pomona and other points, he reports a most delightful and beneficial trip for both himself and Mrs. Greggs.

Saunders, well known citizen who is wide awake to the issues of the day has returned from an eight weeks' stay in San Francisco where he was employed by the United R. R. Company during the recent strike in that city. Having served through the turbulent demonstrations by the strikers during the past two months, Mr. Sanders relates many thrilling situations during the reign of terror organized by the Union Labor forces of that city, he himself was on duty as a guard and the records show that in that capacity he earned an enviable reputation as a man who absolutely made good. He says that politics played an important part in the said strike, but it proved a boomerang for James Rolph as it has resulted in his being absolutely eliminated from the race for governor, as he has bowed to the call of the roughnecks in organized labor and lost the support-and regard of the substantial citizens. AS A RESULT OF THE WAR After November 1 it will cost more to travel or to ship freight. The railroads, the steamship lines and the jitneys must collect and turn over to the Government a tax of 8 per cent where a passenger fare is over 35 per cent, "not including the amount paid for season tickets for trips less than 38 miles or transportation the fare for which does not exceed 35 cents." The round trip fare to Venice or Long Beach, Redondo or Santa Monica is fifty cents. The passenger will pay the railway 54 cents from Nov. 1 on. The one fare to each of these points is 35 cents and, therefore, no tax will be collected. When you travel, bring your pennies with you. The round trip to Pasadena is 25 cents, so there will be no tax; to Santa Ana it is one dollar, so the passenger will pay $1.08. The result will no doubt be to increase the sale of commutation tickets, which for distances under thirty miles are not taxed. The sale of family commutation tickets will be specially increased. The larger part of the heavy suburban travel in and out of Los Angeles, running into many thousands each day, is within the thirty mile distance. Fares paid on trains or to jitney bus drivers are taxed the same as tickets bought at ticket offices. The penalties are severe for failure to pay up. If a ticket is purchased before Nov. 1 and partly used, no tax will be collected except on mileage and scrip books. When such books are presented on or after Nov. 1 the agent or conductor will collect the tax due. If a ticket is bought before Nov. 1 or thereafter, the tax must be paid before it will be accepted for passage. Commutation tickets purchased and partly used before Nov. 1 will not be taxed, regardless of distance. The tax on shipments is 3 per cent of the freight charges. It applies to railways, steamship lines and motor trucks serving as common carriers in this section. Whoever pays the freight pays the tax. If you ship a carload of orange East and the freight charge is $300 the tax will be $9. Till Then-We Will Wait. Out of God's own earth the first man came; 'Twas Adam, the Good Book says. And, from his own rib came his wife, Eve. Whose life's blood she gave to the world. The white man, the black man, the Indian and all, From their souls were all unfurled. We're all brothers and sisters, since our parents were one; And the same dear Adam and Eve, They reared us, they loved us, they taught us, and oh. Can their teachings be crushed with such ease? As brothers and sisters, can we rob our own Of meagre savings so laboriously earned? Can we loathe, can we can, knock,'' we fight and spurn Our kin and kill him at will? Oh, how can we hang him and chop off his limbs. And slash his heart in things with a smile? And ruthlessly pass them to those standing 'round Who have rushed to this scene for miles. Oh, how can we hang our own kin to a tree, And with bullets his body load? Oh, how can we burn him! Oh, think of the pain! Oh, God! have pity; have mercy—save the world! For on the cross suffered our Lord and King That all mankind might be saved! 'Twas ignorance that caused them to treat Him so; 'Tis thro' ignorance that we are mistreated today. But, in Thine own way, 'tis sweet to know Thou wilt righten all things at Thy Will. We'll keep praying and asking for courage to love Him who seeks our brothers and sisters to kill. 'Whatsoever ye soweth that will ye also reap.' Are we sowing the seeds we would like to reap When the harvest day is here? The seeds of malice, envy and strife Are woful seeds to reap— And those of cowardice, hatred and sin Will bring bitter tears in the end. How much sweeter, then, to sow those seeds That will bring joy, smiles and bliss; Such that will cause the world to rejoice— The seeds of loving kindness. SUSIE JEAN LYNCH, Jacksonville, Ill Spiritually Powerful, She Employs Her Talent for Human Uplift; Fighting Sin in Every Form; Views on Moral Questions Sane and Reasonable. Mrs. Mamie F. Montgomery, a gifted evangelist and devoted worker among children, is just closing a most successful revival service in the Berean Free Seventh Day Adventist Church on West 36th place, in Los Angeles. Mrs. Montgomery is from Birmingham, Ala., where she has conducted a most helpful campaign for the moral betterment of the colored people. She has preached in many of the large centers of population in the Middle West and along the Pacific Coast. She is one of the most forceful and convincing speakers occupying the pulpit in this section of the country and she also eloquent, inspiring, and filled with spiritual power. Since candid, unassuming, she exerts an influence that is bound to inspire confidence. She is of a pleasing personality; and her sermons are rich in Biblical quotations and in epigrams gathered from her own wide experience. Mrs. Montgomery is a graduate of Selma University, where she attained distinction as an exceptional Christian student and high standing in her classes. "She first began to preach at the age of 18 years and has devoted her energies to Christian service ever since. Her work is not confined to any particular denomination, but her broad, liberal views have led her to serve all alike for the making of clean homes and pure individual life. Her slogan is "Personal Purity." She urges everyone to "Keep thyself pure." She has devoted much of her time to the training of children in the thoughts or purity—purity of speech, purity of conduct, purity of deportment, purity in all its phases; and in this work she has had the co-operation of ministers in every denomination wherever she has gone in the various states of the Union. For fully 12 years she has traveled through the country delivering her messages of love and hope and Christian bene diction.

Rev. Byers chose for his text, "According to your faith be it unto you," found in Matthew 9:29. He spoke of the faith that moves mountains, also said that "faith without works is a dead faith" quoting St. James as his authority. He charged all to be a Christian of action, willing to do what you think is right, and what you should do regardless of consequences. This was his first opportunity to be with us and worship at a Sabbath, although this was his third visit to Los Angeles since his transfer. His excuse for not being with us, sooner he explained by quoting Nehemiiah. Nehemiiah, who was building the temple at Jerusalem, said: "I am doing a great work—why should the work stand still while I come down to visit?" His pre-sermonal hymn was 549. A plea for the return of the spirit. Rev. Robeson made a short talk afterward, making Rev. Byers feel at home and commending him for the splendid sermon and his worth to the connection—also said that he was on a mission to make a break for preached for a long time—about a month, and he might preach at the night service. A very liberal collection was offered. Next Sunday at 11 a.m. the pastor will select for a subject "Daniel in the Lion's Den," at 8 p.m. "Don't Be a Slacker."
