G. C. Ake, Floor Mgr. R. E. Britt, Jr. Chm. Entertaining Committee. TELEPHONE: VAndike 9244 Phone: VANDIKE 9244 Vol. 39 COMMENTS W. J. WHEATON Why is it? There cannot be a happening of any note but what the American Negro has to be in some way named. Even the big strike in Green, Britain is no exception. There was a press release that the British government contemplated the importation of South African and American Negroes to combat the general strike now in existence. The importation of the South African is both possible and probable. But, why the American Negro? That is both an improbability and impossibility. Yet the mere inference has a hurtful tendency, especially when the American Negro is using all of his energy to have his rightful place in the laborer recognized. The American Negro laborer may enter into positions at home which have been vacated by strike, because the Unions are so intolerant and prejudiced that they will not admit him to equal membership. But he is too honorable to think of invading a foreign country for such purpose. Too loyal to the standard of American principles of labor to lend himself to such an idea, even if it were possible. -00- In a recent article on the Orient the Hon. Chester Rowell says, in part that: "The white man's civilization is still superior in guns, in machinery, in money, in organization. No Oriental will now conceive that it is superior in anything else, or that these are the permanent essentials of progress. But the Chinese onsee that we deal deferentially with the Japanese, because they too, have guns and strong government, and they say that if we, like certain African, onestiffs, lend our respect only to the show of foe, they may have to stoop to dealing with us on that basis. "Asia learns, too, that the white man's lands are far lands; that struggle and starvation are not the necessary lot of mankind, and that the white man is selflessly holding for his posterior lands which he cannot use himself, against the least meets of the bungy horrors of Asia. All Asia chafes under the ban economically, and Japan resents it spiritually as an unwarranted and offensive interrogation of racial superiority." It is to be wondered at this Superiority complex of the white race. Emment writes, men who observe the tend of world events, agree that less there is a radical change in the attitude of color of the white races that will be such an upheaval as never has been chroniied in history. Same men, of both the white and darker peoples, see the menacing cloud and are trying to avert the disastrous event. Writing further, Mr. Rowell says: "In this awakening Asia is our opportunity, as well as our challenge. A thousand million people wait to be traded with. They want our goods and they will strive to increase their production, to send as their goods in return. "Great investments of capital will be needed in the Orient; then we shall be concerned in politics, to protect that capital. Orientalists will increasingly demand rights of us which we are not disposed to grant. In retaliation, they are masters of the boycott, and we may again have conflicts at home between those who would promote trade and those who would protect our institutions. All these things will affect all of us, and we shall all care. "Our face henceforward is toward the wset, which is the east, and the Pacific Coast is become the Front door, as well as the outlook window, of Europe and America." —00— When this United States of America shall learn her lesson of racial tolerance and treat all of her nationals with that consideration and justice which the Constitution grants then will she set the 'example of tolerance to the world and take her place as the leader of nations. Tries To Kill Father With Axe (By: the Associated Negro Press) Raleigh, N. C. May 3—Fast footwork, according to police officers, is the only thing that saved Vack Tucker, who his son, George Tucker, sought to split his head open with an axe. George is held in jail on a charge of assault with intent to kill. Today, Friday, May 14, the Managing Editor and Publisher of the California Eagle, Mrs. C. A. Bass goes to Ventura about 55 miles north of Los Angeles, in Ventura County, to prosecute a rank case of discrimination, which is against the laws of California. Briefly, the facts are that Mrs. Bass, in company with Dr. Vada Somerville, a graduate of the University of Southern California; Miss Madeline Johnson, a student of the same university and Mrs. Pardon, talented musician and woman of National reputation, were en route to Santa Barbara, November 6, 1925, to deliver an address, before the Unitarian Club Women (white) of Santa Barbara. This club is composed of the leading and most prominent citizens of that section. The party on its way having had an early start from Los Angeles became very hungry. They pulled up at a public inn at Ventura and were pointedly refused on the ground stated that they refused to serve them on account of their color. As good as the managing editor felt assured, she sued them as provided by the institute of California. The case has been set for today and the same party will journey to Ventura to prosecute the case. Mrs. Bass is represented by Attorneys Lewis K. Beeks and Afue McDowell. The defendant has asked for a jury and nowit remains to be seen whether or not that justice abides in this spot of California, and American citizens of good repute can obtain the same. Business League To Be Guest of 2nd Baptist Church Sunday evening will be a big evening at the Second Baptist Church when the Los Angeles Branch of the National Business League will be the guests of the Second Baptist Church. All Business men and those who appreciate progress and advancement of the race are especially invited. The League has been asked to provide a short program and Dr. T. L. Griffitt will preach a brief sermond emphasize better and bigger business. Mrs. C. A. Bass will deliver the principal address among others who will speack are Dr. Albert Baumann E. W. Fisher and roll call of members. In order that the public may be better informed as to the scope and purpose of the National Business League and its activities in Los Angeles I wish to advise that, by its very nature, it encourages friendship and seeks to promote confidence among business men and its members. Among other things, it offers its services in an advisory capacity against smaller companies, such as the cat" stock companies that may attempt to organize in the community Mary a man has put his money into just a "scheme" and lost. If he had consulted a competent advisor he would not have lost his money. Right here is where the Business League comes in and offers free advice. This is a real service to the community. Thousands of dollars may be saved to many an anxious investor if he first would impquire of the Business League as to whether it is safe to make such investment. The League also afford a wonderful opportunity in the study of such subjects as "Supply and Demand," "Production," "Distribution" and "Consumption." As often as possible, able lecturers are secured for this purpose to the end that a better understanding of these subjects may be had, not only by the business and professional men, but by all persons who are not members of the League and who wil come out to our meetings. The League has no wild propaganda to spread. It teaches no race-hating lessons. It offers no boycotting advice. It does not organize new companies. Its main object is to create friendship in business and advise how to cooperate to make bigger and better business. We do not tell you with A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL Cincinnati, Ohio, May 8—Wendy Phillips, Dabney, editor of the Cincinnati Union, and author of "Cincinnati's Colored Citizens," a history of the part Negroes have played in the development of the city, in the midst of congratulations received from leaders all over the country over the publication of his book, is now the possessor of a "removal notice" from some of his white friends in the city. Wednesday morning Dabney picked up his voluminous mail and immediately opened an envelope, which bore a strange mark on the back. The letter inside, informed him that his book was a label on certain white people of the city and that a group aligned with the writer of the letter would give him thirty days to leave town. Dabney laughs and says they can come and get him. The objectionable features of the book are those referrals to the intimate relations between whites and colored in the city in the old day. Dabney charges Thomas Jefferson with having a colored son, a number of Cincinnatians with having colored relatives, and goes so far as to support the rumors relative to the colored blood of a lately deceased American President from Ohio.

GARDINER The trio, whose pictures appear above, now in Los Angeles, are the winners of the Song Contest for the "California Maid" Exposition, an institution of California manufacturers to the title "My California Maid" in which contest there were 6000 songs offered in competition for the prize of $500.00 offered by the exposition. Some of America's foremost popular song writers were entered therein. However, by the decision of the judges these three young men were awarded the $500 cash prize. The accompanying cut is a face-simile of the check which was handed to them as a result of the contest. These young men, better known professionally as Rene-Ellison-Rene, song writers, were featured throughout the Exposition with Brick En- Chicago Defender Heads Seek Coolidge Conferences Washington, D. C., May 12.—Robert S. Abbott, publisher of the Chicago Defender, and N. K. McGill, his brother-in-law, now general manager of that publication, called on President Calvin Coolidge last week. Rumors about the capitol were to the effect that they had made the visit in the interest of Mr. McGill who prior to the recent Illinois primary was indorsed for assistant district attorney by Senator McKinley. Since the senator's defeat for renomination some doubt has existed as to whether the promised plan will be forthcoming. It is said Mr. Coolidge was rather non-committal as to the prospects. The visitors were introduced to the president by Senator Charles S. Deneen. After the conference they departed for Jacksonville, Florida, traveling incognito, this being it is said one of the few trips, into the southland which the editor has felt it safe to make in recent years.

Used as official song of the California Maid Exposition, a verse follows: "My California Maid A girl you love to serenade No, not from the East But from the Golden West. She's so sweet you'd love to meet her Cause she's different from the rest; Makes brightness look like shade, The clouds all seem to fade, Sun-kissed smiles and all of that I told you when I found her My California Maid." Quits Church; Blames Negroes, Jews, Catholics section in which his church is located is "now almost completely taken by Jewish, Catholic and Negro people, so there is no possibility for the accomplishment of real Christian work," the Rev. George Walton King has resigned as pastor of the Northminster Presbyterian Church on West 115th street. He claims to have had extreme difficulty in making matters go with the gradual coming into h's district of foreign elements.

WOMAN SHOOTS KLANSMAN Oneonta, Ala., May 8.—Klansmen who invaded the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Cobb, got a dose of their own medicine Sunday night when the man and his wife offered resistance to the klan mob and engaged in a free-for-all and pistol mulee. Mrs. Cobb shot one of the white men, Andrew Moses, through the hand and was in turn shot by one of the invaders. It has been impossible to learn the motive for the attack, but klan activities in this district have been so annoying that, many public-spirited citizens are urging a special investigation. Forresters--MON.EV R. E. Britt, Jr. Chm. Em OWNER OF GORDON MANOR GETS OUT INJUNCTION AGAINST COUNTY SUPERVISORS Dr. W. C. Gordon the owner of the Manor Gowan Sub-Division which comprises 230 acres of the most valuable land and most prominently situated at the juncture of three boulevards, just a few miles this side of Redondo, on last Monday went into the Federal Court and procured a temporary injunction to restrain the Board of County Supervisors from condemning this wonderful property for park purposes. It is an open secret among the Ku Klux Klan and Southern Crackers that they in reality want no park here, but the bug under the chip in this situation is the fact that the colored people have just about bought all of this tract out and they have decided the only way to halt them as residents at this point where they get the full benefit of the sea breezes to condemn the property and they have sought out to do this thing; and it is the opinion of all parties to the proceedings that the Board of Supervisors was just about to bow in humble acquaintance to the same. With this relief in mind, and that there was no question of the insincerity of those who sought to condemn, Dr. Gordon has sought relief in the Federal Courts on the ground that a group of citizens were about to be framed for their possessions solely on account of their-color. The temporary injunction was granted and the case comes up for a hearing on June the 8th. The following clipping from the Daily Times of Tuesday morning: "PROMOTOR TRIES TO NIP PARK PLAN "Colored Reality Man Asks Injunction, Charging Mist to Rob Him of them." "The Board of Supervisors, County Counsel Mattoon, Henry Green, Elizabeth Green and two others were named as defendants in a suit, for an injunction filed in the Federal court yesterday by Wilbur Clarence Gordon, colored subdivision promoter. "Gordon seeks to restrain the Board of Supervisors from further activities to acquire as a public park a tract of land fronting on the Riverside and Redondo Boulevard, beach property between Los Angeles and Redondo Beach. The Board of Supervisors on April 12, passed a resolution of intention of so doing. "In his suit, the promoter charges discrimination because of his color, and declares that an effort is being made to deprive him of his property in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment. He asserted that he contracted to buy 213 acres of the total 300 acres of the tract for $600,000, and intended to sell it in small tracts to other colored people, the ultimate plan being to establish a Negro settlement on the place. "He further declared that he entered contracts aggregating $600,000 for improvements and that other Negroes had acquired interests in the proposition. Opposition of white people owning land in the neighboring vicinity to a Negro settlement. Gordon asserted, was responsible for the proposed condemnation plan and the creation of the park idea."

The two men in charge of Los Angeles' water and power systems The Magic of Water and Power A STORY OF THE ROMANCE OF WATER AND POWER IN THE UPPBULDING OF LOS ANGELES EDITOR'S NOTE--This is the 12th and concluding one of a series of short articles revealing the vital importance of water and water power in the development and prosperity of Los Angeles. BOULDER CANYON POWER Construction of Boulder Canyon Dam on the Colorado River, United States Government engineers have revealed, may be entirely financed through the sale of the tremmedous volume of hydro-electric energy that will be made available for development at the site of this towering structure. The water held in storage behind a dam 550 feet high, Government surveys disclose, will be capable of generating a peak load of 1,000,000 horsepower of hydro-electricity or a continuous flow of energy amounting to 600,000 horsepower. In accordance with the recommendations of Secretary of the Interior Hubert Work, Boulder Canyon dam legislation, now pending in Congress, provides that William Mulhulland, Chief Engineer E. F. Scattergood, Chief Electrical er and Light. The two men water and CAMO HAIR CO. MARCELL WAVING MRS. ADA ROSS. Pres. Camo will stop your Hair from falling; Cure Scalp Diseases and Itching; Promote a full growth of Hair. 956 East 23rd Street this electricity shall be generated in a plant to be constructed and operated by the federal Government sold to the various municipalities and agencies in the Southwest in need of electricity. Canalways of the electric power needs of Southern California and the Southwest generally have shown that there is a significant demand in this region for all the electricity available at Boulder Canyon dam. The citizens of Los Angeles by a vote of four to one have already instructed their municipal officials to contract with the Federal Government for a fair share of the electricity that will be available when Boulder Dam is constructed. So rapid has been the increase in the use of power and light in this city during the 1960s and 1970s, the Burden of Power and Light in now able to generate in its plants along the Owens River Aqueduct only about 60 per cent of the energy it distributes to its consumers. The remaining 40 per cent the Bureau must purchase wholesale from a private power company. A study of the growing electric power needs in the Southwest discloses that by 1935 the region within economic power transmission distance of Boulder Canyon will require 1,750,000 horsepower of electricity more than it is now consuming. This amount is almost three times greater than the 600,000 continuous horsepower of Boulder Dam. Thus, it is manifest, the growing need for hydro-electric energy in the Southwest will provide a ready market for all the energy available from Boulder Dam. of Municipal Water Bureau, and (right) Engineer of Municipal Bureau of Pow-in charge of Los Angeles' power systems Use of Boulder Canyon power in industrial, commercial and agricultural expansion throughout the Southwest will create new national wealth of huge proportions, engineers and economists point out. Taking as a basis for computation the present wealth of Southern California co-ordinate with the quantity of electric power now in use, it is found that no less than $15,000,000,000 of additional wealth will be brought about by putting Boulder Canyon power to work in Arizona, Nevada and California. Through the use of a share of this power in Southern California, profitable employment will be created for the ever growing army of men and women that is pouring into his favored region each year. It is, therefore, apparent that Boulder Canyon power will not only provide the means of financing the great dam, but will also enrich the entire nation through its use in moving new wheels of industry and commerce. Furthermore, power from Boulder Dam will be a vitally essential phase of the Colorado River Aqueduct project. In order to bring domestic water from the river into Southern California through this great artificial waterway, it will be necessary to raise it over several intervening barriers. Power from Boulder Dam will be required to operate the pumps used in lifting the aqueduct water over these mountain obstacles. Los Angeles already has launched the construction of its Colorado River Aqueduct. It awaits only the action of Congress to share in the benefits of Colorado River electric power. With its aqueduct it will bring in enough water to supply 7,500,000 more people. With its power it will build permanent prosperity for these millions. Thus, Los Angeles stands today ready to write upon the records of time, the greatest and most brilliant chapter of its marvelous romance of water and power.

JONES Of Christ Temple Church, 37th and Naomi Streets THE BLOOD AND THE PRIESTHOOD Preached at the Big Tent, 7th and Locuts, Long Beach, Calif., May 10, 1926. Text: See Lev. 8:24. The things of the first covenant, of which Moses was the mediator were types and shadows of the things which we now enjoy in a splendid and glorious reality. The text tells us of what Moses had to do in dedicating or consecrating the Levitivital priesthood. 1. The typical priesthood and the real. The priesthood of the house of Aaron was typical of the church, just as the ram of consecration also was a type of Christ. In Revelation 1:5, 6, we read, "Unto Him that loved us and washed us from our sin. In his own blood and hade us kings and priests unto God." In First Peter 2:9—"We are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a pecuilar people. "We are the priests of the earth, the intercessors for men Godward, and the intercessors for God manward. Woe to the earth when there was no longer a work, though good-washed church; when there is no longer a Christianity consecrated by blood to the service of God. "Woe to the earth, for we who believe in the Christ and serve God in Him are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. We are what Lot was to Sodom and what Abraham was to Lot. The church is earth's real priesthood. What will the world do when these are no longer a people in it who know the way to the throne of grace? 2. The blood. Now, God's priesthood is under blood—always was. There is (1) the blood of redemption, as when the children of Israel went out of Egypt they were redeemed by blood fm the power of Egypt, even from all that Egyptian bondage carried with it. 2. Then there is the blood of reconciliation. Reconciliation means that two parties who were at outs have got together again and become friends. But there is another term that means reconciliation and is used at times in the Bible—that is, atonement, or at-one-ment. It means that sacrificial blood brings one with God again (3). Then he gives the blood of 'consecration. Our text reads especially with that, I am glad of the blood of conservation. It is, possibly, the very noblest aspect of religion. To be so cleansed and dedicated to God that He can give us something to do and grace to do it is great. To be a servant of the Most High is the very noblest of all callings and occupations. But they who would know the happiness of divine service must have the blood first on the ear then on the hand, then on the foot. We cannot hear God's word, nor His calls, nor His commands without blood on the ear. The ear must be redeemed, reconciled, consecrated. "Hear, and your soul shall live." Isa. 55. Blessed is the nation that "hears" the joyful sound. Said Isaiah (32) "and they that hear shall hearken." Nobody else can hearken. And it takes more grace to hear than it does to preach or testify or sing or talk. Hear. The gospel has something in it that makes it hard for men to hear unless helped from on high. Of course we must not be hearers only as said James. The blood on the right ear. That dedicates or consecrates our hearing to God's Word, even to holy, heavenly truth. The ear under the blood. You can then hear the voice that speaks in secret, the "still small voice." Have you dedicated your hearing powers? Do you love to hear the truth? In the word of God music to you? Or do you love the sound of vanity and trash and lies while you have no ear for the truth. Then the hands must go under the blood to do His service. The blood was put upon the thumb of right hand, Service. That hand henceforth belongs to God to do His will, to serve in His sanctuary. Then the blood was placed on the big toe of his foot, then to walk the way of holiness, to go on God's errands to help in the salvation of the world: Ears, feet, hands, all dedicated to God, consecrated to His service—under the power of the blood that redeems, atones, sanctifies. Has your heart grasped this truth? Do you see its meaning? Have you realized the powers of your life under the blood? Without a believing heart truly you cannot understand what I mean. God make you and me wise unto salvation. If there was nothing in blood the Bible wouldn't say so much about it. Get under its power. Then you will not need hootch, nor dope, nor to kill yourself, nor to join some band of neighbor-hating murderers and secret marauders, nor any of these things. You will delight in the Lord and glory in your high calling. You and God are then at one. What glory! The advantages of this world do not last nor do they satisfy. But heaven is eternal and gives everlasting satisfaction. Put the whole being under the conservating blood of Christ. Then you will be of real service to God and to the world. Amen! BUSINESS TALK DR. T. L. GRIFFITH ARE WE THINKING? Let us suppose that we have in Los Angeles twenty thousand wage earners working six days a week, and receiving each four dollar sa day. This in round numbers would represent a total pay roll in a year of twenty-five million dollars. We have many skilled laborers who receive much more than four dollars a day. But on the other hand we have many who do not work every day of the week. I think the average above suggested is sufficient for the purposes of this article. It is very easy to figure out that the annual wages of Los Angeles colored people far exceeds twenty-five million dollars. What could that money do if properly directed by us as a people. What could half of it do if we understood better the lessons of coehomizing and saving. We are loose spenders and consequently poor savers.

There remain several thousand people in the city who could undertake some other enterprise. There are millions of wages of wages of our people unreachable by this or any other church enterprise. We could add to the economic usefulness of the Negro race if we could think our way into conserving this twenty-five million dollars of annual wages into the developing of stable lines of business among us as a people. After it comes to us in wages, it finds its way into the channels of trade. It goes for food, clothing, rent, furniture, jewelry, automobiles, and everything necessary in modern life. It could use it, and use in giving employment to our own people in the higher walks of life, if we knew how to do it. When we insist on spending all our earnings in the stores operated by the other race, we are justifying them in providing for us only the menial lines of employment. But when we become business competitors, we open in their stores the more desirable elines of employment. When our new building was under construction we thought of one store from which we might have bought goods to the amount of over thirty thousand dollars. I thought it was a good time to apply for a worthwhile position for one of our young college women. The place which the employment manager offered me I cannot with propriety name in print. If there were a large Negro department store offering keen competition these stores would offer larger opportunities to our deserving young people. If Muskogee, Okla., can support a department store, why not Los Angeles, Calif. We go to school to quicken our power to think. When a larger number of us begin to think of the development of the economic side of our life as a 'people, we will give larger support to our people in their business and professional undertakings.

DELTA SIGMA THETA The educational programs presented at the various churches, the Y. W. C. A. and other places during, the annual Delta May Week were a source of pleasure and inspiration to those who availed themselves of the privilege of hearing them. The Deltas were successful during this educational campaign in adding materially to the $1000 scholarship fund awarded annually to some worthy student. They take this means of thanking the public for their hearty co-operation and support and the newspapers who so kindly aided them in giving publicity to the drive. The most notable addresses of such well-known women educators as Dean Crawford of U. S. C., of Mrs. Swartz of U. C., S. B., and the presence of our beloved dean of women of U. C., S. B., Mrs. Helen Matthewson Laughlin were a source of great inspiration and material benefit to the young women engaged in this campaign.

Upton THE LOST CITY BOYS DAY THE STRIKE IN GREAT BRITAIN The big labor leaders of this country should watch with interest the results and outcome of the Strike in Great Britain. Employers who are paying low wages in this country and demanding long hours, keping down the standard of living of their employees, endeavoring to take 99 cents out of every dollar that underpaid labor makes for them should particularly watch the outcome and demoralizing effects a strike of this nature is having upon the industries of Great Britain. A contented employee who knows he can pay his bills without cutting a meal, or stinking on his family, continually going further and further in debt is bound to be an asset to any employer; on the other hand the one that is underpaid so that he finds it utterly impossible to meet the demands of his creditors is sure to gradually become radical, dissatisfied, quarrelsome and a liability to any employer. If all the heads of our large corporations would read the articles now running in the newspaper written by Henry Ford and pattern after him with a live and let life policy, labor troubles of any importance would be a thing of the past. The time is coming when an honest day's work will demand an honest day's pay, then and not until then will the capitalist and the laborer be on peaceful terms, and efficiency reign supreme. 00— SOCIAL CLUB ORGANIZED A social club to be called The Tuxedo, was organized last week, and will put on many social functions in the near future; J. Carter and W. Carter are charter members of the new club, so it ought to be red hot from the past reputations, of these two social lions. NEW LINES OPEN UP A new line which will take fourteen men to operate was inaugurated last week between Los Angeles and Oakland, and L. A. and El Paso; it comes in just in the nick of time because the extra board had become so dull that many o' the extra men were on the verge of joining Cox's army. The first which all helps out, while they are not hauling many people at the present time this line usually runs heavy during the summer. REVENGE He was thirsting for revenge on account of J. White bumping him off of his Owenyo line, so he picked on R. Bradford and is now running to San Diego—Guess who? 00— They tell me every time King Do-Do gets out in S. F. that he has to lay off when he comes back home—that's funny, ask Asbury my reporter, he knows. 00— R. Hicks, popular Pullman Porter of this district, left last week for Dallas, Texas, to visit his mother, Mr. Hicks has not seen his mother for eight years. Mr. A. H. Hohman. Welfare worker of San Francisco has been taking charge of Mr. L. A. Coffins work during his illness, while here he has been a glutton for punishment in instructing many new men. The writer dropped in his school the other day and happened to overhear a few words pummed off which he is sure are not recorded in the Bible, but now they do that now and then. While here Mr. Hohman is stopping at the Bronx. T. Davis No. 1 has left this city on the Sunset Limited for New Orleans to visit his wife and children. We wonder if he will wear that derby hat. 00— One button Joe Holmes had his mollars jerked out last week, preparing for old age. Joe will eat oatmeal three times a day now for the next three week. Instead of walking the dog, our friend Mr. L. W. Davis rides the dog. How come, you ask." Well, he has purchased a curb stone setter of high blood pressure, and good manners. He film airing in his auto.— "Hot Dogs!" 00 Mr. Johnny Moore, the social lion operating on the Lark, stepped out to the show the other night but thought he was in upper one. When the usher woke him u pafter the show was all over, Johnny asked him, how many shorts he had. The usher told him that he was the only short. Yes, short $8.65 for his ticket. Told Lowry must be keeping him up late, or is it the Maids? 00— J. Ponder took A. H. Hohman and L. A. Coffin out to magnetic hill some time ago and run out of gasoline, his guests had to push him four blocks for gas, this is old news but it was just too good to keep. 00— G. W. Henderson, popular widower is now in the market for a good wife. Mr. Henderson is good-looking, got a red hot enclosed car and makes good money but has no one to take care of it for him, any young lady who wants to take a chance with him please address th ewriter and he will gladly arrange an introduction. Did you know that down home they wore Wortham, Tribly. How come, Jim? I If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Has Mr. Ecton and Mr. Phelps have got a first class Picture Studio at 1938 Central Ave, which is the talk of the town, all the elite are catering to these boys who are turning out work that is little short of remarkable. Mr. Ecton was formerly a wafter on the Santa Fe, although he mastered his trade a number of years ago and now is realizing a life time ambition. All railroad men should go by his California Studio and give him the once over. 00- Mr. L. A. Coffin was driven up to Elhino last week in J. Pender's Essex where he will occupy J. Worthen's Cabin in an effort to recuperate for the big rush. 00- Gus Walker is seriously ill, and it is reported that he has been taken to the hospital. 11- The following man were reported sick last week: L. Hall, D. Hood, C. H. Washington, W. Garner, T. Harris, M. Washington, W. E. Marshall, C. Brown, R. Fisher, M. Smith. What was a small list in the way of request to go on the Shriners specie has now become a mile long, even can't can go boys; so it's every TUB. 00 SOUTHERN PACIFIC Among the things of interest that occurred last week was the granting of a charter to the S. P. employees union and local of Los Angeles and the Pacific Coast. The occasion was marked by many eloquent speeches at a banquet given at the Bronx Hotel. Mr. McFarland, Chm. of the grievance Committee from Oakland; Mr. F. L. Freeman; Mr. Clarence Johnson and many other notables of the Southern Pacific were there including Fred Thornton. Mr. McFarland was the chief speaker of the evening and was followed by Mr. Johnson. It is thought by many that the time will not be long now when the boys will receive an increase. CVID SCOTT DUCKS GOLDEN STATE In a recent shake-up on the S.P.P. many of the waiters were put on different runs which caused no little confusion as many of the boys had reached the place where they thought they could not run any place but on the run they were on; but old man Kendall soon put a stop to that and now you are very likely to see some of the old heads who have been getting all the gravity up and down the coast where it is nice and cool, hitting the dusty trails to Chicago on the Golden State Limited. Not Owl Scott, however, he sang the blues to old man Kendall so mournful they say any Mr. Kendall actually told them, and he got out of it so far, but who knows so well that he is a shame to speak Owl so far from Black Hollywood when he is so deeply in love with a certain young Miss. Gus Hogue who will be remembered by some of the old timers is still hitting the ball at Bulls department store and getting along nicely. MR. PERCY BUCK Too much praise cannot be given Mr. Percy Buck the traveling instructor for the S. P. Dining car system. Rising from the ranks about six years ago, he has held this enviable position so eldom offered to members of our race, and has been of untold help not only to the Company but to the boys. Of a jolly disposition, and a good mixer, he is able at all times to put the men at ease, yet at the same time instilling into them the principles of first class service and fulfilment of the rules of the S. P. Needles to say he has smoothed over many difficulties between the men and the powers that he and through his school car maintained at the commi- nary, initiated many a "rookie" into the secrets of regulation diner car service. We take cut hats off to Mr. Percy Buck, and long may he continue hi good work Mr. Thomas Smith has been transferred from Golden State diner, 10117 to 10115; he's with a real crew now. Mr. J. A. Evalyne one of the S. Ps. best cooks has just returned from Houston, where he went to visit his relatives all of whom he found sick in the Flu epidemic there. He lost a brother by death in the mean time. That new train, the Argonaut is reported by the boys to be a humdinger. Mr. Sam Lawson, highly praised chef of 10115 has a philosophy all his own—Live while you can, for when you are dead you're a long time gone—Thanks to Harry Levette. LEGAL POINTS AND POINTERS Q. If a person owes another a debt and sends him a check mark "payment in full on account" when in fact, the amount of the check is less than the debt, may the creditor retain the check as part payment on account and look to the debtor for the balance? Or does the acceptance and retention of the check by the creditor operate so as fully to discharge the debt? A. Yes. If the debt is uncertain in amount, or if it is a disputed one, the act of the creditor accepting and retaining the check would amount to a full accord and satisfaction of the debt, which would be implied from his retention of said check. But if the amount-of the debt is known to the parties, or in other words, if the amount had been agreed on and the check did not cover that amount the debt would be discharged pro rata only, and the creditor may retain the check and sue for balance due.

DAYTONA BEACH BETHUNE-COOKMAN COI LEGE SITE; DEPLORE STORY OF "BRIDGE PASSES" RACIAL RELATIONSHIP AND OP- PORTUNITIES HIGH ORDER. MRS. BETHUNE'S NAME LEADS ALL THE REST IN COMMUNITY LIFE EDITOR'S NOTE: There is no place in American that has been discussed as much in the last year as Florida. Tales from there have read like chapters from the Arabians Nights. Pence deLeon, who discovered the "Fountain of Youth," at St. Augustine, was merely a circumstance, compared with the Mountains of Wealth, made and lost in Florida in recent months. People outside of Florida have been amazed and bewildered, skeptical, and wishful, concerning the state touched by magic powers. Strangely enough, most of the general information has concerned whites. Negroes have not taken advantage, in the state of Florida's "Billion Dollar" advertising, nor have the people in other states really understood the racial part in the big advance. The Associated Negro Press has looked into the subject through a Staff representative on the ground, and his findings will be told to Colored America. This information will be interesting and potential. (Staff Correspondence by the Associated New Press) Daytona Beach, Fla., May 3—Florida is a land of Golden Achievement and Golden Opportunities, for Colored America no less than white America. Negro people North do not know Florida as it is. Unfortunately, despite thrive preseminently on sensations, and hence much that should be known in unquestioned facts of inspirational value, never reaches the general public. Negroes of Florida have not been left out of the tremendous development of recent years. Many of them made fortunes, reputed all the way from a few thousands to millions. One man in Miami, is said to have cleaned up six millions. Jacksonville, the "Gateway to Florida" has a remarkable number of individual successes, magnificent homes, business enterprises and so on. No less is true, in proportion, of St. Augustine, Daytona Beach, Orlando, Palm Beach, Miami, Petersburg, Tampa, Palatka, and Key West. Negroes of the North are uninformed of the attainments in these centers, and in small ones; nor are they mindful of the relationship between the races—the better elements of both. ```markdown ``` L.G.ROBINSON -President- LORENCE BOWSON Sr.tty d'Englewood For example, a story was broadcast recently from Daytona Beach, concerning a requirement for "passes" at night to cross the bridges to the peninsula. That story went over the country like "wildfire." And many people over the country, including this writer, wondered whether Colorel people could be permitted to be on the streets at night, to say nothing of crossing the bridges.

BESSIE COLEMAN MAKES SUPREME SACRIFICE FOR PROMOTION OF SCIENCE OF AVIATION Bessie Coleman, well-known aviatrix has made the supreme sacrifice by giving her life for the promotion of the science of controlling the air. Many noted flyers have gone on before her and many will go in the days to come before the treacherous air lanes and faulty constructed planes will be absolutely safe. However, a special tribute is due this daring young woman for her intrepid bravery and the sterling courage exhibited as she led the vanguard of her face in the conquering of the air. It can never be said that as a race that we have failed along any line of effort and the sacrifice of Bessie Coleman is the answer to the part the race has played in the field of aviation. Miss Coleman was well-known in this city and came near meeting her end on an attempted fight when 10,000 people awaited her coming. Her flight here was under the auspices of this publication and the Y. W. C. A. girls which is vividly remembered by all who turned out on the occasion. In her calling the expected has happened and science is yet unconquered, but received a valued contribution of fearless bravery to fathom its recesses. We all mourn her loss.

"In checking up this statement it was found that there are 4.8 acres of improved farm land in the United States per capita of the total population, and that while among the white farmers improved acreage represents an average of five acres for every white man, woman and child, the improved farm land operated by Negroes is only 2.7 acres per capita of the Negro population. This includes the land operated by owners, managers, an dtenants of all descriptions, aming whom are the "croppers" who have no control in the marketing of products raised by them. "There are 21 states in which the improved acreage per capita of the Negro population, based on the operations of Negro farmers, is less than one-half acre, while there are only two states out of the forty-eight where this condition obtains among the whites.

UNDERWOOD, Pastor ```markdown ``` IF YOU FAIL TO READ THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE YOU MA Y NEVER KNOW IT HAPPENED PLAIN FACTS BY: DR. RUTH TEMPLE NOTE: It does seem, just as one reader said, that we could spend many more week on this subject of "Clean Living" because of the great need for a real understanding of the subject in all of its varied aspects. Just yesterday I got another call from a new set of persons who wish me to give their club some time in lectures, to place before them the same truths that are conveyed through this column each week. To date I have over half a dozen clubs and organizations that are on my waiting list waiting for me to get the time to give to them a series of lectures on "Clean Living" and the allied subjects which have been treated in the "Eagle" during the past few weeks. But though this subject is important and though all people—men and women alike are interested—there are also other important subjects which must be treated. Therefore after this week we will have a complete change in the subject matter in our column. SUGGESTIONS WHICH MAKE To manage one's self, to exercise self-control, is the most difficult of all tasks which a human being can attempt. And yet it is only the man or woman who, through the grace of God has mastered his own spirit that is truly happy, for happiness cannot be known while we are slaves to anything or slavery to passion or lust is absolute misery. The following rules wisely followed will help both men and women to respect their own bodies and to refrain from defiling those of other's, and will do much toward producing manhood and womanhood and a sterling strength of character. 1. Keep the mind pure and clean. Read clean books, be clean plays, think wholesome, clean thoughts. 2. Eat plain, wholesome food, avoiding highly seasoned foods. Leave out of the diet spices, pepper, vinegar and other condiments. Use only a moderate amount of salt. Eat the last meal at 3:00 P. M. rather than at night. 3. Keep the bowels regular. Have at least one free passage a day. 4. Take plenty of out-door exercise, either in the form of work or play. Spend as much time as possible out of doors in hikes, walks, swimming and other healthful and natural recreations. Indoor dissipations, late flours, dances in over-heated, stuffy rooms all tend to demoralize; contact with nature in God's fine open air makes us cleaner and stronger gives us higher ideals. 5. Seek the company of pure-minded companions. This is very important. For you cannot associate with persons without to some extent becoming like them. 6. Take all the sleep needed. Retire early, but get up immediately on soaking in water. Do not steal feather bed or anything soft that will produce a wakening perspiration. Have the outer air circulate thought the sleeping room. 7. Batte daily with warm water to keep clean, and follow such a bath with a quick, cold bath and a vigorous rubdown. A daily shower or plunge quickly taken and followed by a rubdown to insure proper reaction may be used with profit, provided you are robust and that this does not tax your vitality. The foreskins of the sexual organ of the male should be in such condition that the boy can draw it back when bathing and wash it clean. This will prevent the accumulation of an initiator by substance called amnesia. If the condition of the organ prevents its being thus kept clean, the boy, upon the advice of a reputable physician, may be circumcised. 8. Now that we have treated these subjects so fully I feel sure that many things hercetore obscure to your minds have been met and answered. For the questions which remain—be sure to avoid the quack. Our race of boys and girls and men and women do not need to resort to a “quack doctor” for help. There are almost two dozen splendid colored men, physicians who are full able to take care of the needs of the men and there are two of us women physicians who stand ready at all times to give command, advice and medical care and attention to women. And to girls especially I wish to say a clean, honest physician is your friend. You can trust her or him with your secrets and rely upon them to do the very best that is in their power to help you. A real physician will keep your secrets absolutely sacred as long as life lasts. Do not let fear or timidity keep you from seeking medical help and guidance when you need it. In closing I will say to boys and girls if they are anything about yourself which you do not understand go at once to a good physicians and if it is serious he or she will help you remedy it and if not then your mind will be relieved. Finally—do not worry about your body, your glands or anything else. If your physicians says you are alright then just forget your body entirely. live a clean, healthy, normal life and nature will take excellent care of you. Continue to address all communications to Dr. Ruth J. Temple, 3556 S. Western Ave., Phones, EMPIRE 9981 or UNIVERSITY 1255. All women will wish to keep the entire series of lectures which is to follow, therefore I advise you to subscribe for the 'Eagle' if you are not already a regular subscriber. To the Memory of the Late Jas. H. Crawford CUT- THE LATE JAS. H. CRAWFORD Mrs. James H. Crawford, 1085 So Mariposa Ave., the devoted wife of the late James H. Crawford, who has recovered from a long seige of illness incident to the constant nursing and the death of her husband wishes at this time to thank the many friends for their heart-felt and sincere sympathy and kindness throughout the month of January, when the who died on the 30th day of January of this year and who was buried on the third day of the following month of February. Mr. Crawford was a pioneer citizen of this community having lived here since the year of 1903. He was born in Mobile, Ala., on the 1st of February, 1870 only three days from his 55th birthday. He was in every way a highly respected citizen, was prominent in church, fraternity and civic welfare, was loved by all who knew him. For more than a decade he was a faithful employee of the city and as will be remembered all joined in giving to him the highest honors when the last sad rites were held from the A. M. E. Zion Church. To the illness of Mrs. Crawford there was an error on the card of thanks which were sent out unsigned afted after the funeral and Mrs. Crawford desires us to call attention to the same in this article, and asks the friends to do her the kindness to accept the same on behalf of herself and her son.

Mother Almost Murders Mother Almost Murders (Bry, the Associated Negro Press) New Orleans, May 8—Defying the police with the statement, "there ain't no murder here; this is just a private family fuss," Rosalie Lequey narrowly escaped riding in state in the covered wagon down Canal street after an argument with her son, who it is said entered the house with a shovel to clean things up, but failed in the attempt after his husky mother demonstrated physically. A riot call had been turned in and a squadron of police and an ambulance blocked traffic in the vicinity of 2819 Upperline street. Rosalie is fifty-six years old and despite her advancing years, is boss of her own home. The Fiddler Now Names The Tune Instead of The Man Who Pays By: ANDRAE NORDSKOG Chaikin Board of Governors People's Telephone Commission DO NOT PAY TELEPHONE COMPANY When your telephone bill becomes delinquent and your metered service is so expensive that you cannot pay your bill on time and the telephone company cuts off your service for non-payment, do not pay your money to the company if it demands any more than one dollar for reconnect charge. PAY MONEY TO RAILROAD COMMISSION A subscriber told me last week that his metered bill was $33.00 for his telephone. He was away from the city and the telephone company cut off his incoming service for nonpayment of his bill. The telephone company demanded $33.00 for service, plus $1.00 for reconnect charge and also demanded $35.00 as a deposit to re-establish his credit. I telephoned the railroad commission and they said the company was not authorized to make such demands. The telephone company's manager insisted that he was in the right. I advised the subscriber to send a check for the amount of his bill, $33.00 plus $1.00 reconnect charge, to the Railroad Commission and they would compel the telephone company to give him service. ONLY HALF SERVICE GIVEN The subscriber above mentioned was to get central and get outgoing service but his incoming calls were cut off. This is the trick: The company forces the subscriber to pay his bill by cutting off the incoming calls. When a patron calls this number, he is told that the line is temporarily disconnected. This is not pleasant for the subscriber who is delinquent and Son it destroys his business, for his patrons will feel in many cases that if he is not prosperous enough to even pay his telephone bill that they had better trade elsewhere. Another thing is that if they cannot get that party after several attempts, they will naturally go elsewhere. In this way it does actually destroy the man's business. PAY FOR FULL SERVICE The reason that the company permits the subscriber to continue the outgoing service is that each time a call goes out, the meter up in the telephone company's office registers. For this the company gets about seven and a half cents for the first block of calls. Now mind you, the subscriber can receive the benefit of the incoming service at all during the time of the temporary disconnect, which in some cases is several days.

By: WILLIAM MELLS WATSON 228-B N. Bonnie Bue St., DR. 9019 With more interest and enthusiasm than ever has been displayed in any local tournament, last Sabbath morning on Jefferson High School courts the Alpha Tennis Club opened the first Round Robin Championship Tournament with twenty-four entries, seven perfectly beautiful young ladies flanked by seventeen of the toughest looking, curious-minded and champion-aspiring male beings ever herded into a local corral. The two pretty silver championship cups donated by Dr. Robert L. Williams and Brooks Bros. Pharmacy were sp stubbornly contested for that only three rounds were completed of each event, leaving three for women and thirteen for men to be completed next Sunday, which will require less time as three courts will be used instead of two. The outstanding performer of the tourney is charming Miss Corinne Lee of the West Side Ladies Tennis Club and winner of the Thanksgiving Day tourney at Pasadena, who mowed down her opponents one by one, losing but three games in twenty played. Pretty little Verne Stratten followed wifining nine of the twelve games. However the five other little darlings may tell a different story when the other three rounds are finished. Pacific Coast Champion of singles, doubles and mixed doubles, James Stocks. of the Crown City Athletic and Tennis Club of Passadena didn't have the walkaway expected by many. Wendell Phillips, Gladden, former Coast champ, and a brand new young scout, tall, rangy and good-looking by the label of Vernon Pulcher, ran neck and neck with Stocks in three stanzas, nine wins and triplet of losses. Series: Mrs. Estia Henderson, Bortha Brown, Thelma Overton, Verna Stratten, Oelthia Smith, Robbie Broyles and Corinne Lee, William Dunn, Eddie Harris, Jimmie Lester, Robert L.

World War Is there any Veteran of the World War so poor in spirit and patriotism that he is not proud of the part he played in the greatest of all military struggles since history began. Have not we veterans a justified pride in our service? If any man were to assert that we had not played our part as men and Americans, how quickly would we resent it. The American Legion offers the best opportunity for you. Comrade, to testify to the world of your loyalty and service during the War. The lappel button of the Legion is a notice all that you failed to when your country called, and that you still subscribe to the patriotism and Americanism for which the Legion stands. Without the Legion button, the service man has no method of offering himself from the thousands who did not go. He may have served but no one knows it. And the world finds it easy and convenient to forget. WILLS MAY RETIRE (By: the Associated Negro Press) New York, May 3—Several daily papers of this city and news services have cared stories reporting that Harry Wills is to retire from the ring if his present hopes of consumiting a match with Heavyweight Champion, Jack Dempsey fall through. With the Legion button, you quietly, but effectively identify yourself as one of America's veterans, and as an active participant in the work of a patriotic society which is dedicated to the preservation of American principles. You must place yourself as both a wartime and peacetime, patriot and true American. Be proud you CAN join the American Legion. Hundreds of thousands of young men would rejoice indeed if their lives could be made over that the Legion might be open to them. Page-Eight W. M. SH CHM. OF BUILDIN EUREKA AU DAYTONA BEACH (Continued from Page Five) Negroes regarded as justifiable on several occasions, the so-called "curtec act" was suggested as a way out. Leading Colored people of Daytona did not like the suggestion, and they were proceeding to very properly take up the matter with the municipal authorities, white, who have undoubted respect for the best Colored people. The whole matter might have been adjusted without notoriety, but it was not, and that is regarded by Floridians as rather fortunate, because it leaves an actual wrong impression of true conditions. In company with Mrs. Mary McLeod Betnue, and others, the Associated Negro Press representative drove over to the beach side after ten P. M. on more than one occasion, toll was paid to white attendants, and no questions asked: on the contrary, the attendants were considerably more courteous than some who have been seen in northern communities. Many others are known to go and come at will without the least difficulty. Whites, as well as Negroes, are deploring the notoriety given to Davtona Beach by this story. BETHUNE-COOKMAN MRS. BETHUNE, CENTER OF ATTAINMENT It may safely be said that nothing has given more genuine fame to Daytona Beach than Bethune-Cookin College, and its remarkable founder, Mrs. Mary McLeed Bethune. Mrs. Bethune is a tremendous force and inspiration in the national life of Colored America; one must be very intensely admiration the community at large without regard to classes, has for both the institution and Mrs. Bethune. Mrs. Bethune's appearance not only in her school, but in any general public gathering, is a signal not only for applause, but the loftiest esteem. In attending a service at Mt. Zion A. M. E. Church, Sunday night, she was escorted to a prominent seat by ushers with genuine community pride, and referred to by Rev. Dr. H. Y. Tooke, the minister, at the close of his sermon, before a congregation that filled the beautiful new building to capacity, as "The greatest woman in the world, because she has performed a miracle, made something of nothing." He had in mind the fact that Mrs. Bethune began her face at Dana tona almost, like a goo with a delusion, half and half, and the property, now i the heart of the city, is valued at almost $1,000,000, forty acres of it with substantial brick buildings, and is becoming more valuable every mite with the rise of values in the state. Mrs. Bethune says modestly: "We are just at the beginning of our ideals." It is a matter of genuine interest to those studying conditions and educational advancement to note the interest of the white public of Daytona Beach in the development of Bethune-Cookman Coolage. At the public services in the auditorium on Sunday there are seldom fewer than 100 of the leading whites of the community, and in the winter season, even standing room is at a premium. These people not only listen to the fine inspirational singing, joining in it; they to the addresses with unfigured interest; but they take a personal, active part, as local officials, in the work of the school. It is a condition that exists in no other school heretofore visited by the correspondent of The Associated Negro Press. There are three Colored members on the Daytona Beach Chamber of Commerce: Mrs. Bethune, Dr. J. Seth Hills, superintendent of McLeod Hospital, and Sheldon S. Richardson, a structural contractor. The first Annual Community dinner of the school was attended by a splendid group of the people of the community.

MATT SOLOMON LILY WHITE SECTION The purported plan of the Realty Board to devise some means to segregate the Negroes of Pasadena, or in other words put them in a certain locality, has again shown its fangs above the muck and mire of prejudice. Some time this thing has been brewing, in the meantime getting as many residents of a certain locality to sign up not to sell to one of our group, but heretofore there has always been a black sheep in the family who gets hare up for money and is glad to sell to any old color. We opine, however, that the Realty Board will find this class of property owner to always be a bee in their collars. Information comes to us that the district in and around East of Lake and North of Colorado has all been signed up to let no more blanks in, other than the property in that district. The degree of Pasadena should not be alarmed at this any more for the same condition confronts them elsewhere. Just sit in the middle and don't talk too much. Whatever attempt is made at such an undertaking would be rather expensive for the Realty Board as only a few of them really represent any great monetary investment. It only a quarter of them make up the [Portrait of a man with a mustache and a suit, set against an ornate decorative frame.

More Friendship In Schools, Says Hope (By The Associated Negro Press) Tuskegee Inst., Ala., May 12.—That the schools are gettin' back to the friendly basis upon which they rested in the "seventies" is the opinion of Dr. John Hope, president of Morehouse College, Atlanta, Ga., expressed in an address here Thursday in the Institute Chapel. Emphasizing the ideals of the early Founders of our schools, he stated, "Men thought of education for power; they made it possible for the rank and file to get an education for fear they would lose their power." BELLBOYS STRIKE Philadelphia, Pa., May 12—Fifteen colored bellboys and elevator operators at the Walton Hotel "struck" Wednesday night and walked out of the hotel shortly after six o'clock, in protest against their dismissal May 17, when it was planned to replace them with white boys. The change was made by BK. Johnson, who replaced Eugene Miller, a month ago as manager. The white boys, engaged to come to work on the first of the month, were hastily summoned and went on duty several hours after the strike. General Samuel C. Armstrong was cited as a man who had the vision to put 4,000,000 people to work and who felt that no education was worthwhile that does not help to produce truthful and accurate thinking. Though many of these schools are now controlled and managed by colored leaders that have emerged from them, the ideals of the early founders persist. The coming of African educators and those from other countries who are heading outward America to observe and study the methods of our vocational training is more than an Roosevelt Said: Mr. Dave Bostick is reported as being much better since his operation at the Pasadena Hospital, which was under the supervision of Dr. J. T. Whittaker. 00- It is with much regret that we learn of the bonds carrying which necessitate the removal of the recently remodeled and up-to-date First A. M. E. Church which marks only another step in the progress of Pasadena, together with a little political trickery, which is not at all surprising to the better thinking people; at that, this matter should not be of such grave concern as some would think, but because of the improvement made on that corner, greatly enhanced its value and no doubt will reap the benefit of their labors. 00- Mr. Wm.
