California Eagle

Candidates Are Starting Hot Pace in the Big Calif. Eagle Prize Campaign ESTABLISHED 1879 LEADING RACE JOURNAL THE LARGEST AND BEST PHONE CALIFORNIA EAGLE PEOPLES FORUM ~ SUNSHINE ~ FLOWERS ~ OPPORTUNITIES FOR PROGRESS FOR UPLIFT ALL MEN UP— NO MAN DOWN TELEPHONE: 829-244 A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL $2.00 THE YEAR VOLUME 37 LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, NOVEMBER 2, 1923 NO. 28 THE NEXT THREE WEEKS ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE'S CAMPAIGN The bars are down, the track is clear—the race for The California Eagle's prizes, aggregating $4,000.00, has now begun. Headed by that fine, brand new $1,795.00 Reo Phaeton Automobile, the list of awards is attracting the eye of all Los Angeles and vicinity. Second only to the extraordinary value of the rewards is the signal honor and glory that will go to the proud winners. In truth, there is no way that an active candidate can lose, for, in accordance with the rules, every active participant will be paid for every minute of their odd moments used. "EVERYBODY WINS." Proof of the popularity of The Eagle's liberal offer is the increasing interest that is being shown daily. SEVERAL CANDIDATES NOMINATED Although several people have been nominated, it will be seen by the vote standings, which are shown on page 9 that there is plenty of room for more "live wires" to enter the campaign. More votes have been cast by friends of the candidates for their favorites than most of those nominated have secured themselves. Those nominated have each been notified. It is expected that these will be heard from in the next day or so and interest increased in the race. ALSO, CANDIDATES WHO HAVE BEEN NOMINATED AND WHO ALREADY HAVE VOTES TO THEIR CREDIT ARE EXPECTED TO CALL THE EAGLE OFFICE, $22 CENTRAL AVE., PROMPTLY. Failing to report either by telephone or in person will mean that the names will be withdrawn and the votes canceled. And, right here, we want to remind readers again that votes cannot be transferred from one candidate to another. In view of the fact that every active candidate in accordance with the rules is guaranteed either a cash award or one of the bigger prizes, it is necessary for every candidate to get in touch with the campaign manager immediately. Failing to do so means that they automatically forfeit all rights to a big prize or a cash award and the votes will forthwith be canceled. This is fair warning. MORE VOTES GIVEN NOW Right now you get 15,000 votes for Eagle (for your first subscription you tuition you get 35,000 votes; a three-year four-year subscription entitles you to give you 300,000 votes and a ten-year votes.

EUGENE M. CANADAY Among the young men on the Pacific Coast who have been successful in attaining the title Doctor of Dental Surgery, we find in the person of Mr. Eugene M. Canaday, a young dentist who is daily proving to the Los Angeles public that he is a Master of his profession. The young doctor's idea of the Dental profession is not the get-rich-quick idea, but he is a firm believer in super service for a reasonable pecuniary consideration. Dr. Eugene M. Canaday knows dentistry and knows that he knows dentistry and you may rest assured that any of his patients will indorse the same. Dr. Canaday specializes in that which is known to the Dental profession as conductive anesthesia and to the public as the art of Painless Dentistry. That part of the public that visit dentists demand that the dentist be as easy as possible. Few dentists profess to be painless, but the young Dr. Eugene M. Canaday is proving to the Los Angeles public that his special training in the modern science of Painless Dentistry has enabled him to be a master of his profession. Patients who have gone through successful operations of painless dentistry certainly appreciate the fact that it was painless. --- MRS. M. G. PATTON Mrs. Patton is one of the most enthusiastic candidates in the Eagle's big Campaign, She has built up a large clientele as a fashionable dress-maker. MAKES PITHY COMMENTS ON BUSINESS CONDITIONS IN EAST AND MIDDLE WEST. M. J. H. Shackelford, well known merchant and retailer, has returned to Los Angeles after an eventful Eastern trip, during the course of which he made stops at Denver, Kansas City, St. Louis, Chicago, Des Moines and Omaha. While the trip was for pleasure, pleasure and business are closely akin, if not synonymous, in the opinion of his progressive citizen, and he made a close study of business conditions in the various places he visited. "St. Louis and Chicago lead in racial business activity," said Mr. Shackelford, "but in neither of those cities is the home life in keeping with the wealth accumulated or energy extended. Taking into consideration the age, size and number of Negroes, there is no Eastern city which compares with Los Angeles, as regards ideal home life and living conditions. "In Chicago, for instance, numbers of the group are acquiring large flat buildings, under heavy obligations; but for the most part they are old structures, and two years from now will be liabilities, rather than assets. "Moreover, all the large Eastern cities have slum or tenement districts, which is not the case in our own Los Angeles. "In none of the Eastern centers did the undertaking establishments begin to compare, in beauty and modernness with those we have here. The churches are, in the main, old edifices that white people have discarded, as it were. There are no new and modern church structures built by our group. "So far, as theatrical enterprises go, I found one motion picture ture theatre, owned and managed by Negroes—in St. Louis. In all other cases, there was the white man in the background. There appeared to be a lamentable lack of race confidence, manifested in most places, which has a decided tendency to discourage race enterprise." Mr. Shackelford also dilated upon the fact that the Negroes are deserting the agricultural field completely, and congregating in the large cities. In certain rural and small town districts in Southwest Iowa, there were not enough race people in the entire county to maintain one church. As an example of the signal success which comes with race solidarity, Mr. Shackelford pointed to Chicago, where, as all who keep abreast of race politics and economics know, there are three Colored assemblymen, with strong prospect of electing a state senator and a municipal judge. a state school and an urban jungle, in all the principal cities. Visited Mr Shackelford was struck by the difficulties encountered by race members in attempts to acquire real property for residence purposes. In short, while living conditions are not perfect anywhere, but there exists a more favorable combination of circumstances, climatic, political and economic, conducive to an ideal home life and prosperity, in our own Southern California, than in other sections of the country.

The snow flakes will soon deluge these United States and once more we shall be fast in the grip of Jack Frost. These Negroes who have taken advantage of the period of comparative economic prosperity and had something by in anticipation of the arrival of a movement named Jack Frost, will not view with alarm his coming. But how about those "good time" brothers and sisters who haven't missed a picnic, dance or party, who have gone on long automobile rides in rented cars; who have hired a taxi every time they had four blocks to go; who have kept up with the latest styles and fashions? Have they the wherewith to satisfy the landlord, the grocer and the coal man when the inevitable period of unemployment again grips the country? Can they afford to be out of a job for one month, two months, or three months? Unemployment, dreaded by employer and employee alike, is a periodically recurrent phenomenon. It is as certain as arrive as the seasons of the year. We produce the necessaries and luxuries of life at a feverish speed for a certain period. Then we find the goods piling up. There is not enough money in the hands of potential purchasers to buy back the tremendous volume, of goods produced. Not being able to sell what they already have on hand, manufacturers curtail or cease production. Less employees are required. The superfluous are discharged in accordance with sound business policy. Those astute individuals who have foreseen this contingency and placed their hard earned money in the bank are well equipped to weather the storm. But what of the brothers and sisters who have derisively announced: "I'm gonna have a good time while I can," and "We ain't Gonna live but once?" As long as the folks have a job, all is well. But what of the time when the job has departed? Will they have a supply of the monetary water when the economic well runs dry? Poverty, Pool and Polytechnics In every large American city, especially in the north and east, are dozens of night and day schools where young men for a very small tuition fee, can prepare themselves to be proficient plumbers, electricians, plasters, bricklayers, machinists, telegraphers, surveyors, draftsmans, architects, linotypers, and dozens of other highly skilled trades. Some of these schools are free. A couple of hours each evening for six months or a year are sufficient to fit an intelligent young man to work at one of these trades. For instance, the tuition fee at a certain linotyping school is $150. Young men can prepare for the average trade listed above for less than $100. These schools should be crowded with Negroes. Instead we find most of our young men growing humpbacked over pool tables or sampling the local brand of synthetic gin. Pool is perfectly alright as a diversion but not as a deity. As a young man grows proficient in running fifteen balls off the table with a few skillful strokes, he finds it more difficult to get anyone to play with him. Pool balls are notoriously indigestable. On the other hand, the more skilled a man becomes as a workman, the more valuable he is and consequently the more desirable to an employer. The higher skilled he becomes, the more wages he can demand and receive. It should be perfectly obvious that polytechnics are far more profitable than pool—except to the proprietor of the pool-room. Civilization is control over the natural resources. The greatest civilization is that having the greatest control over its environment. The people who are the real foundation of our intricate machine civilization are the skilled workers. The key people in any modern industrial country are those with the greatest knowledge of the industrial arts. This is real economic power. If the Negro would become a greater power in the United States he must gain economic power—the directive force of every modern nation, the backbone of every ancient empire. The way to power lies through polytechnics. The way to poverty through pool. Many will protest that if they spend money and prepare for such work they will not be able to get employment or to join a union. This conclusion is based on faulty reasoning. Labor is a commodity like iron, is in glass or iodine. It is the indispensable factor in production. Like other commodities it is subject to the law of supply and demand. When there is a large supply of iron, its price is low. When iron is scarce its price is high, whether the scarcity be natural or artificial. Precisely the same thing holds true of laboring power. When there is a large supply of carpenters, their wage is small. When carpenters are scarce, their wage, or price, is high, whether the scarcity be natural or artificial. This is true throughout the entire labor field. Now iron is iron. An employer needing the commodity, iron, is not concerned whether the iron was mined by Chinese, Poles, Siberians, Negroes or Irishmen. He wants iron, in sufficient quantities at the cheapest price obtainable. The same thing is true of labor skilled or unskilled. The employer needs, say: 250 carpenters, 75 ironworkers, and 25 cement finishers. He is first concerned with the price of these skilled laborers. It is to his interest to pay the lowest wage, just as he pays the cheapest price he can get for iron, cement, lumber, etc. The larger the supply of any commodity, including laboring power, the more favorable to the employer. The smaller the supply of any commodity, including laboring power, the more favorable to the employees. This explains why most unions, openly or clandestinely, exclude Negroes, especially those organizations of the skilled workers. Not solely because they are Negroes, but because they wish to discourage people entering these trades in order to keep the supply of their particular labor scarce. Naturally racial differences are of great assistance. Of course, the unions are powerful and the employers do not antagonize them unless there is a likelihood of being able to carry on without them. That explains why employers are loath to employ Negro skilled workmen and women when they are in small numbers. However.

Hogue, well known for her organization work in Los Angeles is a new entry in The Eagle's Campaign. Mrs. Hogue starts off under very auspicious conditions and those who are going to help her say that she is sure to sland the big $1,795.00 Reo automobile. A new nomination this week is Miss Thelma Porter. An enthusiastic worker is Mrs. Callie Brookins. She will be coming to the front soon with a vengeance. Mrs. E. C. Buckner reports that she is getting her campaign organized with a view to "bringing home the bacon." Miss Viola Crawford will prove to be one of The Eagle's "live ones." Mrs. J. A. Allen is crowding her way forward in a way that shows she means business. Consistent results count. Dr. A. L. Brown, San Diego, Cal., is a new nomination and San Diego is assured of having a real "live" representative in The Eagle's race. Friends of Mrs. G. Gillespie predict that she will be the fortunate one when the judges announce their decision. Mrs. Virginia Corry, of Pasadena is finding plenty of time from her many duties to add to her already good vote score. Miss Eunice Roan has plenty of friends to count on to help her in The Eagle's campaign. It must be encouraging to see friends taking such an active part as is the case with Mrs. R. M. Banks' supporters. Mrs. T. J. Norris reports real success in her early efforts. Mrs. A. C. Richardson has an active army of supporters who are determined that she shall be the Reo Phaeton winner. Miss Cynthia Hill is a "go-getter" when it comes to adding to her vote score. A popular society girl is Miss Oleander Donaldson and she is facing excellent prospects in The Eagle's campaign. Mrs. M. G. Patton has the right idea in putting forth her best efforts now while the big vote schedule is n. effect. Very soon now the number of votes given for each subscription will be REDUCED. Another candidate who is taking full advantage of these "Big Vote" days is Mrs. Mabel Turner. Mrs. S. D. Scaggs is a hustling candidate who will always give a good account of herself. Mrs. Augusta C. McCallister, prominent leader in church work and the First A. M. E. Church circles, was the beneficiary last week to the extent of several thousand votes, due to the activities of her friends. One who has big plans for her campaign is Mrs. Chas. B. Dones of Redlands, Cal. Marysville's candidate, Mrs. Wm. McTrent is getting them lined up on her side and rumors reaching campaign headquarters indicate that she will soon be making a big showing. Miss Naomi Turnage seems to have no trouble in getting the votes. Los Angeles' popular modiste. Mrs. Isaac Johnson is fortunate in having a number of friends "plugging" for her to win the Reo Phaeton. Mrs. T. A. Thornton is getting a dandy start as, her vote score shows. Mrs. B. Highbaugh's vote score shows the result of her good work the past few days. Mrs. Anna McGee reports that she is getting started in good shape. Mrs. E. Chism has a number of promises that will soon mean a lot more votes to her. Mrs. Charlotte Kimbrough is getting her campaign organized successfully and big results may be expected from her efforts. One of the real "live wire" candidates in The Eagle's big campaign is EAGLE—TWENTY-FOUR Mr. Nach-D. Thompson You will notice that Mrs. Myrna Shivers is right up among the leaders in the race for the Reo Phaeton. "Whoever gets the first prize automobile will have to go some," says Mrs. Edith Slayton of Santa Monica, and she is going after the votes in earnest. Mrs. Jas. Goodwin has a big bunch of loyal friends who mean to see her capture the first honors. First place honors this week go to Mrs. Augusta McCallister. Will wager that there will be some shifting around by this time next week when the vote standings are again shown. Quite a few votes have been sent in for Mrs. K. C. Venerable, which indicates that she has a large following and a number of boosters on her side. Another candidate who has benefited by friends who have paid up their subscription and cast their votes for her is Mrs. T. R. LeBlanc. It is very seldom that a mail comes in which does not have votes for Ed. T. Hubbard. A new nomination last week was Gilbert F. Allen. Another candidate who came to the front in good shape was Rev. L. B. Brown. Keep your eye on Miss Elizabeth Perkins. She knows how to get the votes and it takes votes to win this dandy Reo Pheaton. Mrs A. L. Ray is a new entry of last week and she is making a splendid showing. The ladies have no monopoly in The Eagle's campaign. As proof of this, take a look at Rev. M. W. Irving's score. Additional proof of the above statement is in the showing that Rev. J. E. McCorkle is making. With her eye on the $1,796.00 Reo Phaeton, Miss Idell Albrighton is going after the votes like a veteran campaigner. Watch out for Mrs. Adina Mianott. She means business, as her vote score plainly shows. Mrs. Geo. Beavers, Jr., is planning to get busy while the "Big Vote" days are on. Another new nomination which was sent in last week is that of Mrs. Jas. B. Lowe. Accompanying the nomination were quite a few votes. An out-of-town candidate who is giving a good account of himself is Chas. Byrd of Pasadena. Not all the vote-getting talent is confined to Los Angeles. Mrs. W. D. Hollins of Monrovia is a real competitor. Quite a few good subscription promises are reported to campaign headquarters by Mrs. H. Spalding. That's the way to go after them. From the way that her friends are helping her, there is no question but what Mrs. J. A. Bass will be a strong contender for the Reo Phaeton.

ELDRIDGE, Pastor. Our Sunday School was parencellent with wonderful attendance, and teachers were at their best. Many glorious truths were brought out. Dr. Skipwith conducted a short evangelistic service in the Sunday School, the course of which were felt very keenly. This great evangelist will be with us through the coming week, closing his revival effort Friday evening. He conducted three services Sunday, preaching powerful sermons at each service. He reached the mountain peak of his effort in the afternoon service, when he preached from the text "I have put off my coat, how shall I put it on". Solomon's Song, B.3. Dr. Skipwith was with us also in the B. Y. P. U. and gave helpful instructions. Confee and hear him each night and you will be graciously helped. Thursday night special sermon to men, but ladies are invited.

Each Lord's Day brings to us many things for which to be glad. The Choir under the leadership of Mrs. F. B. Miller never fails to give sweet music appropriate for every occasion. Bro. I. J. Williams is striving to push his Bible School to the front rank in the "Standard of Efficiency." The Y. Y. P. S. C. E. cannot be given time to finish their heated discussions that are well attended and full of good thoughts. Bro. W. F. Thompson's address was a sermon within itself on the topic last Sunday evening. Regular preaching services are always interesting. Morning subject: "Study to show myself approved unto God, rightly dividing the word of Truth." Evening subject: "Sanification." Many historical and Biblical facts were brought out in these sermons and the minister was complimented highly, for the clearness and plainness of it all. We were so glad to have Bro. R. B. Hayes with us. When you want to enjoy good services and of the day or evening. Come to Birch of the day or evening. Come to Birch Street, you are welcome. Services: 9:45 and 11 A.

At the 11 a.m. service Dr. Prowd delivered a very helpful message on Prayer—"This man went down to his house justified." The B. Y. P. U. was well attended and the Lesson discussed profitably. The pastor's discourse at night was that of "waiting on God." We invite all—come praying. Rev. Wm. A. Washington, Pastor Sunday School was quite an interesting service. It was largely attended.

The sermon was very impressive and quickened the hearts of those present. The choir rendered a beautiful anthem contributing its usual share by singing the gospel into the hearts. A lesson on "Faith" was a great lesson in the Bible Class and next Sunday promises to be just as good on "Works." "At 8 p.m. Rev. Shaw delivered another splendid sermon from Luke 12:21."

Nothing but Bargains - WE PROTECT YOU! WHITE SUPREMECY IS SHACKY "Whom the Gods would destroy they first make mad." The much-vaunted superiority of the white man is being challenged as never before in the United States. Despite all bars and obstacles the black brother is proving every day that he is the equal and often the superior of the whites. In business, athletics, music art, literature, industry and general culture, he is alarming his white brother by his rapid strides. Naturally no one likes to have his position endangered by an "inferior". How can we preserve the myth of white superiority when Negroes of ability and courage in every walk of life are capturing first places? All around us we see the answer: Refuse to employ him in the skilled and professional positions. Don't play football or baseball with him when you can prevent it, or allow him to join your teams. Segregate him and discriminate against him at every opportunity. Don't allow him an inch because we know he is capable of taking a mile. What then, would become of our much vaunted "Nordic" ascendency? It is this dreadful fear of the Negro and the other darker peoples capturing all the coveted prizes; intellectual, economic, artistic and athletic, that constitutes the foundation for the spirit of Ku Kluxism possessed by nine-tenths of our white brethren. Is the Negro an intelligent thrifty workman, liable to become a property owner? Then, since God of America is Property, we must, by hook or crook, keep him as far removed from the deity as possible, by the well known methods—discrimination and segregation. Is the Negro a great Athlete? Then we must refuse to box him, play football or tennis with him, or allow him to compete in any championship contests. Is the Negro a great artist? Then we must do everything to discourage him. Is the Negro a great scholar? Then we must do everything to prevent him from showing up the ignorance of second-rate white boys and girls. But the black brother seems to get on closer to the laurels, whether on no. Despite everything his ruddy-skinned friend has done, he continues to threaten the seats of the mighty. Even though the white papers do softpedal the achievements of Negroes, the pale face brethren in the mass are beginning to feel insecure. The fear that they may not be as superior as they have always believed—is gripping their hearts as never before. The idea of Negroes owning banks, locomobiles, mansions! The destruction of a great idea is underway. In the general panic of 'Nordic' America, force is resorted to as the only alternative to stem the rising tide of color that it threatening white world supremacy. So we have Johnson. Stowe and the Indiana deportations. How often will this happen in the future, with the dark brethren making rapid strides every day? No one knows. One thing, however, the Navr must resolve to do in the future: Not to leave his home and run away every time some white moron shoves a Ku Klux letter under his front door. Such conduct is inexcusable in people aspiring to full manhood rights. A man's home is his castle and he has a right, yes, a duty, to defend it. There are times to go and there are times to stay, but there is no special virtue in consistency. Negroes are coming North in droves. Good! They found it expedient not to stay any longer in the South. It was time to go, when Northern industry and better living conditions beckoned. Now the Negroes are here. It is time to stay, and no time to go, even when warned by a vigilancecommittee. If the Negro could stand the endless drill, confinement segregation and discrimination of the cantonments in this country, and the filth, vermin, danger, disease, death, and soul-sickening experiences in France, to make the world safe for democracy, surely he should be willing and anxious to make America safe for himself. CHANDLER OWEN EAST SIDE TRADING COMPANY Tremendous strides are being made by the East Side Trading Company on East 23rd street near Hooper Ave. The inducement offered to those who buy produce is such that it commands the support. The Company is If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened East of Mafn street at this time is the scene of much activity on the part of the Crime Crushers and this particular detail is headed by one who is feared far and near by all of those who are wont to play and trifle with the law and his name is a by-word for you can hear them say: "Here comes Cholo;" and not unlike Jack Dempsey he comes weaving his way, looking into dark places and lining them up, as well as to load them up and send them to Central Station. What a Change Will Do Cholo Johnson has earned the hatred of all who break the law and many who do not; for per chance when his crew is pulling off a raid if you get too near the scene of action they rave everybody they see right into the bunch raided and much inconvenience in this way has come to many who are entirely innocent of being in any unlawful place. We therefore advise everybody to stay as far away from a raid as possible especially when the "Crime Crushers are doing their stuff." There have been serious mistakes made by the Crime Crushers, but not to any particular group. Black men have been unwantonly beaten up also white men have fared the same fate and there has been much just criticism on the Crime Crushers for this manner of doing things. As for Cholo Johnson and his bunch we will be fair and say that no brutality has been reported on their part. We feel that law abiding citizens on the street will have no objections of standing a "frisk" when commanded to do so by police officers. This paper has complained when they would seem to persecute legitimate business concerns and lay upon some particular place as if by command of some invisible hand. Stand Up for Law and Order We are with the police 100 per cent for law and order and have no complaint, when without brutality or unnecessary beating, the officers proceed to perform their duty. We recall when colored officers under the same circumstances were performing their duty the hue and cry that went up against them by a certain element of our group and now they can realize that no matter what the color of the officer's skin the law must be upheld, and all good citizens cannot but acquiesce in the efforts put forth in behalf of law and order. Last week from Friday to Sunday this a partial list of activities as noted by the following arrests: W. B. Boswell and Theo. Harmore. 1112 Central Ave.—Wright Act; Mattie Tolliver. 416 Seaton St. —Wright Act; Hazel Anderson—Possession Lottery Tickets; Pete Bates—Wright Act; Minnie Braxton. 1160 E. 10th St.—Wright Act; W. A. Minor—Wright Act; Nannie Harris. 1150² Central Ave.—Delinquency of Edna Floyd. 17 years, turned over to Juvenile Dept.; Ethel Freeman. 1013 Central Ave. And the Crushers are moving on, and to our mind if you do not cherish being crushed—"live within the law." Resume Now take the above write-up as you like, we give the facts for their worth. We have at no time sanctioned brutality or persecution, but stand up for law and order. There are other places which come in for consideration, which, if true, will take away the glamour of some of the work accomplished. But there is the rub. One investigator brings us the report that there is war in the underworld and one big director of this species actually gives orders who to raid and when to raid them. We have been unable to confirm this at this writing, but we certainly think the police should do its own directing unless they are using crooks to catch crooks and in the meantime the Crime Crushers move on, and the Eagle's Eye is upon them.
