TELEPHONE: VAndike 9244 S PRODUCTION—"EASY OF UNUSUAL ABILITY CAST OF STUPENDOUS PRODUCTION—"EASY MONEY"—ONE OF UNUSUAL ABILITY Dr. McConnell's brand of Fundamentalism, although I am an ardent Fundamentalist myself. I am told that he preached in this city the preceding Sunday from Romans 1:16, and that it was a marvellous Fundamentalist message it seems to me needless his address to the young people he has neglected to see that Romans 1:16 is also Fundamental: "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who hold the truth in unrighteousness." Any brand of orthodoxy or Fundamentalism which does not comprehend the whole message of the gospel and which does not take into account the fundamentals in Christian brotherhood is not Fundamentalism, but hypocrisy. "Why call me Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?" I have already said that Dr. McConnell captivated his audience. I would not cast any reflections on the audience. I would liken him to a skilful general. He had the bulk of his army on dress parade, and I may say it was beautiful. But he had soldiers hiding in ambush, and these soldiers sallied forth with poisoned arrows which unwaivers straight to the hearts of those whom he was seeking to attack. I am neither a prophet, nor a son of a prophet, but I verily believe that this man has done the Negro race harm which it will require years to overcome. I wish to call a few of Dr. McConnell's soldiers from ambush. Soldier number one—"I am glad to be able to speak to the Northern Baptist Convention of tomorrow today." The darts of the ambush soldiers were directed to the young life of the nation. The youth of the day is the victim of the attacks of race prejudice. Those of us who live in the northern states have had the experience of witnessing very little race prejudice in the grammar grades of the public schools. But when our children enter high schools, they feel it acutely. And when they reach the colleges they feel it more acutely. There appears to be organized propaganda to humiliate the black people, and to see to it that the future leaders of the white people are committed to this idea. This southern minister realized that he was facing the denominational leaders of the next generation, and he set himself to the task of seeing that they were conquered by prejudice of race. Soldier number two—"Prejudice is caused by fear, and envy," and contempt, and ignorance. So far so good, we have seen that prejudice. Both these statements cannot be correct. The doctor elaborated on these points. I adressay that very few if any of his audience came away from that address with the feeling that prejudice is an awful evil to be resisted and overcome. The very fact that he would say that it is instinctive is enough. That which we do by instinct we do not expect to be blamed for. Soldier number three—I have come from that part of the country which is supposed to have a great deal of race prejudice. If you ask the southern people if they believe themselves to be superior to the Negroes, they will unhesitatingly, say that they do." Dr. McConnell did not say that that was not his view. He is a part of the southern people. But this is the soldier that goes forth conquering and to conquer. Or to put it differently, race inferiority is the hypothesis upon which all the propaganda against the Negro is predicated. (Continued on Page Five) RHINELANDER RECORD COST $2,500 White Plains, N.

R SOCIAL CLUB'S F Phone: VANDIKE 9244 VOLUME 40 "Easy Money," to be presented at Gamut Auditorium, August 23rd, the dramatic production of which Los Angeles has been hearing so much, is no longer printed words between two covers, but a living thing, wide awake and beautiful, humorous and pathetic, instructive and entertaining. Its leading roles are portrayed by real actors, that live in their parts and carry their audiences with them. The splendor, he humor, the pathos, the appeal of 150 characters, has never even been attempted by a race company in Los Angeles before. The atmospheric prologue, which precedes the play proper, catches the attention with the beauty of its scenery, glitters with beautiful costumes, rings with sweet toned voices. The fifty women who pledged themselves to see that 500 white persons are present at this play are already working and not "publicity" but fact, to say that if they see "Easy Money," and you do not to miss seeing it, get your tickets NOW! Don't wait until they are all gone. The whites who see this play will go away with something to think about. The Negroes who see it will be proud that they are Negroes. All who don't see it will be sorry. The play is being given by the Propaganda Committee of the Federation of Improvement Associations. It is under the able direction of Mrs. Neosha Bartleson, who is putting every bit of her unusual ability as a dramatic director into its presentation.

THOMAS L. GRIFFITH Pastor of the Second Baptist Church; Griffith Ave. at 24th St. The sermon was delivered on Sunday morning, July 11th and is Published by the request of the Congregation. Acts 17:26—And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on the face of the earth, attended a session of the B. Y. P. U. Convention of the Northern Baptist Convention held in Los Angeles this month. I heard an address delivered by Dr. Lincoln McConnell, pastor of the First Baptist Church of Oklahoma City, Okla., on the "Conquest of Prejudice." I wanted to hear the address, because I had heard so much of a change of sentiment on the part of the white ministry of the south and it seemed to me that the subject afforded an excellent opportunity for a clear expression of this change in sentiment. It did not occur to me when I was making the decision to hear the address that the subject was ambiguous: that the speaker might either treat it in a way to snow that prejudice was being conquered, or in a way to have prejudice to conquer. Dr. McConnell spoke to about four thousand persons, most of them young men and women from all parts of the nation but mostly from the northern states. After the address I heard many expressions both from ministers and young people that he had delivered a great address. He is a man of pleasing personality, of an easy command of language, of the type of oratory which is usually fascinating to an audience, and of grace and bearing before his audience. It is needless to say that he captivated his hearers. And also Dr. McConnell is a Fundamentalist factionally speaking. And he spoke in Rundamentalist territory. The Baptists, especially the Northern Baptists are divided as between Fundamentalists and Modernists. Southern California is overwhelmingly fundamentalist in sentiment. White this Fundamentalist from the south spoke before this northern audience in fundamentalist territory, he touched their hearts, for his audience was most largely sympathetic. And the doctor had given a message in one of the large churches the previous Sunday, which was yet ringing in the ears of any. But personally I cannot appreciate (Continued on Page Five) BIG DAY FOR KIDDIES A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, JULY 23, 1926 Golden State Celebrates First Anniversary At Peoples Independent Church NEXT SUNDAY JULY 25TH One of the outstanding features of the Anniversary Celebration fo The Golden State Guarantee Fund Insurance Company, will be the two services to be held at Peoples Independent Church, Corner 18th and Paloma Sts., next Sunday at 11:00 A.

Thomas pson; retary, League, e, In looking over the various newspapers published in the interest of the Colored race, I saw an article in the New Age-Dispatch which was a reflection on our method of doing business. I was evidently written as a reaction caused by us giving a certain adv. to the California Eagle, and was entirely unwarranted. Our advertising manager, Mr. Cuddy, realizing the value of the patronogre from the Colored people of Los Angeles, had made an advertising appropriation to develop more business among them. After a review of the various papers with Colored circulation, picked the California Eagle because of the large circulaton it has and made an advertising contract with them. And as there was no discrimination, the advertisement being placed simply on the larger circulation, I believe, the write-up of which we complain was unwarranted. We would appreciate it very much if you will do whatever you can to right this matter and place our view-point before the colored citizens of Los Angeles.

The non-producer, according to the Premier, will lose their right to citizenship, torfeit their right to vote, if they cannot show the fruits of production by either mental or physical work. They will be subjected to a catechism which summed up, "Do you entitle to the productiveness of the nation either by the brain or the brawn—by your mental or muscle work?" Those who cannot pass this catechism will be placed in line with the thieves, tramps, vagabonds, paupers and idiots. Iracial drones are as much a detriment to progress as natioal drones. Both are social pariahs retarding the onward march of civilization. Mussolini has taken drastic steps to wipe nonproductive parasites. Often it takes measures to create an desired reform, but there is none that will not laud that vitile Italian for undertaking what no other statesman—even though he held dictatorial power—has had the courage to do. If we only had some means to raise up a racial Mussolini who by some means could compel the "patent leathered haired, bell-bottomed parasites, the non-productives of the race to go to work, it would be ten leagues onward in the progress of a people. A Negro policeman in Indianapolis, Ind., was killed by a bandit. He was credited with superb heroism, and at his funeral the dignitaries of the city paid homage to his loyalty and courage in sacrificing his life on the altar of duty. It was right: it was proper that they should cover his bier with blossoms not because of his loyalty, because that is an essential of his life. He was in the city of duty, thousands of his kin have paid the sacrifice—But they should cover that casket with flowers then how their heads with shame that through their negligence in the enforcement of law thousands of hearts still throbbing, still loyal to duty, are humiliated and crushed. Standing on a railway station platform in Florida, a Negro was approached by a white-man and because he requested a first class ticket to his destination, was knocked down, kicked and beaten in the most brutal manner. Dil any officer die "in the line of duty" while trying to protect that Negro from the assaults of a vicious mob? It is not so recorded, and had it been so there would not have been sufficient printers ink to have supplied the press when heralding it. When some Dixie governor called out a lot of soldiers to protect an alleged murderer the press was brim full of it—"Look how we protect the Negro!" Stage play for which some of us fell. A white fied raped a little colored girl, was caught in the act, did he need a military guard? Not much! If it were possible for John Buchanan, the slain policeman, to speak, he doubtless would say, while your flowers and tears and homage and eulogies are appreciated, I would rather that you remember the debt which you in common with the rest of the nation, owe to the living of my Race and if the example of my death has caused you to vision I hope that you will see clearly the graves of thoseands who have paid the loyal debt and deal out to the living millions the equal right of the living citizenship. If that were possible there would be no repetition of the Florida episode where a man was mobbed because he possessed the first class railway ticket.

What we heard would not look well in print. It would but be a reflection on the ministry and the race. 00 It really looks like a conspiracy among the various candidates for Governor to refuse to organize their forces. Ralph Criswell, most formidable candidate against Joe Crail who announced many months ago, has at last started the ball to rolling and promised an enormous race. Mr. Criswell is well known and numbers the common people as his supporters. Wm. McLemore, San Francisco, is the mally accredited publicity man at the Shortridge headquarters in that city. Sir Walter Butler is the organizer. 00— It is said that Attorney W. O. Tyler has switched his candidacy for Senator in the 38th District and is now running for the Assembly in the 73rd District. 00— Billy Greenwood who has been quoted as a candidate in the 74th for the Assembly, told the Pot Pie man that he would not be in the race for this term. 00— There was held at St. Paul's Baptist Church on last Thursday evening a real and up-to-date political meeting in the interest of Harold Landreth for Congress from the 9th District. W. H. (Pop) Sanders was the Master of Ceremonies, Miss Baumon rected her prize oration also Mr. Middleton. LeBlance's Boys Band played.

It is said that some who have imagined themselves as contenders fell by the wayside and could not qualify. -00- E. T.

Remember how the Jews did England when they caught her in financial straights? When the English Exchequer was near depletion they had to turn to the Jew for aid. Did he aid them? Yes! But not without striking a bargain. The Jews did not have the right of citizenship. The financier said, "Yes we have the money to tide you over and will let you have it for a price." What price? asked the Premier of England. The bargain was made and Disraell-Jew—became the first of his race to head the English government. But then, too bad!

B.)—Alvin Mansel, the 17-year-old boy who was found guilty of attacking a Buncombe county man sentenced to death, will not have his life taken by the state. His sentence has been commuted to life imprisonment by Gov. McLean. The action of the governor came after a prolonged period of petition during which many white persons, including the boy's counsel, expressed their belief in his innocence. New evidence which the jury which found the boy guilty did not have before it, was offered to show that the boy was not guilty. Fifteen white men are now serving terms because of an attack on the jail where Mansel was first confined. They haunted to lynch him. Gov. McLean's commutation of sentence was rendered with a 3,500 word opinion in which he expressed the belief that no good cause would be served by the boy's death. The governor visited Mansel in his cell. As soon as the condemned boy saved the former he sent a message in his sentence, he broke down and cried, confessing to the chief executive that he had been praying all day long. Much credit is given Mansel's Lawyer, a white man who accepted the case against, his will became convinced of his client's innocence and worked untiringly after the jury verdict to save the boy's life. "CINCINNATI'S COL- ORED CITIZENS" THE NEW BODK BY W. P. DABNEY By: WILLIAM PICKENS (For the Associated Negro Press) This is the title of an important historical document by W. P. Dabney, editor of the "Union" and formerly City Paymaster of Cincinnati, Ohio. the book could justly be called "The Negro in Cincinnati History," for indeed it contains not only the most complete history ever written of the colored people, of that city, but much interesting information about the whites; the Tafts, Longwests, Forakers and Harriet Brother Stowe. This book is packed with material which no future historian of Cincinnati's story can afford to overlook. It tells of Cincinnati from the Glacial Epoch to DeHart Hubbard, who we are interested in learning was born in Cincinnati. Every student of the American race question will want a book which gives the "color" history of one of the greatest racial "frontier" cities of the country. Cincinnati has stood for generations right in front of the Southern ideals, insofar as they have been in conflict, and a thorough knowledge of Cin- cinnati means a thorough group on the greatest "race problem" in the world. There is perhaps no other city in the nation which holds so much of interest in this particular, perhaps not even Baltimore or Washington. Debbyh has pioneered in this service to his city and to the study of American racial facts. Others will have to build on the foundation laid by him. ARE YOU TIRED OF THE BIG CITY?

We are not going to discuss the 'whys' and 'wherefores,' fight or criticise anyone, but we have gone in there with our eyes open and with both feet on the ground with plenty of money with which to give deeds and titles to all of those who have waited so long for same. WATER: Contract for the development of water has been let to Ralph Shaffer of Filmore, California, who is now engaged in putting piles in the river-bed at Filmore, and promises to get into Eureka Villa during the week of July 25th. GENERAL IMPROVEMENTS: A general contract for the development of the entire tract, roads, dams, pools, parkways, playgrounds, etc., has been let to George Paonossa, 1045 Highland, Los Angeles, California. Should the little company release us in time, we will formally open this tract on Labor Day with the largest swimming pool in the county at which time Jimmie Smith will stage a "Bathing Girl' contest: silver trophy and cash, etc., as prizes. HUDSON SPECIAL BROUGHAM: To all persons who should buy a lot at Eureka Villa on or before September 15th, 1926, we will give a number; to all persons who now hold contracts and are behind in their payments, but who care to pay up by September 15th, will also be given a number. These numbers will entitle you to a chance of being presented with this automobile now on display at A. L. Johnston's, Inc., Hudson and Essex Agency, 25th and Central Avenue. To those who will make no effort whatever to bring their payments down to date by September 15th, 1926, your contracts will be cancelled and all money paid in forfeited as liquidated damages. We shall more than do our part at Eureka Villa and most assuredly will expect you to do yours. Payments will be accepted by the National City Bank, 8th and Main Sts., until our escrow and trust shall have been completed, at which time you will be instructed to put in your demands for deeds and title. LAURA C. JANES, Sidney P. Dones, Eureka Development Ass'n., Eureka Villa Advisory Board and Rev. E. R. Driver, all of whom have nothing more to do with the management of Eureka Villa, but when the title company shall have finished its search of this entire property we will own Eureka Villa outright and have ample money with which to develop same. It is true, we did secure the county's help with a park program to the extent of $25,000.00, but we did not authorize anyone to commercialize on that information with a letter or public demonstration, neither did we authorize anyone to use Eureka Villa to further their interests politically and as owners of that place, do feel that someone or group exceeded their authority, therefore, we are not responsible for anything that has been said or done by anyone but ourselves. To date, there has been only one person authorized to talk about the future plans of Eureka Villa, namely, Mrs. Nellie Turner, AXridge 5008. Should anyone desire to know more or pay contracts down to date, or make new purchases, or any salesmen care to sell these lots, see Mrs. Turner.

Carter, which was held at Metropolitan Baptist Church last Wednesday afternoon was largest and saddest occasion ever attended. Rev. Carter was the founder and pastor of Metropolitan Baptist Church and was loved by his loyal members. While in his health he did much good in upbuilding the cause of Christ and had he not been so anxious that his church go on, and had stopped in due time to take care of himself, he might not have gone so early. But he said that he had work to finish and we feel that he did, for the greater part of his life was given to God, to use that He was made manifest through Him. Rev. W. H. Rozier preached an able sermon; Dr. J. M. Young, acting pastor of Metropolitan was Master of Ceremonies and eulogies and resolutions from respective pastors, ministers and churches were read. The Metropolitan Ladies Quartette sang a beautiful song and the choir sang his request number "Angels Get My Marriage Ready," and his favorite "Somebody Knows." Rey, Carter was a young man, only 33 years of age. He left to mourn his loss a mother, a dear wife and adopted daughter, 3 sisters' and a host of friends. Conner-Johnson had charge of his body and interment in Evergreen Cemetery.

"Hey! gimme a chance to 'spress myself.' Dog-bite it, if I hadn't run across a bit of philosophy which was recently quoted by the 'Old Wise Chink,' one of the leading characters appearing with the 'Gumps' in the L. A. Times' funny section, stating that, 'He who in adversity does not tire, tires adversity.'" I am afraid that I might have been still laofing on the job, because this hot heat 'makes a fellow feel as though he doesn't care to go any further in life. Why, it's even too hot to loaf comfortably. BUG HOUSE FABLES People in the East are wishing we could send them some of our heat, as it is so immensely cool there during the summer season. One of the most unique affairs of the season, was a Venetian Gondola Party, which was given last Thursday evening, July 15, at Venice, Cal., by a distinguished sextet of young men including Messrs. Mercier and Lloyd Reese, Nathaniel Rucker, Leslie Nickerson, Vrgil Benton and ye Sparkles Editor. The party lasted from 7:30 until 12:30. The guests met at Brosky Hall, Venice, Cal., which was beautifully decorated by Mr. A. L. Reese, who is known as one of the finest decorators on the Pacific Coast, white or black, and who is also the esteemed father of both Lloyd and Mercier Reese, where they danced until 10:00. Two contests, consisting of waltzing and balloon blowing provided special entertainment. Miss Margaret Stanton and Mr. Jules Narcisse won the waltzing contest and were presented with a petite loving cup, while Miss Antoinette Gamble won a'trophy of the same kind for blowing the largest and the best shaped baloon within a certain time. Punchette the Era Frappe kept everyone very much refreshed. Mr. Leon Rene and his Venetians furnished the red hot toe tickling music. At ten sharp the guests departed from the Hall, and went over to the canal where the gondola and a fleet of canoes awaited them at the pier. The guests numbered to 60, that is there were twenty-nine of California's most fascinating and charming young ladies. We say twenty-nine because ye Sparks Editor was accompanied by Miss Frances H. Lewis who is not from California, but who is one of Chicago's petite and most charming young belles, and who is visiting Los Angeles indefinitely, she made up the thirty; and there were thirty most distinguished young men. The chapers included Mrs. Wm. Nickerson, Mrs. Woods, Mrs. Bruington, Mrs. Benton, Mrs. A. L. Reece, Mrs. J. Reece and Mrs. H. Allen. Oh, yes, Uncle Joe was there and kept everyone smiling. Just before the guests boarded the gondola and the canoes, skipper Mercer L. Reece made the announcement that he had just received a wire from the man it couldn't be on the job, as it too, unfortunately, had something lined up for that particular evening, but the stars would be out.

The guests that were, not in the gondola were provided with canoes, and from that time on until 12:30 Cupid had charge of the party, so to speak. At 12:30 the guests departed stating that they had spent a very, very delightful evening.

The Negro has not fur. nished the skill and ingenuity which made all this possible.” Now, I sup- pose when Dr. McConnell and_ the people of whom he is a part bring these facts together, they conclude [that the Negro is inferior, But racial inferiority is uot a Chris- tian hypethesis. “God inath made of one; blood all nations of men.” Why chet this ditfereace in racial achieve- ment? “Are there not other hypothe- sies? May we ba allowed to suggest two others, and to draw to some com- parisons, And these two are: the Ne- kroes are a fallen people, and they are a maltreated people. | The first civilizaiion of the world was Negro. The face of the Sphynx is Negro. ‘The statuary in European art galleries which is true to life shows the faces of ancient Egyptians as biack. The very word Ethiopian means burnt-face. These black peo- vies bad reached a high civilization wher Agraham came down into Egypt. And it is known that- many things which they did then canior be done now. A missionary whe spent forty years in the Belgian Congo says that after years of study of tne language of the Congo people he has found that ‘they bave a pertect kunguage. It has come down through the centuries a marvel of exactness. It is common knowledge that the methods of build- ing the pyramids, and of emblaming the bodies of the dead are lost to the world. But those ancient people fell. it is very clear that those people fei’ becuase of three failings. But aot eve the South should point the Anger of scorn at the Negro for these fauings.

The swimming pool seems to be the bone of contention. There has been established near Central Avenue on 22nd Street, a new swimming pool at which a white care taker has been provided and white people are told this pool is for Negroes only. Now in these environs there resides a cosmopolitan population, they don't care anything about color, but they want cleanliness and are all het up over the order of things. On the other hand the N. A. A. C. P. and other organizations who are always on the job to fight discrimination are all worked up on having "jim crow" thrust upon them. Some rumors are afloat that the opening of this pool is a compromise on the fight pending in the courts on this issue and that some persons have benefited from this angle. Of course these are all rumors which as yet have not been verified. We will in due time furnish the low down on the whole situat.on, giving the full result of our investigaton.

Suffice to say at this moment it looks like the colored people of Los Angeles have been exploited by the hat in hand and me-too-boss Negro. The pussy-footers and snipe shooters have played a hidden hand and as a result of dastardly lies, the powers that be think they are giving the Colored people what they want. As a matter of fact, they don't want anything more than any other people, and for that reason, the swimming pool so graciously dedicated to them is repugnant to the highest degree. All they want, is to stand up side by side with the law and the constitution. Government Warns Public Against Fraudulent Radioactive Waters And Drugs The alleged medicinal efficacy of slightly radio-active waters and other slightly radioactive preparations has been found to be much misrepresented, say officials of the Bureau of the ment of the Federal Food and Drugs Act, have made a nation-United States Department of Agriculture, who, in the enforce-wide survey of waters and drugs alleged to be radioactive. The products analyzed for content of radium included hair tonics, bath compounds, suppositories, tissue creams, tonic tablets, face powders, ointments, mouth washes, demulcents, opiates, ophthalmic solutions, healing pads and other preparations in solid, semi-solid and liquid form for which therapeutic value because of alleged radioactivity was claimed. Only five per cent of the products analyzed and claimed to be radioactive contained radium in sufficient quantities to render them entitled to consideration as therapeutic agents and then only in certain very limited conditions, say the officials. Highly exaggerated therapeutic claims obviously designed to mislead the purchaser are being made for many of the products which contain little or no radium. One of the samples examined consisted of a short glass rod coated on one end with a yellow substance and enclosed in a glass bulb. The bulb is designed to be hung over the bed and according to the claims of the inventor causes dispersion of "all thoughts and worry about work and troubles and brings contentment, satisfaction and body comfort that soon results in peaceful, restful sleep." Action will be taken under the Federal Food and Drugs Act against shipments of the alleged radioactive products which are falsely or fraudulently mis-branded under the terms of the Federal Food and Drugs Act. A warning regarding the indiscriminate use of those few products which are highly radioactive is also sounded by the officials. "The distribution to the general public without discrimination or adequate supervision of highly radioactive products or the devices for rendering water or other substances highly radioactive" says the department, "is of very questionable proprietary since radium in active dosage is potent for harm as well as for good and should be administered with great caution." THEY ARE OFF VISUALIZE JIM CROW RELISH ```markdown ``` If You Fail To Read The CALIFORNIA EAGLE You May Never Know It Happened LIFE'S LITTLE-THINGS How She Arose From It was the rush of shopping hour on Monday and pushing, running, miling crowds at 4th and Hill were pouring out of the Pacific Electric station, spreading various ways into the street like the flood waters of a river. A lonely, little stray cat stood bewildered in the middle of the side-walk unnoticed by the owners of the thousands of feet that seemed about at any moment to trample him. Hobbling along the street came a little old woman, chipped and frail, shabbily dressed as if she were a beagar. Spying the forlorn kitty she stooped and raised him in her arms, cuddling him against her cheek. For fully five minutes she stood there as the crowds rushed on around her, petting the kitty and whispering to it, as it nestled on her shoulder and happily purred. Then she placed it gently down and hobbled on her way. Both seemed to feel the need of a friend; of companionship—one of life's little things. A nicely dressed Colored lady gets on the crowded south-bound State Street car at Madison and State in Chicago. She is helped on by a large, flambouyantly dressed Colored individual who loudly exclaims: "Jes walk right in Miss' Lucy, I got yo suit cases; she glad to see you; set down anywhar among dese white folks, disn't Memphis, ain't no Jim Crow here, dis is a free country, I ain't never goin' back to Memphis no mo." And seating himself by a quiet-looking old white lady, he spread a big newspaper open over both her lap and his ands be read, at times looking back to call to the now thoroughly ashamed Colored lady, as the other passengers gigled: "No siree, youse come to de right place now, ain't no Jim Crow here." Not much of an incident but each pebble effects a river's flow; each action, good or bad, affects the status of a race—One of life's little things. President Fillmore was being harassed by a group of politicians, led by State Secretary Daniel Webster. They were urging him to sign a bill concerning a matter that his wife, estimable first lady of the land then, had advised him not to approve of. Failing in time to get further advice from her he gave way to the pressure of the persistent politicians and signed the abominable bill which became the "Fugitive Slave Law." Could she have reached him in time it would never have been passed.—One of life's little things. A Choir of well harmonized voices was singing a beautiful hymn under the stars while the great audience sat in rapt attention. It was a musical contest and this choir seemed to bik fair to get a place among the winners. Suddenly above the smooth tones a man's tenor voice screeched out a high discord in attempting to reach a note of the upper scale. Seeming to lose control his raucous tones the spell broken, the crowd burst out laughing; and the choir had lost its chance.—One of life's little things. RANDOLPH OUTLINES NEW PROGRAM FOR SLEEPING CAR PORTERS Chicago, July 13. (By A. N. P.) A program by which sleeping car porters may receive higher wages and better working conditions was outlined to the Chicago members of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters by A. Phillip Randolph, national organizer, Sunday afternoon at the Metropolitan Community Center, here. The plan, as explained, by the organizer includes the issuance of questionnaires to report the conditions of the Pullman porters' case which is to be prosecuted to the Meditation Board by Attorneys McDonald Richburg, Frank P. Walsh and C. Francis Stratford. Mr. Randolph reviewed the accomplishments of the Brotherhood among which were claims of good membership and the endorsement of the N. A. A. C. P. The speaker declared that the Brotherhood had proved to the world that a group of Negroes had grown up that could not be corrupted by dollars, and in passing "paid his respect" to Perry W. Howard and the leadership of "his ilk," terming such leaders as "graphaphones that record and reproduce the thoughts and wishes of their white bosses" and characterized their leadership as worthless and corrupt. The Harmony Art and Literary Club met at the residence of Mrs. A. R. Henderson, 1116 E. 28th St., July 15, 1926. The club enjoyed the afternoon at whist. The club will enjoy its next meeting at the residence of Mrs. John Jessup, 1318 E. 33rd St. Mrs. Robt. Roan entertained the Sunbeam Whist Club on Friday of last week at her residence, 1551 East 52nd Street. Twelve guests were present and, a delightful dinner of fried chicken, potato salad, ice cream, etc., was served. Mrs. L. G. Yerwood won first prize and Mr. Robt. Roan carried off the booby. P In the year of our Lord, 1873, there was born in Louisville, Ky., a little black baby girl, and because of her striking beauty and interesting personality, even as a baby, her grandmother christened her Madam Sul-te-Wan, the name taken, we believe, from som close Indian connection in the family. Hwoever the grandmother loked upon her wee connection with an eye of especial favor predicting that the tiny baby some day would become an outstanding character. As she was styled, the little Madam of the house, grew, and waxed, into womanhood. She was not only the sunshine of her own home, but of the community in which she lived. People came from far and near to see little Madam, as she was fondly called, laugh. But those who looked, into and feasted upon the laughing eyes of the little black darling of the home were exceeding sorrowful one day when the news spread abroad that the win-some little girl had gone blind. This shadow of dispair lingered upon Madam Sult-te-Wan for two pears bringing down grief upon the whole family. But kind friends came to the assistance of the family, which was not top-heavy in worldly goods, and medical skill wrought wonders, and little Madam once more opened her laughing eyes upon a glittering world of gladness, and beauty.

CHILDREN WEstmore 2060 Negroes Jailed For White Woman's Crime Montgomery, Ala., July 12. (By A. N. P.) Now, after six years of prison life, freedom has just come to John Murchison and Cleo Staten, who on October 21, 1920, were found guilty of first degree murder in connection with the death of John Franklin. McClendon, and sentenced to life imprisonment. Two other Negroes sentenced with Murchison and Staten died while in prison for a crime of which they were innocent. It is now learned that the crime for which these colored men went to jail was planned and committed by the wife of a deed man, Mrs. Myrtle McClendon King and Otis McClendon, to whom she promised forty acres of land, a house and a mule for his part in the slaying. Her husband was shot as he entered the house, then wrapped in a quilt and left where supervision would point to Negroes. Mrs. King married again since her former husband's death, is in jail now and was given a preliminary hearing Wednesday. Murchison and Staten have been paroled by Governor Brandon.

Many changes, startling and significant, have come upon Paris in the days since the war, but among the innovations in the theater, none has been more astonishing than Lew Leslie's presentation of Florence Mills at the Ambassador cabaret. Night life in this city is being re-made to conform to the high standard and high prices which Leslie's fast-stepping American Negroes demand. Quite as much interest has been created by the change which Miss Mills has brought to the Ambassador as by the character of her entertainment. Ambassador is one of those old Paris houses with a history reaching back for scores of years. Some of the buildings of France or of England have developed has their cousins with Ambassador appearances. There was Marie Sagge, the great singer whom Meyerbern had wished to create the role in L'Arkansas, who made her debut there and the first Selika, whose story of her experience there has the flavor of an odyssey. But in its greatest days the Ambassador never knew anything so original and so ample as the MOL's smile. Admission: $1; $2; $3; $4; $5 Tickets on Sale: ROOM 32 ARCADE BUILDING tion. That is one reason the night lifers are content to part with forty frances just to get in, to say nothing of food and drinks. One Paris paper is publishing daily the opinions of France's stars of the stage, such as Mistinguett, about the "Blackbirds" from America.

WHO'S TAKING HIS PLACE Why, a little yellow-skinned midget from the Phillipines, known as a Phillipino. It is no uncommon thing now-adays to see him driving the madam or her husband on the shopping tour or to business. Yes, he is rapidly making inroads amongst the rank and file of colored drivers just as the Jap has almost entirely supplemented the Negro attendant in apartment houses. The Negro is losing ground because he is not organized to combat the enemy. White boys have an organization and behind that they have a powerful spokesman in the shape of a monthly periodical well edited with high-class advertisement in it. They 'tend' to business, they have a treasury. Colored boys have nothing, not even good will for one another. Must this continue? Must the organization they once had with a membership of nearly 200 and which still has a treasury of some Two Hundred Dollars, remain dormant, not even drawing interest? Few have good jobs. Many have allowed themselves to be forced into the position of butler, gardner, roustabout departments of the household, while the white boy, and the Phillipino drives out of the garage* passes the fromer chauffeur washing the windows, picks up the Madam and leaves For Realty Co.

THE WELFARE COMMITTEE (Continued from Page One) Dr. Somerville recounted the history of the plan for such a Survey. A committee composed of several Negroes and Father O'Dwyer had been formed to consider the industrial situation of the Negro in Los Angeles, and the solution of the problem by a joint meeting of the Committee and the head of the Chamber of Commerce, etc., where the facts obtained could be frankly discussed. Owing to the lack of facilities on the part of the Urban League, a Negro Industrial Survey was suggested to the Social Welfare Department, with the ultimate result that, when the Research Division of the Social Welfare Department of the Community Welfare Federation was created the Negro Industrial Survey was listed as, an initial undertaking. He pointed out the timeliness of the Survey in view of the fact that the annual drive for the Community Chest would soon be made, and such a Survey would advertise, to the Negroes especially, the value of the Community Welfare Federation. Mr. Lipsitch then reported on his conference with Mr. Charles S. Johnson in Cleveland and with Mr. Eugene Hinchle Jones in New York City; and Miss Wilson read from the correspondence she has had with Mr. Hinchle in regard to the Survey, in which he gave several price suggestions. She stated these were made for preliminary work had been acted upon as plausible. Mr. inswitch next suggested that there were two major considerations, the first of which was the interpreting of the findings. He pointed out that it would be a waste of time and money to make the Survey if there were not a full and valuable interpretation of the findings. Dr. Somerville responded by suggesting a joint conference of the heads of such organizations as the Chamber of Commerce, the Community Welfare Federation, etc., and representative Negroes. He also suggested the "10% plan" as worked out in Detroit and Chicago. A general discussion of the question followed, in which it was brought out that, while the request for the Survey came to the Community Welfare Federation from Dr. Somerville, the idea was the unthinkable of a recommendation in a Survey of Negro children made by the Community Welfare Federation in 1892. The question of the mind of the Survey, raised by Mr. Moore was met by a statement from Mr. Watters to the effect that the Board of Discussions of the Community Welfare Association had investigated the question and were agreed upon the need Mr. ```markdown ``` --- Barr also stated that the existing question in skilled and professional work for the Negroes was still very difficult; and that there had been a loss rather than a gain in the field in recent months. Dr. Somerville mentioned the tendency of certain groups to work actively to supplant Negro with white help, emphasized the dangers of such procedure, and again mentioned the Chicago and Detroit solution. Mr. MacWatters then suggested that the need having been admitted, the first pliant was to decide how to proceed in the making of the Survey. The question of its interpretation could be more easily solved when all of the facts were in. Mr. Lipsitch then asked the representatives of the Negro organizations if Mr. Charles S. Johnson, Director of the Department of Research and Investigations of the National Urban League, would be acceptable to them. All present agreed on Mr. Johnson's qualifications and offered their support and co-operation with the Urban League in the undertaking. The consensus of opinion was that it would be a wise and timely undertaking, and would tend to ameliorate conditions. It was moved by Mr. Green and seconded by Dr. Hudson that "it is the consensus of opinion that the Negro Industrial Survey be made under the auspices of the Urban League and under the direction of Mr. Johnson." The motion was unanimously carried. Mr. MacWatters added that it should be understood that the Survey will be made by the Research Division of the Community Welfare Federation, which has called into consultation the Urban League and other representative Negro organizations and with the assistance of Mr. Johnson. The question of interpretation was again raised. Mr. Tyler reported in more detail the results of the Chicago Interracial Commission's investigation, and pointed out the fact that the presence of a large number of Negro workers in the City has never been brought to the attention of the larger employers. Mr. Moore pointed out the advisability of giving general publicity to the findings, not only to all organizations interested, but also to the general public. Office space in the Urban League was offered for the making of the Survey in case of need. er Mr. Moore, raised the question of Funds on hand. The history of the creating of the Research Division was briefly recounted, during which Dr. Somerville made the point that the Survey should, according to the original plan, have preference over other work, both as to time and expense. The question of bringing in an outsider was raised and pointed out by Mr. Babbock to be contrary to the present policy of the Board. It was then pointed out that there was no Negro in the City with the necessary training and experience; and the expenses would be less than that of a regular member of the stuff. Miss Hawley, the visitor from the Brooklyn Urban League, pointed out the advisability of getting the work done, and that the pride and fear sometimes felt by the Negro people might make it difficult for a white person to obtain all the information necessary. The following resolution was moved by Mr. Moore and second by Mr. McWatters: that the Board of Directors of the Community Welfare Federation be requested to approve the action of the Committee that Charles S. Johnson, Director of the Department of Research and Investigations of the National Urban League, be brought to Los Angeles to assist in making a Negro Industrial Survey. Mr. MacWatters was appointed to bring the matter before the Board of Directors. The motion was unanimously carried. It was asked by the Chairman that suggestions be made for additional members of this advisory committee. Acting on Mr. Tyler's suggestion it was decided that the names should be sent in to Miss Wilson of the Research Division within the next few days, after there had been time for consideration, and acted upon by the Committee at its next meeting. The representatives present, with the addition of memoirs, would then continue to a "Special Survey Committee" Mr. C. I. D. Moore was elected chairman and Mr. Lipsitz secretary. It was agreed that Mr. Johnson would be wired immediately after the meeting of the Board of Directors on Thursday. It was also decided that it would be advisable to have publicity on the Survey carried out through newspapers, churches, circulars, etc. further details were left for the next meeting. Adjourned.

Conners, nationally known sportsman, and Baseball figure, passed away here last Friday. Mr. Conners had been in ill health for some time but his death was a surprise to friends who had expected and hoped for his recovery. Baseball fans all over the country remember the great ball club operated by-Mr. Conners for a number of years, the Bacharach Giants. The Giants toured America and made a lasting impression among baseball followers throughout the nation. One of the remarkable feats of the club was a 21-inning game played in Chicago against the American Giants and was won by the Gants 1-0 a few years ago. It was the last appearance of the Bacharachs in this section. Soon after this game, Mr. Conners retired from the game and devoted his time to the operation of a cafe, jointly owned by himself and the late Baron Wilkins. He was buried Monday afternoon from his home in this city. Sportsmen from all sections attended the funeral. Baseball players learned to love Mr. Conners and his death cast a sadness over the entire baseball fraternity. SANTA BARBARA The Woman's Self-Improvement Club met at the home of Mrs. L.

While in Los Angeles, Mrs. Pearl Lewis Gray was the house guest of Miss Christman at the Christman Anpments. Among the many delightful courtesies shown Mrs. Gray during her visit here were a motor trip to San Diego and Tia Juana, a visit to the studios and Hollywood Bowl, theatre parties at the Egyptian and Metropolitan theatres, a trip to Catalina and several charming luncheons. Mrs. Gray left Thursday, via Chicago over the California Limited where she will spend a short time with her uncle, Louis B. Anderson before her return hom to D.C. California greets you, Dr. Hugh, when are you coming out? According to executives of local charity, welfare, relief and social agencies, affiliation with the Los Angeles Community Chest is making it possible to increase the scope of service and to act more efficiently than ever before. Annual reports of various agencies show a marked increase of service over those of previous periods. The Volunteers of America Home for the Aged and for Dependent Children; in its annual report of the fiscal year ending June 1, discloses the fact that 142,965 meals were served during that period. Destitute families were helped; prisoners' families were rehabilitated. The Salvation Army, in the last six months, the semi-annual report states, furnished poor and undernourished children with 58,764 quarts of milk. The Salvation Army Women's Free Employment Bureau gave poor mothers jobs and cared for their babies in the day nursery during working hours. There were 312 such women helped through this service in six months' time. The increase in efficiency and service is due to the fact that agencies are no longer troubled with fund raising campaigns, according to agency officials. This task is taken over by the Community Chest which hold one appeal once a year for 1G agencies, thus relieving the public of the burden of campaign drives on "tagging" and campaigns.

A full house which was presented'to Chapter of the Alpha Kappa “Alpha sorority made a tremendous hit Fri day last a week ago a: the Gamut Club. If the laughs af the audience may be accepted as a‘ reliable assur- tance that a comedy is “going over big’ ‘then this one was a howling success. -From the moment that Mr. Jefferson Brown stood debating wheter to an answer the door or the teleshone first, goers of Los Angeles are agreed that widen until Miss Helen Wheeler, as Susie the maid, appeared on the stage ready to leave for Sioux City—then there was the grand outburst which comes from pent up laughter held in until this time for fear of missing something. The comicalities o: this faree were as incessant as sputtering from a string of chinese fire works. One laugh was followed by a greate> one brought on by increased icomplica- tions and wit. ‘A fall house which was presented t a-full house is the crowning event of ail collegiate activities. The theatre goers of Los Angeles are agreed thatt this play was put on in real profes- sional style, not one delay, not one hiteh not one flaw: everything. was in its proper place ail time, and every character was in his or her proper role. Mr, Jefferson Brown as the butler, truly represented an english butler. Never did any butle- hold his back any straighter, or leave off ‘h’ more consistently than did the Parks of this farce. Susie the maid with whom he wag contiually at daggers points was admiraily done by Miss Helen Wheel- er. She caught the audiente unvier the ribs and justtwaade. them laugh, SheJooked forward continually to re- turn to her home in Sioux City and ‘the entire audience was more than pleased when she was iven the nec- cessary $22.50. Was there ever one more excited, more nervous, more hys- teric, more truly bride like than was Miss Ursula Pruitt taking the part of Otilly Howell a bride of a few days. She lost ani gained confidence in her husband so rapidly until the only way to tell just how she was feeling .at that particular time was to listen clsoely to hear tones and see whether she was talking “mush” as her aunt call it. Bliss Pruitt has been acclaim- ei by some as the star of the perform- ance, It is certainly true that a well paid _profegsional artist could not have: played the role with any more ease and grace. Garner Grayson playing as her husband waas great, adopting himself to her moods, endeavoring to help his friend out of ever increasing difficulties, wishing he coulil “step on” that ever present Aunt of his wife, but managing through all to retain the love of his wife and clear himself of suspicion The gloom dispenser was well played ‘by Miss Majorie Bright who took the part of the Aunt. Miss Bright is well known all over Los An- geles as a real actress and in this role she was at her ie A wort of com- menglation could be said of each char- acter. Misg Portia Lee as the spoiled daughter of the rich, looking forward to.her wedding with her fiancee in the person of Mr. Edwin Jefferson who wishes to rush it for| reasons best known to himself were exceptionally good. The same adjective could be ap- plied to Mr. John Riddle as the myst- erious stranger and Miss Clothilde Curry one of the causes for complica—_ tions, as a show girl. The three police in the person of Mr. Ivah Johnson, Mr. Grant Venerable and Mr. Warner Wright conducted themselves as Pe licemen should by letting the _cro ect cway and then rushing to capture | him. ‘Too much cannot be said of all the characters. Mrs. Hortense Colly and Miss Ruby Jefferson as low mem- bers of the aristocratic set showed where théy belonged by their clothes and that “tilted chin” manner. "As was said in the begniing all the characters were well chosen and show- ed that their directors knew just what they were about. The three ladies who directed this farcg were quite at home in this line of work in the per- soneb of Mrs. Neosho Bartleson, Dr. Alice Garrott and Mrs. Minnin Wyck- liffe. The result of their effort could be easily seen.
