TELEPHONE: VAndike 9244 1879 VOLUME 40 WHAT IS THE NATURE OF THE RACE PROBLEM? I am asked by a correspondent who expresses interest in my release to discuss the propositions involved in the following interrogative: 1. Is the American Negro problem a business, and can it be solved by politics? 2. Is it a religious problem, and can it be settled by religion? 3. Is it an economic problem, and can it be solved by economics? My general response is that all of these factors are efficient agencies in the solution of the race problem; but no one of them is sufficient. It will require all of them operating separately and co-operating conjointly to bring about the desired solution. Ever with these it will posibl require additional agencies beyond those mentioned to effect the desired consummation. In sociology, as in mathematics, before attempting to solve a problem you must know it, with the involvement of certain known and unknown elements. When the unknown quantity is isolated and equated in terms of the known, the problem is said to be solved. We know that there are two easily distinguishable groups of races, which have sundry different physical characteristics and peculiarities; that the white group has been and is the more numerous and controlling factor; that it possesses many acquired superiority and has been the reason of race prejudice, has kept them socially asunder. If we can isolate race prejudice and bring it under the control of known principles, then we would be well on the way to solution. While as yet no social analyst has been able to do this, yet we are warrantably satisfied that race prejudice has been the exigencies of politics. The Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments gave the Negro full political equality with the whites, but the exactions of race prejudice have practically nullified their intent and purpose. If politics could solve the race problem, the reconstruction enactments would have done so. Indeed the sanction of race prejudice has been the reason of the Americans people make a scrap of paper cut of their own constitution; and it is done. Even where indications are of sat factory solution. Let us take the border states of Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky and Missouri, where the Negro votes as freely as any other citizen, in those states the race problem is not solved nor is the final solution clearly indicated. These states practice as the model of the race of the South, and in those states we witness in the lower South where there is practically complete disfranchisement. Separate schools, fm-crow care, segregation and anti-intermarriage laws constitute the general order. If the prevailing regime is less restrictive than is the lower South, it is not due to the fewer use of the bailable populations. The fact is the privilege of exercising the right to vote ever conditioned upon comparative number. The Negro votes freely in the North and West where his numbers are insignificant. In the border states where the race is relatively more numerous, the franchise, through unrestricted, has more than once threatened in jeopardy whenever it threatens prejudices. It is, therefore, plain to see that the franchise does not condition and control race prejudice, but is conditioned and controlled by it. What reason have we to suppose that the franchise would solve the race problem in the South, when it obviously fails to do so in the North? If every Negro in the United States had every political right demanded by the Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the problem would surely be shifted to a new plane, but would be as far from solution as it is today. No one ever heard of solving the Jewish problem by politiced. The Nineteenth Amendment has not solved the sixth problem. Politics creates so many problems not solved. It was not a hasty philosophy that in Politics has its own field and sphere. It has to do with the control and regulation of the government whose chief function is to protect life and property and to insure justice between man and man. Government cannot control the feelings, passions, and prejudices of man except in so far as these interfere with the ends of justice. The American people experienced a spasm of virtue during the anti-slavery conflict which culminated during the Civil War and his immediate aftermath. It did seem, for the most part, that the mob's dissatisfaction in the city of the actions. During this proclamation event, the Negro was given a political power and preerogative. Every safeguard that the law could devise was thrown about him to uphold and protect him in his recently bequeathed status. It was during this interval, when race prejudice was momentarily off guard, that the Negro reached the pinnacle of political power and pre-empted the congressmen, governors, judges and legislators widely scattered throughout the South. Washington was familiar with Negro senators, congressmen and registers, editors, recorders, marshals and foreign ministers. But also, where are they today? They have vanished as a school boy's tale, the wonder of an hour. They came at the time when race prejudice was held obeyance by virtue of a greater passion than in the greater passion began to wane, race prejudice began to reassert itself and swiftly swept away all but the last vestige of the erstwhile political power and privilege once so generously enjoyed. Today the Negro is rapidly approaching the sore point on the scale of political favor, because race prejudice is now in the ascendancy. As good an organization as the Republican Party, and as good a president as Salvador Coolidge will not appoint a colored man to the high political stations formerly accorded the race, because he excluded from high office, and segregated in the civil service because race prejudice exists, and politics or politicians have not the moral courage to resist 'its demands. From what has been said, the fair-minded reader must be convinced that no early solution may be looked for through the agency of politics. But the political field should not be suspinely surrendered. Because we cannot secure all, there is no reason why we should not be able to command the state by a showdown. Pen million Negroes count for nullity in the state mainly because they do not wisely and skillfully marshall and manipulate their forces. There are still some few things that could be commanded upon the basis of political strength. I wonder, by the way, if Mr. Matthews, of Massachusetts, with his fourteen points, is still alive and is still insisting on his ambitious scale of rights' was moderated enough for ten million sovereign American citizens, and ye tn to a single one of his fourteen points has received the slightest consideration from the friendly powers to whom they were presented. Who will have the temerity to repeat this audacious political fact of demanding race recognition? Will those fourteen points be again demanded during the approaching military campaign to see the Negro increase in his political preferment. I expect, as well as hope to live to see the time when larger recognition will be accorded the race. But I have no expectation or hope to live long enough, to see politics exercise a controlling influence over race prejudice or have any determinitive effect upon the political cannot solve the race problem; but the race problem cannot be solved without politics. And now I have devoted all of my allotted time and space to this one interrogative alone. I shall return to it when I have learned what to do when I hope to treat with equal fullness the political and religious agency as factors in the solution. Seeks to Block Discrimination in Appropriations (By: A. N. P.) Washington, Dec. 27—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, through its local president, Neval H. Thomas, has addressed a letter to Congressman Martin B. Madden, chairman of the house committee on appropriations, protesting against the discrimination experienced in the appropriations for the current year. In the allotments for new buildings and grounds the colored citizens of Washington are given but $252,000 out of a total of $3,750,000, according to the letter of Mr. Thomas. "In the aggregate," writes Mr. Thomas, "the colored schools, already far behind the white in physical equipment due to accumulated shortages in appropriations, will receive but 15% of the appropriation for next year when we are nearly one-third of the school population and attendance." Many needs of the colored schools are emphasized in the letter, and Mr. Madden is called upon to come to the aid of the colored citizens of Washington, who he has in others of the next. A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL LOS ANGELES, CALIF., DECEMBER 31, 1926 Colored Catholics of St. Odilia's To Break Ground For New Church On Sunday, January 2nd, at 3 P.M., ground will be solemnly broken for the new St. Odilia's Church. Impressive ceremonies will mark the event. A short afternoon service will be held in St. Odilia's Chapel, which will be located at a temporary place of worship. At the conclusion of the service the different church societies, the congregation, and the clergy will go in procession to the near by grounds, where the new church will be located. A cross will be erected, the grounds will be blessed and dedicated forever to the saint, and the natius Lissner, L. A. M. who will turn the first showpiece of earth. He will be followed by the incumbent pastor, the officers of the Church societies, and the members of the congregation. The address at the openair service will be made by Father Schlecht. New edifice will be erected on a desirable corner lot at the intersection of Hooper and 53rd St, will be of Spanish Mission design, and will accommodate 400 people. Building operations will be started the first week of January, and it is hoped to complete the church for Easter. St. Odilia's was started on January 10th, 1926, to serve as a bond of solidarity between the Congregation of this city. The congregation is progressive and has grown rapidly, while numerous converts have been received into the church during the past months. Lately a Convent for three Sisters doing settlement work among our people has been provided through the splendid co-operation of all the congregants. Rev. Edmund J. Schlecht, L. A. M., is pastor of St. Odilia's. L. A. Musicians Receive Ovation in New Zealand Wellington, New Zealand, November 28, 1926. THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE, Los Angeles, Calif. Dear Mrs. Bass: We are writing to inform you of the welfare of the Ferris Jazzland Revue. We had quite a nice trip over on the RM. Pacific we were calm and peaceful. Only a few of the young ladies were seasick. It was a pleasant nineteen day journey. There were two sea burials. We stopped at Papeete, capital of Tahiti Island and gave an afternoon performance. We made a barrel of money, which we have yet. We tried to exchange it on our arrival here and found it was worth only a few cents as Tahiti Island is a French and the Frances are considered less than pennies. We are now on our eighth successful week here. The seasons are opposite here from there. November, December and January are the summer months here. We are having unusual weather here for this time of the year, plenty rain and floods. I must say this seems like one big garden, you can ride day in and day out and everywhere you see ferns and various varieties and berries growing wild. The people are very kind and courteous and do everything to impress you that this is the greatest little spot in the world. We wish all friends a Merry Xmas and Happy New Year. The following clipping shows how the Ferris family is liked in New Zealand: "Ferris Jaxland Revue 'An appreciative audience was in attendance at the second and final appearance at night, in the house of the Ferris Jaxland Revue Company. The entertainment, as on the first night, as characterised by its extreme brightness. "There was not a dull moment in the show. The eccentric dancing and clever patter of the performers sat throughout the evening. Old folk and plantation melodies were popular features and popular jaws hits were also provided by the jaws band, who proved themselves to be enchantors of az- HOWDY FRIENDS: Here I am in New York, to my mind, the world's greatest metropolis. It was about the middle of October when I came to New York, and even though I was a little late I immediately went to Columbia University and signed up for Journalism and Public Speaking. Day by day in every course of these courses which I hope will help better prepare me for the work I hope to accomplish in California for the advancement of our people in that section. Among the weak-end visits of interest was first to Newark, N. J., where I visited my sister and brother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. K. Carter and Mrs. M. E. Churchman of East Orange, all of whom took me sightseeing about the places of interest in Newark and East Orange. In November, a company with the Sequi-Centennial at Philadelphia, Penn, and at the close of the second day had not seen everything of interest on the grounds. We first stopped at the Pittsburgh Building which was a mammoth structure and dated back to 1763 showing that even as early as that it was one of the outposts of civilization. Pittsburgh is the home of the Pittsburgh University, the "Brown's" journals; the University of Pittsburgh; Carnegie Institute of Technology; Duquesne University; Pennsylvania College for Women and showed Pittsburgh to be the fifth city of the country in banking record. It was the first iron, steel, glass and Heinz factor es center. We had only to cross the great terrace which landed us into the church of the New Jerusalem where we listened in on a radio program given by one of the largest radios we had ever seen. The church of the New Jerusalem is built on the doctrine of Sodenberg the well-known scientist philosopher we have at Seamen's Church Institute had also on display many far reaching aspects of the religious field it covers. The Philadelphia School of Design had on display many specimens of the art. The next point of interest we visited was the Sequi-Centennial model Post Office. This building was not only the home of the Post Office, but was also a dispensary of free Post Cards of the buildings and activities of the museum. We were gallery running across the four sides of the model Post Office which gave the observer a full view of all operations and machines in action. On display were early postal records, reports, guides, postal motor vehicle service, pneumatic tube for mail transportant, machine making government stamped envelopes, postmarking and canceling machines as well as tools, guns and portraits of notorious criminists and the machinery in modern machinery, and a demonstration of not man, but machine power the most modern in the world. Finding that our time was growing short we decided to scan most of the buildings of minor importance, and thus save time for the points of greatest interest which was the Educational Building, the largest we believe existed in everything going on at the "Sesquil" all the time we had our eyes open for whatever part the Negro was playing in this human drama of past, present and future history of the world's greatest nation, for one hundred and fifty years. Upon entering the Education Building that here was a day of intellectual feasting. Just inside the door was a fountain of information furnished by the National Nursing Organizations, and the American Red Cross, from which one could secure information as to how to secure good health by proper eating, sleeping and exercise. The most important display and books and periodicals containing informations, and records of the best nurse training schools in the country and diagrams of the known diseases that infect the nation today. Pictures of famous health resorts stretching over the nation and the city, and Violet machines, as well as radium treatment for straightening crooked limbs. We also observed, on display, one of the first printing presses put on display of the first country print shops of American type and style. The afternoon of February 25, 1927 will mark the first attempt of a Negro to wing the way from Coast to Coast. Numerous flights have been made across the continent, but "Ace" Foreman will be the first boy of our Race to attempt such a daring undertaking, with him will go his mechanician, Mr. N War from whom he has been teaching the art of "diving" who has a diploma from the American School of Aviation, is said to be an expert airplane mechanic and also a member of the American Society of Experimental engineers. Foreman will follow the mail route via Reno, Salt Lake and Cheyenne where he will have to attain an altitude of 10,000 feet to cross the Green River mountains of Wyoming. This journey is the most dangerous but it is also considered the most dangerous at this time of year because of the heavy snowfall and frequent storms encountered in crossing the Rockies. As to whether Foreman will make the flight successfully, no one knows, but our thoughts and good wishes should be with him, and every Negro in Los Angeles, should be at the field when these boys leave to wish them back and God speed to the first Negro to attempt to fly from California to New York. The Los Angeles branch of the N. A. A. C. P. is arranging to send greetings to the head office in New York, and every person on the field will have the privilege of sending a greeting card to their friend back East. SUE WALTER COHEN FOR TAXES (By: A. N. P.) New Orleans, la., Dec. 27—United States Attorney Wayne G. Borah has filed suit in the federal court to recover taxes and penalties due the collector of internal revenue by Walter L. Cohen, controller of customs, John H. Lowery and B. V. Baranco, officers of the People's Industrial Life Insurance Company which it succeeded. Cohen is head of the company. The company is directed to the action which is directed at enforcing payment of $1,780.61 which remained unpaid when the People's Benevolent Company was dissolved in April, 1922, and its assets divided among Cohen and the other officers and members. The defendants claim that taxes are not owed and that the dissolved company discharged its obligations to the government at the time of its dissolution, the discharged company constituted a trust for the discharge of the federal taxes and that the several persons concerned should be held responsible for the unpaid amount. (By: A. N. P.) The holiday season was on, and the great Pennsylvania-station was filled with hurrying hundreds. In the main waiting room there was a Negro boy, two twins of age by girl, bundled for the weather in a woolen Teddy Bear suit, and esp. the mother was indulgent, and the little youngster walked sinlessly through the waiting room. Sympathetic and cordial smiles and nods greeted her. She stalled beside a drinking fountain. Three chawning and aristocratic girls sat for a drink. One dropped her penny in the slot, got a paper cup, filled it, and turning sweetly to the child said: "Do you wish a drink?" with the question she held a cup of water to the baby lips, and the little one drank eagerly, while the other two looked at her and other oblivious Patting the little one gently on the cheek, she took the same cup, filled it, drank waved a bye-to the baby, joined in by the other two, and went away. Emancipation Celebration Endorsed by Local Organizations Emancipation Celebration Endorsed by Local Organizations Attorney Willis O. Tyler to Speak What promises to be an outstanding feature of the New Year is a Great Emancipation Celebration to be given at the Second Baptist Church, Sunday afternoon, January 2nd, under the auspices of the Second Baptist Brotherhood, which program has been enclosed from most Los Angeles, leading organizations at the University of which is to impress the good of Emancipation and to emphasize the necessity of using it in larger measures. Among other special attractions, Attorney Willis O. Tyler, noted orator, prominent and brilliant attorney, and counsel for the N. A. A. C. P. will be the principal speaker. There will be patriotic hymns, violin and vocal selections, an organ voluntary, an anthem, music by the Second Baptist quartet to the purpose of the Emancipation Proclamation, Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, and brief remarks consistent with the nature and spirit of the eprogram. The public is extended a very special invitation. (By: A. N. P.) Chicago, December 28—According to the indicated intention of Judge John P. McGearty of the Superior Court here, Mrs. Charlotte Simmons, wife of Roscoe Conkling Simmons, nationally known orator and formerly one of the editors of the Chicago Defender, will be granted a divorce from her husband on charges of cruelty and drunkenness. In her bill for divorce, Mrs. Simmons catalogues a number of the usual complaints against her celibated husband, revealing traits of her husband with which the public is not supposed to be acquainted. He is accused of abusing her, striking her, beating her and staging of their home, chasing her out of the home so that she had to seek protection from the neighbors, and jealousy. Mrs. Simmons is the former Charlotte Ebbs, a member of an old line Louisville, Ky., family. She was married to Mr. Simmons Christmas day 1924; the orator is said to have mortgaged his home to give her a $5,000. Her bill has not been answered. Mr. Simmons is not in the city, and it has been impossible to get in touch with him. ELK TREASURER MUST FACE TRIAL (Bv: A. N. P.) Chicago, December 23.—Frank W. Henry, treasurer of Fort Dearborn Elk Lodge, No. 44, was returned here this week from New Orleans, where he was apprehended by Chicago detectives who had sought him after a warrant. He was awarded a prize for alleging embezzlement of the lodge's funds. According to statements mad by James Martin, exalted ruler of the order, Henry has misappropriated $1856 of the lodge funds since last April. Henry, until little more than a year ago, was a partner in the management of the lodge and Henry. Poole moved out and went into business for himself. Henry's establishment was destroyed by fire, but friends, including Martin, aided him in bringing his business together again. MUSICIANS PROGRESSIVE ASSOCIATION ENTERTAINS One of the loveliest parties of the season was the Christmas Musical and dancing party given by the Musician's Progressive Association, Monumental and spaces home of Mr. and Mrs Joe Proper, 762 East Adams St. The musical program which preceded the dancing afforded much enjoyment and novel entertainment from about nine to ten o'clock. Afterwards dancing held away mid-night. Guests of the occasion included members of the organization and friends of the lodge. Hundreds of Mrs. Maude Bousquet-Watson set $2.00 THE YEAR Even the President of the United States seems to have the wrong giant—color complex—when it comes to the consideration of the proper attitude which this government should take toward its citizens. Even he seems to forget that the Constitution of the United States guarantees to all alice is fullest protection. Why should she be designated? Why should the darker baked people be designated and set apart for special legislations? It is law not special legislation which is desired but the enforcement of the law or laws which guarantees that protection. The crime of lynching is not only lawless but it breeds a disregard for constituted authority and undermines the stability of the government. It matters not what the racial connection of the people of the United States that a law has been violated should be sufficient to cause the arm of the law to reach out, grasp and punish the violator. While it is a fact that the majority of the mob victims are Colored citizens and that there seems, in some sections of the country, to be manifestations of racial hatreds, the anti-lynching bill was designed to punish the persons who indulged in those actions. The police are also angry. No special legislation is sought by the Colored citizen of the United States. He does not want to be set as 'de for any special privilege. Having played his part in founding, preserving and maintaining the sovereignty of the government under which he lives he only asks that government be held accountable for the same rights recorded every other citizen, and the laws granting those rights be strictly enforced. The President must be congratulated in omitting one of the stock phrases so much used: "Social Equality" That much abused slogan has at last, let us hope, become complete where the colored race in the United States is represented. 0-00-0 This is a day that calls for trained men and women to fill the professions and make successes in the marts of trade. The intricate machinery of business, especially, calls for training that will strengthen character; promote honesty, and make for efficiency. Without these there will appear the man who tries to win by his wits, the man who sabotages by his stupefying of generalities, and then, at last, when the light of publicity begins to show the shallowness of their pretensions, fades from the picture like the mist before the bright rays of the sun. Often they leave behind them a trail of broken trusts that cause no end of sorrow. Broken homes; penniless widows and sorrowing maids; all those to do that for which you have made no preparation. "Be yourself." It's a wonderful saying. Often when you are, thinking that you fool the public you are but fooling yourself, and with disastrous results which lead either to a prison cell or an untimely grave. The Hon. Senator from South Carolina, Cole Blease, has a case of "Righteous Indignation." He accesses the senators electors, Smith of Ill. Vara of Penn, Gould of Maine of being illegally elected to that body and says that Senator Peper of Penn, should be kicked out of the senate. Did one ever hear of such rank blatant ranting? How did the senator from Palmetto State some of those inable to understand the importance of "Wensels"—break into that august body? Can be, or of any of the men who represent a southern constituency say that they have been legally elected? What about the hundreds of thousands who are not, because of their race, allowed the right to vote? Surely the representatives from that section of the United States cannot be guilty of injustice in their two-thirds of the citizens which they represent are curiously kept from voting. If the senatorial boot should be applied it could and no better mark than the senatorial seats of Cole Blease and his collar. Blease is one of the demagogical foes of justice who becloud the real justice who becloud the real equality is their most effective slogan in creating racial antagonism. They seek to place a barrier in the path of every effort made to create a more thorough understanding. They prate of national loyalty and patriotism while openly breaking the law and flaunting their defiance in the face of the Constitution, and being led by the Constitution, the United States. It will be well for the Senate to investigate who shall sit in the seats of the righteous, they will and many whose claims to immunity will be forfeited and commissions issued with fraud.

JONES Pastor, Church, The Church 54th St. and Heaven THE KING'S SEAL "For the writing which is written in the King's name and sealed with the King's seal, may no man reverse." When the Jews were allowed by King Cyrus the Persian to return to their own land and rebuild their temple and their capital city, quite a number of them remained in the land of Babylon and Persia because they were doing well. Some also because they were too poor to get for the distance they had to travel, but hardship on the sand, and a long time after they got there. The harder spirits of men are pioneer of the rest must be forced, or they follow on when the pioneers have made things easier for them. They then have to work harder and more things are not altogether to their liking. But the Jews were reminded among the Perians after the proclamation of emancipation were their kin in all ages, entertaining. They followed the seat of empire from Babylon to Shuhan, or Suslana. Here they were opposed and plotted against by an Amoholite, one of their ancient enemies, named Haman, the Argentei, who being of royal lineage, had attained unto a high standing in court. Hall the Pews have always been the sons and daughters of the Amoholites, whose ancestors in which they have lived. We find Ezekiel as queen and Margaret her cousin dinging at the King's gate.

Either receiving this favor, made successful intercession for her people so that Haman was hanged on the gallowts he had prepared for Mordecai and Aaron, or by royal decrees to fight for themselves, knowing that the King was with them—though according to the law of the Medes and Persians, he had reverse his decrees which had been issued by Haman, using the King's ring. QUALITY SERVICE YOUR HEALTH IS YOUR GREATEST ASSET OUR YEARS OF SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS. HAVE BEEN BUILT UPON Quality AND STERLING SERVICE. YOU WANT THE BEST. It is the story of the King's change of attitude toward the Jews through the intercession of Ether that is told in our text. But the spiritual lesson set forth therein is "plain to him that it is the natural mind and understanding hearts. In this wonderful and striking lesson of history the plan of salvation is beautifully and encouragingly pictured. The King represented our heavenly King, Haman represented Satan, Mordecai was a type of Christian of the age. The writing of the King's scriptures. The word of God is forever ested in heaven and unchangeable. If the Bible said it, it is so. It cannot be added to nor taken from Ps. 119, Prov. 30:5, 6, Hcv. 23:18, 19. But also the Christian himself is an epistle known and read of all men. 2 Cor. 3:1-5. As surely as the Holy God of Israel wrote the ten commandments, he writes the law of Christ in the Christian heart and life. Men who wish can find fault with the Bible, but they cannot change it. So with the true believer. He is God's unchangeable, irreversible epistle—the light of the world, the salt of the earth, the heaviest of the diving adventure. Written in the King's name—cannot be revered. Praise God for it. Amen. New one thing more. It must be sealed with the King's ring. "That ring represents the Holy Ghost, the seal of the covenant of promise. "In whom after ye believed ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise." Eph. 1:12, 13. "And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God in whom ye were sealed unto the day of redemption." Eph. 4:30.

Walk by the Spirit and ye shall not fail the lusts of the flesh." Gal. 515-26. Written and sealed, the whole thing a divine work. The King's name—the King's ring. That makes the King about all of it. The King carries the power of the government with it. Your salvation in a divine thing. It is given from God and sustained by the Almighty. Don't be unasy. No man can reverse the King's decree.

Hospital at Portland, Oregon and Tacoma, Washington at different times, also at Sawtelle in the hospital section. I applied at the Red Cross and the American Legion for help, also the D. A. V. But they would not assist me. But some white men came in and were given $15.00 a piece by the Red Cross. When I asked for $5.00 they gave me nothing at all. I was overseas 26 months, was shot 4 times, am sick now, and am really in need of help. 5% If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened The organizations I mentioned above receive their money from the Community Chest and is supposed to be in their ex-secretaries, and they do not aid the colored soldiers. I make this appeal to my people so that you might know that these organizations show partiality to such an extent as to flatly refuse to help colored men who have every claim to their assistance. Yet when soliciting they claim to help anyone whose condition is made known to them and is needful. C. C. SMITH. EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION TO BE FEATURE OF NEW YEAR The Emancipation program to be given at the Second Baptist Church Sunday afternoon, January 2nd, 1927, under the auspices of the Second Bap- tist Brotherhood, which program has received the endorsement of many leading local organizations, promises to be an $ special feature of the New Year. Mr. Willis O. Tyler, prominent and brilliant local attorney, has been secured as a principal speaker, and this, in company with other expressions and attended by musical selections from some Los Angeles' most popular artists, will make a program significant in itself, even disregarding the worthy cause of Emancipation for which it is to be given. Further details will be announced later. But that the date, Sunday afternoon, January 2nd, 1927, may be reserved, we come now to forecast the occasion. Fred W. Lucas, Furlong Tract, Passed Away Fred W. Lucas, Furlong Tract, Passed Away In some manner the article which gave an account of the death of Freed W. Lucas, prominent, in political circles, and as a real estate dealer, was omitted from our previous issue. Mr. Lucas passed away after a brief illness at his home in the Furlong Tract. It seems that he contracted too deep a cold while investigating some mining properties in the northern section of the state, the cold developed into double pneumonia resulting in his death on December 1th. Mr. Lucas leaves a widow, a sister, Mrs. Mattie Lucas Henson, 1041 2ast 29th Street, and a host of friends who mourn his loss. Reception For Captain William Glenn Reception For Captain William Glenn PRESS WILL GIVE MONSTER RECEPTION HONORING CAPT. WILLIAM GLENN, RETIRED POLICE OFFICER Arrangements are being made by the combined Press of our city, consisting of the Californian Eagle, New Age-Dispatch, and Pacific Defender to give it captain William Glenn, who retired on the 31st inst. after 25 years of service on the Los Angeles police force, retiring as Captain of detectives—a monster banquet. The Colored Press of Los Angeles as stated above believes that in doing honor for this accomplishment we but compliment ourselves. The reception will be given at the Bronx Hall, Tuesday evening, January 1th, to which the public will be invited. Full details of this epoch making event will appear in our next issue. The Press invites the co-operation of all the people to make this occasion what it should be. Mr. and Mrs. Thos Pursley of Monrovia were host and hostess to eight of their friends at an elaborately appointed dinner party Sunday, December 26th. The food was excellent and enjoyed to the highest. The guests were entertained with music after dinner and when making their departure extended New Year Greetings and thanks to their host and hostess. SHOW CASES, COUNTERS, SHINE STAND, MADE TO ORDEK MODERN SPRAY PAINTING AND ENAMELING EXPERT FURNITURE REPAIRING Aiken, S. C. Again in Limelight With "Miscegenation" Case (By: A. N. P.) New York, Dec. 17.—The lynching community of Aiken, South Carolina is again in the limelight with a "miscegenation" case, according to information reaching the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth Avenue. White people in the community between the towns of Windsor and White Pond have threatened "trouble" to a young married couple if they try to live in their home because the young husband, Arthur Monday, is accused of having colored blood. Monday was arrested after his marriage, charged with "posing as a white man" and later released in $1,000 bond. A local newspaper reports: "Munday gave bond and is now at liberty, but it is understood that he has been plainly told by citizens of the community that if he should undertake to return there with his wife there would be trouble. "The crime of miscegenation, charged against him is severely dealt with under the laws of this State, a penalty being fixed of from not less than 12 months and a fine of $500 to ten years and a fine of from $2,000 to $3,000 upon conviction. This is to prevent intermarriage between the races. "The woman in the case is said to be crushed by the charges that have been brought and the developments following her marriage." Mr. and Mrs. Jno. Hunt of Glassell street entertained with a sumptuous Christmas dinner, having as their guests, Mr. and Mrs. P. L. Mendows, Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Van Norton and their children, the Misses Therea, Bernice, Masters Charles and Harold. Thoe oro scheme was red and green and the centerpiece was a large bouquet of poinsettas. Mr. Mendows was delightfully surprised to find an elegant gold watch, a gift from his wife, in his plate. Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Allen of 1553 East 33rd Street, entertained a family reunion with a seven course dinner Saturday, December 25, 1926. Their house was beautifully decorated with holly mistletoe. After dinner Mr. Alton Bodd, son of Mrs. Elvira Allen, played Santa Claus by presenting the family of over 100 gifts from the Christmas tree. The members of the family present were: Mr. J. S. Mallett, Ella and Harry Mallett; Mrs. Daniel Webster, Vivian, Dorothy and Geraldine Webster; Mrs. J. A. Stafford and son, Harold; Mr. and Mrs. A. Williams and their five children; Mr. and Mrs. Stana-laws, and their three children; Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Allen, and son, Alton Bodd and Laura Webster, niece of Mrs. Allen from New Orleans, La.; Mrs. Mossitt, Kansas City; Mrs. A. Hightower, sister of Mrs. Allen and Harold Clark. Each member of the family left for their homes. OWNERSHIP, MANAGEMENT, CIRCULATION, ETC.

Out of his many birthday celebrations,’ there are none ta, be wemembered as the one just passed. j To the younger sét a birthday is an event to celbate and rejoice over, bat Mr. Maddox was looking at, his with a différent significance, it’ re- minded him that he was one year nearer the en. In. youth, one «oes not dwell on upon this thought, but rather upon what the bright future has in store. But when Mr. Maddox feturned home in the evening from the Ameri- can Express Company's office, his Place of employmed, his thoughtful and beloved wife had invited about fifty guests, the house had afl-been arranged, the guests all seated and the: lights all out, he rang the door- befl, his little, kind wife hurried and opened th edoor, he walked in and in- stead of grecting her as usual he asked why the lights were not turn- ed on, she harried and pushed on the lights, and to his surprise and de- light,’ his nfapy, many friends were all seated as’thick as could be around the room, with the center table laden with nice presents presented in token of their Weep appreciation to. him on his birthday celebration, Mr.: Mad- fox lost his speech for a whip, dl he has never beén able to thank his many friends for such ‘a wonderful surprise. After his birthday celebra- ion has passed, he feels much soe ar than before, just to know that he had so many friends. Mr. Maddox takes this method to express his sincere thanks and. deep appreciation to every one who took a part in this gréat surprise. - We desire.‘to express to. -all our slients and friends a very Merry Chirstmas and. a most Ranpy and prosperous New Year. We want you to know that each salesman antl employee joins with ig: in extending this greeting to you.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 31, 1926 TO MY READERS I have always wanted to meet the man that invented two big holidays within a week of each other. New Year's is the greatest holiday in the world for an alibi; for instance, you receive a Xmas card from some friend that you have entirely forgotten, all you have to do is, to return the compliment on New Year's and everything is hotly totsy. Xmas week all the big people and great big people told you through the columns of this wonderful paper about their work, ambitions and many other things which were of vital importance to the community at large; I do not believe I have read a finer article with so much constructive advice, then the one written by our Hon. Policewoman Georga' A. Robinson. The sentiments and desires of Chief of Police Jas. E. Davis, shows an appeal for co-operation which cannot be denied as without prejudice, while our friend Capt. L. L. McClary stands out clearly for equal rights as far as the law is concerned. This has not only been shown to us, but proven in his past administration at the Newton Street Police Station. We might mention a good word for the splendid record achieved by our Fire Department, the only one of our race in the city. Our Newton Street Detective force is without equal in any city. Our Sports writer on the Eagle staff, Mr. Harry Levette has made wonderful progress during the short period he has been connected with it, always furnishing us with the latest in clean sports and ever ready to give a helping hand to some athlete who is striving to attain honors in the sporting world. Our editor, Mr. Bass is ever ready to fight to the last ditch for the equal rights of his people, a fearless leader at all times; he has been especially liberal in giving the railroad men a column in his paper in which to express their views. This week, which is the beginning of 365 more days of misery or pleasure, or what have you? the editor has requested the Eagle staff to gas the public with a few ines of their own particuar ine, and as I am about the smallest fish on the Eagle staff, it is my earnest desire to give the public first hand information about the Railroad man. The great value of the railroad man in many instances is underestimated. The railroad man of today is not the same care-free, spend-thrift type which you came in contact with 20 years ago; he is thrifty, economical, progressive, and considerate. He has learned to invest his money wisely in business and real estate, he has profited by his older brothers experience, with the result that he is now classed as the highest type of citizen. His reliability is no longer questioned and considered a risk in years gone by, but to the contrary, his patronage is earnestly solicited by all those who are striving through competition for greater business. Society columns would not be complete without the mention of him as a guest to this social function and that social function. He is considered the back-bone of an economical epidemic that has recently struck the Negro race throughout the country. His financial support is a big factor to the various church, Y.M. A's. Cleared Insurance Companies and banking institutions. In fact, I might venture so far as to say that the Railroad Man is connected with three-fourths of the Black American industries of this country. For instance, if the Railroad Man should withdraw his financial support from Central avenue, which is the nucleus of colored business in this city, you would witness a marked depression within a few days. He is always a willing and cheerful giver to charity. His traveling experiences enable him to discuss intelligently on most any topic and with authority. But does he receive the support that he gives? Pastors of churches should have at the very least one Sunday set aside a month as a Railroad Man's day; instruct their congregation to come in closer contact with him, charge each member to bring a Railroad Man along with them to church on that particular Sunday, for he of a different town in a strange city is confronted with many evils which the coming year of 1927 with new fast train service established, putting us five hours closer to Chicago and the East, this in itself should have a tendency to inspire us as a forerunner to the prosperity that this city shall derive from the same; the Railroad Man and Woman shall play an important part on this program, without his courtesy, good service, honesty and reliability it cannot be a success. The migration of Eastern, capital, and Eastern tourist would soon get discouraged from coming here if they had to contend with an inferior class of railroad men. He is a cog in the great wheel of progress and prosperity for the year of 1927. May he continue the good work that he had accomplished during the year of 1926. Wishing the Railroad Man and his Family and the Readers of this, the Railroad Clatter, a most Happy New Year and hoping you had a still greater Xmas, I remain. Your humble servant, CHAS. L. UPTON. All news in this week will appear in next week's issue. Don't fail to hear Raemundo Marquez, nine-year old prodigy in Piano Recital at Eighth and Towne Church, Tuesday, Jan. 18, 1927. If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened New York, Dec. 23—That Christianity is losing ground among the Indians of the East is attested by recent accounts of the restoration of 10,000 Indian Christians to the Hindu faith in one day at a recent ceremony. Several Swamis of the Hindu missions are said to have united for the purpose, while local preachers and officials worked day and night for two days to assure the success of the ceremonies. The movement to win back Hindus who have turned Christian is gaining ground, according to these reports. The Hindu Sabha organization to combat Christianity's spread started some years ago to bring back Hindus. In the Moplah riots in 1920 thousands-of Hindus were forced to embrace Mohammedanism. Mohammedanism is having the same success all over North Africa, and is spreading south, according to the reports of missionaries over there. They claim that Christianity now has its back to the wall, its enemy now being, not paganism, but another powerful religion in which the native finds greater solace, and whose emissaries open him up to less oppression. The Christian trader following the Christian missionary has been the bane of the native. Hide Pennsylvania Suspects From Mob Media, Pa., Dec. 28. After warnings had been sent to Gov. Pinchot that trouble might arise, Ollie Strickland, alleged confessed killer of a young white woman, and Amos Wilson and Walter Webb, condemned to die for the murder of a white man, were removed by an order of Judge W. Roger Fronefield from the Delaware County jail to the Eastern penitentiary in Philadelphia. Posses of whit farmers were said to have been threatening the jail. The district attorney sought to prevent the removal of the last two men, fearing that such an action would jeopardize the chance of exacting the penalty which has been imposed upon them.

THE CALIFORNIA THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE (By: A. N. P.) (By: A. N. P.) TELLS SOUTH TO LET THE NORTH ALONE (By: A. N. P.) Washington, Dec. 23.—Southern Democrats who oppose modification of the Volstead Act are advised in a letter to the Thomas Jefferson League to remember what the South did to nullify the spirit of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments in taking the ballot away from the Negro. The letter was written by L. A. Whipple, an attorney of Cochran, Ga. It is Mr. Whipple's belief that the North should be let alone to nullify the spirit of the Eighteenth Amendment so long as the South is permitted to laugh at the Fourteenth and Fifth. Otherwise, he argues, something may happen to make the South change its position. Driver Held For Killing Officer of the Law (By: A. N. P.)

We dined Christmas breakfast at the home of our office foreman and it was indeed among our best experiences at the thoughtfulness and intuition of his good wife of what was just the right menu to set forth. Had we ordered it ourselves with a four days' warning no breakfast which we have ever ate could excell the one prepared on Xmas day by Mrs. D. H. Hamilton, one of our very lovely and esteemed matrons, who in a quiet and unostentatious manner with comfort and all the necessities live in their neat little home with little Miss Hamilton on East Adams Street. This courtesy is one of the bright spots of a very strenuous year. The next day we were again so fortunate as to get there late but in time to a great feast at the home of our good friends Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Sanders, and the huge bird which these good people had prepared began to diminish, even though we were far unequal to the task of making the job one hundred per cent. With graciousness of manner Mrs. Sanders prepared and Mr. Sanders served, and truly the spirit of hospitality, and good will reigned supreme. We were taken on memory's wings way back to school days when we attended the same school and marveled that time in its flight even though thousands of miles distant had provided this feast in the home of the schoolmate of long ago. These two happenings, while in a manner are wholly personal, our pen could not resist the true spirit of real democracy, good will and true fellowship, which guards us in this editorial comment.

INSPIRATION all the emphasis on the value of an e-书 far as education without inspiration you include inspiration as an element by-products can you rate education ab- There are educated men, well read a- e of little value to themselves or so- that divine spark of inspiration which without which education can not woe To put all the emphasis on the value of an education is a mistake in so far as education without inspiration is valueless. Only when you include inspiration as an element of education or one of its by-products can you rate education above all other advantages. There are educated men, well read and intelligent men who are of little value to themselves or society because they have not that divine spark of inspiration which puts education to work without which education can not work. Education comes to man through reading, talking and thinking. Inspiration comes with it through the right kind of reading, the right kind of conversation and the deep and profound sort of thought. In other words, some literature conveys book learning and other literature proposes only to inspire the reader, to lift him out of his work-a-day stupor. Unknown to many, the human mind, by proper impetus, is capable of kindling the divine spark of inspiration. There are many workmen who are stirring their creative ambitions by daily meditation on the ideals of their occupation and upon the vast possibilities lying dormant in their field of labor. No man ever suffered by imagining his job bigger than it really was. Of such imaginings is inspiration made. Inspiration hitched up to education or just plain knowledge is making men, communities, nations, business enterprises and all the great inventive, industrial and commercial marvels of the twentieth century. "There can be no great and lasting work without inspiration," wrote Emerson. Anybody ever hear a flapper sing "Home, Sweet Home?" Granddad may have been a sod buster, but not on the golf links. That big hole in the family budget is where the turkey went through. Who remembers when a girl with an unattractive face had to let it go at that? Among the many interesting visitors of the Ministers' Meeting and of the many fine, wholesome, helpful speeches that were made before that body of world leaders and guardians of civilization we refer to a few of the things that were said by Captain L. L. McClary of the Newton street station. It was not the many words of the Captain that moved this body of Christian watchmen to endorse the programme of Captain McClary, but it was the soul of the man and the principles that actuate that soul and his express purpose of making these principles a living reality. The Captain who believes in Jesus Christ as the San of God and who knows Him as a personal Savior, should find a place in our programme of life, that each man will be his best only in so far as he subscribes to these ideals. He believes that: a better understanding and closer relationship between the Church and the Courts of Justice is necessary and will be better-for all concerned. Therefore he appealed for ministerial co-operation. EXTRACTS FROM SPEECH Captain McClary said that, he "appealed to the ministry to cooperate with the law enforcement agents for the protection of our homes, our community and our country". He said that he "wanted to get the Christian spirit into the Law enforcement Department; that a man who loved God, Home and Country would make a good officer of the law". In his version on Race Prejudice the Captain said that "he was aware of the fact that there still existed a lot of Race Prejudice" this he termed as mental prejudice and a lot of it was directed against the Colored People, but he said that Race prejudice can never be overcome by force because it is a disease of the mind and cannot be reached by force; but in the face of a high, spiritual, moral and mental preparation, prejudice will fade away. He stated with delight that the most of the men who worked under him were giving a portion of their time to study, many of them going to night school. With him KNOWLEDGE IS POWER. The Captain paid a high tribute to the Progress of the race during their sixty years of freedom. He admonished the Race not to be discouraged, stating that it had had less than a hundred years of free mingling with men and affairs; that a hundred years was too soon to conclude your judgment of a Race. He called attention to the hundreds of years the Roman Empire was in its making; the building of the English Government; and the making of our own country, America; concluding by saying that, "The Race has done remarkably well, take our courage and buckle down to your books and you will win". I. ALBERT MOORE, Secretary. TO CO-OWNERS OF THE MISSOU RI GROUP OF MINING CLAIMS One and All: Mr. G. W. Miller, of Tucson, Arizona, wishes to give out the following information as to the activities in and about the Mining camp in the Comobab Mountains. Viz. That on account of new discoveries of Ore and water on the GREAT BLOW OUTS PROPERTY, we have decided to move to camp in about 10 days from the present location, to the above named property, a distance of about three fourths of a mile. It will be a great saving of time and expense of hauling water as we are now doing. On the property.where we are now sinking a shaft we have Thousands of tons of Milling Ore on the dump and in sight. A large part of it will sort at $50 a top. On the GREAT BLOW OUTS PROPERTY where we are moving to in a few days, and where we are to place our Mill as soon as we can make the necessary arrangements, there is an ore body 100 feet wide, and a big part of it, shoved up from 30 to 60 feet in sight. About a third of this body will sort at $50 a ton with the other two thirds giving lesser gradations down to $5 and $3 a ton. Thus we will get our richer ores down around 60 and 90 feet. Preparations are now being made to borrow $25,000 with which to secure our Mill and meet some other obligations. This we hope to accomplish by the first of February, and from then on will be our struggle to pay off in May. The Miller family has now grown to nine persons. There being eight men and one woman, all of whom are from the East, making the trip over land by auto. We are expecting an addition of a man and wife from El Paso, Texas, the man, a blacksmith and mechanic. Mr. Miller wishes to say to all, that our delay was on account of the slow coming in of the money, but that from now on we are to be in a position to drive them to the pay off strong. Robert G. Lamar's remarkable showing in his stellar work for the holiday number of the 'Soaring M. Robert G. Lamar Eagle" has gained him the permanent position as Advertising Manager for this publication. While the occasion mentioned was not by any means Mr. Lamar's first activity along advertising lines for us, it was his most concentrated, and more time was given to the effort. In this situation our patrons were much pleased and as we seek at all times to give patrons the very best, it necessarily follows that we were highly pleased. Therefore, starting the New Year Mr. Lamar will fill the position spoken on above. We bespeak for him the courtesies which go with this position and a due consideration for his cause. J. B. BASS, Editor. THE CLATTER KING We indeed appreciate the real worth and sacrifice of time and effort as demonstrated by Chas. L. Upton, who edits our Railroad Clatter column, which appears each week in this publication. Few people realize what it Chas. L. Upton means for a busy man to gather the items as does Mr. Upton without failing a single issue during the year. He does this not for his own edification, but that he might contribute his mite for progress and to please the public. Railroad Clatter is well and neatly edited, it has gained such headway that not only the railroad men but all readers each week are eager to scan Upton's column.

Did Rickard Know Walker Would be Middle Champion It seems funny but Tex Riekard had already made preparations to stage Mickey Walker against some contender for his crown before he had even received the gift from referee Benny Younger. He is also bucking Jack Fugley for two other fighters. Walker, once holder of the weltersweight title, became middleweight champion through a questionable decision over Tiger Flowers in Chicago on Friday. Roberts scored a stunning one-round knockout of Joe Dandee, "the uncrowned weltersweight champion on Saturday" at the WBC, Wallace as a result of his knockout in Cleveland) of Louis Kid Kaplin, who recently relinquished his featherweight title without being defeated.

Dick Donald is full of smiles with prospects of a big season starting with the Tiger Flowers-Lomski Mack House-Kilrain match next month, at Wrigley Field. A. TY CORB Great ball payer included with Tris Speaker in big base ball scandal. (By courtesy of Los Angeles Examiner.) At The Suzanne Lenglen- Mary Browne Tennis Match Who said it took a fight or a football game to draw a crowd? At the Olympia. Auditorium, Tuesday night, December 28th the streets, sidewalks, aisles, doors and auto parks crowded and still they come. Here comes the celebrities now! Movie stars from Hollywood; the patrons stationed at the front form a lane for them to pass in as they drive up to the front of the great building in the glare of the bright lights. Authors, scenario0 writers, directors, owners, magnates, famous golfers, bankers, brokers, merchants, excited school girls, big butter and egg men, all out to see the little girl who has made a great name for herself than any tennis champion yet. A craning of heeks, a stir at the dressing room entrance and on to the smooth, green, brightly lighted court trips Suzanne like a ballet dancer. Such daunting like driven from our far corner to the other, far corner; such vauleying close up to the net; now leaping high in the air to pick out a lofty one, now almost dying to catch a far low one, an inch from the floor and low whip it sizzling back across the net. Such vigor and vitality the perfect picture of mount health. And such fighting spirit. No wonder the French soldiers hold back the invaders so long if that is in the national vitality and spirit. And the rounds of applause that met each of her wondrous plays. Truly she was all that the press of the world has said of her. With the rest of the brilliant troops she has gone to San Antonio, Texas to play Sunday in the big auditorium there. Where are all our rare tennis players and fans? It seems they are compulsions by their absence. It did not show much real interest in the sport or much appreciation of the fact that they were simultaneously welcome. Did we make a false statement when we told Mr. Pine and his manager, Mr. Plehna, that our race people were highly interested in tennis? MAIN ST. A. C.

"Sweet Baby" Dorothy Williams Billy McClaim Opens Big Theatre Ever heard of Billy McClain? Of course you have. Producer of the original Smart Set, big time star in the palmy minstrel set, globe trotter, flight manager, trainer, and fight promoter. A man who carried Sam McVey to Australia and who presented Langford and McVey to the crowned heads of Europe. That's Billy McClain, only a lot more beside. He is now unopportun to the McClain Theatre at 376-780 WillHand St, Buffalo, which great pleasure palace formerly the Crescent, was opened on December 13th with Dudley's Dauntown Frolics. All of the city officials and the elite of the city were on hand, and a good start was made for an suspicious season. Billy knows more about the show business than the average amusement impressario is lucky enough to know and is sure to make a big success. On our desk is a letter just received from him sending regards to the Spikes Broe, Reginald Ski, Bully Smith, Editor Baas and all other friends. In another issue we will tell some interesting anecdotes of Billy's career that reads like a novel. On December 15th, at St. Louis, Mo. a special meeting of the Board of Directors was held, with Dr. C. B. Key, acting president, and owners Steve Pierce of Detroit, John Schorling, Chicago; J. L. Wilkinson, Kansas City; L. A. Brown, and R'chard Dent; St. Louis; Warnes Jewell, Indianapolis; Q. J. G'more, secretary of the league presided at the books. Among the several changes made were the accepting the application of the Dallas, Texas Yellow Jackets, as an associate member. It's a crack seam and will give a good account of itself. Much of the business transacted can not be made public at this t me until after the annual session at Detroit which will be on January 11, 12, 13, 1927. Three new baseball cities will be added two of which have taken the Cleveland and Dayton franchises over and all the teams will be well balanced and evenly matched, the Cuban stars bringing over the strongest team that ever left the island including the great Montabro. Several of the teams will go south for the spring training The Royal Giants finishing out the winter league here. End of Year Sees Four Surpass Grange Red Grange, the galloping ghost, had his yardage record of 1017 beaten by four other football stars this year. Welch of the Pitt Panthers set the high mark of the year, and also the new record with 1190 yards. Manuel Laraneta of the University of Southern California was close behind with 1166 yards. Morton Kaen, his teammate on the Trojans, gained 1121 yards for the season, and Charles Rogers of Pennsylvania made an even 100. Close behind the Grange record were Donohoe of Carnegie, with 968 yards; "Cotton" Wilcox of Purdue with 967, and Herb Joesting of Minnesota with 962. Well Folks, the match between Suzanne Lenglen, French tennis player, and Mary Brown, local star, at Olympic Auditorium, was a never-to-be-forgettable though Suzanne was going to have a difficult time in defeating Mary Brown, but it took only a short while to convince the 8,000 fans present differently. Suzanne outplayed Mary in every minute of the game allowing her to score only one game which happened in the last set. The final score was 6-0 and 6-1. The tennis fans were carried away with the marvelous playing of this French girl. It is too bad that our own Juliette so closely missed having a match with Suzanne. In the mixed doubles match, which followed the main match, Mary Brown partnered with Harvey Snodgrass, defeated Suzanne and her partner, Paul Feret in a hard fought three-set match score being 8-6, 6-3 and 6-3. The crowd was astounded by the ability of Suzanne to outvolley the men. We are only too sorry that more of our race girls were not present to view these unusual matches. We only hope that in the near future we will have developed such race girl stars, who will be given the chance to perform before a similar group and numbers of spectators. The girls are beginning to practice now for the various games such as basketball and baseball. The Girl Reserves have a very active basket ball team with such outstanding players as the Misses Hazel Thomas, and Euvilda Rang. The Girl Reserve basket ball team last year was to have played the team of the Girl Reserves of Oakland, but unfortunately did not get to have the game. We certainly hope that it will be possible to have it this year. Well girls competition is still desired, so organize a basket ball, base ball, or football team.

Maybe that doesn't mean anything much now, but after he makes his bow to the public Saturday night at the Main Street A. C., it may mean a whole lot. If he lives up to the big scrap book he brought with him he will cut a swab through the ranks of the best welterweight boys here till it looks like a reaper had passed. He starts against Dick Green, the tough Long Beach slugger and if he gets by him he will be sent against some of the beat the city holds. In the insert above is shown Mrs. Jenkins, who holds the unique position of wife, and the manager she it may be assured that needs fear nothing from misleading. Glancing hurriedly down, the line just before going to press we find that in Danver, Pueblo, Boulder, El Paso and other boring centres, Jenkins has met such men as Stanley "Soakem" Yoakum, Gussie Weiner, Mike Ryan, Billy Fisher, Joe Marks, Joe Dunn, Buster Logwood, Jack Doyle, Hi Gill, Sally Kronick, Al Wolgast, Imey Garfinkle, and many others. Olympic Matches Surprise Fighters For Tuesday Night Matchmaker Joe Levy has pitted two men against each other in next Tuesday's 10 round main bout at the Olympic Auditorium who have sprung real surprises on the public this season. They are Johnny Adams, the mountain lion of San Berdoo, who surprised everybody by beating the "Killer" Tommy O'Brien and Harry Kid Brown, who surprised them still more by winning over Baby Joe Gams. These two at 187 pounds and evenly matched as to build will be a real treat as they both game, hard hitts and anxious to hold the prestige they have gained. The other bouts include Billy Harma vs. Billy Akinson, six rounds, 158 pounds; Don Levy vs. Jimmy Hackley, six rounds, 182 pounds; Willy Brown vs. Dick DeHoog, four rounds, 122 pounds; Ted Lawn vs. Manuel Prave, four rounds.

He never failed to see the young housewife received her side or that the young business owner had him pressed into Sporting Section, and when Christmas morning dawned, and the w was a busy place, old Phillip w J Has taught successfully in L.

If you have tried others and did not progress, don't get discouraged and think that you can't learn you quickly how to play. I had dined that evening with my friend Wheaton, a successful attorney, at his beautiful home. We had been friends for a number of years and, on rare occasions, I had accepted some of his many invitations to dinner. On this rather chilly November evening, I had found Wheaton alone. Mrs. Wheaton and her two daughters had gone out to play bridge. Gamble for prizes, as Wheaton expressed it. When we had finished our coffee, Wheaton led me to a most comfortably furnished living room. A wood fire crackled in the large open fireplace. We drew our chairs, two great overstuffed rockers, nearer its cheery blaze, lighted our cigars and proceeded to enjoy each other's company. Having touched on the different topics of the day, Wheaton took a copy of the Chicago Defender from the library table and remarked: "This Rhinelander-Jones marriage seems to have created quite a stir all over the country." Lnodded. "If, continued Wheaton, it were anything new, I should take no notice of the continued flurry of comment. As it was so in the beginning, is now, and presumably ever shall be, world without end, why worry?" He paused for a moment. "Now, continued he, just how many of our most distinguished and wealthy families of this country, and more especially those of the South, can be absolutely certain that they are pure Caucasian." Wheaton again turned to the table and picking up another paper read this extract from one of its articles: "Henry S. Holt of the Rockbridge Circuit Court, (Virginia) **** pointed out that in twenty-five generations every person had thirty-two million grandfathers, not to speak of grand-mothers; and that in his own case he could not prove the absence of other than Caucasian blood in his ancestry." After a long draw at his havana, Wheaton slowly exhaled its fragrance. I sank deeper into the cushions, and waited in silence noting his half-closed eyes. My friend had grown reminiscent and I felt certain that he was about to relate some past experience, which would indeed be well worth the listening. Slowly Wheaton arose, put some wood on the fire, resumed his chair and leaning forward addressed me. "Doug, my grandfather told me of a case that happened in his birthplace, the parallel of which I wager one finds but once in a life time." For more than two hours he talked. I asked no questions during that time, so absorbed was I in the story. At eleven o'clock I bade my host goodnight. Having reached my room I sank into "old comfort," what irony. The old rocker was as a park bench compared with Wheaton's overstuffed. I could not sleep, although a-bed later than usual. I thought to read myself to sleep, and taking the December issue of the Crisis from my reading table turned to page fifty-nine. I was soon absorbed in the "Marked Tree." When I had finished Part I, found myself regretting that the story had not been completed in that issue. I continued to-read, and on page seventy-eight read read Mark Seybolt's article, became further interested and resolved to write the story told by Wheaton's grandfather, a slave, embellish it in that style peculiar to myself, rename the characters, but leave the facts unchanged. For want of a better name I shall call it. DEFIANCE. Not only the dog, but the characters through and through breathe defiance. * * God! What a night it had been. Death everywhere. Death in the great white mansion on the knoll. Death at the little cabin in the quarters. Death in the cane brake. A night of battle, murder, and sudden death.

Mammy nodded in the chimney corner, her grief well nigh spent. Upstairs, her master, Melville Gradley lay dead, a bullet in his brain. Shot by an unknown assassin in the canebrake. His young wife lay in the pink and blue chamber, a newborn infant at her side. Grief-stricken, Mammy downstairs was aroused from momentary sleep by the opening of a door. A girl crept into the kitchen, her brown face paled to a greenish hue, her cheeks wet with tears. She laid a bundle, wrapped in an old shawl, in Mammy's lap, sank on the floor and sobbed out: A FULL LINE OF DRY GOODS Novelties - Ready-To-Wear - Hosiery - Toys Xmas Boxes, Etc.

At daybreak a tired, trembling, old woman climbed the stairs to her mistress room. In her arms, wrapped in white flannel, an infant stirred, then wailed feebly. Lou took the child from Mammy, with a "Praise Gawd," and laid it on her mistress arm. The young mother smiled, and in a weak voice asked: "Has your Master come?" "No Missy, soothed Lou, Mars Mel ben d'layed somewhar, but he'll be heah dreckly, honey." Downstairs a tall man, with a pale face, on which dumb grief and despair were plainly visible, awaited Mammy. He was Angie May's husband, Jim. It was not long before Mammy arrived as the tenseness of the room upstair was too much for her. She was immediately greeted with the abrupt question which fell from Jim's lips: "Mammy, whar's mah baby?" Mammy hid her face on his arm and trembling, pointed to the shawl-wrapped bundle on the bench. The next day they buried Angie May, the baby clasped to her cold breast.

A. Knight, operating under the business of Brown and Betts, a piece of land, in the north-east portion of the city, for the purpose of a Negro Cemetery and as it was understood to be a gift edge proposition, no shorter than a good commission to the sellers of the lots, the dealer and salesman began to get busy. The men that offered this proposition were the so-called honorable white men of the South. But the better thinking members of our race held a mass meeting and denounced the move toward segregation and to fight every move in discrimination and segregation against our people. The results of this meeting is shown in the following article which appeared in the S. D. Union, and I reprinted for the Eagle readers: "Sues to. Regain. Land. Bought "Suit to set aside his sale of 20 acres of land southeast of the city was filed yesterday in superior court by Claude Woolman, the defendants being the California Land Buyers' syndicate. Following the transaction which was concluded October 27, the buyers announced that a portion of the tract would be set aside for a cemetery for members of the colored race Woolman declares that it was represented to him that the purchasers intended to subdivide the property into building lots. He would not have sold the tract, he declares, had he known that any portion of it would be used for a cemetery. He sues for recission of the deal on the grounds that false representations were made with intent to deceive him as to the real plans of the purchasers. "Woolman sold the 20 acres for $13,000, receiving $500 on account with the deal going to escrow. When plans for establishing a Negro cemetery on the tract were announced, a storm of protests from residents and owners of nearby property resulted, both city council and board of supervisors being appealed to. "Officers of the Land Buyere' syndicate say they had nothing to do with promoting a cemetery, simply buying the land from Woolman and reselling it to C. R. Wilson, who is handling the cemetery project, they say." The San Diego Local Branch of N. A. A. C., held it election of officers, December 2nd at Bethel. A. M. E. Church, 1643 Front street. Mr. D. V.

NEGRO ACTIVE IN BUSINESS MOTON FINDS The modern Negro is fast developing as a business man and is active in all forms of business enterprise existing among white people, Dr. Robert E. Moton, head of Tuskegee Institute and successor to Booker T. Washington, declared yesterday when he arrived on the Tanyo Maru en-route around the world. In the Negro communities of the South they have their bank presidents, heads of realty corporations, theaters, department stores, drug stores, restaurants, etc., he said. The world war had a great influence on the Negro and his problem, Dr Moton also declared, and relations between the Negro and the white in America are on a better basis today than at any time since emancipation. There is a growing conviction among the white people that they have nothing whatever to lose in being fair and just to the Negro, the educator asserted. Since the war an organization has been formed known as the commission on interracial co-operation. It was inaugurated by a group of outstanding white leaders from every state in the south, who met just after the war to consider the application of the principles for which the war was fought to the conditions which obtained between black and white in the suth. Through this form of activity the condition of the Negro population has improved in almost every direction, he said. Dr. Moton inspected the Kamehameha Schools yesterday, and in the afternoon, at Mission Memorial ball to spoke to a large audience of teachers, students, and others interested in educational matters. Governor Farrington presided at the meeting and Dr.A. L. Dean of the University of Haz- e 600,000 for the endowment funds of Hampton and of Theologe institute, and the marshals especially this would give to the two schools for the development of the work among the Negro race. He paid a heartfelt tribute to General Samuel C. Appirong, the founder of Hampton institute, saying that he was the first to bring to the realization of the race the dignity, beauty and necessity of work with the hands, this being only one of those threshold gifts brought to the race by him. The officers were a pallet in the ability of the race to be and to no, a self-respect which should engender respect in others; and a strong realization of the importance and possibility of race and justment—the working, side by side of races of different colors and temperaments without the domination of either race. At the suggestion of Governor Farrington, the meeting closed with the singing of America by the entire audience. Robert Whittaker to Address N. A. A. C. P.
