But it so happened that prominent reality dealer He has lived a frugal and abstemious life, himself, and there is nothing in his environment that should make him sympathetic with protecting the rights of the poor and the laboring classes.

LOLA TURNER The leader of the gang is known and he is a big official of the Ku Klux Klan, so it is said, Oren Bailey, a cracker of the first water, reputed as a Graham real estate dealer was in the forefront of the pack which composed this mob. Graham is just outside the city limits of Los Angeles and this side of Watts. The Eagle in all sincerity calls up on all peace officials of Los Angeles County to protect this widow woman in her rights and especially her right to live in peace upon her own property which she has legally and rightfully acquired by call for a vigorous prosecution of the cowards who intimidated her and drove her from her own home. This is a serious proposition and one which calls for the support of all law abiding citizens and we are calling upon all who stand for law and order to join in throwing the arms of the law of protection, guaranteed under our constitution for this lone woman in her rights. The story follows: Enterprising Race Woman And Property Owner Driven From Home By White Mob Mrs. Lola Turner, a prosperous and industrious Colored woman who now resides at 1350$^\circ$ East 43rd street, this city, recently purchased some choice property at Graham Station, this city, a settlement about two miles this side of Watts. It seems that Mrs. Turner made some inquiry as to sentiment relative to residence there by members of our group and was advised that there was no real objection against color or Race of any resident and, therefore she struck a fair bargain for a piece of realty in this section and made the purchase, the place being desired for her residence. Subsequently Mrs. Turner, together with her sister and nephew, moved into the place. Shortly after moving there, this place was visited by a self-appointed committee consisting of about three or four (white) members who bluntly advised the Colored residents that their presence in Graham was not desired, and inquired how long would it require them to move away. It happened at this time that Mrs. Turner was not present and the other occupants there could not give the "committee" any definite information on the point of inquiry. Within about a week thereafter, this "committee" enlarged itself by the addition of seven or eight members; and the band of about ten men (white) called at Mrs. Turner's residence again after dark and began knocking on the door; and they knocked. pounded labor.

R. Thompson, who immediately took charge of the "committee" and the whole situation. The rough element of the committee soon dispersed and two of them, the leaders, asked for a conference with Mrs. Turner, which was granted and they entered the house. In this conference, the most anxious how soon could Mrs. Turner was how soon could Mrs. Turner move aay, and if she could move by Sunday, it being Friday then. After being informed that such would be impossible, these leaders inquired as to the consideration paid for the property; and they finally wound up by abruptly informing the Colored resident that Graham would not tolerate the presence of any Colored people, and, in effect, continuance of residence there would result in serious trouble to Mrs. Turner, and that the property would have to be sold or rented to some white person. Owing to the nature of the threats made, and fearing personal violence, Mrs. Turner moved to Los Angeles the next day. She has employed attorney ylvester isonberg to investigate the matter, with a view to civil and criminal prosecutions. At the last call from the mob there were 150 and 50 in the gang. Hon. Joseph Scott Gives Telling Reasons For Support Of Judge Bledsoe Judge Benjamin F. Bledsoe The following statement, explaining his reasons for advocating the candidacy of Judge Benjamin F. Bledsoe for mayor of Los Angeles, was given on yesterday by Joseph Scott, one of the best known attorneys of the city and a staunch friend of the laboring man. Judge Bledsoe appeals to me as the best available candidate for Mayor. If elected, he will bring to the discharge of his municipal duties great executive ability, tireless energy and a passionate devotion to public service, from which no sinister influence can swerve him. His long experience on the Bench and his acute powers of observation have made him particularly competent to unravel in the complicated controversial problems which confront this community. He is not class conscious. While it is said of him that big business will control him, I have no fear but that he will prove quite courageous he will quire to resist any such blandishness if the same are offered him. On the other hand, for those who toll with their hands and are in sympathy with the laboring classes, it should be remembered that Judge Bledsoe's attitude on the Bench in injunction proceedings has simply been in accordance with the law of the land, which as a judge of the court, he has sworn to uphold. If there is no right to trial by a jury in injunction proceedings, that is not the fault of Judge Bledsoe, but of Congress. A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL On The Constitution As a former judge of the State and Federal Courts over a period of many years, Benjamin F. Bledsoe, candidate for the office of mayor of Los Angeles, has been a student of all things concerning the fundamentals of our government, and particularly of the Constitution of the United States, the foundation on which this great republic has been built. JUDGE BENJ. F. BLEDSOE Speaking last wee on the subject of the Constitution Judge Bledsoe said: "Inviolability of life, liberty and property is the basic and fundamental principle of civil liberty as defined and guaranteed by the Constitution of the American government. It is the ruck upon which it seemingly may be lost sigt of because in spite of our best efforts to the contrary, human right will be violated—as the guiding principle of our conduct it reigns supreme and all powers of government are pledged to its enforcement. Under its beneficent sway the humblest citizen on the East Side in Los Angeles is no less the tender object of our solicitude than is the mightiest magnate on Wall Street in our growing metropolis. And, following the great thought of Burke, the moment the principle fails to protect the humblest citizen, that moment the doom of the magnate has been sounded. Deprived of this assertion of human right and its protective guaranties, 'liberty would be a lie, 'law 'the mere mouthings of a despotic whim, and 'Justice' the enforced synonym of etenal wrong. "But our Constitution went further than merely to assert that such a right was necessary concomitant to the life of a fee people. It provided adequate means for the adequate enforcement of the right asserted. "Kings had had their term and the literacy inevitably associated with them had long grown intolerable. The Barons who had sufficed for a time to hold the Kings in check, themselves had established an oligarchy subversive of liberty. Parliament with unrestricted powers were prone to misrepresent if not overweave their constituencies. So, in the American scheme, as a distinct advance but as a part of the inexorable logic of a written Constitution, the construction and protection of the rights and liberties of the people were placed in the hands of a body furthest removed from popular reac, yet least liable to be attracted by a misuse of power. Into the hands of a constitutional judiciary. "The Constitution is but a compact among our people irrevocable in its nature but nevertheless nothing but a compact, a contract defining our mutual rights and liabilities. As such it is to be measured, the rights guaranteed, the limitations prescribed, are to be ascertained and announced as similar features of other contractual relations throughout the history of the race have been definitely and authoritatively arrived at, through a and water rights on the Boulder Dam project, where the Federal government would have an opportunity to observe the strong, personality of Judge Bledsoe. In view of the apathy in municipal elections, and the large number of people who come to our community unfamiliar with our local needs, trust the friends of Judge Bledsoe will spare no effort to make his election a gratifying success.

LOS ANGELES, CALIF., APRIL 3, 1925 eath at aks A Real Treat To Los A n One of the most unique entertainments ever staged in Los Angeles, a city noted for uniqueness in the entertainment field, is the Kiddies' Minstrel, which originated in the mind of Mrs. Lauretta Buller, and was successfully staged by her two years ago. Since then she has repeated her minstrel twice with more success each time. Mrs. Butler is one of the best known musicians in the city, not only as performer, but as a teacher, and probably her greatest popularity is due to her wonderful success with children. Only those who have had the pleasure of attending the Kiddies' Minstrel in the past can realize the big things that can be done with children. Many things the average person would almost say was impossible for a child to learn and do. Every entertainment in an adult minstrel, is featured by the kiddies, interlocutors, dancers, contortionists, singers, band, end men, et al; and no child over fifteen years is used in the minstrel. Mrs. Butler and her assistants promise that the minstrel this year will far excel anything they have introduced, and the kiddies Minstrel will be one of the biggest stage hits this season. It will be held at Labor Temple. May 11th, for benefit of St. Philips Episcopal Church. Pacific Beach Club Opening On March 22nd Huge Success "The people of Southern California proved, in no uncertain way, last Sunday that they were strongly behind their new beach club," said Mr. Peace of the Pacific Beach Sales Organization, today. "It is my wish that the folks of Southern California thoroughly understand now that this club and beach with its many and diversified privileges will be open only to those and their families who can show membership cards. From present indications I would advise those who really want a place where they may spend some time on the beach to get behind this movement now. Not only are the prices of membership certificates to advance in the near future but there are only to be a very limited number sold and that number may be reached at any time. "Building will progress just as rapidly as it is humanly possible for competent workmen to erect the various structures. Piles are now on the ground and are being driven as rapidly as possible." MEN'S DAY AT HAMILTON M. E. CHURCH Dr. C. V. Gilliland, head of the department of history, University of Southern California, will preach at Hamilton M. E. Church, E. 18th St. and Naomi Avenue, Sunday morning at 11:00 o'clock. Dr. Gilliland is a great preacher and those who avail themselves of the opportunity of hearing him will enjoy a profitable and inspirational address. The public is cordially invited to attend services at Hamilton Sunday, and not only enjoy the presence of Dr. Gilliland, but also to enjoy the Men's program at the evening hour. submission to. and determination by competent and disinterested judges in the courts of the law. impact on its but our such squarabed, needed tractory and agh a "Under such a Constitution, so construed and so enforced, we are the inheritors and possessors of true liberty, not undefined," illimitable insolent liberty, the Liberty that is but a counterpart of license, but liberty under law, nay, more than that, liberty with justice, the sort of liberty that makes the well being of the nation as a whole the true test of the boundary of individual action.

Former U. S. District Judge Benjamin F. Bledsoe will be the principal speaker of the night. Bubbling and boiling, the contents of the political pot in the present race are intensely interesting to our people, and the presence at this meeting of one of the principal mayoralty candidates is sure to attract a large crowd. A good program of music will be interspersed through the evening's speeches. San Bernardino Citizens, Regardless of Race, Hold Judge Bledsoe In Highest Esteem What The Home. Folks Say No better testimonial can accrue to any man regardless of his station in life, than the esteem and regard in which he is held in the community in which he was reared and in consideration of the fact that many persons are anxious to know just what estimate the Colored citizens who have known Judge Benjamin Bledsoe during his entire career in the city of San Bernardino placed upon his worth and record as a man who stands for all the people, we caused to be made, a personal investigation and find that with a unanimity seldom obtained in regard to any man, with one accord the citizens accord to him a high place in their affection and devotion as a man who stands absolutely for a square and fair deal for all. They accain his record as a man who stands for the highest ideals of citizenship and equality for all. J. H. Hamilton, 1220 Spruce St. mechanic at the Santa Fe Shops, formerly colonization promoter, and well informed citizen of an Bernardino said: "No need asking about Judge Bledsoe around hers, for while I was not a citizen of San Bernardino during his time ere, daily I hear such wonderful testimonials of his worth that I am sure that every colored citizen who lived here and knew him, will gladly testify to his friendship and interest in all groups of which our city is composed. Mr. J. R. Shipp, custodian of the big Katz Building and secretary of the Odd Fellows Lodge, who has worked at this one position for 16 years said: "Yes, while I was not intimately acquainted with Judge Bledsoe, I met him in passing every day and know of his record toward our people as entirely satisfactory and have heard nothing that would indicate that he ever by word or act displayed any other than the very highest sentiment toward them. A. J. Venerable, veteran barber, says: "Oh, yes you can have no fear of a man of the type of Judge Bledsoe. If all white men who hold public positions were of his type the Colored people would certainly receive a square deal." Wm. S. Johnson, Santa Fe employee, President of the N. A. A. C. P. said: "Judge Bledsoe stacke up all said: "Judge Bledsoe stacks up all will always receive a square deal at his hands." Taylor Swan, custodian of the City Hall. San Bernardino: says: "I cannot too strongly speak of the fair attitude of Judge Bledsoe toward all people, with a residence in this city, for more than a score of years the Bledsoe family, I can truthfully say, has been among those of our trust friends. You cannot quote me too strong when it comes to Judge Bledsoe giving all the people a square deal." H. Beal, well known adealer of this city, son of Israel Beal, pioneer citizen of San Bernardino: "Yes, I know Judge Bledsoe from s, I know Judge Bledsoe from (continued on page 4) CREATIONS OF RACE DE SIGNERS DISPLAYED AT TRINITY AUDITORIUM By Cholly Styleplus Los Angeles has had its fashion show which game to a successful close with the dropping of the final curtain about eleven thirty, Wednesday night. The members of the Phys-Art-Lit- Mo Club are probably now counting up the proceeds to see just how much the club treasury has been strength- ened. Financially the show must have been a success in that the leading Modiste, Tailors and Milliners dis- played the work of their handicraft to some eight or nine hundred ticket purchasers. (continued on page 4) IS OF SAN BERNAR- ISE JUDGE DSOE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY FOR CALIFORNIA Insurance is one of the most flourishing lines of business in which Negroes are engaged and is today the largest field of business from the standpoint of capital concentratd and employment given. In many of th Southern and Eastern States our people boast of big life insurance companies and successful business enterprises. Our population here in California is continually growing and likewise the demand for a life insurance company. Many injuries and requests for life insurance have been made from time to time. In order to fill the requirements of this increasing demand among our people, to cultivate the spirit of self-help and progress around us who live in the West, to follow the example of our more successful brother in Washington, D. C., Durham, North Carolina Chicago, Ill., and other cities of the South, East, North and Middle West, a life insurance has been started in our midst, known as the Golden State Guarantee Fund Insurance Company, home office, Los Angeles, Calif. Mr. Wm. Nickerson, Jr., is the organizer of this company. Mr. Nickerson comes to our state with recommendations that any man could point to with just pride. Successful in the management of his own affairs and hence able to safely and successfully direct the affairs of others. A conservative and safe investor. A good bookkeeper. He established the entire bookkeeping system of the American Mutual Benefit Association, which system was approved by the Department of Insurance and Banking of the State of Texas, and is still in use, and has stood the test of every State examiner sent out by that office. For 16 years the only secretary of the American Mutual Benefit Association. (continued on page 4) Watts Talent Competing With a musical entertainment such as that presented by the Seventy-Five Voice chorus at Grant Chapel, Watts, Tuesdays evening, this community in the way of talent is giving Los Angeles proper a race for first place. To say that each number was a thriller is putting it mildly, nevertheless special mention should be made of the vocal solo by Mrs. Woods; violin rendition by H. Atwell Rose, and the Women's Quartette. The pastor, Rev. Scott is a young man with a vision, and no doubt will put over a big program for Grant Chapel, and the surrounding community. He has associated with him, such splendid young men as Messrs. Hauchins, Eggleston and Jackson. 1879 - 1925 $2.00 THE YEAR No. 44 COMMENTS By W.-J. Wheaton "Mother o'mine", subconsciously, those lines fitted through the brain as we entered the Court of Judge Lauderback where a jury, to try the young sixteen year old girl accused of murdering her mother, is being examined as to their qualification to judge of her guilt or innocence. Mother: Murder: those two words seemed to come together with such incongruity that one sensed a feeling of nausea. We watched the girl as the attorneys repeated those two words again and again as the prospective jurors were questioned, wondering how long human endurance could stand the strain. Suddenly there was a sagging of the shoulders. The wings of the Moth which played with the candle flame were burned and the Moth sank; an inert heap, to the floor. We wondered if the spirit hand of the dead mother had laid a loving touch on her head. If the mother love had come back from the grave to comfort her wayward child. Then it was that these lines came to us with a meaning that was new. "If I were drowned in the deepest sea. Mother o'mine. I know whose love would comfort me. Mother o'mine." The girl has confessed her crime. Why this needless trial? Why all of this scridid publicity? Why not place her somewhere, some place where she can not prove a menace to society? And then we would have these lines placed where she could see them on retiring and awakening. "If I were hanged on the highest hill Mother o'mine. I know whose love would follow me still. Mother o'mine." Here is something that may interest you, or at least, set you to thinking. The Racial Survey body composed of research experts from all over the United States made its report covering a period of eighteen months at an open session held at Standford University, Palo Alto, March 25th. It reported that, "with Chinese and Japanese shut off from serious competition with white labor the future labor reinforcements will come from Mexico, Porto Rico, and the Philippines. The report says that Mexican immigration has been greatly accelerated by the excluding results of the anti-alien law. In comparing the two types of immigrants from the standpoint of desirability the report says: The Oriental has apparently been of very little expense to the American community. The amount of relief and delinquency is slight. On the other hand, according to the report, the Mexican is one of the most undesirable of the immigrants. Their organizations for mutual aid and protection are primitive. The report stated that "It is reasonable to believe that the rapid increase of the Mexican population is likely to increase diseases, crime and poverty and so increase the cost to the community over and above the economic value of the Mexican as a source of labor. A study of the health of Oriental shows that 6 per cent of the Chinese and Japanese suffer from nervous diseases compared with 16 per cent of the white population. Orientals are rarely afflicted with circulatory diseases; on the other hand Chinese and Japanese are far more susceptible to epidemic diseases than the white people. Epidemics come from unsanitary conditions. The survey forgot to report that the effort to heard the races in segregated districts where they have not the political strength to demand sanitary surroundings is the one great cause of epidemics among all people. At any rate the survey gives the Orientals a fairly clean bill of health, and seems to the man "up the tree" like Oriental propaganda. On a farm near Yuba City some fiend tried to creamate an entire Japanese family. The walls of the cabin were soaked with oil and the family escaped the flames through the miraculous efforts of the father of the family who was awakened by the crackle of the flames as they licked their way to the sleeping wife and babies. Oil soaked straw was placed under the pump and fired, thus rendering it useless. The Chinese of San Francisco are building a hospital at Stockton street. The Catholics have a club for their Philippine communicans at Sutter Street. The bryophag bug seems to have come to life. We look for more than one "Roll of Honor State" to be sponged off the slate before the close of Summer. Cause! Lack of Negro labor South. PASADENA BY. MATT GOLDMAN Y. W. C. A. Briefs By Genova Stocks The High School girls of the Y. W. C. A., Grove Street Center, are hard at work trying to exceed all former records at the annual mid-winter conference at Pacific Pallisades. We were able to have three representatives, Estle Brownless, Ethelyn Hunter and Geneva Stocks, all of whom received an inspiration to do more effective work. We are now playing a series of basket ball games with the 12th St. Center girls of Los Angeles, the first of which was played on Tuesday evening, March 24th, resulting in a victory for Los Angeles. The 12th St. Center had a wonderful routing attendance, which more than increases their enthusiasm to win. A return game is scheduled within the next three weeks. Immediately after the finish of the basket ball season, a tennis tournament, indoor and volley ball season will be open. On the 19th of April, a father and daughter banquet will be held at the center and it is earnestly requested that each girl insist that her father attend this affair. Tuesday evening.

Quite a few young folks enjoyed themselves at a party given by the McDonald sisters on last Monday evening. Busic and games were the pastimes of the evening. The banquet given last Thursday evening by te Dunbar Club in honor of the Crown City Chauffeurs Association proved to be quite an elaborate affair. Covers were spread for one hundred and thirty-five persons. Program was rendered interspersed by a very delicious fried chicken dinner, which was served. Mr. Will M. Collins acted as Master of Ceremonies. The hall was gorgeously decorated with the Club colors of blue and gold. Beautiful cut flowers scattered profusely about the hall added color and splendor to the occasion. At the end of the festivities a flash-light picture was taken of the club members and their guests. On the night of March 21, at For- esters Hall, a local lodge of the Order of Knights of Pythias, N. A. & S. A. E., E. A., A. and A. was set up in Pasadena, by District Deputy Grand Chancellor, D. B.

The pastor Dr. Smith made the welcome address in which he urgently insisted that the spirit of brotherhood be more exemplified in our lives, the effect of which was quite noticeable by the close association among the men present. Mrs. Penn sang one of the most enchanting solos to which she received an encore. A solo was rendered by Mrs. Blaychettal. The Brotherhood movement in Pasadena has been quite an incentive for a closer relation between the respective group. Dr. Powell acted as Master of Ceremonies. More than 30 of our group were present all of whom report a very pleasant time.

FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH Furlong Tract, Conn. 53rd and Holmes In spite of the inclement weather on success on last Sunday were well attended beginning with the eSunday school. We are proud of the rapid growth of the adult class. We were happy to have Iro Hamilton preach for us in the morning and still happen to have our pastor preach at night as on last Sunday past the morning service at the request of the Holy Ghost was turned over to the people in the pews and at night we listened to our own Bro Luke after which many expressed themselves as having been ribly fed. Rev. Hines preached a glorious service using for his subject: "Peace, the desire of all nations." Easter promises to be a great day with us as the chool under the leadership of Miss Marshall will present a cantata well worth your hearing. Come and bring your children as there will be Easter eggs for every child present. You who would have your spiritual strength renewed attend our nightly bible study.

TRINITY MISSIONARY BAPTIST CHURCH Corner 36th and Normandie Rev. J. A. H. Eldridge, Pastor The Sunday school is the one inspirational foundation of the future growth of this church, and is the building foundation of the future church, and it is indeed interesting to attend the Sunday school and hear the young Christian and older ones reciting the bible in forms that any one would understand. The pastor spoke to the congregation at the morning service. Th B. Y. P. U. was beautifully reviewed by the pastor and Mrs. Lee, acting president. The Rev.

BIRCH STREET CHURCH OF CHRIST We are very proud to say that a good number braved the rain storm of Sunday morning and came out to Bibble school and morning worship. I dare say that no other church in the city had present and on time as old a member in the bible school as we had in the person of Bro. Robert Carr, who started earlier than usual in order to get ahead of the rain. We are younger should get a lesson from Bro. Carr. The pastor brought to us the fourth sermon of the series "Events in the Life of Christ and their relation to the church" Christian Endeavor was very good. Money was take from the treasury of the Endeavors to buy fruit for Mrs. Esther Booth James who is sick. The evening sermon was interesting. Subject: "The fruit of the spirit and of the flesh.

The pastor said that one must rid himself of selfishness and work conscientiously to advance the Kingdom of God. The evening service was the occasion of battising.

Mr. Morris Harris, Pres. Harris Safety-First Check System. 1419 West Jefferson Street, Los Angeles, California. My Dear Sir: I have made careful investigation of the Harris Safety-First Check System and take pleasure in making the following endorsement of same. For over twenty years I have found that one of the greatest menaces confronting the average merchant or individual who is compelled to give or receive bank checks has been the operations of bad check passers, and if your system could be universally adopted by banking institutions the loss to merchants and individuals on account of said operations would be practically eliminated. In view of the fact that I am neither financial y or otherwise interested in your organization, as might be suggested from our names, I wish to state that this endorsement is given with no anterior motive, but on y issued from a public-spirited statement, as sincerely believe your system of check protecting is as near perfect as possible, and if adopted by banking institutions as above suggested would result in the savings of millions of collars to merchants and individuals which is now lost as a result of this class of crime.

So it crawled cut on land and look at. What is lived on after it got to land and how it breathed we cannot say for a fish has a hard time breathing on land and last usually but a few minutes till they are dead fish, fit only for prey or the trying pan. But this was an unusual fish, for it was a miracle worker and therefore shall I say say it? It was a God, for was it not a Creator? Evolution potting. All life is created under the laws that govern that life. When a jelly fish becomes a fish vertebrate it is a new creation. For even a trout can not change itself into a sucker, unless perchance it be a harlequin or a god. No man has ever known an animal or a plant or a spirit to beet, anything except its bird. A donkey was never known to bear or beget a horse, nor a dog a cat, nor an apple seed to grow by nature into a peach tree. The old Bible is evidently everlastingly right about it. But we are not after the right, we are after a scientific answer. We are not after factor, we are scientists. We want theories. We don't want a personal, spiritual God. We want a fish god as the Philistines had, a dragon, if you please. Then we can praise ourselves and be proud of ourselves and glory in ourselves and deny the brotherhood of men, and we can scorn our weaker fellows and salve our self made conscience with the doctrine of the survival of the fittest. Nor will there be any Bible carrying authority bidding us to love God with all our hearts and our neighbors, as our selves. For are we not all poor harbors lost fishes that got lost from the sea and even now we don't know why to do with ourselves? How do we know all this? Now as I have said, Nobody has ever known anything to beget except after its kind. But science that wonderful son of Olympus, that wonderful successor of the ancient Baal, hath found some bones and told us so. And it bibdeth us to throw away our Bibles that teach us of God and heaven and hell and eternal judgments to come; and justice and truth and love and peace and holy truth and believe the romance of the bones. And lo and behold we have seen some of the bones, and they stink with head flesh and decayed marrow just as the romance of hem stinks FRIDAY, APRIL 3, 1925 with the defification of matter and the pride of human intellect is gone astray, and lost from God. We stand and sniff. But our God is a fish. But, as I said in my narrative, the fish grew tired of being a fish so he came out on dry land and said "What shall I be?" And so he hopped about on his fins I suppose till he lost them and got legs instead, and turned his gills into cars and added some more brains to his head. How he got breath all this time we do not know, for a fish cannot breath long in the air. But may he be first became a truite. Anyway he wondered what to be. Then he decided to be a monkey. Then the monkey got tired of befrih a monkey and lo, one day he became A MAN—a prehistoric man with tushes and tasks and so forth, but a man. Wonderful fish. Other fishes have stayed fish and people the sea and fed mankind, but this fish became a man. Never has there been another such fish. No fisherman ever feels when he bags a lot of fish that he is cutting off another human race. And monkeys now—monkeys can be taught to smoke, chew, wear red caps and jackets, count, and do lots of things, but nobody ever saw a monkey that mothered a human child or one that fathered a human being, European, Asiatic or African. Nobody ever found a race that traced themselves back to monkeys and fish till we got to a self-made generation that wanted to get rid of God and tried to solve in another way, problems that God had already solved for them in His way. But species are nimproved! I grant it—but never does our kind change into another kind. We get black cats from black cats, but never do we get bear cubs or even tigers. The law is alternately flat. So the fish that changed a law so fixed, inexorable, unstable, must have been a god. We have never seen this fish. Therefore we seminary students and educated theologians and would be philosophers, and pseudo-scientists, do gladly follow the hazy mazes of our imagination and worship him or her or it. What was it? Anchorm here we are, the offspring of a fish that decided to be a terrapin, the children of a terrapin that decided to be a monkey, the progeny of a monkey that broke the irrefranfricant law that governs all monkeys down to today, and decided to be a man. And some of us, the most monkey like of all the ages, have declared ourselves gods and had statues made to ourselves for other (Continue on Page 4) FRIDAY, APRIL 3, 1925 1317 CENTRAL AVENUE CAMOHAIRCO MARCELL WAVING MRS.

Deneen of this city opens an opportunity for reminiscences, analyses, and comparisons. My first knowledge of Medill McCormick was at the time of his approaching marriage to Miss Ruth Hanna, of Cleveland, daughter of the late Senator Hanna. I was living at Cleveland at the time. The wedding ceremony was in St. Paul Episcopal church and was attended by President Roosevelt, members of the cabinet, many members of Congress and Senate and the nation's social elect. It is the white American way of felicitation and endorsement. When Theorecq, Roosevelt bolted the Republican party in 1912, Medi McCormick followed him. When he returned in 1916, McCormick was back, was elected Congressman at large from Illinois, in 1918 was a Republican candidate for United States Senator and was successful. It was during his candidacy for the Senate that I met Mr. McCormick for the first time personally through the recommendation of the late, N. C. Wright, a personal friend, Mr. Wright was from my home town in Indiana, had been associated with D. R. Hanna, Mrs. McCormick's brother, in the publication of the Cleveland News and Cleveland Leader. Senator McCormick, it has been said, was an authority on foreign affairs and French. He knew the history of the dark people of the world as few white people; he knew the American racial problem. He was unfortunate in the limitations of his willingness to use his knowledge and power for the greatest good. Some ascribe this to heredity. Be that as it may it possessed him and was very evident in dealing with him on matters of adjustment. For example during the long efforts in behalf of the Dyer-Anti Lynching measure, Senator McCormick worked for it, but always frankly doubted its passage. James Weldon Johnson of New York, found him a ready advisor. The Senator extended the courtesies of his office in the Capitol building to Mr. Johnson. Then, he felt aggrieved, later on, when DuBois, in the crisis referred to him as a snob. The Senator was sensitive about newspaper comment. He was formerly publisher of the Chicago Tribune, which is now published by his brother. R. R. McCormick and cousin. Joseph M. Patterson. The Tribune policy on racial adjustment has been detrimental to racial justice, but this did not bring him the support from the group he craved in Illinois. Haiti and Santo Domingo were pet subjects with the Senator. He had great influence with the affairs in these republics, and had visited them many times. It was through Senator McCormick that Napoleon B. Marshall of New York was appointed to Haiti, but it is no act to boast about, for the appointment has never reached the dignity promised by the Senator. Senator McCormick asked the writer, in Washington, for a man of Capfa in Marshall's type. They were there three years, but never on the there three eyears, but never on the plans that his ability and experience entitle him to serve noon. The Senator was an admirer of Frederick Douglass. On one occasion in Washington, at a Douglas event, presided over by the late Phil Brown, and attended by the late Mary C. Taltbert and the Senator, there were many fine speches on Douglass. When the Senator arose to speak he said: "You have said everything about Douglass but one of the most important—he was a statesman". The Senator played a ragged game of politics, because he was more interested in statecraft. His death, indirectly may be attributed to this. He was brave, but he was most bitterly disappointed when defeated for the nomination for the Senate by Gov.ernor Deneen.Gov. Deneen, out of office twelve years, had what Senator McCormick had failed to build up properly, organization. Senator McCormick was statesmanlike, and moods of congeniality and cordiality that would make any man admire him and love him. On the other hand, he could exhibit moods which, he told a group of us one day, would frighten those even closest to him, "but they understand me, and know it will soon be over." Colored Illinois admired the ability of Senator McCormick, but somehow could not accept his sincerity of purpose. This fact the Senator often commented upon to many. He has spoken in Chicago on the South side many many times, and he always spoke well. He has made himself a "good fellow" at the Appomattox Club, and other places, but he could never get the sweep of the masses. Members of the Southern California Alumni Association:—Regular meeting of the Association this coming Sunday, April 5th, instead of the second Sunday, which is Easter Sunday.

"TO ERR IS HUMAN: TO FORGIVE IS DIVINE" A young man, one of our city's best is languishing in the county jail. He erred, he wronged society; but he left no lasting wound upon the body politic. He but made a mistake; Now he realizes it. Now he is ready to do due penance. In spite of the fact that it would be a social and economic waste to allow this, who has a vast wealth of natural ability, a mind replete with the power of keen analysis, an unusual degree of intelligence, a vivid imagination, and all this with comparatively little academic training, waste his youth behind prison walls and to risk becoming a hardened criminal one of the many social and civic organizations that he served to the atmost of his abilities, has come to his defence. Why? They say that he was "biggy". They say it is not right to uphold him in his wroneeding. They say that to help him would be to justify his deeds. They say all manner or things that smack of drivel and hypnosis. Because his spirit was as yet unbroken, because he failed to give recognition to their high and lofty offices, and because he was thoughtless in many respects, as comes with minor successes in this scuffle on the part of our younger generation in its effort to gain prominence and recognition, he was biggy. How many persons are there at whom you can point the finger of guilt? How many have broken a great number of social laws and yet are "getting by"? In fact, so many who have done this very thing are standing high positions until we are forced to admit this Discretion, rather than Virtue, is its own reward. Yet they say that to help Wooten would be to justify his misdeeds. His struggle is to regain the respect of others, his battle to pay debts, his fight for position, will be more punishment than a life sentence would be to a person of coarser sensibilities. The one is punishment; but the time in prison would be a sinful waste. This true that he did wrongly; but those who have visited him be lieve that altho he has gone thru a hard school, he has learned his lesson well. A bed is sometimes necessary in order that good may be seen. A leg is broken so that it may mend straight. Our organizations assert this, that they are ours; but "the I speak with the voice of men and angels, and have not charity. I become as a sounding brass and a tinkling cymbal" Now is the time for the persons who be lieve in social justice, for the groups who say many beautiful things about right and wrong, about helping the fallen, about the prodigal son, and so forth, to practice what they preach. Let us rally with big-minded individuals such as Atty. Jennings, and put forth an earnest effort to help this young man. Film Shows Control Of Foot And Mouth Disease Foot and mouth disease, the dread animal plague that made an appearance last year in the United States and was controlled after prompt use of the raical bue effective American method of control, forms the theme for a new motion picture that has been released by the United State Department of Agriculture under the title, "Suppressing Foot and Mouth Disease." The film contains many scenes that were photographed in 1914, the last previous outbreak in this country, when the malady spread through 22 States before it was finally brought under control. Most of the other scenes were photographed in 1924 in California. Allusion is made in the film to the quickly controlled out1 break that appeared in Texas, also in 1924. Among the scenes are some depicting stricken animals, the strict methods of quarantine, the thorough care that is taken by State and Federal inspectors to prevent the spread of the malady, and the release of infected farms after thorough disinfection and 60 days of waiting for reappearance of signs of the disease. The picture brings out the widespread distribution, and epidemic character of the disease in other parts of the world, and makes the promise, "With your help, State and Federal officials will keep this country free from foot and mouth disease and prevent here the enormous losses which other countries suffer". "Suppressing Foot and Mouth Disease", which is a contribution rfom the Bureau of Animal Industry, is two reels in length. It will be circulated through the film distribution system of the Department of Agriculture and the co-operating Sfate institutions. Copies may be borrowed for short periods, the only cost being the payment of transportation charges both ways, or may be bought at the manfacturing charge by authorized persons and institutions. That the addition of milk to the regular grain ration of growing chicks leads to a speedy increased rate of growth is a conclusion reached by Federal poultry specialists who have studied the matter experimentally. The experiments are still in progress. The conclusion agrees wit the experience of commercial poultrymen who have included milk in the rations of young chickens. Another experiment conducted by the United States Department of Agriculture which promises to be of practical importance is on the relative efficiency of mash rations containing animal proteins. The results thus far bear out those of previous years' work to the effect that the addition of certain mineral salts to vegetable proteins makes them compare favorably with animal proteins as a protein supplement for poultry. Unless the minerals are used the protein of animal origin is more efficient. These experiments are conducted at the Bureau of Animal Industry farm, located at Beltsville, Md., near Washington, D. C. Last year the Government poultry specialists hatched about 7,500 chicks with good results. The fowls are used for a great variety of studies in breeding, feeding, and management. COMMENÇEMENT EXERCISES OF BIGGERS'S BUINESS COLLEGE BIG SUCCESS (Contributed) On Tuesday evening, March 17th, S o'clock, was the time set for the commencement exercises of this commercial institution, well known throughout the nation, having students, and graduates, at work in every state in the Union. This marked an epoch in the history of the institution, being the 22nd Annual Commencement of the business college, doing a live work in the great metropolis of the west. At the hour of S P. M., the Grand March was played by Prof. H. D. Greer; the faculty and graduates ascended from the upper chamber of the business and Professional Men's Club House; entering the grand reception room and program auditorium. The Invocation was given by Rev. R. W. Underwood. All the musical numbers of the program were par excellent; Dr. H. Claude Hudson, president of the local body of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored people was programmed to deliver the address to the graduates and was present at the escheduled hour, and delivered a masterful address far-reaching in logic and inspiration. His subject was "Diligence in Business." Pres. Chas, A. Biggirs presented diploma to the three mid-winter graduates and announced that he had already assigned them positions, thus making 455 graduates now holding his creative positions. At the close of the program, the following persons made inspiring complimentary talks in honour of the institution, its works and program rendered: Prof. H. D. Greer; Dr. R. W. Undo-wood; Rev. Stout of Chicago; Miss Lilias Harts and Prof. Wm. T. Wilkins. The evening affair closed with a grand reception. A number of out-of-town visitors were present. The graduates-are: Miss Mamie Cox, Miss Nora Lewis and Miss Florence Cadrez. SANTA BARBARA SANTA BARBARA Services at Second Baptist Church were of the usual high order last Sunday. Sunday school at 9:45 was featured by bright and prompt answers of the little ones to questions put to them. The fact was well demonstrated that great pains are being taken by the teachers to give the best in them. In the morning services of the church the pastor, Rev. H. B. Thomas took as his subject "Preparatory Service". Text Luke 22:12 "There make ready". He made plain the duty of Christians to so live that the world may see that we go gladly to the feast of the Passover which is the offering of the best that is in us for the good of that part of the world which is without Christ to the glory of God. In the evening the B. Y. P. U. was sure enough alive made so by the lively discussion of the members. All were loth to stop at the proper time; it is plainly to be seen that the pas it is plausible to be so tor did not start the work of a Sunday school room any too early as the growing crowd will of a necessity require more time in discussions of topics and subjects. At our usual time for evening services after a half hour song service the pastor mounted the pulpit and spoke ably as is his wont on the subject "Man's Obligation" Text Matt. 25:27 "Thou onghest". Following the trend of the morning sermon Rev Thomas ably pointed out the Christi an duty to his fellowman. The work on the church edifice is progressing nicely. the pastor and those assisting him are working hard on the lower floor aiming to get the dining hall completed and painted for the big dinner to be give nthe 16th of April. Members and friends alike are looking forward to the wonderful improvements to be made n our church property. The large auditorium and double aisle will fill a long felt want. "The Lord has done great things for us whereof we are glad." The Junior Deaconess Board served a bountiful repast to the pastor, and men of the church who worked on INSURANCE, NOTARY PUBLIC the church building last Wednesday night. This is a wonderful way to encourage the men without a doubt. Wonderful sand wiches, coffee chocolate cakes and ice cream. The women's boards plan to do this along while the construction wrk is ging on. All are welcomed to our services. The N. A. A. C. P. program that was rendered at the Second Baptist Church Thursday night, March 19th was one to be long remembered. Singing was fine. We must thank the public for their splendid attendance at these meetings. We are proud of the wonderful progress that this young branch is making. The Women's Self Improvement Club gae a masquerade party in the dining hall of the Second Baptist Church Thursday night which was a grand success. Prizes were awarded to Mrs. Zelia Mae Tatum, and Mrs. Blanche Seymour. A neat little sum was raised for the Club. The women's club is doing a great thing in this little town. GRIZZLI'S GRUNTS GRIZZLI'S GRUNTS By Whi Talk about hard working students. Teb Hey. That young woman whose first name is the second half of a soothing syrup that reminds you of stuff joints and gymnasium smells, also of wild flowers with the theoretic coloration, and whose last name came from a German god-patient, is just that. Besides carrying an excess program, trying to inject the difference between Cing sharp and Being flat into the kanoottles of hard-headed youngsters, teaching grammar kids under a real taskmaster, she finds time to entertain her friends in one of the most enjoyable set-to's of the semester. Our question is: When does Hazel sleep? Lovesick Lizzie has nothing on Brokenhearted Booker. We don't know that it is love; but Wright has stopped eating. It is a belief in the minds of some of the campus, philosophers that if a vote should be taken as to who is the most friendly, pleasant, modest, and unassuming coed, Miss Hortense Allen will be a likely winner. Noon in front of Mijlspaugh Hall reminds you of the caves of your front porch. Sweet cooling doves, flitting hither and thither, have nothing on some of car young couples. Some day some of these little girls' mammas are going to visit the camps. Then things will be hot sho nuff. Several of our most brilliant college studies have spent more time on the intricacies of the Charleston than on all their lessons. The next mid term will show the value of this foolishness. The fault and nutritive breath of scandal. Like a sulphurous and scorching wind from the desert, settling with a desaturated effect over building fields and sprouting meadows, directs the purity and safety of our hitherto unsullied campus. This is a warning to the culprits. Unless they cease their eviction, we shall give them due publicity. Dah now!! We pause to mourn the passing of our friend and brother scholar, co-worker, human — William Rux. (Special Correspondence) Charles Satchel Morris, Jr. of Nor- folk, Virginia, outstanding colored journalist an 'dorator in the United States, delivered two addresses in Clearwater, which captured the fancy of the great audiences which heard him as he pleaded eloquently for in- ter-racial "good-will," and the quali- ties which make men. Morris has been heard in every section of the nation, but particularly in the South. Recently he appeared before 8000 par- ses in the City Auditorium at Rich- mond, speaking from the same plat- form with Rev. Dr. George W. Mc- Daniel. President of the Southern Baptist Convention, (For which body he will talk in Memphis in May, and Governor Trinkle of Virginia. Dr. McDaniel referred to him as "A disti- nueished orater," while the Governor termed him "An eloquent and brili- tant son of the South." Morris gave his celebrated lecture on "The Hour Has Come," last Sun- day afternoon. Monday evening Morris spoke on the subject: "Hhe Measure of the Man." He urged upon his bearers the cultivation of the traits which make individuals in spite of race and regardless of circumstances. His masterly oratorical flights, his beautiful word pictures, coupled with his magnetic personality and his earnestness stirred his auditors to enthusiasm. He was given an ovation at the conclusion of his speech.

If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE---You May Never Know It Happened (Continued From Page 2) men to bow down to and pray. So we worship the fish and the monkey. And do you know the reason we worship monkeys and fish as our creators? We want to believe that we are better than our gods, that we are self made, and that we are getting better and better no matter how mean we are. And the superman, how proud he can be of his handiwork! How he can brag on it! You see there is no real God to give the credit, nor to fear therefore no future judgment and no responsibility. And he is still on the make, this super man. What a marvelous creature he will make at himself after awhile. For no one believes the theology of Jesus or Paul who believes in evolution. No one believes in the God of Moses nor the justice of his laws, if he believes in evolution, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Joseph Moses, David, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Malachi, John, the Baptist, Jesus, Peter; there were not evolutionists. They taught that God created man in His likeness and image and that man must give account of himself to God. And he must. The old Bible is true. No matter who denies it and men are going to be judged by the things written in the books. Dan. 12. Rev. 20. Man has gone downward not upward, and as Paul said, evil seducers are waxing worse and worse deceiving and being deceived. If Tim. 3. Be not among them. Serve the Lord with gladness. He is your maker and Redeemer, and in Him is your hope. The blood of Jesus takes the savage out of men and cleanses them from sin. Get under it. It will purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living and true God here and in heaven above. O with what bosh, with what bish erdash men do try to escape repentence and elude salvation. But the elect can not be deceived and the sheep of Jesus bear His voice. Do you hear it? Amen. SAN BERNARDINO DR. V. C. HAMILTON "San Bernardino must continue to go forward!" said Maor Holcomb of San Bernardino when interviewed by a representative of the California Eagle. "This is no time to let down in the continued development of our city. We need increased fire-fighting apparatus. We need more fire halls in the city. We need a sewer system properly developed to take care of the increased population. We need ad-ditional equipment and men to take care of the cleaning of the streets as a health measure. It is well known that a clean street free from dust is one of the best preventatives for the spread of disease. We have seventy miles of paved streets within the city and only five men directly employed in keeping them clean. The result is that while the work which these five men do is satisfactory as far as it goes, that they cannot properly and adequately take care of the entire city, and methods must be found to keep the streets in better condition. "From our short experience as Mayor, we know that by paper economics in the administration of the affairs of the city, that these pressing needs which we have must and can be taken care of without any increase in taxes. "We have proposed and are in the process of establishing a budget for the city finances. The savings thus effected, will give us money with which to take care of these things which we pointed out to be so vital and necessary for the well being of San Bernardino. "Upon all public works, we promise to employ home labor." The "Mayor is a candidate for reelection at the city primary to be held Monday, April 13, 1925. No primary will be held. Mrs. Cora Price and son, Mr. Der wood Price of Chicago are visitors in Calif., we wish them a pleasant stay. ST. PAUL A. M. E. CHURCH San Bernardino, Calif. Rev. James Washington, Pastor The pastor filled the pulpit at both the morning and evening services. We were happy to have one addition to our church. The stewardesses gave a surprise social Friday evening March 27th. An interesting program was rendered, consisting of a debate. The subject was 'Resolved: That education has done more to civilize the world than religion'". The speakers were Mr. Ben Ingraham, and Mrs. J. E. Muckleoy, who debated the affirmative. While Mr. George Johnson and Miss Dorothy ngraham defended the negative. The decision of the judges was 2 to 1 in favor of the negative. The debate was very interesting and instructive. Other numbers on the program were: vocal solo by Mrs. E. Johnson and a reading by Miss Shawne Brown. Saturday afternoon the girls met at the parsonage and were organized into the Allen's Stars by the pastor's wife. Mrs. A. L. Washington. Also a junior Christian endeavor was organized. The missionary ladies had a social tea Thursday at the residence of Mrs. B. W. ingraham. The monthly program was rendered. Subject of the lesson, "Service" which was interesting. The missionary ladies are very busy preparing to have a fair some time in May. The Woman's Culture Club met at the residence of Mrs. T. G. Hamilton. Friday afternoon, March 27. Mrs. T. W. Andrews, presiding. A paper was read by Miss Sadie Brown on the subject "Duty" after which it was discussed by the members. The paper was very interesting and instructive as well and, enjoyed by all present. A most delightful luncheon was served, the dining room was beautifully decorated with ferns and flowers. Those present were Mesdames W. S. Johnson, T. W. Andrews, B. W. Ingraham, W. Young, T. W. Johnson, H. Phillips, E. Harris, I. Mendenhall, Sadie Brown, Sallie Brown, F. Harrison and T. G. Hamilton. Mr. Wood Wilson and Editor J. B. Bass of the California Eaglewerevisitors in San Bernardino last Tuesday. This office apologizes for the misplacement of several news items intended for this issue. SAN BARDINO PRAISES JUDGE BLEDSOE (continued from page 1) boyhood, he has always been a friend to everybody. As a boy it was not uncommon for him to visit my father's house and likewise for us to visit his home. He is truly a real man who is, I am sure as good as they make them." Byron Rowan, government warehouse employee, a pioneer and most influential citizen of San Bernardino: "Sure I know Judge Bledsoe all of his career and he is indeed a mighty fine man." Jerry G. Smith, pioneer resident: Judge Bledsoe is a real man who stands for all the people. Mrs. E. Harris: Yes, I know and appreciate such high characters as Judge Bledsoe who has always proved his friendship and regard for all people. I. Mendenhall: Judge Bledsoe was indeed a man whom the colored citizens could stand by. San Bernardino colored citizens commend him to the colored cities of Los Angeles. W. J. Dent: Yes, Judge Bledsoe was always a fair and square citizen who stood for equal justice to all citizens. W. W. Muckelroy, prominent and well-known citizen testified to the worth of Judge Bledsoe. T. W. Andrews: Yes, I must say that Judge Bledsoe as one of the fairest men who ever resided in our midst. P. P. Hurd: You need have no fear of man of the calibre of Judge Bledsoe falling to give to our people a square deal. B. W. Ingraham, leading citizen of San Bernardino said: Yes, I must truthfully sai that Judge Bledsoe is a real man and worthy of the consideration of our people. Mrs. W. W. Muckelroy: Yes, say for me that Judge Bledsoe is a man truly of the people and I am indeed pleased to testify to his absolute fairness to our people daring all of his career in our city. This was the story without a dissenting voice of the testimony of leading citizens of the place where Judge Biedsoe was reared. Time and space would not permit the publishing of all interviews but surface it that the Judge stands out as a man who if elected mayor of Los Angeles will not only be the mayor, but will give to every man, woman and child a square deal and that is all that anybody could ask or expect. LIFE INS. CO. FOR CALIFORNIA (continued from page 1) All of the leading citizens of Houston, Texas, where he spent twenty years or more of his life, acclaim him a successful business man of unspotted integrity, an upright Christian gentleman, possessing a clean moral character and rugged honesty. During his stay in our city the past three years, he has proved himself more worthy of the many flattering recommendations' and unstinted praise of his former associates and fellow citizens. In view of the fact that California is in need of big business institutions operated by our own group, the acquisition of such a noble character as Mr. Wm. Nickerson, Jr., is an inestimable asset to the Golden State and is surely welcomed by all who are interested in our commercial progress and development. He is true as steel to his friends, loyal to duty; Truthful in his relation to his fellow man. Thoroughly reliable in business, exceedingly exacting in matters of business detail, and a close adherent to rules of economy. He is now State President and State General Manager of this same institution of the California Jurisdiction. He is thoroughly acquainted with the Insurance Law of both Texas and California. Has a thorough knowledge as to Insurance Office Management. A close student of insurance principles and his 20 years of practical experience in premium construction, apportionment of the various funds as to mortality, reserve in keeping with law, makes him eminently capable to protect both Company and the policy holder and manage its affairs in keeping with law in its relation with the State. It takes business aggressiveness, a knowledge of what to do, how to do and a determination to do, to put over a business proposition. That is what Mr. Nickerson has. The same business spirit acumen and aggressiveness that characterized his activity and indomitable determination in the organization' of the American Mutual Benefit Association in 1908 assisted by W. B. Cogle and others prompted him in 1924 to begin the organization' of the Golden State Guarantee Fund Insurance Co. and on February 24, 1925, this new company was duly incorporated and permit has been issued by the Corporation Commissioner to place necessary securities not exceeding $25,000.00 under California Law. This company will be prepared to serve you with whole life, 20 year pay, and 20 year endowment insurance in the maximum sum of $1,500.00 for the first year and $5,000.00 thereafter (on any one life). We owe it to ourselves to patronize this institution and thus secure the best protection for the smallest premium and at the same time build another big race enterprise that will put California on the insurance map, thus giving us financial strength, and employment to our young. IMPOSING CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE ANNOUNCED FOR JUDGE BLEDSOE Announcement of the general campaign committee of the supporters of former U. S. District Judge Benjamin F.

P. O. E., No. 99. In his six years as a member of the Los Angeles City Council he has been in close touch with the big problems that confront our rapidly growing city. His consideration of public questions has been sane and sound at all times. He has been instrumental in the passage of much sensible legislation bearin gon matters pertaining to traffic conditions in Los Angeles. He has given the question of viaducts in this city as a means of relief of the almost appalling traffic congestion which we are in the midst of, careful study and consideration, and due to his unceasing work along these lines, we now have six viaducts secured and more to come. He has secured for the District better police protection and equipment, has been instrumental in the opening, widening, paving and improving of streets and the installation of sanitary sewers. He has given much hard work and study toward the storm drain program and due to his co-operation storm drain No. 2 is just completed and No. 3 is underway. Power and light transmission facilities have been increased by more than a million dollars in this portion of the city during his incumbency, playgrounds have been secured and the territory properly zoned. Residents of the Ninth District need W. J. Sanborn to go on with the work he has done and is doing for them in their District. If you are loyal to the district in which you live, in its growth and rapid progress, re-elect Councilman W. J. Sanborn. FRIDAY, APRIL 3, 1928 Central Ave. 66-W LJ (S.B.W.) MAY candidate for the District No. 7 erty values within a minimum SOLON B. W. (S.B.W.) MAY Announces Hmself as Candidate for the City Council-From District No. 7 "I favor improvements to enhance property values within a minimum of taxation." Subject to the Prihmaries MAY 5TH, 1925 WHAT THE RE-ELECTION OF MAYOR CRYER MEANS TO OUR GROUP If there ever was a time in the history of Los Angeles when the colored man had an opportunity to cast a vote for himself and for a man who is broad-minded enough to be above the prejudices of the average person, the chance will be his Tuesday, May 5th. The Hon. George E. Cryer, the Republican nominee for re-election for Mayor, is that type of man who is intensely interested in the growth of Los Angeles, and whom we know has all the necessary qualifications to be Mayor of ALL the people. It is one thing to say you will serve all the people and it is another thing to live up to your promise. In fact, when the idea of service through practice has become a part of you, it becomes an easy matter to assume the virtue. Our colored citizens ask no special favors of anyone elected Mayor, but we would like to feel and know that the man elected would show a friendly interest in our affairs, particularly along industrial lines; for only such attention could lessen the present unemployment of our people and provide the competency for real home life among us; that he would have due regard for our rights and privileges, and that we be allowed the freedom for the constitutional exercise of those rights. We can only forecast the future and judge the acts of the candidate by their records in the past, and what they have been in the past will greatly determine what they will be in the future. An exhaustive inquiry has been made into the relationship of Hon. George E. Cryer and the colored man and we find nothing to indicate that he is in any way opposed to our full development, but on the other hand, we find many instances in which he has done or offered to do more than his share to help us. We note with a sense of appreciation and gratitude that whenever Mayor Cryer has been appealed to by our charitable organizations for funds he has always responded liberally; he has appeared on our programs and in our churches; he offered to advance money to one of our organizations to build a much-needed hall and community house. Our chef fruits from the last election of Mr. Cryer gave us sixteen additional firemen, with salaries crease of upwards of $300,000.00 annually. And those men are the proud possessors of a magnificent structure located at the corner of East Fourteenth St. and Central Avenue for their permanent activities and duties as firemen of Los Angeles. In the collection of waste and refuse materials for the city, our men have gained a monopoly; they are handling that department of public work with satisfaction in every detail. Public parks and playgrounds are thickly sparkled with our pigment and each man draws pay commensurate with his hours and labor. Prior to the election of Mayor Cryer our men were not identified with the traffic squads of the city, but now we find them directing our traffic some of the most prominent thoroughfares and residential districts of the city. The signal honor conferred upon a member of our group, Captain of the Colored Detectives, is attributable to the spirit of justice and fair play on the part of Mayor Cryer. In short, the increases of employment for our people net the race a sum amounting to over five thousand dollars each year. Contrast this attitude with that of former mayors and you will readily see that for us there is nothing at all complex about the coming election. Either we will ally ourselves with Mr. Cryer and his progressive principles and identify ourselves with the "forward" movement in Los Angeles or shift the responsibility of our city government onto those autocrats and aristocrats whose sinister and ulterior designs would thrust upon us a Southern Democratic Autocracy that seeks a fertile field for the insemination of its species. The issue is clear—a vote for George E. Cryer is a ballot for our progress in Los Angeles. Respectfully yours, CRYER CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE CLAUD McKINNEY, Chairman. MRS. ANNA E. WALKER FRED W.

CARD OF THANKS We wish to thank other friends for expressions of sympathy, floral of fernings and every little kindness extended during our period of sadness caused by the death of our husband Charley Anthony, March 29, 1925. A pageant is a great Folk Play including a series of scenes with processions of persons in costumes of various periods, representing historic events. There is little or no speaking, but the scenes and actions are accompanied by folk dancing, music, dramatic incidents, and the grouping and massing of color. The pageant has its origin in the religious festivals of ancient and mediaeval days and has recently been revived in England and America. Each pageant seeks to teach some great historic lesson, portraying the deeds and thoughts of bygone days and inspiring the young for unselfish work in the future. It is a great human festival and mode of singular beauty and lasting impression.

From the victory of:being. granted a new trial, in other words the reversal of his conviction, He faces the future confident of convincing the*court of his in- nocence. + = POLICE DISCRIMINATION ,._ A long time before this present election was at hand, \we cried aloud at the seeming discrimination practiced by the present police head. We cited the case of two young men who were denied service in a public place. These young men wanting to act as they had been taught (and that was to re- spect the law) sought the desk sergeant at the police station. This official told them lo go home that “Niggers” had no busi- ness going into drug stores up town to buy drinks. We called attention to this state of affairs ina big way on the front page of this paper. We did more than‘that, our Managing Editor sought time and again to take up and discuss the affair with Chief of Police Heath. He evaded and dodged and finally cornered, lett his offise, absolutely refusing to condescend to discuss with our editor a little hing like the constitutional rights of two little manly colored boys, and this is the situa- tion that hirelings will go about tying to line up colored votes to retain in power. For our part we stand for the people and if you insult, berate and maltreat even the humblest amongst them, you do the same unto us. The present mayor is responsi- ble for the police department and where our affable chief -got the idea that in his offitial capacity he could refuse audience with any reputable citizen who desires to take up such 4 vital matter as this one we cannot understand. . To support such conditions in our city government is but to put the stamp of approval upon such conduct. We want a head of our corporation who will frown upon such cheap prac- tees as this and who will give to even the most humble a hear- ing.

SPEAKING OF THE NIGHT SHIRT ORGANIZATION, “Bob” Shu ler says: “We have been trie to ev ery American ideai and Christian stantiard announced by that organiza: Uion as worthy of ihe support of reul and gennine Americans”, But in a re cent editorial by the “Los Angeles ‘Tmes” we encountered chis statement “if the tenets of the Klan are hot in conflict with the governmept and the morals ct the country, why are they kept secret? It Is never necessary to plot secretely to perform a public ser. vice. Those who viclate neither the writen fior the moral law of the land have no oceasion to wear a mask over the features created in the im- age of their Maker and ride about the country like witehes of the night”. We ask now: Does the KU, KLUX ‘KLAN expouse American ideals and Chrisian staniords? If the Klan is to be acceptel as an exponent of American ideals and Christian stand. ards then GOD HELP US! WE NOTICED THAT MILES. S. GREGORY. who styles himself “the Friend of ‘the Negro” published an aMdavit to the effect that he- “is not a Kluxer". The Klan is a White man’s organization and. we are endeavoring to shew how, with all.of the latter's self-proclaimed superiority, his very EOAST OF SUPERIORTY, because based upon a logic so laughable as that of the SKIN, makes him a ridicu- lows and. therefore, humorgus. specta- cle in the eyes of his sapposed IN- FERIORS. This is what the “TIMES, has further to say in the editorial above referred to: “It is a matter of cemmon report that any member of the Klan is authorized to deny mem: bership or affiliation whenever doing so shall serve bis individual purpose or ambition. An crganization that condones perjury is not likely to be much of an influence in the cause of truth.” ‘The question ¢f a sworn de- nial of membership in the klan by any political aspirant, then. must, by the words of White men themselves, be of little importance! Mr. Negro, eon- gratulate yourself that you are not 1 WHITE MAN! For heaven knows that to be WHITE is a problem of paradcxes! WE ARE FOR BLEDSOE! We must lo away with “CRY-CRIES".

Age about 76 years Having been a slave for the first sixteen years of his life, he had no oprortunity to obtain a good educa Uion. He attended school only three weeks, but being ambitious he suc: ceeded in learning to read and write In 1871 he was married to Mrs. Maria Mocre, a widow. to which union seven children were horn five of whom survive him. While a comparatively young man he was converted and felt the call to preach. He began his ministry in the Cclored Methodist. Episcopal Church and served'in that connection about five years as Local Preacher and five years in the itinerant ministry. In Janvary 1886, he united with the Methodist Eniscopal Church, was re- ceived on trial in what was then the Mississippi Conference and assigned to Lexington Circuit. He served very efficiently the follownig charges in the Upper” Mississippi Conference: Abbeville, Vaiden: Circuit. Pickens Shellmound, Okolona, Corinth, Duck. Hill, Alesville. Abbeville the second (ime, Srdis, Webb, Coahoma, North Carroliten, and West Point, a period of 32 years. He took the retired rela- ion in 1918 and canie’ to California and was appointed to supply Fowler at that time without a pastor. He served here five years. He lived one year in Los Angeles with bis son without @ pstoral charge. His health incapacitated him for| work the first of January, 1924, Dur- ng November of last year he moved izain to this city and resided at 3508 cKinley Street, where he died last Sunday morning after a lingering ill- jess of nine weeks, He was a great believer in educa- ion. Although deprived of a college ducation himeelf, he was anxious hat all of his children shouid be well \ducated. In 1883 he moved to Holly Spring, Mississippi, the site of Rust Sollege and practically without mon- y but with mnlimited faith in God nd in bimagif he placed his children nm school. For fourteen years he gave p bis home, his own comforts and yerhaps shortened bis own life by his ingeifish devotion to the education of: bis children. He was fortunate in having a8 a wife and mother of his children a woman of — extraordinary common nense and executive ability. Otherwing hia sacrifices would have been for naught.

Boby Pierce And Joe Garcia In Great Punching Bee Sam Baker made short work of Battling Dungey the sailor heavyweight at the Assembly Athletic Club last Monday night. Dungey was one of the easiest marks that Sam has been called upon to level his right on. Sam put Dungey down for the count in the first round and completed the job in the second. Dungey hit Sam twice in the two rounds. Sam used a left hook to the midrift with good effect and was just as fast on his feet as ever. Sam scored his knockdown in the first round with a right and knocked Dungey out with a left. Looks like the "midget" is a two handed battler. Dungey was ripe for the K. O. in the first but Sam.tarried. Pierce Loses Tough Decision Bobby Pierce dropped the decision in the sixth round semi-windup to Jose Garcia according to referee Bruce. Had the writer been in the ring the hand of Bobby Pierce would have been raised. Pierce fought Garcia just right. He socked his right into Garcia every time the rushing Garcia closed in Garcia was rushing all the evening but he wasn't rushing anywhere. His arms waved like windmills and he landed on one blow out of every twenty started. Garcia is rugged and thrives on taking punches but if Bobby had possessed a heavy punch he would have had Garcia on the floor. He did send Garcia back on his heels with a right to the jaw in the fifth. Garcia was tired in the sixth and so was Boby. In our tabulation by rounds we gave Bobby the first two rounds the third was even. Pierce took the fourth, the fifth found Garcia having a shade and the last round was anybody's not a blow being landed. Another Washed Away By Hubic Eddie Hubic the tall pal ewhite lad knocked out another ambitious performer, George Novel. Hubic lost the first round as usual, but his opponent as usual wore himself out punching Eddie's cast iron jaw. Hubic got his second wind in the second round and knocked out Novel in the third with a right to the body. Joe Burch Beats Garber Again There was no doubt about game little Joe Burch's win over Bud Garber in the second event. Joe set Garber three times in quick succession in the second round. Joe set Garber in the second round. Garber didn't take a count but always boanced right up into a straight right. Joe Burch locks like a coming champion. In the curtain raiser Pedro Pabre won the decision over Kid Roy. George Godrey was an interested septator and was introduced from the ring and also met Sam Baker his next opponent. STUDIO STAGE STROLL Just finished at Warner's Ada Penn, Rose Penn, Edward Bellamy, George West, John Curry, Lucy Davis, Sarah Lewis, Dana Sneed and Edwin Sneed. Last year was the biggest yet in pictures but members of the Dramatic League and Cinema Auxiliary are anticipating an even greater year for 1915. Hayes Robinson worked the most days of any actor in 1924. Floyd Shackelford seems to have the best start this year. George Reed is working again, this time at Fox. Mattie Peters is on the Universal lot. SHINE SCOTT, the Christian Science-trainer starts his sixteenth season with the Vernon Tigers. HUNG OUT BY JIMMIE SMITH The Assembly Athletic Club is not receiving the patronage it is due, considering the class of cards that are being put on. There is not a club in the neighborhood of Los Angeles that gles as much for the price of admission as the Assembly Club. At least ninety per cent of the patronage is of the Race which speaks well for the boxing fans of this vicinity but those who are regulars at every show should make an effort to induce others to come. If the regulars don't do this the Clubmaypass out as a financial failure, then the pleasure of enjoying our weekly boxing at a minimum price at a place where your patronage is solicited, will be dened you. My message to you, dear reader, is this: If you have been postponing your visit to the Assembly Athletic show, make it a point to attend next Monday night. If you are a regular bring one or more friends with you next Monday night. The card looks like the best one to be put on since the opening. JAMES LOWE is a full fledged "Pot Boiler" and is signed for a very prominent part in their next production. "The Life of a Man."

PHONE: HUmbolt 7175 SERVICE OUR GREATEST ASSET FASHION PAGEANT NOW HISTORY (continued from page 1) Somehow the show didn't come up to the standard set by previous presentations of the same organization. The enthusiasm of the audience was not brought out to a degree that would cause one to write that the creations startled, dazzled and aweed. The late start probably had some thing to do with this. Advertised to begin at eight, the first number was not presented until nine. The main bulk of the crowd did not arrive until nine so those who wited the hour uncomplainingly did their late arrival brethren a favor. Spring's Awakening seemed to be th etheme of opening as conceived by Ralphe Porter the director and children were the first to appear on the scene which consisted of a Chinese or Japanese "back drop" flanked on either side with potted palms and electrical standards. Because of faulty lighting backstage the back curtain did not serve as a good background to display the sport and summer clothes that were paraded before the audience by the many mankins. Little Juanita Parker was the first to grace the stage and she in turn was followed by other tots who disported themselves until the grown ups arrived. Herbert Jones sang, Horace Clark strutted to receive applause. Mrs. Clark allowed her son to stay on the stage a little overtime and some of the effect of his dancing was lost from repetition of steps. The Lakeside Week-End Sequence brought forth the youths and grown ups in sport atire, that included tennis, bathing, golfing and creations for summer wear. "Bush My Tailor", Eugene Walker, "Budgie" Bullocks, Eva Houston, Bertha Smith and Gertrude Herbert were represented by models. In the Garden Party afternoon frocks predominated and the creations were well received. Hazel Davis, Mary Hawkins, Corinne Gamble, Horace Wagner, King Clothing Co. Mabel Barnes, and Nina S. Mallory were the designers represented. While the Billbrew Ladies Quartet rendered two numbers that enlivened the evening, the scene was changed and a purple drop was set for the background of the posing models. Formal and evening attire was the motif of this section of the program with the models wearing creations from Maude Sutherland, Milliner, Hazel Davis, Antoinette Gamble, Alberta Hunter Nailey, Nina S. Mallory, Birdie Parker, Modistes and Bush My Tailor. Black face Bernice Patton in a creation of her own received the most favorable comment of all, altho Raulphe Porter's "Here Comes The Bride" was ver impressive. During intervals in the parade, solos were rendered by Mrs. Alice Harve and William Farlica. Seeral dance numbers directed by Lotte Bolds Anderson also served to vary the program from the fashion display routine. Members o f the Utopians and Orders of Silver Fox represented "mere" man in the pgeant of style. The symplicity of design and the usefulness of the grments and headwear for practical use impressed the writer. The lavishness of the staging and the extreme styles of former shows was missing, but this show did demonstrate that artisans of the Race can design and construct wearing appearel. Billy Maxie the working at Solomons, giving private dancing and directing the Ladies Minstrel has time to pose on the Avenue. Parade On Sunday And Band Concert Part Of Ceremonies In Connection With Re-Opening Of 38th and Ascot Park With a big double header involving four teams as the attraction, the Los Angeles White Sox Baseball Park at 38th and Ascot streets will be thrown open Sunday at 12:30 P.

Papke is known as a rough house slugger who throws gloves from the first round until the last. To whip Papke you must punch hard and fast and all so be able to take a punch. Gans is so clever that he seldom takes a stiff punch but it is believed he can and Papke will give him the acid test.

A band will lead the procession and it is expected to have many machines in line. The band will play between innings t the park. WHITE SOX STRONG Lonnie Goodwin will put a strong lineup on the Sox field as he expects to win the championship of the Greater Southern California Baseball Association.

They are Green in centerfield and Williams in right. Paul Wilson will chase flies in left. All the infielders are well known. Adams at first, Bob Fagen on second. Riddle playing short and Pinky Ward at the hot corner. Butcher will do the receiving and Jay Johnson. Foote and Campbell are ready for mound Autu.

Don't let the opportunity slip to come in on the opening price, make your application now before the advance. We want you to clearly get this fact. Pacific Beach Club is a reality; building is progressing as fast as it is humanly possible for it to do so. If you are one of thoe who insist upon seeing everything completely built and finished before you will give your support you must expect to have to pay for that privilege. As the building progresses and your resort takes form so will the memberships advance in price. By coming in now you will make a very wise move. Therefore, our candid advice is DO IT NOW. Remember only a limited number of Membership Certificates will be offerd for Sale and that the--- A non-profit organization for the enjoyment and recreation of members and their families only. Don't allow yourself to get a misconception of this club. Its gates will never be thrown open to the public, not now nor at any other time. IF YOU want to enjoy the many privileges the club will offer it will be necessary that you hold a membership. This membership, however, will provide for yourself and your family these privileges without cost to you. Have you ever taken yourself to one side and seriously considered the fact that you haven't a place on the Pacific that you can call your own? That whenever you desire to take your family for a Sunday's outing on the Pacific you must seek a place where you feel that yourself and family will not be subject to the unwelcome looks of other countrymen? YOU, AS AN AMERICAN, are entitled to the enjoyment of the ocean as well as any other person. Consider for a moment what it will cost you for a BATHING PRIVILEGE alone at any of the present beaches for one year. Now figure that for ten years with many tens on top of it. Do you think that you would be able to furnish yourself and family these privileges for any amount of money, let alone $75.00? Ask yourself this question. "If I let this opportunity slip will there ever be a chance for me to have a little piece of the Pacific that I may feel is my own? Tent City, Bath House, Recreational Hall, Club House, Amusement Zone, Parking Space. ---A small down payment and the balance in small monthly installments, insures yourself and family these privileges forever for no more than the cost of one single summer's bathing, to say nothing about the many other free advantages.

Arnold "The Man who Never Sleeps" J. R. Arnold, the far famed Cafe man who has been designated through various articles in these columns and on the unique advertisements sent out by Mr. Arnold as the "Man Who Never Sleeps" states that in his opinion on the status of the Colored people of Los Angeles and says that, it is not what it should be owing to the lack of organization. Arnold says that the race has woefully failed to assert itself in all the various lines of effort and that its failure has been the lost art of all forces getting together on a real program for progress. We depend too much upon the charity of other racial groups. Both in church and in state we lack in leadership. In church we need men whose spiritual vision will lead to the real heights of spiritual revelation. In our political life we need leaders who would mould public sentiment and lead great advances toward the equitable distribution of public funds and positions which will insure to those who are a part and parcel of the affairs of the State and nation. Our social leaders should bring about conditions which are destined to place our people to the forefront in organizations and institutions, which have for their object the betterment of human association, which reward meritorious service to the individual in consequence of the group he seeks to represent. The reward in each instance should be in keeping with the time and labor expended in the pursuit of public confidence and favor. For he it known hat our condition politically is deplorable and is due absolutely to lack of leadership. We must have political leadere with a vision and passion for the ood of the community; men who study the problems worth white to the race and in consequence of the existing problems of the race.

P table quarters close to scho FORECAST OF 1,500,000 CARS THIS YEAR MADE ghee tnformal Motor vehicle registration will amount to almost 1,500,000 this year according to a statement received by the National Automobile Club from the Dopartment of Motor Vehicles. This registration shows the remark- able growth in the motor care indus. try since 1905 when the first car was registered in Califcrnia. At that time the registrations were handled by the Secretary of State amd the first regis- tered motor car owned in California was John D. Spreckle’s. The motor care was a “White steamer.” In two years, the registration in- cTeased to more than 10,000 but until 1913, all registrations were handled by the Secretary of State. The Motor Vehicle Department was organized un- der an act of 1915 and since that time the work of the department has grown by leaps and bounds.

Spring fever is raging among Southern California motorists accord ing to a canvass made yesterday of leading automobile salons. Contrary to the common interpreta. tio nhowever, instead of a slowing down there is a brisk pickup in de- mand for cars. Increasing interest in condition of roads and summer camps. is reported by automobile clubs and touring bu- reaus. 5 “There could be no surer indica- tion tha tspring is at-hand and sum- mer approaching,” said Hrry Lord, head of the Southern California dis- ‘tribuging organization for the new ‘Velie “Airplane” six Iine. “Requests. for early deliveries are mounting, and closed care are the favorites by a wide margin, although touring care and roadsters are com- ing in for a fair stiare of interest. Our biggest demand’ is fo the four-door ccach, a model exclusive to Velie. “Reports from the Velie factory an- nounce more than forty new disiribu- tor and dealer: contracts added during the last thirty daye. “Velie officials say the first quarter's sales will show a 10 per cent increase over the same period last year. “A few more of these ideal So.th- land days and our sales and service forces will be turning out newly-pur- chased Velies-at their capacity lim- int t PROBE SHOWS DANGER POINT Washington (D. C.) March 28.—A series of studies conducted by — the American Automobile Association as a part of its national safety program shows that the average pedestrian too often follows the dangerous line of least resigtance, whether he is -walk. ing on crowded city streets or on the rural highway. : The .pedestrian seldom takes time to void the “dnger point” or to con- sider which is the safer: side of the street to walk on. There is a safer side, and one way to minimize the personal atcident hazard is to keep this in mind. The majority of street accidents oc- cur at the danger point where mdtor vehicles migke the right hand turn and comé from behind the pedestrians To aoid this point it is safer to walk on the side of the street_where one faces the approaching traffic and has a clear view of vehicles, partieu- larly those negotiating the right-hand turn, There is also a safer ‘way of cross- ing to the diagonal corner and a number of ways that are not so safe. Here again the impartant question fs to follow the line that will give the bigrest range of vision in regard to traffic, Ci ee siet Wes CHOICE REAL ESTATE BARGAINS Carefully selected as tp price and location from a very| large listing of the best sections of the city. 6-room House, West of Central Ave., large lot, $6,-' 300.00; $1000.00 cash. | __5-rooin bungalow, built in features, East of 52nd St. j $4500.00; $500.00 cash. | _+ Two houses on one lot, 5 and 4 rooms, a very good | income, $7500.00; $2000.00 cash. : 5-room bungalow, Westside, hardwood floors, $5,- 000.00; $700.06 cash. , : . a | WILLIAM H.
