PHONE 150-44 VOL. 37 NO FREDERICKS FOR CONGRESS FREDERICKS FOR CONGRESS It remained only for the Republican National Congressional Committee's endorsement to make the party backing of Capt. John D. Fredericks complete. The arrival from Washington of the telegram from the chairman of this committee urging Tenth District voters to get behind the captain served as an added boon to his candidacy. This candidate for congress already had the endorsement of the Executive Committee of the Republican County Central Committee and of the Republican Congressional Committee for the Tenth California District. In spite of opposition claims to the contrary, these endorsements clearly stamp Fredericks as the regular Republican nominee and as such he is entitled to the full support of the party. The fact that so many of the Republican leaders of the district are working for him indicates that his election is virtually assured. Fredericks is undeniably the strong man in the race, but there is such compelling necessity t or return an administration man to Congress that the party leaders deemed ti imperative that the voters concentrate on the man—Fredericks—in order not to let their party strength be too widely split between the four Republicans in the field. An analysis of the record of Capt. Fredericks makes it easy to understand the preference. He is the "big" man, mentally as well as physically, in the field. He is rated as one of the commanding figures in the city, one of the most able leaders in a community noted for its remarkable civic builders. His work during the past ten years has been such as to identify him with the most important projects of Southern California. In his capacity as a civic leader he has carried to fight for improvements to Washington no less than seven times during the last three years, each time with unerring degrees of success. There are two problems of major importance with which the next representative from the Tenth district will have to deal. These are the Boulder Canyon dam and the Los Angeles Harbor projects. The former means the building by the federal government of a project designed to Capt. John D. Fredericks protect the wonderful Imperial Valley from the menace of floods from the Colorado; to provide irrigation facilities sufficient to reclaim more than 2,000,000 acres of land tributary to Los Angeles, and to develop a huge hydroelectric power plant which would take care of the power needs of this section of the Southwest for years to come. The port of Los Angeles problem is just as great as the dam project. Los Angeles is rapidly arriving at the point where it is the dominant port of the Pacific Coast. Its tonnage is growing faster than any port in the world. It will take millions to develop the facilities which must be provided to care for future growth. As an executive of the Chamber of Commerce Capt. Fredericks has been working on these problems for years. Therefore he is intimately acquainted with them. He not only knows by actual experience what Los Angeles needs, but he is big enough to go back to Washington and get results. In the matter of progressive legis- In the matter of progressive legislation, Capt. Fredericks stands as one ELITE TAXI SERVICE LATEST SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS MERGER. The Elite Taxi Service is living up to the promises made two weeks ago when the company was formed by the consolidation of four separate and independent taxi enterprises—namely R. W. Johnson, Robert T. Tanklejey, S. O. Spellman and C. H. Curry. These four well-known taxi men united in a pledge to give the people of Los Angeles and vicinity a larger prompter and more efficient service, and they are living up to that pledge. The patrons of the Elite Taxi Company will now have at their call a Hudson Lmoustine, a Hudson Super-six (touring), a Hudson Sedan and an R. V. Knight, thus making available a 24-hour service. The Elite office is at 1146 Central Ave. Phone Main 1476 or Broadway 1411 from 1:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. where they may be reached any time day or night. They are always on the job and ever at your service. ALL IN READING FOR BIG CONCERT-D-LUXE. CHORUS OF 250 VOICES AT THE PHILHARMONIC AUDITORIUM 5th & OLIVE STS. MONDAY. APRIL 30th.

MCADOO AND BUSSES Editor Eagle: Please publish the enclosed clipping which, during the war, I took from "Chicago Defender" Nov. 30, 1918—when the railroads were under W. G. McAdoo, son-in-law of Woodrow Wilson, king of oligarchy. This clipping is only one of the many indications of his attitude towards us so that if his company be granted the motor bus branch as sought by proposition No. 6, on ballot for Tuesday's election, I fear that the city will suffer the embarrassing conditions of a few years ago, when buses refused to carry our people, humiliating us along the streets. Our people should not be fooled by the fact that "The People's Motor Bus Company" and Proposition No. 6 on the ballot, are supported by a few colored people operating under the name "Colored Citizens' Motorbus Committee", who, I understand are would-be politicians(?) paid by the day to electioneer for the company. I regret that my name appears on this "Colored Citizens" letterhead now being broadcasted from some obscure corner on Central Avenue; and I imagine that most of the people whose names appear on the letterheads, were invigilated as I was: that is, a few weeks ago a lady telephoned me, inquiring whether I favored jitney buses, and on my telling her that I favored them, if properly conducted, she requested the use of my name as one favoring buses. I consented, without any reason to suppose that my reputation for the advocacy for the advancement of all men, should be besmirched by my being published as favoring this McAdoo movement which would give this former Wilson politician more power and opportunity to spread his war-time race prejudice. To let this handful of paid politicians fool us, is a reflection upon real race leadership—a disgrace upon Negro intelligence—and I seize upon this opportunity to rescue my name from this disgrace of being even suggested as being such a tool to crafty politics. During the war, Wilson and his cabinet seemed determined to crush the Negro at home and abroad; and this same McAdoo was Wilson's right guard and main supporter. During my service in first the navy, and later in the army, I felt the pain of their hatred and evil, unfair discrimination. The two sharp edges of their bloody sword of race oppression.

Elk's Annual Picnic Golden West Lodge 86 Admission Including War Tax 55c PHYSICIANS PLEASED WITH PROGRESSIVENESS OF WATTS Page---Two Elk's Admission PHYSICIANS PLEAS SIVENESS Dr. Allensworth, a recent visitor to Watts, thus expresses himself regard ing that enterprising town: "I am surprised to note the beautiful homes that our people are building in Watts. In fact, I can truthfully say that I believe Watts to be the fastest growing little city in California. Among the business places I visited was the Duckett and Spurlock reality offices. It is indeed gratifying to observe the enterprising spirit manifested by those two young women. Since forming partnership about three months ago, they have purchased a lot and erected a substantial building, one section of which is occupied by their offices, the other being leased to Professor Biggers. Messames Spurlock and Duckett are college graduates and former school teachers. The knowledge and training thus acquired is standing them in good stead in business life, and the efficiency and courtesy that characterizes their dealings with the public are winning for them well-deserved patronage and support." REPRINT OF RESOLUTION PASSED BY THE CALIFORNIA DEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATION APRIL 5th "Whereas, the State Constitution of California provides for Legislative reapportionment based on population as shown by the Federal census, and "Whereas, there is now before the State Legislature a measure providing for such reapportionment based on the Decennial census of 1920. "Now therefore it is resolved by the California Development Association that it urge upon the Legislature the importance of compliance with this mandate of the Constitution without further delay. "Be it further resolved that the California Development Association take this occasion to record the belief that there is danger to the future welfare of the State in a Legislature Apportionment plan that might place a preodonderance of Legislative power in the hands of representatives from the great centers of population thus depriving the other sections of the State of an effective voice in representative government. "Therefore be it further resolved that immediately following the reap portionment now made mandatory by the Constitution we strongly urge the presentation to the people of a co-national amendment which shall establish a procedure by which the citizenship and the community interests of all sections of the State may be adequately represented." TAKE NOTICE The Executive Committee of the National Baptist Convention has organized a Board of Promotion and requisitioned Rev. L. G. Jordan from the Foreign Mission Board to direct their $100,000,000 Drive. The plan is to use $50,000.00 to free the convention of debt and to aid the Boards in their work at home and on foreign fields. The other $50,000.00 is to secure the completion of the $300,000.00 building for their Sunday School Publishing Board. There are at least four churches in our Baptist Zion that will give $1,000. to the drive. The Board of Promotion is housed by the B. Y. P. U. Board, 409 Gay Street, Nashville, Tennessee. It ends with the drive, December 1923. All of its work will be done through existing organizations; hence no new machinery. The Boards of the National Baptist Convention are its hands, going into all parts of the home field and in regions beyond, with the message of love and salvation. Their hands are tied with debt, untie them and see how much faster they will "Go ye." The drive is on for the purpose of clearing every debt the convention owes, encouraging and helping our missionaries at home and abroad. A large number of delegates from the National Baptist Convention are planning to sail for Europe, June 30 to attend the World's Baptist Alliance at Stockholm. I am sending this letter as written by Dr. Charles O. Boothe for the Memphis Conference, in order that our brethren might see how one of the old line mark brethren is thinking in respect to our work. This is a suggestive letter. Read it carefully. May it inspire us to be ambitious yet cautious, active yet temperate and labor without getting tired. Chattanooga, Tenn. March 29, 1523. To Dr. L. K. Williams in the Special Meeting in Memphis, Tenn. April 3, and to the dear brethren who may be in conference with him. Dearly beloved leader and yokeflows in the gospel harvest field: I regret that I cannot be with you in body, though in longing and prayer on your behalf. I am with you. I am sick with "Flu" and must therefore say my say in the briefest way possible. I submit for your consideration the following namely: 1. Read John 12:16 and John 14:15 qnnoqn se 14 qn se pru qn se qn se pru Jesus stood in your meeting and uttered to you the language of verses named. They are as true in his absence as in his presence. Indeed, he is not absent. "Le. I say: with you to the end of the age." 2. The incorporation of the mother body, the Convention, makes this body, that is, the Convention responsible for all its different agencies. That is to say, where these assuade If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE---You May Never Know It Happened liabilities they do so for the mother body and the mother body can be held legally responsible, except some provision or special act of the mother body shall hold boards, within carefully defined limits, "A hint for the wise is sufficient." 3. Your Publication Board and your Home and your Foreign Mission Boards should have safety at this hour, the beginning hour of our denomination (since we let the first bird out of the cage); for these Boards are your "underpinning" your pillars. Lay your mightiest hand to your printing plant. It is supremely missionary in its purpose and operations as well as a basic force on all sides. 4. The Conventional session in Los Angeles should have a program which ajars gates upon new visions of duty, of opportunity, of organization and push. Indefinite, uncertain men and movements should be replaced and have their talents or pounds of trust given to others who can put things to the exchange. May God bless you with great freedom of soul to push into a forward look. Your humble brother in Him who loved us unto death. (Signed Charles O. Boothe. TO THE PUBLIC Adopting cheap, political tactics certain people have been busy circulating the report that Wood Wilson had sold out to the Cryer forces. I take this method of informing the public that I. Wood Wilson, hold my vote and influence sacred. I never take up a man or measure without careful consideration and when I have once taken a stand I stay. At the beginning of the campaign I took up the candidacy of Bert L. Farmer because I considered Mr. Farmer the logical candidate. I am still of that opinion. I am standing first, last and all the time for the man of my choice. Bert L. Farmer. (Signed) WOOD WILSON.

Where to Attend Church LINCOLN MEMORIAL CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH 34th Street and Central Avenue. .. Rev. E. E. Lightner, Pastor. Two good services were held at this church the past Sunday. The Pastor filled the pulpit at both hours, using as his morning theme "Strong in the Lord." At the evening hour the subject was: "Christ's Part: Our Part." A large number of visitors were noted in the audience. Plans were launched in a campaign for A greater "Lincoln Memorial." The membership of the church was divided up into ten Circles for service, under as many leaders or Captains. The Annual Rally was set for July 29. The slogan is every member a worshipper and worker. This Sunday April 29th The Pastor will preach at the morning hour. In the evening the Monthly musical program will be rendered. You are cordially invited to worship with us at all times. On the sick list for this time. On the sick list for this week is Mrs. Genoa Quinn. We are glad to report that she is much improved. WALL ST. CHRISTIAN CHURCH— 33rd and Hooper Ave. Rev. M. Frederick Mitchell, Pastor. We had unusual interesting and inspiring services last Sunday. The pastor brought two rare treats—discourses upon the subject "Man's Extremity is God's opportunity." At night, "Church Inspection." Quite a few visiting friends joined us in each service. Our choir is enthusiastic in the preparation for a unique Mother's Day program. Also children's program "The Crowning of Queen of May." A large number of girls are in the quest to win queenship. Each of these programs is under the management of Madame Viola Harris Brandon. Special services at our church next Sunday. An invitation is extended to all of our friends to join us in our services at 33rd and Hooper Avenue. BETHEL CHURCH OF CHRIST—HOLINESS— Hooper and Adams Street. Sunday was a big day at Bethel being special rallyady for the removing of the building that we might have ample room for those that want to worship God in the beauty of holiness. A special appeal was made to the membership and friends to help in this worthy cause. The pastor occupied the pulpit in the morning scripture lesson St. Luke 11:1-13. Text was found in Matt. 11:28-30. Subject "Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest." This invitation was extended by the pastor to everyone regardless of condition; the poor in body and spirit, the rich and friendless, widows and orphans, all were invited-to accept of this invitation and rest for the soul is offered and peace for the mind. The conditions are that you bring your self and offer it. Don't stop to clean up just as you are. At the close of this invitation some came to be prayed for and 3 united with the church. the evening sermon preached by the pastor for the 1 Cor. 2:2. Everybody welcome. Mt. ZION BAPTIST CHURCH— Rev.

Hudson, Supt. of Christian Missionary Society, preached an excellent sermon at the conclusion of which one came forward and made the good confession.

NINTH AND HEMLOCK Our Recognition Service Wednesday Evening the 18th, was attended with a surprise on the Devil, and a victory for the Lord's cause. The Room was fairly filled with the Delegates form EIGHT CHURCHES which took part in the deliberations. Of the 17 Ministers present, Eight came with two or more Officers of their Churches. The Rev. Mr. Wade presided with his usual wisdom and good common sense. After examination of our man- ner of Organization and Articles of Faith, The Council voted unanimously, that The Bethel Church was a free, regular and independent Baptist Church. We had splashed services all day last Sunday. At 11:00 o'clock our brother Rev. Mr. Skinner preached a most excellent sermon for us, and at Night the Pastor occupied the Palm. We preach Jesus Christ and Him crusified. Come with us and we will do thee good. Come praying for a blessing. H. D. Prowd, Pastor. WARD CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH—1252 East 25th Street. Rev. R. B. Guy, Pastor The services at this church last Sunday were very commendable. The Sunday School well attended and the interest splendid. The pastor spoke to a large congregation of visitors and members at the morning service from the text. "Therefore we ought to take the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we let them slip." One person joined at the morning service. At 3:30 p. m. The Helping Hand Club rendered an interesting program in commemoration of their Second anniversary, which was highly appreciated by the vast audience present. The Endeavor was omitted last Sunday for the first time this year. At night Rev. William Prince of Pasadena preached from the text, "It is good for us to be here, let us make here three tabernacles." The sermon was spiritual and impressive and the mixed assembly gave strict attention to it. One person united with the Church at this service. Come again. Rev. PRINCE. WESLEY CHAPEL Rev. A. P. Shaw, Pastor What we do in this moral, economic and domestic crisis was fervently told by the pastor in his sermon Sunday morning. It seemed to be the unanimous opinion of his hearers that it was one of the most timely chosen, and effectively delivered sermons yet preached by the pastor. With him was the most excellent music by the choir and organist. Facing him was a congregation such as would furnish inspiration for any sermon, and the pastor took apt advantage of it all. The evening services were conducted by Dr. J. L. Cortley. The usual song service by the choir and music by Mrs. Markham accompanied the occasion. The young people's meeting conducted by Mr. H. W. Markham started with a boom and seemed indicative of much success. Next Sunday the brotherhood will conduct the morning services at which time the pastor will offer another of his scholarly sermons. FIRST A. M. E. ZION CHURCH—Cor. Pico and Paloma Streets. Rev. W. E. Shaw, Pastor—Residence 1217 Paloma Avenue. Rev. W. E. Shaw, pastor will occupy the pulpit at Zion both morning and evening Sunday April 29th. These sermons preached by Rev. Shaw from one Sunday to another are inspirational and full of the kind of gospel we need. Last Sunday morning the pastor preached a fine sermon that stirred every heart. The Text was found in St. Luke 10:29 verse: "But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, and who are my neighbors?" Sunday evening Rev. Cothran preached another forceful gospel sermon. The text was found 1 John 3 chapter 2 verse. Rev. Cothran brought to our minds the great as- surance of God's wonderful promise. The choir rendered excellent music all day also the Bible class and Varick Christian Endeavor Societies held interesting meetings. Sunday afternoon April 29 the Y. W. H. and F. M.

Everywhere the native population is deprived of the soil, which is handed over to the colonists, among whom the loot is divided by way of concessions, according to the influential connections they may have. it is appalling to read the record of the French Chamber of Representatives on this subject, of Nov. 24, 1911. Without being contradicted the representative Lagrossilliere said: "All this injustice is capped by the worst wrong of all, the driving out of the natives to the border of the desert as a consequence of their property being condemned. Reminders Are in Vain. The vair have prominent scientists in Tunis, reminded the French Government time and again that in his answer to Russia it proclaimed as object of the war.

THE ATLAS OIL SYNDICATE Wish to announce that they will, in the very near future, have for popular subscription a limited number of units at a par value of fifty dollars each. THE ATLAS OIL SYNDICATE is headed by men who have for many years been prominently identified with oil production, both in Southern California and elsewhere. The Syndicate has succeeded in securing a lease in the heart of what is known as the western extension of the Signal Hill Oil Field. From wells now drilling and wells already on production, it is believed that some of the largest flowing wells so far in the Signal Hill Oil Field will be discovered in this district. You all know Mr. Sidney Preston Dones, of the S. P. Dones Company, Incorporated. Mr. Dones, before [Name] CHARLES A. BIGGERS, A. M.

V bered, Clemenceau as President of the Council made this remark in the public: France has incorporated in her demands the independence of the oppressed people." He added, "Their fate will be arranged according to the laws of humanity and justice, laws that are superior to the ones now in existence. During the war the population of Algeria had to put up 300, 000 combatants. For a long time the French government was reluctant to give the exact number of casualties. Whether it has been done in the past two years I do not know. But in Tunis they figured it out for themselves. Tunis puts its quota at 100,000 soldiers among them 70,000 combatants. Of these 70,000 30,000, that is almost half—were killed which as a rule is an un-heard of proportion. You may draw your own conclusions' as in the Algerian losses. Always Took the Shock. As every one knows the non-French troops had always to meet the first murderous onslaught. That was perfectly natural. As a matter of course they were less dear to French headquarters than their own country mech and free of charge. So were the high- Kindly watch for additional information contained in our message to you in the next edition of this paper (An Institution of Modern Methods, Established 20 years ago) The German headquarters acted in the same way. During the war, there were killed at least as many lads from Northern Schleswig as were killed in whole Danish army in 1864. And the French were not fighting shy by any means. They themselves gave their losses up to November 1918 as 1,385,000 dead and missing, 694,000 maimed and 446,000 then still in captivity. Still what the French lost is out of proportion to what the Arabs lost. When the African troops embarked, Mr. L'Admiral, member of the Municipal Council and Chairman of the Bar Association made a speech at the Government building of Algeria, which speech may be called tragicomical: You go forth now! Side by side with your French comrades, side by side with our dear calles, in an army, where: no distinction is made as to race or origin you will pay France the debt of gratitude you owe her. Soldiers when you have done your duty, rest assured that all special legislation, all measures caused by suspicion, all that might appear as humiliation or depreciation of your dignity as human beings will be abrogated and removed." The promise was kept lending his name or becoming in any way connected with this venture, made a thorough study and investigation as to the management of the ATLAS OIL SYNDICATE, the reliability of the men associated with same, and their ability to make the ATLAS OIL SYNDICATE a huge success. Mr. Dones also investigated the ATLAS OIL SYNDICATE lease, and assured himself that same was as near a certainty to produce oil as it was humanly possible to foresee. Mr. Dones will act as the ATLAS OIL SYNDICATE Representative at their branch office, 1720 Central Avenue, and we feel sure will be only too pleased to go into further detail and give you additional information pertaining to the Syndicate.

Many houses, in the path of the tornado which was estimated to be twenty yards wide, were wrecked. A courtier on horseback rode wildly into Thibodeaux soon after daylight and told of the destruction. Sheriff Stark went to the scene and reported conditions at Lafourche as extremely grave. Physicians and hundreds of others left here for the village carrying supplies and medicine.

WHY? H. Z. OSBORNE OF COURSE! First and above all his devotion to the interests of the plain, common, every-day, average man and woman is unquestioned. His long and signal service in their behalf is a part of the History of the 10th Congressional District. All peoples without regard to race, color or creed have had his willing service in their behalf. While he is the son of his illustrious father and a chip off the old block, he has made his niche in the progressive affairs of this great city and endeared himself to the people thereof. Being no high powered attorney he will have no particular big interests to serve, but with hands free and a willing heart, his whole great 10th Congressional District. Observance of The Golden Rule as a guide in problems of race, is one of the planks in the platform of H. Z. Osborne, Jr. He stands squarely where his father stood and promises a strong support for The Dyer Anti-Lynching bill. Mr. Osborne is pledged to the same broad policies and untiring, sympathetic effort for the individual, district, state and nation that won for the late Congressman Osborne the approving vote of 99 per cent of the voters, regardless of party. He has been a resident of Los Angeles for 40 years, half of which have been given unselfishly to the city's service as engineer in the Board of Public Utilities. He has personally superintended the designing of over $35,000,000 worth of public improvements. Like his father, he will work in Congress for ample Federal aid to meet destined demands of the harbor, and for fair and prompt legislation for soldiers, sailors and their dependents. Speaking before an enthusiastic meeting of the South Main Street Improvement Association recently, he pointed out that co-operation of the government in civic affairs was one of the prime essentials to the progress of Los Angeles as a city. "The future development of Los Angeles is tied up with the development of the harbor and the Colorado River project," he declared. "Both are essentially engineering problems. "All development at the harbor such as the construction of jetties, breakwaters, wharves and terminal facilities, are engineering problems. They must be designed and their cost estimated by skilled engineers. "It is on the reports that the public bases its decision to spend money for such public improvements as these, that will benefit the city. "In the Colorado River project, we find another distinct engineering problem. The development of that project, which is designed to help reclaim thousands of acres of arid land in the Imperial Valley and to furnish power to Southern California, will depend largely upon its sensible presentation to Congress by an engineer. "With added power resources and harbor facilities, more industries will locate here, which in turn will give employment to thousands more people. "It is the duty of every man who works, to vote for a man for Congress, who can present engineering data in a clear, concise manner. People for years have been sending attorneys to Congress, but making laws is not all that body does. It must appropriate money as well, for all projects calling for federal aid. "Who knows better whether the public is getting value received for its money, than an engineer who is in full possession of data relative to construction costs?" Mr. Osborne is president of the Los Angeles chapter, American Association of Engineers, and executive head of the Los Angeles Traffic commission. He is also a member of the American Society of Civil Engineers, the chamber of commerce and the Union League. He is an honorary member of the United Veterans, and belongs to numerous Masonic, Fraternal and civic organizations. Page-Five OVER 3000 PEONS FLOGGED IN YEAR IN FLORIDA Civilized World Stands Aghast at Daily Revelations of Southern Bar- barism. Many Whippings Unreported. 42 Bloodbounds In Packs Kept at Various Camps to Run Down Any Who Try to Escape. Tallahassee, Fla., April 25—The estimate that 1,000 prisoners, black men and white, were whipped with the lash in Florida last year is extremely conservative. It was indeed, conservative. Investigators since making that statement, have completed tabulation of the daily reports made in writing to the State Commissioner of Agriculture, in whose department is included the supervision of prisoners, by the three prison supervisors, whose duty it is to inspect county road camps, as well as State Road camps. —EVERY ONE WHIPPED—This tabulation shows: The number of whippings administered to both State and county road camp prisoners leased to private companies in Florida during January, Feruayda nrcMaotsA January, February and March of this year was 617. One of the prison supervisors making these reports made a marginal notation to the effect that where the "whipping boss" admitted having whipped four prisoners, the prisoners themselves asserted he had whipped twelve. Taking only the minimum figure, 617 for the least three months, the number of whippings administered during the last twelve months to prisoners in Florida is conservatively estimated at 3,000. On an average of 250 men are whipped each month. These records show that in all the various camps during the last three months there were 2,002 prisoners, of whom thirty-five were women, all Negroes. Of the 1,967 male prisoners, 1,472 were Negroes and 495 were white. The 2,468 whippings reported were divided among 1,967 men. Almost every prisoner, it seems reasonable to assume from these figures, was whipped at least once. Incidentally, at twenty of these twenty-six camps forty-two blood hounds were kept to pursue prisoners who attempted to escape. The records show that punishment with the whip was more frequent at the State read camps than at the county road camps. Among 1,024 male prisoners at the State camps, 326 whippings were distributed in three months, an average of one flogging for every third man. Among the 768 male prisoners in the county camp 197 whippings were distributed, an average of one to every four. In behalf of the West Florida Naval Stores Company, the whipping boss, A. Johnson, administered thirty-two floggings in three months among prisoners. Of this camp the Prison Supervisor, T. B. Jones writes plaintively: "I think the punishment in this camp was too great and I spoke to the captain about it. Still there was not any complaint. He said they were getting along right and have plenty to eat." Gov. R. A. Nestos of North Dakota yesterday appointed Judge W. K. Keenshaw and State Attorney G. Grimson of North Dakota to be Assistant Attorneys General to represent the State at the legislative investigation being made by the State of Florida into the death of Martin Tabert and to present evidence before the legislative committee. The appointment was received here today. TAFT IS ON TRUST PAYROLL Hearst Papers Exposure Create Sensation in 'National Capital. (Crusader Service) Washington, April 25.—"A profound impression" is the best description of the effect here of the astounding disclosure in the Hearst Sunday newspapers that Chief Justice Taft is the recipient of an income of $10,000 a year from the Carnegie Corporation of New York. Chief Justice Taft himself sent out word from his home in Wyoming Avenue that there was nothing he desired to state. However, it is considered unlikely his friends will fail to counteract the general sentiment that the Carnegie annuity is an impropriety for the head of the highest and most impartial and unbi- ased court of law in the world. Fess Fears For Court Upon the heels of this disclosure, Senator Simeon D. Fess, of Ohio, a staunch adherent to the Harding Administration, makes public a letter in which he expresses apprehension as to the fate of hte United States Supreme Court in view of the rising popular feeling against its five to four decisions. For obvious reasons, public men are hesitant about discussing Mr. Taft's Carnegie Income, which is derived from $200,000 five per cent Steel Trust bonds. However, a public man of high position and influence, ably presented the general viewpoint when he said today: "Let Nation Pay." It was bad enough when Mr. Carnegie had his corporation pensioning expresidents who retired into private life. The United States ought to pay its highest executive enough money so that he is beyond the need of a pension. If he has to have one, the people of the United States are capable of raising the money to give him one. Perhaps it is best for Congress to provide a pension for every retiring President, who can refuse it if he desires. It is an impertinence for the Carnegie Corporation or any other corporation to have him on its payroll, and it lowers the dignity of the President and of the United States as well. "The situation passes the bounds of impertinence when an Ex President re-enters public life and continues to be paid by such a corporation. If still in receipt of a large income from the Carnegie Corporation, he is in a position not very difficult from the position he would occupy if he were given a Carnegie income while in office. I wonder if Chief Justice Taft, after being appointed to his present high office, would have allowed the Carnegie Corporation to begin paying him $10,000 If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened THE MEMORIAL OF THE MAYOR OF BOSTON, MA.

The 9,600 white settlers are holding many meetings at which menacing language is freely used. The trouble has been brewing for years. In addition to the whites, Kenya is populated by some 36,000 Indians and 2,500,000 Negroes. Many Indians were there before the Union Jack-smybol of the imperialistic plunderers,—and the Indians there now have been agitating unceasingly for adequate representation in the councils of the colony, the executive and the legislative. Particularly since India was admitted to the Imperial Conference, have the Indian settlers of Kenya demanded full rights with the whites including the franchise. Their claims are opposed by the white settlers who have been angered by what they condemn as the vacillating policy of Downing Street in refusing to back the colonising while plunderers to the hilt of the imperialistic sword. The white settlers believe that the White Settlers Object White Settlers Object, Government of India has supported the Kenya Indians in their demands to be treated as British subjects regardless of color, which in practice means: 1. The right to buy land without segregation. 2. The common franchise with certain qualifications, and 3. No racial discrimination in immigration. They also allege that the situation in India has influenced the Colonial Office to offer Indian settlers a compromise only slightly less than their demand. The white settlers have refused to, entertain the Colonial Office schemes, and to this the Indians rejoined that they would bargain no further. Thereupon it was decided to send a white deputation from Kenya to London, accompanied by Sir Robert Corydon, the governor. An Indian deputation from Kenya and another from India are also going to Downing Street. India is watching events closely and will be affected, deeply which ever way the matter is disposed of. FRENCH HOLD ALGERIANS IN SLAVERY Natives Are Being Forced Into the Desert Away From Their Cultivated Lands French Promises Made Only To Be Broken. Great Things Were To Be Doe for Africans After World War In Which They Were Used As Shock Troops. NEW YORK, April 25.—Georg Brandes, famous Danish critic writing in the New York World of April evil results of the French imperialism in North Africa. Says Mr. Brandes: "At a congress held in 1907 in Paris by the "League for the Rights of Man" (La Ligue pour les Droits de l'Homme) Moutet said of the conditions in Algeria. "We are keeping the country in a state of slavery and subjugation. There is no equity before the law." And Aulard the famous historian of the French Revolution, exclaimed without arousing contradiction—"We are less liberal than the Turks. You may rest assured of that! That gives us an example of liberal attitude!" "When the political weathercock, Gustave Herve, wanted to attack the state of affairs and wrote that France, complaining so bitterly of the oppression of Alsace-Lorraine, should be as ashamed of oppressing North Africa even worse; he added by way of an excuse that Alsace, in 1871 had had a strong feeling of independence, while the Arabs of North Africa were an undeveloped mass without feeling of nationality. "To this the Franco-Arabian press very aptly replied: "Algeria and Tunis always were one country, they have a population of 7,000,000 of uniform race, uniform language and uniform religion. Both countries under Ottoman rule had full autonomy. In 1830 France began the conquest of Algeria. For forty years we fought under Abdel-Kader until we were overcome by the odds of the enemy. And then the enemy started a rule of injustice, violence, humiliation and constant terror. Compelled to Pay Tribute Still. "After almost a century, Algeria is still being treated as a subjugated province, is still compelled to pay the contribution of war to the victor, it has no legally secure status, no privilege, no liberty, but plenty of obligations among others compulsory army service. "In 1881, under a pretext hardly to be taken seriously, French troops invaded Tunis, were ordered by the despicable, but then extensively rude Minister Barthelemy to stop half a mile from Bardo and through a messenger submitted to the Bey an ultimatum compared with which the Austrian ultimatum to Serbia is humane. They submitted to the Bey a treaty of subjugation. In case he would not sign in two hours Tunis was to be placed under heavy gun fire. He signed. The people took up arms. The country was conquered. On the boulevard of the city of Tunis is to be seen a group carved in stone that appeals to sentiment: A French boy lovingly teaching an Arab lad how to read. We may call this an amiable joke. It has never happened in reality. The Arabian language has been replaced everywhere, in the Central Administration, in the police, in the medical service. With an exception of a few interpreters all officials in Tunis are Frenchmen. Arabian Children Barred. "Every European child there received free school training, but no Arabian child does. Of 150,000 pupils only 3,500 are therefore taught free of charge. Of the whole population of the country only 2 percent are receiving free elementary schooling in French. At the time of independence elementary schooling was in Arabian er courses in the Sadiki College. Since the protectorate was estab- (Continued on Page 5)
