Kills Officer Gets 10 Yrs.
Bryant Gets Ten Years For Killing Officer Corley A. J. Gilmore, and Wounding Officer E. R. Roberson
In Judge Carlos Hardy's Court on Tuesday morning, Luther Bryant, charged with first degree murder for killing Officer F. E. Corley and A. J. Gillmore at 12th and Hopper Avenue on Sunday evening, August 22nd, plead guilty to manslaughter and was sentenced to 10 years in the penitentiary. This result of course is a surprise to most people for it was thought that drastic punishment would be meted out to the killer of these men. It leads to the thought that not much heed is given to murder when committed by our group. However, we are informed the circumstances in this case were such that the state was not sure of a conviction of any sort in this particular case and therefore accepted the plea of manslaughter. The low down on the killing has been left out and disclosed the fact that Luther Bryant, a physician, working, was pounced upon by a man much larger than himself, the man's gun fell out of its holster, Bryant grabbed it and just kept shooting at everything he saw, and his defense would perhaps have won a victory had he gone to trial.
POLITICAL POT PIE
DONES ANNOUNCES PLATFORM ON WHICH HE WILL RUN AS AN INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE FOR THE ASSEMBLY FROM THE 73rd DISTRICT
Sidney P. Dones the well known and energetic business man who has filed as independent candidate for the Assembly from the 73rd Assembly District, announces as his platform: Unselfish services for all the people, unalterably opposed to the policies of Gqvornor Friend Richardson, and his plea of false economy, which has in fact increased taxes instead of reducing them, also he has consistently ignored recognition to a large and loyal part of his constituents. He states that his opponent is well known as an administration man and as such the battle lines are clearly defined and on this issue will go forth with his cause confident of a sweeping victory.
On last Wednesday in the Federal Court Dr. Wyman who was charged with unlawfully prescribing narcotics to his patients, was tried and convicted. It is said that his own insistence to go on the stand and testify in his own behalt was his unading, for up to that moment the government had
The Lincoln League will be found on the job holding up the principles of Lincoln in the pending campaign. It will suffer no untoward happenings to thwart its growth, will knock all stones out of its path and be on its way.
Chas. Olivier, veteran politician, journeyed to San Francisco last week to talk things over with the big ones.
J. B. Bass was appointed this week as a member of the executive committee of the State Central Committee.
W. J. Wheaton, of San Francisco, who was one of the forces behind the recent power bond election, at San Francisco last Tuesday, came through with flying colors.
The Independent League held a rousing meeting last night at the St. Paul annex, 21st and Naomi St. W. H. Sanders is president of this organization.
Judge Carlos Hardy deserves a strong and United support for Superior Judge he will without question receive it.
Pudge Ira Thompson is one of the foremost jurists on the bench, and will lead this ticket at the general election not unlike the manner in which he led it in the primaries.
The simmering political pot will reach the boiling point next week and boil until the polls close on Nov. 4th.

RECORD OF
Unfavorable Attitude o
dent is l
Charleston, W. Va.—West Virginia Negroes are opposing the candidacy of John W. Davis, Democratic nominee for the Presidency, on the ground that he is unfriendly to their race and that his election would place in jeopardy their right of franchise. They are preparing, to launch a nation wide campaign in opposition to his candidacy. Negro speakers will be sent from West Virginia into other states to tell of the activities of the Democratic candidate in preparing legislation imminent to their interests.
Mr. Davis has incurred the opposition of the Negroes of his native state because of an effort to strip them of their right of suffrage and to provide "Jim Crow" cars for their transportation on railroads within West Virginia. Planks favoring separate cars on railroad trains for the two races and condemning the entrenchment of "an inferior race" were incorporated in the Democratic platform in a State convention held in Charleston in 1908. John W. Davis and his father were delegates to this convention. The father, the late John J. Davis, was chairman of the committee on resolutions, which prepared the two planks, and spoke in the convention for their adoption. The delegation in the convention from Harrison County, of which the father and son were members, both supported both planks.
The convention of 1907, held in Charleston on July 24th of that year, was the last Democratic convention held in the state for the purpose of nominating state officers, John W. Davis, and his father were accredited leaders of the Democratic party at that time. The present Democratic nominee for the Presidency was the manager in the convention of the gubernatorial campaign of the late Thomas E. Hodges, who was defeated for the nomination for governor by Louis Bennett of Weston.
George Byrne, newspaper editor, who died a few months ago at Williamson, was the leader of the movement in the Democratic Party to disfranchise the Negro. The adoption of the plank was the successful culmin
complete church choice for our group on the Pacific coast.
Quite an elaborate program has been arranged and the pastors of all the various churches in the city will participate as well as the choirs from the different churches.
OTERS DISSECT
F JOHN W. DAVIS
of Candidate For Presi-
Disclosed.
ation of a contest he had waged for years. Many of the Democratic leaders in the state were opposed to the adoption of the planks in the Democratic platform, advising that the course was suicidal for the party.
The contest over the two planks was bitter. When John J. Davis, the father of the Democratic nominee and chairman of the committee on resolutions reported the platform to the convention, a long debate ensued. Colonel John T. McGraw, for many years Democratic national, committeeman, reciting that he was opposed to the incorporation of the two planks in the platform, moved for their recommitment for further consideration by the committee. The motion prevailed.
After several hours of strife in the committee room the committee reported favorably the two resolutions. Another grueling battle was waged on the floor of the convention. Chairman Davis made a final appeal for the adoption of the resolutions and they were inserted in the platform by a vote of 710 to 412. In this debate the father of the Democratic nominee was a striking figure. More than 70 years of age, straight as a young sapling, with flowing white hair and beard, the venerable committee chairman made one of the greatest efforts of a political career that beamed with the formation of his state and ended with his death a few years later.
The delegates, which John W. Davis corralled for Hodges for the gubernatorial nomination were almost a unit for the adoption of the two planks. Monogala county, the home of Hodges voted solidly for the resolutions.
The plank which proposed the disfranchisement of the Negroes, reads: "Believing that the extension of the elective franchise to a race interior in intelligence and without preparation for the wise and prudent exercise of a privilege so vital to the maintenance of good government, was a mistake if not a crime, committed by the Republican party during the reign of passion and prejudice following the Civil War, for political ends and purposes, we declare the Democratic pur-

LINCOLN, LEAGUE HOLDS IMPORTANT MEETING AT Y. M. C. A.
On last Tuesday evening a regular meeting of the Lincoln League called by the Executive Committee attracted quite an attendance and much business was transacted by this record breaking organization which has attained in such a short space of time such a huge membership.
Declares President's Office Vacant
The League after quite a discussion by a unanimous vote declared the office of president held by Dr. Darrington Weaver vacant and that until such time until his successor has been elected that the Vice President will act as president.
Quite a routine of business was transacted and a big meeting called for next Tuesday evening at the same place for the purpose of getting lined up on vital questions which concern the activities of the organization.
Their Voices Will Charm At St. Paul, Tuesday, Oct.14,8:15 P.M.
On Tuesday evening the public will be given an opportunity to hear these local artists, Madam Jordan and Madam Marie Overstreet Jackson. It is a matter of pride that we are ready to give you a real treat. This is Madam Jordan's first appearance here in dramatic, recital but she has been the favorite in the East and middle west. Those who have or have not heard Madam Jackson on previous programs cannot afford to miss this for she is one of the few certified Dramatis as well as operatic sopranos.

ty is in favor of amending the constitution so as to preserve the purity of the lot and the electorate of the state from the evil results from conferring such powers and privileges upon those who are unatted to appreciate its importance as it affects the stability and preservation of good government."
The plank proposing separate coaches reads:
"We favor enactment of a law requiring common carriage engaged in passenger trade to turn a separate coaches or compartments, white and colored passengers."
OFFICER SHEFFIELD SHOOTS TAXI DRIVER
Police officer M. B. Sheffield, who is and he called upon the driver to halt, rated by the police department as one of its most efficient officers on last Wednesday evening, shot and seri-ously wounded a well known taxi driver named William Coill at 813 Linden street.
It is claimed by the officer that he suspicapped the car which Coill was driving to be a cache for narcotics.
Coill is at the hospital, and in the time our reporter called to interview him was not able to see him.
The Southern California Conference, Methodist Episcopal Church, closed its forty-ninth session at Grace Methodist Episcopal Church, Santa Barbara on Tuesday, September 30th. Grace Church proved a delightful hostess and looked after the interests of all the delegates in the fashion.
The Conference was opened with the Holy Communion, administered by Bishop Burns, assisted by the District Superintendents, and Rev. J. B. Green, one of two living organizers of the Conference. This was followed by the organization of the Conference. The memorial service was then held for six members of the Conference, and four ministers' wives, who had passed on during the year.
Bishop Burns made a very fine impression in his presidency of the conference, and won the hearts of all. His devotional addresses at 8:30 each morning were listened to by audiences that filled the capacity of the church. The reports of the District Superintendents occupied all of Thursday evening. Their reports showed a thorough grasp of their work, and progress along all lines. They were comprehensive in their scope and envisioned a program for days to come that was inspiring.
One of the very high points of the session was the address of the Bishop to the class for admission to the conference. Seated behind the class in the center of the church was the undergraduate group of the conference. The Bishop delivered a masterly address from the subject, "The Ministry of Tomorrow". He then read into full membership of the conference five young men.
The conference will enter upon a campaign for five hundred thousand dollars, during the month of October, for the retired men of the conference. This will settle once for all the question of the support for those men who thru the years give their all for the cause of God in the world, surrendering without complaint, and with measure, the privilege of making money.
The conference carries on many and varied activities, including the operation of hospitals, decohouses' homes, Pacific Palisades, and the University of Southern California, and many other interests too numerous to mention.
Something of the magnitude of the work done by the conference may be gleaned from the following figures: 288 churches reported a membership of 79,839; 245 Epworth Leagues reported a membership of 10,270; 106 Junior Leagues reported a membership of 3066; 310 Sunday Schools reported a total enrollment of 99,518.
Pastor's salary amounting to $649.696; District Superintendents $25.208; Bishops $11.718; Conference Claimants, $70.577, making a total for ministerial support of. $757.876.00. The Benevolent giving of the conference during the year amounted to $346.000.00.
The appointments as read on Tuesday at noon, showed the appointment of two new District Superintendents; one of the Pasadena District and the other over the Fresno District. Rev. Shaw was returned to Wesley for his eighth year, Rev. Beane to Hamilton for his sixth year, Rev. Jorden to Pasadena for his 6th year. Rev. Stont was returned to Watts for his third year. Fowler supplied for the last five years by Rev. D. P. Shaw, who gave up the work because of ill health, will be supplied by Rev. Barclay.
WILL BE PRESENT
Bishop C. H. Phillips, A. M., M. D., L. L. D., of Cleveland, Ohio, the preacher, scholar, and orator will preach the opening sermon, Sunday at 11 A. M. Bishop Phillips is the founder of our Colored Methodism in the West.
POLICE HUNTING FOR KILLER
Missoula. Oct. 3.—Face downward in a pool of blood, her body riddled with bullets, and a revolver clutched in her right hand, Mrs. Ed. Mack, colored, proprietor of the Columbia roome, 234 West Main street was discovered dead in a woodshed at the back of the rooming house about 9:30 o'clock yesterday morning by her husband, Ed Mack. The gun was at her temple, and it was first thought she had committed suicide. This theory was quickly dispelled, however, when a hurried examination was made. The case is clearly one of murder, evidently premeditated, officials assert. The she din which the body was found is on the alley which runs by the city hall, and is less than 12 feet away from the police station.
Negro Held As Suspect
A Negro, giving his name as Tom Burns, who has been in Missouri, for only the past few days, and who was at the rooming house Wednesday night, is being held at the county jail in connection with the case. He was arrested about 10 o'clock yesterday morning. Lengthy questioning by officers has brought but little real information as the Negro has told several contradicting stories and has told two versions of his coming to Missoula which the police, from other facts in their possession know to be false.
Mrs. Laura Adamson of San Antonio, Texas, has arrived here and would like to get in touch with her son and daughter. She can be found at 1741 Newton Street. Phone HUmbolt 7988. The son is named Anderson Ross and the daughter's name is Dora Jones, also Luther Adamson, another son.
Mrs. Enola, Atterway Chism, 1471 Newton street, returned Tuesday from a trip to the East where she attended the National Federated Women's Club as a delegate, returning she visited many other cities including her old home in Texas.

"STUDY THE BIBLE" By Damon Walls
CORNER STONE BAPTIST
CHURCH
When Sir Walter Scott was dying, he said, "Bring me the book" "What book" was asked. "There is but one book" was the reply. Every boy and girl should know that the bible is the best of all books. It stands in a class all by itself. The bible is the expression' of God's will, the very embodiment of all truth. It would be the height of presumption for any one to expect to achieve any degree of real success in life, without being guided by the counsels of God's word. Among all the books of the world the bible ranks highest in literary excellence. All authors of importance received their inspiration from the book of books. It is said that nine tenths of all the good literature is only the Bible diluted. No one can claim to be truly educated who does not know the teachings of this precious book. The bible is the only book that meets man's deepest need. It is rightly called "The Book of Books". No one has ever been saved through reading Milton or Shakespeare. But millions of lives have been transformed through obedience to the precepts of God's word. In I. Peter 1:23, we read that we are born again not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible through the word of God which liveth and abideth.

"And they that were ready went in with him to the marriage," (Matt. 25:10), was the text used by the pastor at the morning hour on last Sunday as he spoke the appreciative audience assembled, on: "Christian Preparedness." The Lincoln's Male Quartet added much to the service in singing very effectively and appropriately, "Get You Ready For the Coming of The Lord." A large number of members and friends parlock of the Lord's Super which was administered at the close of the service. One person joined the church.

We wish for him a speedy recovery. The landlady where he rooms, Mrs. E. A. Cook, we will give her great praise and wish her much pay for the kindness she has extended to Mr. Huddleston during his sick period. She has played the part of a real trained nurse which has been quite an assistance to Mr. Huddleston during his illness.

Mrs. Madge Kelly was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. W. Shelton Sunday at Eureka Villa. Mr. and Mrs. Norman White drove up from Los Angeles with a party of friends including Mr. and Mrs. J. Rutherford and Mr. and Mrs. Raife and Hr. B'Landruff of Atlanta, Ga.
Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Turner with their house guests Dr. and Mrs. Cooper and Mrs. Bertha Smith of Santa Barbara, spent a delightful day at the Turner Cottage which is one of the most hospitable homes at Eureka Villa. Among the few hickers who reached the highest peak in Eureka Sunday were Dr. Cooper of Santa Barbara, and Oscar and Mrs. James of Chicago. They report the view the finest they have ever seen and as they have traveled all over the Eastern mountains they kno wwhat they are talking about.
Mrs. Chas. Lawrence has moved her business into her new building which is one of the finest places in Eureka Villa.

The Eureka Villa road, the much discussed property, is being graded and made into one of the finest county roads in Los Angeles County. The road is being made thirty feet wide/giving plenty of room for two cars to pass. The first large hills as you start up the grade have been leveled making a genite ascent up a 15 degree grade. There are now eight to twelve teams with a crew of forty men working on the road so that it will be finished up in a short time. The road to Eureka Villa property is not entirely closed as the detour is a very good road. The Advisory Board of the Eureka Villa Improvement Association will meet Monday evening October 12, at the home of Mr. Elbridge Lee, 2017 W. 29th Place.
YOUNG PEOPLE URG ED TO TEACH
Interest Marks Junior N.A.A.C.P. Program
Urgging that our young people take a more sustained interest in work other than professional, Dr. J. A. Somerville, in an asgarddolvəry oaymehr erville, in an address before the Junior N.A.A.C.P. last Sunday afternoon, spoke at length on embracing opportunities.
Basing his remarks upon a quotation from Confucius, he referred to George Washington Carver of Tuskegee and Paul R. Williams of Los Angeles as men who, having started out in life with great handicaps, accomplished through toll and patient application, and urged that more of our young people look forward to other vocations, such as teaching, rather than enter professional fields. The professions, he emphasized, are overcrowded and offer no large opportunities for unselfish service, while the great scarcity of competent teachers is to be challenged as a grave menace to our emancipation. Culture, refinement, and good sense, he said, were requisite to any kind of success, and should therefore be sought as such. He related in closing a number of personal experiences encountered by him as a student in the University of Southern California.
Miss Velma White, popular high school sub-debutante, sang "Ross of Picardy" accompanied by Miss Marian Carter, Mr. A. Dinney gave an impropunct piano solo.
The next meeting of the Junior N.
A.A.C.P. will be held at the Independent
Church, 18th and Paloma streets,
on October 26th, at 4:00 P. M. Miss
Naida McCullough, chairman of the
program committee, states that the
program on this date will be of unusual
interest. Everyone is cordially invited.

wan.”

Shades of the night and now comes forth some crack-brained cracker from the bayous of Louisiana who wants to get Walter Cohen's job on the ground that he is not a citizen. We are firmly of the opinion that Cohen's citizenship will far excel that of the brainless cracker.

STOP THIEF THEY CRY!

Likewise do we admonish all who read and who hear not to be carried away into any belief that the men or women who are prone to berate everybody except themselves as sycophants and parasites. For only too often the term applies to the one who uses it the most. As a matter of fact it is only the fruit, by which we judge the tree.

Up until that time, it devolves upon every man who recognizes the Republican party as the party which gave freedom to its predecessors, as the party which first gave Negroes appointments in public office, and as the party which is now more calculated by reason of its platform and policies to bring about the final emancipation of Negroes, it devolves upon every man who recognizes these things to vote the straight Republican ticket. Only by that may we be assured of a continuation of the economic prosperity which we are presently enjoying.

For the sake of novelty, imprudent men and women for-sake old party allegiances. It is no great matter to them as to the wisdom of deserting a party which from time immemorial has championed their rights, for they are essentially unwise and cannot, therefore, distinguish between the wise and the otherwise.

BEWARE OF DECEIVERS.
As the time approaches when everyman who has duly registered and has stated his political preferences must go to the polls and vote we find that the election crop of imposters, receivers, and other mountebanks gradually grow. This growth of imposters in the political arena must be reckoned with, or our political fortunes may be in danger. It behooves every man, then, to stay on the alert, lest receivers may lead him astray into those devious paths from which no one can return with the satisfaction of having gone.

Making absurd and specious promises to voters seems to be the chief pastime of Davis and LaFollette. Bent upon a program of sling and slander they rant about the country decrying the present state of affairs, when they know, as a matter of fact, that conditions among us today are considerably much better than they were during the tumultuous years 1916-18.
Why these two modern Don Quixotes take this and make of it a pastime is due to the naive simplicity of their minds. Shall we be misled by their specious promises? They will prove a veritable Apple of Sodom, and will bring in their wake a shattering of our present prosperity.
AN AFOLOGY FOR POLITE LYING
What is polite lying? Is it a state of certain people whose training has not actuate them in telling the truth? Is it as a virtue, or is it condemned as a vow upon the practitioner? What is the reason to it? What, in short, is polite lying? These questions strikingly imply the ject for editorist discussion, offers many aspects, which may be discussed either of the pedant or with the scintilating journalist. We, however, having to su
What is polite lying? Is it a state of mind? Is it a fad among certain people whose training has not been severe enough to actuate them in telling the truth? Is it countenanced in our day as a virtue, or is it condemned as a vice? What are its effects upon the practitioner? What is the reaction of sincere people to it? What, in short, is polite lying?
These questions strikingly imply that polite lying, as a subject for editorial discussion, offers many interesting and novel aspects, which may be discussed either with the thoroughness of the pedant or with the scintilating brevity of the literary journalist. We, however, having to suffer under the inadequa-
cies of time—inadequacies which every newspaper man must encounter—will have to confine ourselves to a brief but pointed discussion of polite lying. Realizing this, we have consequently set down our thoughts in the following interesting manner, and with the following notable results:
Polite, from the Latin polito, past perfect of polio, which means to polish, is defined in "Murray's Many-volumed New English Dictionary" as the art of exhibiting in manner or speech a considerate regard for others. In another definition, it is more tersely defined as "finished and elegant in style".
The last definition applies to language, and the first is not altogether inapplicable to language. Taken in conjunction with the word "lying", which is a manner of speaking, "polite lying" this may be said to be the art of telling an untruth in a clean and honorable manner, without malice aforethought. But with just the aim of rendering comfort and assurance either to the polite liar or to the person whom the polite liar is lying to.
I believe that it was decidedly advantageous. We were subjected while speaking an African jargon; but came out using the splendid English language. We were subjected while pagans, but came out acquainted with the grace of God and knew full well that Jehovah heard and answered prayer. God employs two methods of raising savage peoples to the standards of civilisation—one is slavery, a rough industrial school; the other is by the courage of the Christian missionary. Had a beneficent Providence not directed the prow of that Dutch trader which first landed on us the sandy banks of Jamestown to poke its nose through Atlantic gales and violent storms, we might yet be in Africa—clothed by the sunlight, fed by the law of gravitation (cocoonate hit—the case).
To use an analogy, we often speak, sometimes with amusement, and sometimes with disgust, of people who are "too frank", who have "no sense of humor", who go contamuciously telling all they know about themselves and others, unmindful of the fact that often his information is not wanted, prying, straining, ever rushing forward to tell what they know about all and sundry. We add that they should be more "diplomatic" and thereby refrain from telling all, for no one is ever interested. They irritate others and often make an ass of themselves. Few ever are at ease in their presence, and none ever feel quite confident of themselves. They are joy-dispellers and mak elife miserable.
Boswell, that inimitable chronicler of events and men, who so adhered to those who were not uncelebrated in his day, and insisted in taking part with them in everything, was such a type. One imagines that if th epeople whom he talked about and wrote about were to come to life again they would certainly be infuriated to learn that Boswell has been so caddishly frank in telling all he knew about them. Indeed, his singular genius for telling all about all is a suggestive topic for psychological analysis. What would John Dewey or G. Hall conjecture as to the state or condition of his mind? Their report would be as novel as it would be interesting.
This historical and literary allusion might be endless: we might go on and speak of Samuel Pepys, and of all the endless twaddle embodied in his famous "Diary". But to come back to the polite, liar, an unusual aspect of his case must be presented. He seeks to make everyone happy by refraining from telling that that would make everyone unhappy. he lies to put others at ease, since the truth is semi-occasionally humiliating and intolerable. He is a kind of cushion, lifting us in the air when we travel over rough roads. He is the beau ideal of a kind of etiquette unquestionably popular in our day; and, in view of his frantic but amusing efforts to make others happy, some sincere apology might be made for his practices.
For were it not for him we would live in a state of restless discomfort, and would be often perforce to lose our self- possession and control. Allow him, then, to exist in our social circles, not as a freak to be unsympathetically watched, but as a necessary guard of that personal security which he often enables us to have, and which we all seek to obtain in daily interaction with our relatives and friends.
This editorial is one more monument to the sheer validity of polite lying, which is amusing in many respects and engaging in any particular one.

Mistress of Ceremonies, members of this church, citizens of Los Angeles:—I should delight in having some fair, queenly, unattached young lady say to me what your polished chairwoman has just said about me. I should be to me forsake the Bachelor's Club and apply for admission to the Benedict's Association this very year. Such, however, is not the case. For while much is said about me, little is said to me.
Without further introductory remarks I desire to speak to you tonight upon the subject, "The New Emancipation."
In the eloquent words of one of our brilliant thinkers and orators: "This nation has given to the world two great, wise, and humane state papers. One, the Declaration of Independence the other, the Emancipation Proclamation. Both were born in the days of doubt and darkness. Both were the real injustice overstepping the bounds of independence reason. The Declaration of Independence cary that the nation might be born and the Emancipation Proclamation was necessary that the nation might live. Grand as was the Declaration of Independence, lofty as were its sentiments, its very wording was a cause for controversy. The forefathers had early declared that all men are created free and equal, with inalienable rights, to the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness, but it required $87 for the American people to see that all men are white men and that the mantle of American citizenship must be broad enough to cover all who stand beneath the stars and stripes.
Standing beneath the flag we declare our loyalty as deep as its azure blue and our devotion as pure as its stars of white." It is still problematical as to how much progress we have made in teaching and practising the fundamental equality of all the sons of men in this republic. Progress largely depends upon the point of view of the parties most directly interested or the observer. Should a hound be chasing a rabbit and gaining upon the latter, the hound is making progress, but the rabbit is not no matter how rapidly he may be moving through space. Sixty-two years ago, Abraham Lincoln, of sainted memory, Lincoln who embarked with the sages and immortals of all ages, brought a bright particular luminary in a bright sky, illustrious patron of freedom, champion of great causes, consummation of great hopes, ambassador of faith and nobleman of nature penned the epocalyptic Proclamation of Emancipation. Prompt and seen that he was
Lincoln recognized that the black man was the rock of human possibilities. But comprehensive and inclusive as his document was it manumitated only the physical man. The man mentally, morally and spiritually must yet he liberated, but liberated not by outside forces or agencies but through the instrumentality of the kingdom within. Whatever one is accustomed to is natural. To Aristotle it was proper to hold an Ethiopian as a slave, but improper to enslave a Greek.
Today in the kingdom of my fathers, in democracy's broadest domain although ostensibly I am free, I am nominally a serif and a peon. The black man is compelled to ride in the beastly jim-crow car in 13 states, a coach usually unfit even for cattle thirty of our commonwealths strictly prohibit inter-marriage between the races, separate schools are assigned in us half of the country including every Southern State, residential segregation has been the vogue the decision of the United States Supreme Court to the contrary notwithstanding, more than 3000 members of our race group have been brutally lynched or annually buried during the past 30 years, the union vote of the black man is unanimous part or in whole. Gross inequalities exist in the expenditure of the public funds in many sections and incessantly it is black man this or black man that. Being unable to remove the North, the East or the West to the South, the Southerner has removed to the East, the West or the North and has carried himself with him. Out of this cockpit of revenge and hate, of this beetling cauldron of oppression and persecution, the Negro crows and for a new emancipation not some memorable nor succinct treatise on our place—not even some amendment inscribed into our Constitution by the dazzling stroke of a diamond pen—for amendments now unimaginable. Republican president Calvin Cohn republican leader adorn our state books—but a profound change in the philosophy of life, the psychology of action of the American black man must be induced—which Americans of fairer hue may note, which shall in turn modify their view of us, which shall teach them that we are heirs with them of golden legacies, and that down the silver corridors of shining centuries peace's most exultant tribe triumphantly resounds: "The fatherhood of God, the masterhood of Jesus, the universal brotherhood of all mankind."
A little boy was sitting at the table one day while his mother entertained company. After eating heartily he said: "Nbw mother, I want some
"No, no; Willie, you mean molasses",
his mother corrected.
"No, I don't mother, I want lasses,
I ain't had none yet."
I can't find more yet.
So, ladies and gentlemen, we want democracy, we haven't enjoyed any yet.
Whether slavery has proved a mutilated blessing or a blighting curse is still a mounted question. Personally
I believe that it was decidedly advantageous. We were subjected while speaking an African jawkly jungle came out using the splendid English language. We were subjected while pagans, but came out acquainted with the grace of God and knew full well that Jehovah heard and answered prayer. God employs two methods of raising savage peoples to the standards of civilization—one is slavery, a rough industrial school; the other is by the courage of the Christian missionary. Had a beneficent Providence not directed the prow of that Dutch trader which first landed us on the sandy banks of Jamestown to poke its nose through Atlantic gales and violent storms, we might yet be in Africa by the sunlight, Ted by the law of gravitation (coconutate) sitting us on the head for no more centuries that some of us are still hard-headed) fanning ourselves with palm leaves and saying: "Shoo flies, don't bother me, I want to rest nothing else but."
Doubtless many of my auditors will recall the fact that a certain race of people who were known as the Angles, but who were so flawless in features, so beautiful in complexion, and so symmetrical in form, until the sobriquet Angels was applied to them were confined to the slave pens of Rome for 500 consecutive years. The eloquent and cultivated Cleo walking down the streets of the capital may give gaudy glances and exclaimed: "Those stupid Britons, they are not even fit to be slaves," No one ever accused us of being poor slaves. It was universally admitted that we performed our mealtasks well. Since that ignoble day the American white man descendants of that debased, demoralized, degraded group of bondsmen has worn the purple, gold cloak of power and authority. History tomorrow will ask us not where we came from but whither we going not from our ancestors were who we are—not what injustice has done to us, but what have we done to injustice in lighting the path for the stricken sons of earth's dejected. For still:
"So nigh is grandeur to our dust,
So near is God to man,
When duty whispers, lo, I must,
The youth replies, "I can."
A number of years ago the Honorable Jefferson Davis, president of the late Southern Confederacy, was conducting a number of distinguished visitors through the art galleries in the city of Richmond, Virginia. One of the visitors paused before a painting and gazed upon it intently. Mr. Davis inquired the reason for the gentleman's solicitation and concentration. "You see there," he declared, "only a Negro depleted asleep upon a bale of cotton."
"I was just thinking," responded the gentleman in turn, "what that Negro will do when he wakes up."
The great white world no longer things of the black man asleep, the world knows that the black man everywhere is awakening, that in his sunlit heart he is dreaming new dreams, that in his mind thoughts like lightning play their fantastic game of hide and seek, science has set the imagination free and when his dreams are over this black man redeemed will bestir himself in lifting up the crushed and trampled souls of men."
SOME "COMMON SENSE"
By Twinkling Star
We note that Jack Moonfixer's "culture and good breeding take away" his desire to answer our reviews of his so-called commensense. It is a decided pity that he did not remember, when he began his mudd-sliding, that he was then possessed of "culture and good breeding". We understand perfectly well why he won't answer us it is simply because he can't. That's all!
Every time you begin to give the other fellow his own medicine his experience changes, doesn't it? That's the trouble between France and Germany today! We never like the return dose!

Assuming, of course, that their ethical standards are correct, there are four classes of religious leaders in our pulpits today: (1) the mere preacher class; (2) the mere minister class; (3) the class of the preacher and minister combined, and (4) the class where the leader is neither a preacher nor a minister. To which class do you belong, "Doctor"?
LaFollette has found his true political identity. He is the man without a party who found the ticket without a man. And so his name will appear on the Socialist ticket. 2
The one cent sheets have switched, all of a sudden, to President Coolidge. It was after a lunchbox, too. This business of dining men is a most effective tonic. Does anybody remember when a certain American millionaire publisher visited Great Britain how he was banqueted by Lloyd George? Well, that fellow returned to America and distinctly turned his journalistic tide in a measure favrable to the British government. It was all the result of a "feed":
Most people who prate and yell about service to humanity, imagine drawing a fat salary together with that other people forget that they are the most liberal perquisites for their service and apparent faithfulness to humanity. All humanity is not so easily fooled.
We rather admire that presacher, who, out of his personal earrings and divine labors, owes his own automobile than that clever parasite who owns one that "belongs to the church."
"Never go grouching around because your kinfolks don't talk to others hard-earned cash to support you in your kiness and thriftlessness. More families are divided asunder by all kinfolk's financial demands than any other one thing. In matters of business and thrift there is no kinfolk."
It is always a poor policy to meddle with the family affairs of others. You are not on the inside and know practically nothing about the family affairs of your neighbor. It is always out of order to try to give advice or say what ought to be done in matters you know nothing about. Attend to your own business. Don't meddle with the affairs of others unless your advice is requested and you have been intimately informed as to the nature of the case".
Every fellow who gets paid for his ticular field has a moral obligation to service and faithfulness in any perstay there and discharge his duties. Other folk, working gratuitously, are not so bound.
Isn't it lamentable to see people when they are utterly incompetent in straining after intellectual bigness the most elementary principles of intellectual development?
It is certainly an amusement to hear how hackneyed and battered in the mouths of some men just a few words become. Such words for example, as "intellectual slavery!" When a man know the meaning of terms which he uses he seldom ever misplaces them. This is a mark of proper intellectual training.
Wise men turn their faces against such silly notions as chance and luck. They believe in individual responsibility. Let's get down to business and dismiss this nonsense by hard work.
IT SEEMS TO ME
By: CHAUNCEY TOWNSEND
The wide-spread discontent among Negroes, which is now being clearly evinced by those who have deserted the G. O. P. is food for serious and earnest reflection. Negroes are no longer satisfied with the political remnants traditionally passed down to them after other groups have been given the best in appointments, opportunities, and civil rights. This discontent is so wide-spread and so revolutionary that it devolves upon every Negro to study carefully the issues in this campaign, and to vote in strict accordance with his conscience after such careful study.
---
Economically, the American Negro in the main, belongs to that class of wage-earners who needs to live, the diminishing returns of the day's not upon pre-existing capital, but upon work. His diminishing productivity in every field of service is a grave menace to his future economic rating; and if he is to pass down to those who are to live when he is in his grave something more that he has now, it is imperative that he starts something—in the way of "raising hell"—about wages, rent, land and employment. To remark that selfish competition, as evinced among Negroes in the world of business, trade and professions, should be turned into cheerful cooperation and mutual help is an entreaty so old indeed that its very age and the futility with which it has been repeatedly said looms up gigantically at the mere mention of it. What is to be done?
The answer comes back in clear and unequivocal terms: If we are to demonstrate our discontent with what we have; that is, with blind-alley occupations, which make it impossible for the great majority of us to live other than from hand-to-mouth, we must devise more effective means of logically effective means in the way of protest, propoganda and efficient organization.
Near the close of the last half-century, thousands of men were victimized by unscrupulous landowners and entrepreneurse in the state of California. They were white men. And they all, save Henry George, accepted their fate calmly and unprotestingly. It was of the greatest concern to him to find out why poverty increased amid advancing wealth; and he so studied the conditions among wage earners in his day that he was actuated to propose some way by which the conditions could be mitigated. The result was his Economic Principles which, although belfg regarded by some economists as "visiary, impractical and Utopian," have been successfully tried out and adopted in several provinces of Canada and New Zealand.
Are there any Negroes living in this day who are as deeply concerned with the economics of their group as Henry George was with the economics of his group? The wild rush of many after such ephemeral things as titles, social positions, and as much of the publicity of print as they can bribe an Editor to get is sufficient reason to believe that there are not any Negroes so serious and so concerned. What will the outcome be?
The answer can only be that, as we look forward into the future, which is surrounded by many shadows that foretell dangers of many kinds, it is a simple matter of historical thinking to tell that the Negro will be a fraction economically, while the Jews, the Japanese and others will be integers in the economic scheme of things. That, of course, at the same time indicates that the Negro will be without those social and political rights which by the Constitution of the United States, are his, albeit the synophantic adulation of those who tell us that we "have made the greatest progress of any race and are "destined to reach place in the world equal to that, if not greater than, that of the white race."
BRITISH FOREIGN POLICY "We see (the British people) to be moving toward some fresh perils, toward one of those great historic watersheds which divide one war from another. It is an idle attempt to assess the relative weight of the errors which have helped to bring us to so disappointing a pass, but at least it will be admitted that the British error, which constated in the belief that overdrawn financial demands might safely be left for subsequent adjustment, was more venal than the withdrawal of America from the Reparations Commission and the need of guerrilla more venal than the French occupation of the Ruhr. Will the day never come when Washington will give to France to Europe something in its place?
H. A. L.*PARKER, in The Edinburgh Review.
DEFINITION OF ART
"Art is less a message than a revelation: a revelation primarily to the artist, and only secondarily by the artist, of the sense of beauty actually or potentially in things. What essentially distinguishes the artist is not ability to make himself intelligible to others—this is the definition of craftsmanship—but the ability to see more clearly and profoundly than the average man the aesthetic possibilities of the world about him."
LAURENCE BUERMEYER, in The Dial.
THE METAPHYSICS OF THOUGHT
"Men fear thought as they fear nothing else on earth—more than ruin, death, and destruction. This is adversive and revolutionary, destructive and terrible; thought is meridious to privilege, established conventions and institutions, and comfortable habits; thought is anarchic and lawless; thought is great and free, the light of the world, and the chief glory of man."
BERTRAND RUSSELL in Vanity Fair.
TASTE AND SMELL
"If we try to put the chemical sense second, and the sense of taste third, we fail to put the chemical sense in their proper order. The sense of taste is of biological significance mainly in relation to the discrimination of whole some food from unwholesome food and as a preparatory stimulus which makes meals more profitable. But part of the preparatory value of taste depend on the prior condition of being hungry."
J. ARTHUR THOMSON, In Jack O' London' Weekly.
"WHICH WAY"
"The spectacle of the United States in the six years since 1918 does not lift the heart. In politics, in commerce, in leadership and in movements of thought and action the plane has been low, the direction self-centered, the scope narrow, and vision has been notably absent. In spite of feverish activity and a rather hysterical pursuit of power, the plane has been dull, with a definite slant toward vulgarity on one hand and materialism on the other".
HENRY SEIDEL CANBY in The
JOHN W. DAVIS
"The Democrats, when they pledged to the unexpected uproar of his (Davis) nomination were sliding down from the heights of conviction on which they had waged such a perilous battle, and they were running away from the realities of American politics. A progressive for reasons which we elaborate elsewhere would have precisely for no reason at all connected his progressivism to vote for Davis. From the progressive point of view his high character and abilities are simply irrelevant. It he is elected President he will place his high character and abilities at the service of economic and social conceptions which if the progressives are right can only result in damage to the American Nation."
—From The New Republic.
THE SUBJECTION OF WOMEN
"Women are trying hard to attain complete equality with men. Since the war they have replaced, supplemented and co-operated with men in every conceivable and some inconceivable ones. But, Like the Colored Americans, women are destined to wait quite a while longer before they are fully empowered. The Negro cannot forget that the Negro once his slave and therefore supposed to be his inferior. Neither can a man forget that woman is supposed to be the weaker sex and should remain so."
H. WALLACE THURMAN. In
The Outlook Magazine.

IT TOOK ALL STARS TEN INNINGS TO WIN FROM MERCHANTS
Last Sunday's game at Goodyear can be likened to World series games being played between the New York Giants and the Senators. Surely no game was more bitterly contested than Sunday's struggle that finally went to the All Stars by a 5-4 score in ten innings.
From the time that the first man up in the first inning doubled off Munion until, Bob Fagen crossed the plate with the winning run in the tenth inning the result was always in doubt.
Pasadena started with a rush and had three men on base in the first inning with only one out and failed to scope.
The All Stars counted on a single by Savage and a timely double by Fagen.
Incidentally Fagen batted and fielded like Frish all day long, his leaping catch of Allman's liner in the sixth inning with the bases loaded saved two runs.
Sixth Inning
Merchants—E. Haas out, Chico to Adams. Cline singled infield, and Fannin likewise. Carpenter safe on Jackson's error. Fagin leaped into the air making a sensational catch of Allman's liner doubling Fannin at second. The bases were filled and Fagin received a big hand. Hits 2, runs 0, errors 1.
All Stars—Butcher safe on Fannin's error. Slowtime batting for Jackson forced Butcher at second. Wilson fanned. Slowtime out stealing second. Hits 0, runs 0, errors 1.
Seventh Inning
Back to the scoring the All Stars added two more markers in the second to have the game in hand but the Merchants put over one run in the third and two in the fourth and the game was again even. They battled this way until the eighth when Slowtime batting for Jackson singled sending Butcher, who had singled to third from which base he scored on a wild pitch. That one run was not enough because the Merchants staged a world series ninth inning rally pushing over a run and knotting the score again.
Fagen, the first man up for the All Stars in tenth, singled and was advanced to second by Adams and scored on Fannin's error and the game was over.

Those w h o passed through the turnstiles to the Collisum, to see the U.S.C.—Pomona foot ball game last Saturday saw a game that was worth twice the price of admission. It was a great game, U. S.C. winning 14 to 0.
---
Many looked for the Mighty
Jake Moore Trojan Varsity to run up a high score over Pomona, but the latter team was much stronger than expected and time after time turned back the Trojan offense that seemed certain to score. Coach Henderson of U.S.C. started the same team against Pomona as he did against Caltek with the exception of left guard in which position was our own Brice Taylor, who played a stellar game through practically the entire contest, being relieved in the fourth
Riddle Stars
"Honey" Earle, full back on the Trojan team, who created such a sensation the Saturday before against Caltek with his wonderful line plunging, failed against Pamona's fighting line, and "Our Johnny Riddle" who had graced the side lines due to boils on his neck was substituted in the second period when Gus Henderson found he had to throw everything he had in the game to win. This was John's 1924 debut to the foot ball fans and let me say right here with twenty thousand others who witnessed the performance it was a great one. Johnny plowed through Pamona's line consistently where his other team mates failed. On the offense he resembled Halley's comet as he shot through the opposing line and on the defense his work was just as sterling.
Johnny paved the way for victory carrying the ball to Pomona's five yard line where Capt. Hawkins carried it over for the Trojans' first touchdown. The fighting Pomona team seemed to say as the French in the World War, "They shall not pass", but Johnny was not to be denied and he seemed to say "I shall pass" and he did.
U. S. C.'s second touchdown was made in the third period under similar conditions. This ended the scoring and the game tucked safely away our heroes, Riddle and Taylor were taken out of the game amid an enthusiastic demonstration and sent to the showers.
Next game next Saturday, U. S. C. vs Arizona.
ST. LOUIS STARS HERE OCT.18TH
A change in the playing dates of the St. Louis Stars has delayed their arrival here one week. Instead of opening here October 12th the first appearance of these players will be on October 19th.
Manager Cobber wires that he is expecting to bring some of the greatest week in the East has made it possible Negro Stars in baseball and an extra to get their names on Winter League Contracts.
In the meantime Manager Jasper is getting Goodyear park in shape building boxes and new ticket offices in order to accommodate the large crowds that will turn out to greet the St. Louis Stars.
ANGELEN RETURNED

Mr. W. B. Ford, father of Mrs. Steddlefold is survived by the Steddlefold Seldon, and Popes, an aldea another daughter, Mrs. Clent Bradley of Ft. Worth, including all told, nine children.
From an authentic source comes the information that a new baseball park, that will be the home of Negro baseball players, will be built and completed in time for an opening game on Sunday, October nineteenth.
Lonnie Goodwin, one of the pioneer managers and developers of baseball talent hereabouts will manage the team of players that are to be recruited from the pennant winning teams of the Negro National and Eastern Leagues.
The first game will be played against a team of Major League players under the management of Joe Pirronne.
Altho the time is short and work is just starting on the stands today (Thursday), the plant is expected to be in readiness a week from Sunday.
WATTS MONARCHS ALSO WILL PLAY AT GOODYEAR IN FIRST GAME OF DOUBLE HEADER
Next Sunday will be the last day for the All tars to get even with the Kant Skore Piston Club for the two defeats the Kant Skores have handed the All Stars. After Sunday the All Stars will start playing the St. Louis Stars and after the Stars will come Major and Minor League Clubs.
For an additional dish, the Watts Monarchs will play the All Stars a game beginning at 1:30 P. M. A time limit will be put on the first game so that the fans can take in two games and then get home in time for dinner.
WILLS WOULD OUTPOINT
DEMESEY
New York, N. Y., Oct 6.—(By The Associated Negro Press)—A correspondent of Grantland Rice, noted sports writer, writes him to the effect that in an engagement between Harry Wills and Champion Jack Dempsey, Wills would win on points.
"A good defensive boxer can tie Dempsey up badly," the correspondent writes, Brennan did for 10 rounds until he became, too arm weary and too leg weary to go on. Tom Gibbons did for 15 rounds, although outweighed by 15 pounds. Wills a much stronger and a much bigger man than Dempsey, and a fine defensive boxer, would smother Dempsey's attack. I doubt that Wills could knock him out. But he would outpoint Dempsey and get the decision, if a decision were allowed. Dempsey wouldn't hit Wills even as as he hit, his Gibbons and Gibbons left the ring unmarked. An hour later he was playing with his kids as if no fight had ever taken place."

THIRD GAME A TIE

Errors Prove Costly, Kansas City Monarchs Coming Thru With 6 to 2 Decision
Hildale lost the first game of the colored World Series to the Kansas City Monarchs yesterday afternoon at the Phillies' ball park. The score was 6 to 2.
Ed Bolden's clan outhit the invaders from the West, but eight Hildale errors proved of great value to the Kansas City team.
Bullet Rogan, the Monarch's premier pitcher, had the Hildale sluggers well in hand throughout. Cockrell pitched good ball for Hildale except in the sixth inning, but contributed largely to his own downfall by letting loose three wild throws and fumbling an easy roller.

DARKTOWN FOLLIES O
HIPPODROME O
Ragtime Billy Tucker was all smiles on the Avenue Monday following the very enthusiastic reception received by his Darktown Follies at the opening Sunday.
It seemed as though everybody in town was bent on seeing the Follies in their first real appearance since the return from the Hawaiian Islands.
Return Engagement
With the week almost gone and the crowds still continuing to come it is quite likely that the Follies will be held over for another week or brought back at a later date.
Dixieland Jubilee
The Follies are billed as a Dixieland Jubilee and the players make a real Jubilee of the twenty or so minutes that they are on the Hippodrome stage.
Billy has gathered a real company under his wing and it will not be surprising to see him in the very near future heading not only an act but an entire two hour and a half show.
STUDIO GOSSIP
The results of the many calls received by the Black Stars can be observed in most any feature picture now showing at the uptown theatres. If you care to see any of your favorites drop in at the California and see "Barbara Friedchie" which includes in the supporting cast, Mammy Peters and Jim Blackwell.
Other productions having Race actors in the cast are, "Captain Blood", "The Sea Hawk", "The Navigator", "The Thief of Bagdad", "Abraham Lincoln" and "Sundown Limited".

THE PUBLIC
By Lloyd C. Grimm
The Belles Lettres Clug initiated the beginning of another scholastic year last Friday, Oct. 3, with a program unprecedented in the history of the organization. Dr. James Main Dixon, L. H. D., (Doctor of Polite Literature), F.R.S.E., was presented to the club by Mr. Chauncey Townsend, who is First Vice President and Chairman of the Program Committee. Introducing him with poise, dignity, and select phraseology, Mr. Townsend briefly sketched the life and achievements of Dr. Dixon. Dr. Dixon, a man closer to eighty than seventy, ripe in age and experience, spoke at length on "Art and Religion". His speech abounded in such trenchant sentences as these: "Art is the hunt after perfection"; "Religion satisfies our hunger after perfection"; "Decadent art is an illusion of beauty"; and a series of other sentences which were not futile in summoning a higher reverence and appreciation for cultured art.
Another feature of the program was a solo by Mr. Johnson, who resonantly and clearly enunciated two classic numbers, and thus received great applause.
In addition to Colored crews, some of the coast wise ships are carrying Colored orchestras.
W. R. Holland dropped into the Eagle office for a visit and reports that he is having a very successful season on the S. S. Dorothy Alexander, with his orchestra.
The orchestra is known as Holland's S. S. Dorothy Alexander Orchestra.
W. R. Holland is the leader and plays the piano; C. S. Adams, cornet; A. J. Jones, trombone and Oscar Moore plays the drums.
The Dorothy runs regularly between Los Angeles and Seattle.

TIRE THIEVES AGAIN AT WORK
After a fall or several months during which time car owners, enjoyed safety to a certain extent, the thieves are again at work stealing tires right and left from the careless car owners who fail to use horse sense and precaution.
No less than eighteen cars have reported stripped cars of spare tires. In one or two instances the goods have been recovered but in the majority of the cases its just too bad they've lost their tires for good. There is a saying if they want a thing they'll get it, but why not instead of just denoting it to them, make it a little bit hard for them to secure it by placing it under lock and key. This method may detain them long enough in their effort to rob your car that they may be caught in the act and captured on driven off. At any rate try it and save yourself thirty, forty, or fifty dollars, and a pile of worry. Lock your car and spare tires.
NEW MODELS ARRIVING Coming Season To Be Best In Auto's History
The new designs in the auto world are daily arriving. Every day a new model passes us on the street, and attracts the attention of every one. However times are changing and we don't see so many standard makes coming out with yearly designs as we used to. This policy of new models every year is fast diminishing in favor of a standard car with standard equipment. Better material and workmanship and less frills. especially is this so of the higher priced cars. However after everything is said and done we still have yearly models. The biggest change thus far noticed is the passing of the V. type in favor of the straight eights and sixes. The reason for this radical change is borne out in the discovered facts that after several years of the V types in practical use the upkeep is much greater than on the eights and sixes with no increased value as to performance.
But everyone has his choice, and now that new models are arriving to compete with standard makes that make no changes it is a personal matter as to what is your choice. But its safe to say whatever you want can be found in Los Angeles so look them over and take your pick.

Mr. Louis Blodgett and family have purchased a straight eight Packard which will replace the street car.
Dr. Nelson is again using his sport Marmon, all damages having been repaired.
Does any one know who the young lady is that recently purchased a new straight eight Packard sedan? Some one page her.
Mrs. Jack Claybourn is again at the wheel of her Reo after spending her vacation in San Francisco.
Mr. Thaddeus Winston has a Cadillac appetite. The Dodge is losing its flavor.
Harry Patterson, who conducts the Central Avenue Auto Livery has several new cars added to his growing business.
Mr. Connie Frambo of Ford Coupe fame, we learned, was greatly embarrassed and humiliated recently by having to be towed home. How the mighty all.
We learn as we go to print from reliable sources that Mr. Walter Gordon of the Climax Realty Company has exchanged his high priced Ford for an automobile. Name coming up.
Looks like we are to have a real auto show after several efforts. Watch the columns of this paper for first hand information bearing on same.

Motorists have bee nshowing much interest lately in the construction of the Pacific Electric Railway's tunnel, which will extend, when completed, from the Hill street station to First street and Lake Shore avenue. At present crews of workmen are boring in from the northern portal at First and Lake Shore, as well as at Fourth and Flower streets. In the latter place they are working toward Hill street, between Fourth and Fifth, as well as toward First.
The tunnel, when completed, will take the big red cars off of Figueroa Street, while it will also remove the Hollywood Boulevard cars from Hill street. As a consequence much of the present traffic congestion will also be a thing of the past.
