COMMENTS
At the funeral of the late Socialist Congressman, Meyer London, of the East Side, New York, it was estimated that fifty thousand or more persons of all races and creeds filled the hearse. The former congressman was a Jew by race, but a paradox and agnostic in his belief. He had served as congressman from that New York district for a number of years, but when he fought against the entrance of the United States in the World War he was defeated for re-election because of his pacifism but when war was declared there was no more loyal and enthusiastic supporter than Meyer London. He was a patriot: The crowd that followed his remains was a mute testimonial to his wide humanitarianism. Verily it could be said of that Jew agnostic, that he went about doing good. Race, creed nor previous condition blinded him not from doing his full duty to mankind.

Chicago witnessed a splendid example of thorough education when the Roman Catholic Church celebrated the twenty-eighth International Eucharistic Congress. It showed the ramifications of that great Religious faith. From every clime, the veritable ends of the earth, came representatives of the church. The power, secular as well as religious, which is exerted over followers of the Papal Standard, was seen in the reverence to which they bowed to constituted authority and the firm faith held by them in the solid foundation of their belief. Their undivided allegiance to the temporal and spiritual authority of the Titular head was seen in the reverence given the Papal legate.
The N. A. A. C. P., an association founded for the advancement of the Colored people, held its annual meeting in Chicago. Leading Negroes from throughout the United States with numbers of forward thinking white men and women who believe in equal justice discussed the problems of citizenship. Among the number who were programmed to address the convention was Mrs. Beatrice Canady, Editor of the Portland Advocate. Mrs. Canady was not able to deliver the address in person, but it was read and many were the favorable comments expressed. Many of the thoughts brought forward in her address became the subject of debate and many of her suggestions were listed for further investigation.
The Spinparn Medal, given yearly to the American Negro who has in the knowledge of the Medal Committee, contributed most to the forward movement of the Race, was awarded to Carter Woodson, Negro historian, whose research in the past ten years has ben a splendid contribution to the history of the Race. It is fitting that some expression of a grateful nature should be made to those who burn the mid-night oil for our enlightenment and pleasure. Too often the work of those who unselfishly work for our advancement is ignored. In the future, when some young students want to retribute a programy assertion to the Negro in America he has but to turn to one of the many volumes of Woodson's History and find therein authentic data for his or her contention. When we begin to honor our men and women of Letters we are just one rung higher in the ladder of culture; without which no civilization succeeds, no people progress.

The California political pot has commenced to brew, not yet got to the boiling point. The prospects of Lieutenant. Govenor. Young, candidate for the post of Governor, seems bright. So bright indeed, that his admirers are offering odds of ten to eight that he sweeps the field. The present incumbent, though somewhat widely acknowledged, his interim face the political barrier for another race, is not allowing any grass to grow under his feet, even if that grass is not watered by the fluid from the prospective Boulder Dam.
00
That is going to be one of the main issues of this election, the Boulder Dam project, it is of vital importance to the Southern end of California. One of the contenders who cannot be entirely overlooked in this gubernatorial handicap is R. F. McClellan, chairman of the Board of Supervisors, Los Angeles County, under the management of the former Governor of Alaska, Scott C. Bone, the campaign of McClellan is making strides, and will be watching. (Continued on Page Six)

LANDRETH LAUNCHES DIRECT CAMPAIGN FOR CONGRESS Pasadena Attorney Avoids Cut-And-Dried Conference And Goes Straight To Voters For Support In Candidacy In Ninth District

HAROLD B. LANDRETH
Friends if Harold B. Landreth of Passaidena all over the Ninth Congressional district were given a decided thrill of interest the week, when that young Passaidena attorney threw down a gauntlet to organized politics and declared that he would take his fight direct to the people in order to bring about his nomination and election as representative in Congress.
Landreth announced to this newspaper yesterday that he would have no part in any campaign that violates the spirit of the direct primary law. A conference, held recently by leaders of the old school in the Republican Party, put through a candidate for Congress by what was termed "machine politics" by many of the supporters of Landreth. The invitation sent to Landreth to participate in this conference was declined, the Pasadena man stating that while he had no personal quarrel with anyone who wanted to participate in the conference, he (Landreth) preferred to take his campaign to the people as provided by the direct primary law. He is making that kind of a fight, going direct to the voters, and the editor of this paper was told by Landreth yesterday that he will appear in this part of the district as soon as a suitable meeting is arranged.
Harold Landreth is travelling in excellent company in his campaign. Dr. John Willis Baer, former president of Occidental College, who is now a Pasadena bank president, is a member of his committee, and will make a speaking campaign for him. Dr. Baer, it will be remembered by many, was the most prominent Pacific Coast educator to welcome Dr. Booker T. Washington on one of the great leader's trips to California. Dr. Baer entertained Dr. Washington at the Baer residence in Pasadena, and afterwards aided him in his mission. It is expected that Dr. Baer will appear and speak to audiences of Negro voters in the interests of Landreth.
Landreth is 36 years old, married,
and with one child. He is a graduate

of Pasadena High School, Ocodiential College and Sanford University School of Law. During the war he achieved a fine record as captain of infantry, and returned to afterwards become commander of the American Legion in Pasadena. He resigned the presidency of the Pasadena Chamber of Commerce to announce his candidacy for Congress.
As a forward-looking, staunch Republican, Landreth has served as Republican County Central Committeeman, and as secretary of Republican organizations in Pasadena. Dr. Baer says that he is courageous, able and worthy of any public trust. Dr. Robert Freeman, famous pastor of the Pasadena Presbyterian Church says that we need men in Congress of the fine type of Landreth, men who are in touch with the spirit of this era, and who have moral, spiritual and mental fitness for the office. Landreth has a strong following in every city and community in the district.
It will be well for the readers of this newspaper to watch the campaign of this militant, fearless Republican. Leaders in the Negro group have concerned him, sounded him out and informed him fairly, liberal and conscientious—in fact, showing every sign of being excellent congressional material. We, among-us, who are tired of promises and lip-service feel that here is a man* of independent character who says what he means and means what he says. Landreth's headquarters are at 711 Pacific Southwest Building, Pasadena, and representatives are established in all parts of the district.

ONE COMMON CAUSE FOR DEAD
BABIES
There are many, many different reasons for the birth of little dead babies. Some of these reasons may be attributed to the health of the father, some to the health of the mother, while the child is in utero. Among the latter may be mentioned severe shocks, frights, accidents, etc., as very infrequent rause of the birth of dead babies. But the great outstanding londition which causes more dead babies and more premature deliveries and miscarriages than any other factor known to mankind is that treacherous disease SYPHILIS. The germ of Syphilis enters the body of the father or the mother often when they are very young, and it may lie quiescent, or dormant, for several months after marriage, when the little baby has begun its journey to this world the old syphilitic germs which seemed to be dead will take on new life and attack the developing body within the mother's womb or uterus and will either deform or slay the little one.
A great number of the infants who are born into the world with club feet, club hands and deformed faces and bodies are due to syphilis. And thousands and thousands of babies every year are born prematurely dead or dead at terin, or die a few moments or hours after they are born because the parents had syphilis.
HOW CAN YOU TELL WHETHER
YOU HAVE SYPHILIS
Any mother who has had a miscarriage, without an apparent cause, or who has had a full term and apparently perfect baby to die soon after it was born, should have a blood test. Not only should the mother have a blood; test but so should the father. They should both go to a good physician and receive a thorough and careful examination of their blood and their whole physical body for evidences of disease and they may thus be spared the painful experience of having many little dead babies.
BABIES LIVES MAY BE SAVED
I had one case of a Mexican woman. She had had one dead baby. She was advised to take treatments when she became pregnant with her second baby. She did. The child was born healthy and strong and remained so. She became pregnant a third time. Again she was urged to take treatments. She thought treatments would be too much trouble and so she refused to bother with them. Her third baby was born dead at the time. She never forgot her because her husband almost beat her to death after the birth of the child because she had not taken treatments and the baby had died.
I had another Mexican patient who had had fifteen—babies all born dead or dying just a short time after birth. Her last baby was a very fine 9 pound boy with a beautifully formed body—it just opened its little mouth, took one gasp and then stopped breathing and no power on earth could restore the breath to its perfect little body. The mother had been, urged and urged to take treatments, but she had failed to do so.
One other very striking case comes to my mind. A fine intelligent woman had had 17 babies; one, the first born, was living and well. The other sixteen had all died at birth or shortly after or else were last as miscarriages during the 3rd to 6th month, except one little one who lived to be 18 months old but was not normal, could not walk nor talk and was very delicate in every way. This mother was urged and urged to take treatments, she had promised but always failed to do so. Well, after the 17th baby was born, a full term and perfectly beautiful baby which lived only a few second—she was so heartbroken that she finally decided to lie to her doctor. She had a blood test and began taking treatments. She was pregnant again. She continued her treatments throughout her pregnancy, and today she has one of the finest, sweetest baby girls in the city of Los Angeles. After losing 16 babies, she had a few months' treatment and has a baby which appears to be perfectly normal and healthy.
As I stated before, there are other causes for dead babies than syphilis. Babies can die at birth or be born dead when neither mother nor father has any blood diseases. But this is not the rule.
You can see from these facts that one of the great reasons for going to a doctor early is to insure the life and health of your baby. Any expectant mother is taking a terrible risk when she neglects to put herself under the care of a good doctor during early pregnancy. For not only syphilis but other abnormal conditions which endanger the life of mother or child it may be perceived or mistaken if pregnant mother is
Group Of College Men Enter Insurance Field
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Ill., June 20—A step that bids fair to mark a new era in Life Insurance salesmanship was recently taken by the Liberty Life Insurance Company of Illinois. This Company in conformance with its policy of keeping abreast of the times, launched a movement last winter to interest college men in life insurance salesmanship as a profession. A visit was made by Dr. M. C. Bousfield and W. Louis Davis several months ago and the possibility of this field were laid before the senior classes in these schools. It was made plain to them that life insurance carried with it not only lucrative remuneration over a large number of years, but also that the element of service to mankind was involved to a greater degree than in almost any other field of endeavor.
This view was heartily endorsed by the Presidents of the schools visited and as a result of this a group of fifteen young men, graduates of Howard Lincoln, New York University, Atlanta, Morehouse, Wilberforce, Alcorn, and Tuskegee will come to the company on June 20th, bringing with them excellent academic training, lofty aspirations and high ideals to contribute to their future profession.
In order to further prepare these men for their life work, the Company will conduct at its Home Office from June 20th, to August 8th, a thorough course in insurance salesmanship. L. F. Simpkins, Educational Director, who recently completed the course of Insurance at New York University, will conduct this school of insurance assisted by the secretary, W. Ellis Stewart, and Irving Armstrong. The course will be open to all beginning salesmen.
The great problem confronting Negro companies heretofore has been that of interesting young college men and women in the field work of life insurance, although the largest white companies are yearly attracting large numbers' of college graduates to their field forces. Now that a stepp has been taken in the right direction, it is expected that each year more college men will follow those beginners into a lucrative field that has long been neglected.

Now as the first of July has arrived according to all advance notices, the stage is all set for a gruelling contest for place for various offices in County and State. For U. S.

All of whom have opened headquarters in the northern and southern sections of the State and are actively engaged in campaigning, with the exception of the present Senator who is detained at Washington until the adjournment of Congress.
For Governor the present incumbent, Governor Friend W. Rieharlson, is opposed for renomination by Lieutenant Governor C. C. Young. Hon. Rex Goodcell and a Mr. Mitchell, late entry from Fresno, all of whom like the aspirants for Senators have opened headquarters and are actively engaged in the campaign.

The contest for Sheriff promises to be a real and genuine fight, and it will take the counting of the ballot on August 31st to find out just who will run it out at the general election.
00—
We have been faithfully looking for the arival from the north of J. H. Taylor, Wm. McLamore and A. P. Alberga to tell us what it's all about.
JUDGE ALBERT LEE STEPH
ENS THE PEOPLE'S
CANDIDATE
Judge Albert Lee Stephens, who is a candidate for re-election to the Superior Court bench, has received the endorsement of the "Colored Non-Partisan League". Judge Stephens campaign committee is endeavoring to secure his election at the August primaries. At the last election when Judge Stephens was candidate, he sent the ticket with three thousand votes than his nearest competitor. It is the hope of his nearest committee that; the judge appreciate his qualifications for the bench as shown by years of service as a judge. Prior to that, Judge Stephens served twice as city attorney.
The Colored Non-Partisan League sent the following letter to Judge Shenhe:
FRIDAY, JULY 2, 1926.
"It is a pleasure for me to be able to advise you that the officers, and Executive Committee of the Colored Non-Partisan League, at its regular meeting, officially endorsed your candidacy for election to the Superior Council as the record you have established in the service of this county speaks for itself.
"The citizenry of this county is indeed fortunate to have one of your ability and keen sense of solving the many perplexing problems which constantly confront you and dispensing even-handed justice to all.
"We will endeavor to have every member of our League made cognizant of the foregoing of the Board of Directors."
(Signed): W. H. SANDERS, Advisor.
Responding to Mr. Sanders' letter, Judge Stephens sent the following letter:
"I desire to say to the Colored Non-Partisan League and each member thereof, through you, that I am delighted with your letter of June 21st, in which you inform me that the League has endorsed me for re-election as a Judge of the Superior Court in this County. I hope I approximately deserve the praise that your letter accords me, though, I am sure, it is somewhat beyond the degree I deserve.
"The position of Judge of the Superior Court is a most important one and it comes very near the people as a whole. The position carries with it great power which can be used for good and can be abused. I consider it a great trust and am ever suggesting to myself that it is but a trust and not a power that belongs in any sense to me personally and that I have no right whatever to use it to my own advantage or in any personal way."
LANDRETH ANNOUNCES
CAMPAIGN NATIONAL
CAMPAIGN PLATFORM.
Harold B. Landreth, Republican candidate for Congress in the Ninth District, stands unequivocally for the following:
Boulder Canyon dam in the Colorado River and the All-American Canal for the Imperial Valley. The construction of this great water conservation, flood control and power project is termed by Landreth "The epic of the Southwest."
3. Rigid enforcement of all laws, with special emphasis upon the eighteenth amendment and the Volstead Act.
3. Enlisting of the fullest federal co-operation for the development of the Long Beach-Los Angeles harbor, that it may become the greatest port of the Pacific Coast.
4. Maintenance of an adequate protective tariff on all California products of agriculture and industry.
5. A comprehensive program of mountain development, including the building of highways and trails, water conservation, reforestation, fire prevention and flood control.
Mr. Landreth is taking his campaign directly to the voters at the August primaries without submission of his candidacy to a pre-primary committee. He believes that such conferences deprive the leaders of their full privileges of selection and violate the spirit of the direct primary law.

Surely every member of our race is proud of the wonderful company—The Golden State.
According to official statements from the President, Mr. Wm. Nickerson, Jr., the Company has increased its membership by more than ten times the number of applicants on file last year this time. It has established an unusual record for the prompt payment of claims. It is already giving employment to forty persons and is now looking for more agents to employ. As the company grows it will lend you more money on your Real Estate.

Makes Own Coffin
(By the Associated Negre Press)
Chester, Pa., June 30—James Poole, a carpenter, wants comfort when he dies. And so, all thing considered, including the lack of o taste that might be displayed by friends after his demise, James Poole has built his own cabinet. James is also large man and it took a lot of lumbar in the making of his coffin, but satisfaction has fully compensated him for the outlay. "It's made of the finest wood and in that most improved style, with a choice vermeering." Mr. Poole con- dided to a friend.

THE HOPELESS CONDITION OF
THE INCORRIGIBLY WICKED
"And they said, 'There is no hope:
but we will walk after our own
devices, and we will everyone do
the imaginations of his evil heart.'" Jer.
18:12.
Israel had reached a dangerous, a terrible condition of life. They had added sin to sin till the nation's heart had thoroughly and completely alienated itself from God. When people reach such a condition they will not allow themselves to be called back to God. They hate their prophets. They deride them. They stone them. They abuse them. They call them fanatics. They denounce them as ignorant, unpatriotic, calamity howlers and whatnot. Taking the bit between their teeth, they say to the pious, "Take your God away from before us. We want none of Him. We can do without Him. That kind of religion is old fashioned. Give us something new, something up-to-date."
SOMETHING TO CONSIDER
And what do they want with something new? There are no new laws to govern the heavenly bodies. There are no new laws of physics. Water does not change its taste nor its power. All nature exists and fruits under the same laws that govern it in prehistoric times. Water still runs down hill. The air still spreads on all sides. The seasons still come and go on schedule time with such irregularities as the position of the heavenly bodies produce.
Why then should well established, well proven and perfectly reasonable moral and religious laws change? We cast off old garments and wash soiled ones, but we still wear clothes. Styles chage, but the changes are slight and never revolutionary.
The clothing of the soul is God, but wicked men would cast him off. Man would change the glory of the incorruptible God into the image of corruptible beasts and creeping things, or at least into the figments of a corrupted imagination.
You hear men say that man has made His gods. They who so say are usually such as wish to go into the God-making business. They don't like the God of revelation, the true and living God. They, would like to make one who suits them better, one not so holy, not so fearful in praises, not so terrible in judgment, not so exacting in righteousness.
SET AND DETERMINED
"There is no hope." You can't do anything with us. We don't believe you. We don't want to believe you. we are not going to change. Our way is set. And such men know that death and doom are the end of their way. They know hell is their portion. They profess not to believe there is a hell, yet they constantly name the place and constantly invite or send one another there. There is no hope. Doomed, lost, undone, hopeless. Hypocrites themselves, liars and unbelievers, they keep busy calling those who fear God these things.
"Our own devices." We will walk after our own devices. We will plot and plan our own ways. We will invent our own philosophies. We will construct our own theories. Don't talk to us about religion and God and righteousness and holiness. Don't preach repentance and prayer and heaven to us. What do we care for eternal life and future glory? Do not time and chance happen to all men?
```markdown
```
And what are church going, prayer and pasalm-singing ones, but, hypo-
rites? Our own devices. We are
going to follow them. You can't keep
us from it. Let it lead us to hell. Let
it lead our children to hell. To hell
will we, but we will walk after our
own devices and we will do the im-
agination of our evil heart.
Let it curse the ground, withhold
the rain, fill the land with blood; let
it bring on war and pestilence. We
will follow our own imagination, the
imagination of our wicked heart.

And so men hasten their own doom, destroy their own souls and dash the cup of hope away from their own lips and those of their children.
And often they seem to prosper Psalm 73. There are no bands in their death. Their strength is firm and after death they continue to do evil by the evil influence of their incorrigible examples and the power of their evil names. They are often brilliant-minded geniuses and worshipped by smaller minded infidels. Yet holy writ saith their names shall rot. And so they shall. Don't imagine it will be otherwise.
O the wicked imagination untamed in repentance, diseased with selfishness and sin, how it deceives men? How like the men of Sodom! blinded by sin they rage at the doors of Lot they may get rid of him who judges in righteousness, and ravish haven-sent religion! How they seek

JESUS OUR HOPE
What avails the intercession of Christ, represented by Abraham? There is no hope. Perish they will. Stand back! they cry to Lot who represents the ministry of righteousness. We would ravish the Bible. We would violate, desecrate, dishonor both the old and New Testament, represented by the two angels. Stand back, you! You want to be a judge. Get out of the way. We are going to have our way.
But there is a way, that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof is the way of death. There is but one way of truth, one way of peace, one way of life, and that way is Jesus. His sheep will hear His voice. When He leadeth forth his own sheep he goeth before them. He giveth unto them eternal life and they shall never perish. Are you among that number? If you are just hold right on to Him. Be a man of prayer. You shall never perish. Amen.

Rev. W. H. M. Dickerson, Pastor
The Trinity Baptist Church, situated on 38th and Normandie is presenting a series of programs in July beginning on the Second Sunday. We are having a Men's Day on the Second Sunday; Young People's Day on the Third Sunday and on the following Sunday will be known as Women's Day. The committee on arrangement is sparing no little pains to present to the public high class programs which we believe will be wholesome, uplifting and inspiring. This is a tentative program for the Second Sunday.
Sunday morning the pastor will preach a special sermon. Remarks by Hon. F. M. Roberts, Assemblyman of the 74th District. Music in keeping with the occasion.
Sunday afternoon the Janitor Department of the Hall of Records will have charge of the service; Rev. L. B. Robinson will be the chief speaker. Solo by Capt. Wm. Reynolds. Instru-

Federated Club News
By:
MARY E. REED
The Second District Convention of the Federated Club met at the A. M. E. Zion Church last Thursday with the State Church, Mrs. Corine B. Hicks, presiding. All clubs made their reports which showed that much good work had been accomplished, but the financial budget for the National was sadly lacking. The $2000 quota for the Southern Section was not half reached. The public may look forward to helping many more efforts, for the quota must be reached. Beautiful art work was also on display, the delegate from the Woman's Self-Improvement Club of Santa Barbara bringing a suitcase filled with beautified items. Some of the clubs went over the top with their quota, some did the best they could, some could have done better, and some did nothing at all. Loyalty to the work and co-operation is looked for t. reach the mark aimed at.
The President's Council held its last meeting at the Christian Tavern. Much business of importance was transacted. $50 was donated to the National Fund and $5 to National Education. Nomination of State officers and nomination of State delegates.

WIVES AND SWEETHEARTS EN
TERTAINED
Friday evening, June 25th was a gala evening for the Golden Eagle Social Club, for it was on that evening they entertained in honor of their wives and sweethearts. I must say it was sure some evening and I am more than justified in saying that all present had a grand and glorious evening.
The residence of the President's mother was one of merriment and beauty, the rooms being draped in Cardinal and Gold the colors of the club and a huge Eagle hanging from the center. This was made more effective by colored lights being turned on as they danced to the melodious waltz music furnished by the orchestra.
The refreshments consisted of Punch Ice Cream and a cake that was made special for the occasion by the wife of the president.
It was noticed that the secretary, Mr. H. Bagnerise was all alone and the other members of the club are very anxious to know why? We wonder if she really DID!

CALLS FOR HARMONY
; MEET —
Los Angeles, California.
DEAR EDITOR:
One\cannot help but pay attention
to wha has been said of late about
the present political situation as it
affects our group.
Cannot we have a get-together po-
litical, harmony meeting in Eagle |
Hall on Monday, July 12th?
No matter what one's personal |
leaning may be, politically, we are all |
obliged to adopt, as a matter of ne- |
cessary self-protection, the sclogan of
the Nv A. A.C. P. in this regard, and
which is to the effect that the Race
must come first in choice of political
parties or candidates.
The great difficulty im Los Angeles
is that there is a woeful lack of par-
ty control and party. management.
‘he result is that our officers are
elected, not upon party platform but
und®r the theory of non-partisan elec-
tions which has been extended far be-
yond what was originally intended,
strong groups and combination of per-
sons with money, newspapers and or-
ganizations are able to so influence
the vote cast in primary or election
that ,the interest of the whole people
is.too e'ten submerged by strong
groups or factions who, from the be-
| kinning, were bent primarily upon
seeing their candidates or their meas-
ures carry because of what were ul-
timately, personal or private _inter-
ests,
‘here is but one method which we
can adopt, and that is to follow the
plans by which the election is _made
successful and strongly assert, in ev-
ery fair and honorable way, our
choice of ¢andidates and measures,
| ooking’ at‘all times. toward tie end
| that the’colored people of this county
and state wil get the same treatment
| from, candidates and the same consid-
eration in political measures that is
| stordea citizens of the state who are
ae our racial persuasion.
HOW CAN-THIS BE EFFECTED >
First, the most vital political prob-
lem that has ever effectei! the color-
ed citizens of California is presented
today under the cloak and behind. the
color of judicial sanction for “block
agreements,” which, are in fact, no-
thing more than an assertio noi the
mob spirit in that those who promote
them are generally determined to pre-
vent by either fair means or foul, the
ownership and occupancy of property
| solely because of race and color.
Since this matter is finaily letf to
the courts’ observations, things pre-
sent thomsél ves:
First, It is the political privilege of
the people to select judges by their
ballots and surely we can harmonize
every element and faction of our 75,-
000. voters in this county in one de-
termined effort, which we have the
Jawful right and the bouncen duty to
jassert, to place upon the bench as
judges, men who will take all _ the
facts into consideration and not de-
part from the well-known principles
of the common law for reason of any
fancied “invasion” of a white resi-
dential district because the rapidly
increasing population is demanding,
as it must do, more homes in which to
live, Problems of segregation, dis-
crimination and repression of rights
are demanding that, we make careful
choice in our selection of candidates
for judicial office and exercise a wise,
sane and patriotic ballot in this re-
Exh
}, Secondly, legislation must, in tifhe,
be had to ‘supplement the principles
of the common law now in force ip
‘this state, and this will, of course,
| mean an extension of our representa~
tion in the legislature, It will mean,
further the selection of a governor
-who will make the equal rights of all
citizens, regardless of race or color,
in real’and personal property a part
of his legislative program.
We are, therefore, confronted with
the following inquiries:
With the best interest of the group
in this city, county and state, why
should we not also have an Assembly-
man from the 73rd distfict since we
have more votes in that. district than
in the 74th? '
Whom should we support for gov-|
ero of this state? For U. S. Senat-
jor? and County Officers, ete.?
What candidates for: judicial sities
are of that quality of heart and mind
and temperament that the personal |
ligerty and property rights ‘of our
‘group will suffer no impairment in de- |
cisions which they mush necessarily:
be called upon to make, when once.
they are elected to the bench? |
We venture the opinion that out of
‘such a. meeting we can form a polit-
ical committee that can produce 25,-
000 votes solid, in the primary and
November elections. .We further ven-
ture the opinion that this vote will
determine the choice of candidates
and measures in many instances.
This will ‘mean, of course, that the
voter who has held himself’ (and her-
self) aloof from politics, feeling eith-
er that they were too busy, too suc-
cessful, or too timid to take part,
must make the personal sacrifice, and
every’ voter must be an active cam-
paigner in this crisis which now con- ;
fronts us in this city and state.

TRY ANOTHER TACT, BROTHER'S
We do not know who the New Age Dispatch is hitting at, with its front page scare head line, in which it sought to wreak vengeance upon somebody or proposition unnamed, and bemoaned the fate of the Negro taxi driver.
If the article in question was aimed to help the Colored taxi driver, it by far missed its mark. Nobody pays any attention to a whine, as a matter of fact they run away from him instead of coming to him. If the Colored taximan expects to do business, he can only succeed on his merit.
We would suggest that he put as much pep in his business as anybody else, furnishes a neat, clean and equipped cars as any other group, meet the same conditions and charge as any other taxi company, then herald it to the world that your proposition exists by just as liberal use of printers ink as it takes to tell the story. In such a situation it is then his turn to stand erect and command business which he will without question obtain.
Now as a matter of fact, outside of individuals, such as the Johnson Taxi Service, the public is unaware of the fact that Los Angeles maintains and operates a Taxi Service; individuals may know it but the great public is unaware of this fact, this condition is true because the said Negro Taxi Company fails to use printers ink.
It then is bad grace to cry, for be it known the Taxi Companies of other groups are out for business to the extent that they will both advertise and with all the courtesies at their command go after business.
No brother, the white man is on his way and to even keep in sight of the pace he is setting, you must be up and doing every minute the time, to such an extent, that there will be no time to cry and moan.

At a certain white bank in Chicago, Negroes are reputed to have on deposit over a million dollars. Not a colored person is employed there in the capacity of a clerk, stenographer, teller or any fairly decent job. Pondering this situation a few years ago, a large colored fraternal society, with considerable money on deposit in this bank, appointed a committee which waited upon and asked the vice-president of the bank to give employment to some colored person in a clerical capacity. The vice-president coldly replied, "We can't use a colored person here." He didn't say, "Our patrons won't stand for a colored person here," but assumed the responsibility, as it were, for the bank's management in excluding colored employees. The colored depositor thought the strong card to play would be to wave the economic wand, so shot back the question, "Suppose the colored people would withdraw for life?" Whereupon in frozen satire, the vice-president said, "Why don't you?"
We thought about this special situation as a man and his wife stood at the Douglass National Bank counter last Saturday and said to the teller, "We have just withdrawn $720 from such and such a bank down town and deposited the whole amount in the Douglass National Bank." As they stated what they had done, there was an accent of pride that they were using their savings to strengthen a great Negro institution and at the same time receiving gilt-edged protection.
What are you doing, gentle reader, to help erect great Negro institutions which in the near future will be veritable Gibraltars of business to protect your ambitious boy and girl. Pause and think about this; then go down to 3621 So. State street and open a savings account with the only National Bank owned and operated by colored people.
The above situation in Chicago very aptly applies in numerous other places and yet Sambo refused to wake up. We have here in this bailiwick sought to awaken interest along the line of a greater business contact with ourselves.
As exemplified in the above incident the white man as a matter of fact is trying to do his best to make Negroes wake up and build banks of their own. For didn't the vice-president on this occasion say, "Why don't you?" We want our readers to read and re-read the above clipping for in the same there lies abundant food for thought.

The "Donkey" is disconsolate: Off his feed and hangs his ears in utter discouragement. Vain hopes have been shattered completely by the flash from across the ocean stating with emphasis that the doughy leader of California democracy could not under any condition, allow the use of his name either as a candidate for the senatorial toga or governor. The hopes of the Democrat party in California were dampened considerably, if not blasted, by that refusal of their idol to help them out of their dilemma, because it goes without saying, "Jimmie" Phealan is one of the most popular Californians in public life, and that regardless of party.
Over in Alameda County the voters of Color have completed the formation of a voters league and so far have endorsed two Race men for office: Assemblyman and Freeholder. The Race vote of Alameda County is by no means a negligible one. It will have to be reckoned with in the final summing up. That is, if the objective is not an angling for the "long green." Having seen so many similar projects go a-glimmering and leaving a bad political taste as the aftermath, we will study and analyze the movement thoroughly before passing a final judgment.

Owing to the death of congressman Flashery, a vacancy exists in the representation of California. The 5th District, which the former Congressman Flashery represented, is known as the Working Man's District, and has been represented by a leader of labor fir years. There is any number of aspirants for the place made vacant by the death of Flashery, and the field seems to be constantly augmented. Supervisor Welch seems to have the call so far, but it is very hard to determine what may happen to change public opinion between now and the date of the primaries. The strike of the Carpenters may have a great result in the determination.

As real leaders our ministers proved that what touches one of their race, touches them. The sane warning was issued by the assembly, that in these trying times, no Negro should seek trouble, nor be encouraged in an attitude, which would ferment it needlessly. This is good advice, and should be heeded by the entire race.
However, the pledge to stand by the twelve families now in distress, with their last ounce of strength, is a welcome one, and disproves in a very concrete way, the assertion sometimes heard that our ministers as a whole take no interest in such things.

WM. L. TRAEGER FOR RE-ELECTION FOR SHERIFF
PETER H.
Wm. L. Traeger has authorized us to announce through these columns his candidacy to succeed himself as Sheriff for Los Angeles County. We appreciate most highly the fact that the Sheriff has always given due consideration to all groups and appeals to the consideration of our group through the medium of their own organ. From this feature of which the Sheriff himself would hardly mention, we are authorized to state that he stands squarely on his record in office of which full information will be given in a later issue. At this moment he is content to submit his candidacy to the consideration of all who may read the same.
FOR CONGRESS FROM THE 10th DISTRICT
HON. JOE CRAIL
We hereby submit the formal announcement of the Hon. Joe Crail who seeks to succeed Congressman J. S. Fredericks, the present incumbent congressman from the 10th District, who will not be a candidate to succeed himself.
Mr. Crail has legions of friends, gained from a long residence and contact in this bailiwick who are leaving no stone unturned to help him attain his ambition. They feel it a duty to come to assistance not, only because they appreciate his wirt and ability to serve, but more so from the fact that Mr. Crail has always been to the forefront in all civic movements worth while and is highly deserving of any position which he might seek.
His attitude in the past as always ready and willing to give to all people the consideration due them, stamps him as a man of the people.
We bespeak for him the earnest and thoughtful consideration o the voters of the 10th Congressional District.

A six and seven inning rally in the first game of the doubleheader at the White Sox Park last Sunday won for Lonnie's crew with Jay Johnson on the mound. The score was seven to four. The second game a seven-inning affair also went to the White Sox who seem to have the Indian sign on any club that Joe Pirrone can organize. The score in the second contest was also 7 to 4.
Bob Fagen brought his batting eye with him and connected for five safe hits in eight times at bat. Pullen and Slowtime Evans each gathered three hits in the first contest.

The semi-windup in the Vernon arena Tuesday night turned out to be a walk away for Baby Joe Gans who took every round from Joe Layman.

TO PAUL DE HATE
The 1400 seats at the Olympic Auditorium were nearly all filled Wednesday night, June 23rd when Tommy O'Brien gave Johnny Adams a nice boxing lesson and body drubbing that he will long remember. It would look to the, novice that Adams at least deserved a draw for he led the fight all the time but O'Brien was cleverly meeting all his rushes and twice smacked him to the canvas, Adams each time coming up without a count, but clinching and wrestling thereby saving himself from a knock-out. In the semi-windup everybody expected the hard-hitting Paul De Hate to slaughter Teddy Smith, known as Young "Harry Wills" in short order but up till the end of the fourth round Wills was making a good showing. Except for the third round when

De Hate seemed to have him groggy from some hard smashes to the jaw Wills was leading the fight following De Hate around the ring jabbing and uppercapping and gamely taking those he got in return. The crowd unstintingly cheered the colored boy and many were surprised and disappointed when Wills accidently struck Paul low in a mix-up at the bell in the fourth and lost on a foul.

In spite of the decision, the "wise ones" are of the opinion that the Brown Panther will be side-tracked and the Dempsey-Tunney bout will be held elsewhere. Boyles Thirty Acres, over in New Jersey and Chicago have been mentioned of probable places for the battle.

YOUR TIRES
YOUR TIRES
(Continued From Last Issue)
One of the most important factors in the care of your tires is the condition of your rims. After a year or so used under ordinary conditions rims are attacked with what is called rim rust. Rim rust is a scale that attacks the rim. Dampness and water cause the bead of your tires to attack the rim and your rim becoming rusty in turn attacks the bead and flap of your casing, causing to rotten out. This condition may be avoided by either at given intervals coating your rim with a mixture of graffite and oil or greas or by painting the rim surface with a special, quick drying rim paint. Tires at the best are more or less troublesome to remove and when this trouble is augmented by rust it is ten times as hard to remove the tire.
In a few instances tires with plenty of milesage left in them have been rendered useless by one having to use force to tear the bead loose from the rim. Hundreds of flaps are yearly ruined and occasionally the tire has to be sawed off with a hack saw. These are thoughts worth considering.
Are your rims in the best condition? Do they need painting or grafting. Are they bent, spent or warped. Are the lock latches in work order? What is the proper amount of air to carry? And have they this amount in at the present.
If any of the above conditions exist take steps to eradicate same as one's auto is of no value unless he ca nuse it and to use it before he moves he must have good rubber. So see that your rims are taken care of not neglected. It will expedite time in changing. You'll be on your way sooner to where you're going as no time shall be lost. Try this.
Telephone Meters Up To City Officials
ANDRAE NORDSKOG
Chairman Board of Governors
Peoples Telephone Commission
After trying since last November to
get the Board of Public Utilities to
order the telephone meters removed,
the writer was given a hearing on the
matter on June 3rd at which time the
City Attorney gave his opinion to the
Board-and stated that the Board was
without jurisdiction and that only the
Railroad Commission could govern the
local utilities. The President of the
Board, Philip R. Johnson, granted the
writer two weeks to file a brief on
the opinion of the City Attorney.
ATTORNEY BERNARD POTTER
PREPARES BRIEF
Mr. Bernard Putter, attorney, for the writer, prepared a 19-page brief on behalf of the Peoples Telephone Commission and read it to the members of the Board of Public Utilities on June 22nd. President Johnson of
---
If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNJA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened
the Utility Board said his belief was reversed when he heard the facts presented in Mr. Potter's brief. He at first accepted the opinion of City Attorney Stephens as the final word but he said his eyes were opened by Mr. Potter and he was willing to give very careful consideration to Mr. Potter's brief before taking action on the matter.
MR. POTTER PROVES CITY'S JURISDICTION
Mr. Potter quoted the Supreme Court in the case of the Civic Center Association vs. Railroad Commission, in making reference to the city, retaining its powers for governing local utilities after the Constitutional Amendment of 1914 which gave the rate-making power to the Railroad Commission, the court said.
"That this proviso was considered important is shown by the address to the people, printed and distributed to the voters with the sample ballot previous to the election upon the amendments in effect stating that it was responsible for the opposition by voters residing in such cities who did not wish interference by the legislature with the powers already vested in the cities and to induce them to vote for the amendment."
WAS FRUAD COMMITTED AT 1914 ELECTION?
If the foregoing is to be accepted as fact, then it is not true that those who prepared the amendment made doubly sure that the voters would understand it by sending printed matter from the office of the Secretary of State stating that only RATE-MAKING powers were to be given to the Railroad Commission, and that all other powers over local utilities would be retained by the city? If the foregoing is not a fact and any other construction be placed upon it, then it is not a fact that those who prepared the amendment fooled the voters into voting through gross fraud?
HORSE IS A HORSE, SAYS
CITY ATTORNEY
Mr. Potter also takes issue with City Attorney Stephens in his definition of "Municipal Affairs." Mr. Potter says in his brief: "The City Attorney states that a 'municipal affair' has been denied by our Supreme Court to be one which refers to the internal business affairs of the municipality, that is, management of purely municipal affairs, which is about as enlightening as the statement that "a horse is a horse."
Mr. Potter then quoted several decisions of the Supreme Court wherein the regulatory powers over public utilities such as telephone systems, were declared to be 'municipal affairs'. He quoted the Court in the case of the Sunset Telephone Company vs. Pasadena which further confirmed this interpretation, and also quoted the Court in the case of the Telephone Company vs. Lips Angeles Telephone Company vs. Lips Angeles which declared that ratewater was a municipal affair. That decision was rendered before the 1914 Amendment was adopted but it proves that the control of public utilities is a 'municipal affair'. The Utility Board will give its decision as soon as it has digested Mr. Potter's brief.

'(By the Associated Negro Press) Camden, N. J., June 29—Authorities of this city and county began a search Saturday for Rudolph Buyea, five years old, who, it was learned, was beaten unconscious Sunday two weeks ago by Abby Yancy, "high priestess" of the religious cult at Lawnside, who was sent to jail Friday of last week on a charge of cruelty to children. Revelations, startling in their nature, led to a detection of this city, who is aiding in the investigation. On a visit to Absecon, a small town near Atlantic City, Sunday, revealed a luxuriously furnished house occupied by John Stevenson, one of the two "Messiahs" of the cult.

BUSINESS BACKWARDNESS
As I see it, the outstanding weakness of the Negro race is business backwardness. And this backwardness comes down for thousands of years.
The Negro is not the intellectual inferior of any other people. This is not the generally accepted opinion, I know. I was travelling on a country road in Iowa on day. The white fellow-student who was with me happened to call the name of some rocks in the road. The farmers called the rocks "niggerheads." The rocks were hard and practically useless. I have thought about it as I have been reading of "Niggerhead Mountain" by Joe American. Negro had had hard time. It is a wonder after all the abuses of slavery, and of the times since, that he has been able to develop as many intellectual persons as he has. As a group we are intellectual equals so far as our Creator formed us.
The trouble with the Negro is business backwardness. I tell you: I think King Tut started a lot of our trouble. Not only King Tut; the other Egyptian Pharoahs who led the world in business stupidity. Jesus said of the man who buried one talent: "THOU WICKED AND SLOUTH-FUL SERVANT" Here were men who buried the accumulated wealth of centuries in their pyramids. After four thousand years the white man unearths this wealth and turns it into channels of trade and more enriches the white race on the labors of black peoples. The economic folly of those Egyptian rulers dethroned Africa from it proud position at the head of the continents and races of the world, and started all her peoples on the downward road to poverty and ignorance from which they have never recovered. I wonder if we ever will? That stalwart old Virginian Patrick Henry cried: Give me liberty or give me death! It seems to me sometimes the Negro would rather have death than business prowess and elicitation. How about business efficiency in the churches?
How about business efficiency in our fraternal organizations?
How about business efficiency in finding homes for our people as a group and as individuals?
How about business efficiency in starting corporations and in operating them?
How about business efficiency in buying goals, in salesmanship, in courthouses, in tity-store-rooms in bookkeeping and general handling of the trade?
How about group efficiency in helping the Negro storekeeper to build a business so as to give employment to others of the race?
Think the matter over. Our trouble is business backwardness.
Unusual But True
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Paris.—A large part of this city is built on the water-soaked soil of the River Rhine, and in consequence pile foundations have been used extensively. The wooden piles hitherto employed are now being replaced by concrete.
New York.—Christian Yaster, a colored man, who came here from the Virgin Islands three weeks ago, called out four fire engines when he mistook a fire alarm box for a mail box.
Los Angeles.—This city is the largest in the country in point of area. With a population of about 760,000, it contains 250,651 acres. New York, with a population of more than 6,000,000, contains 191,360 acres.
Napa. Cal.—This town points with pride at the prize apple which is on display here. The apple weighs one and a half pounds and measures 15½ inches in circumference. It is of the Astrachan variety.
White Oaks, Ky.—Officer G. S. McNeal said he dreamed several nights ago that there was liquor in the Baptist Church here. In investigation later revealed twenty gallons of "red" whiskey in the belfry, much to the amazement of the congregation. None of them, however, was arrested.
Newport, Ky.—Scholl teachers of this city, while on duty, were ordered by the Board of Education to wear their dresses "with the lower edge not more than eleven inches from the ground," after a mothers' club had protested that short skirts distracted the students from their studies.
