PICKENS RE TURNS TO THE UNITED STATES SUGGESTS PROGRAM FOR NEGROES OF THE WORLD (By: A. N. P.) Cicagro, III, Feb. 16—William Pirkens, field secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. and contributing edition of the Associated Negro Press, has returned to the states after several weeks stay on the European continent. Mr. Pickens went to Europe to attend the Brussels Conference but was recalled by the home office of the N. A. A. C. P., due to the pressing need of his services in the work of the association here at home, ten days before the postponed conference was held. Mr. Pickens' inability to remain for the conference was a distinct disappointment to the leaders of the movement particularly since he had been elected head of the Commission on the Negro Throughout the World, at a pre-conference meeting. In expressing his regrets upon not being able to remain for the conference to Herr L. Bibattil, of Berlin, Mr. Pickens suggested the following for consideration of the Negro delegates and others interested in the Negro question: "1. Co-operation among Negro organizations in the different parts of Africa through some central bureau and by some periodic conference. "2. Closer co-operation between Negroes of Africa and those of the Western World. "3. The Pan-African Congress as a medium for world co-operation on the Negro question, by both white and black, and by all others interested. "4. There should be some regular exchange of news and propaganda among the Negro groups that is some sort of Western Union association of the World in popular periodic exchanges of news services. "TOUR IS SUCCESSFUL While in Europe Mr. Pickens visited the principal cities of Germany, France, Belgium, Russia and England, studying the conditions and problems faced by the minority races in those countries. According to reports coming to this country, no Negro has ever been accorded the reception in Europe such as was tendered Mr. Pickens. In every city or country visited he was in great demand as a speaker and contributed several articles to the journals of Europe. Looked upon as the "ambassador of Afro-Americans," he carried out the role to an advantage in carrying the Negro's message to thousands of European whites who packed and jammed the assembly halls to hear him speak. In fact so well did Mr. Pickens put over this message many are now wondering whether it would not be a wise move to have him re-visit Europe periodically. PROMINENT PASA-DENA-PASTOR ILL Dr. W. D. Carter the popular pastor of Friendship Baptist Church is ill at the Dunbar Hospital where he was taken at the advice of his family physician Dr. J. T. Whittaker. Rev. Carter has been complaining for some time but his illness was not taken to be of the seriousness that it is unl' diagnosed thoroughly by Dr. Whittaker. If it is the source of much speculation that his illness is due to the extensive work he has under his charge in carrying out the large program of the great Friendship Church. Dr. Carter is known throughout the country as a great church builder and promoter of Negro enterprises. To him can be accredited the innovation of the great industrial Fair and Exhibit held at Friendship Baptist Church about a year ago which was a wonderful and overwhelming success. Since coming to this section of the country he has steadily maintained the establishment of Negro enterprises that the Negro youth might have some source of maintenance, protected the same doctrine from his pupils and when he became ill to fail them, he strate his family in institutions he chose the Dunbar Hospital; a matter of practice which he began. One day he met nine branch one hundred and ninety another. The confidence he has in Dunbar Hospital equipment and the efficiency of her nurses is proof enough that Dunbar is in close contact to note in his Angus. By: TOM SAWYER (By: A. N. P.) Wasington, D. C., Feb. 16—The United States of America—united on some things and divided on others—elects a President once every four years, by Constitutional provision. George Washington, whose birthday was celebrate in February along with Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglas, was the first Chief Executive. He served four years, was re-elected and served four years more. He had made such a good President, that many people thought it would be just lovely to let Father George keep right on Presiding. Then, some of the "Wine Heads" got together, either for political or patriotic purposes, which should be one and the same but they "aint" always, and solemnly declared amongst themselves that it would be exceedingly dangerous for the future of the Republic, if one man, be he ever so good and worthy, should keep right on Presiding, ad infinitum—"world without and, amen." Father George saw the force of this argument, and equally as solennly took it upon himself to declare that it would be dangerous and furthermore, he would not stand—or even sit—for Presiding any longer! So that settled that, and John Adams got a chance. Well, things went along pretty well until one Ulysses Simpson Grant came along. Grant, once regarded as a failure, came along and got his big moment when the Civil War started. As General of the Union Armies, he got matters to such a state that he took a marble top table at Appomattox Court House. Virginia wrote some terms on them, and compelled General Robert B. Lee of the Confederate army to put his John Haneock on the dotted line. They made Grant president once, twice, for this. He liked the job so well that he condescended to permit his name to be used for a Third term. Father George had established the precedent of two terms and General Public Sentiment, the greatest ruler of all time, frowned on thrice receiving the crown, and that was that. Then with assassinations and deaths, a new situation came about, and so on. Theodore Roselt, who served out part of the time of William McKinley, was too clever to try for another term immediately after h's full term to which he was elected. He "stuck" William Howard Taft, his War Secretary, in the job and went off to Africa, thinking all the time in his deep mind that the folks back home would forget the big idea, four years hence. Roseveen tried with the Republican for nomination; he failed. He established the Progressive Party in Chicago at the Auditorium, tore the G. G. P. wide open, and Woodrow Wilson slipped in. The opposition yelled "Third Term" all through that 1912 campaign. Now comes the Honorable Calvin Coolidge from Vermont and Massachusetts. His case is almost identical with Roosevelt's. The "Third Term" Bogey Man has been taken from the closed and dusted off. They have poured prohibition all about it, and have said to Sir Calvin "They shall not pass," meaning Third term, Prohibition and a Small Navy Bases in New York, President Nicholas Murray Butler, of Columbia University, in Washington, Senator William E. Borah, and Speaker of the House, Nekolas Longworth, and "out of the Wild West," like Young Lochinvar, former Governor Frank Lochinvar of Illinois, who refused the office of Vice-President of the United States, after he had been nominated, and the delegates ready to go home. While there is "only a heart-best" between President and Vice-President, which some have gambled with and won out on, Lowden said, "Nay, nay, Paulina." ```markdown ``` Luxurious Apartment house on East Admiralty street by Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Sykes J. H. Sykes, well-known transfer man, has just completed the building of a modern double two-story flat on East Adams St, which adds immensurably to the very creditable class of A-1 edifices on this thoroughfare. Mr. Sykes is a firm believer in the future of Los Angeles and as a result has made quite a few investments which have thus far proven his keen foresight from a business standpoint. Coming here March 17, 1997, absolutely without means, he started to work for the dining service of the Southern Pacific Railroad, where he later became a Class A Chef. To work and tell for others, he was, however, not satisfied, not content, and about this time formed a life partnership with Miss Nees Carter, well-known teacher from New California, who then Mrs. Sykes and the firm prospered and each mile post was a winner. For J. H. Sykes and his wife Raffa rank well up among the progressive and thrifty of this community. Therefore, after 12 years' service with the S. P. and one year working for the City, the Sykye started out for themselves. With rare foresight they bought property on East $23d St. sold it for a great profit, bought in the suburban town of Hell, kept it 7 years and sold for a profit of $17500, bought at $119 Ascot a magnificent home valued at $0.000.00; also property at Manhattan Beach and the East Adams Street property valued at $25.000. The latter up to minute modern in every respect will be open to the public February 26th. This feast of Mr. Sykes but exemplifies having courage in one's self-fair and square dealing will help succeed. Mr. Sykes has always given freely of his time and means to encourage all worth while movements he is in a director of the Unity Finance Company, treasurer of the Negro Business League and withal one of Los Angeles' forensic citizens. Public Schools of California, I arranged a conference with my Cooper with a view of implementing his program, his view of broadening and positive position he may take along the interracial line, especially pertaining to future education of the colored children of this state. Mr. Cooper and formally the Superintendent of public schools of the city of San Diego. I experienced absolutely an difficulty in arranging a conference with our more appointed school board. This conference was had following a meeting I had with Mr. Eugene Haddings presides of, and Mr. Glennie Wickman a member of San Diego's City Board of Education, the conference was regarding my appointment by Mr. Hastings to a position on the Glennie Advisory Committee to make recommendations for improvement and expansion of school buildings and playground development of San Diego. My confidence with Mr Cooper was held in his private office in the city Board of Managers Building. Mr Cooper cordially received me and after the usual greeting we go down to business. To be honest we are not convinced to (By A. N. P.) Corpus Christi, Tex., Feb. 12.—Following closely in the wake of the farrage Mississippi and Louisiana peonage cases, brought to light last week which revealed that Negroes were being sold into slavery by whites, was the indictment returned against Sheriff Raymond Taller of Willey County and other officers and ex-officers of the law, by the jury in the Federal Court here Friday night, on a charge of peonage. The arrest of the officers was made following the charges made by several young men who claimed that they had been arrested on vagrancy charges but instead of being tried and fined were taken to cotton fields and forced to work for farmers under armed guards. Those testifying were white. (Bv. A. N. P.) Philadelphia, Pa. Feb. 14—What is said to be the oldest colored Methodist Church in the world, the Zoar, Methodist Episcopal Church, on Melon street, west of Twaffell this city, has completed the improvement of its edifice, and has a distinct place 'n' the religious h' story of Philadelphia. Until the time of its founding in 1794, Negroes of the city who were members of this denomination had been accustomed to attend St. George's, white, the historic home of Methodism, on Fourth street, where our people were seated in a certain part of the gallery. But they soon became disgusted at this way of learning about God. They went to the missionaries, and founded the Four M. E. church. They made their first abjuration on down street in Ingham, Tupkin and Pike, where they remained until a little over forty years ago, when the immigration moved to its present location. The Rev. J. T. Fletcher is the present pastor. In the passing of W. T. Patterson of 214 N. Alvarado Street, Los Angeles, a great character has fallen, great men do not always come to us with hereditary titles, with military laurels, or with priestly fortunes; neither is it necessary to have commanded a great army, or filled the high positions among their fellows, for after all the highest position that can come to us in this life. If the position of a true humble Servant of the Lord Jesus Christ, and such was, the position of the late W. T. Patterson, the subject of this sketch, and here we have some conception of the man, for out of this character came the life we admired, and the death which we lament today, and being the words of the poet, his life spoke so loud, we could not hear his words, and truly in him was vindicated the greatness of real goodness, and the goodness of real greatness, in that he was always calm and collected, and regardless of circumstances was able at all times to control his spirit, and such a Character Solomon credits as being greater than he that taketh a city. He came to the State of Kansas some years ago to the little town of Emporia, where he grew up as a young man and won in that city, a reputation worth while; he became a Christian in the morning of his life, and united with the Second Baptist under the Rev. Geo. Brown, and soon became one of the most useful officers and members of that Church. As early in life as, his age would permit, he became a Master Mason, and was identified with St. John Lodge of the City of Emporia and by the confidence reposed in him by the Craft, he soon made his way to the Master's Chair, and was considered one of the brightest Masonic lights for many miles around, and not contenting himself with the heights that could be reached in the Blue Lodge, he made his way to the 38nd degree. The fight for Negro liberation is being waged today on a wide front, in countries far remote from the centres of Negro population, and by non-Negraid peoples. While the Negro continues anthetic to world politics as well as to domestic issues and seems resigned to the servile role to which he has been assigned by the imperialist nations who first enslaved him, then robbed him of his fatherland and later desed him with an unintelligible patriarch for the very institutions under which he suffers, events bearing a far-reaching effect upon the Negro future are taking place in China, in Europe and in Mexico. So far as the interest of the Negro in the greatest onal events which are knelling the doom of white world domination might just as well be taking place on the distant planet Mars as in China; Europe and Mexico. And not only is the Negro displaying no interest in the colossal onslaughts on white imperialism in China and Mexico, and even in the white homeland, Europe, but so complete is his ignorance of the reciprocal relat ionship between the struggle of the Chinese and Mexican peoples and his own vague and to the present unactivised desire for liberation that a strong possibility exists that in a war forced upon Mexico by the oil interests of this country the Negro would be found suleidally lined up with the white imperialists and exploiters against his own racial interests and against the interests of the darker races. If this unthinkable promise be his own best racial interests and the common cause of the darker races is to be prevented, it is high time that courageous leaders and White within the race get buy educating the Negro masses in the implications of world politics and the meaning and promise of the universal rebellion evident today on the part of the colored races against white world domination, whether in China, Africa, India, Mesopotamia, Java or Sumatra. To delay this education is to facilitate the use of the Negro as a tool in the bolstering up of white imperialism and thereby earn for the Negro the hatred of the Chinese and other colored peoples struggling against white imperialism and pave the way for his perpetual subordination to the aims of the white imperialists. It is high time that the Negro was familiarized, with the Nationalist struggle in China, and informed of the relationship to the Negro Liberation cause of the many victories won by the Bod Cantonese armies in their orderly sweep Northward against the foreign of the foreign supported Northern milltartars. These victories of the Cantonese armies have already had their effect in Java and Sumatra where uprisings against Dutch Imperialism have occurred lately. They have caused great joy and a militant stirring in India and the hinterland of Africa, where their importance is realized. The British, realizing that not only are their thieves and "ipotentiae" in China threatened by the spread of the Cantonese arms, but that their power in India would be shattered should a powerful and free China come into being, are doing all in their power to block the Cantonese advance, but already the British have been kicked out of Knawt and other places in the interior of China and the time is that approaching, what these imperialist thieves will have to surrender to fumigant and other concessions to their rightful owners. Events in China clearly indicate the swift approach to crush of white imperialism. Will the Negro be alert in his opportunities when that comes once? Will he be in a position to dislodge between his allies and his mansions? These questions that Negro leaders and thieves will have to face.

Children 15 cta. (Former Editor Crusader Magazine) CAN THE NEGRO be altogether unconcerned about events in China, when the issue in China is the same issue facing the Negro in his home country, the Mafia in the issue of the "divine right" of the white robber imperialist nations to rob and despil, subjugate and dominate the darker peoples of the world? There is grave danger of the Negro becoming confused as to the real issue in China. For months now the white daily press, with the exception of laureate John McCarthy (New York) have been busy attacking China and camouflaging the motives of the robber powers who are seeking an opportunity to intervene in the present struggle between the Fictorious Cantonese (Nationalist) armies, sweeping Northward, and the fascist Chinese militants, like Ching-shing (Wu Pei) one tool of Japan, the other the instrument of England. The literary prostitutes who edit the average American newspaper, in their anxiety to serve the interests of the capitalist gang upon whose advertising and their papers is dependent, have shown their readiness to go to any length to malign and discredit the Chinese Nationalists, even to raising the old familiar bogy of Bolshevism against the Cantonese, offering as proof of Chinese bolshevism the simple fact that Soviet Russia, unlike the imperialist powers, has consistently recognised the right of the Chinese to possess their own territory refusing to participate in the arms embargo by which the imperialist powers hoped to disarm the Chinese and make them powerless and ready for the plucking. The situation in China for the last fifty years has been similar to the situation which would arise in an army home if some powerful, uninvited stranger came along, made himself perfectly at home, sat at the head of the table, and laid down rules for the family. It is the same situation existing today in Africa, despoiled by the European imperialists, the same in India, held in subjugation by the British imperialists. The record of the imperialist powers in China has been one of brutal and wanton aggression. Imperialist England, leading exponent of the amazing policy of European eminent domain, made the Tangtse Valley a safe haven of intolerance in 1877. In 1842 she seized the island of Hongkong after a three years war fought by the Chinese to keep opium out of their country and by the British to inflict that deadly drug upon the Chinese masses. Later she forced a weak Chinese government to give up control of mainland near Hongkong and the scapot of Weihaiwei. In 1913 when Tibet, then a part of China staged a British stimulated revolt, England forbade China to suppress the rebellin. In addition, as the result of a second war with China, the British have possession of several strategic cities of Shanghai, Amoy, Hankow, Kuing, Chinkiang, Newchang and Tientsin. These concessions fly the British flag, are policed by British troops and ruled by British law. They constitute a convenient refuge for Chinese criminals. And, in order further to cripple China, the imperialist powers have control of the Chinese tariff and customs. They claim extra territoriality for the nationalist country of Britishia, Americans, etc. to violate Chinese laws and customs with impunity and to be tried in their own courts, under their own laws. Only Germany and Soviet Russia do not claim extra-territoriality or hold concessions in China. Germany, as a result of the world war, having been forced to surrender her concessions and extra territoriality and Soviet Russia, voluntarily gave up the overthrow of capitalism in Russia and the creation of a worker's state. The situation which resulted from these encroachments of the European powers would be somewhat anomalous (to give another illustration) to the situation which would arise in this country if England, France and other nations were to take the strategic portions of large American cities, like New York and Chicago, and insisted on patrolling the Mississippi River, promulgating an edict which made their national residents in this country superior to American law and institutions. The white imperialist expatriates paraded through China in true jim gold fashion, demanding rights and left and enforcing their right to rob and exploit by the ever threatening guns of their war vessels, their private pellet forces, their marines and their regal LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FEBRUARY 25, 1927 ments of foreign mercenaries. It is against this system of imperialist exploitation of the Chinese masses, that the Chinese Nationalist Government is fighting. It is because the Canton Government represents the interests and aspirations of the downrodden Chinese masses and has declared its determination to fight until the Chinese people have been made slaves of the capitalists, is destroyed, that the masses have rallied to its support. The Chinese Nationalist armies have swept forward from victory to victory until today they control more than half of all China, and menace the Chinese war lords, the props and puppets of the imperialist powers. The Chinese militarists, secretly subsidized by England, France and other imperialist powers, have been powerless to stem the rising tide of the liberation of China. Now, on the other hand, the Nationalist armies have swept, until today they menace foreign control of Shanghai, China's richest and most populous city. It is against the Chinese Nationalist that the British imperialists are cushing war vessels and troops, at the same time that they utter smug professions of friendship and sympathy for the Chinese people. It is against the Chinese Nationalist's legitimate ambitions for a free China, a China for the Chinese, that the various imperialist powers are mobilizing, including the United States. It is against the same Chinese Nationalists that colored men and boys may be called upon to fight in a war to attempt to perpetuate imperialist extortion. The Chinese last aroused, well trained and adequately armed. And yet it is not too much to say that it is in China today that the fate of white imperialism is beng decided that it is in China that white imperialism is receiving its death blow and the way being prepared to reject peoples and the overthrow of economic exploitation of the many by the few. In the face of this consideration, what is to be the attitude of the Negro masses in the United States? What the attitude of the Negro press? Is it to be one of continued apathy and unconcern to one of the greatest social manifestations occurring in the world of politics—a struggle subject with great oppressed and exploited of all the earth? Is the Negro to continue indifferent to this tremendous phase of the universal liberation struggle? Do the leaders of the race consider it resident on Mars or on Earth? T. L. WOOD PASSES Timothy Lee Woods, well known local capitalist, passed away last Saturday at about 3 o'clock P. M. after an illness of about one week's duration from blood poisoning at his home. 2428 E. 4th Street. The news of Mr. Woods' passing came as a shock to his many friends and acquaintances for it was not known by even his closest associates that he was even wick. Mr. Wood was born in Raleigh, N.C. 49 years ago, where he was reared and went to Boley in 1908, where he entered business. He rapidly developed into a business man of rare ability and went on to be a general department store and his business was one of the foremost in the State of Oklahoma. He accumulated vast holdings throughout the state. Deciding to retire from business activity he disposed of his business at Boley and in 1921 came to a retirement, conducted a Realty Business handling principally his own holdings. Mr. Wood owned more than a score of residence properties and besides the Woods' Block on the corner of 9th and Central Ave., in which the owner owned a large ranch in the Imperial Valley; also retained holdings of rich oil lands in Oklahoma. A conservative estimate of his holdings is in the neighborhood of $500,000.00. He was devout member of the Christian Science, and was one of the Board of Directors of the Church of God city. Mr. Wood was affable, well met and congenial in every respect. He leaves to mourn his loss a loving and devoted wife, two daughters, father, brother, a sister in the East and a host of friends. The funeral services were conducted from the Angels Funeral Home, 1060 E. Jefferson Street on yesterday at 1 P. M. in charge of the officers and members of the Christian Scalce Church.

Almost the entire casings for the door were forced off by a heavy crow bar. On opening, all avi- dated patrols at the house had red hilt tip just where the secret money box was hidden, and without open- ing any other drawer, went straightway to the cash and gobbled up about $250.00 in cash, and departed without further ado. The police were called, took finger prnts and with several clues furnished the clues. In the shaves Lieut. of Detectives Heuff and Brody are detailed on the case. VICTORY LIFE ENTERS NEW YORK New York City, Feb. 23—Anthony Overton, president of the Victory Life Insurance Company of Chicago spend the week here comparing plans for opening the New York branch of the Victory Life Insurance Company, the State of New York, and the State of New York Insurances Department, February 9. The admittance of the Victory Life Insurances Company into the State of New York has been preclaimed an epoch-making event due to the fact that it is the first company owned and operated to do business in the State of New York or rather to qualify in this state. For a number of years white plato companies have held calls every year. In the States of New York, and it is reported that a special table of rates was compiled for Metro policy holders, thereby forcing Negroes to pay a higher rate than other policy holders. The counting of the Victory Life Insurance Company for business will serve to increase the benefits it is claimed it will force on abandonment of the alleged practice. The officers of the Chicago corporation are being congratulated upon a sound business basis. According to a statement made by President Overton, the company has on foot a plan of expansion which will carry it into the states of Michigan, Pennsylvania and Virginia perhaps during the current year.

Madam Madia Oversee Jasper, Director of By LEWIS K. BEEKS The following is a true copy of an article that appeared in the Black Dispatch (Oklahoma City) of February 10, 1927: "Dissatisfied Stockholders Make Futile Attempt to Wreck $200,000. Race Mfg. Corporation—Heffin Furniture Mfg. Co. Cleared of Charges at Hearing Before State Corporation Commission." (Pacific Coast News Bureau) "Los Angeles, Cal., Feb. 10.—The Heffin Mfg. Co., the $200,000 furniture manufacturing corporation, founded, managed and controlled by a year-old colored youth, the largest and most concerned of its kind operated by the company in out the entire world, has just been vindicated of a das ardy attempt by a minority group of disgruntled stockholders to wreck the corporation. FILE COMPLAINT "Five d satisfied stockholders thru their attorney, Lewis K. Beeks, lied a complaint before the state corporation commissioner charging that permission to examine the books and records of the corporation had been denied them and requested that the stock permit of corporation be revoked. The complainants were: J. H. Sykes, vice-president of the Unity Finance Co., holder of $500 worth of stock; W. Bowers, apartment house manager; $500 worth of Kevin Reeves, prominent club woman; $250 invested, who had paid $100 on stock; and Wm. C. Hammond, director Smith and Williams, Undertakers, who had paid in only $300 on a $100 subscription." This and similar articles have appeared since the Heffin Manufacturing Company was summoned before the Corporation Commissioners after the affair of the Corporation had been adjourned by the Commission or upon compel of the stockholders named, and the financial condition of said company was discovered to be in such poor shape that upon recommendation of the Corporation Commission, a warrant of permit of the Company to sell stock was immediately suspended. The writer of this article does not feel it necessary to comment upon the cheap effort that has been made to take unfair advantage of the complaining stockholders who sought to protect their interest in the Company by complaining to the Corporation Commissioner, but it is only expedient to explain that the facts and figures brought to light by this hearing, and which are now on file with the Corporation Commissioner be given to the investing public. The report of the financial condition of the Hefflin Manufacturing Company shows that the Company purchased a piece of real estate at a cost of $15,000.00 and that a mortgage of $14,938, existed thereon; that there was a cash account of $909.69; that the Company purchased the year 1926 of $10,000.00; that there existed a deficit of $17,481.67; that here were accounts payable of $38.33 and an over draft of $87.40. It is needless to speak of the integrity and character of the citizens who through their attorney, Lewis K Beeks, filed the complaint which brought the above facts to fight. All of them are so well known to the community for their thrift and industry that no one will question their sincere effort to get at the truth of the financial status of the Company, which had been denied them on numerous occasions. Contrary to the articles published in the newspaper, himself as to whether or not the complaints were allowed to see the books, records and reports of the Corporation and made no ruling thenceon as that department was concerned only with the financial condition of the Company which brought the suspension. At the second hearing of the case, Mr. Heflin in order to make a more favorable financial showing of the Company, assigned an insurance policy on his life to the Company, and filed statements to the effect that the creditors had reduced their claims to one half of the original amount and their interest in the insurance arranged by Mr. Heflin's attorney, Mr. Dunnigan, that a valuable one had been found on the premises being purchased by the Company known as a post. All of these facts were so罪证 by the Commissioner and in the event that the financial showing after the investigation warranted it, after Mr. Heflin filed another financial statement, the commissioner ruled. With this statement of the case we can see that the insurer is detaining whether or not the stockholders should be deferred or筹集 for bringing to light the herein stated condition of affairs. 2-8-7-1 BY: LOUIS MICHEL The Warren Brothers, Ellis N. and J. A. are Trusted Managers of the Southwestern Portland Cement Company Liberty, in a veritable labyrinth of grim oppression and dejecting intolerance, spreads its gentle, brotherly wings in Los Angeles. The rusty hating of tyrannical clanging, but the bright rapiper of justice is gleaming at the same time. Here in Los Angeles, two real, not mouth leaders of the Negro race, the brothers, J. A. Warren and Ellis N. Warren, are the two responsible guiding Managers of the great Warehouse of the Southwestern Portland Cement Company, at Mill and Industrial streets. What is the wondrous lesson that must be drawn from this grand, inspiring, so very unusual circumstance? The proof is fundamentally established that not all the Caucasians are unjust, but that big-minded and progressive white men, like the heads of this tremendously big organization, prosper more intelligently and stimulating honesty. When once the white man learns of and appreciates the great good in the Black men, the color question is no longer a dividing question, and is removed from the world. Ellis N. Warren, who is the warehouse superintendent of the toltehoma northwestern Portland Cement Company for 20 years, while his brother J. A. Warren, has been the confidential bookkeeper for 7 years. Thus is Negro capacity, Negro stability and Negro progress shown in a most convincing and constructive way, when in an industrial manner, he is built in matching the big business plant of a millionaire white company. Not only sounds this truthful epic of business like a great romance, but it really represents a refreshing easilie in a burning wastedaste, a bright skilting star in a mad, crazy world of darkness, it is a heart's-warming picture of Negro rise through sheer integrity and passion of a prodigal sense, for both parties are faring well by this commercial brotherhood. It would be a splendid service to humanity if the readers of the Eagle would mention similar cases of a new cra in this city. THE FASHION SHOW THE FASHION SHOW GENIUS OF RACE TALENT WILL HOLD FORTH IN ALL ITS GLORY AT SHRINE AUDITORIUM MARCH 1st The Phys-Art-Lit-Mo Club will hold its Annual Fashion Revue at the Shrine Auditorium on next Tuesday evening which promises to outdo all previous efforts in displaying the genius of Los Angeles talent, in the art world and in Great preparations are being made. All hands who appreciate real worth and accomplishment are bending all of their efforts to assist the club in making this year's fashion show the outstanding one of all others. Several innovations will be in evidence which guarantee to please to the utmost. Aside from the grandfather and real-lam there is a constructive, angle to this great demonstration in that it is possible to bring a best belong in the field of production. The ladies of the Phys-Art-Lit-Mc Club are fully apprehensive of wonderful support from the public and for this reason, each year they strive to bring forth the very best for their patrons. In fact they have be satisfied with this result, this fact that they have been successful indeed, to be able to present a program which will stand the most exacting criticism. With this function going over the club will be well on its way toward erecting its beautiful home for all time as a monument to the sacrifice and genius of the women of the race.

The Editor of the California Eagle, Los Angeles, saii Los Angeles, Cam. Dear Sir: In reading last week's copy of the Eagle, I was much amused to note the prominence of the OIL SCARE IN WATTS." This may my first knowledge of this, and I am sure this is another of those "Subdivision Thinks." Advise your readers if they are to buy land in this vicinity to buy their land for a HOME and not an oil well. Nobody is scared in Watts about Oil, in fact we have not even heard about it; too, this is in the city of Los Angeles, and I am sure there is a certain subdivision with all drilling in the city limits. The vicinity described in your paper did locate a certain subdivision which has not sold, but has been on the market for more than two years. Very truly yours, KNOX-KNOX REALTY CO. By: W. R. Knox. Buttown, Pa.—The question, "Is preaching work?" must be decided by Referee Seidel in the case of Clarence F. Kresge, Allentown, Pa., a student at Beulak Park Bible School. While nailing shingles on the school he was injured, and, in applying to the state Compensation Board, said during his recuperation he was able to preach but not to work. Quinton, N. J.—Because two, West Jersey and Seashore Railroad passenger trains on the Elmer and Quinton branches average only five passengers per train per day, the Public Utility Commission has granted permission to discontinue them. The trips became so monotonous and lonesome, it is said the train crews welcomed diversions like a cow on the track. Millville, N. J.—When Mrs. L. Lester Smith, South Millville, was awakened by a noise in the cellar, she thought it was the cat. But the next morning she discovered thieves with a motor truck had taken half a fat porker, fifty pounds of lard and four bushels of potatoes. Weisel, Pa.—"Slim" Buck and several of his Bucks county neighbors were startled at midnight by what they believed to be a fire alarm.

Milson as pastor of the Second Baptist Church. Welcome addresses were given by representatives from all the clubs, civic fraternizations and sister churches of the city, intermarried with musical numbers and anthems by a vested choir. Rev. T. M. Davis, state Missionary was the installing officer, assisted by Dr. H. H. Mitchell, President of the San Joaquin Valley Dist Convention. The Art and Industrial Club served the renast. Equally as large was the crowd that assembled at the church of God in Christ last Friday evening to bid God speed to Elder L. C. Patrick, he visiting pastor, who has recently been elevated to the Blissoppe of his church. Bishop John M. Wilson was present from Los Angeles and gave the principal address of the evening. He was followed by speakers from sister church, and the music was furnished by choirs from Bethel A. M. E. and the Second Baptist Church. The Rev. Fred A. Hughes acted in the capacity of Master of Ceremonies, and presented an excellent program. Mrs. Ollie W. Wolfskill is slowly recovering from a lengthy severe illness. The "Rive Sheils," including T. J. Dixon, Milton Williams, Mache King, Fred Cannon and Ben Watkins, were hosts at a truce and lively party last Friday evening. The spacious dwellings of Mr. and Mrs. William A. Bigley, Jr. was borrowed for the occasion, and their guests included all the younger set, and a sprinkling of the younger married continuation. Bev. and Mrs. Fred A. Higgins and family have occupied the new parsonage adjoining the elegant new Cartier Memorial A. M. E. Church. The debate, Received That Prohibition is a Monace to Society," sponsored by the N. A. A. C. F. at the A. M. E. Mon Church last Sunday afternoon drew a large audience and proved to be a very interesting discussion. The Negro Citizens Advancement League is sponsoring a series of lectures on various vital subjects, the first of which is being given this week by the Fire Department at Gaubaldi Hall. After nearly five years with the Sheriff's office, William A. Biggy, Jr. resigned to accept a more iterative position. He was present with a monochromatic good fountain pan and shamrock a ticker of apprehension, a card bearing the signature of the Sheriff and his office staff. Bombardment on the gay Prunetia Card was lavishly entertained by their thousands last Tuesday evening instead of the hundreds being entertained with the regular monthly dinner on husband's night.

The gavel fell and Judge Richardson's Court was in session. "David Watson you are hereby charged with stealing two bottles of milk from in front of a grocery store at 1327 E. 27th St." Officer F. C. Kimhrough had caught Watson stealing two bottles of milk early in the morning. The officer testified that complaints had come to him of a man answering his description "stealing money from milk bottles." Walton was found guilty and as to the grant looking ungrateful, he said to "Well, if you say you were hungry, I suppose the city ought to take care of you. We will give you 30 days in talk" Albert Chism, well-known citizen, has been married to his wife, Enola for twenty years of unsullied bliss. Each pay night Chism unfailingly came home with the pay check, until a few weeks ago he made the acquaintance of one Lacarge, whom it seems, induced Albert to accompany him to 1101 E. Pico for a few hands of the international indoor sport, draw poker. After several weeks of this invariably ending in Chism arriving home with an empty envelope, Mr. Chism, who is one of the stellar lights of the Parent Teachers Association grew tired of this, so on last Friday she called up the above address and found him there. Going over to son-in-law with him, after arming with a pistol, she became involved in a bitter quarrel with him during which she shot him in the shoulder. He is in the Hospital and she is in charge of the jail matron charged with assault with intent to murder. The officer in the case was L. N. Bindword. J. D. James was charged with disturbing the peace in the vicinity of 1940 Central Ave. He plead not guilty and the case was set for Friday. One bad apple spoils a flock of good ones. John Richardson was a good, industrious boy, obedient to his parents and steady working. His brother Albert was a bad egg with a penchant for the stealing and had fortunately gotten out of a previous scrape after being shot by an officer. But one night last week, while patrolling his beat in the vicinity of 24th and Stanford, officer Anderson surprised the good John and the bad Albert in the act of stealing some spare tires. Founcing on him they downed him and took his black-jack and were beaking him up when his cries for help attracted a family living near. On the man running up they fled. The officer who had not lost his gun in the mlee fixed at them while running and hit John in the back, the bullet entering the chest. He is is a dangerous condition near death in the hospital. The other brother made his escape and has not been apprehended as we go to press. G. W. Craddock, erstwhile manager of Traeger's campaign dodged the Hawk's hand on last Monday when a process server attempted to serve a summona on him by refusing to take the same when handed to him, he beat a hasty retreat. This is an echo to the campaign which, re-elected Sharif Traeger last fall, the case was that of a widow woman, Mrs. Guest suing for services rendered prior to the primaries last August. Several suspicious characters were picked up by the burglaries of Dr. Albert Baumann's Drug Stops No. 2. Some people like pig ears but S.

Are you willing the profiters of politics should decide the kind of city government you are to have? The people can manage their own affairs if they really want to do so. But persons who are not interested enough in these affairs to give them intelligent study, and then cast their vote according to the honest convictions they have formed, are a poor type of citizen. OUR FIRST ELECTIVE NEGRO OFFICER By: Hon. Wm. Hestert Fields, National Grand Master of A. C. K. and D. of A. The rising to political preference and the recognition of the Negro as a parallel of stubborn resistance. But in every crisis there is a man who is willing to pay the price of leadership. An this case the man was Charles H. Turpin. In the year 1910 he started out to win a covered place. The fight which he put on at that time is well remembered by the citizens of that day. Twice the decision of the Supreme Court of the State was reversed in Mr. Turpin's favor. Mr. Turpin fought and won his place as Constable of the fourth Constabulary District in St. Louis. He held the place to the honor, both of the people of his race and all the citizens of this city. He declined to be a candidate for the office of the present town Due entirely to the efforts on the part of Mr. Turpin, we have today, in the City of St. Louis, six elected officers. Judge Clark held with distinction and was elected the second time, to the office of Justice of Peace of the fourth District. We have Constables Langston Harrison and William Morant of the same District, and Mr. Ira Dorsey of the fifth District. All of these men have a number of appointments. We have the following officers, appointed and elected otherwise: Robert Scott, elected Committeeman of the sixth Ward, the first colored man to be elected to said office in the City of St Louis. We have as Committeewomen, Mrs Cassie Harris of the fifth Ward; Mrs Florence G. Davis, of the nineteenth Ward; Mrs Elizabeth Slaughter Gamble of the sixth Ward, and Mrs Carrie Tillman of the nineteenth Ward. In the Legislature we have the Honorable Walthall M.

So it is in Dentistry, says Dr. Pillow. It was really surprising to me the large amount of business we did the opening and ensuing week at our new dental office No. 2 located at 4621% Compton Ave, two and one-half blocks South of Vernon Ave. I attribute it to the standardizing of our business. It is not our policy to advertise a certain price and have patients come to either of our offices and ask a different or higher price altogether. The prices are low as well as standard. Our tooth gold or rubber, in fact all of the materials used are bought from reputable firms with sound reputations.

This great popularity contest, not merely a big money scheme, but a real proof of what can be accomplished by cooperating. The management of this organization says that the secret of our success is due to the loyalty of its members to their leader, and the stick-to-it spirit. We are ever mindful of the sloppy of James J.

On November 1, 1857, the family came to California, Sister Talbot, always gentle in manner and of a sunny disposition, early in life embraced the cause of Christ and as her life grew fullen, it became more perfect. She was a devoted wife, a loving mother and never seemed to find it difficult to live close to Christ. Morning, noon and night, she converse with him. Opinions might alter manners might change, creeds rise and fall, but Sister Talbot was always the same—"a being with an immortal part." Death visited this family on two occasions, both of them tragic. The first time he took the husband and father, the second time he took Els; the second son. That even this did not affect the beautiful Christian character of this Mother. Among her many activities was her work as teacher in the Second A. M. E. Sunday School. She also mothered the motherless, nursed the sick and comforted those in arrear. This beautiful and active life she lived and sacrificed until three years, seven months and eleven days ago, when her great and final illness came upon her. Her sister then became a labor of love to her children, her grand daughter, her sister and her many friends.

He will speak under the auspices of the International Labor Defense, taking as his subject "The Power of the Workers." A banquet in his honor will be held Friday, March 4th, at 8:00 P.M. at the Cooperative Center, 2706 Brooklyn Ave. Bishop Brown's evolution from the most orthodox bishop of America to the world's most extreme heretic forms a fascinating chapter in ecclesiastical history. He retired from his diocese because of broken health in 1912, and as he humorously noted, "I lost an opportunity to honor his oblivion by getting well and read some books by Malcolm Darwin." Believed to be the responsibilities of church administration he found time for the world in which he lived and the result was his remarkable book, "Communism and Christianism," publication of which led to his trials for heresy and the decree of deposition read by the presiding bishop of the church. The Biahop's home is in Galton, Ohio, where he gives a quiet life, coming out of retirement occasionally to voice his opinion on current politics and social questions. He reviews the conflict between fundamentalism and modernism as one who has fought on both sides. His coming engagement will be his first appearance in this state, and since he is 72 years old, will probably be his last. Robert Whitaker will be chairman of the meeting.

Van Norton the city has sent a worthy gift, the church a loyal member and a devoted christian, the home a kind husband and a loving and kindest step brother. A kind C. H. Van Norton cared for his wife and C. H. Van Norton cared for his children. A gift from Georgia, and at old age commended himself by the Mt Zion Baptist Church, then located on Second and Rose. He served in every position a try. peace in the ruins which remain well in the ruins world. Law P. H. Watson, member of Mt. Eton preaching in the ruins, died at Hampton, Windsor and Guildford as to his suffering worth and words of sympathy and comfort in the bereaved family. The Odd Fellows and Ruths were out in goodly numbers. He was a Pax Office in the G. U. G. of O. P. and was buried with high honors from that organization. Mt. Zion will miss him. His places cannot be filled. He was her spokesman first in everything for His church and the uplift of far-away humankind. He ill only three days before his friends realized he was gone. He departed his life January 19, 1927, at 10:30 P. M. surrounded by friends and relatives with tears dimmed* eyes. He leaves to mourn his loss a wife, three daughters, two sons, a son in law, three grandchildren, a sister, and an adopted mother, and a host of friends. Peace to his ashes. Floral offerings were beautiful and many. Smith-Williams had charge of the funeral and performed well their part. Interment was in Evergreen Cemetery. 3-4-1 Praises 1191. We are all mostly mistaken, as so who is the happy person. We would think it to be the popular person, or the rich, or the famous or the successful. But the human soul is so constituted that none of these things can confer happiness except a very temporary, and unsatisfactory nature. like the proverbial "apples of Sodom" they turn to ashes on our lips. Furthermore the human life is so overruled by Divine Providence that happy circumstances do follow these covered benefits, as benefits we may call them. The rich quarrel and divorce each other and live lives full of envy and hate and suspicion, as with wonderfully unpleasant suicide to escape it all. The famions often die in poverty and obscurity. The popular lose their popularity and the crown of social admiration is taken by another. Uneasy lies the head that wears any sort of a crown. Knowledge and Conscience Now such in the constitution of the human soul that knowledge and a clear conscience can give, happiness where nothing else can. A clear conscience was never shamed of the past nor afraid of the future; though for lack of sufficient knowledge it often gets discouraged at the present. "To such ones heaven speaks its most encouraging word," "Tref not thyself because of evil doers, neither because of vicious against the good of integrity; for they shall be put down as the grass and wishing as the green heath Trust in the Lord and do good." *Get Wrong* Now the writer of the 19th Psalm, had not been perfect, more is the pity. Yet it helps us all that, he had not been; for some many of us need help who are in such a case. He says of himself, "Before I was afflicted I went estray." That was a distressing admission to make, but it took a true heart to make it in an humble and honest spirit. Again he ended the Psalm by saying, "I have gone astray like a lost sheep's seek Thy servant." A servant of God? Yes. In the way of holiness? Yes. Perfect in the way, undefiled in the was? No. An Honest Saint But he might have been and, he should have been undefeated. He admits his own guilt and bears his own guilt and his shame. He does not hide his imperfections behind the unfortunate defalations of others. He meets the issue four square. He does not make lie his refuge. Isa 28. The fault is his, and like a real man, he bears it. He is patient. He is honest. Truth is truth. Right is right. Holiness comforts him. Wit, mother happiness and faith. The Word is Jesus.

Deemeth defeats love, though for purpose of waging all the good possible to all, "hive womb all to all to his neighbor and fulfillth the Law." Gal. 5:16-25. Ro. 8:8-10. The Way of Obedience The path of obedience is a happy path. The law could not give life because of the deprivation of man the obdient tendencies of the human soul. Because fulfilled the law, magnified and made it honorable. Then gave Himself to us as a lifegiver, as wisdom, rightness, anstilification and redemption. He is all of this today to him and to you. He is our way. His life in our life. He is our standard, our ensign, our "sign of holiness," our all in all. A pleased holiness (Father (ol. 1) that in Him all fulness should well. Blessed be he! God made man the flesh, righteous man made man, truth, insecure, light walking about in a human body, the word made flesh, divinity among man, the glory of the only begotten of the Father, revealed to men. He could truly say, "I am the way the truth and she life." Most Are the Undefiled Best are the undefiled this day Who walk the way, the holy way; They're happy for they do no sin, And they shall endless glory win. When to thy word I have respect And my commandments recollect; A happy thy Spirit gives, And Christ God's Son within 'ne lives Blessed in soul and spirit, too, Blessed in all they say or do, Blessed in heaven and in earth, Are they who find the second birth.

Formal (announcement was made yesterday (Monday) by Judge Guy Bush of his candidacy for retention on the municipal bench, office number 9" be ng the new official designation of the department in the municipal court in which the candidate is presiding. In recognition to the debt which Judge Bush feels that he owes his aged uncle Charles W. Tabor, a retired attorney now living in Hollywood, the judge dispatched a special message to Mr. Tabor stating his decision to seek election and giving the uncle credit for much that the years have brought both to Judge Guy Bush and his twin brother Eli F. Bush, an attorney also residing in Los Angeles. "You thought enough of us two harum-scarum boys to give us the money that made possible our course at the University of Michigan," the message said in part. "Without that faith and without your unfailing counsel we could not have accomplished what we have. Your peculiar integrity and high sense of honor manifest all through your law practice have been a guide and inspiration to me, because of your generosity toward me and my brother. I want to take this occasion to say that your Talth in me has made it possible for me to reach the judge's bench and I hope that I may be worthy to continue in that position." Judge Bush graduated from the University of Michigan in 1906 and was admitted to the bar in Michigan in 1909. Two years later he was admitted to the bar in California and practiced law in Los Angeles from that date until his appointment to the municipal court bench by Governor Richardson. The judge is a member of the state and local bar associations; the Temple Baptist Church, Masonic Club, University Club, Brotherhood Club, and the Electric Club. He's a trustee of the Temple Baptist Church and vice-president of the Los Angeles Baptist City Mission Society. Mrs. Bush is a noted singer and is prominently identified with various Los Angeles musical organizations and women's clubs. ```markdown ``` Marchetti For Judge Out Of Respect.

The public has long felt and clamored for an organization sufficient in Numero, Logic and Humanitarian Principles, to arrest and adjust all patterns mimical to the best interest if he people. In this many organizations have a keen short, not because their intentions were not good, but for the lack of program sufficiently comprehensive to cope with any emergency and because of the absence of concentration and co-operation. Profitting by the error of past experience, two of the most powerful Political Organizations of the age, have plans under way by which they will merge, and absorb, many of the present organizations throughout the country. The following preamble sets forth in part, the ideals of th's mighty organization. This League has for its object the rea. betterment of all members of the human race. It is a League of Justice. The principles underlying this organization are the ever-enduring foundations of any political democracy which in its fullness will be the veneer-developing crown and glory of this great American nation. There is a most urgent need for this statesmanlike and businesslike organization. The principles encouched will not encash upon those afar other or similar institution, nor will it interfere with the Federal principles whose services it hopes to enlist, to the end that all Races and Nations in this community may be fully warranted in proclaiming to the world: Now we are a part of the government of the United States. With able champions at the head of this movement a relentless and unremitting combat will be waged for attaining unto eligibility for the exercise and enjoyment critical and civil right of citizenship within each and every one of the constituent political units of this country, and the provision of suitable and accountable scholastic facilities for establishing and imparting the necessary knowledge and worship for the purpose of engendering within this generation and its nosterity true spirits of local Nationalism engraften upon and conjoined with the one general spirit that should pervade this entire country, the spirit of all persons who are true and faithful in their allegiance to this American Republic—American for Americans. On last Thursday evening Feb. 3, 1927, war was declared in the offices of the Lower California Mexican Land and Development Co., when the directors and stockholders had met in a joint stockholders meeting. For some time, three of the directors of his company, namely: J. N. Littlelip, Chaudhri Troy and Junius H. Stevens and many of the stockholders had grown impatient with the apparent loose and careless way in which the books of the company and the people's mones were being handled. Nine years ago, this company began its operations and not once since its organization, has its books been audited until a week ago. With this fact facing them, Little John, Troy and Stevens had praeltely forced the Board of Directors of the company into an audit of its books prior to the stockholders meeting. The books were audited by Mr. Bratton of the Service Auditing Co., and we here wish to state that they put the job over in grand style. Messra. Littlejohn, Troy and Stevens had differed with the r'ellow directors, and naturally their opponent directors had come to this meeting with full intentions to give Messra-Littlejohn, Troy and Stevens, a sound thrashing into line or better out of line. In order that this might be thoroughly accomplished, the no-audit gent-enemies brought alone a large steam roller with which they had planned to flatten out the insurgent stockholders and belligerent directors. For fear that some of his opponents might bodily tear a wheel off of the steam roller or punch the driver in one of his eyes, Mr. Maceth or some associate of his had ordered two large and well aided policemen from the L. A. Police Dept. Before we go further, we would like here to pay our respects to these officers. They had not been there over five minutes before they understood the entire situation and it is my opinion that they felt like taking a punch at Maceth for the treatment which was being served out to many an old grieved mother and father, of whom Maceth had years ago put in their last roller in this unbusinesslike and all headed proposition. After all, I must Bruder Maceth was right by having these officers there for when Mr. Claudius Troy told him to his head, from the floor, that he (Maceth) was nothing but a yellow Negro crook, intended to raise his eyes in resentment. in Chicago Min. & district on North Bedford Avenue, Oak Park, in an original town frame.

CARTER ADDRESSES THE EBELL CLUB Dr. W. R. Carter, Superintendent of Negro Work for the South Carolina Baptist Convention, addressed the Ebb Club, one of the most artistic club of Los Angeles, at their beautifully appointed quarters, 18th and Figueroa streets last Wednesday afternoon at 2 P. M. The occasion was their regular meeting, at which time in keeping with a pre-arranged program, featuring the Negro in music. Dr. Carter spoke of the origination of Negro music which developed in the soul of these folk who were bowed down in slavery and misery, with a vague thought of a new day and expressed it in songs and murmurings. It was around their huts that the Great Creator spoke to these people and gave them freedom of speech in proportion to their intellect that burst forth in songs that are yet fresh on the lips of millions. Excerpts from Dr. Carter's address follow: "Many of our local Negro or white quartets or glee club fails to properly interpret the true spiritual of the Ante Belem Negro. These organizations sing for entertainment and oftimes for your amusement. Negro spirituals were born not made. Born in the bosom of a patient, suffering, trusting, hoping and hopeful people. The Negro spiritual is the very soul of a people who gave 250 years of unrequited toll in the development of this nation. The Negroace, common to the Negro of the Nation, was found in his religion and he gave expression to it in song. All of these songs were born of the experiences of a people whose lot was trials and troubles, whose hope was surceased in heaven. Will these songs ever die? No! They are the songs of a race, songs of America and are the only true source of Negro history in America." He goes on to say: "If anyone would truly read Negro life, let him study these songs." They are the connecting link between the young Negro of today and his ancestry. They create racial consciousness, inspire racial pride and encourage racial hope. "Miss Roena Muckretoy, a graduate student, college of music, U. S. C., rendered several Negro spirituals, whose marvelous voice completely captivated her hearers. The richness of her voice was perhaps more clearly realized in her rendition without an accompaniment of the "Balm of Gilead." The finale was a wonderful selection by Wesley Chapel Quartette which was more than appreciated. Honolulu; T. H. February 17, 1927. MR. and MRS. BASS, Los Angeles, Cal. Dear Friends: Just read the issue of February 4, 1927, hasten to con- gratulate you. As you know, have been a careful reader of the "Essay" of Mark Twain. I assure you that the issue mentioned towers migh- tily over all preceding ones in real news. Mr. Noah D. Thompson's departure struck me as most deplorable for I always looked upon him as a fine and mighty pillar of your people and an honor to the city at large. Noah Thompson has chosen great work and "with you all dear people, I bid him God's speed. Then, Tom Sawyer's name or Color nises" should be read twice, three times, to sink deeply into the hearts of all who, like myself, work and pray for racial equality. Again, "Mother Sckumman-Heink's visit to the Bethune-Cookman College. This noble German woman own my own island. Equalize added in her great big heart and God bless the "Battle" for giving the news to its many readers. The South Carolina lynching trial is another feature worth reading. Hope the next issue will bring a favorable declaration. Your ever aparating editor, as usual, comes in for its share. Last but not least, DuBois' call to Santa Monica which I hope proves a great success. Last week mentioned the payment of all investments in the ill-fated Pacific Beach undertaking. There truly must be "anagua" hanesty among Negro promo-men worthy of inclusion by a double-faceted lesbian I had to burst out true to a German saying: "Of the things which fill the heart, the mouth (here the pen) must overflow.

REAL ESTATE - FIRE INSURANCE NOTARY PUBLIC ```markdown ``` BIG MAJORITY OF AUTO TREETS RESULT FROM THE ABSENCE OF ANY KIND OF LOCKING DEVICE "Protect your car when it is parked, unless you want to aid auto thieves," is the warning sent out by their arsenal of its Automobile Police, Southern California. This caution is inspired by the report of stolen cars in Los Angeles. During January, exactly 1006 cars were made away with by thieves, with an average of 824 automobiles reported missing every day. According to the police records, a large percentage of stolen cars are soon recovered, but some are found after being abandoned by thieves after a brief time. A large number; however, are recovered only after considerable time has elapsed and much work put in by the police, detectives and theft bureau of the auto club. The expert class of auto thieves make a practice of storing stolen cars in recent private garages which are often owned by innocent parties. Weeks later after being altered, the stolen wares are transformed by changing tops, wheels, fenders, lights and colors, and the machines are trundled out and sold, even the engine and license numbers are altered. Frequently the cars are taken out of the state where they are easily disposed of to unknowing buyers. The large majority of thefts result from the absence of locks on cars. The careless motorist is first aid to the auto thieves, according to the police reports. A large number of the cars are stolen within a few minutes after being parked. Double locks are the best protection, as the records show that single locks on the ignition are little better than no lock at all. "Make it a habit to leave your car theft proof," says the auto club theft bureau. Auto Insurance Law Is Opposed NATIONAL CHAMBER FEARS RESULT OF LEGISLATION Rural Motorist Would Suffer Under Plan; Being Tried By Massachusetts At Present New York, Feb. 19. (Exclusive)—urging emmunities to get fuller data on compulsory automobile liability insurance before rushing headlong into a network of complicated law, the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce has issued a summary of proposed legislation hearing on this point. Bills advocating compulsory insurance have been introduced in twenty-one of the forty-two States whose legislatures are now in session. In many of the States there is no exemption that the measure will be passed, but rather the bill is introduced as a trial collector. bounon. UNDER TRIAL Unless the public advantages of such a measure can be clearly demonstrated, the motorist should not be burdened by compulsions of this nature; the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce holds. Machacquette is the only State which has attempted such a law, and there it has been in effect for but six weeks. It is felt in motor circles that the Bay State has not had sufficient experience with the law yet to examine its effect. FEAR. RESULTS Among the reasons advanced against compulsory insurance by the automobile chamber, in which the motor club, dealer and other automobile groups concur, are: (1) Compulsory insurance creates an accident burden among the less-punishable because it would remove the present fear of financial loss, which tends to hold the reckless in shock. (2) No evidence exists to show the total amount of uncompensated losses due to motor vehicle accidents. The great majority are being penalized to Following the recent channel swim when interest was at its high, Walter Jr, and an unknown rousettort both colored, returning to the mainland on the boat get into an argument as to who was the best swimmer. To settle it the captain of the steampan decided to hold a long distance race for the two on an appointed date. "You," Gordon trained faithfully in the gym, "Gordon trained faithfully and arrived in his dad's Hudson on at the point of starting, down at Can Pedro. Having to walk for the arrival of his challenger he decided to get humbered up and proceed to swim across the channel and back a few times. Finally the roundabout appeared loaded down with carned goods string on his shoulders, a ham and 15 or 20 leaves of bread, 2 watermelons, several cooked chickens and a case of beer. He looked at the young and handsome Mr Gordon in his dashing, bathing suit and then loudly exclaimed: "Man am you carrying no vitals?" "Vitals!' no, what do I want with grub to swim this face?" says the astute Mr. Gordon. "Well," said the routabout, "you don't need ask me for none of mine cause my first stop is going to be Liverpool, my next stop Liverpool, England." Mr. Gordon changed his mind and attended the "Y's" Basket Ball Contest last Saturday night, while his challenger who couldn't swim a Jack laughed as he told the Avenue how he called his bluff.

You're right. Received a mental telepathy communication from Mr Noah D. Thompson a day or so ago and he says one needs a car in N. Y. more so than in California and that he is going to get one.

LIMITED PARKING There are certain places where the limitation upon parking is a time limit rather than a purpose limit. There is a forty-five (45) minute limit and a sixty (60) minute limit. The forty-five minute limit obtains in the central traffic district, and runs from 7 o'clock in the morning until 4:30 in the afternoon. The central traffic district, slightly adjoined, takes in those streets between Ninth and the south, Sunset boulevard on the north, Figueroa street from Ninth to Fourth, and Hill streets from Fourth to Temple streets on the west and Los Angeles street on the east. The sixty minute limit obtains in any business district between the hours of 7 o'clock in the morning and 6 o'clock in the evening. A business district is any block in which fifty per cent or more of the frontage is used for wholesale or retail business purposes and, when so established by the board of police commissioners, any block immediately adjacent to the district. PARKING SIGNS REQUIRED The board of police commissioners is required to erect and maintain signs designating the limited parking provisions. A combination of the time limte and purpose limit is found in the central traffic district between the hours of 4:30 P. M., and 6 o'clock P. M. of any day except Sunday. During these hours it is unlawful to park any place in the central traffic district, except for a period of time necessary to load or unload passengers or materials. Not more than three minutes is allowed for the loading or unloading of passengers and not more than twenty minutes for the loading or unloading of merchandise. It has been found necessary, in order to expedite the movement of traffic through the Second street tunnel, to forbid parking on Second street between Broadway and Spring between the hours of 7 o'clock A. M. and 1 o'clock C. M. of any day except Sunday. Loading or unloading of passengers or materials is permitted, but not more than twenty minutes, or the other, but this permission excludes only between the hours of 9 o'clock A. M. and 8 o'clock UNLIMITED PARKING Strictly speaking there is no place in the city where there is unlimited parking; for Section 29 of the ordinance makes it unlawful to park a vehicle on any street for a period of time longer than thirty minutes between the hours of 2 A. M. and 4 A. M. of any day. The object of this provision is to prevent all night parking. The street department complains that all night parking prevents the proper cleaning of the streets, therefore this provision. A short parking period between these hours is permitted as to enable doctors or others on emergency calls to attend to them. N. E.

There seems to be world pride conspiracy to conceal the facts that prove the greatness of the Negro race before the ruin of the slave trade. So successful has it been that the average Negro of today thieves that he sprang from jungle anewwork. The suppression of truth has made world crimes against dark people equally possible. The race is held in low estimation because of this hidden truth, that race genius must uncover. Though today more favored races seem at the apex of human accomplishment in earlier ages, the wheel of definite carried upwards that now seem hopefully under. To wipe away the black stain of the slave trade, modern literature has represented the slave trader as having trafficked in deprived human beings. Today the lower types of the Aryan race look upon them as specimens fit only for spoil on, to fill the coffers of the colonial renegade who could not succeed at home. Were Ethiopian nature understood these crimes, would cease. (By A. N. P.) Sk's with coil and rainproof boots attached are being introduced.

He has demonstrated his courage to the utmost, he has scaled the dizzy heights of the Sierra Nevada Mountain range and landed, although a forced landing, but a safe one, on the plains of Utah at Salt Lake City. There are possibly only a very few who can visualize this hazardous undertaking and the tremendous odds against its success, yet in the face of it, practically without any finance at his command bought and paid for an air plane, cared for incidentals in preparing for the hop off to New York City and has actually made one third of the distance and without the mihap of a frozen motor would have triumphantly landed in New York as per schedule, for he surely had encountered and passed safely through the most dangerous part of his journey, that of the dangerous air pockets and cross currents of the Sierra Nevada Mountain range. We take off our hats to this youthful and intrepid young man and pray for his success and will do all in our power to help him on his way to make worth while history for the race. There are not many police officers of the calibre of Captain L. L. McClarey who has just been transferred from the Newton Street Station to another division. He was an executive who accomplished things, a man who can bring order out of disorder, a man who gained the respect of the people by enforcing the law and held the friendly feeling of the law breaker for showing him that crime doesn't pay. For more than 15 years we can testify to vice conditions as they have existed in the territory in which Newton Street Station is located and we can state from a personal knowledge that conditions during his regime have been by far more satisfactory in the history of that time. This condition has been wrought skillfully and surely by a fair and square deal for all people. Captain McClary has been in touch at all times with the people and they have co-operated with him to the end that this particular division has been as near 100 per cent as it has been possible to be. He goes from the district with the benediction of a grateful people upon him for his leadership in bringing law and order out of a chaotic condition and their best wishes for success wherever he may go.

HE WAS BORN ON JANUARY 15, 1920, IN BROOKLYN, N.Y., AND WAS BORN TO MARY ELIZABETH MAYER. HE WAS THE SON OF THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN, N.Y., WAS BORN ON JANUARY 15, 1920, IN BROOKLYN, N.Y., AND WAS BORN TO MARY ELIZABETH MAYER. The Negro singers, Rosamond Johnson, baritone, and Taylor Gordon, tenor who will present a program of the moving Negro songs known as spiritua's at their concert on Sunday afternoon, March 18th at the Philharmonic Auditorium, are highly accomplished musicians, who have devoted their lives to the study of music and research in the folk-lore of their people. Mr. Johnson was born in Jacksonville, Florida, and began to study music under his mother's guidance when he was only four years old. After a period he went to the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, following which came an extended training in Europe. His piano work was with Charles F. Dennel and Mme Dietrich Strong, the organ with George Whiting, his harmony under Carl Reissman and Davenport Kerrison. The study of the voice was carried on the direction of William Dunham and Clarence R. Ashenden. Boston was the scene of Mr. Johnson's professional debut after which the singer returned to Jacksonville where he became supervisor of music in the public schools. A tour of the United States and Europe occupied some time, and, while in Europe, Mr. Johnson served as director of music in Hammerstein's London Opera House. On his return to this country he became head of the Music School Settlement for colored people in New York City. Other posts have been held by this baritone, as, for example, that of director of the singing orchestra of Mrs. Emelle Hapgood's Colored Players in New York. During the war Mr. Johnson served in the United States Army, holding tion or resist it and overcome it. He may be nothing more than an animal, he may be a saint. He may be a devil or he may be a son of God. He stands at the parting of the ways. One road leads upward and onward, higher and higher to the Holy City; the other is the broad way on which so many travel that leadeth to destruction. It is during Lent that these thoughts come home to us with greater eagerness, for we are brought face to face with the struggle and temptation our blessed Savior underwent to lead us back to God. Can any one look at Christ n the wilderness and say there is no stich thing as temptation? Can any one stand at the foot of the cross and say that there is no sin in the world? The conflict there is too real to be denied. As our representative the Saviour underwent temptation, as our representative He carried His cross. You and I, too; if we are to be true men, must resist temptation; you and I must bear our cross; you and I must devolve our character. The power for good that renders in this precious season, with its more frequent services and its greater spiritual opportunities, will come to us with an influence that will prove its power to meet our individual necessities and lead us nearer to God and a dutiful life. May we all be earnest in keeping these forty days, that we may rejoice together at Easter in the risen life. Your Friend and Priest. Mr. Gordon's musical education also started with his mother. As he had his first inspiration as a small child from listening to Mr. mother's crooning the spirituals. She was noted for her ability as a leader of camp-meeting songs in the seventies at their home in Kentucky. When, in 1915, Mr. Gordon came to New York, he began to study under his present colleague at the Music School Settlement for Colonel People. This training has happily not robbed Mr. Gordon of the essential qualities of true Negro singing—a power to throw himself into the spirit of the spirituals, retaining all their dignity, a capacity for natura, and a sincere feeling, and a true naivete. His birth and training have combined to make Mr. Gordon one of the best, the most authoritative interpreters of spirituals now giving public performances. and Excelsior Mining Company of Monroeville.

Merchandise and passengers were to be carried over, gold and other precious, metals, rubber, diamonds, and food-stuffs to be exported and delivered at ports of call, the dives to go to the investors at home awaiting the easily acquired wealth. The date of sailing set first for September was set back from time to time while the promoters still sold stock. To elmax and exposure came when the white general manager and financial adviser, Banks, was arrested in the Y. M. C. A. at San Pedro. He had been selling commissions entitling the owners to a place on the Chipals crew of sufficient rank to assure them a place on the officers mess at $60 a head.

MODERN EQUIPMENT, SYMPATHETIC AND ECONOMIC SERVICE TO ALL BONG! GOES THE GONG With just a few hours from now the gladiators will spring into the great Wrigley Field Arena Saturday night, March 5th; for one of the greatest boxing shows ever given on the coast, Bert Colima, the dashing Mexican, pride of the Spanish population, as well as the majority of the other nationalities in California, will settle for good and all the question of supremacy between himself and the great Ace Hudkins, "The Nebraska Wildcat. Equal in tense interest is the ten round bout between Long Tom Hawkins, the great colored San Diego light heavy weight swapping wiped wallops, with the famous Tony Fuente. Fuente made a bounce start for the championship a little while ago but after a brief set-back he is out in front again with a world of followers behind him. As for Hawkins, he is the man who sailed big Neil Clisby out into the audience like a kite down at San Diego weak before last. The colored people of the border town consider him already world's champion and the hotels here have contained half of San Diego, here to see their "Long Tom" against the Mexican battler. With the weather in his favor Dick Donald should be able to add from five to ten thousand dollars to his gate by changing to Act Huddle-Hert Coquina light, scheduled to take place at Wright Field on March 4th from an afternoon to an evening light. Dick favors the afternoon battles, but so many protests were filed by fans who have to work on Saturday afternoon and who wanted to witness the battle that he decided to change the hours. By delaying the bout Colima will have an advantage. Bert signed the articles to weigh in at 150 pounds at 10 o'clock the morning of the bout. His manager, "Dutch" Meyers, refuses to change the weighing in time and when Bert enters the ring he will have had almost 12 hours in which to pick up weight. Clyde Hudkins argued about the change and insisted that Bert weigh in at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, but the "Dutchman" refused to accede to his demands. A moving picture company made arrangements to take pictures of the main event for a big, light picture which is now being filmed. Donald has arranged to have a long canvas stretched from one end of the upper stand to the other to protect the customers from the cold. His lighting was installed the day before the battle. The advance sale has been the greatest of any show this season for as a rule most every one waits till the last few days. When Dick Donald made the match between Ace Hurlkins and Bert Godina which is scheduled to take place at Wrigley Field on the evening of March 5th, he figured that his regular amount of seats in the infield would be sufficient to take care of the crowd. Nine days before the fight Donald was completely swamped and he issued a plea to his regular customers for whom he reserves seats to tindy pick up their reservations as quickly as possible. tention of Mr. Mitchell a day or two after his arrival. Forbes was watching the boy work out at the Main Street gym and his attention was attracted to his natural easy movements and the fighting instinct he showed. Hearing his remarks concerning the boy Mr. Mitchell offered to take him in hand provided the great handler of pugilists would supervise his training. This he agreed to do so Pierce is under the careful training of Johnny Forbes and Ted Frenchie. Frenchie was one of the Coast's best fighters up until about three years ago when he quit the ring. Forbes who is also training Mickey Walker has been a trainer and coach of champions for years having had the great Jack Britton, Harry Forbes, Louis Kid Kaplan and many others. Mr. Mitchell is well known in New York in the big sport circles and his father was one of the prominent figures of the old circus days. The boy Pier on whom he has centered his activities will be brought along carefully for a while but all who have seen him box prophecy that he will in the near future be one of the great figures of the ring. A man is running away from a man who is trying to steal his money. good a "straight" as you may find, sings in good voice, carries his lines clearly and distinctly. The Revue could hit the road right now. Here it is; "Sweet" Baby Dorothy (somebody will steal that cute little girl yet! She is getting better and better!) "Pearless Pauline" her teammate. These two are a perfect team in size, weight, height, pop and harmony in voice and movements. Pauline is very cute. There hasn't been enough said about her but there will be. Maybe in electric lights some day. She's just a kid yet. A letter received at the desk today from Mr. E. W. Smith, Catalina Island complimenting our story of the Channel Swim, also the J. Ponder Pullman Porter article. He informs us that the row-boat race across the Channel in June is a reality and preparations are being made for a $5,000 prize to the winner. He also suggests that we have an entry in the race which we undoubtedly will. Mr. Smith was for a number of years on the Chicago American and is one of the most enthusiastic booters for the Shiff Skimmers Derby of all who have become interested in it. The event will be of great interest to every following as it will on the heels of the Swim Marathon, and although not aspiring as much interest yet will draw many people to the ships that follow the rewaters and the tractors freeway to reach the finish. Owing to the people the rewaters will keep the Derby will probably be finished in daylight. Several Beach cities are interested to his extent of contributing to the prize. ALL BASEBALL PARKS FOR NEGRO NATIONAL LEAGUE BEING IMPROVED All he parks at which the N. N. L. teams play are being enlarged with the prospects of a great season. Except for Muslobech Field at Katsam City, the home of the Monarchs, which is a new and nearly perfect held, oil will be greatly enlarged. Owner, Lewis, of the Memphis Red Sox, let the contract last week for the enlargement of his grand stands. The park at Memphis is one of 'the finest plants owned by a rate magnet. HERBERT DIXON Who leaves for Japan as soon as do Five Other Giant Players. The increased stands will add more than 8,000 to the seating capacity. Mr. John Rosine, the owner of Mack park in the city of Detroit, which is used by the Detroit Stars, has started to rebuild the grand stand. A new fence is now being built and work on the stands will start in time for the opening of the season. The American Giants park at Chicago is due for great improvement and Mr. John M. Schorling has stated that he will do everything in his power to give the Chicago fans one of the finest parks in the league. Two new dugouts for the players, one of the many improvements will be made of ones, and a new club being built. Copper Field, the home of the new Cleveland Club, has one of the best club houses and stand in the league, and the new owners are going to add several improvements. Dr. Joe R. READING TO THIS THING I CAN DO BALL FACE BASEBALL! Johnson states that there will be a monster blower's banquet next month at Cleveland, at which time some of the most prominent citizens of the Ohio City will take part. President Hueston and Secretary Glimson will attend and efforts will be made to have several of the leading sport writers there for this big occasion.

GIRLETICS By: GLADYS MATHONICAN What with Fashion Shows, track meets, parties "ete", it has been difficult to find time to garner news this week although there was plenty. What we want to talk about another time is of the glorious, exhilarating, and beneficial exercise of dancing. What we deplore is the Race Girls in Annual track meets last week conspicuous by their absence. ```markdown ``` Girls Star In Sports Co-eds of the University of California at Los Angeles are indulging in the four sports which are popular on the campus at this time of the year. The California co-ed, clad in the summeriest of garments and carrying her how and arrows, may amuse herself by tripping out on the green in front of Millepash Hall to improve her aim in archery. The archery classes at the university attract much attention because of the novelty and the picturesqueness of the sport. Miss Laura Payne is the former head of archery at the University of California at Los Angeles. She participated in the Pacific Coast archery exhibition contests of last year and plans to enter this year's contest in the C.A.A. exhibition their skill at the Coliseum on February 5th, where an athletic program was given for the entertainment of the Canadian visitors to the Southland, under the auspices of the Canadian Tourists' Association. If she prefers the more strenuous sports the California girl may go out on the basketball court to practice, for the ensuing inter-class combats, or she may go in for the more unusual game of field hockey, which is rapidly gaining in popularity on the campus. According to Miss Carol Fletcher, swimming is the most delightful of all sports, while Mollie Olerich brought honor to Southern California when she carried off third place in the ten-foot dive in the Olympic contests of 1924. She is looking forward with a great deal of pleasure to the next Olympics, in which she hopes o take part. Young Harry Wills May Get By Lew Tender May Be Not Next Tuesday night Jack Doyle is presenting a cross-word puzzle for the fans. Whether Young Harry Wills can get by the tough, rams and clever Lew Tender, veteran of the ring or whether the younger Wills will be able to offset Lew's ring experience, remains to be seen. Both men are in great shape and a monster crowd will follow the San Diego boy from the "\levend" to see him go. Willie Henry the Texas steer who broke Kid Worfolk's jaw in Galveston a few weeks ago, boxes on the same card.

It was told around the Avenue that a certain colored fighter whose people live on of town only sent his mother $30.00 out of a parse of several thousand dollars after a recent win.

Dust from the Campus By: LAWRENCE F. LAMAR Hoh, Gang! Look at this. Who do you think is the editor of this, the California Eagle paper? Then, that's it, everybody knows, J. B. Mass is the editor; but that isn't just what I was hinking at. [The people out at the Shrine Auditorium, where the Miracle Play is showing, thought not so. The reason being that someone else had presented in person, a previous claim to that position to them. Now, we do not know positively who this was, but we have our strong suspicions, as o the identity of the little light-completioned, red-headed and officious appearing young fellow, who presented himself as the proper person to receive newspaper compliments from the theatre management. We think, Gang, when one has severed connections with anything, he should not continue to have himself appear otherwise. Now, our editor and the whole staff is out of luck for tickets, and someone stands the possibility of telling the judge why the misrepresentation. Take care, young man! Walter Towns upon whom Boosevelt High pins her hopes for the city track championship, was defeated again in the dual meet between that institution and Pasadena Hi. Welch, who besides holding the California and Southern California record in the hurdles, has equaled the world's prep time, again proved Towns nemesis. Towns says, after he wins the city he will be the winner in the Southern California. Go to it Towns, you're a good loser, now make yourself a good winner. Kenneth Levy, freshman spinner at U. C. L. A., continues to improve as a star in the 100-yard dash and the 220. In the dual meet with Inglewood Hi, he won handily both events, romping home for the good time of 10.1 for the century and 22.3 for the 220. Git, boogah, git. Look what I found way down here at the beach, Gang. There are six boys of our group at Santa Monica Hill and everyone of them has made good in some commendable activity; some record, eh? 100%. Two are members of the football team, Fred Whitley plays right guard and Roff Tucker, right half. Nathanial Rucker, Fred Whitley and Roff Tucker are fast track men. Nat. Rucker running in 10 in flat and the 220 in 22.3. Roff Tucker playing the squirtball in 10 flat, Fred Whitley making it one two, three. Johnnie Rucker stars in the field meets, hurling the discus 103 feet and tossing the shot 43 feet. Venice H squeezes in here also for some recognition, with Lloyd Reese 440 yard dash man, who steps it in 53.4. Southern Branch, U. C., will meet some strong opposition Friday in these boys from the Bay District, in their dual meet. The Branch is pinning its hopes on Kenneth Levy, to hold up their gendir in the face of the attack. She's her sister's in Rucker and Tucker. All our boys, that git him, won't it, Gang? Struth. --- John Pettigrew and William Crain want to know what do you mean "trombone". They only care for violin music, its so aristocratic. We will close 'now, altho' we hate to tear ourself away from the typewriter. (Aeson Fable). The Wood Chopper Gets Chopped The young Master put over another school session on Tuesday night last at the Olympic Auditorium by teaching Dode Bercot the finer points of being a south paw. Bercot would have been dangerous against a less brainy man but Gans out-figured working away from that left and leading with his right, landing six and seven blows solidly to Bercot's jaw without a return. Bercot was in bad shape when the towel mercifully saved him from further punishment. Gans' is billed to fight Tommy. O'Brien at last. The bout will take place at the Olympic Auditorium on the 28th. Given Six Months For Peonage Realizing the consistent demand for its high class goods and its inadequate facilities to meet that demand, the Pennsylvania Rubber Co. has enlarged its drafts, services, and shipping departments to take care of this growing demand. In arriving at this conclusion it was not without consideration of their reputation of efficiency. They therefore imported one of their experts in this line to supervise and manage the same. The company is to be congratulated upon its ability to recognize worth and efficiency, not only in the manufacture of its goods, but also efficient service in the personnel of its employer. Such is the reward of Mr. Belley Bowen of Kansas City, Mo., who has served this company for several years, and is held in very high esteem by his company. He comes to our city to continue the service of the Co. in the capacity of traffic and Service manager which position requires a general knowledge of shipping, Billing and invoicing. His salary is commensurate with the responsible position he has. We welcome him and his family in our midst. Wields Axe on Rival (By A. N. P.) New Orleans, La. Feb. 28.—Claiming that Thomas Edwards was the third angle in a domestic triangle, Harrison Woodard wielded an axe and is charged with murder. The trouble is said to have been over Woodard's wife, Cora, who it is claimed was too friendly with Edwards. The police are now searching for the missing wife in order to clear up the mystery. PASADENA NEWS BY: Wm. MATT SOLOMON CIVIC LEAGUE PROPOSED After a careful canvas of the city to determine the Negro population and incidentally to determine the strength of the vote of our group, Judge O. O. Overr, formerly Justice of Peace of Allensworth, Cal, assisted by Mr. Littleton Baker and other influential citizens of Pasadena will set about to formulate plans for the inauguration of a organization among the Negroes of Pasadena to be known as the Civic League for the purpose of better acquainting those of our group wint the city activities and more impress them of the necessity of casting their ballot. Mr. Baker who did the canvassing expressed himself as being much pleased with the results and also of the solid support promised him is this attempt to get the people together. Mr. Baker is known among his many friends as being a tireless worker for the benefit of any proposition that will serve as a relief for our group from any embarrassment. Judge Overr of Allensworth fame needs no introduction to the public having 'made his reputation long ago as a prospector when that section of the country was first opened and who now owns more than a section in that district. It is hoped with the support promised this organization should be second to none of a similar nature with such men as Messrs. Baker and Overr at its head. More publicly will be given this organization as it progresses. They predict the largest vote to be cast in the current primaries than has ever been gotten out due to this canvass; if you have not registered get busy. Van Wiliams was taken suddenly ill last Sunday and had to be taken home suffering presumably from an aggravated attack of the Flu and was very sick Monroe but is reported as being better now. Mrs. E. O. Solomon addressed a large and appreciative audience last Sunday night at the Second Baptist Church from the subject: "A Challenge to the Church." Rev. James Washington of the A. M. E. connection was denied the right to conduct a Mission at Sunset and Hammond streets by the City Fathers. With the assistance of their master player, "Bick" Stocks the Junior College has won the Southern California championship and are now waiting for the Northern Division to finish their schedule that they may offer them a challenge. Rev. Chas. Hampton prescheated at Friendship at the morning and evening services last Sunday to appreciative congregations. In the afternoon the members from the First Baptist Church were present with their assistant pastor at which service Dr. Harper of the Southern California Convention prescheated a wonderful sermon from the subject: "And He went a little bit Further," beautifully portraying the events leading up to the Crucifixion. The results of the rally which occupied the minds of the parishioners during the day was very satisfactory though not quite up to the expectation of the officials but were most evident. Dr. W. R. Carter wonderfully handled the financial end. Wm. Hicka continues to improve from his recent illness. Rev. W. D. Carter, pastor of Friendship Baptist Church continues to improve though well confined at the Dunbar hospital. On Friday evening, February 25th at the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Hicka the Corona B. Hicka Club was hostess to their refiring and newly elected officers. The interesting feature of the evening was the very instructive messages given by the vice president, Mrs. B. Hicka. ex in a very pleasing manner, accompanied with Mrs. Edward years Margo Mattle Stafford, Supt. of Education and Mrs. Molly Moore, Charter member of the State Federation. Mrs. Stafford gave a beautiful mollie on her work. Mrs. Moore gave inspiring remarks. Mrs. S. H. Stafford, Supt. of business, gave an outline of hot work, which was interesting, simply seminars were given by the visitors. During the social hour, a very interesting program was rendered, after which Mrs Hicks then announced that they were informally celebrating their 24th marriage anniversary. The forty guests then showed them with many more years of happy married life. The house was attractively decorated with the season's flowers. THE RACCHLOR GIRLS CLUB Well, it has happened again. Anyone who attended the Mid-Winter Festival given by the Bachelor Girls at Christian Tavarn will tell you that they had a jam-up time. Dancing to the melody furnished by Mr. Lem Rene, playing whilst, and being served by Senoritas, Don Juans, and Bull Fighters. Most articles sold in the bazaar were made by Bachelor Girls. The Bachelor Girls Club thanks its many friends for their patronage. The next meeting of the Bachelor Girls Club will be held at the home of Miss Charlotte Cotton, East 49th St. Detroit, Mich., Feb. 26—It is estimated that more than ten thousand Negroes were insured recently in the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company by the General Motor Corporation for $1,000 each when that corporation insured all its employees, numbering 100,000 in which is said to be the largest group insurance, in point of numbers, ever taken out by any one company at one time. No examination was required and it only costs the insured 500 a month, the G. M. C. paying the balance. The employee is allowed to keep this insurance, at a little higher rate, after he leaves the employment of the company, which is a great advantage to many who otherwise might not have been considered good risks for this amount of insurance. There are many colored employees. IN "HAWKS" HANDS O She Louise Understand A little brown-skin woman from 1469. East 23rd, neatly dressed in gray cropped dress, tan coat and black hat sat nervously on the prisoners' dock in Judge Raymond Turney's Municipal Court. Her house had been raided during a party and liquor was found. It takes only a few minutes in Municipal court so the trial was over and fine assessed before the perturbed prisoner seemed to realize "Lucile Andrews", asked the judge, "how many members are in this club of yours". "Forty-two, sir," she answered. "Well then, can't you collect your fine from them pro rata, say at about $200 a head?" "No sir, we never play for money. It's just a whist club that meets once a month." "Well, as you are the president; I presume they will produce that sum, mused his honor." "Thank you sir. This is my first time and it will never happen again", said the trembling prisoner as she started out. "But wait there", exclaimed the judge. "You don't seem to understand. You have been found guilty of the Wright act and your fine is $80 or 20 days, and it will have to be paid now!" And thoroughly enlightened now, she burst into tears and sank down into a chair in prisoners' row again. John Wade dived in from Indian and was beaten at 1251 H 23rd St by officer Gaildall and Green for berry, transferred him from the Newton Street to County Jail. Walter Buss haked long upon the wine while it was sed in the cup, so Sergeant Feather and patrolman Henderson gathered him in at Yeh and Thine for drunkenness. Mrs Estelle Haarkin, 126th E. 29th Street had father in her possession in this dry state, so officer Cancellery took her and the oil of joy to Newton. Andrew Goiner was caught in the "Hawks Hands" at 1172 E. 12th by officer Brown for vagrancy and lawd. Chas Wagner was drunk at 51d and Central Wednesday, so officer Slaughter took him to the Newton Rest Home to sober up. Geo. Brown was an important capture made also by officer Slaughter on suspicion of burglary. He was found at 11th and Central. John Hersel also called the burglary game and officer McGruder got him at 1115 East 12th Street. Capt. Geo. McClary is now Captain of the Newton Street Station and will lend his very efficient services to continue in the excellent work performed from this station. ARCHITECTS Jas. A.

It is much easier to find money for our group than it is to find land. Therefore we are waging a relentless battle-not as BIG MOUTH would do it-but silent strategy, thinking, manouvering for position or advantage and at all times remembering that it is a poor general who does not plan a successful retreat and who does not plan to take the line of least resistance.

Civil War; the Negro in the World War; Negro migration; the Negro in Literature and art; proposed solutions; the future of the Negro, and paths of hope. In all, a comprehensive, careful study. One is impressed as one proceeds with Professor Dowd's sympathy with the colored people in many of their trials. He tells us that when he read Uncle Tom's Cabin he did not think it any more exaggerated than was legitimate in a work of art that was to convey a realistic impression. He has a strong chapter on lynching with a stirring rebuke to the clergy for failing to preach against this barbarous practice, they seeming to regard it as not comparable to the sin of card play or dancing or going to the theatre. He shows the sins of peonage and the iniquitous conditions in all our prisons. There is not an American penal institution he has seen that he would not like to scrap. Throughout the book one sees that it expresses the convictions of a humane, thoughtful man. Professor Dowd speaks strongly against these things that descent men all ovet the country condemn. But he is a conservative when he touches apparently less serious evils. He accepts segregation and political disfranchisement but he wants the Negro to know that the white race has the right to act as it does, not because the Negro is inferior, but because of the sense of "conscientiousness of kind," the inmate feeling that like must associate with like. The old superiority talk, the "Negro as a beast," oratory, is entirely lacking; but the stigma remains, it is given a socialical setting. I can only point out a few things in the volume that show, I believe, militates much against its importance. Though printed only a few weeks ago it is a book of yesterday. Its authorities belong in the past before the World War, Ray Stannard Baker, with them is Gilding sociology, as antiquated as Santa Claus. It "On the spiritual side, let alone the spread of Christianity among them, individuals have successfully sought and achieved higher education and a professional training in Europe and America. There are, e.g., some five or six medical men in the (South African) Union who are of pure Bantu descent; who have acquired their professional qualifications at Edinburgh and other good medical schools; who count both Europeans and Natives among their patients and whose professional conduct has never been impugned by the General Medical Council." Reciting the handcaps imposed by Europeans upon the native, and the obstacles in leaving one culture behind in order to conform to another, Professor Hoerle says: "Anyone watching the Native's progress at the present day with eyes not utterly unsympathetic will marvel rather that it should be going on at such a rate." The essential difference between white and black at present, Professor Hoerle believes to be due to different social traditions and not, in any way caused by difference in type or degree of intellectual capacity. Status of Native Agitates South Africa and Britain New York, Fez. 25.—Wide spread discussion throughout the British Empire accompanies the effort of white South Africa to dispose of the status of the native through the "color bar" and land bills proposed by General Hertzog.

"Labor tenants are to give 180 days service a year, without pay, by way of rent, instead of the 90 days required under the 1913 Act. They are to be employed only if licensed by a district Board; the license will be granted only for a year at a time, and the Board has power to ration farmers in the number of labor tenants they may retain . . . As has been been said it is not easy to forecast in detail the effect of lease provisions; their general tendency, however, is clear. By destroying his customary security of tenure by the imposition of heavy labor requirements, by taxation which is heavy in the case of the labor tenant and almost prohibitive in the case of the squatter, and by subordination to a district Board consisting of white farmers, in all probability with an official element, the native is to be shepherded into the ranks of the wage-worker." Professor Clay concludes that the proposed Bill represents "a reversal, not a completion, of the policy of the 1913 Act." the conductor in the concert employee of the John Wanamaker Store, Philadelphia. This is an organization formed for the educational, social and musical development of its members, as well as for the colored race within its sphere of influence. The National Association of Negro Musicians is co-operating. Mr. Wanamaker has divided his offer into five groups of five prizes each. In each group the first prize is $100; the second, $50; the third, $25; the fourth, $15, and the fifth, $10, thus making twenty-five prizes. The types of composition specified by Mr. Wanamaker are as follows: 1—A Hymn of Freedom. This number to be a four or more part chorus, either a capella, that is, without accompaniment, or with accompaniment for orchestra or piano. 2—A Love Song. This may be a song for any voice, soprano, tenor, contralto, baritone or bass (but only for one solo voice). The accompaniment may be for piano or orchestra. Or the composition may be a purely instrumental one for orchestra or for solo instrument. 3—A Lullaby. This number may be in the form of a spiritual, either an old tune with a new harmonization or an original composition. But the form and character of a lullaby must be maintained. It may be, as in No. 2, vocal or instrumental. 4—A rhythmical step, to be entitled "Presididigitation."

LITTLE TO CITIZENSOF COLOR Washington, D. C. (Special to the A. N. P.)—The $9th Congress of the United States, sputtered, fumed and finally drowned away last Friday, with the senate located in the decks grit of a millitaker over "Missouri." Reed's election investigation committee, while the house with witnessing the spe- cific of a southern democrat proposing the name of its republican speaker for president. Few congregants have accomplished so little. Some of the most important bills of the session were lost in the parliamentary battle occupying the last few days, among them the general deficiency bill carrying provisions of the utmost importance to veterans of the world war, farmers north and south as well as public building projects which would have released a flood of money into various cities and helped somewhat the unemployment situation throughout the country. Negroes must have viewed the 69th Congress with mixed feelings. Not a single measure, which might be construed as of especial benefit to the group, passed. The immigration quota bill became a law, controlling future immigration on the basis of the number of nationals already in America. This measure which takes effect in 1928 will restrict somewhat the quotas from northern European countries. The south opposed it untidely. Many well informed Negroes contend that while a few more foreigners will be admitted under the new law, they had rather see members of the latin races coming to America than those of the English and related nations. The former do not fit so well into the channels of national prejudice. Skilled workmen in northern cities claim that the English aristocrat is the most intolerant of any who come to America. The Western Bank Railroad labor bill backed by the Republican and Democrats alike took away the old railroad labor board under which the Negro railway workers had made repeated gains and substituted their machinery more difficult to manipulate. The Pulaski Porters have the first case on record before the new tribunal and they are managed with able leadership and counsel. Outlookers are waiting to see what they can accomplish. There was hope when the light came up in the senate over the seating of Frank L. Smith, senator-elect from Illinois, and William V. Vance of Pennsylvania, that it might reset to tilt the spotlight on unfair employment practiced in the South. The Democratic fighting to unseat three Republican Smith, Vare and Gould or Browne, expected if successful to gain control of the senate. They funged the senate behind the effort to continue during the summer the "Missouri" Road committee, which had uncovered the alush. In the hope that it would dig up still more material embarrassing to the Republican party, Southern senators, the Hodgkin Carrowey, Harrison and others of their ilk, everyone of whom sit in the senate in a framed tainted seat due to the nudification of the constitution in the states which they represent, insolate in Negro voters are concerned, rested loud and long about the sensitivity of the Senate and cast reproaches on the north for its money controlled elections. The Republicans, never have to stand up under the lash of the House confirmed in their seats, occasioned embarrassing in a half hearted debate up the matter of Negro demographics. ```markdown ``` The image provided is too blurry and low-resolution to accurately recognize any text.

Albritton-Jackson, Lyric Soprano, in Song Recital at the Second Baptist Church, Tuesday evening, March 22, 1927, benefit Building Fund. Commits Murder To Maintain Reputation As Hard-Boiled Gunman Prominent White Citizen Passes Away WIFE OF RETIRED BUSINESS MAN LAID TO REST The relatives and many friends of Mrs. Merriam Reagan, for many years A mere youth was murdered by Special Officer, Brown, employed by the West Coast Theatre, Inc. On last Monday evening Officer Brown in his attempt to eject Richard Harper and his boy companion from the building, someone struck him. He accused Harper, whereupon Harper is alleged to have run away from Brown who chased him outside the theatre, firing a bullet into Harper's back inflicting a fatal wound. Harper died a few minutes later upon the operating table at the Receiving Hospital. Several eye-witnesses testify that Brown was not pounced upon by a crowd of youngsters as one of the West Coast Theatre employees testified. The dying youth's statement was that he did not strike Brown but simply tried to get away from his grasp, which he succeeded in doing. Brown stated to Officer Kimbrough and Green that he was knocked down on the sidelines and pounced upon by eight other boys and when he got to his feet he was no blind from blood and crime that he didn't know which way he was shooting, but just shot and his victim happened to be Richard Harper. Evidence introduced at the coroner's inquest tended to show that Brown had a chip on his shoulder for this young man. Harper was a high school youth of only 18 years. He was popular among his school and club friends. He had never been in trouble before and bore a good reputation. Brown, is noted for his promiscuous use of his gun; this is the third youth he has shot or attem; ad to shoot. Just is few months ago he shot and wounded a high school football star. Brown is being held for murder. Every penny collected we guarantee to be used for the purpose of adding and assisting this young, man in completing his journey by air to New York, thereby not only achieving signal credit for himself but establishing a precedent for all time that Los Angeles race people have produced the first member of the group in the world to make such a flight. The Volunteer Committee to raise the needed funds for the succor and relief of this intrepid youth is composed of Dr. H. C. Hudson, Dr. Albert Baumann, and Editor J. B. Bass. Dr. Hudson has spared no effort and worked incessantly in the premises. Dr. Baumann likewise, has been of great service and enthusiastically supported the effort. Dr. Gregg of the Independent Church; Dr. Shaw of Wesley Chapel; Dr. Griffith of the Second Baptist Church; The Exclusive Thirteen Club; and individuals have responded. Between this and Monday the Committee must raise at least $200.00. Other churches and individuals and organizations have signified their intentions to help the cause; therefore on Monday we are satisfied, the people will make it possible for the amount needed to go forth and by Tuesday Mr. Foreman will resume his flight. The relatives and many friends of Mrs. Merriam Reagan, for many years a citizen and resident of Long Beach and Los Angeles were shocked to learn of her recent passing at the family residence, 2305 West 6th St., this city. The committee, in order to confirm the reported situation, sent the following telegram to Rey. R. H. Harbert, pastor of the A. M. E. Church, at Salt Lake City: While her illness was of a protracted nature she having been in falling health for several months her passing was somewhat of a surprise to most everyone. Mrs. Reagan was a woman of sterling quality, high ideals and a pleasing personality. Willing and ready at all times to assist in an unassuming manner any worthy cause. Prominently active and associated with yester-year's affairs she at the time of her death led a retired life with her husband, Mr. John C. Reagan whose name previously to becoming a citizen of California was a landmark in Colorado. Mrs. Reagan who had traveled extensively abroad at various intervals early became acquainted with the psychology of life, individuals, and races and was an interesting person to encounter as regarding information along such lines. She was a friend in the broader sense of humanity in general irregardless of race or creed. Mrs. Reagan was a native of Kentucky and became a resident of this state some years ago, locating in Long Beach and later in Los Angeles. Southern California in general, the cities of Long Beach and Los Angeles in particular, have lost in her passing a noble, honorable and upright citizen. A character whose life might be well for all, to try and emulate. Plain and impressive services were held on last Tuesday afternoon at the little church in Forrest Lawn, Glendale and interment was in every decked with many beautiful social offerings in the mausoleum toon of the deep cemetery in which she was born. The immediately family has the sympathy of the entire community. A GREAT TREAT COMING On Thursday evening, March 5th, the First A. M. B. Choir will present the First Baptist Choir (white) of which Roy Francis is the pastor, and Alexander Stewart, director in Concert. This choir is comprised of me. The other day, I had a long drawn out conversation with a friend of mine who has had long, experience in the Christian ministry, and who possesses a comprehensive grasp upon the general movements of the time. He is well versed in the traditional theological learning, and may be called a fundamentalist with modernist tendencies. That the Christian church as a whole is apostate to the principles, of the founder is a widely accepted belief. The World War furnished proof ample of this proposition. Let the theological adepts, if they can, point out upon what concept of Jesus this titanic struggle was waged. Christian cautioned that you cannot serve God and Mammon; the present day church elects to follow the latter. But perhaps the simplest test of the Christian creed is to be found in its missionary application. The so-called heathen, in all parts of the world, are repudiating the missionary's gospel because of the break down of his teachings in the home land. The heathen mind in its unsophisticated, state, is severely logical. A people who profess to follow a religion which proclaims—"thou shall not kill" must not kill ten millions of fellow professing Christians, and expect the heathen Chinese to be impressed with their moral consistency. A nation which boasts billions on top of billions need not expect the heathen mind to heed the preachment—"lay not up treasures on earth." When Christians, lynch other Christians because of the color of their skin, they need not deceive themselves that they are doing the will of Him whom they call master. Owing to the fact of the rare skill and courage of Ace Forman, race aviator, the good people of his home town are making it possible for him to resume his journey which was interrupted by his forced landing near Salt Lake City, caused by a frozen motor. On last Tuesday funds were sent to him for the needed repairs for his ship. After due investigation by persons whom Forman does not know, we can announce that his version of his flight to the capital is absolutely true, and further that the funds sent him, or requested to be sent, are absolutely essential to complete the repairs on his ship. Therefore we are asking for the people and organizations which have not contributed to this fund to do so at once that he may again take the air not later than next Tuesday. It has been his fondest hope, despite his delay, to reach New York Sunday the 15th. However, he is dependent upon the home folks, and cannot leave until the expense of repair has been paid. I spoke to a white audience recently on Christianity and Race, pointed out to them the amazing inconsistency between the professed principles and actual practice of the wealthy white Christian. If Jesus should come to Washington, the official of the great extant Christian nation, under the cruise of a colored man, how would he be received? The Christian proprietor of the great hotel would slam the door in his face. The Christian restaurant would give him no meat; the prophet of the dug store would give him no drink; he would find no welcome in a single white Christian home. If he sought Christian fellowship and made application for membership in any one of the churches which he died to establish, the plious priest who worships in his name, would point him to some little colored church around the corner, courteously pointing out that this church is for white Christians only to the exclusion of communicants of his color. The attempt to reconcile Christ and casts creed and color is a hopelessly impossible undertaking. The white Christian may indeed do those things, if he thinks he must, but the Negro must never let him deceive himself that he can do no and remain true to the gospel of the meek and lowly head of the Church. But let not the Negro profess Christian assume any spiritual superiority because he is disposed to this particular mode of apostacy. May he not practice other forms of apostacy which are just revolting to the pure and undefiled gospel which Jesus released for the guidance of the world? My learned friend and myself discoursed at length upon the effect of the doctrine of evolution upon the lapse of faith. It was my good fortune to hear the late William Jennings Bryan, in what I believe was his first important pronouncement upon this great theme. It was while he was on his western lecture tour in 1820, in Twin Falls, Idaho. He stated that Darwinism had underlined the faith and morals of the rising generation. There has raged bitter controversy about this proposition. Modernists and fundamentalists have driven each defining his view with hearts of controversy. But so far, as one has yet undertaken to dispute, much less in retute Bryan's basic proposition. I am an avowed evolutionist and have been ever since I was in my teens, and yet to me the laminate fact is too painfully apparent. Science, whether rightfully or wrongly intertwined, has treated the religious belief of the rising generation. It has weakened the authority of the Bible as our father's interpreted it without taking any other interpretation, will like condition in its stead. Darwinism will invariably prevail. Science will with it always have its place in his historical studies. Will science have a way to interpret the importance of science in the history of man? In our next issue the name of every contributor and the amount will be published, and the disposition of the same. "Rev. R. H: Harbert, 634 5th East, "Ace Foreman, race aviator, reported arrival in your city Tuesday. Badly damaged motor. We are raising funds for him. Want assurances that things are as represented. Kindly investigate and wire immediately to help us in our plans to help him. He is stopping at 359 West South Temple Street. "J. B. BASS." St. Louis, Mo., (Special to the A. N. P.)—Conrad Paeben, the white Poro receiver, has discharged two more Poro employees, one for many years the secretary of Mrs. Malone. Those who have lost their jobs thus far are Edgar McDonald, office mgr.; Chas. S. Stone, personnel manager; Mrs. A. H. Stevely and John L. Procope, a bookkeeper. These sudden dismissals together with a series of other high handed acts at Poro college have aroused all St. Louis to realize that the very perpetuity of the organization is threatened. From the start, the tactics of the received have shown how ill advised his appointment was. Though a lawyer, and ordinary type politician, Paeben, who it is said is a former hack driver, actually appears lenorent. He talks condescendingly to the employees, threatens and storms about and with some differences in deerge, acts, it is said, like a prototype of Simon Legrene. A different kind of man, would have gotten along very well at Poro, but Paeben's attitude is unfortunate. Ministers of the city, Baptist, Methodist, and of every persuasion, preached on Poro last Sunday morning. At staid St. Paul when Rev. Noah W. Williams, the pastor of Aaron E. Malone, and long his friend, finished the morning sermon on what Poro meant to the race, in which he condemned Malone's actions and ended with a tribute to Mrs. Malone for her accomplishment, the audience disregarded tradition and stood cheering. Rev. Williams proposed a mass meeting of St. Louis citizens to protest against the receivership and the threatened dispossession of Mrs. Malone. Paeben, accompanied by S. E. Garner, a colored attorney, who was named 'Attorney For-The Receiver' has even taken charge of the chapel services at Poro, where he lays down the gospel, perverting occasionally a bible quotation to suit himself. Recently he said, "To him who hath shall be given and to him who hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken away." He told the employees that "Loyalty to Poro Colleen means loyalty to me." He advised the employees "Pay no attention to what you see in Negro newspapers." "Some of the definite charges made against the received are that he had a check for Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) drawn in favor of himself. Mrs. Malone's lawyer, Mr. Kirby, hailed Paeben before the judge, Mason Hartman, and demanded to know what the receiver was going to do with the check. Paeben refused to tell, saying he would explain to the judge in private. Friday he returned the checked uncased to Poro. It is said that Receiver Paeben has taken personal charge of opening the mail at Poro, using a colored night-watchman, whom he recently hired, to assist him. Much of Mrs. Malone's personal mail has been opened, according to rumor, which also explains because of her close relationship with the business, that many agents write Mrs. Malone personally. Paeben probably finds it hard to understand the brethren. In an effort to ingratiate himself, he takes Mr. Garner with him every morning on a board of the departments and steps to smile and get from each employee a "good morning" attorney. Garner charged by word with instigating the dismissal of Mason McDonald and Stone, streamlined denies it. Mr. Garner, with his practiced here several years, formerly was a resident of Mississippi, where it is said he was well known. Citizens here are awaiting March 11, the day of the next hearing, almost with moral breath. AMONG OUR CHURCHES PROGRESSIVE BAPTIST CHURCH 1545 East 22nd Street REV. H. B.

JONES Pastor Christ Temple Church 55th and Hooper THE POWER OF A RISEN SAVIOR "All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth." - Matt. 28:18. ¹ The disciples had found out that Jesus of Nazareth was the Savior of the world. The truth of this had been revealed into the hearts by the Spirit of the Father. Matt. 16:16. And he assured that nobody gets hold of this precious truth but by whom it is imputed to him. "No one comes to me," said Jesus, "except my Father draw him." WHAT POWER MEANS Now power in the New Testament translates two Greek words, one meaning "force," the other meaning "authority." The one expresses the ability to make things happen, to remove obstacles and change conditions. The other does the will to fulfill things done so that see that other things are not done. Force and authority. Now the word used here by the Savior was exoulae and meant authority. But since all authority in heaven and earth was given to him, the put all dunamin, "force," at His command. The word used expresses the Savior's heaven-given right to be King of Kings and Lord of Lords, "angels, principalities and powers being subject unto Him." ALL POWER HIS The salvation of the soul, the in- dwelling of the Spirit, the earnest and real of same, the healing of diseases, the conquest of the nations by gospel truth, the resurrection of the dead, the final dispositions of eternal judg- ment, all hung upon this declaration of cur risen Lord, "all power (authority) is given unto me in heaven and near earth." POWER LOST These disciples had seen Him in great power. They had seen the wind and the sea obey Him. They had seen disease of the most malignant nature change to health at His word. They had seen death give up its prey at His presence and command. They had seen the multitude on His words at a time. Then they had seen the tide turn. Like Simson, his strength had become as that of another man He had been condemned as a malacteron on false evidence. He had been lasht like a slave. He had been convicted of heresy and blasphemy. He had been denied, ridiculed, spat upon, then crucified. He had died copied that He was tormented of God as well as men. He had left His followers pitifully humiliated. POWER REGAINED But now arisen from the seed, He makes them know Him, and permitting to leaves them to be the salt of the earth, the light of the world, the preachers of salvation. He ensured them that He has gained more than He had. All power in heaven and earth was now given to Him. WHO BELIEVES? It is such a Savior that we trust and preach and follow that we believe in and love and rejoice in. He power, His blessings are all our now for the asking, not mere tongue asking, but the asking of faith. Do you believe in Him? Is He so to you? Whom having not seen you love, hate Peter. Do you believe in His resurrection? Do you love Him? What life should you to Him? How a good thing should you to Him? How a good thing should you to Him? How a good thing should you to Him? Rev. B. C. Calvert Rev. B. C. Calvert of Jackson, Mississippi is conducting a soul stirring series of revival meetings at the Birch Street Christian Church, corner 14th and Birch Streets. The meetings began February 27th, and will run to March 27th. Rev. Calvert is living up to his national reputation for saving souls and are urged and welcome to hear him. Colne, hear the unadulterated gospel preached with fire and force. He came to earth and bought us a great salvation. This salvation is in Him—in great or gifted men or women, not even in Mosque and Elijah but in Him. The authority of it is His, the force, the might of it is His. The glory of it is His. They who love Him enjoy it. RIVAL POWERS Now Science and Art and Wealth and human organization and religious cults and governments, these claim authority. They are reaching after the domination. They are trying to undermine His word and make Him the minister of sin and the author of human misfortune; but the refuge of His shall be swept away. I, 28 "Jesus shall reign wherever the sun doth. He is excessive journeys run, His kingdom spread from shore to shore, Till moons shall wax and wane so more." They call Science the handmade of religion. She was once, maybe, but now the handmade wants to be the whole show. She is trying to usurp the house. She is the handmade of sub每日, the mother of pride and death and irreverence and irreligiosity. She is no longer careful to make this claim, that of handmade to religion. She claims truth as her. Her discoveries have deceived her heart. Her covets are declaring her the light of the world. It is a dark world of war, as a dark future. Mind not High things, Jesus said, "I am weak and weary of heart. Come to me and I will give you rest. Let's go to Him. Try Him out. Push His claims, Know Him and tell the world about Him. Give Science her due, but follow her vagaries. Stick to Jesus. "Al power is given unto me." Yea, but men must have faith, in that power if they would, he benefited thereby. Have you His faith? O, I know Science is not help. You don't have to be born again, to follow her. She is therefore easier to believe and follow and worship. But she leaves you where she found you—in death. She has for you no heaven, no future glory, no compensation for your sufferings here, no reward for holiness, no incentive to goodness. She leaves you in darkness. For a few old bones and a few mental vagaries and a few deadly inventions that complicate life and make it a little easier, she jobs you of eternal glory. Jesus saves from all this and changes the useful nature into a holier one. Let's try Min cut. O believe and be saved. You'll never regret it. THE BIG GOSPEL TENT Sunday night, March 13th at the BIG GOSPEL TENT, 20th and Central Ave., the Evangelist Pastor, P. G. Rogers will present a stereopticon mermon entitled "WITHIN THE EIL."

Formal announcement was made yesterday (Monday) by Judge G. F. Bush of his candidacy for retention on the municipal bench, "office number 9" being the new official designation of the department in the municipal court in which the candidate is presiding. In recognition for the debt which Judge Bush feels that he owes his aged uncle Charles W. Tabor, a retired attorney now living in Hollywood, the judge dispatched a special message to Mr. Tabor stating his decision to seek election and giving the uncle credit for much that the years have brought both to Judge Guy Bush and his twin brother Eli E. Bush, an attorney also residing in Los Angeles. "You thought enough of us two harum-scarum boys to give us the money that made possible our course at the University of Michigan," the message said in part. "Without that faith and without your unfailing counsel we could not have accomplished what we have. Your peculiar integrity and high sense of honor manifest all through your law practice have been a guide and inspiration to me, because of your generosity toward me and my brother. I want to take this occasion to say that your faith in me has made it possible for me to reach the judge's bench and I hope, that I may be worthy to continue in that position." Judge Bush graduated from the University of Michigan in 1906 and was admitted to the bar in Michigan in 1909. Two years later he was admitted to the bar in California and practiced law in Los Angeles from that date until his appointment to the municipal court bench by Governor Richardson. The judge is a member of the state and local bar associations; the Temple Baptist Church, Masonic Club, University Club, Brotherhood Club, and the Electric Club. He is a trustee of the Temple Baptist Church and vice-president of the Los Angeles Baptist City Mission Society. Mrs. Bush is a noted singer and is prominently identified with various Los Angeles musical organizations and women's clubs.

He is the son of Carl and Emma Mar- THE NEW YORKER chetti. The family has been well known in civic and commercial circles in Los Angeles for over 2 years. Joseph Marchetti attended the Los Angeles Grammar School and graduated from the Manual Arts High School. He is also a graduate of the University of Southern California College of Law. During the World War, he enlisted and later served in the United States Navy. He was later associated in the practice of law with his brother, Roger Marchetti.

In 1923 Joseph Marchetti was first appointed a deputy district attorney by District Attorney Asa Keyes and assigned o the trial of cases. Commenting on his trial in this office, Mr. Keyes said: "The work which Judge Marchetti did while there, was splendid. He was a most successful prosecutor, possessed of a good, active legal mind, had wonderful court presence and exercised unusual judgment in all matters assigned to him." Announces Candidacy To Succeed Himself In City Council Councilman Otto J. Zahn announces he is standing for election representing the Tenth Council District. My long experiences and participation in civic work and a lifetime acquaintance with Los Angeles, her problems, her progress and political knowledge, has made my work in the City Council no experiment but a record of accomplishments. I have now to offer, in addition, the experience that two industrious years have given me. I believe I can serve you better than could a new person, who must be broken in, and that it would be poor economy to waste the experience I have had. I am a native son, a Mason and a member of a church, and belong to several clubs and associations. I am a taxpayer and property owner and am at your service for the district.

Houston, Secretary of the company. Increases in All Departments The company for 1928 had new paid for life insurance of $261,400.00 and issued 2797 health and accident policies on the monthly plan during the year. The total income was $60,794.40, an increase of 78% over the previous year, the company paid claims to the amount of $16,789.87, placed in reserves the amount of $6,145.57 for the protection of policy-holders and closed the year in a strong position by showing $16,752.09 surplus to its members. Helps Employment During the year the Golden State paid to 54 employees $33,571.20 thereby becoming the largest employer of Negro help of any of the life insurance companies operating in California regardless as to size or age. The roll shows clerks, stenographers, agents, officers, superintendents, claim adjusters and medical examiners as being employed. By its continued growth the company expects to become a dominating factor in employment in the State. Mortgage Loans Although funds for mortgage loans are just becoming available the company already has over $15,000.00 loaned on homes owned by Negroes. According to reports the Golden State has the unique position of being the first life insurance company to make mortgage loans direct on Negro property in California, as there are millions of dollars of life insurance money used yearly in California to help build up this great commonwealth this record becomes all the more noticeable. Comments By Insurance Examiners In December of 1926 three examiners from the Insurance Department of California carefully examined all records of the company. In their report to the insurance Commissioner they said: m "The accounting and statistical records are clearly and concisely kept. We have made an examination of their clims and find that they have been rendering prompt service to their policy holders. Our examination covered the business and affairs of the Company from the commencement of business in July, 1925 to November 30th, 1926. The Annual Statement of December 30, 1925, filed by the Company with the Insurance Department was checked with the Company's books, which we found to agree. The affairs of the Company are conducted under the capable management of Wm. Nickerson, Jr., President of the Company and assisted by a competent office staff." The Company at present operates three offices in the State, the Home Office located at 3812 Central Ave. Log, Angeles; Oakland Office at 793 Myrtle street, B. N. Hunigan Superintendent and Paisdene Office at 24 W. Dayton street, B. J. N. Superintendent. Plans are now being bounced to open several additional offices in this State before entry shall be made outside of California. A full life, endowment, health and accident policies are written and many opportunities exist for ambulance agents in the State. with the crew he is batting for his wife, your own encouragement. Since the time is gone his planting doves and renewing leaves why not give young Roland a chance? As a matter of fact the reason so many of our youth are vaguely discouraged is because of the non support and unco- nagement given them by those of our group. The single representatives in conference with Roland was apprais- ed of the information that he had not received but a little patronage from his own group yet we wonder why our boys don't make good; the employer lives with yourself. George has feww- ng plants of all descriptions for girls and of the better variety and who but ne- trouse him when you want anything in his jibs and encourages this youth? Not only can he raise Bowman but is known for his ability as basket ball player who made an enviable reputation while in the game. Let's get behind young Roland and help him make good. He could have chosen a vocation much less appreciative than the one he has chosen but his intentions are good and why not help him to de- velop them? Help your youth. At a mass meeting of the men of the church Sunday afternoon, in one of the departmental rooms of the church when more than 40 men were present, Dr. W. R. Carter addressed the men from the subject: "Man Power", which he very ably handled to the delight of the men. The occasion was the getting together of the men of the church preparatory to making a drive for members to the Bible School on Sunday mornings. The goal is for 100 men and the already organized Eusolian class has been divided into two parts with a captain to each. Of course there will be a friendly vying between the captains to reach the coveted goal. The names of the divisions are Los Angeles and the Shouandoah, with Mose Himhert and A. Barton as Captains respectively. You may look for great results as both sides say they are out in win.

JOHNSON AND GORDON IN PROGRAM OF NEGRO SPIRITUALS, THIS AFTERNOON The deep emotion and haunting beauty of Negro Spirituals will be revealed this Sunday afternoon at three when J. Rosamond Johnson and his wife, Marjorie, are to perform Los Angeles program in thme Philharmonic Auditorium. Johnson is one of the foremost Negro musicians who combines with most complete training, the musical talent of his race as well as the heart-affinity for the tunes of his people. A graduate from the New England Conservatory, conductor at Hammerstein's Greenwichwood, John Johnson devoted the last decade to making an authentic collection of Spirituals. Making an informal appearance with his friend and collaborator, Taylor Gordon, brilliant tenor ropato at the New York Music School Settlement, theirs was such success that at the encouragement of men like Damrosch and Stokowski they have turned research work into concert programs of unsturpased success. So popular have proved the Johnson-Gordon programs that one of the leading New York publishing houses has issued their collection of Spirituals. As no other collectors Johnson and Gordon have caught and preserved the subtle infections and delicate colors of melodies and harmonization. Tomorrow's concert will offer these fine instance or realism in Negro music, as Gordon has uniquely come to study them, his mother having been renowned a generation ago as the best singer of Negro melodies in the South.

NATIONAL CONFERENCE It is refreshing to note that the employed officers' National Conference of the Young Men's Christian Association which was to have been held at the West Baden Springs Hotel, West Baden, Ind., has been changed to convene at the Edwater Beach Hotel, Chicago, Illinois. The change was made on account of the unwillingness of the West Baden Springs Hotel Management to receive colored guests. The chairman of this conference is Mr. Philip M.

MARTIN JACKSON 1118-1119 E. 10th St. Lot Arundel, MA THE NEW YORKER through the motor thus causing overheating and the knocking was or such force, and vibration so great, caused by motor not dying properly I thought I might throw the propeller or tear the motor from the plane, so of course there was only one thing left for me to do, and this I did immediately. I turned off the switch and gildad from an altitude of 2000 feet with a dead motor. I landed safely without any damage to the ship or ourselves. We are just a few miles out from the city, but had to walk about five miles through the snow to a railroad, but I am all together, and I don't feel any the worse from my experience. "When I sent the telegram I didn't know exactly what was wrong, but at the writing of this letter I have the motor down and I have found that the crankshaft bearing is burned out, two wrist-plans cracked or broken, and three cylinders cracked. All of this work can be done by my mechanic and myself, consequently I will not have to get another motor, and this can be done for a little less than I stated in my telegram. "Dr. Baumann, if you people in Los Angeles can do anything I certainly wish you would as your assistance is certainly needed now. It will take about $200 to repair motor, and unless I have the motor everything will be lost because I can't get away without a motor, and the ship will have to stay here because I won't have the finance to have it shipped to Los Angeles. I hope I will be able to complete my flight as the hazardous part of the journey is ever now. "Dr. Baumann, you see Dr. Hudson and Mr. Bass, and Roy. A. P. Shaw. See what you men can do. I wouldn't ask this of you people, but when I left Los Angeles, I scarcely had gasoline money, and you I know how many people were out to see me leave. I started not to "take off", but I hated to disappoint the crowd." "I have the motor torn down and can get parts here at an airport as soon as I receive the money. The sight has been wonderful up to Tuesday afternoon when I struck that snow storm. But regardless, I started for New York, and that's where I am going. Do what you can, Doctor, as I am depending upon you people back there. Hoping to receive an early reply, and thanking you for the interest you have shown, I am. "Respectfully, "AGE FOREMAN. "359 West South Temple St., Salt Lake City, Utah." CONGRESS MEANS LITTLE TO CITIZENS OF COLOR (Continued from Page One) car incident, explained that he paid $2000 in doctor bills to keep the Negro whom he arose from drying. He said the Negro caused his Southern chivalry by inciting against a white woman passenger and defended his opposition to the aguillynching bill by saying it had been introduced by Northern Republicans in the House to capture Negro votes, and that it would expose white women the unmungement of black Hilliard officers to make a peach of two hours in the Senate confined to telling dirty stories on the Negro which brought constant langer from Democrats and Republicans alike. The senate confirmed during this short session Minister to Liberia, James G. Carter. It was about the only constructive racial action taken. The Liberian appointment was one of the few opportunities which the administration had, to play politics, but it turned down the many political applicants including "Bilie" Francis or St. Paul backed by the colored advisory committee of the Republican National Committee. The passing of the 69th Congress finds the political fortunes of the Negro at low ebb, and colored Washington watches it go with a sign of relief. IS THE NEGRO CHURCH DETERIORATING? (Continued from Page One) tenn and lapse from the faith of the fathers. It seems that the offense must be generated by which it commits. If we could take a census of the actual people of the nation of young people in our high schools and colleges today, it would startle the olders almost beyond recovery. This is just as true of the Negro as of the white youth. A deeper indo- trination in the physical and spiritual basis of things may restore the old foundation or perhaps lead to a still firmer basis for higher and better things. This is the only hope. "A little learning is a dangerous thing; mad rush after wealth and pleasure as the dominant passion of our day. This is because the imagination is not dominated by a more fascinating ideal. Herein lies the task of religious statemanship. It is needless to enter into any lord denunciation of the degenerate tendency of the time. You can never reform the heart and character of youth by condemnation; but to do so will show a more excellent way. Have all powerful leaders the ability to do this? Let me now speak more specifically of the state of affairs of the Negro church. I must first qualify as an expert. I presume that I have met with the ministry in all parts of the country as generally as any other living Negro leman. I have been equally acceptable to all denominations and have addressed ministers meetings practically everywhere. The Negro church partakes of the general apology of the times. This is true of the layman rather than of the clergy. There is not an avowed Negro moderist in America. If so, he must need keep his modernity in the back part of his mind; for, the good and sufficient reason, that the older half of his congregation would repudiate him utterly. But the younger generation is shot through with the newer interpretation. There is an almost impossible task to hold them enthusiastically to the same mode of interpretation which the elders demand to satisfy their faith. The Negro clergyman deserves great sympathy in the dual task of such great spiritual complexity. The new issue has little or no spiritual passion; the older element demands little else than passable presentation. How to quicken in the product of the high school and the college to the moral and spiritual enthusiasm which actuated their less educated forebears? Here is the rub. If one attends the conferences and general meetings of our great denominations, he will be impressed with the almost wholly engaged with raising money and secular recreational activities. There is little spiritual vitality. The Negro clergy, except the Baptists are seriously more than holding their own. I have been in Washington for more than forty years. The Negro population has more than appalled itself. The Negro churches, either in numbers, or spiritual lives, are more little so no way since 1839. All are with the same baptising baptisms while the other denominations are in touch. The simple mode of organization is more for this balance of activities in favor of the Baptists. The highest cost of religion of mankind is bequeath to be bequeased by the local We are greatly concerned over the disquieting reports and rumors of misdeeds in high and low ecclesiastical clubs. If these now now bear the burden of moral and spiritual indigencies of such faces of sorts in here the best hope and encouragement in these times must be the work which can be done to break the habit to them, with single hand and man's heart. 15 miles east, from the heart of the city, and just 20 minutes drive, runs on automobile out of Patterson Hall, converts this road into a monument. This has been done, the survey has been completed, a permit to construct the memorials the team trained and made available. The memorials themselves are almost identical. The memorial contains 4541 graves, which are called plots, but the word 'plot' means an individual grave. The cemetery was originally offered to the public under the name *Warranted Cemetery* and is seeking the approval of the public that prepares their plans to the Interdenominational Alliance in which I was chairman of the committee to investigate the proposition offered. Remembering the flambling experiences many purchasers of graves had in Roscoe Cemetery, I saw the opportunity to make sure of a full protection of every buyer of a lot in this cemetery, and at the same time to greatly benefit the craft that has honored me with seven successive elections to the highest position in the Jurisdiction—that of Grand Master. I have always been desirous of a Masonic Cemetery for myself, and those of the craft who might desire to rest with their families in a Masonic Cemetery. I therefore proposed change of name from Paradise Cemetery to Prince Hall Masonic Cemetery, and this of course under my perogative as Grand Master of the Jurisdiction. My proposition was accepted, and happily the change of name did not operate to change the conditions under which the cemetery was opened and offered to the public. It is a religious and fraternal burial ground without restrictions as to race or color, and the change of name to Pince Half Masonic Cemetery operates no further than to hold for the craft three sections therein, to wit, A, "O", and C, to wit, A, "C", and a portion open to fraternities as such, to churches as such, and to the public in single graves, or in groups large enough to accommodate their burial necessities. Made adequate and proper provision for the perpetual upkeep of the premises is fully guaranteed and provided for, and this more securely than that of an cemetery in the city. It will be remembered that the craft as such nor any committee, body or sub-division thereof, has not, nor cannot assume One Dollar's responsibility in the matter of the purchase or sale of this cemetery, or for the upkeep thereof. The Prince Hall Masonic Cemetery will place the proceeds from the sale of 541 lots into a permanent investment of, guilt-edged securities, the interest and income from which is to be applied annually to the upkeep of the cemetery. Should the cemetery increase in size, and from the cordial response it is getting from the craft and from the faith, the fauds will be increased in out, the fauds will be increased in proportion so as to forever guarantee its beauty and its appointments. Already the cemetery is surrounded by a beautiful ornamental fence of an unusually good character; the roses are in, and the curbing and surfacing are now being completed. The landscape gardening has been contracted for the entire surface will be planted in blue grass with in abundance of flowers, trees and shrubbery. Paul R. Williams has been employed and has completed the plan for the chapel, which will contain accommodation for a congregation of a hundred at any service. The contract for the construction of this chapel has been left and May 19th, the corner stone there will be laid. The cemetery has its own water facilities and all of the latest improvements, for construction, for furnishings and shrubbery of the building. The cemetery meets a popular demand and conforms to the ability of every person in the community. Your inspection, your co-operation, and your interest in this great progressive step are invited.

We appreciate very much the spirit of so many of the public spirited citizens of our group who have so nobly come forth with their financial assistance for Joe Foreman in his effort to cross the continent via the air. If successful in his ambition it means much favor for the race in the estimation of the world and demonstrates that the Negro will sacrifice side by side with his white brother in the realms of scientific effort. Thousands of lives of white men have been given that the air might be conquered and be made safe for travel and if Ace Foreman succeeds in landing on the Atlantic Coast truly the race will take no second place in this line of endeavor. His accomplishment will stand out greater than all others owing to the obstacles which he had to overcome in his worry to finance the effort. THE MOB SPIRIT The experience of the Hon. Clarence Darrow, the great criminal lawyer and friend of man, gives him even a closer-up view of the spirit of the mob. He was in the right place to receive it, down there back behind the sun in Alabama, where Helfin comes from, is one of the several uncivilized spots of America. We feel that this first hand experience of Mr. Darrow will possibly start the machinery rolling for freedom and civilization in the Southland.

ANOTHER ACCOMPLISHMENT FOR THE N. A. A. C. P. The Supreme Court's decision this week rendering void the Texas primary law was a signal victory for the N. A. A. C.

WAITING AND WATCHING We feel that in due time we to that the long dry spell has be political trough and we shall be War Declared on Lower Calif. Mexican Land And Development Company (Continued from last week) It has not been nor is it to be our purpose in this series of articles, to make an attack on the Lower California Land Company, but it is the system under which this company has operated, and the person or persons who instituted and help maintain this system that we wish to introduce to the public. There are several persons connected with this movement who are honest in heart and purposes, who have stood firmly by this organization for many years and have put their best, honest efforts to make a success of it, although they have often been foolish and ignorantly led, counting myself among the ignorant class to acquiesce in the many ill advised and ill framed propositions of this company. Too often has the charge been hurled at the Negro race and too often has it been true, especially among the Mistress up that Negroes are gifted to building and protecting their domains. The press is not the place at correct the evils of this company nor any other company. The Civil and Criminal Courts are the places that is where the stockholders of the company will go when the time comes expedient. Incoming back to the audit we are able to the stockholders and employees at large, that the records that Hugh B. Macbeth Theo. Frost J. N. Littlejohn, Louis H. Bentley, Claudius Troy A. J. Roberts, Heard and R. Walker, have been members of the Board of Directors of this company was first organized theception of Mr. Walker, who gave that these men were the real inventors of the most great and that a true --- Romero, a Mexican citizen, for him, Mr. Romero to act as their trustee. Mr. Romero is these men's trustee and not the Lower California Mexican Land and Development Company's Trustee. To simplify this in your minds we would state that the Mexi- can laws are so framed that no foreigner can hold clear title to land in the domains of Mexico. Therefore for any American to acquire a piece of property in Mexico, he can only hold title through the offices of a trustee who must be a boni fide Mexican citizen. The records show that these seven men are in reality, the sole owners of Santa Clara-ranch and that up until the present time no agreement of trust has been negotiated between these men and the Land Company. If such an agreement has been made and not recorded elsewhere Mr. Claudius Troy nor Mr. Littlejohn have ever signed it and therestore it would be illegal and null and void. Now, what does all this mean? It simply means that the Lower California Land Company does not own the Santa Clara ranch and the person or persons who have purchased land from the above mentioned company have simply bought for themselves a great "white elephant" in plain English "nothing." If the Company owns nothing, how can they sell land to other people, and if they cannot secure title to the lands as American citizens, how can they furnish titles for other persons, whether this person be American or Mexican? Personally I have been "stung" to the tune of $220.50 in this proposition in the purchase of stock, but I would like to say to my other "sucker" friend, stockholders, that the records do not show it to be worth the paper it is written on. As previously stated in these articles, all of the directors have not been pleased with the affairs of the company, Measur G. Troy and Littlejohn are much astounded with these revelations and have openly asked for a protection for the investors. I have a copy of a letter written nearly four years ago by Mr. Troy to the Company asking for demanding an audit of its books while there are others who have fought the light of the books with such gritty arguments as it is a foolish expatriate of money lost now.

PRESIDENT INTERVIEWS SUPERINTENDENT PUBLIC SCHOOLS mandate or order issued from the State Superintendent of Schools. Continuing to be stated that: Considerable friction was regained in some of our larger cities because of number of employees allowed said cities for promotion of their work. For instance she stated that some of the middle size cities demanded as many employees as larger cities that the proposition was to establish school districts according to population and number of employees would be granted in proportion of population of our cities. That there would be established three population districts—Los Angeles, San Francisco and Oakland would be district member one; that the next larger size cities would establish district number two and all other Townships would come under district number three, and that number of employees treated these districts would be accorded to an established district employee program, and the same would avoid further friction. So now, you see, "that's that." In conclusion, I was assured that we might have increased confidence in our new State Superintendent of Public Schools, that he would increase much in education and proper protection of Negro children as he was in children of other Races. In response to final question I put to Mr. Cooper regarding publicity of our conference, consented that I might make public and herd our conference and write all he had said. Therefore, friends, we may have no fear to our protection under administration of Mr. Cooper and our agreement of the newly enacted Law of the Florida amendment. (Signed.)

A cordial welcome is extended to all who may wish to attend. A well-groomed personality and a well-groomed body is a part of your cultural environment.

But just a little light on perhaps a dark subject. Los Angeles has been scoured over and thirty red-blooded young men have suffered together, calling themselves The Invincible Silver Fox Club. We have undertaken this gigantic prize and money distribution with a fairness that will confront the public around to name. This great popularity contest, not merely a big money scheme, but a real proof of what can be accomplished by co-operation. The management of this organization says that the secret of our success is due to the loyalty of its members to their leaders, and the stick-to-it spirit. We are ever mindful of the slogan of James J. Walker, Mayor of New York, which reads "Make us your mind what action to take, and take it, stick to it, put it through, and to Hell with four of criticism."

PILLOW'S ARTIFICIAL PLATES Gold, Bridge and Porcelain Work Are known to be the best of QUALITY AND WORKMANSHIP At very reasonable PRICES Our business has so expanded that we have taken over LARGER OFFICES in the So. Eastern section of the city for the convenience of our PATIENTS. We wish to thank our present patients for making it possible for us to do this, and to show our appreciation and acquaint future patients. We will run SPECIALS along with our present PRICES. EVERY PATIENT A RECOMMENDATION EDITORIAL NOORMAL AGAIN The War Scare with China and the complications incident thereto have just about petered out, therefore a degree of normalcy is about to return. LET US HOPE We have been informed that our present State Administration looks with favor upon the proposition to give all classes recognition in the distribution of patronage. So mote it be. TUNING UP Tuning up is now in order as the time approaches for the primaries in May. The searching up of old records and a general resume of the activities of political aspirants is strictly in order. ON TO CHICAGO We regret very much our inability to attend the National Negro Press Association which meets in Chicago Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week. It is, however, soothed with the knowledge that our Managing Editor will attend and represent the Pacific Coast to her utmost. Last issue we ran in our editorial column a resume of business in this section as outlined, and furnished to us by the Chamber of Commerce, which body is the main spring and lever for the promotion of all business worth while. We had a reason far greater in publishing the same other than to desinate knowledge and news value. We wanted our group to read and digest the report and point out just what their contribution has been to the success of this great volume of business which has placed Los Angeles way up to the head of the procession of American cities along business lines. If we have played our part so well and good. If we have not, then we had better get busy, for otherwise we will have no voice in the benefits which accrue to those who have. Fifty thousand people of any group should by all the rules of the game play a stellar role and be in on all movements for big things. We know of no better way to give a demonstration of interest than to get right up in front with the program of progress and avowed purpose that the Colored men and women should rise as business factors in this Community. It is almost unbelievable, the apathy shown by our people when it comes to business. They are great churchmen, they crowd even the great Shrine Auditorium to jazz, turn out in large numbers to ball games and boxing contests, but for business functions they are always looking out the window. The question is, how can we expect to be in on the big propositions of our Community with this attitude so outstanding? This is a serious proposition and we are calling upon our thoughtful leadership from all the various angles to give to it their most earnest and serious consideration. WEIGHTED DOWN Not unlike the plight of the Negro who is pitted against tremendous odds at all times for a place in the Sun, is the situation of the people of the Imperial Valley. Congress it at a standstill in the Boulder Dam Proposition, despite the super forces including our president who is desirous of favorable action for the people of Imperial Valley. The mountain in the pathway of the passage of this bill in MONEY. Seven billion dollars protests its passage, and the great rules committee of the House of Representatives stands still in its tracks. What of the rights and lives of the people, when money desires to assert itself. It is the same old, old story from the very beginning of time when man's avarice for gold would always prove the downfall of the very things which would serve the people. The more that such situations obtain we are constrained to believe that MONEY in government is the weight which holds us down. This means that the plant will be in operation, in a very short time, and turning out the precious metals of gold, silver, copper, and lead which characterise its vast holdings of two hundred and eighty acres. This means a big saving. In the items of truck hauling the ore to the railroad station, the transportation from there to the smaller, and also smaller charges for treatment. By the elimination of the foregoing expenses accounts, the company can extract the values as a big profit from all milling grades of ore. It means that the management knew from the very beginning that there was real merit to the proposition. The claim made by the company of its shipments of rich ore to the U. S. Smelter, is verified by the Smaller return receipts, now on file in their office subject to inspection. It means that the level headedness and steadfastness of object and aim, on the part of directors, and a faithful few stock holders who co-operated with them have achieved a great victory to be shared, not only among themselves, but all persons who have invested their money with the company, in proportion to such investments.

EGYPTIAN TEA ROOM HAS LUNCH CHAT IDEA There is no better time for a social or business chat than at meals. This fact is not accepted sufficiently among our people to make a prevalence of room day meetings, among the various classes of business or the professions, but the general good feeling and the opportunity to discuss business while enjoying a meal has inspired Dr. Williams, new proprietress of the beautiful Egyptian Tea Room, to issue a general invitation to the various groups. In order to meet others engaged in the same business or profession she welcomes all to accept the hospitality of her beautiful dining rooms for the 1 o'clock luncheon, and in order to find the largest number in like vocations present at the same time she suggests the following schedule. On Mondays and all days you will were Chas. Draser, Ipo. Howard and John Smith. The covered Gen. List. The Hawk got Jesus! Wait a minute now, no blasphemy meant. But "Jesus" is or was the nick name for Jerry Cole, said to be one of the slickest most notorious characters that ever ruled as one of the kings of of the underwork. "Jesus" had been suspected for some time but was always "Mile away" when the hawk of the laureate a swoop at him. Mr. Sheliski, one of the city's most efficient sleuth, after failing to hold him once on insufficient evidence, finally got the "goods" on him and Judge Richardson's book was not large enough to hold the charges booked against him. Wholesale depe peddler, with two or more boys working for him, violator of Wright act, and Mann act, cocaine sniffer, procurer of women and various other accusations were hurled at the man with the Holy name. He lives at 927 E. 33rd with a family though he is also said to have, a similar establishment under the common law. The officers said 189 days were not near enough time for a criminal of his scrip Three whites and three colored lined up together below the bar, looking like an equal rights convention. At least the whites had not drawn the color line. The six had been caught in a gambling house on the Avenue playing the mysterious spots on the "Chinaman". The whites Tom is the leader. It looked as though they'd be late for the hall game one Saturday afternoon. Tom stept to the curb and hailed a passing Yellow cab. They all got in. They arrived on time. They were surprised how little it cost. Now wherever they go they ride in a "Yellow" and divide the fare. Five ride for the price of one.

BROWN MANAGER MODERN EQUIPMENT, SYMPATHETIC AND ECONOMIC SERVICE TO ALL. A knock-out in 15 seconds don't give the cash investors in the pasteboards much of a run for their dough, but it does settle the fight beyond a doubt, and it does save the chance of the referee making a "mistake," especially if he is color-blind. Anyway, that is the way Baby Gans figured in his bout with Emory at San Benizco last Friday. It was a great fight while it lasted. Though Just a word and a blow and all it less than 15 seconds of the first round. The rest of the card was fairly good with Perfecto Mendoza against Louie Contreeras and Young Larry in a draw with Battling Manning, a stable mate of Gans and the crowd went away pleased in spite of the quick ending of the main event. Main St. A. C. Heavy Tourney Features Colored Stars Carlo Cartis knows the drawing power of mixed matches. So he has three good colored boys against three equally good white, boys on the third chapter of his heavyweight elimination tourney at the Main St. A. C. Mark House, "The California Bear," and Klockout King is matched with Harold Lesterbrook for the S-round main event. House and Lesterbrook are both in each other's way as runners up to the final and contender tests. But Mack figures to win and leave his game hard-hitting opponent out. We shall se! The semi-windup heralds Sailor Larry's return to the ring after several months rest. He gets a hard pill in Geo. Burman the sailor battler from San Pedro. Eagle Thomas as game and willing as they make them meets Herbert Furelf as good a white boy as can be found among the local bantams. These, with the rest of the exceptionally good card assures a good program on February 19. House is billed to fight Jack Roper on the following Saturday, February 26th. Washington's Birthday! Now there was a fighter. Suppose he had quit when fighting cold, starvation and the enemy that winter at Valley Forge. We would not now be living under our own flag in a land of Radio programs, obbed dresses and hair, private stills, jazz roadsters and air-buses. Do you remember away back when —(?)—— of course you do; saw your birthdate in the old family bible;—white knight and bicycle mea wore black helmet with balloon;—at the county fair. Blondie wail walk; Brodie leap, "One of Cat," and "Shinnie" on the vacant lot after school? Now that the baseball scandal is over, what next? How about a little dirt about basketball, tennis, La Crosse whippet racing, battiards, golf, sprinting, ice hockey, aqua planing or marbles? Have you met Mr. Pat Elziey of Galveston, Texas Hale fellow well-met; owns a big gym in the gulf metropolis. Brought the "Texas Steer" with him. The Nebraska wild-eat waded into the Kansas Cyclone for five rounds at the Olympic. Tuesday until the referee stopped the slaughter. Atkinson was almost out on his feet but still kicking against the match being stopped after Ace had gone to the dressing room. Baby Gans received a big hand when introduced as meeting Baretc the Canadian wood-chopper on March 1st. Baretc was also introduced to light applause. Just another pupil for the "young master." "Emperors of Harmony", the great quartette now featured indefinitely at Graumann's Egyptian is a great act. The personnel is as follows: Farley Graden, first tenor; E. E.

In that though our Western performers are different from the Eastern ones. In the East where there is oodles of competition the performers and entertainers know they must keep their names and faces before the public so when that old and day comes "at liberty" it is not near so hard to get a new engagement. But some of the Western performers expect the papers to bag them for their pictures, pay for their cnts and force publicity upon them. ROUND THE "ROARING BOWL" AT ASCOT Four races will make up the racing program to Ascot next Sunday, treating a 60-mile course for the fastest WILLIE HENRY LESSON NO. 2 Now, standing at the side of the pool press your feet against the side and push out suddenly releasing the rope and straightening out the body. Always glide towards the direction of the shallow part of the pool. It will soon be seen how buoyant the body is. Always keep your hand in front of you during this practice. Now, try the start of a breast stroke. With the hands open, fingers together, thrust them forward back to back and away from the breast in a circle, bringing them back through the water sideways like the blade of a knife so as to offer as little resistance to the water as possible. Kick at the same time, remembering the legs are the heaviest part of the body and kicking them not only helps keep the body afflict but propells it through the water. Later we will give the proportiate heat of the legs to that if he arms. STOP!!!
