Judge Benjamin F. Bledsoe In His Manly Stand for Law and Order, Banishment of Boss Rule In Los Angeles Is Making a Winning Fight. His Stand for Absolute Equality of All People In Affairs of City Government Has Gained the Support of All Who Stand for a Square Deal. HELLO BILL THEY ARE OFF AGAIN, THAT CLASSIEST COSTUMED DRILL TEAM WANTS YOU TO JOIN IT AT ITS SECOND ANNUAL MAY DANCE AT 15th and MAIN DANCING ACADEMY, THURSDAY EVENING, MAY 14th-SUNNYLAND JAZZ ORCHESTRA PLAYING. TELEPHONE: VAndike 9244 Phone: VANDIKE 9244 VOLUME 38 Judge Ben Banishmen Stand for A Has JUDGE BLEDSOE TERROR TO CROOKS AND EVIL DOERS BUT JUSTICE WITH MERCY RULING SPIRIT JUDGE BENJAMIN F. BLEDSOE Preservation of sanctity of the court and a service to justice embodying not alone a rigid upholding of the law but a disposition to show leniency on appropriate occasion, are two of the most jealously guarded prerogatives of the judiciary of this country. Court sanctity is traditional and its maintenance is supported by the bar and court attaches as well as by the bench; but leniency is the sole right of the learned judge. To the careless thinker, or the bitter opponent, former U. S. District Judge Benjamin F. Bledsoe, who is now a candidate for the mayoralty of Los Angeles, is painted as a martinet, as an over-bearing, unbending jurist. So opposite is the truth and so little has any attempt been made to correct this wholly erroneous notion entertained by the few and sedulously broadcasted by political enemies, that brief recital of displays of heart will prove interesting to friends and provide food for thought for the unacquainted and the enemy. Innumerable instances, spread over a judicial career of twenty-five years duration, of justice extending a helping hand to the down-fallen, of an upraising of the downtrodden, even of monetary assistance to the confessed law breacher may be found in the files of the San Bernardino County Superior Court and the United States District Court. Even though defending the self-confessed law breaker, attorneys of Southern California knew that an exposition of mitigating circumstance, not of the commission of the crime charged, but of committal of evil doing through financial necessity, commission of a crime that child or children might have sustenance, was a certain means for drastic remittal of sentence if the case were heard in the court, presided over by Judge Benjamin F. Bledsoe. As one instance, consider the case of a man who pled guilty to sending scurrilous matter through the mails. Due representation by his attorney (and though no names are used these cases are all matters of court record while in the court and of written record when the case has passed from court (jurisdiction) brought to the attention of Judge Bledsoe the fact that this man was the father of four children. Sentence was not passed, and on file is a copy of a letter from the happy wife thanking the Judge for his great goodness in extending financial aid to this stricken family. HELLO BILL MATINEE DANCE, MAY 30—15th and Main—SUNNYLAND JAZZ ORCHESTRA—2 to 6 p.m. Or turn if you will to criminal records of the district court and find Case No. 6539, theft of post office property, for which a sentence of one day in jail was passed by Judge Bledsoe. The convicted man was proven misled. Search case No. 3278, a mother, charged and pleading guilty to possession of liquor. Sentence $1.00 about to become a mother in Case No. 2231, charged with violation of the fine. Or that unfortunate woman narcotic act. A guilty plea brought only a sentence of $1.00 fine on each count of the indictment. To cite at random, look at case No. 4140, violation of the Volstead act, a plea of guilty by the attorney together with explanation of family difficulties bring a fine of $1.00 to the hard-pressed male prisoner. In case No. 3463, again violation of the Volstead act, a $2.00 fine was assessed against the man who sought money by illegal means that his dear ones might live. Citation of cases of this sort might run to endless columns, for they are of record in the district court, but to what end? The crux of the matter is that as a judge Benjamin F. Bledsoe was human; how much more humanly he can display as chief executive of the city where his hands are not fled by precedent!

Daily Record Back Scuttles-Present Stand On Mayor Looks Insipid Truth will not down and those who turn from truth to a garbling of fact to best serve their own selfish ends must miserably fail. That this rule knows no exception can perhaps best be demonstrated by the political about face of a Los Angeles afternoon daily which, turning from a campaign of truth telling, is now enthusiastically supporting the candidacy of Mayor George E. Cryer. There need be no inquiry as to the reason for the changed attitude of this paper. TRUTH remains as part of the record of the printed page. Only one short year ago this present stalwart champion of Mayor Cryer said: "As for Cryer, he is one of the most disappointing men in political life in Los Angeles in recent years. Once again he has failed as he USUALLY fails when an emergency arises". Reference being made to the time of the first candidacy of George E. Cryer for the mayorality of Los Angeles, one find his ability coupled with others in that race in the scorching exorcitation: "It is a mere choice of politicians. This paper cannot advise its readers to do without a Mayor. It does advise them to follow their own judgment because they know as much about the three leading candidates as need be known, and that is this: They are all simply political office seekers, wax figures in a political Punch and Judy show". This then is the unpublished exorcism. This, then, is the unbiased opinion of that distinguished daily journal in 1921. Does one find that the wax figure becomes of iron with the passing of years? Once again reference is made to the columns of the truth purveyor, this expression or the ability of Mayor Cryer being made three years after he first takes office: "Almost every political observer knows that Kent K. Parrot is the de facto mayor of Los Angeles." Later in this same article one finds "Porrat became major factor in municipal politics when he elected George Cryer Mayor three years ago." Not satisfied with this three year interval characterization of Mayor Cryer as a wax figure, the same article goes on to say "Charlie Jones was appointed Chief of Police. It was the first appointment to those who had felt and hoped that George Cryer was mayor in fact as well as title." And further, "The hand of Kent Parrot has been seen in practically every important move made by Mayor Cryer since his first election." Then the deming expose "But around election time the gamblers and bootleggers and women of the streets are in a mood to plank down cash, in the theory that they will be permitted to escape the hounding of police regimes to come." Has there been any change in one short year? Does not this condition exist today as this, at the present time stauunch upholder of Los Angeles as a clean city, said it existed twelve months past? Did this paper tell the truth one year ago? You reader, know that even this startling expose was not the WHOLE truth one year ago and it is far from the whole truth today. "Just as a matter of interesting information", says the TRUTH article, "Parrot has one of his office associates on the civil service board". And just as a matter of further information it can truthfully here be added that same office associates is STILL a member of the civil service board! What, then, does the civil service board mean? No denial can be made that a strong political machine has been built up and is being used in this campaign. Will YOU, citizens of Los Angeles, fall for the blandishments or threats of this machine? gue Bell Harrison; Address, Bro. Willis O. Tyler; Vocal Solo, Bro. Leon Clark; Benediction, Bro. Miller. Ku Klux Head Supporter of Mayor Cryer Ku Klux Head Supporter of Mayor Cryer It has been asked of us, the low down, on who the Ku Klux Klan is supporting in the Mayoralty race. In answer to the same we will state that hardly any better authority could be quoted as to who the Klux are supporting than the Imperial Head for this section. That worthy gentleman, G. W. Price, Imperial representative for the state of California told the representative of this paper that he was giving all his support to the candidacy of Mayor Cryer, the inference gained was that the Klan was for the Mayor. Speaking further the Ku Klux Klan chieftain said that there were other high officials in the county who owe their election to the support of the Klan and the election of Mayor Cryer would be brought about if the same maner so that the organization would always have a friend at court in this great growing and powerful city. West. Virginia Supreme Court Bars "Birth Of A Nation" Film T. G. NUTTER OF LOCAL N.A.A.C. P. TELLS HOW VICTORY WAS WON *Colored citizens of Charleston and of the State of West Virginia have won a great victory before the State Supreme Court which has decided that "The Birth of a Nation" shall not be exhibited in the Rialto Theatre in Charleston. "The Birth of a Nation" was to be shown April 1 to 4, and the city had been flooded with advertisements Thursday afternoon, March 26, T. G. Nutter, President of the Charleston Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, together with W. W. Sanders, Vice President of the N.A.A.C.P. Branch and State Supervisor of Negro schools: Capt. G. E. Ferguson, hotel prepistool and former member of the N.A.A.C.P. branch executive committee, called on Mayor W. W. Wertz. The delegation protested against the film being shown in violation of a special law which colored leaders put through the legislature in 1919, expressly to prohibit this film. Mr. Nutter informed Mayor Wertz he had power to prevent the showing under that statute as well as by exercise of the police power of the city. The Mayor, after consultation with the City Solicitor not the theatre management that "The Birth of a Nation" should not be shown and that if attempt were made to show it, he would conscribe the film and arrest the manager and all the employees of the theatre, also any owner of the film who might be in Charleston. The Mayor asked Attorney T. G. Nutter to prepare the necessary affidavit. WHITE MOB ATTACKS BLACK MAN Monday morning, April 20th, at 6 A.M., as had been his custom for the past nine months, James Kelly Miller boarded the Waits car at 14th and Long Beach Avenue enroute to Whiting & Mead, his place of employment. The car was comparatively crowded, and it was necessary for Mr. Miller to edge his way into it, and in so doing he unknowingly rubbed against a white Negro-hater by the name of Oscar Engerbretsen, who spoke up:— "Get out of this car, 'Niggar' " But to this Mr. Miller, at first paid no attention and this seeming inattentiveness irritated the white man, who it is said was intoxicated to the extent that he reiterated his statement with a blow to which the colored man responded with his trusty left. In an interview at the city jail Tuesday morning, Mr. Miller gave an Eagle reporter a very clear statement concerning his activities before, and coming to Los Angeles— "I was born in the State of Kentucky in the year 1886, but have lived in Pittsburgh, Kansas, shortly all of my active life. Am a member, since coming to Los Angeles, two years ago of the New Hope Baptist Church. I have a wife and three other relatives living in Los Angeles, I am a member of Silver Moon Lodge No. 25 (Elks) of Parsons, Kansas. Have worked for the Whiting & Mead Company for the past sixteen months as porter." Have you ever been in jail for fighting? inquired the reporter? "No", said Mr. Miller. I have never before had any trouble with anyone, and I did my utmost Monday to avoid the episode that landed me here, but it was the inevitable." "Why", again inquired the reporter, "Did not the row stop when you left the car?" "Well, when I got out at Ninth and Maple to go on duty, I heard a voice behind me saying, 'I am going to whip you. Niggar' I turned and this same white man was upon me with an open knife. He had the best of me in height and weight and would have made quick work of me had I not used my knife. A mob of whites quickly gathered. There were colored people on the car but none of them came to my rescue. "I am sorry it had to happen, but I had to defend my life and I did. I be lieve, what any other man would have done in the premises." The daily papers on Monday morning flooded the city with sensational news concerning a near riot, when as a matter of fact, one innocent, well behaved, hard-working black man was attacked by a small white mob. The daily newspapers of Los Angeles should be persuaded to ease up on the spread of this sort of propaganda for it is this sort of thing that stimulates race hatred and promotes race riots. James Kelly Miller, with his wife, mother-in-law and father-in-law live at 1528 E. 14th St. They are peace loving, progressive and law abiding citizens. On Monday morning, Mr. Miller was the victim of the outrages or a half mad drunken brute beneath a white skin. Had the Negroes on the car, as was their right, joined in the fracus, there would have been a sure enough race riot. Every individual and every organization standing for justice and fair play in the eyes of the law should see to it that James Kelly Miller is vindicated of any wrong doing. Lieutenants of Detectives, W. L. Stevens, F. G. White and Homer-Gar- davits describing the film and showing violation of the law. Thereupon the management asked for a Committee of colored citizens to view the picture to see of objectionable prints could be cut out. Through Mr. Nutter 30 colored people appeared but declined to reach any agreement other than withdrawal of the film. (Continued on page 6) 1879-1925 $2.00 THE YEAR No. 47 and Order, by Fight.

TACKS BLACK MAN rot, who are handling the case, are desirous that any persons who were on the Watts car the morning of the cutting and have first hand information will confer with them, that the ends of justice might be served. Side Lights On Miller's Case Mr. Miller tells Eagle reporter that he was in jail 24 hours before his hand, cut by white assailant, was dressed. Pasadena, Calif., Apr. 20, 1925. City Jail, Los Angeles, Calif. You can tell the jury that with drops of blood the history of the American Negro has been written. Believe you will come thru fine. Best of luck. G. O. Wolf, white, of 233 E. 43rd Street, called upon Mrs. Miller Tuesday, and offered his services and stated that Mr. Miller was an innocent victim of a prejudiced, intoxicated white man. Simeon Maddox of 1729 East 52nd Street, who was on the car when Oscar Engerbretsen got on, says that Engerbretsen stood in the door way and when the conductor ordered him to some in with an oath Engerbretsen said "Don't order me around, because I am not a 'Mexican'," and when later on Miller entered the car and gave vent to his already wrought up wrath by attacking the Colored man. Ill Health Responsible Twenty-Seven Years Resident Of Pasadena Ends Life During Night Unable to resist the lure of a leap from the heights of the Colorado street bridge, Mrs. Ida H. Ford, who has acted as assistant pastor of the Friendship Baptist Church, filling the pulpit on special occasions, is dead today and her body lies in the morgue of Reynolds and Elerbe, the 14th suicide victim of the towering concrete structure. The body was found late yesterday in a crumpled heap on the rocks of the Arroyo Seco by Clinton F. Crese, after police had been urged by her husband to search for the woman. III Health Blamed Mrs. Ford, who was 50 years of age, is believed to have made her death plunge Monday night, as she was reported to have left her home at 412 South Pasadena avenue then. In ill health for some time, she is said to have asked friends what they would think should her body be found under the bridge. No other reason than ill health has been advanced for her act by Detectives O'Rourke and Burlingame who investigated the suicide. Mrs. Ford had lived in Pasadena for 22 years and had been prominently identified with church and welfare work among the colored people. Planning Funeral She is survived by her husband, W. E. Ford; one daughter, Marie Ford; one son, Paul Ford; two sisters, Mrs. M. E. Scott and Mrs. M. L. Barber; two brothers, James Griffin and William Griffin, all of Pasadena. Funeral arrangements have not been made. From The Pasadena Evening Post. Mrs. Ford is a member of one of Pasadena's oldest and best families, and during her entire life has been a member of the Baptist Church and active during her entire life. She has many friends in and out of the church who will mourn her loss. UAL MAY DANCE AT G. NAACP.

The report pays the followng tri- bute to colored editors of the United States: “The attitude of the colored press, with a few indivilual exceptions, merits the warmest praise and ack: nowledgement from the N. A. A. C. P. The colored press throughont the country has become an effective and a powerful force reaching millions ot coloted people and whit> peopl> everk week. This force colored edi- tors have effectively used, in co-op- eration with the N. A. ALC. P. in fightnig the battles of the ace: one of the conspicuous —vietpries_—_accom- plished by this joint effort being the parole of 20 Honston Martyrs during the year 1924, and the assurance that ieee all of the men will have been released.

WHERE TO ATTEND CHURCH AGE--TWO BETHEL BAPTIST CHURCH Holding Its Services in the Y. M. C. A. 9th and Hemlock Sts. H. D. Prowd, Pastor Our Sunday School was largely attended, and the lesson was helpfully discussed. The many visitors were given the usual glad hand of welcome by Superintendent Dr. Evans. At the close, Vice-President, Mrs. Pearl Gailerson drove home the various points — "Keeping back part of the price" is fatal to real Christianity. At the 11 o'clock service Dr. Prowald preached from John 21:22—"Follow Thou Me." The main points set forth were: (1) Going back to old habits; (2) Furnitibing bed example to others; (3) Failure without the approval and presence of our Lord; (4) Working on the right side under command of Jesus; (5) The recommissioned, repentant servant; (6) Peter's future foretold; (9) The Essentials of Christianity—Love, Sacrifice, Obedience and Service. Truly the Master was in the message and much good was done. Our work grows. The B, Y, P, U mission was most inspiring. The Subject was: "Worship—the Life of my Church." All took part in the discussion, and we had the presence of the Master. A. S. p.m. our brother Mr. E. D. Hayn's preached for us and gave us a very helpful discourse. Bro. Hayn is a very earnest and methodical young preacher, and shows a promising future life of usefulness. Mrs. Geneva Jones brought forward Master William Jones Roberts, a pupil of our Sunday School, for the blessing of the Church, and all enlightened the beautiful service. Come and work with us this coming Sunday. We have special services. CORNER STONE MISSIONARY BAPTIT CHURCH Him wooch service was conducted by the pastor.

We have just completed a painting which in the exact reproduction of the river of Jordan which forms the background of the baptisty which made him appear in our mind's eye to be standing on the banks. Therefore this too, played its part in the spiritual overflow that filled the auditorium. The Lord is still adding soldiers to this part of the vineyard. Let First Baptist be a part of your next week's program. If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened PLEASANT HILL BAPTIST CHURCH Last Sunday marked another great victory for Jesus. The truth was made plain in the Sunday School, and its blessings will be felt in the lives of these children, years to come. A.M. services Rev. Rozier used as his subject: "The Home, the source of the World's Life," stating that the world has reached its climax in un-Godliness, and apparently in the same state as was the world before the flood. The very source, the heart of man has become corrupt. Home life is no longer reverenced. The home must be changed; the woman, before she does, motherhood must meet the condition, present her body a living sacrifice to God, then as Sarah, let God bless the world through her. There are times when human can define or explain the wonderful manifestations of God. Sunday afternoon was one of those occasions. Truly God opened wide the windows of his mercy, poured out his power into our hearts. "Bless his dear name," freedom really came to his church. Some were healed, some saved, everybody was filled from his presence. Of a truth God is real. God is really working among men today. Oh sinner! Oh wonderer! Oh you that are in trouble, you that are tired of sin, that hunger and thirst after righteousness COME! and be filled. God has stationed his servant Rocier at Pleasant Hill and is giving him all you need. Monday be talked from Rom. 8:5-7 teaching us to live in the spirit. The only way to stay strong is to live in the spirit each night, as the spirit holds the truth will be given to us. Mrs. Whitfield, representative of the National Baptist Training School for Girls, worshiped with us, and fifty some dollars was given her for the out of the act of the school. TRINITY MISSIONARY BAPTIST CHURCH Cor. 36th and Normandie Cornbelt and Normandie Rev. J. A. H. Eldridge. Pastor The Sunday school is still gaining in interest, and it is the intention of the leaders to make this a banned year. The pastor spoke from St. Paul 23:23. His discourse being "The Weightmaster of Christian Lif" a sermon that should have been pasted over the modesta rabba. To so the stay at home on Sunday could have been something that would have been of interest at benefit to them as a were to those who sat and board at delivered by one of God's ministries. The it Y P L. is again taking on new life with george pape and orations by the young pope. The discourse of the pastor at the opening service was "If it were no so, I would have told you".

TOURIST'S MISSION 2609 Central Avenue (Christian Welfare Service to Strang- res) Matt. 25:35 Through an error, a statement in our last notes was published to read, "Our Club is proud of itself as an organization." It should have read, "Our Board Member, Dr. Eldridge has expressed himself proud of the ac- count, our Club has given of itself as a new organization." We correct it here because it is so entirely against the training of our leader that we in- dulce in any tendency toward self- praise, that we feel the necessity of clearing ourselves with her. Our Open Air Services will continue as soon as we receive our permit of transfer to our new locality. However, our musician, Miss Luella M. Smith and one of our speakers con- ducted service at a Tent meeting Saturday night: representing our Home Mission Campaign Club.

The subject of the morning discourse was, "Loving and Hating Life", and at the evening hour the subject was, "The Wise and Foolish Virgins". The Sunday School and League continue to be very helpful forces in the development of our church life. The young people are taking a decided and active interest in both.

April 26th at 7:45 D M THE MUSEUM OF ART FRIDAY, APRIL 24, 1925 But few Christians understand the underlying object or religious laws, is the claim of Elder P. G. Rodgers and he especially invites the deep thinking men and women of the LORD to hear this fourth sermon on United States in prophecy. Pastor Rodgers does not oppose Sunday laws simply because they are measures to establish a day which he cannot find is the Sabbath of the LORD—but he is opposed to any religious enactment of whatever nature it may be because man is accountable to GOD alone for the manner in which worship is carried on and no law of the land can create within the spiritual man the proper respect that GOD requires should be rendered to HM. HEAR THIS SERMON OF VITAL IMPORTANCE. Sabbath morning (Saturday) at the 11 o'clock service the Pastor will speak on "LAND." All are invited to be present—but come early to all these services as the church is packed to the doors at every service and many are the reasons for this—Cordial welcome, good music from the big choir and stirring sermons all the time, full of spiritual interest—deep Bible themes—and intelligence stamped on all that's said or done.

But at that he doesn't feel so very good. His dear wife is still at his bed side for every call and doesn't seem to worry the least about administering to his wants. We wish much improvement for Mr. Madison and a speedy recovery. A. A. Taylor Prop Kopper Kittle Kate is doing a land office business almost every night with his dinner dance. If you want good eats and dancing go to the K. K. K. Webb's orchestra, played there Monday and the guests went crazy dancing to the music of the best band on the coast. Some jazzing. The Whangdoodle Jazz Band entertainers are playing most every night, the big six piece band with three doubles. If you want them speak early for them because they are likely to be already engaged when you want them. F. R. Brooks, Mgr. Phone East 1344. I thank you. The Colored Business Sections of our city is progressing very nicely and business proprietors seem to be continually fixing up and also beautifying their establishments and making them more inviting for visitors, as they expect lots of tourists in Seattle this summer, and they are getting ready to meet the demand. They are: Jones Chile Parlor, the most beautiful place in the city, at 12th near Jasackson street, if you go there you get the very best service in the city; also the Monarch Billiard and Pool Parlor, 1203 Jackson Street, absolutely the swellest place of its kind in the city. These two are putting in new attachments to beautify the place in general. Mr. Otis Gordon is making additions in his Luzon Barber Shop to attract attention. The Alabamha Club, Felix Crain, Proprietor, is preparing and painting and fixing up for their callers. A nice clean place for a real good time. So if you pass that way give them a call. It will be appreciated. A very surprising coincidence may not be so surprising either. But really L. P. Woods looks either guilty or surprised "when his wife, Mrs. Helen Woods, Saturday, April 11th, went away. She didn't say where, she didn't say why. But all we can find out is she ain't here". Do you read regularly The California Eagle, the biggest and best paper on the coast? If you don't get it regularly, call East 1344, and ask for F. R. Brooks, agent. He will gladly order it for you at once. Don't wait, call now. I thank you. FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH PRESENTS PAGEANT The First A. M. E. Choir established another high land mark on Easter Sunday night, when they presented an unequaled pageant, portraying the death and resurrection of Christ. This pageant was especially arranged by Mr. C. C. Daniels, Choristor, assisted by Rev. T. F. Jones, Pastor. The electrical effects that were secured and operated by Mr. C. C. Daniels, gave each episode, namely Pilate's Court Room, The Garden, and The Tomb of Joseph of Aramathea, the natural beauty of the actual place of the happening of hte event. The thundering and lightening in the scene where the stone was rolled away from the sepulchre, was performed with such effectiveness that one would have thought he was witnessing the play at an opera house where all conveniences for such plays are especially arranged for. The principal speaking parts were taken by Mr. E. H. Booker, as Pilate; Mr. George Jones, High Priest; Mr. Jack Thompson, Joseph of Arimathea; The Misses, Glenda Steed and Evelyn Bundy as the two Marys; Miss Grace Fisher, Angel at the Tomb; Miss Hope Holiday, as the Interlocutor; Messrs. E. E. Epearman and Presley Holiday, Guards; Cartwright Ward, Pilate's special guard. A packed house witnessed this and all left saying that it was the greatest they had ever seen. When you come to Seattle be sure to visit First A. M. E. Church where you can always expect the greatest and best events.

Some participated in the dancing, while others sat in the park or in their cars to listen to the music. The tennis courts are expected to be completed by the end, of this month, the heavy rains being the cause of the delay. Eureka Villa is now becoming nationally known and can boast lot owners in some of the principal cities in the United States. At present negotiations are under way for a prominent St. Louis school teacher to purchase five lots. Other large purchases have been made in Bonner Springs, Kansas, Leavenworth, Kansas, and Memphis, Tennessee. Recent lot purchasers in Los Angeles and vicinity are: May Hobert Hicks, and Corrine Maddock Rhode, Monrovia, Calif. Mary E. Middlebrook, Maudell T. Davins, Wm. R. Folks, Reneb Lewis, Mme.

A brass band of 20 pieces of music, solos, duets, readings, quartets and a dialogue. Each participant appeared at and in their best, making it a 100 per cent program. Mrs. Clark was assisted by her husband, Mr. Robert L. Clark; Mr. T. C. Brodie, their well qualified chorist; Mrs. Webb, the efficient pianist, which made this affair 2nd to none of its kind here or elsewhere. If you were not present you certainly missed a genuine treat.

DEAR SIR: In issues of 11th inst. a number of our local dailies carried an article over the name of a Mr. Lathrop, giving what seems to me a very unfair version of an automobile accident in which on the 9th of last month, Miss Ada Dancy lost her life. This accident occurred in the city of Pasadena, and as a result of it a Mr. A. L. Johnson, chauffeur of Mr. Lathrop, was arrested on a charge of manslaughter. At the preliminary hearing of this charge the defendant was dismissed. However, the above said Mr. Lathrop, who was the wealthy employer of the said Mr. Johnson, and the owner of the high powered, 4-wheel brake roadster driven by him at the time of the accident, evidently laboring under some apprehension as to the effect that the dismissal of the defendant might have on the public mind, saw fit to a special article to all of the local papers, in which article he says that his chauffeur, Mr. Johnson, was proven to have been driving entirely within a legal rate of speed. In regard to this matter, I beg leave to state that according to eye witnesses to the accident the car driven by Johnson first struck the Dodge delivery truck in which Miss Dancy was riding, with such force as to smash its left rear wheel, bend the frame, turn the Dodge car over, kill one person instantly, seriously injure another, and thereafter skidded 72 feet. From these facts it would seem to be putting quite a strain upon the truth for Mr. Lathrop to give out to the public that his chauffeur was driving at a legal rate or speed, especially when there is also no question but that the Dodge car had the right of way. The Deputy District Attorney, for some reason, did not deem it necessary at the preliminary hearing to listen to the testimony of important witnesses. The witness from, all indications, knew most about the accident, was never given opportunity to testify. And notwithstanding MILITARY CENTER CITIZENS HOME INVESTMENT CO.

Mr. Lathrop's apparently biased version of the affair, it is quite evident to those who know am much about the facts as he does, that if all of the witnesses had been admitted to testify, the public would be in a better position to know who was at the time of this accident driving at a legal rate of speed. Such tragic accidents as this one cause too much expense and suffering, to say nothing of the horrible loss of life itself, for anyone to try, as Mr. Lathrop apparently has, to give the public the wrong impression as to who really are the guilty parties. And because the unfortunate victim of this tragedy was a poor girl, just in her teens, and a member of the colored race, the latter incident often making it a difficult thing to get a fair bearing in such cases as the above, I am asking that, if at all possible, you will kindly carry this letter in one of your issues, in order to let the public know the facts.

To PROTECT Your Water and Power BROOKLYN To The Voters Of The City Of Los Angeles! BY: WILLIS O TYLER Our racial group has been and generally is now, and on May 5th will be supporters of Mayor George E. Cryer! So far, I have been unable to find any reason why Mayor Cryer should be turned out of office in favor of Judge Bledsoe. The training of the two men is along different lines. The citizens of Los Angeles have trained Mayor Cryer in the Duties, Judgment, and qualifications a mayor need have and should have to preside as executive head of the various departments of a great city. This, you have done. The experience is, an accomplished fact. You cannot discount the element of Experience! Judge Bledsoe is a trained jurist, a judge whose training is in the administering of the law of the land by judicial decision. What Mayor Cryer has learned and now knows about managing the governmental affairs of Los Angeles, Judge Biedson has yet to learn. Why exchange an experienced, trained Mayor for an experienced Judge? It's a Mayor-Los Angeles needs, not a Judge! Los Angeles By Comparison In Chicago our group fares fairly well under both city and State Governments in the number and characters of apportive and elective offices held by Negroes. This is true in New York City. Why? Strict Party Government The answer is that in Chicago and New York, the city government is a "Party Government". Negroes in New York are for the most part. Democrats in Chicago they are Republican. By adhering to party lines they succeed (or fail) with party platform and party candidates. In Los Angeles, neither major party conducts the municipal elections—they are called "non Partisan". These words are a "mismomer". The city election is not "Republican-Partisan", or "elected Partisan", but it is very partisan, it is "partisan-individuality". A few men, a group, a clique, propose candidates and make the platform or policy. This is the worse kind of "partisanship" and the most pronounced kind of "politics". It is politics of the "interests", and the pity is it is paraded before the voter as a thing "non-partisan". Our Group Pays Our Group suffers from this program because after each election the successful candidate claims freedom from all, each and every obligation and no leaders remain to whom we can complain or of whom seek redress. In Chicago and New York, the Party is held responsible, and if it fails to make good is turned out at the next election. Since 1921, the city has grown and our participation in its affairs has, grown also. Mayor Cryer has placed no obstacle in the way of an extended employment of our group in city Departments! Los Angeles By Comparison Strict Party Government Los Angeles "Non Partisan" Our Group Pays Mayor Cryers Record If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE---You May Never Know It Happened Police Department In the Police Department on July 1 1921, when Mayor Cryer took office twenty race men were policemen. Their combined wages were $19,200 per year. On April 24, 1925, there are 55 race men in the ephecise department, an increase of 35. Their combined wages is $100,000 per year. Fire Department On July 1, 1921, the number of race men in the Fire Department was 12 combined salary 016,560 per annum April 24, 1925, the number of firemen is 32, an increase of 20 and their combined wages is $53,760 per annum. Park Department On July 1, 1921, our group had 20 Park Employees, whose combined salary was $52,400 per year: April 24, 1925, the number employed is 87, an increase of 57 men whose combined wages is $140,940 per year. Engineer's Department (a) Street Department: July 1, 1921, number of men 50; annual wages $54,000 per annum; April 24, 1925, number of men 150, increase 100 men whose combined wages is $258,000 per year. (b) Wagon Drivers July 1, 1921, 150 men whose combined wage was $162,000 per year April 24, 1925, number of men, 339, increase 189, with annual wages or $549,150. Summary Increase in number of men employed 401: Total employed, 663: Total wages, $1,101,880. From Group Standpoint! What is most needed now it three or four appointments to Commissions. Increase in participation has been made in the past; we hope and we believe it will be made in the future, not only along the line indicated herein but also by way of appointment to commissions. We are aware that in order to get this, we must show and present, substantially, a "solid front" for Mayor Cryer. I know and you know the value of a "campaign promise" without party responsibility. I bring you no such promise; I argue from figures; the logical deduction is that our recognition will be further extended by Mayor Cryer; it has not been curbed to round out Mayor Cryer's recognition of our large voting strength will. I believe come as a result of his experience, his fair-mindedness and of our past and present support. In the middle of this stream, we cannot swap horses. Departments Function Well We have a splendid Chief of Police. Rest yet so far. The Board of Public Works and Engineering Department are well manned and well conducted. The Mayor wrote or outlined our new Counter; the Mayor is experienced and knows of our support: whatever, of hope for commission appointments we have lies in a continued support of George E. Cryer. A few have jumped from candidate to candidate at each election without getting either promise or appointment. For the First Time, the New Charter, gives an added opportunity for these appointments. The need and the justness of the appointments are best known to George E. Cryer. Think Before You Vote All the constructive measures needed for the future management and growth of Los Angeles have been laid down under the direction of Mayor Clyer. Through his vision, we have a new charter; a budget system; plans for a new City Hall and Jail; a new Library; a new sewer system; nine new viaducts; a major traffic plan which extends to the widening and straightening of streets and a large extension of parks and playgrounds. More vital than anything else is the fact that we have a moderate water rate and are selling electric current by far cheaper than are the private concerns. To vote against Mayor now would be to vote against the one man who is master of the situation and knows the city's needs. As a member of the N.A.A.C.P., he has shown a friendly spirit and interest in our group and certainly we cannot hope to eventually receive recognition for which we clamor by dividing our support and following the band-wagon of every new-fledged candidate that comes along. Mayor Cryer and our group are now thoroughly acquainted with each other and it would be a sad mistake to desert Mayor Cryer's candidacy in this crucial time. Republican Protective League Endorses Mayor Cryer Officers: Wm. Qualls, President; Mrs. Gwendolyn Gordon, Secretary; C. Olivier, Ohn, Ex-Com. Executive Committee: C. Olivier, Chua; R. C. Owens, Vice-President; Atty. W. O. Tyler, 1st Vice-President. 214 Wilcox Building Los Angeles, California April 13, 1925 Metropolitan 3210 Vandike, 9244 We, the members of the Executive Committee of the Republican Protective League, and Citizens committee, have endorsed Mayor Cryer to succeed himself. We know Mayor Cryer DO, be a staunch Republican and that means a whole lot to us who recommenced him against the candidacy of Judge Bledsoe, who is a staunch Democrat. We feel, in reelecting Mayor Cryer to succeed himself, it not only means a victory to him, but to the Republican party as a whole, and we, as Republicans, will stand by and for Mayor Cryer in preference to Judge Bledsoe, a Democrat, to the Mayor's chair. Electing Judge Bledsoe to the chair means a stepping stone for governor or United States Senator. The Democrats, at this hour, are already organizing throughout the United States to defeat every Republican in the coking election for United States Senate. So let us not be misled by a non-partisan organization that has endorsed Judge Bledsoe. Mayor Cryer has done well during his administration, and we know of no reason why he should be defeated. He is opposed to the Crime Commissioners, a self-appointed organization, and we stand by him, for that reason for no other one. We feel that that man who is elected by the people should not be dictated to by any hand-picked organization. The primary says we should go to the people for our nomination and let us not violate the State law at this time nor at any other time. We also endorse S. B. W. May, Councilman 7th District and James Alexander of the 8th District. We sincerely hope that all loyal Republicans will support Mayor Cryer for re-election. C. OLVIER, Chairman WILLIS O.

STROLLING THRU THE BEAU MONDE WITH MADEMOISELLE By Dorothy Jean Armstrong Mille, will adore the dainty boudour cap of shadow lace and plec-edged grosgrain ribbon, secured on each side by a bunch of pastel colored silk flowers. An unusually attractive square-necked nightgown is of very fine batiste hand drawn and hemstitched. Another nightgown of pink crepe-dechine with hand hemstitching and pleats is equally as attractive. One imported powder box is of French gilt, studded with colored stones. Extremely chic is the Vanity case of black baked meatl and inlaid gold metal stripes. Fashion demands uncovered foreheads, but you do not follow fashion to the point of indiscretion. A deep blouse is the best way of achieving a straight line from shoulder to heel and filling up an exaggerated hollow. A model of white crepe marocain with silver embroidery, a novel effect is gained by the uneven lines of the drapery. The glass jewels of fashions consist of earrings with bright coloured centres, a necklace of glimmering green glass, a single bracelet of many amber strands, and a variable rainbow of circlets in fragile coloured glass. The low chignon collure, provides an ideal setting for lovely drooping earrings of rose quartz and diamonds in the shape of graps clusters. A rose quartz sautoir and a diamond four leaf clover ring complete the jewelled ensemble. The silk scarf and the plain yokes on skirt and bodice give chic touches to a pleated, sleeveless frock of geranium polona cloth, which may be worn beneath an overdress. A twopiece Russian blouse frock collared and cuffed according to the latest dictate closes diagonally at the low, belted waistline; the lower skirt section is attached to a lining. TO CLOSE FUND FOR PATRONS OF COMING PLAY TO CLOSE FUND FOR PATRONS OF COMING PLAY More than 1,700 people have subscribed to the guarantor's fupd, for "The Star or Ethiopia", the mammoth pageant to be produced here in June, according to an announcement made public last Thursday. This staunch support given the pageant by the city's most influential and most prominent citizens. it is said, insures its successful production probably at Hollywood Bowl, one of the largest open-air auditoriums in Southern California. The guarantor's fund was devised when the pageant machinery fasst put into operation as a necessary fund to defray small but vital expenses just incident to the drawing up of a cast and to costuming and other details of the production. Patrons to the fund were asked to subscribe as low as two dollars which can be exchanged for tickets at the first night's performance of the pageant. It is said that most of those who subscribed expressly asked for tickets and will accordingly be given them. An opportunity, however, is still open to many others who wish to take advantage of this offer to get reserved seats at the opening night's performance by subscribing to the guarantor's fund. The Y. W. C. A. on East Twelfth Street, pageant headquarters, has been the scene of almost breathless activity, it is said. Here subscriptions to the guarantor's fund are taken daily and information given out concerning various details of production now being worked out by pageant workers. It was emphasized by pageant workers that this opportunity to procure special seats will not hold out long. A deal will be met within the next few weeks to close all subscriptions to the fund. Meanwhile, prospective patrons may obtain their individual tickets by asking that they be reserved. Investment Chance Goes A Glimmering Unless Leon N. Heffin, of the Heffin Furniture Mfg. Company, decides to the contrary, the members of our group will miss an opportunity to buy an interest in a properous and going furniture manufacturing business. It was announced in the columns of this paper on the front page about two months ago that young Heffin was contemplating incorporating his business with the view to selling stock in the same to our people for the purpose of expanding his business. It was the intention of the firm to manufacture a complete line of house hold furniture. A recent announcement has been made that a group of white capitalists have investigated the business and books of the Heflin Mfg. Company and are seeking the privilege of advancing all the money necessary for the expansion purpose on very reasonable terms. So reasonable are the terms that the entire deal hinges on the personal desire of Mr. Heflin as to whether he wishes to deny the opportunity to his people to invest an previously promised or whether he wishes to have his organization remain a closed corporation. If he decides upon the later course then our people will miss a wonderful opportunity to procure an interest in a prosperous and industrious manufacturing firm. It is known that Mr. Heflin is giving this matter of just what course to pursue, very serious consideration and his decision is being awaited by a host of interested people. He stated that he would decide upon a definite course within the next ten days GREAT EVANGELICAL CAMPAIGN GREAT EVANGELICAL CAMPAIGN At Beth, Eden Temple, corner 27th and Paloma Streets, Evangelist C.

The Annual Spring Prom, which was given last Friday evening, April 17 at the Hummingbird Academy by the Omega Phi Phi Fraternity, was one of the most elaborate proms ever witnessed in Southern California. The Prom was well attended by every one invited. While Sunnyland's Red Hot orchestra furnished the last word in music from eight thirty until the wee hour of one oclock Saturday morning. There is not a word in Walters' dictionary or even an adjective that could express or describe the taste of the frappe which was served toward the later part of the evening. There were also many favors such as hats, balloons, whistles, whistling pipes, etc., distributed among the guests toward the latter part of the evening. A very pleasant evening was enjoyed, immensely by all. A number of the "Fleet" folks told the Sparks editor that the California Eagle has its name, because when it leaves the Post office it flies in all directions carrying news Saturday morning.

S. C. coed and one of the city's debonair young misses. This enterprise, young lady is the fire and spirit behind the pageant headquarters located in the W. W. C. A. Building on East Twelfth Street and has contributed in more ways than one in speeding up the production of the pageant. Her industry and kindly disposition serves as an attraction at the headquarters, and it is said that those who come in contact with her there, go away well pleased and making a column premise to give and be spent in the paycant cause. It is her many side-lines that makes her such an invaluable asset to the Junior N. A. A. C. P. Her dependability for changing from one phase of the work to another and of doing each faithfully until completed, has given rise to the inclusion of her names on at least two of the committees and several parts of the pageant program. In addition to these virtues, Miss Elsworth is a holder of a leadership record from Jefferson High School, secretary of the popular Belles Letters Club, prominent in security and college circles, and an influential member of several literary organizations. The Junior Branch of the Los Angeles N.A.A.C. is glad to present a young woman of these qualifications as one of its most diligent of pageant workers. It is earnestly hoped and confidently looked for that it will be able to perform more who display such qualifications. In the striking and arresting manner the Miss Junita Elliott has displayed them.

This episode brings to our mind that nobody as yet has volunteered to help Miss Turner occupy her own home at Graham which fact brings to our mind the lack of men of courage here in Los Angeles.

We want a man who will forever banish the restrictions in the Civil Service Department of our fair municipality, one who will insist that that body will maintain, not a white list, neither a black list but who will only have a list made up of all persons who by competitive examination gain places thereon.

There is no occasion to be boss ridden, the highest compliment you can pay yourselves is to walk up to the polls independent of any influence and follow the dictates of your conscience and cast your ballot. It is not sufficient for you to vote for a candidate because he has hired your automobile on election day or that some ward-heeler has escorted you to the polls, but it is very necessary for you to think, act and vote as your conscience may guide.

PAGE SIX STEPPING UP. BACK TREADING If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE---You May Never Know It Happened VIEWS AND REVIEWS VIEWS AND REVIEWS By "Twinklin Star" We are entirely in accord with the stand taken by the editor of the "Eagle" in opposition to the present city administration. As far as Mayor Cryer and his forces are concerned Negroes of Los Angeles count for nothing after election time. It is, we say without hesitation, a disgrace to have members of our race supporting and landing a man who has treated us with the most shameful contempt during his term in office. What for? Just for a "mess of potage":! "What evidence have you?" asked a friend of ours "that Bledsoe will be any better than Cryer?" "None" we answered; "but we contend that he is a FAR BIGGER MAN—Democrat on Plutocrat, we care not. He is evidence in itself that he is too big to be little, too high to be low, too broad to be narrow. If he deceives us, then we can, later on, vote for another and keep on walloping each fellow as he comes on the stage until, like the Nesgroes in New York and Chicago, we are given proper recognition in the civic administration of Los Angeles. It is a mark of worthless thinking to vote for men, however useless and incompetent they are simply because they belong to certain political parties with which we are affiliated. This has been the trouble with the average Negro who seems to dethrone reason and common sense in deference to his political connections, with the Republican party. To him no man who offers himself for service, however able and broad-guaged he may be, is worth anything if he is not a Republican and particularly if he happens to be a Democrat. These are the days when men are bigger and must in order to progress, make them selves bigger than their political affiliations. Mr. Negro, are you thinking? Judge Benjamin Bledsoe is unquestionably the biggest man ever sought by the Mayor's chair in this city. He has the force, the calibre and breadth of vision for the office. With him Los Angeles must in her growth, struggle to keep pace. With others, decidedly smaller in ability than he, there would be a struggle for them to keep pace with Los Angeles. Which is your choice, Mr. Negro. If you are compelled to use the other fellow's ideas give him credit for them, otherwise you will run the risk of intellectual theft. The idea of a "Better Behavior" program was, as far as we can remember, suggested some time ago by Mrs. C. A. Bass in an address delivered by her to one of our local civic organizations. We have since noted that that idea was accepted to be translated into practical effect by the organization in question. It is not to the credit of anyone, therefore, however original he effects to be, to now appreciate that it is a as his own. If it is not ignorant, it is theft. We pray to believe, however, that it is the former. If our Christi-tiquity is no bigger than our personal hopes, prejudices, and dislikes, then God help our claim on immorality! The religion of some so-called preachers is about the size of their pulps if as die! The liberal soul is not bounded by the personality of our enemies. It is too extensive to be limited by differen ces of opinion and mere forms of human expression. To Close Fund For Patrons Of Coming Pageant More than 1,700 people have subscribed to the guarantor's fund for "The Star of Ethiopia", the mammoth pageant to be produced here in June according to an announcement made public last Thursday. This staunch support given the pageant by the city's most inuential and most prominent citizens, it is said, insures its successful production at Holywood Bowl, one of the largest open air auditoriums in Southern California. The Guarantor's fund was devised when the pageant machinery was first put into operation as a necessary fund to defray small but vital expenses just incident to the drawing up of a cast and costuming, and of other details of the production. Patrons to the fund were asked to subscribe as low as two dollars, which can be exchanged for tickets at the first night's performance of the pageant. It is said that most of those who subscribed expressly asked for tickets and will be given them. An opportunity, however is still open to many others who wish to take advantage of this offer to get reserved seats at the opening night's performance by subscribing to the guarantor's fund. SUBSCRIPTIONS GOING FAST SUBSCRIPTIONS GOING FAST The Y. W. C. A. on East Twelfth Street, pageant headquarters, has been the scene of almost breathless activity, it is said. Here subscriptions to the guarantor's fund are taken daily and information give out concerning various details of production now being worked out by pageant workers. It was emphasized by the pageant workers that this opportunity to procure special seats will not last long. A date will be set within the next few weeks to close all subscriptions to the fund. OFFICE CAT TRADE MARK REG. By Junius IS THIS A SOCIAL ERROR Down in Texas recently a host inquired of his guest, while at dinner, whether he would have some corn. The guest passed his glass instead of his plate. Omar Kahyyam was taking a trot across the desert when his beast stalled on him. "Well", sighed Omar, "here's where I walk a mile for a camel." Women's skirts are three inches shorter, says a fashion ukase from Paris. It seems to be about time for the bow-legged sisters to be forming a bloc. One of the best things about the West is, says JOE BALEY there is plenty of parking space. I went out shopping with my wife. To get her some stuff for a hat. But, ere our tour was ended. The dear purchased much more than that. And, believe me, that's just what I got. "Some day you will go from Crimson Gulch to Chicago in an airship." "Will it be safe?" asked Cactus Joe. "Perfectly safe". "It may be safe in the ship, but not in Chicago." The only thing worse than being in a rut, is being on no road at all. "That's the cat's whiskers" said the man as he took a hair out of his glass of milk. Old-fashioned boy: "Gee! A whole quarter"! Modern boy: "What! Only a dollar?" "What would a woman be without her clothes?" asks a well known writer. Well it looks as though we are soon going to find out. If a man is a good man its because he wants to be. If a woman is good—who knows? "Genius goes for years unrecognized, but the easy mark is soon spotted." "More power to you", said the executioner as he threw the switch. The little girl was telling mother. All her little woes. "Mamma, what did moths devour Ere Adam'n Eve wore clothes?" It is said most of us spend out lives wearing out our clothes. Girls may be interested in clothes, but they're never completely wrapped up in them. Somebody has been looking at gas oline prices with a lighted match. A kid, thinks one, is a creature that can get just as much foun out of a tin pan and a stick as he can get out of a bran new drum and two sticks.

Los Angeles City And County Administration Center Plan 1 Prepared by the Allied Architects Association of Los Angeles. The plan bears a general resemblance to a great key. The upper portion, or handle of the key, takes in the Bunker Hill district, which is converted into a magnificent park, nearly a mile in length. At the southern end of this park is located the new public Library building, now under construction. The lower portion, or bit of the key, comprises the administration center where the administrative buildings of the various governments will be located. Provision is made for a great union terminal station, if it is decided to build the station in this section of the city. The old plaza and plaza church are carefully preserved and beautified in a setting which will recall the early history of the city.

A PLEA TO THE COLORED VOTERS RE-ELECT OUR PRESENT SCHOOL BOARD The Citizens' School Committee is again in action, determined to return to the School Board the same splendid, efficient men and men who have so successfully operated the great school system of Los Angeles the past two years. In no department of our civic life are the Colored voters' more interested than in that of our public schools. Life education of our children is of absorbing interest and is the outstanding hope of the Race. Los Angeles excels in her present School system which provides for day schools and night schools, open to men, women and children of all classes, regardless of race or creed, and in which not only the best literary training is to be had, but generally vocational training as well. This unparalleled educational condition has been brought about by the present School Board, elected two years ago on a platform of EQ'ALLTY and openly pledged to administer the affairs of the Public Schools with fairness, and justice to pupils, teachers and electors alike and not in the interest of any particular faction or group with the sole desire to render unselfish and effective work for the public welfare. The records show how faithfully the Board has kept its word; Through the present school administration 20 Colored teachers have been employed, upon the recommendation of the Eastside independent League a truant officer, Mr. Booker T. Washington, Jr. has been appointed and many janitors placed in the public school buildings; the contract for planning one of the largest and costliest school buildings was awarded to our own Mr. Paul Williams by the Building Committee of the present Board. The advancement and expansion of the last two years are but an earnest development of our schools, and we owe it to ourselves, to our children and to Los Angeles, generally, to return to the present School Board, intact, so that the educational program outlined for this great city may go on without interruption.

Great Throng Enthuses At Bledsoe Rally Following quickly on the heels of the big Bledsoe meeting at the 20th Street School house the great meeting at headquarters, 1321 Central Avenue, was the fitting climax to the greatest construction week for real interest in the issues of the present municipal campaign. The meeting at the 20th Street house was great, but the meeting at headquarters was one which was a demonstration of real enthusiasm and true interest in the future welfare of the community in which we live. The meeting itself was under the auspices of the Women's Auxiliary of the Bledsoe Campaign and the spacious rooms were crowded with as representative a gathering as it is possible to get to get in Los Angeles. Mrs. Billa Cassells was the presiding genius of the occasion and was superb in that position. GALAXY OF SPEAKERS During the wait for the principal speaker of the evening, the Hon B. F Bledsoe, short addresses were made by Dr. H. D. Prowd, J. B. Bass and others. DR. MARION TRACY WHITING At this juncture Dr. Marion Tracy Whiting arrived and was introduced and made one of the most sympathetic and telling speeches in behalf of Judge Bledsoe which was ever heard, and the same was applauded to the echo.

Bass, managing editor of the Eagle spoke next and her address judging by the voracious applause was most highly appreciated. JUDGE BLEDSOE ARRIVES As Mrs. Bass closed her address the Hon. Benjamin E. Bledsoe arrived and received a most thrilling reception. He delivered a masterly address and as he spoke, so sincere and convincing were his utterances that no one present had a liningering doubt that they would not be justified in giving him the most hearty support. At the conclusion of his address a general leeve was held by way of an informal reception, when all had the opportunity of shaking hands with Judge Bledsoe and meeting Mrs. Bledsoe who accompanied him. This was by far the best and most enthusiastic meeting held by our group throughout the entire campaign for any candidate. Before the meeting adjourned J. W. Coleman and Rev. Mitchell made short announcements of other meetings and spoke a few words of the great worth in behalf of Judge Bledsoe. Manager Wilson and Secretary, Miss Casselle are to be congratulated upon the splendid success of this great meeting. WEST VIRGINIA BARS "BIRTH OF A NATION" FILM (Continued from page 1) The management held up the film long enough to apply to the Judge of the Common Pleas Court of Kanawha County for an injunction restraining Mayoe Wortz an defender of Police John Bratton from interfering with the film. Judge Owen granted a temporary injunction and the picture was shown twice that day. Appeal to the Circuit Court the next day resulted in dissolution of the injunction and the picture was not shown that day. The following day, Friday, April 2, the theatre people applied to the Supreme Court of Appeals for anappeal supers-deas from the order dissolving the injunction. The Virginia Amusement Company, in its petition set forth that the Mayor's threat to arrest all the theatre employees and to seize the film and projection apparatus would be nonfiscisation of property without due process of law. The Mayor replied that nothing would be done to interfere with the production until the scene was reached where "a white girl is chased by a Negro from a spring and she jumps from a precipice; the moment that part of the picture was reached warrants would be served and film and machine would be taken as evidence". The Judge held warrants could be served and arrests made but film and machine could not be seized and issued a sweeping injunction prohibiting the Mayor an the Police Chief from interfering with the showing of "The Birth of a Nation". This injunction was dissolved by the Circuit Court Judge on the ground that "City authorities had a right to make the arrest under proper warrants that a crime had been committed and to seize the film, machine and other paraphernalia used in the production of the picture as evidence of the crime". This decision was unanimously sustained by the State Supreme Court. Mr. Nutter, who assisted the city officials throughout the fight, writes: "The fight made by Mayor W. W. Wertz and City Solicitor, ex-Judge D. Rumminehall, stands unparalleled in the history of the State. They made it a personal affair transcending mere official duty. Mayor Wertz was with the Committee that witnessed the picture Tuesday evening, and as soon as it was overdaaaF, a and as soon as it was over, rushed to the manager of the Rialto without consulting the Committee and said: "It is the worst thing I ever saw, and I cannot understand why any law abiding citizen should bring such a picture to Charleston. It will not be shown as long as I am Mayor of Charleston." Mr. Nutter states that in the fight he had the support of the entire colored citizenship of the city. The N. A. A. C. P. has extended congratulations to Mr. Nutter and is writing letters of appreciation to Mayor Wertz and City Solicitor Rummel. TENNIS BASEBALL FOOTBALL TRACK BOXING GOLF SPRT PAGE CALIFORNIA EAGLE COUNTRY CLUB ACTIVITIES WHITE: SOX WIN AND LOSE IN TWO EXCITING SUNDAY GAMES Number eight was the winning number at the Sox Park Sunday. The White Sox won the first game of the doubleheader 8 to 6. Stovall's Midway Petroleum Midway Oilers scampered home with the twilight affair and their winning number of tallies were 8. Four runs were the most the Sox could collect. Lonnie Goodwin, who, by the way, is out in uniform these days, handed the pitching assignment to southpaw Gurley. Gurley wasn't so good and he wasn't so bad. The Oilers scored six runs but all of them couldn't be charged directly to Gurley. Sixth Inning Petroleums—Isenberg safe at first on Ward's overthrow of first and was out at second, Adams to Wilson. Vancleave singled to center. Escobar hit The Oilers scored a run in the first inning. After Rose' first up popped to Fagen O'Shea went all the way to third base when his dinky fly dropped safely in right between Adams, Wilson and Fagen, bounced by Wilson and rolled to the fence. Bates next up flied to Bell and O'Shea held third. Riddle then jugged Stovall's grounder and O'Shea scored. The Oilers' tallied another run in the second, when Thompson hit a home run over the rightfield fence after Gurley had fanned the first two batters. The Sox rang the bell three times in their half of the second on Fagen's single, Adams homer, Butts walk, Gurley's triple to left. The Sox lost their lead in the first half of the third when a two base blow, a single hit batsman & Adams' fumble allowed 2 runs to cross the rubber. The White Hose tied the score in the sixth. Bell first up singled as advanced to second on Butcher's out and scored on Fagen's timely single to center. In the next two innings the Sox put over three runs and then one run, due to some fast base running an excellent squeeze play and Gurley's two hits including his second tripple. Both games were bitterly contested and the winner was always in doubt until the last out. In the second game the teams battled on even terms from the fourth to the seventh inning when Oilers with four hits drove Foote from the box and won the game. The attendance was not what it should have been but the fans should get the habit soon and turn out in large numbers. Tommy Shores has given up umpiring and is on the catching lines for the Sox.

Lonnie has his best gimmers out practicing this week and it is expected that Eagle coaches will be scattered all around the Sox field at 32nd and Ascot and the (Sox) will have Eagle meat for Sunday dinner. With good weather on the job Sunday's games should draw about the largest crowd that has ever turned out for Summer baseball. There is no doubt about the class of the Sox as a team. They have taken three of the four games played so far. Lonnie Goodwin is taking a personal interest in his club and is directing his team from the coaching box. As the result the Sox have displayed some real inside baseball and will continue to be a very hard club to heat. The first game will be called at 1:00 P.M. Grand Master G. U. O. Of O.F.

Knoxville Wins Debate Knoxville College won the annual triangular debate between Morehouse College of Atlanta, Talladega College of Talladega, Alabama, and Knoxville College of * Knoxville, Tennessee, which took the place of Friday, April 10th. The question debated was the ownership and control of the coal mines by the federal government. The question was defended by the affirmative teams on the home platforms, and attacked by the visiting negative teams. The Knoxville College affirmative team won a three to nothing decision against Talladega negative team at Knoxville, and the Knoxville negative team won a two to one decision from the Morehouse affirmative team, giving Knoxville a clear title to victory. Knoxville College had two well balanced teams this year. The nationization of the mines was defended by Mr. Gaither and Mr. Edwards, and attacked by Mr. Roberts and Mr. Smith. Mr. Roberts, a senior, is a veteran debater, having taken part in three debates, while at Knoxville College. The College will miss his spirited arguments another year. Mr. Gaither, the other experienced debater, began his debating last year as a freshman with a victory from Morehouse: in his two remaining years in college he should develop into an unusual debater, having now a forceful and lively delivery coupled with clearness in presentation. The two new debaters, Mr. Smith, a senior, and Mr. Edwards, a junior, were in no way handicapped by their lack of experience, but presented their arguments with clearness and force, showing themselves thoroughly familiar with their material and at home on the platform; it si only to be regrtted that these men did not make their appearance as debaters in previous years. Knoxville College has won five out of six intercollegiate debates in the last three years. EDW. W. MONTGOMERY, Reporter for Knoxville College.

JACK THOMPSON AND YOUNG SAM LANGFORD BATTLE SATURDAY Boxers Are Main Eventers At The matching of Young Sam Langford and Young Jack Thompson for the Main Event at the Lyceum Saturday brings together two of the best lightweights developed on the Eastside in years. Langford has been a crowd pleaser hereabouts for some three years. He has met and defeated some very classy boxers and though he has lost some decisions he has never been badly beaten. Jack Thompson has forged to the front in the past six months and while not possessing the experience of Young Sam he is conceded an even chance to win. Langford is fast on his feet, clever after a fashion but not a heavy puncher. Thompson has established himself as a good boxer and a murderous puncher with his right hand. He has won two-thirds of his battles by knock-outs. With the signing of Thompson and Langford the matchmaker of the Lyceum secured a match that should be a sell-out. The fans have wanted such a match for some time and now that the two are going to meet the Lyceum can expect to draw heavily from the Eastside population. Five bouts complete the Lyceum card for Saturday night. The semi-windup is for six rounds between Eddie Sylvester and Bernie Kilroy. The Special has Art Springer and Mel SURE!

Beal of the Beal Auto Company, agent for the Auburn S. It is pointed out by Mr. Beal that in past years, prior to the near approach of the much-discussed saturation point, the resale value of a car didn't carry the weight that it carries today. The demand for used cars exceeded the supply, and as he remarks, any make of car brought a fair figure on the used car market. "The resale factor, we believe, is one of the outstanding reasons for the remarkable sales records now being established by the new Auburn S, said Mr. Beal. An unprecedented demand for these motor cars on the new car market spells a similar demand for the Auburn on the used market, both demands the result of the motor car public genuinely recognizing the Auburn S as one of market value. The demand for used cars is at this time indicated by the many calls daily at our sales offices on Central Avenue, for used models of various lines. It has been our experience that many recent purchasers of Aupurn cars through our organization have been influenced in their selection by their ability a year from this time to turn their cars with but small depreciation losses. WIDENING OF ROAD PLANNED Big Bear Enthusiasts Want To Make Regular Boulevard of Forrest Home Lane Redlands, April 18—The Forest Home road, that portion of it between Kamp Kill Kare and Forest Home is to be widened and paved with macadam so as to make a real boulevard. The project has been under way for some time but no announcement was made until the success or it could be assured. The method adopted for financing the projects is to organize a district of the interested property owners, have the benefits to all estimated by a disinterested commission, and allow to each property owner his share of the expense. There was some doubt as to whether this plan could be woked out satisfactorily, due to the fact that so many cabins are on government land, but it is understood that practically all of them have agreed to waive that right of exemption. It is estimated that the paving will cost in the neighborhood of $50,000. The rapid improvement of values of property in this desirable canyon make necessary a paved highway.
